Concubine Mi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 178

In just one night, Concubine Xiang and Lady Ning died unexpectedly.The concubines, who were inexplicably terrified by searching the palace last night, heard the news from the palace on the second day.It is said that Concubine Ning ordered Ning Guiren to murder Concubine Mi with poison, and the emperor killed her in a rage, and after Ning Guiren was imprisoned in the Punishment Department and pleaded guilty, he also committed suicide by hitting a wall.

While everyone sighed, their eyes turned to Concubine Mi again, they heard that the poison was so powerful that Concubine Mi's appearance was already ruined.

Throughout the morning, there have been vivid rumors circulating in the palace, saying that although the emperor rested in the Qixiang Palace last night, he did not sleep with Concubine Mi.For a moment, everyone subconsciously felt that Concubine Mi might fall out of favor.

As if to confirm everyone's speculation, in the next few days, Kangxi did not turn over Wang Miheng's sign again, but went to sit in the Qixiang Palace after the next court, or ordered the House of Internal Affairs to reward some things.

No matter how many rewards there are, everyone still believes that Concubine Mi has really fallen out of favor.The emperor often went to see her and gave him things, but he was just out of consideration for his old friendship. If he really didn't mind her appearance at all, he wouldn't stay in Qixiang Palace anyway.

It is clear that the emperor still cares about this in his heart.

As long as you care about it, Concubine Mi will never turn around again.

In the Palace of Prayer.

Wang Miheng sat on the soft couch with a normal expression, stretched out his hand to take the medicine from Qiumei, and smelled it.

It's really bitter, just by smelling it, you know it's hard to drink.

She frowned, and mourned for herself in her heart for a while, then picked up the medicine bowl, and drank it in a few sips.

There is no way, the imperial doctor said, the toxins in her body have to be eliminated slowly, as for the red marks on her face, we can only wait for the toxins to be eliminated and see what God wants.

In a word, it is difficult to want to be good.

However, it was difficult for him. For Wang Miheng, who opened the golden finger, the problem could be solved by bubble spring water.

That night, she insisted not to let Kangxi sleep with her under the excuse that she was in a bad mood, just to soak in the spiritual spring in the space when no one was around. Unexpectedly, after soaking for only half an hour, the red marks on her face It's gone.

Naturally, Wang Miheng didn't dare to publicize the things that were done so quickly, so he took the pen in the space and dipped some potion to draw on it, it looked exactly the same as before, and it was not easy to wash off.

Just wait for a few days, when the imperial physician's medicine is almost gone, and then show your "true face" to others.

She didn't want to be found out that there was something wrong with her and treat her like a monster.

After all, the imperial physician in this palace is very skilled in medicine, and even the imperial physician said that she will never get better, but she not only recovered, but also recovered so quickly, if this spread, something would happen.

She was born to be most afraid of trouble, so of course it is impossible to make things difficult for herself.

After a while, even if they were surprised, everyone could only say that the imperial physician was skilled in medicine, or that she was blessed with great fortune, so she should have a good appearance.

After Wang Miheng finished drinking the medicine, he handed the empty bowl to Qiumei, who secretly glanced at her, as if hesitant to speak.

Wang Miheng raised his head and said with a smile: "Okay, don't look so preoccupied, and go and tidy up the things that the emperor rewarded you."

But within a few days, her palace was so full of things bestowed by Kangxi that she almost couldn't put it down.

Although Kangxi had always been generous, it was really embarrassing to be so generous.

I don't know, I thought he brought all the good things from the inner library.

Regarding Kangxi's move, Wang Miheng readily accepted it, and regarded it as saving a dowry for his daughter in advance.

Listening to Wang Miheng's words, Qiumei couldn't help but said: "Master can think about it, you don't even know what people in the palace say about master."

Wang Miheng glanced at her, reached out to take a piece of dim sum and took a bite, then asked, "What do you say?"

Wang Miheng's voice sounded calm and natural, with a hint of gossip.

For a moment, Qiumei really didn't know whether to be happy that her master was thinking too much or to be angry that her master was thinking too much.

Qiumei smiled wryly, and replied: "People in the palace say that the emperor despises the master, and hasn't turned over the green card of the master for several days. Although he has rewarded things, it's just that the emperor is thinking about the old love. They all say... the master You are out of favor."

In the past, Qiumei would not have cared about these words at all, after all, how the emperor treats the master, others don't know how she is the master's personal maid, and she still doesn't know.The emperor does not value the master, but puts the master in his heart.

Therefore, no matter what others say, she feels that the emperor is very good to the master, and she will not really get tired of the master.

But now, the master's appearance has flaws, and she no longer has the confidence in her heart.

Since ancient times, women have used their sex to serve people, and when their sex fades, they love to relax. Not to mention, there are so many beautiful concubines in the harem, and when the spring begins, new people will be selected to enter the palace.

In this way, what else can the master do to keep the emperor's heart.

Just thinking about it, Qiumei felt very scared in her heart, she didn't dare to think about how the master would stand on the day when the newcomer entered the palace and the emperor had a new favorite.

Hearing Qiumei's words, Wang Miheng didn't feel surprised at all. Although he couldn't guess the holy will, everyone in the palace, from slaves to masters, always speculated on Kangxi's thoughts.Now, Kangxi has not checked her brand for several days, and in the eyes of caring people, it is natural that she has fallen out of favor.

Wang Miheng smiled helplessly: "Okay, stop guessing, is it so easy for your master to fall out of favor?"

If she guessed right, Kangxi may not be here these days, probably because of her feelings.

That night, she pretended to be in a bad mood and "slept in separate beds" with Kangxi after being deeply shocked. In the past few days, every time Kangxi came over, he would comfort her both inside and outside, trying to make her happy.She said something boring casually, and he asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send so many things, saying that it was for her to enjoy and enjoy, so as to save her from daydreaming.

Therefore, Wang Miheng knew that she hadn't fallen out of favor in front of Kangxi, at least not now.

Of course, as long as she is willing, there will be none in the future.

The two have been together for such a long time, and there is still some tacit understanding.Although, Kangxi didn't explain at all why he didn't turn over her brand.

Seeing what Wang Miheng said, Qiumei couldn't say anything more, it was really useless to say anything, it all depends on the emperor's will.

Fortunately, the master is extraordinarily open minded, as long as he can think openly, everything is good, otherwise, how can I live this day.

I just hope that the emperor will always remember the past friendship, even if he doesn't stay in the Qixiang Palace, he will come over from time to time to sit and sit.

In this way, those slaves in the palace will not be easy to follow the wind and trample others.

"Master, I saw that the coral bracelet sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs yesterday is very beautiful. I showed it to the master. The master thinks that the jewelry is heavy, but this one is very good."

Wang Miheng nodded and told her to go down and get it.

She has also seen that string of red coral bracelets before, with the lapis lazuli Buddha head, the turquoise and stone beads, the emerald double happiness with the cloud on the back, and the single happiness with the pendant horn, it looks very elegant.

Wang Miheng smiled and took a bite of the dim sum in his hand, it tasted very good.

Late night
Qian Qing outside the palace
Li Dequan led an imperial doctor into the hall. Kangxi was sitting behind the dragon case looking at a memorial in front of him, but he didn't look up when he heard footsteps.

Li Dequan stood there, not daring to disturb him lightly, he motioned to the imperial doctor for a look, and was about to step aside, when Kangxi suddenly asked, "Is the imperial concubine's pregnancy all right these few days?"

Hearing these words, Imperial Physician Zhou hurriedly knelt on the ground, but didn't say a word.

Li Dequan had worked as a servant in the palace for many years, but he was not the kind of lackey slave. He bowed and retreated without waiting for Kangxi's order.

After Li Dequan left, Imperial Physician Zhou replied: "If you go back to the emperor, everything will be as I reported earlier, the fetus in the womb of the noble concubine is stillborn. If the diagnosis is correct, the situation of the noble concubine is already very critical."

Kangxi sat on the dragon chair, as if he didn't hear it, he waved his hand after a long time to signal him to back down.

Only then did Imperial Physician Zhou kneel down, stood up, and walked out of the hall.

For a while, only Kangxi was left in the hall.

Kangxi held a memorial in his hand, but his eyes did not fall on the memorial.

A few days ago, Imperial Physician Zhou reported to him that Concubine Tong's abnormal fetal image was due to taking the medicine of tiger and wolf containing mercury.

Now, it has become a stillborn child.

These are all the results of his acquiescence.

Kangxi leaned back in his chair, put the memorial on the desk, took a sip from the teacup on his right.

The Tong family needs a heir with the blood of the Tong family, but it is the most difficult for him to tolerate.

Now, the fetus in the womb has become a stillborn fetus, and it will be difficult to conceive in the future, so the Tong family will stop plotting the emperor's heir.

It's really self-inflicted, and it's the best of grace that he can still retain the position of Tong's noble concubine.

Nothing in this palace can be concealed from his eyes, how could he not know that Tong's plot to plot the emperor's heir and fetch medicine from outside the palace?

That medicine, even if it is a good prescription, becomes a medicine for tigers and wolves in Tong's hands.These are just because he doesn't allow them.

It is precisely because of this that he endured everything and kept her position as imperial concubine.

It is also because of these that he hastily dismissed the murder of Concubine Mi that day, causing Concubine Xiang and Lady Ning to lose their lives, but he did not let anyone investigate further.

Firstly, it is not good to make the Tong family too ugly, and secondly, it is because of a trace of shame in my heart.

After all, it was because of his intolerance that the Tong family had been in the palace for many years without giving birth to an heir.Including the late Empress Xiao Yiren, she was miserable until her death.

These are all because of a Tong surname.

Kangxi was thinking, when he heard footsteps, Li Dequan came in from outside the hall lightly, with a trace of panic on his face, and replied: "Your Majesty, the imperial concubine has activated."

After saying this, Li Dequan glanced at Kangxi's face indiscriminately, thinking to himself, these days, the emperor often summons the imperial physician of Zhou to come over, expressly saying that he values ​​the concubine's fetus, but in essence, I'm afraid it's...
