In June of the 35th year of Kangxi's reign, Galdan's general Danzila attacked Wengji in an attempt to rob military supplies, but was defeated by the Qing army. Galdan was no longer able to organize an attack.
The hope of a triumphant victory was imminent, but the prince was so evil that the matter seemed to be the work of ghosts and could not be found out at all. Because of Xiaomi Tao's extreme dependence, Wenxi could hardly even leave the palace. Xiaopoliu and Xiao Pomegranate
Yu Ludai was running outside all day, and she didn't know what she was busy with. She hadn't paid greetings to the Queen Mother for many days, and the Queen Mother didn't blame her. She knew about Xiao Mi Tao's injury and even sent her a lot of tonics. The Queen Mother also loved her.
Sun was also quite angry, but he criticized the prince's actions that caused the Shenxing Division to be overcrowded, but he still did not intervene in the end.
At noon that day, Wen Xi finally put Xiao Mi Tao to sleep. She put down the curtain and put some "spiritual mist" into the tent before quietly going out. She whispered to Lu Tan to take good care of Xiao Mi Tao and then took charge of the guard.
Aunt Rui from Yongshou Palace came back to report that Concubine Ping requested to see her.
Concubine Ping has been banned for more than a month, and she has always been peaceful and quiet. She seems to have an attitude of accepting her fate, which saves Wen Xi a lot of trouble. Now that she suddenly wanted to see her, Wen Xi couldn't help but wonder if An Xi had good intentions.
After thinking about it, not only did she and Pingbi have no grudges, but because of her suggestion, Pingbi was able to be raised by the tenth princess Shu Yierha. Although she was destined not to survive this incident, she could not blame Wen.
Fair.
After thinking about it, Wen Xi saw that Xiao Mi Tao was still sleeping soundly and would not wake up for a while, so she sent her companions to the Yongshou Palace.
Yongshou Palace is an excellent place, the closest to Kangxi's Yangxin Palace. It is the first of the six west palaces. It was specially given to Pingbi to live there, which shows that Kangxi took a fancy to her. Pingbi Hongxing came out of the warm house.
It was expected, but also unexpected.
Speaking of which, it was indeed Kangxi who felt sorry for her and gave her favors but did not ask her to have children. Anyone would be angry, right? After all, the concubine was from a high background, and she was not someone from a humble background who was not qualified to give birth to an heir. She had a high heart.
Being arrogant and being treated like this, she would inevitably do some irreversible things. It was unfair to her, but there is no fairness in the harem? What's more, Kangxi was the emperor, and everyone must be loyal to him, and
But he does not need to be loyal to anyone. Thunder, rain, and dew are all a favor from the king. He will never tolerate anyone's disloyalty.
As I was thinking about something, the Yongshou Palace was right in front of my eyes. The main entrance, the side entrance, and the corner entrance outside were all tightly guarded. Sabitun was the one responsible for guarding, so he naturally obeyed Wen Xi's instructions and didn't let anyone take advantage of them.
.
Wen Xi came here without any fanfare. She just asked someone to open the door a crack, and she was supported by Zhu'er. Xiaoluzi, Xiaoenzi and several eunuchs followed and entered.
Although the Yongshou Palace is closed, she has not been cut off from her duties as a concubine, and her servants are still there, but they are not allowed to go out. However, perhaps due to the confinement, the courtyard of the Yongshou Palace seems to have not been cleaned for a long time. Luo
There are canna petals all over the ground. I vaguely remember that Pingbi’s favorite flower is canna. She especially loves the bright red canna, followed by bright yellow, which are all extremely bright colors. They are planted in the flower beds on both sides of the main hall of Yongshou Palace.
Now the petals are all falling off, and the red and yellow petals have fallen all over the ground, and no one is cleaning them.
The cannas are tall and slender, and the flowers are large and bright, like a graceful and beautiful woman, but now they are all falling to the ground and being trampled by others.
Canna was originally born in the south. It likes sunshine and is not cold-tolerant, so it is rare in the north. If it is planted in the cold north, the roots need to be dug out from the soil in winter and placed in a warm place to be planted again next year.
.
Wen Xi seldom set foot in the palaces of other concubines, but she also knew that since Concubine Ping moved into the Yongshou Palace, large areas of canna have been cultivated here. The summers have always been beautiful and fragrant. It is said that Concubine Ping takes care of them all by herself.
Fake others.
Wen Xi casually picked up a petal that was still hanging on it. It was a bright red color like fire. The petals were thin and cool, but already a little soft. June was originally the time when the cannas were in full bloom, but it was warmer this year.
Come on, the cannas bloom earlier and fade earlier.
Wen Xi was watching intently when she suddenly heard a cry of a child in the palace. Wen Xi was shocked and suddenly thought of her own child, Xiaomi Tao, but then she knew that it was not her child. The tenth princess Shu lived in the Pingbi Palace.
Yierha, originally born from the sensitive and noble Zhang Jia family, is now recorded in the name of Pingbi, but I don't know why she is crying so hard? Wen Ru's heart twitched and she hurriedly entered the palace.
Then they saw the concubine with disheveled hair, a withered face but a vicious look on her face. She held a cane in her hand and struck the tenth princess. The cane made a rapid sound of breaking through the air and hit the tenth princess.
The tenth princess didn't even hide, she just kept crying, crying heartbreakingly.
Wen Xi couldn't bear it, and hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the cane from Ping Bin's hand, threw it to the ground, and roared: "That's enough! The tenth princess is of royal blood, and you can fight her?!" Is it because she is not her biological child?
, did you treat Shu Yierha like this?
Ping Bin's black hair was scattered, her bangs covered her eyes, and she stood there numbly. Suddenly, her throat choked up, and she muttered to herself: "This...should be enough."
Wen Xi didn't understand the meaning of her words for a while, but she suddenly caught a glimpse of the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes under her bangs. She tried her best to hold it back and said, "What I do is considered abuse."
Is she the tenth princess?"
"Eniang!" Shu Yierha threw herself into Pingbi's arms and hugged her thigh, "Eniang, don't let me go!"
Wen Xi was suddenly shocked. Maybe she had wrongly blamed Ping Concubine. She had heard before that Ping Concubine treated the tenth princess as if she were her own. The tenth princess was also very dependent on Ping Concubine. She was not allowed to have children, so how could she abuse this daughter that she got with great difficulty?
Concubine Ping's hands trembled, but she pushed Shu Yierha away forcefully. She raised her head, pushed back the tears that were about to fall, and then knelt down in a proper manner and kowtowed, "
The imperial concubine must have seen how the concubine abused the tenth princess just now!"
She had beaten her really hard just now, and Wen Xi could faintly see that there were bright red marks on the wrists and necks of the tenth princess. Children's skin is already delicate, and if it is not treated properly, it will scar them for life. Wen Xi
He asked intently: "What do you mean?"
"It is good to speak well when a person is about to die," Concubine Ping said in a calm tone. "The only one I am worried about is Shu Yierha. With a mother like Concubine, the Emperor will definitely be angry with the Tenth Princess when he comes back!"
Wen Xi suddenly understood that she just wanted to leave evidence of abuse on Shu Yierha. When Kangxi came back and saw his miserable daughter, although he would hate the concubine even more, Shu Yierha became the victim, and it was inevitable
She will get Kangxi's love and affection! Ping concubine can be considered a mother-hearted person.
Wen Xi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Since you care about the tenth princess, you shouldn't do things that will affect her."
Concubine Ping suddenly sneered and looked at Wen Xi: "The imperial concubine is deeply loved by the emperor, so how can she know the sufferings of concubines?!"
She asked such a rude question, but Wen Xi didn't feel dissatisfied after hearing it. Pingbi was arrogant in her bones, but she was by no means a dissolute person. It can be seen that she hated Kangxi deeply, so she did such a thing. Wen Xi
He smiled faintly and said, "Even if you can no longer have children, there are still ten princesses." With a daughter, you will not be lonely and helpless in this life.
The concubine raised her head and smiled bitterly, "The imperial concubine has two sons and one daughter. How can she understand the pain of not being able to have children! If it weren't for Shu Yierha, I might not even know how to survive!"
You can taste the bitterness in the concubine's words and her gentleness. She is also a proud and arrogant person, but it is a pity that Kangxi never took her to heart. When she entered the palace, she was the substitute of Queen Hesheli and her honorary favorite.
After several years, she found out that all these favors were false. Kangxi gave her contraceptive pills early to prevent her from having children.
"I heard about the seventeenth elder brother," Concubine Ping raised her head and looked at Wen Xi. "My child has suffered so much. I guess the imperial concubine hates the person who did it to her bones, right?"
Wen Xi suddenly became awe-inspiring and asked hurriedly: "Do you know who did it?!"
Concubine Ping stretched out her hand and pulled Shu Yierha to kneel down next to her, "I am a concubine who is about to die, but the only one who is worried is the tenth princess."
"Do you want me to take care of the tenth princess for you?" Wen Xi asked. If it was just to take care of the tenth princess, Wen Xi could agree to her request.
Concubine Ping stroked Shu Yierha's forehead, with kindness in her eyes, "Although I am in confinement, by chance, I got an insight into the inside story."
"Who is it?!" Killing intent burst out from his gentle eyes.
Concubine Ping pursed her lips and said with a smile: "This person is beyond the Imperial Concubine's expectations. As long as the Imperial Concubine is willing to allow the Tenth Princess to be your biological daughter, she will naturally know who this person is."
Biological daughter?! Concubine Ping actually asked Wen Xi to try to modify the jade certificate of the tenth princess?!
"Eniang, don't let me go..." Shu Yierha sobbed again and nestled in Pingbi's arms, "I will be obedient, Eniang, don't let me go!"
Concubine Ping's eyes were sour for a moment, and she said: "Eniang is leaving, going to a far away place. From now on, the imperial concubine will be Shu Yierha's biological mother."
Wen Xi tried her best to calm down her tone and said, "How do you know that I will definitely agree?"
Concubine Ping was very confident and said: "The imperial concubine will definitely promise to be a concubine. Firstly, the imperial concubine is heartbroken by the injury to her seventeenth brother, so she must take revenge; secondly, the imperial concubine and the palace have always loved the childish children."
, I will definitely take pity on Shu Yierha.”
"Okay!" Wen Xi took a long breath. She really must catch the person who harmed Xiaomi Tao. "I promise you. Now can you tell me who did it?"
The concubine Ping sneered: "I want a villain. Shu Yierha knows who that person is. If the jade certificate can be revised during the introduction, Shu Yierha will definitely inform the imperial concubine."
Wen Xi stared at Concubine Ping and said, "How do I know that you are not a liar?!"
The concubine Ping smiled and said: "The ten princesses will be entrusted to the imperial concubine in the future. Whether they can marry the husband they want in the future depends entirely on the imperial concubine. How dare the concubine gamble with the happiness of the princess's life and deceive the imperial concubine?"
Woolen cloth?"
Concubine Ping spoke sincerely and frankly, and Wenxi believed that she would never leave Ten. Naturally, Concubine Ping could not escape death, and Princess Ten was bound to be pitiful. Wenxi could help her without any problem, but she was just modifying the jade ultimatum. Wenxi
I don’t know if Kangxi will agree. After all, she already has two sons and one daughter. She muttered: "I can only try my best."
"With the emperor's love for the imperial concubine, as long as the imperial concubine is willing to try her best to ask for it, the emperor will definitely agree!" Concubine Ping smiled, and then took Shu Yierha and kowtowed to Wen Xi, "Concubine, I would like to thank the emperor on behalf of the princess.
Royal concubine!"
Wen Xi came empty-handed, and left with a daughter. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my biggest motivation.)
