Retirement in Qing Chuanwen

"...I had a dream right before the draft."

If it's possible, Xuangui really doesn't want to tell about her dream about the future, after all she is not really that stupid.

If you tell the Empress Dowager immediately after dreaming of the next day, then in the eyes of the Empress Dowager, she will at least get a loyal impression.

But now it has been dragging on for so long, and she and Jinghao have formed a relationship early. If she speaks out now, it will inevitably make people think that she deliberately made up some random things because she was jealous of Jinghao. He wronged her by speaking out and poured dirty water on her.

So Xuan Gui originally planned to bring this secret into the coffin. After all, in her plan, she should have eliminated the serious trouble in her heart and got her wish.

In the end, because the reality was unsatisfactory, she lifted a rock and shot herself in the foot——

Not only failed to eradicate Jinghao, but caused a lot of trouble for himself.

So under such circumstances, Xuan Gui, who couldn't think of any other way to get himself out, had to tell the Empress Dowager about the dream he had before the draft.

But of course, since you want to talk about it, Xuan Guiren will not simply tell the Empress Dowager everything you saw in your dream. After all, such an opportunity is rare. The torment and aggrieved in the sky.

When she told the empress dowager about her dream, she tried her best to exaggerate the degree of Jinghao's favor in Kangxi. She knew that because Emperor Taizong favored Hai Lanzhu, and because of Dong E's, Shizuo had conflicts with his biological mother repeatedly. Well, the Empress Dowager would definitely not like those foxes who charm the emperor.

So Xuan Gui originally thought that if he said so, the Empress Dowager would at least look ugly even if she wasn't furious, but when she listened to what she said, her expression remained calm.

Until Xuangui mentioned the prince she saw in the dream, the Empress Dowager's eyes changed slightly.

"Old Ancestor, the prince in the dream is beautiful and beautiful, with both civil and military skills. He is the prince of a country taught by the emperor. Originally, he should have successfully ascended the throne after a hundred years. However, because the emperor favored the prince from Dai Jia's family, he became the crown prince. Ruthlessly abolished the crown prince's position as the crown prince, and imprisoned him in Xian'an Palace..."

"Presumptuous! What nonsense are you talking about!"

The Empress Dowager interrupted Xuangui before she finished speaking. After all, she was a woman who had assisted two emperors. The Empress Dowager, who is usually calm, has an awe-inspiring aura, let alone her at this moment. flew into a rage—

It's like an old female wolf still showed her fangs and claws when she learned that her cub had an accident.

Xuangui is just a ten-year-old girl, plus she was favored at home before entering the palace, and after entering the palace, relying on the protection of the Empress Dowager, she has not experienced many tragic palace battles, so she has not experienced anything at all. After being reprimanded by the empress dowager, she was completely frightened.

She couldn't say a word that she wanted to say.

"Old, old ancestor..."

Under the eyes of the Empress Dowager, Xuan Gui's heart was beating like a beating, and his face was so pale that there was no blood.

"It seems that the Ai family really indulged you too much, that's why they indulged you so ignorantly!" The empress dowager hadn't been so angry for a long time, even if she was angry with Kangxi because of Jing's good things before, she didn't As for being so angry.

"You want to be favored, you want to frame the concubine, the Ai family can turn a blind eye to these things, but now you even dare to make up the prince, do you really think that the Ai family will not abolish you ?”

If you want to ask who the empress dowager values ​​most now, then No.1 must be Kangxi, and No.2 is the prince, but if you want to ask who the empress dowager loves the most, then No.1 must be the prince, even Kangxi. Can't compare.

After all, the prince is still young, and he lost his mother early. Although there are many concubine mothers, they can hardly find one who can take care of him sincerely. Give each other to take care of.

After all, people will always change, and the Empress Dowager herself is almost 70 years old, so she can't say how long she can live.

So the Empress Dowager was worried, if one day she really left, how many people in the palace would treat the prince sincerely?

As for Kangxi, to be honest, the Empress Dowager is not so at ease. He is indeed like a jewel to the prince now, but he will have more children and more women in the future. Being occupied by thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, if there are a few more people in her heart, her Baocheng will definitely have no place to stand.

But the empress dowager was worried, but she never thought that her grandson would abolish the prince for another woman's child!Compared with this reason, the Empress Dowager believes that if this day really comes, Kangxi is more likely to attack the prince because he threatened his throne.

Thinking of this, the empress dowager's face became even more ugly.

Xuangui didn't know what the empress dowager was thinking, let alone why things turned out like this. After the ancestors heard what she said, even if they were going to be angry, they should have directed at Dai Jia, the emperor. ?

Why was the anger directed at her instead?

"Old ancestor, I don't have one!" Xuan Gui didn't care about his embarrassment at this time, and hurriedly said to the Empress Dowager, "Even if I borrow the courage of my concubine, my concubine would not dare to make up His Highness the Crown Prince."

The prince in the dream was indeed abolished, but the reason for his abolition was not because Kangxi was partial to Jinghao's offspring.

"You said the prince will be abolished in the future because the emperor favors Dai Jia's heir?" the empress dowager asked.

"Yes."

"Then why didn't you tell the Ai family until now?"

The Empress Dowager sneered. When Taizong passed away, her son Fulin was only the ninth son of Taizong, so he was not favored, especially when he was born when Hai Lanzhu's beloved son passed away. The empress dowager walked on thin ice, for fear that her child would become a thorn in the side of others if she was not careful.

But even so, when Emperor Taizong passed away, it was her not-favored son who took the throne, and it was her concubine Zhuang, who was also not-favored, who was honored as the Queen Mother.

To be able to fight a bloody way under such treacherous circumstances, the Empress Dowager naturally has the heart and mind that ordinary people do not have.

Even though she was furious at Xuan Guiren's words, she still retained a trace of reason and grasped the loopholes in Xuan Guiren's words.

"Obviously you hate Dai Jiashi so much, if things are really as you said, why did you not tell Aijia until now?"

The Empress Dowager is not stupid, let alone whether what Xuan Gui said is true, even if it is true, there must be a lot of water in it.

Otherwise, even if she didn't tell her about it immediately, she should have told her about it when she was warned not to do anything to Dai Jiashi.

But Mrs. Xuangui didn't, so it can be seen that she still played tricks on her.

Whether a person is stupid or not, the Empress Dowager doesn't care too much, but if she is stupid and has to do it in front of her, then she thinks it's really ridiculous.

"I..." Xuan Gui opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.

"You kept complaining about Baocheng's grievances, but in the end you wanted to get rid of Dai Jiashi, but you stretched out your hand to the servants around Baocheng." The Empress Dowager said, "You don't know that if this matter gets out, you will be punished for Baocheng. Reputation gets in the way, but you did it anyway."

"I don't believe you, Aijia, you don't know what your purpose of entering the palace is to bring Horqin closer to the Qing Dynasty, but you used such low-handed means to concoct such a big show. You think the emperor is too kind to Horqin So, do you want to sabotage this Manchu-Mongolian marriage?"

The empress dowager is not only disappointed with Xuangui now, when she came up with such a way to frame Dai Jia, didn't she think about how much harm it would bring to the crown prince and Horqin once the matter was revealed?

At the beginning, Fulin had caused such a scandal that the royal family was ashamed, but now if there is another scene where the concubine Hongxing is cheating, where will the Aixinjueluo family's face be put?

To be honest, if Mrs. Xuan Gui gritted her teeth and killed Jing Hao directly, the Empress Dowager would not be so angry, but she wanted to get rid of Jing Hao and didn't want to dirty her hands. Gun makes.

The Empress Dowager shook her head, thinking she was really stupid.

Even though Xuan Guiren didn't have mind reading skills, the words of the Empress Dowager were enough to make her panic. Thinking of her previous warning, Xuan Gui opened her mouth to beg for mercy, but unfortunately the Empress Dowager no longer wanted to hear what she had to say.

"Go down." The Empress Dowager said, "Because of Horqin's face, the emperor has already promised not to make this matter public, but you can just sit in your Xianfu Palace and think about it behind closed doors."

When Xuangui heard it, he was relieved at first, after all, it was only a grounding. As long as the empress dowager and the emperor didn't pursue it, the grounding would be grounded, but seeing that the empress dowager didn't say how long she would stay behind closed doors in Xianfu Palace, she mentioned again a heart.

You must know that confinement is not terrible, but indefinite confinement is terrible. There are so many concubines in the palace, and there is another general election every three years. She is not a favored person. Forgot about her long ago.

But Mrs. Xuangui thought about it, she is the grand-niece of the empress dowager, the cousin of the emperor, even if she was grounded, she couldn't really be grounded for too long. After all, her surname is Borzigit, which represents Horqin's face .

Thinking about it this way, Xuangui's panic reduced a lot. Seeing the Empress Dowager's face was ugly, she didn't dare to stay longer in the Compassionate Ning Palace, so she hurriedly left.

It's just that after leaving the Compassionate Ning Palace, Xuan Gui really couldn't figure out why things turned out like this. Obviously most of what she said was the truth, why didn't the Empress Dowager believe it?

In fact, the Empress Dowager didn't believe it at all, but she half-believed what she said, because it's hard to say something like a dream, and the Empress Dowager couldn't verify it.

After all, only Xuangui had this dream, but...

"If what she said is true, then it can explain why she targeted Dai Jia as soon as she entered the palace." The empress dowager originally couldn't understand the deep hatred between Xuangui and Jinghao, and it was worth her persistence trouble her.

You must know that in a place like the Forbidden City, there are no permanent friends and no permanent enemies. Everyone hates each other to the bone because of the slightest thing.

"Master, do you believe what Xuangui said?" This is the first time Lagu Su Ma has heard that someone can dream about the future, but Xuangui's dreams are all related to Dai Guiren, which makes them want to verify There is no way to verify it.

So La Aunt Su Ma didn't really believe what Xuan Gui said, but felt that she probably made it up on purpose to get rid of the crime.

"It doesn't matter whether Aijia believes it or not. It doesn't matter whether what she said is true or not. The important thing is that she reminded Aijia." The Empress Dowager looked into the distance, "If there is no concubine in this harem willing to give If Baocheng talks, the child will suffer in the future."

The Empress Dowager is not unaware of how powerful a woman's pillow wind is. In the future, if someone speaks bad things about the prince in the ear of the emperor, the emperor will not believe it at first, but who knows if it will be heard in the emperor's ear? Did he plant a seed of doubt in his heart?

When that seed slowly grows into a towering tree, it will be difficult for the prince to protect himself.

"Master, don't think that way." Aunt Su Mala said, "I have seen with my own eyes how much the Emperor loves His Highness the Crown Prince. Mr. Xuangui wants to use your hands to dispose of Mr. Dai Gui, so he said such words on purpose. .”

If Lagu Lagu Su Ma didn't believe Xuan Guiren's words at the beginning because she thought such things were nonsense, then she didn't believe it now because of the Empress Dowager.

If in the future the relationship between Kangxi and the crown prince is really in dire straits, as Xuangui said, and father and son turned against each other, how sad will the empress dowager be?

Moreover, when Mr. Xuangui mentioned that the emperor abolished the crown prince, he did not mention the empress dowager, which meant that she was no longer around at that time.

Although Aunt Su Ma knows that people are always mortal, and the Empress Dowager is considered to have a long life at this age, but even if she begged and hoped, she also hoped that her master would live a long life.

"Whether it's intentional or unintentional, now Ai's family finally understands why Ai's family has paved the way for her but she is still unwilling to leave." The Empress Dowager thought that Xuan Gui was born because of her affection for Kangxi. She had a delusion, but now it seems that it is not always the case. She was too big-hearted from the beginning.

So even if Bao Chenggui became the crown prince, her little concubine would not want to get close to him and curry favor with him, just because she already knew that he would be deposed in the future, so she was too lazy to waste time on him.

To be honest, the Empress Dowager should have been angry, but for some reason, she suddenly smiled.

"Master?" Aunt Su Ma looked at the Empress Dowager, she didn't think such a thing was enough to drive the master mad.

"It's nothing, Aijia just suddenly discovered that this grandniece of Aijia is really a complete idiot." The Empress Dowager said, "Let's just assume that she really had this dream, but it seems that Baocheng is still unlucky." For a long time, she gave up her immediate interests for something that she didn't know would happen in the future..."

As she spoke, the Empress Dowager couldn't help shaking her head, and Lagu Su Ma, who understood what she meant, was also shaking her head secretly. Indeed, if Xuan Gui was smart, even if she had such a dream, she would still wake up from the dream. In the end, she should still get close to the prince and please him.

Because no matter what happens in the future, at least the prince is still deeply loved by the emperor and the empress dowager. If Mrs. Xuangui follows the path paved by the empress dowager, she will not only get close to the prince, but also please the emperor and empress dowager. Empress Dowager, if there is no accident in the future, she will not have to worry about it in her life.

The result is now a mess...

A good hand was played poorly.

Don't think that the Empress Dowager just punished Xuangui, but Lagu Su Ma has been serving her for so many years, and she has known her master's temperament for a long time. She will never let Xuangui easily this time.

Even though she didn't make up the crown prince, it is true that she stretched her hand into Yuqing Palace, which completely violated the taboo of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.

Although the Empress Dowager was so angry with Xuan Gui just now, she didn't get angry anymore after she made a decision in her heart. After all, being angry hurts her body. He was pissed off by his own son.

Now the Empress Dowager is thinking about another thing: "Su Mo'er, do you think Baocheng is really that close to Dai Jiashi?"

She wondered if what the emperor said just now was true. He said that the reason why he came to Jingxiu Palace before was because Baocheng always secretly went to Jingxiu Palace to find Jinghao.

To protect Baocheng, he sent someone to investigate Dai Jia, and he also went to Jingxiu Palace to find out. As a result, he fell in love with Dai Jia.

The empress dowager knew that Kangxi did not pull the little prince out to give Jinghao a bargaining chip, but explained to her that part of the reason why he valued Jinghao so much was because of the little prince.

Not to mention whether Kangxi's explanation is true, but at least he is willing to explain, so the Empress Dowager will not be so angry. After all, after experiencing Fulin's incident, the Empress Dowager's requirements have been lowered.

At the same time, Kangxi also explained to her why he recognized the "child" in Jinghao's stomach, partly because he wanted to take Jinghao out of the cold palace, and partly because he didn't want any scandals in the palace.

So after Kangxi's explanation and bowing her head, the empress dowager's anger towards him also dissipated a lot. Xuangui believed that she hated the favored concubine because of Hai Lanzhu and Dong E's affairs, so she was wrong. What the Empress Dowager cares about is Kangxi's attitude.

As long as her grandson doesn't know how to love beauties and not love the country, then how can the Empress Dowager care who he favors?

"This..." La Aunt Su Ma hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Recently, this servant has vaguely heard that the Crown Prince and Dai Guiren are indeed very close."

Not to mention running to give Jinghao gifts before, the little prince has also been there a few times later, and what is different from sneaking before is that now he is aboveboard.

So slowly, everyone in the palace should know, after all their eyes and ears are not for display.

"Why didn't anyone tell Aijia?" The empress dowager frowned, obviously upset, she protected the little prince as an eyeball, but he got close to Jinghao under her nose, which made the empress dowager feel kind The feeling of being kept in the dark.

"Now...forget it, I will invite Mrs. Dai Jia to the Compassionate Palace tomorrow." The Empress Dowager said.

"Yes." Aunt Su Ma replied.

……

But Jing Hao didn't know that she would be summoned by the Empress Dowager tomorrow, she only knew that the person who designed to frame her had finally been found.

When she knew that this matter had something to do with Mrs. Xuangui, Jing Hao was not surprised at all, but when she learned that it was related to Nanny Yu, she was really surprised.

"Isn't Nanny Yu the prince's servant?" Jinghao really couldn't figure it out, "Why did she join forces with Xuangui to drug me?"

Kangxi simply explained it to Jinghao. Although she and Nanny Yu had never met before, in fact she had a deep hatred for her: "Mr. Yu has never liked cats and dogs. I asked someone to investigate Only then did I know that she has a very bad attitude towards Xiaolu in private, and the servants of Yuqing Palace dare not say anything because she is Baocheng's nanny."

"In addition, Yu Shi has always been very wary of Baocheng getting close to the concubines in the harem, so when she learned from Xuan Guiren that Baocheng often went to find you in private, the two of them colluded together and worked hand in hand. gone."

Jing Hao's jaw almost dropped when she heard it, it's okay to say that she deserves to be loved and hated, because Kangxi is indeed very kind to her, but she was locked in the cold palace and didn't take half a step out of the gate, so she could be drawn to Madam Yu Mammy's hatred...

Tsk, that's outrageous.

"No wonder, I said that when the crown prince brought her to my small courtyard twice, why did she treat me with different noses and different eyes? I dare say that she has long remembered to hate me."

Before Jinghao had a good relationship with the little prince, and after Mammy Yu came here twice, she didn't come with the little prince again, so Jinghao didn't take it seriously.

In the end, who knew that Kangxi threw a thunder at her today, but Madam Yu is just a slave, does she really have the guts to join forces with Xuangui?

"I've had someone check it carefully, and it's indeed Yu's own assertion." As if he understood Jinghao's question, Kangxi said, "At first, I also doubted whether there was a Hesheli family here. Handwriting."

But it turned out that the Hesheli family really didn't know this time.

Jinghao gave Kangxi a strange look. She had doubted for a little while whether Nanny Yu might just follow orders, but she never expected that Kangxi would take the initiative to mention the Hesheli family.

After all, that is the little prince's mother clan and also his wife clan.

"What are you doing looking at me like that?" Kangxi asked.

"I think it's outrageous." Jinghao blinked her eyes and said, "Did the emperor take so long to find out that there is such a scumbag around the prince?"

Today, Mammy Yu used the little prince's hand to prescribe medicine to her. Will she use the little prince's hand to prey on other people one day?And is it possible that this other person is Kangxi or the Empress Dowager?

It's impossible to tell.

Thinking about it this way, Jing Hao felt that the little prince was really pitiful, even if the three giants in the palace were protecting him, there would inevitably be omissions, after all, the tiger still had time to nap.

"This is indeed my negligence." Kangxi did not deny, "The Hesheli family has already found an excuse to transfer Mrs. Yu away, and now it is Mrs. Wen who is serving Baocheng. She used to be one of Baocheng's nurses. .”

But because the little prince was closest to the nanny back then, it wasn't just one of the other three nanny left behind.

Kangxi has already had people investigate carefully about this nun Wen, and it is confirmed that she is loyal and gentle, and has nothing to do with the Hesheli family. In addition, the little prince has feelings for her but not too deep, so call It is most appropriate for her to come back to serve the little prince.

Jing Hao knew that after what happened to Nanny Yu, this Nanny Wen who could be called back to serve the little prince must have been investigated by Kangxi's people inside and out, so she was not worried that she would be the second One Yu Mammy.

Jinghao was thinking about it when she heard Kangxi change the subject, "However, people's hearts are changeable. I have always been busy with state affairs, and my ancestors are getting old. The queen mother has always ignored things, so I can't guarantee Will something similar happen to Baocheng again?"

Jinghao: "...???"

What does this mean?

No, what should he mean?

Jing looked at Kangxi, who was also looking at her, and then nodded at her, as if to say——

Yes, I mean exactly what you think.

"It doesn't make sense." Jinghao was about to wrinkle her face into a bun, "Your Majesty, how can I take care of His Highness the Crown Prince?"

It’s okay to let Jinghao get close to the little prince, it’s okay to play with him and cook him delicious food, but to take care of him?

Is this something she can do as a noble person?

Jinghao didn't forget that besides Kangxi, the Empress Dowager also valued the little prince.

Originally, the fact that Kangxi took her out of the cold palace with great fanfare had already hurt the empress dowager's eyes. Now if she listens to him and takes care of the little prince, Jing Hao has to worry whether the empress dowager will give her to her in a fit of anger. Click?

"There is nothing unreasonable." Kangxi said, "Just because Baocheng is willing to get close to you, you are competent enough."

In fact, when Kangxi was raising the baby alone before, he also handed over the little prince to the concubine to take care of him because of the busy state affairs, but all of them failed without exception.

Kangxi didn't understand at that time, but now that the matter of Mammy Yu has been exposed, he thinks that what happened back then may have been written by her, or even by the Hesheli family?

But the matter has passed, and there is no point in pursuing it. Now Jing really likes Baocheng, and Baocheng is close to her concubine, so Kangxi thinks it is most appropriate for her to take care of Baocheng.

"Okay, that's the decision." Kangxi didn't give Jinghao a chance to refuse, and then changed the topic domineeringly, "Ye Wenxing has found the antidote, and I plan to let you take it in the near future."

Take it recently?

In other words, she is going to have a "miscarriage" soon?

"Yeah, don't you need to be in such a hurry?" Jing Hao said, she thinks it's good that she is "pregnant" with a "child" now, at least every time she goes to pay her respects, other concubines don't dare to trouble her too much. too much.

Kangxi said with a serious face: "No hurry."

After all, Baocheng was in a hurry.

Jinghao: "...???"
