Chapter 238: The Emperor’s Skills! Happy Children’s Day!)
Chapter 238 The emperor is so clever! (Third update, Happy Children’s Day!)
Author: Eunice
Jin's concubine died in the garden, so naturally the manager of the Old Summer Palace could only handle the funeral rites, which saved Shu Jin from the busy work.
On this occasion, rumors were indeed spreading in the Forbidden City. Rumors even spread that the careless eunuch was actually bribed by Concubine Dun, just to make Chun Haoxuan burn down.
As the concubine in charge, Shu Jin was about to take action to suppress the rumors, but Yongzheng took action first. With an imperial edict, he killed countless eunuchs and maids who were talking nonsense.
For a time, the palace was filled with tremors, and no one was allowed to talk nonsense.
The high-pressure policy has indeed immediate results.
"Over there, Concubine Xuan, please comfort me. I will issue an order to make Concubine Jin my concubine, and Hongshi can continue to be raised by Concubine Xuan." Yinzhen came to Chengqian Palace with a straight face, "My Do you understand what I mean?"
"I understand!" - It's a carrot and a stick! As long as the concubine Xuan doesn't make a fuss, Horqin can get dignity, and the concubine will also have the prince to love her. But if the concubine makes a fuss, there will be nothing. Even the sixth prince However, the emperor could also use the concubine's old age as an excuse to choose an adoptive mother for him.
Shoukang Palace was filled with a bitter smell of medicine that could not be dissipated.
"Your Highness." Shu Jin slowly walked to the bed and bowed to her.
Concubine Xuan's temples were gray, and the disease had made her lose weight. The wrinkles on her face were also much deeper, and she looked much older. She smiled bitterly and said, "The emperor asked the concubine to come, right?"
Shu Jin sighed and hurriedly relayed the emperor's original words: "The emperor promised that he would issue a decree to confer the title of concubine Jin and give her a grand burial. The sixth elder brother can also continue to be raised under your knees."
Concubine Xuan couldn't help but sneer, "The emperor is so clever!"
Shu Jin didn't know what to say for a moment. Yongzheng could threaten even his own mother, let alone a concubine.
Shu Jin stepped forward and tucked the quilt for her, "The deceased is gone. Please express my condolences, Princess."
Concubine Xuan sighed tiredly, "Don't worry, I'm not old and stupid yet." - Who in this world can stand up to the emperor? Horqin is not what she used to be, and she is just a powerless old lady. concubine.
But Concubine Xuan couldn't help but feel sad in her heart, "Saren was at fault, and I'm not surprised that someone wants her life. I won't even... hate Concubine Dun too much. However, the emperor is too cold. It’s too thin! After all, Saren gave birth to a prince for her!”
Concubine Xuan had already preconceived the idea that Concubine Dun was responsible.
Shu Jin didn't dare to discuss with the concubine how cold and cruel the emperor was, so he turned to the concubine and said, "Actually, it may not be Concubine Dun. Concubine Dun was also ill a while ago. Maybe someone wants to blame Concubine Dun." Concubine, that’s why I killed my concubine.”
Concubine Xuan was silent for a moment, "Concubine, are you doubting Concubine Xi?"
Shu Jin quickly said: "I don't mean that, I mean." - Well, that's what she meant!
The person who could do such cruel things in Yuanmingyuan was certainly not an ordinary concubine. Apart from Concubine Dun, only Concubine Xi had such skill.
If Concubine Dun could be blamed and she fell out of favor, Concubine Xi would naturally not be lenient. Even if the blame failed, Concubine Xi would not have suffered any losses.
Because the emperor hated Concubine Jin so much that he would never investigate thoroughly for Concubine Jin.
"His Majesty, the dead cannot be resurrected. Please don't mourn too much. The sixth brother is still young and can't live without you." Shu Jin quickly said softly. Shu Jin was really afraid that Concubine Xuan wouldn't be able to bear it for a while. , too! Then how should we deal with this hot potato, Brother Six?
Concubine Xuan couldn't help but feel a sore nose, "Poor Hongshi, he lost his biological mother at a young age..."
Shu Jin hurriedly held Concubine Xuan's hand: "For the sake of the sixth elder brother, please cheer up the concubine. The sixth elder brother can't live without you."
Concubine Xuan nodded heavily, "I understand that if I can't bear it, I will only make the evil people who killed Saren proud. I will not make my relatives happy and my enemies happy."
Shu Jin breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.
At this time, a Mongolian nun came in with medicine and said, "Toffee, the medicine is ready."
Shu Jin quickly took the medicine bowl himself, blew on the hot air, and tasted it himself - ah, it was really bitter, "Good medicine tastes bitter, Princess, take it while it's hot."
After serving the old concubine, he administered medicine and gave her a few gentle words of comfort. Seeing that she was able to cheer up, Shu Jin left Shoukang Palace with peace of mind.
Concubine Xuan did not make any fuss, and the emperor's mission was successfully completed.
Yongzheng actually kept his promise, and before Concubine Jin had passed her seventh birthday, the emperor issued an edict to posthumously concubine her as Concubine Jin, and to mourn her in a grand ceremony.
When she was alive, Concubine Jin planned this and that for the sake of her concubine, but after she died, she easily became a concubine.
But what's the use of this?
This winter, a concubine from Horqin was buried. After the glorious burial, the Forbidden City never made any waves again.
No one dared to talk about this concubine Jin. Concubine Xuan also lived far away in Shoukang Palace, worshiping Buddha all day long, just like other old concubines, living like a layperson.
Concubine Dun's favor has not wavered, and she and Ning Guiren are still the most favored concubines in the palace.
As expected, Concubine Dun did not dare to question the emperor, she suppressed all doubts in her heart.
It was as if the Queen hadn't said anything that day.
This kind of situation is what Shu Jin likes to see the most. The two of them are equal, the harem is peaceful and peaceful, and she lives in the position of a noble concubine and is happy and free.
In a blink of an eye, it was already the first month of the eighth year of Yongzheng's reign, and the eighth prince was about to turn one year old. Shu Jin once again generously handed over the eighth prince's Zhou Zhou ceremony to Concubine Dun.
Well, you go ahead and throw money into it.
Yongzheng was very satisfied with Shu Jin's generosity and kindness, so he found an excuse and rewarded him with many silks, satin jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
I have to say that although this dog emperor was a scumbag, he really didn't treat her badly materially.
"This red jade gourd pendant is nice. It's just the right gift for my eighth prince as a first-year gift." This red jadeite is bright red and has a very good meaning.
Lu Xue couldn't help but mutter: "Why do you have to be so generous?"
Shu Jin chuckled and said, "It's just a red jade pendant." - In the past few years as a royal concubine, Yongzheng was very generous every year on birthdays. He often got generous rewards for good errands done on weekdays. Shu Jin now also She is considered a rich woman. - Although she does not have much liquidity, she does have a lot of valuable and good things.
And the things given by the emperor are not easy to reward to others, so they can only be used as gifts.
Lan Ruo smiled and said, "Then I'll go find a festive box and put it in it."
Shu Jin nodded slightly, then picked up the jade Buddha plaque on the side and looked at it carefully, "This plaque is also of excellent quality. Let's keep it as a birthday gift for the third princess."
Lu Xue smiled and said, "That's quite suitable."
Shu Jin couldn't help but laugh. This girl was partial. She gave it to people in her own party. No matter how valuable it was, she would mumble and talk tightly when she gave it to others.
The client is blocked and updated.
Sisi is now 29 weeks+, almost seven months old. Recently, she is able to sleep more and more, and can sleep ten hours a day o(╥﹏╥)o
The third trimester of pregnancy is very hard. My buttocks hurt after sitting for a long time. I feel tired after walking a few steps in the community. I feel uncomfortable lying down. I often have pain in my ribs. I often wake up during the night to urinate. After I am pregnant, I also suffer from the problem that my nose is often stuffy.
There are still two and a half months until unloading...
I don’t know how much longer it will last, I’ll just stick to it one day at a time.
