Rong Fei looked left and right, then covered her mouth with a handkerchief, half-smiling, her tone mixed with a hint of sourness: "Sister Hui Fei is full of kindness, and has worked so hard for the Fifth Princess's full-month ceremony that she even ignored her own health. I am really impressed."
You know, after the Tenth Prince's third birthday, Moyaqi's full moon is approaching, but Wupin is still under house arrest in Yonghe Palace. It is well known that this princess is born weak, so who will preside over this ceremony
Not only Rong Fei, but everyone else was curious and couldn't help but speculate. Some said that the emperor was kind and might forgive Wupin and lift her ban; others said that the emperor might ask the queen mother to come forward and elevate the status of the fifth princess to break the awkward situation...
There were many rumors. But just yesterday, a rumor spread in the palace that the emperor had entrusted the Fifth Princess's full-month ceremony to Concubine Hui.
All the concubines in the palace were shocked. Countless eyes were cast towards the Yanxi Palace, mixed with envy and jealousy, allowing Concubine Hui to enjoy the taste of being the center of attention.
Among them, Concubine Rong, who had no idea of the inside story, was the most obviously jealous after being shocked.
The Emperor trusts Concubine Hui too much!
She is equally dedicated and equally helpful in managing the six palaces, so how come such a great favor does not fall upon her
The phrase "motherly heart" was what the emperor said in person to praise Concubine Hui. Could it be that the emperor wanted to let Concubine Hui raise the fifth princess
Rong Fei suddenly realized that she had underestimated Nara.
It is said that Concubine Yi and Concubine Wu were favored and gave birth to children one after another, but the fifth prince was given to the Queen Mother, and the fourth prince was given to the Imperial Noble Concubine. The only prince who really enjoyed the emperor's favor was a prince. Concubine Hui quietly raised the eldest prince and the eighth prince. If she raised a princess who was born weak and had to be pitied by the emperor...
After Rong Fei thought about it, she became more alert than ever before.
Seeing that Concubine Hui's eyes were dark and she looked exhausted, which formed a sharp contrast with Concubine Yi, she snorted in her heart, thinking with a bit of gloating, who are you pretending for? Everyone knows your motherly heart!
As she spoke, she pretended to be concerned and added: "Sister, do you want to ask the imperial physician to take a look? If you are tired, you should rest more..."
Because of the comparison with Yun Xiu, Concubine Hui was already uneasy. When she keenly noticed Concubine Rong's gloating, she tried hard to suppress the drooping corners of her mouth, and her face became even more gloomy.
Yun Xiu glanced at her, casually adjusted his armor, and a smile spread from the corners of his eyes to his eyebrows.
She didn't want to be a target on the stage, and she needed someone to share the burden with her. Being favored was envied, and having too much power was also the same.
*****
Chengqian Palace.
The Imperial Concubine leaned on the couch, covered with a thick blanket. She coughed softly a few times, took the medicine bowl from Yinzhen, closed her eyes and drank it all with a smile in her eyes.
"My queen, this is the Fourth Prince's favorite candied fruit." Nanny Zhen handed over a small jar, smiling with wrinkles all over her face, "The Prince said that everything in this is very sweet..."
When Yinzhen heard this, a blush quietly appeared on his face. He tugged at his sleeves, opened his mouth, and looked a little embarrassed.
The Imperial Concubine took in all his reactions. She found it funny at first, then her nose suddenly felt sore and her eyes turned slightly red.
She curled her lips. She was really stupid in the past. When she was pregnant, she was on guard against this child. She also tasted the bitter fruit...
Turning her face away and calming down her turbulent emotions, the Imperial Concubine spoke softly: "What Yinzhen likes, mother likes too." As she spoke, she pinched a pill and put it in her mouth.
The sweet taste dissipated the strong bitter taste of the medicine, and the imperial concubine nodded to Yinzhen. Yinzhen's eyes lit up, and his heart was a little excited. Then, his eyes fell on the medicine bowl, and his eyes dimmed again.
"Mother, when will your cough be cured?" He pursed his lips and asked carefully, then became angry again, "Those imperial doctors are all inaccurate and I don't know what they do!"
The Imperial Concubine was well aware of her illness, and her smile faded a little with a hint of bitterness when she heard this.
She had been bedridden since she had a difficult childbirth, suffering from illnesses both major and minor, and had not had a single comfortable day... Now that winter had arrived, in addition to the cough, she also had cold limbs and abdominal pain. Every time she fell asleep, she felt chilled to the bone, and the hot water bottle had no effect at all.
The Imperial Hospital was full of shrewd people, and they didn't want to offend anyone. After taking her pulse, they considered saying something positive. But the Imperial Concubine knew very well that her illness could not be cured.
She saw the fear and embarrassment on their faces.
After the difficult delivery, she did not punish Doctor Liu, but never summoned him again. This time, the Imperial Concubine had a premonition and asked someone to invite Doctor Liu back, saying calmly: "Just tell the truth, I will never vent my anger on you."
Doctor Liu hesitated for a while, and finally revealed the truth: "… The cold air entered your Majesty's body, damaging her foundation. She cannot recover, and perhaps, perhaps it will affect her life span."
He spoke tactfully, but the Imperial Concubine understood.
It is true, she said to herself.
How long can she live? One year, two years, or ten years
After sending Imperial Physician Liu away, the Imperial Concubine could no longer maintain her calm expression. She threw the tea set heavily to the ground, became hysterical with hatred, and cried until she almost died.
But what good is crying? Everything is already decided.
What she should do now is to take revenge! Uya clan can no longer stir up trouble, only Suo Etu is left.
After taking revenge, he changed the imperial edict for Yinzhen, paved the way for his future, and allowed the Tong family to continue to prosper...
When the plan was becoming more and more perfect, the Imperial Concubine never imagined that Tong Guowei, her dear father, was unwilling to avenge her!
I guess her family has given up on her and is preparing to send her second sister into the palace
Yes, what's the point of a royal concubine without real power? She can't help the family, but instead becomes a drag.
In an instant, there was no greater sorrow than a dead heart. The imperial concubine no longer cared about anything else. She sneered and carried out her plan one by one.
…
After Mingzhu and Suo'etu made drastic changes to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Kangxi also sent people to clean up the inner palace. After a major change, the power of the Tong family was greatly reduced, and only one in ten people remained, and the same was true for the imperial concubine.
She can only trust her confidants in Cheng Qian Palace.
In addition, the several secret agents left in the palace by the Imperial Noble Consort's aunt, Empress Xiaokangzhang, were her last trump card.
Yinzhen called her "Mother" and the Imperial Concubine came back to her senses. She restrained the deep cruelty in her eyes, gently touched his bald head, and said softly, "My son, you have to calm down. Impatience will not achieve anything great. Earlier, the imperial physician reported that Mother would be fully recovered soon, but you just didn't hear it. Mother knows that you are worried, but you must not vent your anger on others, understand?"
Yinzhen hummed, thought about it as if he understood, and finally nodded shyly.
Picking up another candied fruit in her hand, the Imperial Concubine asked him with a smile, "Mother, I heard that in the prince's residence, our Fourth Prince took good care of Prince Rong. Yinzuo also gradually became dependent on Fourth Prince..."
Yinzhen suddenly raised his eyes, then lowered his head, and stammered for a long while: "Mother, I... I..."
He vaguely knew that his mother didn't like his sixth brother, and for a moment he was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. His voice gradually became quieter: "... I didn't."
He hated the mother in Yonghe Palace, and he also hated his sixth brother.
That day in Yuqing Palace, Yinzuo was poisoned. When Concubine Wu questioned him in a hoarse voice, Yinzhen loudly retorted, rushed out of the hall in anger, and even developed a trace of hatred towards Yinzuo.
But hatred came and went quickly. Thinking of his sixth brother lying on the couch with his whole body hot and unconscious, the Fourth Prince's eyes turned red.
A few days later, he learned that his sixth brother had become the Prince of Rong, and that the Prince of Rong was no longer as smart as before. Yinzhen was confused and walked uncontrollably to Yinzuo's yard...
The Imperial Concubine knew that the brothers' residences were close together, which was arranged by the Grand Empress Dowager. Seeing Yinzhen's panic, she smiled gently and said softly: "Don't be afraid, mother doesn't blame you."
With a slightly cold hand placed on his forehead, Yinzhen slowly opened his eyes and stopped talking.
I only heard the Imperial Concubine say softly, "I am very proud that Yinzhen cares about his brother. How can I not be happy? I have figured it out now... We are brothers from the same mother, and the blood relationship cannot be severed. In the future, you should get closer to Prince Rong."
