To be honest, Xiao Zhang was very hesitant.

She quickly weighed the pros and cons in her mind.The advantage of sending the third elder brother to be raised by the queen mother is that it can increase the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren, which can further ensure that the third elder brother will ascend the throne as emperor in the future.

But the downside is that she and the third elder brother will gradually grow apart. When the third elder brother grows up, he will be the closest to his grandmother and forget her as a mother-in-law.

So Xiao Zhang did not immediately agree to the Queen Mother.She smiled mischievously, and said with a little helplessness and reluctance: "Old ancestor, the only concubine is the third elder brother..."

Seeing that she didn't agree immediately, the queen mother has already let go, and she just wants some benefits at the moment.

The Empress Dowager quickly said: "The Ai family and the emperor have already discussed the matter of Jin making you a noble concubine. If Concubine Dong E hadn't entered the palace suddenly, it wouldn't have dragged on for so long."

Concubine?Xiao Zhang didn't take this reward seriously.

She smiled and said: "It's okay, as long as the concubine can serve the emperor and the empress dowager well, these are all false names, and this is not what the concubine wants."

The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows slightly: "Oh? Then Concubine Tong means..."

"The concubine hopes that the ancestors will agree to the concubine. The concubine can come to the Palace of Compassion to visit the third elder brother at any time. Once a month, the third elder brother will be taken back to Jingyang Palace to stay for one night."

The queen mother immediately frowned, and she immediately understood what Concubine Tong meant, that she didn't want to part with the third elder brother.

Xiao Zhuang's eyes flickered for a moment, then suddenly said: "The Ai family just promises you."

Xiao Zhang did not immediately show a happy expression, but smiled gracefully: "I hope the old ancestor will issue a clear edict."

The Empress Dowager's complexion darkened, and she said dissatisfiedly: "Concubine Tong, do you not believe in Aijia?"

As a matter of fact, this was indeed the idea of ​​the Queen Mother.The third elder brother is in the Compassionate Ning Palace, if she finds out various ways to prevent Concubine Tong from entering, can Concubine Tong forcefully break in and snatch someone?

"The concubine dare not." This Tong Layue was born very similar to Xiao Huanyun, but her eyebrows were delicate and charming, not as fierce as Xiao Huanyun.As long as Xiao Zhang talks and smiles, he looks sweet. No wonder Emperor Shunzhi praised her when she was drafted, saying that she smiled like Guanyin Bodhisattva.

But in just one year, grace is hard to come by.

Xiao Zhang is still smiling, but there is a hint of timidity in this smile: "The concubine is just worried... others will look at the concubine as an eyesore, and will take the opportunity to trouble the concubine or even the third elder brother. I hope the ancestors will understand the concubine With a heart of pity for the son, the concubine really has nothing else to wish for..."

The queen mother gradually calmed down, and listened to Concubine Tong's explanation, until finally, she suddenly smiled, with a subtle sympathy in her smile: "Concubine Tong, is this all you want? Then you will disappoint the Ai family's hopes for you ..."

Xiao Zhang didn't intend to speak out, but the Queen Mother is a good listener, and she understood Xiao Zhang's thoughts.

"Brother San is still young." Xiao Zhang just said so.

The queen mother shook her head and smiled, waved her hands and said, "Go back and prepare. The order of the Ai family will be issued soon."

Sure enough, not long after, Concubine Tong was promoted to Noble Concubine, and the news that the third elder brother moved to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to be raised by the Queen Mother spread throughout the harem.

According to common sense, if the concubines and concubines were not promoted as a whole during the new year's festival, the emperor should stay in the promoted concubine's womb on the night of promotion.

But Fulin didn't come, he still stayed in Concubine Dong E's palace.

In fact, the emperor wanted to come to Jingyang Palace to have a look.After all, Concubine Tong was the concubine he had favored at the beginning, and it wasn't forced on him by others.Although there is no favor, but there is still some affection.

It's just that Concubine Dong E's fetus was moving that night, Shunzhi was overjoyed, no matter how Concubine Dong E persuaded him to go to Concubine Tong, Shunzhi refused to leave, and instead cherished the sensible Wu Yunzhu even more.

In Jingyang Palace, Xiao Zhangming knew that Shunzhi would not come today, but he didn't go to bed early.She made Lily of Lily light up all the lamps, wanting the whole harem to see, she waited for Shunzhi all night.

Of course she wouldn't really stay up until the middle of the night, and went to sleep when she was sleepy, but she didn't extinguish the candles all over the room and let them weep until dawn.

When Xiao Zhang went to greet Shunzhi early the next morning, the queen mother held her hand and comforted her kindly: "My good boy, I have wronged you..."

Xiao Zhang had two dark circles under his eyes that were neither light nor heavy, he smiled without saying a word, but his eyes were a little moist.

The beauties in the room all changed their eyes towards Xiao Zhang and Wu Yunzhu.In the past, Concubine Tong was the only favorite, but she knew how to behave and had a good family background, so no one dared to say anything about her in person.Wu Yunzhu was different, she was born with a soft and delicate appearance, and remarried again, and under the great favor, she completely dominated the emperor, leaving no way for others to survive, no wonder everyone hated her.

In fact, Wu Yunzhu was as intelligent as snow, so how could she not be aware of the hostility of the people in the harem towards her?She also wanted to push the emperor out, but she didn't know what was wrong, every time she advised Fulin, she would feel inexplicably uncomfortable, which made Fulin really worried about leaving her alone.

This is of course no accident.It was Xiao Zhang who fueled the flames.She didn't want to serve the emperor, but only wanted to live a leisurely life, so she simply urged the emperor to favor Wu Yunzhu completely.

Since ancient times, to gather favors in one body is to gather grievances in one body.

As long as Xiao Zhang does a little bit of harmless tricks, countless people would like to kill Wu Yunzhu.

Among those who can't understand Wu Yunzhu, the abolished concubine Jing is the most.Concubine Jing's love for the emperor was almost paranoid, and she hated whoever the emperor favored.

But Concubine Jing is Gege from the Horqin Borjigit family in Mongolia, a woman on the grassland, she doesn't know many secret tricks, and she doesn't even have as many intestinal tracts as Wu Yunzhu.

In the past, Concubine Jing pushed Concubine Tong into the water with her own hands, so she was implicated in a series of dissatisfaction with the emperor and was abolished as queen.Now, as a waste empress, she still doesn't know how to restrain herself, pointing out Wu Yunzhu in front of everyone.

"Concubine Tong, don't be too sad. We don't know how to keep a man's heart like that Hu Meizi who has served several men!"

As soon as Wu Yunzhu heard Concubine Jing's words, her small face immediately turned pale, two streams of tears rolled down her face, her eyelashes trembled slightly, she looked very pitiful.

Concubine Jing is the Empress Dowager's niece. Xiaozhuang wanted to protect Concubine Jing, so he just reprimanded Wu Yunzhu: "Concubine Xian, you are pregnant, how can you cry when you shed tears? You have to take care of the emperor even if you don't take care of your body." His heir is."

Wu Yunzhu stood up sobbing, saluted, and agreed with aggrievedness.

The Empress Dowager sighed, and ordered: "Take Concubine Xian to freshen up, go out and let people see what she looks like."

Concubine Jing couldn't help but feel even more proud when she saw the Empress Dowager's support, and she couldn't help but muttered in a low voice: "It's only been a long time since I entered the palace and I have a child, and I don't know whose child this child belongs to."

She was quiet this time, only the new queen sitting next to her heard.

The little queen was so naive and ignorant that she inadvertently relayed Concubine Jing's words to the concubine when Bogor's mother and concubine came to pay her respects.

After Bogor's death, the concubine became a little crazy.At this time, after hearing what the queen said, thinking of her son's kindness to Wu Yunzhu, she hated her to death, and thought that no matter whether Wu Yunzhu's child belonged to Bogor or not, she would have to make a fuss.

However, Jiang was still old and hot, so the concubine did not act rashly, but three days later when all the concubines greeted the queen mother again, she broke into the palace and asked the queen mother to make decisions for herself.

When the queen mother heard that the concubine suspected that Wu Yunzhu was pregnant with Bogor's child, she was furious and reprimanded in a deep voice: "What nonsense! Wu Yunzhu has been in the palace for some time, how could she be pregnant with Bogor's posthumous son? "

In fact, the concubine was Lin Danhan's Fujin in the past, and she also remarried to the Qing Dynasty. At that time, Lin Danhan also had a posthumous child... They all knew very well that the posthumous child was very possible, and based on the emperor's love for Wu Yunzhu , it is very likely to help her conceal it.Or maybe Wu Yunzhu had a deep scheming mind and tried every means to hide it from the emperor.

Everyone cast suspicious eyes on Wu Yunzhu's face.

Wu Yunzhu is different from the queen mother and concubine, she is not Mongolian, her mother is a gentle Jiangnan woman, who taught Wu Yunzhu to read poetry and books, abide by etiquette, righteousness and shame since childhood, in Wu Yunzhu's heart, she never thought of remarrying.It can be said that her previous marriage to Bogor was the biggest stain on her after entering the palace.

In the past, Bogor fell in love with her at first sight, and tried every means to ask the emperor to ask her to be a Fujin.After the two got married, Bogor doted on her in every possible way and made love every night. To be honest, the possibility of conceiving a child was still very high.

They even had sex the night before Bogor committed suicide.

In fact, even Wu Yunzhu didn't dare to make sure who the child belonged to.Because within a few days after Bogor's death, she and Emperor Shunzhi became husband and wife.

She was ashamed of Bogor in her heart, but she felt that Bogor owed her?At the beginning, she and Emperor Shunzhi were in love, why did she insert a Bogor to block her good marriage with the emperor?

No matter what happened in the past, Wu Yunzhu knew that she absolutely could not admit what the concubine said.

So she acted confidently, insisting that she was the mother of the child, and she knew best whose child it was.

Under everyone's contemptuous eyes, amidst the voices of suspicion, Wu Yunzhu bit her lip, not daring to let herself cry again.That kind of attitude really makes me feel pity.

Xiao Zhang looked at her as if looking at a stranger.

In fact, Xiao Zhang wanted Fulin to taste what it was like to be a happy father, but speaking of it, even though Wu Yunzhu and Bogor had intercourse many times, the child she was pregnant was indeed Fulin's.

However, Xiao Zhang used some tricks to bring Wu Yunzhu's pregnancy a little earlier.

She did this not to make others wonder who Wu Yunzhu's child is, but to let the queen mother realize how difficult Wu Yunzhu's favor is, so that she can compare the cuteness of Concubine Tong and the third elder brother, and make the queen mother feel that Concubine Tong's mother and child It is more suitable for her to use.

You must know that the queen is just an ignorant puppet now, and all major affairs in the harem are controlled by the queen mother.Only by not making enemies with the queen mother can we live well.

Of course, there is another way, which is to overthrow the Queen Mother.

Wu Yunzhu couldn't do this, and Xiao Zhang couldn't do it either.So she chose to temporarily compromise with the Queen Mother, but she did not relax her vigilance at all.

Because she suspected... the death of Concubine Tong in history was related to this kind-hearted Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang.
