Chapter 231: The Game Between the Two Sides

Kangxi was also taken aback when he received the news from the imperial doctor, he thought that according to the body of the empress dowager and these superb medicinal materials in the palace, how could it be delayed for a while, who knew that the imperial doctor suddenly came over today, and said that the empress dowager's time was short, and this kind of news really surprised him.

For the Empress Dowager, Kangxi's feelings are very complicated, when a person is not dead, the dissatisfaction and resentment in his heart are increasing day by day, but once this person is going to die, he begins to think of her good in his heart, at least now he does not want to settle accounts with the Empress Dowager as much as before.

He rules the world with filial piety, and now the Empress Dowager has little time, Kangxi will definitely not be able to continue to stay in the Qianqing Palace and approve the folds casually, even if he pretends to be a filial son and a virtuous grandson, not to mention that he has a trace of tolerance towards the Empress Dowager at this time, so he will definitely go this time.

Hurrying all the way, Kangxi, who was in a hurry, didn't care about any rules and etiquette, so he walked directly to the queen mother's bedroom, and Aunt Xiaochi, who was standing not far away, looked at Kangxi's figure, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously raised a smile.

Kangxi originally wanted to take advantage of the last opportunity to let the Empress Dowager leave in peace, but as soon as he arrived at the door of the dormitory, he heard such a heart-piercing sentence - Su Ma, give this bowl of medicine to the mourning family to Concubine Zhao, and you personally feed her to drink. Kangxi stopped suddenly, and if Liang Jiugong behind him hadn't reacted quickly, he almost hit his back all at once.

In the hall, the Empress Dowager didn't notice the situation outside, but Yunxi heard some subtle sounds in her ears, so no matter whether Kangxi came now or not, she was not suitable to demonstrate or provoke the Empress Dowager again, so her tone instantly became implied with a hint of grievance, "The concubine is not sick, and this medicine is still good for the Empress Dowager to recuperate." ”

"Presumptuous! mourning the family...... I'll give it to you, Su Ma, do it!" the Empress Dowager shouted angrily, as if she had exhausted her strength, and gasped for a moment before continuing to speak.

Su Malagu had the intention to let Yunxi go, but unfortunately this medicine was not from her, and she couldn't guarantee the result at all, that is to say, she could make other choices behind the Queen Mother's back, but she would not let her down in front of the Queen Mother, so she couldn't take back this medicine, so she took two steps forward and walked in front of Yunxi, raised her hands forward, and said softly: "Niangniang should take it herself!"

Yunxi stood in place, holding the silk handkerchief in his hand with both hands, his nose was filled with a faint smell of medicine, but what came out was a cold breath that would kill people, "What if I don't?

Yunxi's voice was very soft, soft and calm, and she said slowly word by word, so that people had to pay attention to the meaning of her words.

Aunt Su Mala trembled slightly when she heard the words of the tray holding the medicine, and the expression on her face instantly became a lot more ugly, but she still said: "Please don't embarrass the slave maid, the queen mother's meaning is very clear, if the maid does not cooperate, then the slave can only call someone to come in and give the maid a ride." ”

"If that's the case, Mama, please!" Yunxi had a cold face, making it clear that she would not cooperate, after all, such a thing as seeking death would be accepted by others in every possible way, but she could not accept it.

In the last life, she was too stupid to die so silently, if she was a little stronger, let alone let Bayan escape, maybe she could kill Yun Qi together if she had the opportunity, so in this life, unless she really has no way to live, she will not accept her fate if she dies.

Su Malagu didn't expect Yunxi to be so tough, and the moment she turned around, she looked at the Empress Dowager coldly, and she knew what the Empress Dowager meant, but it was impossible for her old body to pose any threat to the young Concubine Zhao, so she hesitated again and again, and just when she wanted to open her mouth to call someone, her eyes happened to Kangxi, who was standing at the door of the dormitory, and she couldn't help but exclaim for a while: "Your Majesty, why are you here!"

"I originally wanted to see if the emperor's grandmother's condition improved, but I didn't want to watch such a good show!" Kangxi laughed angrily, the whole person's emotions seemed very contradictory but dangerous, that feeling was like the dawn before a storm, quiet and peaceful, but with a hint of the fierceness of the storm and wanting to fall into the city.

"Does the emperor mean to accuse the mourning family? But the mourning family still wants the life of this concubine Zhao today, could it be that the emperor will take the life of the mourning family because of this?" The empress dowager looked at Su Malagu who was stiff, her face was slightly cold, and there was a feeling of discomfort in her chest, but even so, she still endured it, in order to prove her status, and also to prevent future troubles.

It can be said that the more Kangxi blocked, the more the Empress Dowager wanted to put Yunxi to death, she herself was running out of time, and many things were no longer as worrying as before, so when she heard Kangxi's slightly sarcastic words, she couldn't help but want to go back.

Kangxi looked at the Empress Dowager who was defeated but still wanted to be against him, and a trace of emotion that had finally arisen disappeared without a trace at the moment, originally he still wanted to leave a little leeway for the Empress Dowager, and even add Korqin at the right time, but now he can no longer believe in the Empress Dowager and Horqin behind her as before.

"Of course I can't ask for the life of the imperial grandmother, but I will not let the empress dowager kill innocents indiscriminately by her own temperament, after all, it is not the harem of the first emperor now, and everything is decided by the Mongolian concubines led by the imperial grandmother. Kangxi sneered, his eyes swept the Empress Dowager coldly, and the moment he lowered his head, his right hand stroked the wrench of his left hand, and his tone was sarcastic.

To put it mildly, with the fact that the Empress Dowager's life is not long in coming, even the princes of the clan who support her have to weigh whether they will continue to support her, not to mention that at this time, she is working against Kangxi, the increasingly powerful monarch of a country, so Kangxi is really not worried at all that someone will mess with him without a long eye!

The Empress Dowager was stunned when she heard this, and then laughed loudly, but she was choked by saliva in the middle of the laugh so much that she coughed again and again, and Aunt Su Mala on the side couldn't care about Kangxi and them anymore, put down the tray in her hand, poured a bowl of water and fed her gently, and finally let her get over her breath.

"It seems that the emperor wants to ignore the thoughts of the mourning family!" The moment the Empress Dowager was relieved, not to mention that she just looked at Yunxi's eyes and became cold, even if she looked at Kangxi's eyes, it was not much better.

The Empress Dowager's expression of being my sole respect made Kangxi feel ridiculous but happy, fortunately he discovered the conspiracy of the Empress Dowager and Mongolia early, otherwise it would not only be the concubines and heirs who would have been lost, maybe one day he would have lost his own life and didn't know what was going on!

"The imperial grandmother laughed, I just acted fairly, besides, Concubine Zhao already had the merit of saving the driver, and she had a sixth elder brother and an eighth elder brother, and she was not at fault, how could I let her suffer this injustice. Kangxi's calm tone made people feel unconcerned, but his attitude was unusually tough, and anyone with long eyes could see his determination to maintain Yunxi.

When the Empress Dowager heard this, her whole face turned red with anger, which made her gray face look much healthier, but this could not stop the anger in her heart, "This is how the emperor looks at the mourning family, you think that the mourning family wants to dispose of Concubine Zhao all for themselves, but don't forget, this harem of the Qing Dynasty can no longer produce a love species, let alone a demon concubine who will bring disaster to the country!"

Kangxi looked at the sworn Empress Dowager, but he was not moved at all, but said with a sneer: "Whether I am a lover or not, whether Concubine Zhao is a demon concubine or not is not decided by the imperial grandmother alone, after all, in the eyes of the imperial grandmother, even this great Qing dynasty cannot compare to the interests of Horqin!"

Kangxi didn't want to say it too clearly, but unfortunately the Empress Dowager insisted on forcing people to the point of no retreat, since she was dying and wanted to make him unhappy, then why did he take into account her feelings in everything.

"Emperor, what do you mean by this-" Seeing that Kangxi didn't leave her any face, the Empress Dowager was angry at the same time, she was more uneasy, she didn't expect Kangxi to treat her like this, if she really sat on Kangxi's thoughts, once she left, Horqin or the Mongolian concubines in the harem, I am afraid that it will not end well.

The Empress Dowager was angry in her heart and had the heart to explain, but her body was not strong at all, and the result of being too anxious was to faint directly, which frightened Su Malagu on the side in a cold sweat, and Kangxi just sneered, and left Cining Palace directly with Yunxi.

Compared with the Empress Dowager's appearance as if she had been let down, Kangxi's heart was full of grievances, it was clear that he and Yunxi were the ones who were calculated, but in the end, the Empress Dowager looked like a victim, which really made people feel blocked. However, since Kangxi put away the little feelings that finally emerged, it is impossible for him to be soft on the Queen Mother, after all, he doesn't want to be controlled by others, not to mention that Kangxi is still the king of a country.

Yunxi was pulled by Kangxi's wrist all the way from Cining Palace to Qianqing Palace, just the news that she and Kangxi sat in the royal chariot together hit the confidence of the harem concubines all at once, you must know that this situation has not happened once before, and even many people suspect that Kangxi will treat Yunxi special because of her meritorious service, after all, Yunxi has been in Cining Palace for a while, even if the Empress Dowager's illness is really bad, even if she has no credit, she has hard work.

Thinking about it like this, the concubines in the palace suddenly became envious, jealous and hateful, and hated that they couldn't turn into Yunxi and put all the credit on themselves. It's a pity that no matter how beautiful they think, Kangxi doesn't nod, but they can't even enter the door of Cining Palace.

At this time, Su Malagu didn't care about the ups and downs outside at all, she only wanted to save the life of the Empress Dowager now, and she couldn't hate the rest even if she was dissatisfied, this matter was a game to a certain extent, whether it was a game between the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, or a game between the Empress Dowager and Concubine Zhao, fundamentally speaking, it depends on their respective abilities. If you win, it's fine, but if you lose, don't complain, after all, winning or losing has its own destiny, and if you really want to be resentful about everything, they are afraid that they will not be able to go today.

"Gege, no matter what the situation is, you must hold on!" On the side of the bed, Aunt Su Mala looked at the back of the imperial doctor leaving, holding the hand of the queen mother with tears on her face, and said with pleading.
