Concubine Mi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 170

Cheng Qiangong

Concubine Tong Guifei was still very upset when she heard Ning Guiren dressed up and headed towards the Qixiang Palace, but now she heard the palace maid's report, she couldn't help laughing out loud.

If she guessed right, the palace is going up and down at the moment, and it might spread that Ning Guiren is blocking the way in the cold to try to seduce the emperor, but the emperor didn't take her to heart at all. Without even saying a few words, he got up and drove back to Qianqing Palace, which made her feel ashamed.

Thinking about this nobleman Ning's appearance is very good, and the eyebrows are somewhat similar to Concubine Mi, I didn't expect that nobleman Ning stood in the cold wind for more than an hour, but the emperor didn't even look at her directly, making people laugh for no reason .

However, this is in line with her wishes. Ning Gui fell out of favor, so naturally there is an advantage in falling out of favor.

This person, only when he is in a desperate situation can he discover his potential.

Concubine Tong was stroking her belly that was bulging day by day, and at the same time glanced at the palace maid Zi Yun standing there, a flash of calculation suddenly flashed in her eyes.

"You go to the respect room and tell me that this palace said that Ning Guiren is sick these few days. For the sake of the emperor's dragon body, Ning Guiren's sign should be removed first." Tong Guifei said with a smile.

After hearing Concubine Tong's words, Zi Yun said respectfully: "Yes, I'm going right now, servant girl." Saying that she blessed her body, she turned around and walked out of the hall.

Nanny Gui just came over with the anti-fetal medicine that had been boiled from the small kitchen, and happened to meet the maid Zi Yun who came out of the door with a tray in her hand, but she glanced at Zi Yun and asked in a low voice.

"What are your orders, Ma'am?"

As soon as Zi Yun heard Nanny Gui's words, she didn't dare to hide anything, she glanced inside, and hurriedly whispered: "I'm afraid I've heard about Mrs. Ning Gui, the empress ordered the slaves to tell the head of the respect room. The eunuch said that Mr. Ning Gui has suffered from the wind and cold, and it will be inconvenient to serve the emperor these few days."

Zi Yun's words were euphemistic, but Nanny Gui understood it all at once.

The empress knew clearly that she wanted to take the opportunity to stop Ning Guiren's green head card.

Nanny Gui thought for a moment, and then said to Zi Yun: "Go ahead, Mrs. Ning Gui is sick, so it's not easy to take care of her."

As Zi Yun listened, she always felt that there was something wrong with Nanny Gui's words, but she couldn't figure out what was wrong.After blessing his body, he walked towards the door.

In fact, Nanny Gui didn't feel that it was inappropriate for her mother to withdraw Ning Guiren's green head card, but she felt that her mother's move had a lot of meaning.

If her guess is correct, the removal of the green card is just the beginning, and Ning Guiren may suffer in the future.

After serving the empress for so many years, she naturally knew in her heart that the empress just wanted to use Ning Guiren to bring down Concubine Mi.

As the saying goes, the enemy of the enemy is your friend.She could see that Mrs. Ning Gui was also a scheming person, otherwise, she would not have won the emperor's favor under the eyes of the concubine Xiang, and finally let the emperor allow her to move out of Changchun Palace, leaving her alone live.

Once such a person is in a desperate situation, no one knows what she will do.

I am afraid that the empress also understood this point, so she asked the respect room to withdraw Ning Guiren's green head card, making Ning Guiren completely fall out of favor.

Thinking of this, Nanny Gui just sighed, she could see that she didn't listen to what she said to persuade her mother earlier.

Otherwise, even if it is for the child in the womb, they should raise the fetus in peace and contentment, and do nothing.

Speaking of this baby, Nanny Gui felt a little strange in her heart. Originally, the imperial doctor this week saw that this baby could not be kept. Who would have thought that this is almost seven months old, and it is still in the mother's belly. Staying there, seeing the empress talking to the child in her belly every day, she felt very uneasy in her heart.

Nanny Gui walked in with the anti-fetal medicine, and saw her mother sitting on the soft couch, gently stroking her protruding belly with one hand.

"Your Majesty, it's time to drink the medicine." This anti-fetal medicine is warm in nature, and it is a prescription specially found by Imperial Physician Zhou, so there is nothing wrong with drinking it every day.

Concubine Tong lowered her head, smelling the familiar smell of medicine, she knew that Nanny Gui had come in.

At the moment, he just waved his hand: "Leave it alone, I will drink it later."

Nanny Gui hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and put the medicine bowl on the small wooden table on the soft couch, then stood there silently.

It took a long time for Concubine Tong to raise her head and said: "I'm afraid Mama knows about it, I have ordered the people in the respect room to withdraw Ning Guiren's green card."

"What do you think about this matter?" Concubine Tong reached out to pick up the medicine bowl on the table, paused, then turned her head to look at Nanny Gui who was standing there.

Listening to Concubine Tong's words, Nanny Gui hesitated for a moment before saying, "My lady's thoughts, this old slave can also guess a little bit. It's just that this old slave feels that my lady is a little impatient."

Before Concubine Tong Gui could open her mouth, Nanny Gui said again: "In my opinion, it's better for the empress not to move. There are the most concubines in the harem, and the emperor will always get bored one day. When the spring begins, the newcomers should also enter the palace. At that time, the empress was afraid that no one would be able to get in the eyes of the emperor."

Seeing that her mistress seems to be listening, Nanny Gui continued: "It's not that my empress doesn't know that the emperor values ​​Concubine Mi now. If I say something that my empress doesn't like to hear, when the emperor sees her, who else does he value?" The empress only needs to think about it, who in this harem wants to harm her, and who is benefited? So the old slave felt that instead of doing it himself, it would be better to wait for the newcomers to enter the palace and let them fight by themselves. People in the palace are naturally high-spirited, and then we will all treat it as a theater."

Concubine Tong glanced at Nanny Gui, but did not speak, not knowing whether she had listened or not.

With her like this, Nanny Gui naturally couldn't persuade her anymore, but she knew in her heart that the empress probably didn't listen to these words.

It was only because Concubine Mi made a big disturbance in Chengqian Palace that day that the empress was reprimanded by the emperor and her position was demoted.For this alone, the empress hated her to the bone.

But the empress doesn't know, what is the momentary frustration in this palace, what kind of honor is all a matter of the emperor's words.

As long as the empress is still the daughter of the Tong family, or the highest-ranking concubine in the harem, the imperial concubine is still a noble concubine, it's just a word difference.

As for the palace affairs, the empress is now in a heavy body, so she should let Concubine De, Concubine Yi, and Concubine Rong take care of the palace affairs.

Concubine Gui didn't know what Concubine Gui was thinking about, she just picked up the medicine bowl on the table, and while drinking the medicine, she didn't know what she was thinking.

Nanny Gui watched from the side quietly, and wanted to speak, but felt her throat seemed to be blocked, so she only sighed inwardly.

No matter how much she talks, if the empress can't listen, it's better not to talk.This kind of thing can only wait for the empress to figure it out.

With Concubine Tong's order, the people in the respect room naturally removed Ning Guiren's green head card.

It's just that this news fell into Ning Guiren's ears by coincidence.

However, it distorted the facts a bit.It turned out that the Mi Concubine of the Qixiang Palace blew the pillow wind in front of the emperor, and the emperor ordered people to withdraw Ning Guiren's green head card.

When he heard the news, Ning Gui was so angry and angry that he smashed the teacup in his hand to pieces.He was already suffering from the wind and cold, but now he was so angry that he fainted all of a sudden.

For several days, Mrs. Ning Gui's illness came and went again and again, and she didn't get better after drinking a lot of medicine.The imperial doctor was invited to see it, and he said that Mrs. Ning Gui was depressed and his body was already weak after suffering from the wind and cold, so he did not get better.

After sending the imperial physician away, Ning Gui lay on the bed with a pale complexion, allowing the maid to feed her medicine.

"Add some more charcoal fire, why is it so cold in the room." Although Ning Guiren was covered with a thick brocade quilt, for some reason, his hands and feet were cold, and even his body felt a chill.

Listening to Ning Guiren's words, the maid's hand holding the medicine bowl paused slightly, but she didn't move for a long time.

Lady Ning Gui was already careful, seeing her like this, she somehow felt something was wrong.

"Tell me, what happened..." Before she finished speaking, Ning Gui couldn't help coughing. Seeing that, the maid hurriedly put down the medicine bowl in her hand and patted her on the back lightly.

When Mrs. Ning Gui got a little better, the maid hesitated and said: "It's not that those servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs have a pair of snobbish eyes. Seeing that the emperor has not informed the master for a long time, they think that the master has lost his favor, and even withheld the charcoal for heating." .”

Listening to the court lady's words, Ning Guiren's expression froze, he bit his lips tightly, and stared straight ahead.That way, it's like a demon.

"Master! What's the matter with you, master?" The maid hurriedly shouted, the master was ill, she originally wanted to hide it from the master, but how could such a thing be hidden.

If you want to complain, you can only blame the people in this palace who are used to seeing the wind and the wind, and the master has fallen out of favor, so it's not about being arrogant.

Ning Gui bit her lip until the blood came from the bite, but she didn't feel any pain.

"Master, if you don't like it and cry, why bother to humiliate yourself like this?" Seeing Mrs. Ning Gui like this, the maid standing there was naturally anxious.

These slaves, if the master is good, they may not be good, but if the master is not good, they will only be worse.

Hearing her words, Ning Gui felt even more uncomfortable.

When did she change back to the same as when she was in Changchun Palace, everything was unhappy.

Just thinking about it, she wished she could rush into the Qixiang Palace with a knife and kill that bitch Mi Fei.

If it wasn't for her, she wouldn't be where she is today.

The emperor doted on her because she was somewhat similar to Concubine Mi, but she lost his favor because of that bitch Concubine Mi.

But in the end, she still had a sliver of reason.

Don't say that her body is like this, even when she is in good condition, she may not be able to touch Concubine Mi at all.

Seeing the hatred in her eyes, the maid hurriedly persuaded: "Master, please be at ease for now, don't listen to those people's nonsense and get distracted."

Although everyone in the palace was saying that it was Concubine Mi who said bad things about the master in front of the emperor, the master would fall out of favor.

But she always felt that things were not that simple. Concubine Mi is a noble concubine, and there are two older brothers and one princess by her side, so how could she have trouble with her master, a petty noble?
