Qing Dynasty Crossover

Chapter 462 Rumors Resurface
Concubine De said for a long time that she failed to achieve any of her goals, and she felt a little depressed. After seeing it, the nurse next to her hurriedly ordered the maids to bring tea cups and various exquisite snacks made by the imperial dining room in the palace, and personally placed mahogany carvings. On the kang table covered with begonia flowers, the food and drink were placed on it in an orderly manner, and the palace maid backed out with a wink, and stood sideways.

Wanyan graciously handed the teacup to Concubine De, "Er Niang, please use it." Qi Luo looked at the cloud cake in front of him, and really wanted to eat a piece. "Yinzhen Fujin has been tired for a long time, you can sit down too, and try the dim sum in the palace, how is it better than Prince Yong's Mansion? I always hear the emperor praise you for being good at eating, but I can't see you in this palace."

"It's my daughter-in-law's negligence." Qi Luo bowed her head to admit her mistake, and explained softly, "Daughter-in-law can't take the name of being good at food, many of them were found by the Duke's mansion, and the daughter-in-law just ordered the cook to prepare according to the recipe. It doesn't suit Erniang's taste, so the daughter-in-law didn't send it to the palace."

Concubine De took a sip of tea, leaned back, and asked casually, "Your brother Qi Jue has been married for a few years, right? I heard that he only had a pair of daughters?"

"Jinxuan and Jinyu are very tender, and my mother-in-law, Ama, likes those twin sisters very much." Qi Luo laughed in his heart. Concubine De is too strict with her, but Qi Jue asked for orders in front of everyone. Never take a concubine, not to mention whether Sijia and Qi Jue have any health problems, sooner or later they will have a son.He was the first to say, "Qi Jue is out leading the army, and the Duke's mansion relies on Princess Herui. She is also a filial and sensible person."

Concubine De put the teacup on the table, nodded and said, "The princess of Prince Kang's mansion is not to be chosen in terms of talent and appearance, but if she is too lucky, it may hinder her heirs. After all, Qi Jue is also your brother. He is the only legitimate son of Duke Zhiyuan, although he respects affection and refuses to accept concubines, if there is a suitable person to serve him by his side, he may be able to prosper the princess' heirs, and some legitimate sons will be born."

"Er Niang." Concubine De went on to speak first, "I know your intentions, and the imperial decree cannot be violated, but the emperor will not see Duke Zhiyuan cut off his lineage. Isn't it a good idea to keep a maid by his side? You Brother is not a title granted by grace, and the Uncle Yingwu on his body can also be passed on to his son in the future, a double title, what a rare honor? As the elder sister, you have never thought about this?"

"The water spilled by the married daughter, how can I ask about the affairs of the duke's mansion? I know that Er Niang has good intentions. Qi Jue and the princess are singing in harmony, and they have a pair of twin daughters. There will always be sons."

"You can't say that. We Manchus have aunts who are in charge of the family. You are the beloved daughter of Duke Zhiyuan, and Qi Jue was brought up by you. Adding a girl to my brother, even Princess Herui said If nothing happens, succession to heirs is a big deal." Concubine De went on to say earnestly, "If you don't like that, Er Niang."

Qi Luo really couldn't listen anymore, and interrupted Concubine De's words, "Emiang, the daughter-in-law really can't control the affairs of the Duke's mansion, and the Prince Yong's mansion alone keeps the daughter-in-law very busy. From the point of view of the husband, to arrange a room for the brother? It is really difficult to do it with the character of the daughter-in-law."

The scene was a little stiff for a moment, Defei pursed her lips tightly, but Qi Luo had a calm face without any worries, and even took a bite of the cloud cake that she had been thinking about for a long time, and then, under Defei's gaze, drank leisurely. Tea, and then sighed softly, "The dim sum in the palace tastes very sweet, fourteen younger brothers and sisters might as well try it."

Wan Yan is currently massaging De Concubine's shoulders gently, Qi Luo should be aware of De Concubine's anger, but she doesn't care?He called softly, "Fourth sister-in-law, Er Niang."

Concubine De sat up straight, slapped the kang table hard, and snorted coldly, "Old Fourteen Fujin, we can't afford to offend Prince Yong Fujin, who is this palace's daughter-in-law? Don't forget, this palace is Yinzhen His biological mother, hmph, no wonder San Fujin talked about the benefits of Yinzhen's first Fujin."

Qi Luo got up and knelt down in front of Concubine De with a plop, and said calmly, "My mother-in-law arranged for Qi Jue to have a house, and the daughter-in-law will be hard to follow. I will be flexible, my daughter-in-law's filial piety to you is no worse than that of Nala Fujin."

"You, you." Concubine De was unable to say anything while pointing at Qi Luo. At this moment, she shouted outside the palace, "The emperor is here, and Concubine De of Yonghe Palace will welcome you."

Concubine De was stunned. Kangxi hadn't visited the Yonghe Palace for a long time, and she didn't care about other things. She straightened up the bright yellow cheongsam embroidered with rich peonies, brushed her hair, got up quickly and helped the nanny to go out. Yan glanced at Qi Luo who was kneeling on the ground, and then followed. Qi Luo thought for a while, and slowly got up. If she was kneeling here, then with Kangxi's temper, after learning the details, it is very likely that Concubine De will be mad. He didn't wait to see Concubine De, but for the sake of Yinzhen, he still had to endure it, sighed, and walked steadily towards the main hall.

Kangxi had already taken his seat at this time, and Concubine De sat next to him. Kangxi, who was very serious at first, smiled when he saw Qi Luo, "Old Si Fujin, I haven't seen you for a long time."

Qi Luo took two quick steps, and said with a bit of coquettishness, "Huang Ama, you forgot. A few days ago, your daughter-in-law came to the palace to greet you, and you even rewarded her with a tea set from Jingdezhen."

"I remember, I rewarded you." Kangxi patted his forehead, and the smile on his face deepened, "You have a tacit understanding with my Duke Zhiyuan, and you asked for a reward from me abruptly. Hmph, next time I will definitely win back."

"Huang Ama is open-minded, so she won't care about her daughter-in-law's little tricks." Kangxi looked at Qi Luo's little daughter with a sly smile, and shook his head slightly, with pampering and pampering for Concubine De and Concubine De in his eyes. Even Yan could feel that although Wanyan's face was calm, the handkerchief in his hand had been twisted into twists.

Concubine De was also a little nervous, fearing that Qi Luo would sue in front of Kangxi, her eyes no longer saw the persecution just now, but looked at Qi Luo kindly and lovingly, waved to her, pulled her to her side, and said lovingly, "Your Majesty , the concubine is really satisfied with Yinzhen Fujin, she is filial, virtuous and knowledgeable, as long as she sees her, the concubine will feel comfortable."

Kangxi didn't look at Concubine De, his eyes fell on Qi Luo and he turned his face and said, "The fourth Fujin should be punished. I came to Yonghe Palace. You just came to pay my respects now? Did something happen in the inner hall just now?"

Feeling her hand being held by Concubine De, Qi Luo said with a smile, "My daughter-in-law knew about Huang Ama's arrival, so she asked Nanny to prepare food, so she took some time. Huang Ama knows me, and she is very fond of food. .”

At this moment, the palace lady brought the snacks, Kangxi looked at the six plates of pastries, his eyes fell on Concubine De for the first time, and then moved away, "She is my most valued daughter-in-law, and I don't want anyone to treat her poorly."

"Not only does the emperor value her, but the concubine also loves her." Concubine De hurriedly said, Qi Luo said a few words jokingly, which made Kangxi laugh again and again, Wan Yan looked on, her lips were about to be bitten, Seeing that it was getting late, Kangxi said, "Looking at the time, it's time for you to leave the palace. Remember to come to the palace often to greet me."

"Observe the decree." Qi Luo squatted down and threw the handkerchief to salute, Wan Yan could only leave the palace together, Kangxi suddenly called Qi Luo, "Old Si Fujin, do you ever feel wronged?"

Qi Luo turned around in a daze, looking at Kangxi with puzzled eyes, Kangxi sighed and waved his hands, "Forget it, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and I can't control much, Hongmin, he, this time he Don't refer to Xiunv anymore, let him do his homework with peace of mind."

Qi Luo nodded, she was very happy to be able to leave the palace, even Wanyan's presence didn't affect her good mood, the matter of the talent show was almost the same, just wait and see the beautiful girls, Just wondering if there will be any surprises?
After Qi Luo and Wanyan's family left the Yonghe Palace, Kangxi's face became gloomy, and his eyes fell on the palace door, "You all go out." The maids left quietly, Concubine De was very nervous. Nuo said "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you"

"Concubine De, I punished you for copying scriptures and reciting scriptures, but you don't even have a memory at all? Do you think I dare not destroy you for the sake of the old fourteenth?"

Concubine De knelt in front of Kangxi, kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, I will keep your words in my heart and dare not forget them all the time."

"Could I have said it wrong? The rumor about Lashi was not your idea?" Concubine De looked up at Kangxi with an expression of being wronged and hurt, and she couldn't help wondering, what about Lashi's rumor?Could it be Old Fourteen?No, he is in Qinghai now, how could he use this method to make up his mind, Concubine De defended with tears, "Your Majesty, my concubine has always lived in the inner palace, how could I violate the palace rules and talk nonsense, and if I say partiality in my heart , and pay more attention to the current Yinzhen Fujin, this matter is definitely not the work of my concubine."

Kangxi stared at Concubine De for a while, who could it be if it wasn't her?Are those rumors aimed at Ling Zhu?Kangxi stood up, "Concubine De, get up first, I will not let this matter go easily, if I find out that you are lying, I will not let it go as easily as before."

Seeing Kangxi leaving, Concubine De's feet were a little weak, and she was almost lying on the ground. Nanny hurriedly helped Concubine De lie down on the collapsed bed. Concubine De held Nanny tightly, and asked uncertainly, "What rumors made the emperor So angry? Why didn’t I hear about it?”

"Returning to Master, the slaves didn't hear it either, I'm afraid they have already been suppressed by the Emperor." Concubine De let out a sigh of relief, closed her eyes, no matter what the rumors were, it should have nothing to do with Old Fourteen.

Kangxi was furious in Dongnuan Pavilion at this time, especially after receiving the secret report, he wished he could rush into the Yonghe Palace to scold Concubine De again, tore the secret report to pieces, and said angrily, "That girl actually helped her hide it from me, no wonder will suffer."

"Your majesty, that's because of Si Fujin's filial piety. After all, the empress concubine is the biological mother of the fourth elder brother." Kangxi sighed, his eyes flashed with relief, "That's why I love her so much, Yinzhen Fujin I am very satisfied with dealing with the matter of the draft, being sensible and reasonable, and not making friends with the clan Fujin. It's just..."

Kangxi rubbed his forehead, and said in a deep voice, "Li Dequan, let Wu Dan check it out for me. I want to know who said that the fourth son loves Nala family? Who said that my Duke Zhiyuan plotted to marry Yinzhen to his beloved daughter?" , killed Nala? If you can’t find out, let him come and see you.”

Ps I know that the last two chapters are written in ink, and I also know that the dialogue is straightforward, but I really tried my best in the dialogue, and I also want to write implicitly, but I always fail to write, I stumble, and it delays my work even more. I'm really sorry, and the next chapter will end the draft plot. It should make sense for Defei to choose girls for Yinzhen, Hongshi, and Hongmin. Those are her sons and grandsons, and Defei mentioned Li's, He just wanted to add trouble to Qi Luo, let Mrs. Li out of the yard, and even win over Mrs. Li and Hongshi.
