The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 194
"Actually, it is very simple to destroy his arrogance. Now that Wu Yingxiong is imprisoned in the princess mansion, the emperor can kill him to sacrifice the flag to vent his anger. This can destroy other people's prestige and boost his own morale."

Wan Lai's words are soft and gentle, but she hides her sharpness.

While she was talking, she filled a bowl of fresh soup made of ham and quail for the emperor. The soup was boiling hot and smoked and smothered on the emperor's face with a fresh fragrance. Frowning: "Princess Jianning is my aunt. Although she married Wu Yingxiong Manhan to check and balance Wu Sangui, after all, she and Wu Yingxiong were in love with each other after marriage. After this happened, she entered into marriage immediately. The Palace of Compassionate Ning bitterly stated to the imperial grandmother that this matter had nothing to do with Wu Yingxiong, and she cried so much here, how can you tell me to bear it?"

"The concubine just asks the emperor, who brought this matter to Wu Sangui who is far away in Yunnan and Guizhou?"

The emperor sighed, and said helplessly: "How can I not know, but" he was silent for a moment, then raised his hand and said: "Forget it, I will send envoys to make peace with Wu Sangui, if he is willing to ask for gold and withdraw the army, I will ignore him I don't want to chase him to death. If I don't repent, I will only suffer for my aunt."

After that day, although the emperor gave up the idea of ​​the imperial conquest, he never stopped discussing with his ministers about the strategy of attacking Wu Sangui.

After the New Year's Eve, the Empress and Honorable Rong are more pregnant. The Empress corrected the fetal position for so many days, and now the abnormal fetal position has been cured. The palace was originally a prosperous and peaceful scene.

But this peace was broken with a tragedy.

The fifth elder brother Saiyin Chahun had a sudden high fever on the 13th of the first lunar month. It was a very common wind-cold disease. However, the disease came on violently and the high fever persisted. The child had lung disease and died suddenly on the 29th of the first lunar month in the [-]th year of Kangxi. , die forever.

Xiuyan was pregnant at first, and after this incident, she was in great grief and pain, and her fetal gas moved, and she became slightly red, so the imperial physician who was protecting her fetus had to fumigate moxa to stabilize the fetal image.

At the beginning of April in the 13th year of Kangxi, after a day and a night of analgesia, the nobleman Ma Jiaxiuyan gave birth to a son on the sixth day of April. Heart palpitations, died within an hour of birth.

Xiuyan lost her son one after another and was devastated. If it wasn't for Wanyu and Rongyue who were always by her side, she couldn't think of it and committed suicide early in the morning.The emperor mourned the loss of his two sons, and asked Qin Tianjian to come up with a name for the dead son, but hoped that the child would be reborn into a wealthy and prosperous family.

Qin Tianjian proposed the name Changhua for the prince, and the emperor was buried under this name.

On the sixth day of April in the 13th year of Kangxi, Changhua, the seventh son of the emperor, passed away in Chengqian Palace.

But this matter is not over yet, Qin Tianjian even spoke to the emperor, telling the night star view that he saw a disaster star from the southwest colliding with the Ziwei emperor star, thus restraining the emperor's heir and affecting the Qing Dynasty.

The southwestern direction of the capital is in Yunnan, and what Qin Tianjian refers to as the calamity, the emperor clearly refers to Wu Sangui.

That day in Qianqing Palace, the emperor was furious.

However, what is even more fueling is that in the early court, the emperor was discussing state affairs with his ministers, and the spies from the former court panicked and knelt inside and said bitterly: "Reporting to the emperor, the envoys sent to make peace with Wu Sangui have found their whereabouts." "

The emperor flicked his sleeves and said angrily: "Don't hesitate, tell the truth!"

The spy wiped off his sweat and said falteringly: "Wu Sangui. He will beheaded and quartered by five horses in the future. He will hang the broken limbs above the city gate and expose them to the sun for several days. He will sit on the throne as the emperor and work in the Yunnan-Guizhou area. He became the Emperor of Earth and called himself the 'King of Zhou'!"

Before he finished speaking, the emperor got up from his desk and slammed the royal desk in front of the Dragon Throne: "Presumptuous! If I just tolerate it, he thinks I'm a fatuous and incompetent master?"

At this time, the queen's uncle Suo'etu said to the emperor: "Wu Sangui is so rebellious, the emperor really wants to let Wu Yingxiong live again?"

"At first, I thought of Princess Jianning's face, and I didn't kill Wu Yingxiong. The purpose was to arouse Wu Sangui's half-human nature, so that he would retreat in spite of the difficulties and withdraw his troops, so as to avoid the loss of life. If the two countries are at war, if they don't kill the envoy, he What kind of thing is Wu Sangui?" The emperor was very angry and laughed back: "He was the one who fled first as the general soldier of Ningyuan during the Songjin War in the Ming and Qing Dynasties; he was the one who surrendered Li Zicheng against the Ming Dynasty; He, he was the one who strangled Emperor Yongli of the Nanming Dynasty, and now he is the one who rebelled against the Qing Dynasty as King Pingxi of the Qing Dynasty! How can I expect him to do anything benevolent, righteous, courteous and wise for such a capricious and lonely villain? "

He sneered and sneered twice: "I will pass on my order, immediately go to Princess Jianning's mansion, arrest Wu Yingxiong and his son Wu Shilin, hang them on the spot! And sacrifice the flag with blood to boost morale, and start a full-scale war against Wu Sangui!"

After saying this for a while, the emperor's face darkened, and he said with cold eyes: "Chop off Wu Yingxiong's head, and quickly transport it to Yunnan and hand it over to Wu Sangui! I want to see if he can still laugh out loud. Come!"

On April 13th, the [-]th year of Kangxi, Wu Yingxiong, the eldest son of Wu Sangui, king of Pingxi, and Wu Shilin, the second son, were killed by the emperor's order, and Wu Yingxiong's head was cut off and shipped to Yunnan.Because of the emperor's move, the morale of the Qing soldiers increased greatly, and they vowed to kill every Wu soldier.

The bloody storms in the former court continued, and everyone in the harem was in a panic.

This uneasiness was at its peak in the Queen's Kunning Palace.

Because Qin Tianjian said that the disaster star from the southwest collided with the emperor's heir, the empress who was about to give birth became more and more unable to sleep peacefully.

She had witnessed how Ronggui lost her son one after another, and she was afraid that this disaster would also spread to her.

Seeing that her belly is getting rounder and rounder, soon it will be time to give birth, the empress puts more emphasis on food and daily life, and even makes the guards strictly guard the Kunning Palace. On weekdays, except for the emperor and the empress dowager, everyone in the harem will be there. She didn't see Concubine Yi at all.

This day was the last time for the nanny who helped the empress to give birth to rub her belly. After the matter was over, the nanny said: "In this way, the empress's fetal position has been corrected, so there is no danger."

The queen seemed worried, and announced that the imperial physician would come to see her, and did not let out a sigh of relief until she said everything was going well after the pulse diagnosis.

She seemed to be extremely tired with her heart hanging all day long, and she lay flat on the couch after everyone dispersed, because the emperor's heir was rolling and making noises in her belly, she also had a great sense of oppression in her breathing.

Seeing that she was really uncomfortable, Qingyue took a pine branch cushion to put her behind her, and helped her lean on the couch: "It's really hard for the empress to be pregnant."

The queen caressed her chubby belly, and said with a worried face: "I don't care if I work hard or not, as long as the child can land safely. I'm afraid that Qin Tianjian's words will become a prophecy. There are examples of honorable people. I don't care." Gong's mood is really disturbed."

"Your Majesty, you are different from Ronggui. You have been blessed by your ancestors. Even the imperial physician and the mother said that your pregnancy is safe. Don't worry, don't think about so many foolish things."

The queen shook her head, breathed heavily and said with difficulty: "Forget it, now I hope that the time of childbirth will come soon. Only when the child is born, can all the fear in my heart disappear."
