Retirement in Qing Chuanwen

Jinghao doesn't have clairvoyance and ears, so naturally she doesn't know about the elder brother's overturned car in the Shang study. After sending Kangxi away, Jinghao is thinking about what happened today.

"Yangmei." Jing Hao suddenly remembered that this girl was well-informed, and asked after calling her, "Have you heard any gossip about brother Yin Zuo recently?"

"No." Yang Mei shook her head, she went to the Royal Garden with Jing Hao today, so Yang Mei heard it when Concubine Rong told Jing Hao about it.

But when Gui heard it, Yang Mei was as surprised as Jing Hao, because she had at most heard someone whispering that Yin Zuo was born in a good time and was a lucky person.

That's it.

As for the saying that Lord Long Live prefers elder brother Yinzuo and wants him to be the crown prince to inherit the throne, Yang Mei has never heard a word.

If she had heard of it, Yang Mei would have reported it to Jing Hao long ago.

Jing Hao thinks about it too, but Jing Hao trusts Yang Mei's ability to inquire about news. She thinks, there is no reason why Yang Mei doesn't know anything that Concubine Rong knows, right?

Either, Yang Mei knew about it but kept it secret and didn't tell her; or, someone wanted to hide it from her, so even Yang Mei couldn't find out.

Compared with the former, Jinghao thinks that the latter is more likely, because Yangmei has been serving her for so long and has always been conscientious. She has neither passed on to her natal family nor has anything wrong with her, so she has credibility. Still quite high.

"My lord, do you want the servant to go out and inquire?" Yang Mei asked.

"No need." Jing Hao shook her head, "Now the emperor is investigating this matter, we don't need to get a foot in, but..."

Jing Hao asked, "Who do you think will do what happened this time?"

When she first heard from Concubine Rong that someone used Yin Zuo's name to make a fuss, Jing Hao wondered if someone wanted to make trouble?

Because if it's not about making trouble, who would make fun of such things in their free time?Didn't even the unreliable Concubine Rong know that this is not the kind of thing that can be said openly in public?

After knowing why the little prince and the others fought in Shangshufang, Jinghao knew that her suspicion had come true. There was indeed someone doing something behind this, but she didn't know whether the target behind the scenes was the little prince or Yinzuo.

If it was the little prince, then wouldn't this conspiracy be a little too childish?

Rao Jinghao, who knows the history, has to admit that Kangxi at this stage is really precious to the little prince. Even if such rumors spread, once Kangxi knows about it, he will definitely kill it from the source , and even use Thunder to solve this matter.

In this way, not only would he not be able to hit the little prince, but it might also help him consolidate his already stable crown prince status.

The target behind the scenes is Yin Zuo?Or the concubine who gave birth to him?

After all, Yinzuo was just born not long ago, and he didn't see many people, let alone offended others, but Debi was different.

De Concubine has been immersed in the harem for so many years, there must be a few people who have grievances with her, and Yinzuo is her own son, if something happens to Yinzuo, De Concubine will definitely be killed. The blow was hard.

Even though Depin gave birth to two sons, the eldest son Yinzhen has been adopted by Concubine Tong Jia. Under the circumstances that the future cannot be predicted, Depin should think like most people, thinking that she wants Yinzhen to return to her The side is completely wishful thinking.

Taking ten thousand steps back, even if Yinzhen really has the opportunity to return to him when he grows up, but at that time he has already grown up and is already sensible, even if he knows who is his biological mother, But will he get close to Concubine De and alienate Concubine Tong Jia because of this?

So under such circumstances, even if Debi has two sons, it is no different from having only one son. In this way, the importance of Yinzuo to her can be imagined.

"This...could it be the noble concubine?" Yang Mei asked back.

"Why do you think it's a noble concubine?" Jing Hao asked her rhetorical question.

"Isn't that what you said last time, my lord? You said that the person who caused the imperial concubine to sprain her feet is likely to be the concubine De. If it is really the concubine, then it is normal for the concubine to take revenge on her?"

Yang Mei said, "Maybe it's because the emperor saw that De Concubine had just given birth to elder brother Yin Zuo. Even though he knew that De Concubine was playing tricks on the concubine, he didn't plan to pursue it, or didn't punish her severely. The concubine felt upset for a while, so she simply did it herself. Take revenge on Debi."

Jinghao: "..."

Although it was groundless, it sounded so reasonable that she couldn't refute it.

……

Not only Jing Hao and the others were discussing this matter here, but afterward, people who knew what happened in the Shang Study Room were also guessing who was doing it behind the scenes?

Gee tut.

It's too bold, isn't it?

He actually stretched out his hand to the little prince?

After everyone sighed, they turned their heads to "sympathize" with Concubine De, who also gave birth to Lord Long Live, so why did Concubine De have so many troubles?

Logically speaking, it is a blessing for the concubine to give birth on February [-], but now that the little prince is involved, this blessing may turn into bad luck.

"Master, who do you think Concubine De has offended?" In the Palace of Yanxi Palace, Concubine Hui's eldest maid, Zi Yuan, accompanied Concubine Hui's needlework, and asked curiously, "If such rumors are spread, Hey! The Shirley family was the first to refuse."

Empress Renxiao has passed away, and there are no concubines from the Hesheli family in the palace. Don't they place all their hopes on the little prince?

If anyone dared to shake the position of His Highness the Crown Prince, apart from the Long Live Lord and the Empress Dowager, the Hesheli family would be the most annoyed people.

Wu Ya's house confronted Hesheli's house, wouldn't it be an egg hitting a rock-suicide.

"That's hard to say." Concubine Hui said, "Concubine De is a person who is clearly a pot of fire, but secretly a knife. His mouth is sweet and his heart is very bitter. It is not uncommon to offend anyone. I am just curious who made it so It’s just a trick to deal with her.”

It was simply too shoddy.

But no matter who is scheming who, Concubine Hui can't wait for Kangxi to take over all the masterminds behind the scenes. What kind of thing is it? It's up to her son to mess with it. Isn't this bullying?

Thinking of Elder Brother coming back yesterday with a tattered face (Elder Brother: Most people use the word scarred to describe it), Concubine Hui was so angry that she wanted to hit someone.

Especially after knowing why Eldest Brother fought with Bayar, Concubine Hui said, "When did you have such a good relationship with the Crown Prince?"

So good that when someone said bad things about the little prince, it actually stepped forward to stand up for him?

Big brother: "..."

The moment he decided to hide the truth!

In front of the little prince, the elder brother didn't have the nerve to tell the reason why he fought with Bayar at that time. Could it be that he still had the nerve to say it in front of Concubine Hui?

Of course I'm sorry.

So the elder brother could only acquiesce that he had a good relationship with the little prince, even if Concubine Hui grabbed his ear and repeatedly "pressed" him, the elder brother kept silent.

Her own son hurts herself, and concubine Hui, who can't get anything out of "forced questioning", can't really vent her anger on elder brother, let alone settle accounts with the little prince and Bayal, so she directs all her anger behind the scenes The black hand went.

God damn bastard!

What's the point of targeting children?

Although the relationship between Concubine Hui and Concubine De is not very good, she really wishes that Kangxi would soon find out the culprit who framed Concubine De, otherwise she wanted to scold someone behind her back and didn't know who to scold.

However, what Concubine Hui didn't know was that the culprit who framed Depin was actually Depin himself.

As I said before, Concubine De has already guessed that Concubine Tong Jia has done so many things before, and she will definitely not let it go, and if she wants to protect herself, she must not sit still.

But the problem facing Debi now is that she knows that Concubine Tong Jia framed her, but she can't produce any evidence.

Mrs. Sun is dead, and something happened to the person who honored Mrs. Sun to her Ama. De Concubine knew what she was capable of, and if she had a way, she would have found the evidence long ago.

I only hate that Concubine Tong Jia did things so cleanly that they had no choice but to follow the clues to find evidence.

This way doesn't work, so Concubine De has to go another way, anyway, no matter what method Guifei Tong Jia will use next, it will definitely have something to do with Yin Zuo.

So Concubine De sent someone to stare at Chengqian Palace, and asked Jinchai and the others to pay attention to whether there would be rumors related to her Yinzuo in the Forbidden City.

Concubine De De is not sure what Concubine Tong Jia will do, but considering that she would rather choose to go around such a big circle in order to deal with her, De Concubine can speculate that Concubine Tong Jia will definitely choose some more roundabout ways next.

The best is the kind that has nothing to do with yourself.

If this is the case, then there are only a few ways to control.

Facts have proved that Concubine De's guess was right. Concubine Tong Jia really planned to make a big fuss about Yinzuo's birth date, and privately let people praise how blessed Yinzuo is and so on.

After knowing the secret plan of Concubine Tong Jia, De Concubine not only did not stop her, but even went the other way, not only letting people cooperate with them in spreading such rumors, but even adding fuel and jealousy to praise Yin Zuo as high as she could , even the words that Yinzuo's Zuo symbolizes the throne were actually passed on by Depin.

Of course, Debi didn't do this to flatter her own son. She did this because she wanted to put him to death and have a future life.

You don't need to ask De Concubine to know that once these rumors about Yinzuo spread, the first reaction of other people must be that she has been calculated and framed.

Moreover, it was related to the emperor's throne. De Concubine knew that Kangxi would conduct a thorough investigation. As long as he did a thorough investigation, he would follow the clues to find out about Concubine Tong Jia.

As long as Kangxi knew about Concubine Tong Jia's calculations, how much credibility would she have if she broke out about the fertility drug?

On the day of giving birth on the second day of February, Debi did not let the imperial physician take her pulse because she was worried that the imperial physician would find out that she had taken birth-inducing medicine, but the matter has passed. It proved that she had indeed taken fertility drugs that day.

On the contrary, Concubine Tong Jia first spread rumors that were unfavorable to Yinzuo, and then revealed that she was taking birth-inducing medicine, so in the eyes of others, could it be that Concubine Tong Jia wanted to frame her, and if she failed to do so? What about making a living?

De Concubine had planned everything well at first, even though she knew that the rumor had spread to the Shang Study Room and caused the little prince and the others to fight, De Concubine did not panic.

Because Concubine De, like Concubine Tong Jia, also hoped that Kangxi would hear those rumors as soon as possible. Qing Gong admitted his mistake.

"You said, you are the one who spread rumors about Yin Zuo these few days?" Kangxi looked at Concubine Tong Jia kneeling in front of him with an inexplicable expression.

"The words of returning to the emperor were spread by the concubine." Concubine Tong Jia admitted very honestly.

"Why?" Kangxi asked.

"Because... because your majesty, you knew exactly what De concubine had done, and even hurt my concubine, but in the end you just missed the old relationship and were reluctant to deal with her. Concubine... I felt angry for a while, so I did it." Something like this happened."

When Noble Concubine Tong Jia spoke at the end, she probably felt that she had done something wrong, so her voice became softer and her expression was somewhat guilty.

"Since you are upset, why did you come here to tell me the truth?" Kangxi looked at Concubine Tong Jia and said, "Is it because you knew that Baocheng and Baoqing were involved? Or was it because you came here to plead guilty? Will let you go?"

Concubine Tong Jia could tell that Kangxi was angry at these words, and said quickly: "No, the concubine came to Qianqing Palace to confess to the emperor, not only because the prince and the others were involved in this incident, but also because the concubine found out that someone took the opportunity to fish in troubled waters. .”

"The concubine originally just let people spread the news that Elder Brother Yinzuo was born on the day of Longshengtou, and he was very lucky, but when the concubine found out why the prince and the others were fighting in the Shangshufang, the concubine knew that there was still a lot of money. There are even more outrageous rumors coming out."

"The concubine has asked people to stop spreading rumors for the first time, but...it can't be stopped." Concubine Tong Jia looked up at Kangxi anxiously, with a look of panic and no idea, "The emperor... Brother, this concubine really never thought that things would come to this extent."

In the end, Concubine Tong Jia even played the emotional card in order to appease Kangxi.

"Didn't you let people make rumors that I prefer Yinzuo, and even gave him a name that symbolizes the throne?" Kangxi asked lightly.

"Of course not." The noble concubine Tong Jia opened her mouth and denied, "No matter how ignorant the concubine is, she would not dare to talk about the prince. Besides, no one would believe such a story? How could the concubine make people like this? Spreading rumors? Someone must know that the concubine is going to deal with the concubine De, so they want to take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters."

"Your Majesty, you must send someone to investigate!"

……

Concubine Tong Jia spoke sincerely, and she was very sincere in going to Qianqing Palace to surrender. Not only did she voluntarily admit in front of Kangxi that she wanted to frame De concubine, she even confessed to Kangxi whoever she sent to spread rumors Chu.

It has to be said that after Guifei Tong Jia's confession, the investigation by the people under the ground immediately got twice the result with half the effort, and it took less than a day to find out who the person who was fishing in troubled waters was.

-

"Master, is it too aggressive for you to take the initiative to go to the Qing Palace and confess to the Lord Long Live?" Nanny Liu agreed with a quick decision. After all, Consort De is full of tricks. One day she'll figure out a way to get out.

But Grandma Liu didn't approve of such a rash advance, because if they were not careful, they would easily overturn.

"Don't worry, mother." Concubine Tong Jia was full of confidence, she said, "I have had people sweep up all the clues a long time ago, no matter how the emperor investigates, he will only find out about that bitch Debi in the end." head!"

It is true that Concubine Tong Jia wanted to make De Concubine fall into trouble, but she never thought of paying herself. Otherwise, wouldn't it be like killing one thousand enemies and self-defeating eight hundred?

Concubine Tong Jia said that she would not do such a stupid thing.

"Besides, I took the initiative to admit my mistakes to the emperor, and even took the initiative to admit that I really wanted to harm Concubine De. This would indeed damage my image in the emperor's heart, but on the other hand, it also cleared my heart. The palace planted her suspicion."

Concubine Tong Jia had no way of not leaving any clues about sending people to spread rumors. Since this is the case, then Concubine De knew that she would do the opposite. Didn't Concubine Tong Jia know?

Moreover, Concubine Tong Jia felt that she had voluntarily admitted (part of) what she had done in front of the emperor. Presumably the emperor would never have thought that this was just a part of her plan.

Anyway, things are true and false, and it is easier to be believed if they are mixed together.

Mammy Liu knew that what Concubine Tong Jia said was not unreasonable, but she always felt a little weird, thinking that the master wanted to go all the way to the dark in the matter of pretending to be stupid?

But no matter what, Concubine Tong Jia calculated for so long, before Yinzuo's full moon, she finally got what she wanted——

Depin was demoted!

……

Concubine De concubine gave birth to a healthy little prince for Long Live Lord on the auspicious day of February [-]. Not only was she not promoted to be a concubine, but she was deprived of her title, and once the news spread that she was demoted to a nobleman, everyone in the harem was shocked. shocked.

After all, De concubine... No, it is true that nobleman Wuya gave birth, and it was true that she was favored before. Even if Jinghao turned out to make nobleman Wuya gradually fall out of favor, it is impossible for nobleman Wuya to fall out of favor after giving birth, right? ?

So people who didn't know one after another inquired about the reason why nobleman Wuya was deprived of his title and demoted to nobleman, and nobleman Wuya felt even more unbelievable when he received the imperial edict.

"Impossible! This is impossible!" Noble Wu Ya looked towards Liang Jiugong who came to read Kangxi's will, "Eunuch Liang, Yin Zuo is my child, how could I spread such rumors to harm him? Someone must have framed him mine."

Noble Wu Ya really couldn't figure out why the things she had planned ended up in such a way in the end?

"Your Majesty Wu Ya, the imperial decree of Long Live Lord has been issued, so you can accept it." Liang Jiugong didn't listen to Elegant Wu Ya's sophistry, let alone sympathize with her.

As far as Liang Jiugong is concerned, as long as it is something that Kangxi has determined, then he only needs to implement it.

Besides, Liang Jiugong took people to investigate this matter, and there are indeed doubts about it, but such things as taking oxytocin to give birth on February [-], and deliberately adding fuel and vinegar to create rumors really did not wrong her .

Hearing Liang Jiugong's address to him, Noble Wu Ya felt very harsh. Knowing that the matter was a foregone conclusion, no matter how much trouble he had, he could not change it, Noble Wu Ya finally accepted the imperial edict.

But after Liang Jiugong took people away, nobleman Wu Ya was so angry that he smashed all the things in the house.

"Why? Why was I deprived of my title? I was demoted?" Noble Wuya was usually calm, but not long after giving birth, and faced with such a bad thing, nobleman Wuya couldn't control her emotions at all.

God knows how much effort and price she has paid to climb to the concubine?

But now she ended up like this!What could she hope for in the future?

Don't look at Wu Yagui being promoted so fast before, firstly because she was favored, and secondly because she was able to give birth, but now she has fallen out of favor, and there is no chance of rebirth. After these two roads are blocked, How difficult is it for nobleman Wu Ya to climb up again?

……

Jing Hao didn't know what happened in the Yonghe Palace, but she thought with her nose how broken Wu Yagui was at this moment.

To be honest, when she found out that Noble Wu Ya's being framed was just a play directed and acted by herself, Jing Hao was not surprised, and she didn't say much about the reason.

But after knowing Kangxi's punishment for her, Jinghao was really surprised.

Because if she remembers correctly, Mrs. Wu Ya's life has been developing upwards, right?Even though she had never been a queen, she eventually became the queen mother and became the champion of this year's palace fighting.

For nobleman Wuya, the biggest regret is probably that the person who finally sat on the throne was not her favorite fourteenth son Yinzhen, but Yinzhen who was estranged from her.

But what's going on now?

Jing Hao is really curious.

However, before Jing could satisfy his curiosity, Kangxi did another surprising thing, which was to order Concubine Tong Jia to hand over the palace power to Concubine Niu Colu. Concubine Colu is in charge of the Six Palaces.

As for when Concubine Tong Jia will recover from her injuries, Kangxi did not say, and when Concubine Niu Gulu will be in charge of the Six Palaces, Kangxi did not say.

Concubine Tong Jia, who was gloating because of nobleman Wu Ya, said, "...???"

Concubine Niu Colu, who was suddenly hit on the head by a pie falling from the sky: "...???"

What exactly is going on?

Both Concubine Tong Jia who lost the palace power and Concubine Niu Colu who gained the power in vain were a little confused. Concubine Niu Colu was better, after all, she got a big deal for nothing, but Concubine Tong Jia was different.

"I don't believe that the emperor will treat me like this!" Concubine Tong Jia quarreled and wanted to go to Kangxi to ask what happened, but she was stopped by Nanny Liu and the others.

It wasn't that they accepted the result calmly, but that they knew that since Kangxi had made an order, it meant that this matter was irreversible.

"Master, please calm down." Madam Liu said, "The plan for now is for us to find out as soon as possible if there is something wrong, so that Lord Long Live can find evidence against you."

Liu Nanny's words finally calmed Concubine Tong Jia down, but what they didn't know was——

Kangxi did not find any evidence against Concubine Tong Jia. The reason why he decreed to seize the imperial power of Concubine Tong Jia was just based on his intuition.

His intuition told him that in the whole matter, Concubine Tong Jia was not innocent.

As for the evidence?

He is not handling the case seriously, what evidence does he want?
