Chapter 257: Vomiting Blood (1st Update)
When Kangxi decided to put Su Malagu under house arrest, he had already made a decision in his heart about this matter. Originally, whether it was Concubine Tong or the Empress Dowager, they were all his targets this time, maybe Kangxi would not want their lives, but he would never give them a chance to stir up the storm again.
It is not far from Qianqing Palace to Cining Palace, Kangxi has been silent from the moment he set off, he has called the imperial doctor to ask the empress dowager about her physical condition, and learned that she doesn't know what medicine she has taken, and she has become energetic in a short time, but she is actually overdrawing her life. It can be said that even if he doesn't make a move, the Empress Dowager will not live for that long, and it is for this reason that he finally retreated a little, but he didn't want this step to lead to a catastrophe.
Fortunately, this catastrophe was detected before it began, otherwise it would be difficult for Kangxi himself to guarantee that he would be able to prevent all this from happening.
Aunt Su Mala, who was taken halfway, looked at Kangxi's expressionless appearance, and stopped talking several times, and finally could only obediently stand on the edge of the imperial chariot and follow to Cining Palace, because she knew in her heart that the dragon has reverse scales, and if you touch it, you will die, and Kangxi's reverse scales are the stability of the Qing Dynasty, as for Concubine Zhao, it is not a reverse scale, but it is not far behind, all of this is expected and reasonable. It's just that all this is not a good thing for the Empress Dowager, and she looks at the emperor, this time I am afraid that it is not just as simple as breaking up and quarreling, maybe she will really tear her face.
In Cining Palace, Aunt Xiaochi looked at it all along, and the news sent by Mama Xu was a little unclear, saying that it was to delay time, but after so long, the Queen Mother's patience had been exhausted, and now she has completely lost her dignity and dignity as the Queen Mother, and her screaming and scolding appearance is like a shrew, which makes people frown.
Aunt Xiaochi didn't care about this, and let the Empress Dowager scold, as far as she knew, the Empress Dowager's body had already been hollowed out, and the more fierce she became, the more uncomfortable she was in the end, and her loyalty to the Empress Dowager had long been wiped out with the death of her sister, so she wouldn't really care about the Empress Dowager's life and death like Aunt Su Mala. Just thinking about it, Aunt Xiaochi heard an exclamation, "The emperor is coming this way", she raised her head suddenly, glanced out quickly, and was sure that it was the imperial frame, and immediately turned around and ran inside, and when she arrived at the inner hall, she deliberately raised her voice and said: "The queen mother, the emperor is here." ”
The shouting and scolding in the inner hall stopped abruptly, obviously the empress dowager heard Aunt Xiaochi's voice and didn't want to lose face in front of Kangxi, so she closed her mouth very sensibly at this moment, but unfortunately even so, she still let Kangxi who came over hear a few words.
Aunt Su Mala, who was following Kangxi, was very embarrassed, she didn't expect that she hadn't come back for just half a day, and the Queen Mother would make such a mess, and it was in front of the younger generation. Even though she had the intention to whitewash the Empress Dowager, Kangxi obviously didn't want to listen, and went directly inside after getting off the imperial chariot without delay.
Su Malagu sighed in her heart, followed Kangxi inside, just entered the inner hall, and before she could speak, the empress dowager began to make trouble first, "Yo! The emperor finally remembered the elder of the mourning family, and the mourning family thought that if the mourning family did not die, you would never step into Cining Palace again in your life!"
"Huang Ma said with a smile, as a junior, filial piety should be, but filial piety also scores, should I be filial?
"Your Majesty, Gege is unwell, please pay more attention to the emperor. Su Mala Gu stood on the edge of the bed, and her words in a gentle tone contained a hint of supplication.
The Empress Dowager looked at the aggressive Kangxi and the soft-spoken pleading Aunt Su Mala, and her heart was dripping with hatred, but the moment she opened her mouth, she didn't miss Su Malagu's mind at all, and said directly to Kangxi: "The emperor still needs to give advice to the mourning family now, and the emperor is afraid that he has long forgotten who helped the emperor step by step to the present!"
Kangxi looked at the empress dowager who relied on the old and sold the old, and sneered in his heart, he knew that all the former empress dowagers had hard work even if they had no merit, but according to the situation at the time, if she didn't praise him to the throne, what good could she get, to put it bluntly, their ancestors and grandchildren supported each other, depended on each other and guarded against each other.
If they have been standing on the same line, or know how to retreat, maybe the grandparents and grandchildren can always support each other to the end, but unfortunately their interests have always been inconsistent, one is too inflated, thinking that they can do whatever they want with their hard work, and the other has been suppressed for too long and is eager to grasp the initiative, such two people collide with each other, even if it is not life and death, but it is difficult to coexist.
"I remember the hard work of Huang Mama, but Huang Ma should not forget that this is the world of the Aixin Jueluo family, not the world of Horqin, and not your world, so you can give opinions when I do something wrong, but it is impossible to cross me to take ideas for me, especially without permission, people who are self-conscious, do my masters, and even use the stability of the Qing Dynasty as the capital of the game. Kangxi waved his hand, and in an instant, only the Empress Dowager, Aunt Su Mala, Aunt Xiaochi, and Kangxi and Liang Jiugong's master and servant were left in the hall, and then Kangxi was not polite, and his words were like sharp knives, which made the Empress Dowager's face turn blue and her heart dripped blood.
"You-" The Empress Dowager's face suddenly turned wonderful, she didn't expect Kangxi to leave her the slightest face, and every word she said hit her face, and the face was crackling, but she couldn't refute it yet.
Su Malagu looked at the ancestors and grandchildren who were constantly fighting, and wanted to stand aside without saying a word and learn from the other two to watch from the wall, but at this time, seeing the Queen Mother's face that was difficult to see, and she was afraid that something would happen to her, after all, what medicine did the Queen Mother take to maintain her current mental state, and others didn't know what she was doing, so she had to mix even if she didn't want to, so she took two steps forward and looked at Kangxi and persuaded softly:" Your Majesty, there are some things with different positions and different choices, although Gege has done a lot of things that the emperor does not like, but Gege's maintenance of the emperor has never decreased, and now Gege's health is no longer good, so don't stimulate her......"
"That's enough, who is spurring whom in this matter, I don't think there is any need for me to say any more. Kangxi rudely interrupted Su Malagu's words, his expression looked very dissatisfied, probably afraid that his emotions would get out of control, Kangxi sighed several times before continuing: "I came here this time to make my words clear, if Huang Ma wants to use the witch curse to deal with Concubine Zhao, and then make waves, and pick up the person that Huang Ma likes, then there is no need! I think I have no other ability, but I have a backbone, the more people force me, the more I don't bow my head!"
As soon as the Empress Dowager heard Kangxi mention the scourge of witchcraft, she subconsciously thought that Concubine Tong had exposed the matter in order to protect herself, and at that moment she really wanted to drink Concubine Tong's blood and dismantle Concubine Tong's bones. She has been in this bureau for so long, not to mention how much manpower and material resources she has spent, let's just say that the energy she spent on fighting with her life can never be recovered, but in such a situation, Concubine Tong actually exposed it to her.
Tong Guifei is a woman, she will definitely not let go, even if she is difficult to escape this time, she will signal others to deal with her, after all, even if this harem is no longer the world of Mongolian concubines, as long as they are not dead, there is still a lot of power.
The Empress Dowager leaned on the head of the bed, but the moment she wanted to speak, she was interrupted by a cough, and subconsciously she covered her lips with the handkerchief in her hand.
"Gege-" Su Malagu was taken aback by the Empress Dowager's actions, although she had been prepared in her heart for a long time, but when this moment came, she still felt frightened!
Kangxi's face was relieved when he saw this, he was still very worried that the Empress Dowager was stumbling with him, and now like this, he couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was in his heart, but if he looked at it carefully, he could feel more relieved than worried, probably because the contradiction between them had consumed all his feelings and patience, so when it really came to this moment, he didn't feel sad anymore, but the first thing that emerged was the emotion of relief.
"Quick, please Imperial Doctor!" After a while, Kangxi collected his emotions and turned his head to shout at Liang Jiugong.
Since he chooses to rule the world with filial piety, it is impossible for people to repeatedly grasp the handle of 'unfilial piety', so he will do the superficial work that should be done.
Liang Jiugong immediately pulled out his legs and ran out when he heard this, although it was in Cining Palace, but as soon as he called the imperial doctor, the people in Cining Palace ran faster than him, after all, in this harem, if you want to live more easily, it is much better to have a master than not to have a master, so the palace people in Cining Palace subconsciously still hope that the Empress Dowager can continue to live.
When the imperial doctor came over, there was another period of chaos, compared to the previous unclear words, the imperial doctor at this time did not dare to hide it anymore, for fear that as soon as he said this, the queen mother would have a direct problem, and then it would not be a matter of him losing his life alone.
Kangxi was clear when he heard this, from the scene where the Empress Dowager vomited blood just now, it could be seen that her body was indeed dilapidated, which was obviously a sad thing, but as long as she thought of her dragging such a body but still trying to block him, Kangxi had no mercy.
"Do your best!" Kangxi said after a long time and almost moved the imperial doctor to tears.
"The minions obeyed. The imperial doctor saluted Kangxi, turned around and went out to prescribe medicine with the medicine box on his back.
Kangxi stayed in Cining Palace for almost half an hour, and saw that the Empress Dowager's condition was temporarily stable, so he drove back to Qianqing Palace, but on the way back, someone sent a letter to Concubine Niu Colu, asking her to prepare everything that should be prepared, so as not to have time to react if something really happened.
