"What are you doing standing there? Why don't you hurry up and save people!" Kangxi scolded without hesitation.

The people on both sides were watching. If this matter cannot be resolved properly, his southern tour will definitely leave a stain.

In an instant, several bodyguards with good water skills jumped into the water and swam towards Wang Ruoxian.

Wang Ruoxian kept thrashing about being submerged in the water, and shouted for help in horror, but after all she was just a weak woman, she gradually sank after choking on a few sips of water.

"Ruoxian! Ruoxian!" Wang Guozheng cried out, clutching the side of the boat with one hand, wishing he could jump down to save others.

While paying attention to the situation in the water, Ma Guan walked up to Concubine Ping, Concubine Ping held her hand aggrievedly, almost crying.

"Sister, it's not me, really, she accidentally fell down..."

"The side of this boat is not low, you can see why she fell down?" Ma Guan was full of doubts, she absolutely did not believe that Concubine Ping would push Wang Ruoxian down, she was afraid that Wang Ruoxian would insist that it was Concubine Ping.

From the dance performed by this woman last night, it can be seen that the picture is unusual, and today she fell into the lake in front of everyone, and there was only Concubine Ping next to her.

Now the people on both sides of the strait are watching, if there are rumors that the harem concubine bullied others and pushed the magistrate's daughter into the lake, things will be serious.

The purpose of the emperor's southern tour was to understand the customs, manage the floods in the Yangtze and Huaihe Rivers, and to shorten the relationship with the Han people.If such rumors spread, this trip will be in vain, and the emperor will be wronged and his reputation will be ruined.

At that time, the emperor may have to deal with Concubine Ping in order to calm the anger of the people.

If Wang Ruoxian really had such an idea, then this woman would be terrible.

"I, I don't know, I was looking at the beautiful scenery on both sides, and she suddenly fell... Sister, what do you think should I do this? If she insists that I did it, then I will jump into the Yellow River I can't wash it off." Concubine Ping is not stupid, she has seen many intrigues in the palace.

When Wang Ruoxian came here, it was obvious that she wanted to frame her.

Ma Guan frowned slightly, and then whispered after a while: "Don't worry, if she really said that, you must deny it completely and say that you hope she will enter the palace to be her companion. You must praise her more and express to her If you don’t like her, you can’t blame her, you know?”

"Although I don't know the reason, I will remember my sister's words." Concubine Ping felt aggrieved.

"People have been rescued!" I don't know who shouted happily.

Ma Guan and the others looked and saw several guards sending Wang Ruoxian to the deck. Wang Ruoxian was lying there upright with a snow-white complexion, and she didn't know if she was still angry.

"Go, go down and have a look." Ma Guan took Concubine Ping's hand and walked down with Concubine Yi.

Kangxi also led all the officials to the first floor, and the imperial doctor had already gone to check on Wang Ruoxian's condition.

"Ruoxian, my Ruoxian...you must be fine. Dad is only one of your daughters. If something happens to you, how can daddy live..." Wang Guozheng came to Wang Ruoxian, crying bitterly. Tears, heartbroken.

"My lord, please calm down, Ling Qianjin is still angry." The imperial doctor couldn't help comforting Wang Ruoxian after checking her condition.

"Is this true? Royal doctor, please cure my daughter, I am the only daughter..." Wang Guozheng was startled, and was about to kneel down and beg.

"Master Wang, you are welcome. Practicing medicine to save people is our duty. Please go to the side to rest for a while, Mr. Wang." The imperial doctor helped him up, almost saying that he was getting in the way here.

The same officials pulled him aside and tried to persuade him patiently.

The imperial doctor began to diagnose and treat Wang Ruoxian, Ma Guan saw that they had a way, so she didn't go up to them. She carefully observed Wang Guozheng's expression and behavior, as if she really didn't know.

"It's so good, why did it fall into the water? Fortunately, all the imperial doctors came to rescue me, otherwise it would have been..." Wang Guozheng was still rambling on, but these words made everyone frown.

That's right, why did Miss Wang fall into the water so well?Could it be that someone deliberately framed him?

The boat was discussing, and the people on both sides were also discussing. Soon, rumors spread that seeing Miss Wang standing with a lady at that time, maybe that lady had tampered with it.

Of course, some people retorted, saying how noble the empress in the palace is, how could she do such a thing?

Some people also said that the empresses in the palace were more arrogant than each other, and they beat or scolded the servants, fearing that they deliberately bullied Miss Wang and so on.

It is also said that the empress in the palace was inferior to Miss Wang, and was not as beautiful as Miss Wang, so she was jealous and killed her...

It's no wonder that the common people can make up their minds. It is true that there was only Concubine Ping beside Wang Ruoxian at that time. Miss Wang couldn't have jumped down by herself, could she?

If these words seemed to come to Kangxi's ears, Kangxi's face could not help but sink, this was what he was most worried about.

At this moment, Wang Ruoxian suddenly groaned and woke up.

Wang Guozheng was overjoyed, and rushed over immediately: "Ruoxian, how are you feeling, Ruoxian?"

"Father..." Wang Ruoxian called softly, and then burst into tears. "Father, my daughter thought she would never see you again..."

"What nonsense are you talking about? You will be fine, thanks to the imperial doctors..." Wang Guozheng wept with joy, as long as his daughter is fine.

"Thank you, my lords, for saving my life...cough cough..." Wang Ruoxian smiled weakly, but finally coughed again.

One of the imperial doctors said: "The weather is a little cold now, it is best to send Miss Wang back first, otherwise it will be bad if you catch a cold."

"But..." Wang Guozheng was in a difficult situation, and today he went out to play with the emperor, wouldn't it spoil the emperor's interest by going back like this?

"It's getting late, let's go back together." Kangxi said suddenly, because something like this happened today, he really has no interest in continuing to play.

Wang Ruoxian was helped into the room, the imperial doctor asked the maid to make a bowl of ginger soup for her to go to the cold, Wang Guozheng kept apologizing to the emperor.

After Wang Ruoxian changed her clothes and came out after drinking ginger soup, her complexion had already improved a lot.

It's just that his face is still pale, and that appearance... always feels different from before.

Ma Guan was stunned. Although the woman in front of her was also beautiful, she was far less stunning than before, and her appearance was also far from her.The co-author Wang Ruoxian was similar to her before, but it was all made up?

She couldn't help but have black lines on her face, and at the same time, she was puzzled, why did Wang Ruoxian turn into her appearance?Do you think that this way you can get the emperor to look at you differently?

Concubine Yi and Concubine Ping naturally also discovered this, and they felt even more uncomfortable with Wang Ruoxian, this woman is just a dramatist.

"My daughter met the emperor and the three empresses. It was all Ruoxian's fault today, which disturbed the emperor and the empresses' enjoyment of swimming in the lake..." Wang Ruoxian fell to her knees, apologizing while crying.

"It's unexpected that you fell into the water. Fortunately, you are fine, so you should get up first." Kangxi's attitude was mild, but his tone was full of doubts: "The side of the boat is not low, how did you fall?"

Wang Ruoxian was startled, her eyes couldn't help but glance at Concubine Ping, Concubine Ping was shocked, is this woman really going to frame her?

"Back to the emperor, the subject fell by herself, and has nothing to do with Concubine Ping." Her explanation, it is better not to explain, directly pushing Concubine Ping to the forefront.

For a moment, everyone looked at Concubine Ping.

Rao Concubine Ping had considered this result long ago, so it was inevitable that she would feel flustered and aggrieved at this time.

Kangxi frowned, then looked at Wang Ruoxian again: "You said you fell by yourself, why did you fall?"

"My lady, my lady just wasn't careful..." Wang Ruoxian lowered her head and said so, but that aggrieved look revealed something else.

Ma Guan shook her head slightly, if this woman directly identified Concubine Ping, the matter would be easier, but what she said made people doubt Concubine Ping even more.

Is a master ah!

If Concubine Ping followed her words in this matter, everyone would definitely think that she was trying to quibble and deliberately shirk responsibility; but if it was said that she did it, wouldn't that be an admission of something she hadn't done and take the blame for it?

"Sister Wang, the emperor is here. If you have any secrets, you can tell them. Don't wrong yourself. Besides, if you don't tell the truth, you are deceiving the emperor. When the time comes, you will not only harm yourself, but also you." father."

Ma Guan had no choice but to speak, Concubine Ping couldn't resist this woman's attack at all.

Kangxi agreed and said: "Concubine Degui is right, just tell me what you have hidden secrets, I am not a person who does not distinguish between black and white, and I will definitely let you decide."

Wang Ruoxian was annoyed in her heart, what could she have hidden?She just wanted the emperor to doubt it himself, and then feel guilty towards her, so that he could look at her differently.

But being disturbed by Concubine De Gui, if she pretends to be wronged and refuses to confess, she will anger the emperor instead.

"Your majesty is wise. However, the courtier really didn't know what was going on at that time, she just felt that someone pushed her back..." She finally changed her words, but did not directly identify Concubine Ping.

As soon as this remark came out, many people's faces changed. At that time, Wang Ruoxian was only surrounded by Concubine Ping. She said that she was pushed, who else could it be except Concubine Ping?

Everyone looked at Concubine Ping again, and Concubine Ping knew it was time to play by herself.

She suddenly knelt down on the ground and cried aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, I know that the Emperor suspects me, but I really didn't do this. I fell in love with Sister Wang at first sight, because she and I Concubine Degui looks a bit like... well, although it doesn't look like it now, it really looked like last night."

She was talking nonsense, but it was precisely this that revealed that she had no capital.

Kangxi couldn't help but glanced at Wang Ruoxian. Looking at her like this, she really didn't look like Ma Guan at all.He naturally wanted to understand that the daughter of the Wang family deliberately imitated Ma Guan last night, which made him unhappy.

Wang Ruoxian almost lost her temper when she heard this, did Concubine Ping deliberately expose her ugliness?

She used to patronize jumping into the lake to frame Concubine Ping, and forgot that her makeup would be messy after falling into the water, but now she showed her original appearance, which made her leave a bad impression on everyone.

Concubine Ping continued: "Your Majesty, the concubine also talked about this with Concubine Degui and Concubine Yi, and the two sisters also expressed their love for Sister Wang, and they said that it would be better to bring her back to the palace so that she could be a companion. Chen Qie stood with Sister Wang before, just to tell her about this."

"Your majesty, the concubine and the two elder sisters are so fond of Sister Wang, how could they push her into the lake? Besides, there are so many people watching from both sides. Please be careful, Your Majesty."

"Nonsense, all of you are acting as masters for me?" Kangxi gave Ma Quan a glance, and Ma Quan actually wanted to bring Wang Ruoxian back to the palace?She really isn't jealous at all?

"The emperor calms down. The sisters said this because they love Sister Wang too much. Without the emperor's permission, no matter how bold the concubines are, they would not dare to make decisions on their own." Ma Guan had no choice but to appease the emperor, thinking that this was not the case. Did you say this on purpose to help Concubine Ping get rid of the relationship?

How did Kangxi not understand?What he said just now was just for cooperation.

In this way, it is untenable to say that Concubine Ping pushed Wang Ruoxian into the lake.

Concubine Ping has been in the palace for many years, and he knows what kind of person she is. It is absolutely impossible for her to do such a thing, let alone under the watchful eyes of everyone?

This Wang Ruoxian might have fallen into the lake on purpose, just to frame Concubine Ping, or even him.Thinking of this, Kangxi was very uncomfortable, the father and daughter of the Wang family were so courageous, even he dared to plan.

What made him even more angry was that he couldn't get angry yet.

But Wang Ruoxian was surprised when she heard Concubine Ping's words. These empresses really like her and want to bring her back to the palace?No, no, it must be for excuses, who would be generous enough to take the initiative to accept concubines for the emperor?

But Concubine Ping said this, which greatly dispelled the emperor's doubts, and the emperor would even suspect that she directed and acted this matter by herself, and then she would leave a bad impression on the emperor.

Wang Ruoxian was a little anxious, there really wasn't a single empress in the palace to deal with.Fortunately, she never directly identified Concubine Ping, and now there is still room for redemption.

"Your Majesty, my servant just said that this matter has nothing to do with Concubine Ping, and I really didn't see the person who did it..." Wang Ruoxian spoke again. This way, it seemed that she was very sensible, as if she had never doubted it. Concubine Ping.

"Well, just like this, the murderer still can't be found." Kangxi was a little helpless. If he couldn't find the murderer, he couldn't solve the matter properly.

The so-called Fangmin's mouth is stronger than Fangchuan's. It is impossible for him to use force to forcibly block the mouths of Youyou.

Ma Guan looked at Wang Ruoxian, and then glanced at Wang Guozheng who was standing beside him. Didn't the father and daughter do so many things just to send Wang Ruoxian to the palace and be favored by the emperor?

So this matter is actually not difficult, as long as the emperor agrees to accept Wang Ruoxian as his concubine, the matter will be resolved satisfactorily.It's just that the emperor may not be willing. No matter how delicious a dish is, if you are forced to eat it, you will lose your appetite.

Moreover, this matter must not be brought up by the emperor, otherwise where will the face be saved?At this time, she needs to go out.

Once Wang Ruoxian entered the palace, wouldn't she be at their mercy?At that time, no matter the emperor or the concubine Ping, it will be very easy to vent their anger.

"Your majesty, my concubine thinks that there may not be a murderer in this matter."

"Oh? You mean..." Kangxi frowned slightly. Could it be that Ma Guan wanted to say that Wang Ruoxian fell by herself?

This is groundless, if you say it like this, you will definitely get the reputation of a harem concubine bullying folk women.

Ma Guan smiled and said: "The emperor forgot? At that time we were all at the highest point, and the wind there was very strong. It happened that sister Wang and Concubine Ping were standing at the bow of the boat, where the wind was blowing, and the wind was even stronger. So the minister My concubine guessed that there might have been a strong wind blowing Sister Wang down."

"Your Majesty, look, Sister Wang is a weak willow and Fufeng, with an extremely slender figure. This appearance, this figure, even if placed in the harem, it is not impossible to be blown down by the wind. The wind blows on Sister Wang's body. Back heart, isn't it like being pushed by someone?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Ruoxian was stunned, this Concubine De Gui really knew how to talk nonsense!Even though the wind on the boat is really strong, she is still an adult after all, can she be blown down by the wind?

Kangxi also looked surprised. This statement... I am afraid it is a bit untenable, and others will definitely not believe it.

But I heard Ma Yuan continue to say: "Your Majesty, sister Wang actually saved the life of the emperor when she encountered this calamity. Otherwise, wouldn't it be dangerous for the emperor to stand there? Therefore, the emperor has no choice but to reward my sister Wang for her meritorious service to the emperor." ah."

"What Aifei said is very true." At this point, Kangxi also fully understood her purpose, and couldn't help but cast a look of approval.

However, what Ma Guan said next made him feel confused again.

"Your Majesty, Younger Sister Wang admired you in the first place, but today she saved your life. It can be seen that women do not give in to men. Such a woman should be brought back to the palace for all the sisters to look up to."

Kangxi's eyes changed slightly, although it was clear that Ma Guan was thinking of him, but he still felt uncomfortable.

This Wang Ruoxian is so capable of tossing around before entering the palace, what if she enters the palace?However, this seems to be the best solution.

Wang Guozheng and Wang Ruoxian's father and daughter were both surprised and delighted. After talking for a long time, Concubine Degui actually spoke for them?

Wang Ruoxian was stunned, she didn't expect things to go smoother than expected, now it's up to the emperor's decision.

"Ruoxian is both talented and talented, exquisite in mind, courageous and resourceful, she is indeed a rare and wonderful woman. However, I can't take her back at will, otherwise, wouldn't it be a robbery of a civilian girl?" Kangxi took a sip of tea , Said faintly.

"Your majesty, my servants have admired him since they were young, and are willing to go back with him!" Wang Ruoxian's brows were beaming with joy. So in the eyes of the emperor, she is so outstanding?

The emperor didn't take the initiative to mention this matter, is it to take care of her feelings?The emperor is really a gentleman!

Wang Guozheng also hurriedly said: "The emperor's liking for Ruoxian is a blessing from Ruoxian's three lives."

"Since that's the case, I will confer Ruoxian as a permanent resident today, and you will go back with me when I am touring the palace in the south." Since Kangxi wanted to save face, Kangxi simply did enough, skipped the promise, and canonized Wang Ruoxian as a permanent resident .

"My daughter, no, my concubine thanks the emperor for his kindness." Wang Ruoxian was overjoyed. From now on, she will be the king and the emperor's concubine!

"Congratulations, Sister Wang. From now on, we will be our own sisters." A smile flashed in Ma Guan's eyes, which was a smile of a successful plan.

This Wang Ruoxian even dared to plot against the emperor, and when she entered the palace, let's see how she would deal with her.

Wang Ruoxian was still immersed in joy, and said happily: "My younger sister has met Sister De Guifei, Sister Yi Concubine, and Sister Pingfei."

"Good sister, get up quickly and come to my sister." Ma Guan beckoned, took a bracelet from her wrist and handed it over: "This is a gift from my sister for meeting you. I hope you will serve the emperor well in the future."

"This gift is too expensive, my sister can't accept it." Wang Ruoxian refused to take it, but Ma Guan forced it.

"This palace gave it to you, so you just keep it. Could it be that you don't like this bracelet?"

"My younger sister doesn't dare, since that's the case, my younger sister will thank her." Wang Ruoxian suppressed the joy in her heart and put the bracelet away.

Concubine Yi and Concubine Ping also each sent gifts, and the four of them were in harmony, as if they were really close friends.

"Concubine Degui, Ruoxian grew up in the south of the Yangtze River and doesn't know the rules of the palace. You have to teach her more during this period of hard work." Kangxi said coldly.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that the concubine will definitely teach the younger sister the palace rules." Ma Guan looked at him with a smile.

Wang Ruoxian's heart was agitated, she always felt that these words were malicious, but there was no proof.

"Please rest assured, the emperor, the concubine will study the palace rules carefully with Concubine Degui."

"Well, let's end today's matter." Kangxi didn't bother to pay attention to her any more, and put an end to today's matter.

After all, he deliberately glanced at Wang Guozheng, Wang Guozheng couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, wouldn't the emperor suspect that this matter was ordered by him?He didn't know that Ruoxian dared to do such a thing.

But no matter what, the emperor has already given their father and daughter enough face, and even canonized Ruoxian as a permanent presence.After all, they are also a family.

Concubine Ping must not be involved in today's matter, otherwise the emperor will definitely want him to look good.

Thinking of this, he knew what he should do.

So the next morning, Wang Ruoxian personally told the people that she was accidentally blown down by the wind yesterday, please stop random suspicions, let alone frame others at will.

Wang Guozheng also came forward, saying that the emperor and the three empresses love their daughter very much, and that the daughter is now the emperor's constant presence, with a noble status, and she will never lie.

Both father and daughter are very prestigious in Suzhou. When they said this, the wind direction in the city changed immediately, and no one doubted Concubine Ping anymore.

Everyone even congratulated Wang Ruoxian for becoming a concubine, and praised the emperor for his good eyesight, picking this pearl in the south of the Yangtze River.

On the other hand, Kangxi could not get angry. He had known for a long time that the Jiangnan area was far away from the capital and it was the territory of the Han people, so there were many dissatisfied people.But it still annoyed him that Wang Guozheng and his daughter plotted against him like this.

"Your Majesty, isn't that the reason for your southern tour? If you find a problem, you can solve it. It's better than some people sneaking around behind the scenes to make troubles." The title is exchanged for Master Wang’s sincerity, it’s a good deal, isn’t it?”

"I just didn't expect to use women to stabilize courtiers now." Kangxi sighed softly, always feeling aggrieved.

Back then when he was weak, he had to bring the daughters of the powerful ministers into the harem, but now that he has the power, he still can't get away.

"If the emperor is not happy, and the concubine will help you vent your anger, then the concubine will toss her as much as Wang Chang is tormenting you." Ma Tuan was not only venting her anger for the emperor, but also venting her anger for Concubine Ping.

This Wang Ruoxian really thinks they are easy to bully.

Kangxi smiled, unexpectedly there was no objection, Ma Guan knew what to do.

The next morning, she called Wang Changzai to her residence while the emperor was leading civil and military officials to inspect the river.Concubine Yi and Concubine Ping also came, they had long wanted to deal with this ignorant woman.

"I have seen Concubine Degui, Concubine Yi, and Concubine Ping." Wang Changzai felt a little weak when he saw this posture as soon as he entered the room.

But soon he calmed down again, how dare the three of them attack her?This is Jiangnan!
