[Comprehensive] The glory of the traitorous concubine

After the fourth elder brother contracted smallpox and died, Fulin was so sad that he knelt in Fengxian Hall and refused to come out.He began to clean the Fengxian Hall himself, and did not allow any servants to approach except the imperial concubine Dong E.

The queen mother was very worried, but she had run out of good things to say, and Fulin refused to listen. She could only watch helplessly as the emperor gradually went to Zen and worshiped Buddha, and ignored the government affairs.

Fortunately, the third elder brother recovered from his illness and returned to the palace.He was extremely intelligent, studied hard, and practiced martial arts hard. The queen mother was very happy to see him, and gradually transferred her hopes for her son to her grandson.

After confirming that Xuanye was fine, Xiao Zhang quietly went to the side palace to visit Concubine Jing and nobleman Jin.

When they went there, the two of them had just finished taking a shower, their hair was wet, and they looked at her blankly. Fortunately, they didn't reject her as before.

Concubine Jing combed her hair and said lightly, "You are here. Is your son alive?"

"He's alive and well," she replied.

"That's right." Concubine Jing said with a smile: "If he dies, you should go crazy, just like nobleman Jin."

Honorable Jin stared blankly at Concubine Jing, as if she couldn't understand what she was saying.

"I don't think you two are crazy." Xiao Zhang said with a slight smile, "It's just pretending to be crazy."

Concubine Jing was stunned for a while, then suddenly burst out laughing: "You are right, you are right hahahaha..."

Xiao Zhang waited for her to laugh enough before opening his lips leisurely: "Concubine Jing, I saw you that day."

Concubine Jing's smile disappeared, her eyes widened and she stared at her vigilantly.

"You dressed up like a respectable person, went to Gandong No. [-], and gave the fourth elder brother a bellyband." Xiao Zhang said lightly: "Am I right?"

Concubine Jing raised her eyebrows coldly: "What do you want to do? What do you want from us? Let me tell you, I'm not afraid of death!"

"I know you are not afraid of death, otherwise you would not have done such a thing." Xiao Zhang explained slowly: "I saw you, I could have covered it up quietly. Even if there is someone outside If it was accidentally spread, you wouldn’t suspect me. But since I’m here, it means I’m on the same path as you.”

"Heh, all the way?" Concubine Jing put her arms around nobleman Jin, and sneered: "We are not like you, who can raise a good son and be raised by her in the Palace of Compassion and Ning."

The "she" in Concubine Jing's mouth obviously refers to the Queen Mother.

This pair of aunt and nephew... used to be as close as mother and daughter, but now they are like enemies.The Empress Dowager imprisoned Concubine Jing and gave her and Mrs. Jin the medicine to prevent conception.Concubine Jing hated the empress dowager for agreeing to the emperor to abolish her posthumous position, not letting her have children, and restricting her freedom so that she could only stay in the small world of the side palace.

She is the princess of Horqin, the most beautiful and beautiful pearl on the grassland.The queen mother restrained her in this small courtyard. There was no blue sky and white clouds, no green grass, no excitement that she liked, only darkness and coldness with no end in sight.

She was so cold that she couldn't sleep, all she could do was hug the nobleman beside her, her former servant, and today's only true friend...

Xiao Zhang explained lightly: "The Empress Dowager is looking at my son, but not me. If the Empress Dowager really intends to support Xuan Ye, wouldn't it be superfluous for me to be a mother?"

Concubine Jing frowned, stood up and asked word by word: "Why should I believe you?"

Xiao Zhang pushed open the door, looked outside the door, outside the courtyard, looked far, far away, and asked her softly: "Do you want to go out?"

"Can you let me out?" Concubine Jing was suspicious.

Xiao Zhang smiled softly: "As long as you listen to me, I will have a way to let you out. Not only can I let you out, but I can also let you take revenge."

Concubine Jing snorted coldly: "Aren't you afraid that I'll tell that person from Compassion Ning Palace what you said?"

Xiao Zhang shook his head resolutely: "Don't say you can't get out now, just say that today, between you and me, the person whom the queen mother trusts more may not be your direct niece."

Concubine Jing was speechless, after thinking about it, she nodded slightly: "Okay, tell me, how can you help me out?"

"Didn't the Empress Dowager say that you are a lunatic...then you will be cured from this madness." Xiao Zhang completely ignored Concubine Jing's face, and said to himself: "Tomorrow I will send the imperial physician over in the name of the Empress."

"You think I'm crazy too?" Concubine Jing was unmoved.

"Regardless of whether you are really crazy or fake crazy, at least you have to show that you have been cured. Your honor—" Her eyes fell on Hua Zhuzi, "Aren't you handy? Comb your concubine Jing carefully." Comb your hair."

##

From the next day, Xiao Zhang really sent an imperial physician to treat Concubine Jing and Noble Jin.The Queen Mother didn't say much when she heard about it. After all, Concubine Jing was also her own niece, so the Queen Mother wouldn't do anything wrong.

What's more, now the third elder brother is back.With the third elder brother here, the queen mother has to be more friendly to Concubine Tong in order to enhance the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren.

Today, the Empress Dowager embraced Xuan Ye, smiled and said to Xiao Zhang: "Concubine Tong, you said that it is not a problem for the emperor to always kneel in Fengxian Hall. How about you take Xuan Ye to persuade him? "

Xiao Zhang said: "The concubine is also worried about the emperor, but... the emperor has always been quite indifferent to Xuan Ye, and the concubine is worried..."

The empress dowager's complexion changed slightly, she shook her head, and let out a long breath of foul air: "Forget it, forget it, he doesn't understand the benefits of our Xuan Ye." She hugged Xuan Ye tightly, and muttered lovingly: " Grandma's little kiss...don't be sad, what your Huang Ama can't give you, grandma will give it to you."

Xuan Ye nodded obediently: "Grandson understands what you mean."

Today is the day when Xiao Zhang leads Xuan Ye back to Jingren Palace once a month.But she still led Xuanye to Fengxian Hall.Not to persuade Fulin, but to lead Xuanye to worship the ancestors of the Aixinjueluo family.

When Fulin heard someone coming, the first thing he said was: "Let's go."

After the death of the fourth elder brother, his temper has calmed down a lot, at least he didn't let their mother and son go away.

Wu Yunzhu looked at her apologetically, and was about to reach out to touch Xuan Ye's head, but Xuan Ye avoided it.

Xiao Zhang said with a slight smile: "Don't be offended by the imperial concubine, this child is afraid of life."

Wu Yunzhu's face was pale, coughed twice, but said nothing.

Xiao Zhang led Xuan Ye into the palace, saluted the emperor first, and then knelt down to worship the ancestors.

The emperor said coldly: "This is not the place for you to come."

Xiao Zhang was unmoved: "Your Majesty, Xuan Ye is your biological son, his surname is Aixinjueluo."

The emperor did not speak.

But Xiao Zhang had something to say: "Your Majesty, don't you look at him? Look, Xuan Ye is back, and he came back alive. There is no scar on his face or body."

Fulin's face twitched stiffly, but he didn't look at Xuan Ye, but at Wu Yunzhu, who was leaning against the door and was precariously tottering.

No, he couldn't hold another woman's child in front of Wu Yunzhu, who had just lost her son.

Xiao Zhang smiled slightly: "Imperial Concubine, do you care? Xuan Ye is alive, are you angry?"

"Concubine Tong!" The emperor interrupted her abruptly, and got up to support Wu Yunzhu, who couldn't even stand still. "Don't go too far."

Xiao Zhang said lightly: "The concubine is just asking the imperial concubine, and there is no other meaning."

Wu Yunzhu narrowed her eyes slightly, squeezed out a gentle smile, shook her head and said, "No, of course I don't mind. Xuanye is safe and sound, I...I am very happy."

She said very happy words, but tears seemed to flow out at any time, which made Fulin feel very distressed.

Xiao Zhang said: "Your Majesty, the imperial concubine's body looks very unwell, do you want to send her back to Chengqian Palace? It's too cold here..."

Wu Yunzhu has tried all kinds of reasons to persuade Fulin to go back. In fact, she also knows that the best way is to use herself, but she is too embarrassed to take advantage of the emperor's love for her.So it's only fitting that someone else say it.

The emperor was saddened by the death of his son, but in the final analysis, he loved Wu Yunzhu in his arms more, because Ai Wu and Wu Cai loved the fourth elder brother so much.

Therefore, considering Aifei's physical condition, the emperor finally compromised and left slowly with Wu Yunzhu.

After the emperor and concubine left, Xuan Ye tugged at Xiao Zhang's clothes.

She looked down at him, and he was still kneeling there, looking at her with big eyes blinking.

"Emiang." He asked in a low voice, "You know Huang Ama won't hug me, right?"

"Yes." She admitted frankly, "But Xuan Ye, you didn't cry. You surprised Er Niang."

I have to admit that Xuan Ye is the most suitable emperor among the princes she has ever seen.This is a natural fit, not something that can be taught.

"Huang Ama should love me." Xuan Ye thought for a long time before saying, "It's just that he loves others more."

Xiao Zhang's eyes were sour, he bit his lips, and nodded lightly: "His devotion is not cruel to others. Xuan Ye, it is actually very difficult to be an emperor. It is good to be exposed to rain and dew, but it is inevitable to hurt others." I have many lovers. Love is deeply rooted, and I love one person, but it makes that person resentful. If it were you... what would you do?"

Xuan Ye thought about it seriously, and finally said slowly: "I want to be nice to the people of the world. That way, at least there will be fewer people who are sad."

"Good boy," she patted his head, "you will be very tired."

"Xuan Ye is not afraid." He replied crisply, only at this time he looked like a child.

She nodded in relief. This child didn't blame her, but instead understood her intentions, which is very rare at his age.I have to admit that the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang is very accurate at seeing people, and this child is indeed worthy of her careful cultivation.

##

After returning from Fengxian Hall, the emperor did not kneel in Fengxian Hall, but knelt in Xinuan Pavilion instead.He set up shrines and statues there, paid homage day and night, and ate simple vegetarian meals.

This is the rhythm of becoming a monk.

In the final analysis, it is to escape from reality and evade the responsibility on one's shoulders.

Xiao Zhang has read Qing history, and her favorite emperor is Qing Taizong Huang Taiji.First of all, Huang Taiji's throne was obtained by his own hard work. His military exploits, literary and martial arts, laid a good foundation for the Qing Dynasty to enter the customs, and Emperor Shunzhi could easily enter the Central Plains.

Emperor Shunzhi was both unfortunate and lucky. Unfortunately, his concubine Aiko died young, and he only lived to be 23 years old.Fortunately, because he was the first Qing emperor to enter the Central Plains and live in the Forbidden City, his historical status was higher than that of his father who had worked hard all his life, so he got the position of "Qing Taizu", while his father Huang Tai Chi has been exhausted for a lifetime, but it is only "Zong".

Xiao Zhang looked down on Shunzhi's luck, and Shunzhi himself probably didn't like it either.

Huang Taiji and Fulin also deeply love a woman.The difference is that Huang Taiji's love for Concubine Chen is based on his ambition.He wanted to build a sleeping palace full of love and warmth for his beloved concubine, so he created Guanju Palace.He wanted to create a prosperous world for his concubine, so he fought all over the world for her, going south and north.

As for Fulin, he just wanted to hide with Concubine Dong E among the mountains and rivers, in the warm south of the Yangtze River.If Concubine Dong E died, he would hide in the mountain temple and become a monk.

How similar the fate is.Also losing his beloved son and concubine, Huang Taiji spent his last life defending this dragon chair, but his son wanted to hand over the hard-won throne to others.Because Prince Jane's expedition did not stop Zheng Chenggong, Jinling was about to fall, and there were turmoil in other provinces, Fulin wanted to return to Manchuria.

Fulin loves Wu Yunzhu simply and directly.Huang Taiji loves Hai Lanzhu, but it is complicated and contradictory.Huang Taiji has great ambitions, but he can't do it.That kind of inner entanglement and struggle is by no means comparable to Shunzhi's blind decadence.

Shunzhi was gradually driven to a corner.No one agreed with his retreat to Manchuria, no one took his side.His mother scolded him, courtiers questioned him, and he thought he was going crazy.

In the end, the young emperor decided to go out to fight.
