The style of the Queen Mother in Qing Dynasty is different

Niu Hulu felt comforted.

She got up and saluted and said with a forced smile: "Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your help and comfort, I am very grateful."

Qiqige said: "I didn't help you with anything. Everyone has a difficult time, and the difficulty will always pass, and the good days will come later. Like now..."

Qiqige picked up the teacup that Mrs. Wang had drunk, "Just now you were asked to drink the rest of the tea, and tomorrow you will hear her weeping and repenting. Look, how quickly the good times come!"

Niu Hulu thought about what Qiqige said, and felt that what she said made a lot of sense.

Qiqige smiled and said, "Go back! Get a good night's sleep, and you must dress up beautifully tomorrow."

Niu Hulu saluted again, and this time she looked much more refreshed, "Yes! I will obey the Queen Mother's order!"

The next day, when everyone came to the Palace of Compassion and Peace to pay their respects, Niu Hulu was indeed dressed up in a dazzling manner.

She was wearing a purple-red cheongsam, originally a somewhat old-fashioned color, but wearing this dress made her look whiter and more beautiful.

Seeing Niu Hulu's gorgeous appearance, the Wangs felt great hatred in their hearts. They hated that Niu Hulu's luck was so lucky that they met the queen mother yesterday.

On such an occasion, the Empress Dowager would like to say some words of concern as usual, and the Empress would also find an opportunity to show her filial piety.

The queen mother listened to the empress dowager chatting with the queen about the family, showing a look of interest.

The two Wangs have low status, and they sat on the embroidered stool by the door uneasy.Sitting here is like waiting to be tortured, if you can get a knife quickly, that's all, but the Queen Mother didn't say a word, let them sit here and suffer.

After finally waiting for the Empress Dowager and the Empress to finish chatting, and the Empress Dowager didn't say anything about the review, hope rose in the hearts of the two Wangs that there was still room for maneuver in the past.

The empress dowager felt that the time was almost up, she smiled and let everyone disperse.

The two Wangs were overjoyed, and they were about to run away immediately.As soon as they stood up, Qiqige spoke.

"Wait! Don't let go!"

Qiqige turned her head to the Empress Dowager and said with a smile: "Emperor Niang, I watched a good show in the imperial garden yesterday, and today I will let someone perform it for you."

She smiled and waved to Mrs. Wang at the door, "Mrs. Wang, and your little friend, come here! Did you forget what I told you yesterday?"

The two Wangs came forward with bitter faces, Qiqige smiled and said: "Okay, everyone is here, everyone is so complete, you read it!"

Qiqige has already read the self-criticism, and the two Wangs can just read it according to it today.

Wang launched her self-criticism, "The concubine is guilty, and I will review it today."

She swallowed her saliva and said with difficulty: "The concubine shouldn't have offended Niu Hulu and Fujin yesterday..."

For a long time she read the words of apology, vague about what exactly happened.

Qiqige was very dissatisfied when she heard this, "You are too cunning, that's not how you wrote the review letter you gave me last night. Do you think that I am not very literate, that I can't memorize your review letter, so Deliberately lying to me?"

Wang was so frightened that she knelt on the ground, "The empress dowager forgive me! This concubine knows I was wrong! This concubine should read the self-criticism carefully!"

While crying, she recounted what happened yesterday, and when she finished reading the self-criticism, her little friend also obediently read the self-criticism.

The Empress Dowager was furious, "You are concubines, Niu Hulu's family is Fujin, the following crimes are unforgivable!"

The concubine of the harem did such a thing, and the queen also felt that her face was dull. She said angrily: "You are so courageous, it's all because I am too tolerant of you on weekdays!"

She got up and apologized to the Empress Dowager and Qiqige, "The concubine is negligent in discipline, please punish the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager."

There was a sneer on Niu Hulu's lips. The empress is so virtuous, and she seemed selfless in front of the empress dowager and the empress dowager. Why didn't she show up when she was detained by the Ministry of Internal Affairs?

Qiqige smiled and said: "Don't be angry, Empress and Empress, matters in the harem are family affairs, so you don't have to get angry. The children are disobedient, just discipline them well. In my opinion, from now on, the concubines in the harem don't have to beat, scold and punish them if they make mistakes. , just write a self-criticism, and then read it aloud in public. Not beating or scolding shows that we are kind, this is the royal demeanor!"

Qiqige pointed at the two Wangs and said with a smile: "Look, how will the two of them behave in the future? Read the self-criticism in public, and the emperor will soon know about it. How pitiful! Not only the people in the palace Will laugh at them, and may fall out of favor!"

Qiqige looked around at the concubines, "You children, be obedient! Take this as a warning!"

The concubines were terrified when they heard this, the maids and eunuchs whose status in the palace was not as good as theirs would laugh at themselves, talk about themselves behind their backs, and feel suffocated just thinking about it.It is embarrassing to read the review, but what is more terrible than embarrassment is falling out of favor. Without the favor of the emperor, they are nothing in the palace.

A few threatening words from Qiqige are more effective than any means of scaring chickens and monkeys.

The empress dowager couldn't tolerate the fact that the concubines hurt each other, so she dealt with Wang and others severely.And scolded the queen, blaming her for not managing the harem well.

This matter soon spread to the emperor's ears. He first visited the Niu Hulu family, and then went to Xian'an Palace.

"Emperor Niang, thank you for discovering it early, otherwise Niu Hulu would have suffered a lot of grievances." The emperor sighed, "Although I hate Ye Bilong's sloppy style, but he has made great contributions to the country, and I don't know what to do. I hope that his descendants will be bullied. Alas, it's also my fault for pampering Wang too much recently!"

Qiqige took down the teapot from the red clay stove, which contained boiling hot milk tea.She poured the emperor a bowl of tea and pushed the silver bowl of fried rice over.

"I don't know about court affairs, but I think that being an official is not always proud. When Ye Bilong was proud, Niu Hulu's family got a lot of benefits, but now they are ridiculed and bullied. That's nothing. What. I took care of this matter because I don't like concubines in the harem who are bullying others. We are all miserable people, so what good can we gain by bullying others?"

The emperor smiled and said: "Look at what the empress said, the concubines are pampered and pampered, how can they be hard-working people? I think I am gentle and considerate, so I can be regarded as a good person!"

Qiqige looked at the emperor seriously, "Do you still remember your biological mother? Didn't you realize that the women in your harem have also become the same as the women in the late emperor's harem? No, they are not as good as the late emperor's women, They are even worse. Xuan Ye, before you know it, you have changed from a victim to a perpetrator."

The emperor loosened his hand, and the bowl of milk tea was overturned on the table, and the soup and water flowed down the table.

Qiqige watched the milk tea flow on the ground, "Didn't Niu Hulu blame you? It's impossible! After her father's accident, you haven't visited her. I understand you, but you don't know when you see her." How should I explain it. You feel that you did nothing wrong when you dealt with Ye Bilong, but you still feel guilty when you see Niu Hulu. The women in the palace are suffering. This is a system problem, not all your fault. fault."

The emperor smiled wryly, "I still remember when I first got married, I asked the queen mother how to be a good husband. I always hoped that I could be better than Huang Ama. It turns out...it turns out that I was just being self-indulgent."

"If you want to be more open, as long as you are still drafting concubines, you will always hurt others." Qiqige used her hardcore persuasion skills again, "But I can't persuade you to change, after all, people are not good at sex. what?"

Qiqige: I am also lustful!Just no chance!
