"… Concubine Hui?"
Seeing that Kangxi was lost in thought and did not refute, Yunxiu paused and smiled more sincerely, as if she was completely considering the emperor without any selfish motives.
"The Imperial Concubine is still recuperating, and she is powerless to protect Moyaqi. Since the Emperor does not want to see Concubine Wu, who else in the harem can make the decision except Sister Huifei?"
Yunxiu glanced at the warm room, where Yinzhen's rocking bed was placed. Then she turned around and said softly, "Since the birth of the Eighth Prince, he has been taken care of by Concubine Hui. Concubine Hui is considerate and virtuous, and has as much experience in taking care of children as I do. Your Majesty, don't worry."
Yunxiu's words seemed incredible at first, but actually every word made sense. Kangxi turned his finger ring and thought about what she said. He actually felt that this idea was feasible.
Moyaqi was weak and had such a mother, but the emperor was not angry with her instead he felt more pity for her.
He originally wanted to ask the Queen Mother to come forward, firstly to stabilize the situation, and secondly to prevent people from looking down on the little princess. Now that Concubine Hui is in charge, he doesn't need to ask the Queen Mother to work so hard.
Ningshou Palace already has Yinqi, and if there is one more, the Empress Dowager really won’t be able to take care of it!
When he appointed four concubines, he put Huifei first, first because of the eldest Yinzhi, and second because Huifei was born in the Nara clan, dignified and sensible. During the time when the imperial concubine was pregnant, the harem was well managed, and Huifei played an indispensable role... Of course, Rongfei and Xiuxiu also played an indispensable role.
Xiuxiu has always been outspoken and never tells lies. She has never had any disputes with Concubine Hui. Not to mention the affairs of the harem, only Xiuxiu is so considerate and considerate of me and the Empress Dowager.
Thinking of this, Kangxi was moved, like a warm spring breeze blowing across the water, rippling green waves. He stopped what he was doing, looked at Yunxiu with a smile, and his eyes flashed with admiration and a little doting.
Yunxiu: “?”
Concubine Yi relied on her intuition to guess that Concubine Hui and Concubine Wu were involved. In the short term, she couldn't think of any perfect solution, so she just thought that it would be best to solve the problem once and for all.
If Concubine Hui wanted to compete with Concubine Wu for the fifth princess, could Yonghe Palace still flirt with Yanx Palace
Yun Xiu sneered in her heart. Even if it was an illusion, she would make it real. She was confined by the emperor and caused so many troubles. If Wu Yashi didn't want to live in peace, then she couldn't live in peace!
After talking so much nonsense on the phone, she looked very confident on the surface, but in fact she was unsure.
I wonder if the Emperor will listen to my slander...
Then, the slightly uneasy feeling turned into dust.
Why is the emperor acting strange again
To prevent goose bumps from appearing, she blushed slightly, looked away, lowered her eyes, and her long eyelashes swayed gently like a fan.
The palace maids who were giggling around her would be fine, luckily Yinzhen was sleeping soundly in the warm room. If she was seen by that devil, she would have no chance of living as a human being!
Kangxi's smile widened a little, and he thought to himself, she's already the mother of three children, yet she's still so thin-skinned.
Realizing that he had been looking at Yun Xiu for a long time, he coughed and forced his attention to the business.
Concubine Hui was kindhearted and always took Moyaqi into consideration, which satisfied Kangxi. He pondered for a moment before granting Concubine Hui a favor, allowing her to appear before the wife and other ladies and preside over the full-moon ceremony.
"Xiu Xiu is like a female Zhuge Liang. She has enlightened me." After drafting a rough plan, the emperor jokingly praised her, "I will ask her more questions when I am undecided in the future."
Although the tone was teasing, Yun Xiu still felt extremely guilty after she breathed a sigh of relief.
She glared at him, suppressed her guilty conscience, and smiled a gentle smile that belonged to Jie Yuhua: "Your Majesty, please don't make fun of me anymore. Look, the food is cold! Try this cold dish, the small kitchen makes it very refreshing..."
Kangxi felt sweet in his heart. Hearing this, he picked up his chopsticks and said softly, "Okay, I will do as you say."
*****
That night, in the main hall of Yanxi Palace.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor is here!"
Concubine Hui had already let down her makeup and hair, and was wearing a middle dress, looking at herself in the mirror. Ying'er came hurriedly to report, and she was surprised, so she quickly put on an outer coat, held Ying'er's hand, and went to greet her without delay.
"Your Majesty, it's getting late. How come you have time to come to the Yanxi Palace today?" She bowed and said a little embarrassedly, "I was just getting ready for bed, so my clothes are disheveled and my appearance is unsightly. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
As Concubine Hui spoke, she secretly looked at Kangxi's face.
Liu Qin had sent the news early that the emperor had gone to Concubine Yi's place for dinner but did not stay overnight in the Yikun Palace.
Could it be that Concubine Yi angered the Emperor
Although Concubine Hui had many guesses in her mind, she did not show them on her face. In fact, she was surprised and delighted.
Over the past few months, the emperor has not stayed in the Yanx Palace for a long time. Whenever he came, he would at most say a few words of concern, and the topic always revolved around Yinzhi.
Concubine Hui was nearly thirty years old, seven years older than Yunxiu, and the favors they received were incomparable. Although her focus had completely shifted to her son and she did not rely on the emperor's favor to survive, she was still very happy when the emperor suddenly arrived, and then she felt quite regretful.
She shouldn't have taken off her makeup.
Kangxi just waved his hand and smiled, "I'm just stopping here to talk to you. What's the big deal about my attire?"
Then he pointed to the inner hall and strode inside.
Concubine Hui understood, suppressed the slight joy in her heart, and smiled gently, "Your Majesty is right."
It was said that they were resting in the Yanx Palace, and Kangxi and Concubine Hui each covered themselves with a brocade quilt, and there was no intention of asking Shui to favor them.
The dim candlelight illuminated the emperor's deep facial features. Kangxi closed his eyes and remained silent. Concubine Hui lost her smile in disappointment, but gradually relaxed her tense nerves.
After hearing nothing for a long time, she asked softly, "Your Majesty?"
"I came here today to talk to you about Moyaqi's full moon." Kangxi smiled faintly and finally spoke.
Moyachi
Concubine Hui was delighted, but before she could show her smile, her face suddenly changed due to the next sentence.
"Uya has committed a serious crime, and I do not want to release her. The Empress Dowager told me that you have taken good care of the child and have a kind heart, so Moyaqi's full moon banquet will be hosted by you. I have nothing to worry about."
… …
"rest assured?!"
After Yunxiu's careful arrangement, this oral order soon reached the ears of Concubine Wu, who was "confined to house arrest."
Like thunder, her lips trembled, her face turned pale, and her nails clenched into her palms, "How can I be at ease..."
According to the custom of this dynasty, when princes and princesses reach their full moon, their mothers or adoptive mothers will preside over the ceremony. How could there be a precedent for handing it over to an outsider
After being scolded for having a "vicious mind", demoted from Concubine De to a concubine without a title, and confined to Yonghe Palace for two months, Concubine Wu was in despair and depressed for a long time.
Her son Yinzuo was adopted and no longer had the possibility of inheriting the throne. The emperor hated her so much, what hope did she have for the rest of her life
She became the biggest laughing stock in the palace. From being envied by everyone to being ridiculed and mocked, Concubine Wu had experienced it all.
It's not like she hadn't thought about dying together with those bitches, but in the end, a faint cry woke her up.
Wupin burst into tears, her poor daughter...
Yes, she has not lost yet. As long as Yinzuo recognizes her as his biological mother, as long as Moyaqi is there, as long as the fourth son is there, the emperor will always be soft-hearted.
Concubine Wu's hysteria faded away, she calmed down again, and began to plan for her comeback.
Two months is too long. Who will remember her by then? Yinzuo will also forget her as his mother!
But coming back is not that easy.
The people she had planted in the Ministry of Internal Affairs were completely eliminated, and the spying in the palaces became useless. It was as if her eyes and ears were blocked, and Concubine Wu knew nothing about the current situation in the outside world.
She had no choice but to obey the imperial physician's wishes and drink the bitter medicine that could take her life every day. At the same time, she used her last remaining power, thought over and over again, and finally found Concubine Hui, who assisted in the management of the harem and enjoyed unlimited glory.
Concubine Hui had ignored her at first, but suddenly asked her to surrender... Concubine Wu gritted her teeth and had nothing to worry about.
She wants to make a comeback and restore her position as Concubine De, so that she can find out the whereabouts of Liu, avenge Yinzuo, and make that pretentious bitch Guo Luoluo regret it!
—It is still unclear who will use whom.
A few days ago, Concubine Hui sent someone to deliver a message, saying that the full moon ceremony was a perfect opportunity. The little princess couldn't leave her mother, and she pleaded with the emperor for a few words, and the Yonghe Palace could be released.
Hope ignited in Wupin's eyes.
After finally recovering a little, Moyaqi grew up safely. She was looking forward to the arrival of the full moon, but Concubine Hui gave her a surprise blow that caught her off guard. She felt cold in her hands and feet, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
According to the information obtained by Madam Wu, this was Concubine Hui's own idea. It was not enough for Nala to give birth to the eldest prince and raise the eighth prince, she actually wanted to take away the only child left by her side...
What about these days, she carefully planned for the Yanxi Palace, intending to break up the connection between Hesheli and Guoluolu? !
After hunting geese all day, she was pecked in the eye by a goose. Wupin's cheeks turned blue, her eyes were bloodshot, and she felt a fishy and sweet taste in her throat. She fainted in shock and anger.
*****
Yun Xiu never imagined that with just a few slanderous words from her, the Yonghe Palace would be thrown into chaos again.
Since Xiao Shi's baptism was coming soon, she put the matter behind her and concentrated on preparing a generous gift.
At the third-day bathing ceremony, the tenth prince born to the imperial concubine was given the name Yin'e. His crying was so loud that it shook the heavens, and he seemed even more lively than the ninth prince.
Kangxi was very pleased. The prince stood with his hands behind his back, smiling and thinking, Xiaojiu finally found an equal opponent!
As he thought about it, his expression became a little strange.
The ninth brother makes trouble every day, taking apart the screen and scratching the dragon's face. There is nothing he dares not to do.
If the tenth brother is like this, hiss—
The little prince came to his senses and had a bad feeling.
…
The weather was getting colder, and one could easily catch a cold. It was the season change, and the Imperial Concubine's cough relapsed, so she did not attend. The Fourth Prince Yinzhen stayed here restlessly, probably because he was worried about his mother's condition.
As soon as the third day of bathing was over, he hurried to Chengqian Palace. The prince had no time to call him and muttered in his heart that his fourth brother had become much closer to the Imperial Concubine recently and he almost forgot about him, his second brother!
No matter how much you grumble, the most important thing is to watch the fun.
During this time, everyone's eyes frequently turned to Yunxiu, including the Crown Prince who was trying to hold back his laughter, the eldest prince Yinzhi who had a sullen face, and the fifth prince Yinqi who had a puzzled look on his face.
This is because Concubine Hui and Concubine Yi, who were in adjacent positions, had dark eyes and a tired look on one side, while the other had a radiant and bright appearance, the contrast was too stark.
What's going on
The author has something to say: Yunxiu: The Harem Demolition Office is fair and honest, and its efficiency is top-notch. All the concubines who have used it have spoken highly of it.
Concubine Hui: … …
