No wonder, the Qing Dynasty married so many princesses. The Mongols did not necessarily have much loyalty to the Aixinjueluo family, their former ally. They only believed in the strong and the descendants of Genghis Khan! Even the powerful Princess Shuhui
Daughters born to women of the Erjijit family may not be completely loyal to her! This is true for the Bahrain tribe, which is closest to the Qing Dynasty, not to mention other tribes.
Unlike the Han people, the Mongols have been infiltrated by the teachings of Confucius and Mencius for thousands of years. They have the shackles of loyalty and patriotism, so they are naturally easier to rule than the Mongols. And this loose and powerful Mongolian grassland is what the Qing Dynasty really needs to win over and what it needs to be wary of. Marriage after marriage,
They wanted to fuse the blood of the Aisin Gioro family with the blood of the Mongols, but the result was not very good. The Mongols still regard themselves as the descendants of Genghis Khan! No matter how many marriages there are, it will not change! But if this is the case, then the marriage will end
What’s the point?
The next day was the birthday of the eldest princess Gu Lun Shuhui. Urgun stayed in the tent and refused to go out on the grounds that the camp was under siege. The stalemate lasted until noon. Many guests had already arrived, and the eldest princess had no choice but to issue an order to withdraw the troops.
Wen Xi knew that it was only the people on the surface who were removed, but the ones in the dark were more difficult to deal with! Wen Xi just stayed in Urgon's camp, there was no place safer than this place.
"Girl, the black-bone chicken soup is ready. It tastes light this time. You can use some. I only had a bowl of bird's nest and two or three milk dumplings for breakfast. How could this happen?" Toya held a large bowl of black-bone chicken.
The soup is the same as last night, red date, lotus seed and black-bone chicken soup.
Wen Xi looked at it, and was flipping through a book of poems by Nala Rongruo in her hand. She couldn't help but think of that man, the most talented man of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, who was free of illness and should be living a happy life now, right?
After looking at the attentive maid, she said, "Put it somewhere. I'll drink it if it cools down."
Toya is pretty, and her eyes are clear and bright. She doesn't look like a girl with evil thoughts. Wen Xi already said that the black chicken soup last night was too strong, why couldn't she understand? Wen Xi's hands
He held the spoon and slowly swayed it in the soup. He shook his head slightly. This Toya just poisoned him. He didn't use any clever poison, but actually added arsenic! Wen Xi may not be sure about the other drugs, but arsenic.
There is a smell of bitter almonds. I only smelled a faint smell last night, and I didn’t suspect anything, but it was immediately clear when I entered the mouth. Arsenic is added to the black-bone chicken soup. Try it again today?!
Wen Xi's expression was indifferent, and her eyes only stayed on the poetry collection: "I heard, it doesn't seem to be very lively today."
Toya stared closely at the hand stirring the black chicken soup and said: "The eldest princess suddenly said that there is no need to make any arrangements."
Something happened in his own nest, so naturally it would be better to have fewer people. Anyway, it’s not a life span, so there’s nothing wrong with being simple. Looking at Toya’s eager and somewhat guilty expression, Wenru put down the spoon and said, “I
I don’t like eating this food.”
Toya let out a low sigh and lowered his head, feeling a little disappointed but also a little relieved.
Wen Xi put down the poetry collection in her hand, with a lazy look on her face. She said, "Your craftsmanship is very good, but I am pregnant. If you are picky, don't forget to take it from your heart."
"Pregnant?!" Toya's eyes were suddenly filled with shock.
Wen Xi hummed and said with a smile: "I heard from the Crown Prince that the desserts you make are excellent. I want to have a bowl of milk custard, add milk to eggs, add some salt, steam it, and don't put anything else!"
Toya nodded quickly, "Yes, I will do it now!"
Wen Xi once again asked: "Remember, don't let anything else go!" This was also the last chance for her. People will make mistakes, just once or twice. If there is a third time, it will be unforgivable.
Already.
It took a full hour to make a simple milk custard. Place it in a small bowl. The small bowl of custard exudes a faint fragrance, which is the pure fragrance of eggs and milk, and nothing else.
Wen Xi ate it with a small spoon. To be careful, she tasted the first bite carefully. Sure enough, there was no unpleasant taste, so she smiled and nodded: "It suits my taste very well!"
Toya finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The birthday banquet was kept simple, so it naturally ended early. When Urgon came back, he was a little angry and sat on the table with a sullen look on his face. He lifted the brocade box in his hand on the table.
Wen Xi didn't know what happened, so she asked, "What's going on, Your Majesty?" As she got closer to him, she smelled an extremely clear and rich fragrance, and her eyes couldn't help but fall on an exquisite brocade box, "This
What is it?"
Urgon said angrily: "Grandma said she didn't like this thing! She actually returned it in front of everyone!" After giving a carefully prepared gift, and being told that she didn't like it in front of so many people, Urgon's face was ruined.
It was completely damaged.
Wen Xi stepped forward and opened the brocade box. Sure enough, there was a fragrant jade slip with an auspicious cloud pattern inside. She quickly scanned it with mental energy and found that it was indeed the third to fifth level of exercises! Wen Xi's heart couldn't help but beat wildly! It's just that
But he just looked at it without touching it. He turned around and told Toya: "Go get a pot of strong wine."
Urgon interjected: "Take more, one pot is not enough."
Wen Xi looked at his depressed look and wanted to drink wine, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Your Majesty, I want strong wine, not for drinking! I want to show you something interesting."
Urgon's curiosity was suddenly aroused by Wen Xi, "What interesting thing?"
Wen Xi smiled and said nothing, just waiting for Toya to get a pot of strong wine, pouring it into a big bowl, and then said: "Toya, put that piece of fragrant jade into the wine."
The fragrant jade is only two feet tall, but it has a delicate fragrance. The taste is different from the Wenxi piece. Wenxi has been carrying it in the palace for so many years. How could she not know that spices can kill people, especially pregnant women? So Wenxi
I don't want to get my hands on this thing. Although it won't be a big deal if I touch it a little, the smell will only harm the body if I wear it day and night. I'm afraid that she won't miscarry until she is 1 month old, and then she will lose two lives.
!But Wen Xi didn’t want the child in her belly to be exposed to bad things, so she asked Toya to have a prosthetic hand.
The fragrant jade sank into the wine, and immediately emitted a faint milky white light. As the liquid swayed slightly, it formed a spectacle. Urgun couldn't help but be surprised: "How did you know that the fragrant jade has such a wonder?! It's simply too
Incredible!”
Wen Xi only said perfunctorily: "I saw it from a miscellaneous book. It will be more beautiful if I read it at night!" In fact, it is the same when placed in water, but the strong alcohol can wash away the unclean things on it. And to Tuo
Ya Dao: "Don't tell outsiders about this."
Toya nodded hurriedly.
Wen Xi smiled and said: "I heard that wearing fragrant jade can help you be careful during the day and sleep well at night. It is a rare and good thing."
Urgon looked away from the shining luster and smiled: "I see that you didn't sleep well yesterday. You can wear it with you from now on."
Wen Xi was waiting for his words, but she still declined: "It's such a good thing. It's better to give it to Uzhina to play with. She's bored out of her mind."
Urgunhun said nonchalantly: "You take it first. If she wants to play with it, just lend it to her for a few days." The word "borrow" is used, which obviously means that this thing has been marked with warmth.
All tags are gone.
Wen Xi looked at the extremely well-behaved Toya and asked, "Toya doesn't look like an ordinary maid. Is she your concubine?"
Before Urgon said anything, Toya hurriedly shook his head and said: "No! The slave is the maid!"
Urgon's expression suddenly became complicated. He looked at Toya as if he were looking at a maid, and murmured: "Toya...is Geya's sister."
Geya Wenxi was confused and asked, "What kind of girl is that?"
Urgun was silent for a long time, with a sad look in his eyes: "Beautiful, smart, and a little stubborn like you, but unfortunately life is as thin as paper."
"She is...your concubine?" Wen Xi asked. That tone was definitely not describing someone else's woman.
Urgun hummed and admitted, "Grandma doesn't want me to have a concubine, and Geya doesn't care about her status, and is willing to stay with me as a concubine."
A married woman is no different from a maid, just like an emperor's official daughter. She does the work of a maid during the day, and still waits on the master and works in bed at night. They are the hardest type of people.
Urgun couldn't help but feel resentful: "But my grandmother... she took advantage of my absence to marry Ge Ya to someone else! Ge Ya refused, so she hanged herself...
"After saying that, he quickly looked at Wen Xi's expression. He didn't seem to be jealous or angry because of it, so he felt relieved.
When Wuergun opened his mouth, he promised her the position of Xiangfujin. He had no intention of confronting his grandmother, so he naturally had rebellious intentions. Wuergun did not want to be the master, so he wanted to find a way to play against his grandmother, and Wen Xi appeared.
, giving her someone to sing the opposite role.
Wenxi is a little older and has rich experience. A woman can support a family, which shows that she has outstanding abilities. She is also calm in dealing with things, and has an imperceptible unruly temperament. Such people are not easily defeated, and they do not want those careless people.
Like a little girl, facing a strong and shrewd woman like Princess Shuhui, she fell instantly. People like Wen Xi can naturally resist longer.
Wenxi was indeed not angry. Urgon was using her, and she was using Urgon, and they were using each other. No one could blame anyone, everyone got what they needed. What's more, Wenxi also got the jade she had been waiting for for a long time.
Jane, if we can find Yu Ludai, Wen Xi will be able to get her wish.
Regardless of whether Yu Ludai is currently detained by Princess Shuhui, Wen Xi is sure that she will never dare to act rashly, so she has to launch a series of moves to kill her. Yu Ludai is a royal princess, if she dies
It’s not a trivial matter! Princess Shuhui would not be willing to kill Yu Ludai unless absolutely necessary. At most, she would be under house arrest to threaten Wen Xi. But Wen Xi guessed wrong. Princess Shuhui did not want to kill Yu Ludai.
, what about Aunt Sumala?
After a few days of dealing with it, Wen Xi was also a little confused mentally and physically. More importantly, there had been no news from Yu Ludai, which made Wen Xi more and more anxious. She was pregnant with a child again, and her appetite was not good. She wanted something a little greasy.
I couldn't eat any more, and within a few days I lost weight again.
Toya took Hu Yu's place and tried her best to get her appetizing food every day. Since Wen Xi told her that she was pregnant, she no longer added ingredients to the meals. Instead, she tried her best to make nourishing food for Wen Xi.
Eat something! It can be seen that Toya is not a vicious person. She has a deep affection for Urgon, which is why she cares so much about the child in Wenxi’s belly! Although Toya’s kindness is not for Wenxi, Wenxi still can’t help it.
Thank you, Wen Xi will insist on eating some even if it is for the sake of the child in her belly.
In the evening of that day, Wuergen was called again by Princess Shuhui. Wenxi was lying on the bed alone, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Suddenly a man wearing the clothes of Wuergen's bodyguard came in and whispered:
"Sister Galo——"
Wen Xi looked at this familiar person, her eyes became wet, and she said in surprise: "Sabitu? How did you get in? You are the imperial guard. Children of the Eight Banners are not allowed to leave the capital without permission!"
"Shhh--" Sabitu hurriedly shushed and took out a set of personal guard clothes from his arms, "Sister Galuo, I don't have time to explain so much to you. Put on your clothes quickly and come with me!"
I could only hear someone shouting outside: "It's on fire! It's on fire!"
Sabitu smiled and said: "Brother is quite good at setting fires."
Setting fire is indeed a good method that has been tried and tested. It is a trivial matter to start a fire on the grassland. The yurts are all very close to each other. If you are not careful, it will cause a catastrophe! Although the Bahrain camp is built near mountains and rivers,
Fetching water to extinguish the fire is also a big project and requires a lot of manpower. Naturally, even the maids in the tent were so frightened that they fled in all directions. Wenru, wearing the uniform of a personal guard, followed Sabitu and went out.
When Wen Xi saw that Sabitu was leading her to the position where she was leaving the Bahrain camp, she hurriedly said: "I still want to find Yulu Dai!"
Sabitu hurriedly pulled Wen Xi and said, "Don't worry, the sixth princess is fine! My sister will know when she sees the emperor!"
Wen Xi was surprised, has Kangxi actually come too?! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
