[Qing Chuan] Yongzheng's embarrassing empress

Tong Guowei's words made Long Kedo feel uneasy.

As a son, Longkoduo knew his father too well, and respecting his father, the uncle of the country, was not just for the sake of the emperor.

When Tong Guowei was young, he was both civil and military, courageous and resourceful. He would buy people's hearts and win connections.There must be a reason for what he said, and a deep meaning.

In the early years, Tong Guowei was also very good at figuring out the emperor's mind, because he acted according to the emperor's will, so even if he said something harsh, the emperor just smiled and said that his uncle was upright and never cared about him seriously.

Longkodo is now meeting with the wind to make the rudder. In the final analysis, he followed Tong Guowei.

It's a pity that time makes people old, Tong Guowei now is different from before.Maybe it's because he's getting older, and because the emperor has been used to it all these years, and the ministers respect him, his temper is getting worse and worse.

Tong Guowei may not be clear about the emperor's meaning in this incident of abolishing the prince, but for the benefit of the family and to make the glory of the Tong Jia clan last forever, he chose the most popular eighth elder brother among the many princes.

Tong Guowei felt that he had a bit of face in front of the emperor. Besides, the eighth elder brother was talented and fully qualified to be the next emperor. He ignored the emperor's intentions and insisted on flattering the eighth elder brother, which caused the emperor to complain about this uncle.

Longkodo saw it clearly, and he also persuaded Ama, but the old man refused to listen, and scolded him instead.

Longkodo didn't have much filial piety at first, and he never persuaded him again after that, he just flattered the emperor, contacted the fourth elder brother, and everything he did was only for himself.

Now that Longkodo has received such news from his father, of course he has to remind the fourth elder brother to be careful.

In the carriage, both father and son were silent. When they returned home, Long Kedu went back to his yard, Tong Guowei went to the study, and ordered someone to call the eldest son Ye Keshu.

Ye Keshu is the eldest son in the family, and Tong Guowei thinks highly of him even more.

Ye Keshu will arrive soon. Today he is on duty outside. Although he did not attend the court meeting, he has already heard about what happened at the court meeting.

"Ama." Ye Keshu bowed to greet Tong Guowei, "Ama, I know everything about the court, what are you going to do?"

Tong Guowei snorted coldly, "What else can we do? The emperor has already decided not to appoint a crown prince. It's a done deal. We can only watch!"

Ye Keshu was also worried, his family made it clear that they supported the eighth elder brother, and this time they made it clear that they hoped to establish a crown prince. Both decisions were contrary to the emperor's opinion, and he was worried that the emperor would have a grudge in his heart.

Ye Keshu persuaded: "Ama, these days you should follow the emperor! If there is no crown prince, there will be no crown prince. The emperor is in good health and in the prime of life, so it doesn't matter if there is a crown prince or not. As for the eighth elder brother, although he is capable, but The emperor is tired of him now, he doesn't know how long he will have to wait to regain his favor!"

Although the emperor named him Baylor, he was only a Baylor!

Tong Guowei waved his hand impatiently, "You don't need to talk to me! I didn't ask you to come here to tell you these things. You keep an eye on your third brother for me."

"The third one? Why are you staring at him?" Ye Keshu thought to himself, the third one has been quite honest recently!

Tong Guowei sneered, "He is stepping on me today, rushing to flatter the emperor, and flattering Prince Yong in private, he has a lot of small thoughts! I let you watch, and you go."

Ye Keshu quickly agreed, "Leave the matter to me, and Ama can rest assured!"

He hesitated for a moment and said: "This... the third child's vision is not bad. From the current point of view, the emperor really thinks highly of Prince Yong."

Tong Guowei took a sip of tea slowly, "The fourth elder brother can't do it, he is too upright and too proud, he can respect you, but you must do things according to his will, and you can't disobey it. The eighth elder brother is different Yes, he is more tactful and more tolerant. To put it bluntly, as long as our Tong Jia family is still a big family, the eighth elder brother will be more manipulative than the fourth elder brother."

Ye Keshu just mentioned it casually, they had already made it clear to support the eighth elder brother, and now it was too late to vote for other princes.

Leaving aside the matter of Tong Guowei's family, people from the Longkoduo faction have arrived at Prince Yong's Mansion.

When the fourth elder brother received the news, he was playing with Guaibao with Shuwan. After reading the letter that Long Kedo sent in a hurry, Guaibao snatched the letter on his feet, grabbed it with two small hands, and looked like looked up.

Shuwan rushed to grab the letter, "My treasure! Don't make trouble! Your Ama's letters are of great use!"

The fourth elder brother thinks the child looks cute when he reads the letter, and doesn't want Shuwan to disturb him.

"I've read the letter, let him play with it! Children are immature, so they should be thrown away after playing for a while."

Hearing what the fourth elder brother said, Shuwan didn't care.

"Who is this letter to you?" Shuwan asked casually.

"My good uncle Longkodo, he told me to be careful recently."

"The words are unclear, unclear, okay, what does he want you to be careful about?"

It's no wonder that Long Kedo couldn't explain it clearly. He didn't know the details at first, but he guessed from Tong Guowei's few words that someone was going to hurt the fourth elder brother.

The fourth elder brother said: "Be careful, there is no big mistake, let's just be on guard."

After a few days, Shuwan entered the palace to greet Concubine De, and the fifth princess, the thirteenth and fourteenth Fujin were also there.Several women got together to chat about homework, clothes and jewelry, and pass the time.

After having lunch in Yonghe Palace, Shuwan planned to sit down for a while before leaving the palace to go home. The Queen Mother suddenly summoned everyone to her place to enjoy the newly blooming apricot blossoms.

It's rare for the queen mother to have a good mood, and everyone in the harem will of course join her.

Concubine De led her daughter-in-law to the small garden of Ningshou Palace. The concubines arrived soon, but the Empress Dowager did not show up for a long time.

After a while, an unexpected person helped the queen mother to the small garden, but it was the princess who hadn't shown up for a long time.No, you can't call her the Crown Princess now, you should call her the Princess of the County.

Everyone was stunned when they saw the former princess, and Shuwan murmured in her heart.

The former princess appeared with the help of the queen mother. Was this the queen mother's own intention, or was it the emperor's order?Could it be that the apricot blossom admiration today was instigated by the former princess?

Everyone saluted together and greeted the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager was also happy to see the lively garden.

The Empress Dowager waved her hand and avoided everyone's ceremony.

She smiled and said: "I don't know poetry, and I don't know what Fengya is, but spring is here, and the flowers bloom beautifully. I know this. I see the flowers blooming so lively, and I want you to come and see them too." Look, you will feel better after watching it!"

Concubine Yi quickly flattered: "It's still the Empress Dowager who loves us. The tree blooms in spring for us to see, and in autumn for us to eat the fruits."

The queen mother smiled and said: "You are the most lovable person, I will forget you and no one will forget you!"

Concubine Yi smiled and walked to the Empress Dowager, held her other arm, and helped the Empress Dowager into the crowd unobtrusively, pushing the former Crown Princess down.

"The empress dowager is the best at coaxing people, and I am the most lovable. You should only invite me! You have invited all your daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law, and I have to compete with them."

Concubine Hui smiled and stood on the other side of the Empress Dowager, taking the place of the former Crown Princess.

"The queen mother loves you so much, you are not satisfied! You are already a grandma, I advise you to be more cautious!"

The former princess tactfully gave up the seat to the two concubines, and the others followed the queen mother inside, and would deliberately avoid her when passing by her.

Shuwan looked around, thought for a while, and decided to say hello to the former princess.

"Second sister-in-law, long time no see."

"Fourth brother and sister!" The former princess was stunned for a moment, and she sighed, "It's been a long time..."

Since the crown prince was abolished, she has been imprisoned in Yuqing Palace, and her life has fallen from the sky to the ground.The time when she chatted with Shuwan carelessly seemed to be a matter of her previous life, and she couldn't see clearly through a layer of water mist.

After only saying "Long time no see", the two of them had nothing to say.

Shuwan rubbed her nose in embarrassment, "Second sister-in-law please first."

The former princess smiled and nodded, "Let's go together!"

The apricot blossom exudes a lingering light fragrance, and the white and pink petals are extremely delicate.

Shuwan picked one off casually and pinched it on her fingertips.

The former princess smiled lightly and said: "The emperor is magnanimous, allow me to come out to greet the queen mother. I thought that the weather is good today, so I let the queen mother come out to see the flowers and bask in the sun. I didn't expect the queen mother to come out in a good mood and invite everyone here .”

She seemed to be explaining to Shuwan, but Shuwan didn't fully believe her words.Now it is not the same as before, Shuwan dare not believe it.

Relative silence is also boring. Both of them feel sorry for their former friends becoming like this.The two of them separated tacitly, one went to the queen mother's side, and the other returned to Defei's side.

Seeing Shuwan coming back, Concubine De gave her a disapproving look, but because of the crowds here, she didn't say anything in the end.

The small garden of Ningshou Palace is not big, and the Empress Dowager was tired after watching Hua for a while, so she simply let everyone disperse.

Shuwan sent Concubine De back first, and then left the palace with Fifth Princess and Thirteenth Fujin.On the way, I happened to meet Concubine Hui's sedan chair.

The three of Shuwan hurriedly saluted Concubine Hui, and Concubine Hui greeted them kindly when she saw them.

After chatting briefly for a while, everyone said goodbye to each other. Just as they passed by, there was a sudden chaos behind Shuwan, as if someone fell down.

Shuwan looked back, Concubine Hui's maid and her servant girl fell into a ball, and the other servants hurriedly helped the two of them up, looking in a mess.

Shuwan hurriedly apologized to Concubine Hui, "You made Niang Hui laugh, the servants in my family don't understand the rules."

Concubine Hui didn't take it seriously, "They didn't do it on purpose, it's nothing."

The maidservant stood up and quickly knelt down to salute. Concubine Hui's eldest maid picked up a small paper bag from the ground.

"Whose is this? It should have fallen from your body when you accidentally bumped into each other."

Shuwan's maid clutched the purse at her waist nervously, she shouted palely: "It's mine!"

Shuwan had a bad feeling in her heart, and Chun'er walked over to take the paper bag.

"It's yours, what are you shouting about?" Chun'er smiled at Yifei's eldest maid, "Thank you, sister, give me this!"

Concubine Hui suddenly said, "Wait a minute! Show me this thing first!"

Shuwan's maid became more nervous, and Shuwan's heart sank even more. There must be something wrong with this little paper bag. It seems that she has fallen into a trap!
