Female Official In the East Palace

Today's cabinet meeting, Prince Yu Fuquan attended the meeting as a prince who could participate in the discussion, so the prince Yinren and the elder brother Yinzhen were all present in the cabinet.

After the discussion, the prince and the elder brother are going to greet the empress dowager and empress dowager.

The two now have fans behind them, and they form a party. The prince is orthodox and has many supporters; the eldest brother is the eldest son, and there is a pearl behind him to exclude dissidents and expand the faction.

Therefore, even though Hershey, the mother of the prince, is weak now, the prince is not weak.

The entourage followed the two masters not far or near, quietly daring not to make a sound to disturb them.

"Isn't the imperial kitchen a lot of leisure recently?"

"Even if the emperor is not in the palace, the imperial dining room also has to prepare meals for the ladies, only the tea room of the Qianqing Palace has a little leisure."

"Is it time for the emperor to drive to Jinan?"

"If there is no accident in the itinerary, it is estimated that it has entered Jinan by now."

"The emperor didn't even bring a little master on his southern tour..."

"Are you dying? Dare to talk about the harem?"

"How do you say that?"

"His Royal Highness the Prince is leaving the palace, who do you think he will take with you?"

"Women?"

The eldest brother was furious, raised his leg and wanted to rush in.

The eldest brother glared fiercely at the prince, and at this moment, he heard one of the eunuchs ask: "What does it have to do with the female official?"

"Is this your ignorance? You don't know, the emperor and the maid..." He didn't finish his words, but accompanied by "hehe" laughter, there was a bit of a hint in his tone Obscene.

The eldest brother threw off the prince's hand, took a few steps forward, and kicked open the door of the imperial dining room. After a while, two screams of pain sounded inside.

The elder brother scolded: "Damn slaves, I have to pull out your tongues!"

Seeing the elder brother's entourage follow along, the prince turned to Xiao Tangzi with cold eyes and asked, "Do you know why they say this?"

Xiao Tangzi shook his body and knelt down, his voice trembling: "Hui, Hui, His Royal Highness, since the emperor punished female officials to copy scriptures in Yuqing Palace, slaves and slaves have vaguely heard about it, it seems that yes, yes..."

"What?" The prince asked in a cold voice, word by word.

Xiao Tangzi swallowed and said in a panic, "Say, say the emperor has an affair with the female officer Rong..."

The prince gritted his teeth and asked coldly, "Why don't you report it to me?"

"The slaves and slaves dare not speak falsely, please forgive me..."

The prince didn't say anything yet, a figure flashed by his side, it was the elder brother, he first kicked Xiaotangzi's abdomen, and then slapped the eunuch's small pillar. On his face, he said angrily: "Dog slave! Don't you know it but hide it from the Lord?"

Little Pillar knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "I don't dare, please calm down your anger, big brother..."

Xiao Tangzi was kicked by the big brother and couldn't get up.

When the prince saw this, he turned to the elder brother with a frosty face, and asked, "Is it my fault that Xiao Tangzi is my person? right?"

"Oh!" The elder brother smiled sarcastically at him, turned around and ordered: "Come here, send those two to the Department of Prudence and Punishment, and use the heaviest punishment. If you come out alive, Grandpa will never give up!"

"Yes, brother."

The guard beside the eldest brother took his order, and then walked in. After a while, he dragged two eunuchs with bruised noses and swollen faces, bowed to the prince and the eldest brother, and to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. And go.

The prince frowned slightly, but did not obstruct, but said to the elder brother: "It's about the reputation of Huang Ama and aunt, how can it be so big?"

The big brother raised the corner of his lips coldly, "Kill one as an example, in the future whoever dares to make lies, this is the end!"

The prince was slightly silent, noncommittal.

The eldest brother looked at him mockingly, "Or is it that the prince can settle down for the sake of fame?"

"My elder brother and I have always acted differently." After the prince finished speaking, he stopped talking to him and continued to go to the Cining Palace.

The atmosphere between the two was tense, and when they greeted the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager, it was a bit strange.

The Empress Dowager's eyes were like torches, and she naturally found something wrong between the two at a glance, and asked the prince directly: "Yinren, why are you and the elder brother doing this? But there are quarrels?"

The prince glanced at the elder brother, and then respectfully said: "Back to the empress dowager, I did not quarrel with the elder brother, so it was because of the rumor that many people in the palace secretly spread the gossip between the emperor and the aunt, too much. out of anger."

Although the Empress Dowager did not understand the whole story, she linked the emperor and Rong Xin together, and made the prince and elder brother angry.

However, she thought more, the emperor and Rong Xin were killed, and the prince's reputation would also be damaged. This extraordinary affair can be overshadowed and cannot be ignored.

Therefore, the Queen Mother was angry and said, "Is that how Tong Jia and Niu Hulu manage the harem? Call them to Cining Palace!"

The phoenix body of the empress dowager is not as good as before. When she got angry at this time, her face became a little bad. The empress dowager and the prince and elder brother hurriedly spoke to comfort.

The prince said worriedly: "Empress Dowager, your body..."

. Here's your royal mama, come back."

The prince and the eldest brother looked at each other, left with a touch, and both bowed and said, "Yes, Empress Dowager, Yinren/Yinzhen retire."

The two left the Cining Palace in silence. Before parting, the prince stopped the elder brother and said, "Brother, I have a piece of advice."

The prince had to turn around and go back to Yuqing Palace.

Rong Xin was copying scriptures in the Prince's study, and when he heard the sound of the door opening, he raised his head and said with a smile, "His Royal Highness came back a little late today..."

"

Rong Xin paused, put down the brush, and asked, "But someone is chewing their tongue in front of you?"

"Do you really know?" The prince said in a deep tone, rather dissatisfied, "Speaking of Huang Ama and you, a third-rank female official so recklessly, is an unforgivable sin, and he directly ordered someone to take it. Yes, why do you have to endure it?"

Rong Xin shook his head and smiled: "It's not tolerance, I just want to confirm one or two."

"Confirm?" The prince had doubts in his eyes.

Rong Xin explained: "After I found out, I ordered people to investigate, but the words were nothing else, and it was difficult to find the root cause, so I thought to let it go. If there is really someone behind it, Sooner or later his purpose will be revealed."

There was this kind of gossip in the early years, but it was because Rong Xin was in charge of the palace as a female official, and everyone was afraid of her and did not dare to discuss it.

And with the transfer of palace power, Kangxi did not have any favor or favor for her, over time, the rumors will automatically disappear.

Rong Xin did not expect the rumors to resurface here, and there is a tendency to intensify.

However, the Crown Prince did not agree with this: "One power down ten times, no matter whether there is a person behind it or not, and what the person behind it wants to do, if he can only use such filth means, it is not enough to be afraid of.”

Indeed, in the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies are useless.

However, I have to admit that for some people, the means are not high or low, as long as they are useful. This kind of method is low-level, and if you change the object, the effect must be extremely intuitive.

Rong Xin actually imagined several possibilities:

Hennemin;

Hate Rongxin;

Rong Xin has a special position in the palace, and those who lead the higher ranks are not happy;

The relationship with the princes is too good, it is an eyesore;

Dissatisfied with Rong Xin staying by the Prince's side, which is not conducive to some people's actions;

And most simply, Kangxi's attitude made a concubine jealous.

She thought about it, the latter two are the most likely, after all, there are many people with scheming and broken brains. At this time, the trouble came to the prince, and the cause was uncertain, but what is the purpose now, there are some eyebrows.

Rong Xin also did not hide her thoughts from the prince, and after explaining them one by one, he affirmed: "But what you said about 'one power to reduce ten guilds' is indeed a great way, and in the future, we will still act in the same way. You can do it your way, you don't have to follow me."

After hearing this, the prince was silent for a while, and said earnestly, "Auntie, it has nothing to do with eldest brother."

"I know." Rong Xin slightly curled the corners of his lips and said, "Even if the elder brother has a relationship with me, he will not target you and me in this way..."

The prince nodded and said, "Today, my eldest brother and I heard the rumor together, he was very angry, it was definitely not a fake."

Rong Xin's eyes flashed, and he quickly returned to his senses, "You must remember what I once said to you, and don't treat the harem as a simple competition for favor."

"Yinren understands that the former harem is related."

Rong Xin looked at him with relief.

The prince said soberly, "The Pearl family excludes dissidents, uses frequent means, and competes with Suoertu and some people now relying on my name to fight for the benefit of power."

He paused for a moment, then asked, "Now that my aunt has a number, what are you going to do?"

"Why don't I teach you how to drop ten guilds at once in this harem." Rong Xin took out the roster she had prepared earlier, smiled deeply, and said , "The Emperor is not here, Concubine Shu is sick, and Concubine Niu Hulu must be in charge. Take this opportunity to get all these people down."
