Concubine Mi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 141

A month passed quickly, and I was suffocated in the house for several days, and this day I was finally able to go out for a breath of air.After freshening up and dressing up, Wang Miheng ate another half bowl of tremella porridge, and then went to Chengqian Palace to greet the imperial concubine.

It was very cold outside and the wind was blowing. As soon as she stepped out of the yard, Qiumei quickly put the stove in Wang Miheng's hands.

When he arrived at Chengqian Palace, there were already many concubines standing in the courtyard.As soon as Wang Miheng came in, all eyes fell on her at once, the jealousy and unwillingness in her eyes could not be hidden no matter what, only Suri and Jingui, who was still talking to her, smiled slightly at her. smiled.

Not long after, Nanny Gui lifted the curtain and walked out.Seeing Wang Miheng, she was slightly taken aback, and then said respectfully: "The imperial concubine said that it's cold outside, masters, go ahead and wait, the empress will be there in a while."

So, all the concubines entered the hall one after another and took their seats one by one.

As soon as Wang Miheng took his seat, he heard Jingui say: "I haven't seen you for a long time, your empress looks better and better. I should have gone to the empress's palace to congratulate her. I'm afraid I'm disturbing her peace. Please don't blame me."

It was very quiet in Chengqian Palace, when Mr. Jin spoke, all eyes were on Wang Miheng.

Wang Miheng smiled slightly, and said: "The nobleman's words are out of the question. How can we talk about blaming or not blaming."

The concubine Xiang glanced at Wang Miheng, and said: "It's Jingui who can speak, if the empress does not dislike it, the concubine will also sit in the empress's palace when she has time, to enjoy the joy of the empress."

Before Wang Miheng could open his mouth, he heard footsteps, and then, the imperial concubine wearing a bright yellow flag came out from the inner room, and was supported by a maid to sit on the main seat, her manners were sloppy. Royal nobility is everywhere.

"Major concubine and empress dowager." All the concubines stood up and bowed in unison.

The imperial concubine's eyes sized up the concubines, and finally her eyes were burning, and she fixed on Wang Miheng who was standing not far away. Although it was only a short moment, Wang Miheng still felt the oppression from above her head feel.

"Get up." The imperial concubine slightly raised her hand with a slight smile on her lips.

"Thank you madam."

All the concubines thanked me, and then I sat down.

Soon, some court ladies served tea.

The imperial concubine picked up the teacup and took a sip, then glanced vaguely at Concubine Hui who was sitting there, and then smiled faintly.

"Although the secret concubine has not performed the canonization ceremony, since the emperor has a will, then we can't wait. Concubine Hui, what do you think?"

Hearing the imperial concubine's words, Concubine Hui was startled, and hurriedly laughed and said: "Your Majesty's words are very true." She was unwilling to accept it, but hearing what the imperial concubine said now, she almost tore off the veil in her hand Broken, only hindered by the identity of the imperial concubine, she had to be careful with her.

Before Concubine Hui could speak, Concubine Xiang rang out with a somewhat harsh voice.

"It's not my fault that Sister Hui concubine lost her sense of proportion. I'm afraid that my sister hasn't gotten used to it yet, so it's possible for me to forget it for a while. But, my sister has to say one more thing, things in this palace are changing rapidly, and my sister doesn't have to be too persistent. "

Wang Miheng pondered for a while before he understood what the imperial concubine and concubine Xiang meant.

Co-authored, the two came together to create hatred for her.

In fact, if it hadn't been for this incident, she would never have thought that there was any problem with Concubine Hui sitting there.

No wonder, when she first entered the hall and took her seat, those people looked at her strangely.

It turned out that the problem was here.After thinking about this, Wang Miheng was speechless immediately.

Hearing the irony in Concubine Xiang's words, Concubine Hui hated in her heart, but she didn't want everyone to see the joke.He just stood up calmly, watched Wang Miheng bless his body, and said apologetically: "It's all my concubine's carelessness, please don't blame me."

Seeing Concubine Hui's actions, the smile on the corner of Concubine Hui's mouth froze slightly. How could she have imagined that Concubine Hui would pull her face down like this. After she explained the matter like this, it suddenly changed its taste.

It's because I underestimated her, that's right, with her current status, if she is more ignorant, it will only embarrass her even more.

Under the eyes of everyone, Wang Miheng and Concubine Hui exchanged places.After they were seated, another court lady served tea again.

Concubine Hui drank her tea silently, her face was calm, and there was no trace of abnormality.

For a while, the concubines who originally wanted to watch the excitement lost their interest.However, from time to time, he glanced at Wang Miheng who was sitting there, with different thoughts, either jealousy or resentment.

The women in this palace have been fighting for honor and position all their lives, and they only think about the fact that the secret concubine has only been in the palace for less than three years, and she has changed from an unrecognizable nobleman to the current concubine.After all, the emperor is partial.

Otherwise, how could she have the current glory as a Han woman.

Maybe the emperor valued it, that's the secret concubine's skill.

I don't know what ecstasy soup this secret concubine poured into the emperor, the emperor just couldn't do without her.The sons were born one by one, and their status was promoted one by one.If this continues, will there be a way for them to survive in the future?
Sitting there, Wang Miheng didn't know what everyone was thinking, but he guessed it pretty well.

Naturally, she soon became a little restless.

No matter who is scrutinized by so many people, he will feel overwhelmed after a long time.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the hall.

Immediately afterwards, a eunuch hurried in from outside the hall.

"Reporting to my lord, something happened to the fifth princess, and the emperor is furious. My lord, hurry up."

As soon as his words fell, the expressions of all the concubines changed.

The fifth princess is the daughter of Concubine Xiang, who murdered the emperor's heir and hanged her in his own palace. The emperor did not hand her over to other concubines to be raised, only the two previous nuns took care of her.

Come to think of it, for a princess who had committed a serious crime and was not loved by the emperor, life in the palace must be extremely difficult.

Although they had already prepared in their hearts, seeing the embarrassment and cautiousness of the fifth princess, the concubines couldn't help but take a deep breath.

It turned out that when the two nuns saw that the princess had lost her favor and lost her biological mother, they became bolder.Not only did he lose the careful care of the princess in the past, but he even became a bit domineering.

The food provided on weekdays is closely related to these two mothers. The fifth princess is hungry, so she can only eat some simple food, and if she speaks carelessly, she will be beaten and scolded. A nun took it in private.

Unfortunately, this scene was happened to be bumped into by Nanny Rong who was beside the Queen Mother.

Looking at the embarrassment of the fifth princess, and the bruises on the arm.Nanny Rong immediately reported back to the Queen Mother, which alarmed the emperor and angered him.

All the concubines were standing in the yard, and two young eunuchs were holding up the red lacquered board and hitting the two nuns hard.

The muffled voice hit the person's body, every time, it sounded extremely scary.

The two nuns were pressed on the wooden bench, their mouths were tightly gagged, and they fell down on the board. They struggled because of the severe pain. They wanted to cry out, but they couldn't make a sound. They could only whimper. roared.

Soon, there was a strong smell of blood in the air.

In the thick cold wind, according to Kangxi's will, he was punished a hundred times with a stick.

By the time the two little eunuchs stopped their hands, the two nuns had long been out of breath, and there was not a single piece of good flesh on their bodies, which looked particularly terrifying.

Seeing this scene, Wang Miheng could not help but shudder.But in my heart, I also feel that these two nuns are seeking their own death. The slaves are bullying the master, and they are bullying the princess of the royal family. It is reasonable to end up today.

"Your Majesty." After scolding the stick, Li Dequan glanced at Kangxi's face and reminded him in a low voice.

Kangxi looked calm, and waved his hand lightly, and soon someone dragged the two nuns out, even the blood on the ground was cleaned, only the strong smell of blood in the air still made people sick.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager can't bear the fact that the princess is helpless, why not raise the fifth princess in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and let the Empress Dowager take care of her personally."

As soon as Nanny Rong finished speaking, all the concubines froze there.

The Empress Dowager believes in Buddhism, and she does not like to be disturbed on weekdays.How respectable is it that the fifth princess can be raised in the queen mother's palace?

Kangxi was silent, and after a while, he said: "Then according to Er Niang's wishes, send the fifth princess to the Palace of Compassion."

For a moment, the expressions on the faces of the concubines became extraordinarily exciting.

Those who gave birth to daughters couldn't help being jealous.Although the emperor's princess is also a golden branch and jade leaf, she is not worth mentioning compared to elder brother.But if she can be raised in the Compassionate Ning Palace, her status is very different. With the protection of the Empress Dowager, whoever dares to underestimate her in the palace, even the emperor will definitely value her more.

But then again, although the concubines are unwilling, if they are asked to exchange their lives for these things, they will be unwilling.

Speaking of which, the death of this concubine Xiang is a good thing for the fifth princess, otherwise, with so many elder princesses in the palace, how could the emperor care about the daughter of a concubine who fell out of favor?
The imperial concubine took a step forward and said, "This is the fifth princess's blessing."

Kangxi hummed, glanced at her, and suddenly said: "Brother Fourteen is well, send someone to carry you to your palace."

Listening to Kangxi's words, the imperial concubine's eyes suddenly revealed a look of joy.

Fourteenth elder brother is not important, what is important is the meaning of the emperor.

The imperial concubine bowed profusely: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Soon, Kangxi moved back to Qianqing Palace, leaving only the concubines standing in the courtyard.

Concubine De also listened to Kangxi's words just now, so naturally she was not reconciled at this moment.

But I still suppressed my unhappiness, because for a long time, the emperor hadn't turned over her sign.

She had to wait until the day when she was favored again.

No matter how reluctant Concubine De was, Elder Fourteen was carried back to Chengqian Palace.

A few days later, it was the Queen Mother's birthday.
