Houmen Fenghua: Meet the best evil mother-in-law

Chapter 789 Emperor Mingguang is Ruthless

"Surely smart!" Li Wenchong nodded. "There are few civil and military men in the Manchu Dynasty who are as sober as he is. In the three masters and three princes back then, only the Xuan family is left."

The Taifu's Mansion and Taishi's Mansion, which were once mighty for a while, were all dismounted.

Of course, Emperor Mingguang couldn't be blamed for being cruel.

It is true that they dominated the government and dominated the government back then, and they did too much.

But any aspiring emperor would not wish to become a puppet of his courtiers. It is only normal for Emperor Mingguang to want to "clean up" them.

But this also proved Xuan Taibao's sobriety and wisdom.

"Then do you think the Xuan family has that... the heart to fight?"

Li Wenchong shook his head: "I don't know about that. When Xuan Taibao retired, I was still young. Regardless of whether they have or not, they have reached this point now, and there is no way out."

Xuanjia: "..."

First Prince Li Jian: "..."

In fact, at the beginning, I didn't have one.

but……

Not since he went to the study, he has been suppressed by King Jin all the time. He was not convinced, so he wanted to fight.

As for whether it can be won...

do not know.

……

Concubine Yu: "..."

Guess I don't want my son to fight?
At first, Concubine Yu definitely didn't want to.

She was born in the Xuantaibao Mansion, and she married the most honorable person in the world, so what is there to argue about?
Not to fight is to fight.

It is better not to fight than to fight.

She never thought of fighting, but who would have thought of it?

The former empress did not live up to her expectations and did not leave a son for Mingguang. The other high-ranking concubines did not live up to their expectations.

Concubine Yu turned her head and found that not only did she give birth to the eldest son of the emperor, but also the princes, mothers and concubines who were closer to the eldest prince were not of high status, and those who were higher were basically ranked behind.

So...

Somehow, it became what it is today.

For a while, Imperial Concubine Yu had no other choice but to take one step at a time and become more and more careful.

I'm afraid, even if the eldest prince doesn't fight for that position, there will be no good end in the future, so he can only start "fighting".

However, Imperial Concubine Yu is more sensible than Concubine Fu, the concubine of King Jinjun. She knows very well in her heart that Emperor Mingguang's dragon body is in good health, and she doesn't know how many years she can sit still.Premature exposure is not a good thing for the First Prince.

Of course, it can't be completely concealed, and there is no intention of competition.Otherwise, it would be bad if Emperor Mingguang really kicked the First Prince out of consideration.

In the end, it became what it is now.

It cannot be said that there is no human factor at all, it can only be said that "marriage coincidence" created everything.

For everything behind this, no one knows except the Xuan family and Concubine Yu herself.

The couple talked for a while before falling asleep.

I don't know if Emperor Mingguang's anger played a role that day. For the next few days, it was very quiet inside and outside the court.

It's not that Fufei, the concubine of King Jinjun, doesn't want to intercede, but it's a pity that she is not a favored person, and coupled with her low status, she has no place to speak.

If she hadn't given birth to Jin Junwang, she might still be in the position of seventh-rank imperial daughter.

When Emperor Mingguang was young, he was quite beautiful. There were not many high-ranking concubines in the harem, and most of them were married when he was still the prince.

Later, when he came to power gradually, he didn't like to be influenced by others, and he was more willing to favor some low-ranking concubines.

It was at this time that Concubine Fu came into the eyes of Emperor Mingguang, and it was a high-ranking concubine who wanted to "borrow her belly to have a child" and took the initiative to send it to Emperor Mingguang.

Since it is used to give birth, the brain does not need to be too easy or too beautiful, but it can be justified.

Concubine Fu is like this. In terms of beauty, there are many people in the palace who are more beautiful than her; in terms of brains, there are many people in the palace who are smarter than her. Her only luck is probably to fall into the eyes of that high-ranking concubine. .

It's a pity that the child was born, and before the high-ranking concubine could hold the child, her natal family fell down.

Immediately afterwards, the high-ranking concubine was thrown into the cold palace, and on a certain winter night, she hanged herself.

Without the protection of the high-ranking concubine, Concubine Fu suffered a lot in this cannibalistic harem.If the first queen at that time hadn't been generous to others and cared more for the sake of the children, she would have stopped raising the children, and I'm afraid she wouldn't even be able to survive.

Later, children in the harem were born frequently, but not many survived to the preface.

The one in front didn't sit still, and when it was time for the sequence, Prince Jin came in second and became the second prince of the Ming Dynasty.

So many children died, Emperor Mingguang was not suspicious or did not investigate, but unfortunately, no clues were found, and those children just couldn't raise them.

On the contrary, it was Empress Xian who was scolded by him and quarreled with him, which was cold for several years.

That is, in those few years, the first queen's health gradually deteriorated.

Later, the first queen went.

After that, Emperor Mingguang regretted it very much, but it was too late.

Since then, Emperor Mingguang has never established a queen.

I don't know if the departure of the first queen opened the door to the royal family. Within a few years, the harem was like mushrooms, and children popped up one by one.

Emperor Mingguang: "..."

So, does this matter have anything to do with the former queen?

Empress Xian: "..."

It's none of my business!

If you die, you will not live in peace!
If I knew this earlier, I might as well not be the queen.

Then, the high-ranking concubines in the harem fought for power and oppressed profits, all kinds of conspiracies and schemes, and if they had more children, they would still die.

Emperor Mingguang was furious and dealt with it severely.

At that time, Concubine Yu was also a high-ranking concubine, but she was not the only high-ranking concubine, so she was not conspicuous.As a result, after Emperor Mingguang tidied up, a few years later, Concubine Yu suddenly found out: Shit!
Dangerous!

Why am I the only one left all of a sudden? !
Coupled with the existence of the First Prince, Concubine Yu was cautious, for fear that something would happen and fall into Emperor Mingguang's hands.

She can see that Emperor Mingguang is ruthless, and he won't tell you about his hard work and years of relationship. If you fall into his hands, you can deal with him as you want.

It was probably also because in those few years, Emperor Mingguang dealt with it too harshly, and none of the women in the harem dared to show their heads.

Even the concubine Fu who gave birth to King Jin, was gradually promoted to the position of concubine after King Jin grew up and made contributions.Otherwise, if she was promoted to Jieyu, she might not be able to get promoted.

In the harem, after giving birth to a child, there are several concubines who are still in that position.

Although some people said that Emperor Guang was "stingy" behind his back, no one dared to go to him and say it.There's no way, who made this lord the older he is, the less he likes to run to the harem, and the less he likes to manipulate the women in the harem?

He is happy and rewards you with something, but if you make him unhappy, it is not a small matter of grounding, and you may be directly thrown into limbo.

The high-ranking concubines who came out of the mansion together were all dealt with mercilessly by Emperor Mingguang. Who would dare to deal with these low-ranking concubines who were not of high birth and had never been favored?

The palace maid Shui Rou looked at Concubine Fu silently wiping her tears and felt a headache.

What's the use of wiping your tears if you don't sleep at night?

If you are really worried about Jin Junwang, you can either go to His Majesty to intercede, or find a way to send something to Jin Junwang to show your concern.

This one is fine, and does nothing but cry.

So, are you genuinely distressed, or fake distressed?
After a few words of persuasion, Concubine Fu didn't listen, and the palace maid Shui Rou didn't bother to bother, and silently left the room.
