Chapter 154 The Death of Tong Jiashi
Hearing what Fuquan said, Kangxi reached out and patted him on the shoulder to show comfort.
Everyone's luck is different. Fuquan's descendants' luck is obviously much worse than his own.
"Let Baotai enter the palace to study! I'll help you take care of it." Kangxi could only comfort Baotai and Yinfeng more. After getting closer, the second brother should not worry about his son's future anymore?
Fuquan quickly thanked him, expressing his wish, and the two brothers looked at each other and smiled, looking a little happy.
The main purpose of Kangxi's southern tour was to control the river, observe the people's sentiments, investigate the officials, and tell the people that the emperor still thinks about them.
But the emperor's trip...was really extravagant. Ming Xuan kept receiving gifts along the way. The key was that these gifts were not received by her on her own initiative, but sent by Kangxi.
Not only Guangxuan, but also other concubines who accompanied him on the southern tour, and even Yinxuan and Yinzhen were quite a few.
Yinzhen didn't like these flattering rich businessmen and officials very much, but Khan Ama didn't speak, he could only read in his heart.
However, what Ling Yinzhen didn't expect was that someone would give gifts to the imperial concubine and the prince's brother in front of Khan Ama, could it be an acquaintance?
So he said: "There is a man named Cao Yin who asked me to bring you and the prince's brother a great gift."
"Cao Yin?" Ming Xuan hadn't heard this name for a long time, she frowned and asked, "Where did you see it?"
Yinzhen replied: "When I went out with Ama Khan, Ama Khan looked familiar with the person and even joked with each other. But I have never heard of this person's name."
"Cao Yin, like Nalan Rongruo, used to be someone you Khan Ama trusted. This man is not small, but he is a bit good at management. Later, Khan Ama arranged him to go to some place for training." Ming Xuan explained.
Yinzhen nodded understandingly, Han Ama was indeed more tolerant of Nalan Rongruo than ordinary people, even though he is now terminally ill, he often sends imperial physicians to take care of him.If it is the same as Nalan Rongruo, it is not surprising that Khan Ama is close to him.
Just listening to the tone of the imperial concubine, thinking of what she said about Cao Yinshan's management... Yinzhen didn't have much affection for this person.
Ming Xuan didn't have much affection for Cao Yin, the only thing she was interested in was reading his grandson's masterpiece.
I hope that in my lifetime, I can see the original and the ending.
It's just that what Ming Xuan didn't expect was that her initial dislike would soon turn into disgust.
Just when Kangxi took a private visit with Yinxuan and Yinzhen in Weifu, the accompanying Cao Yin said after the end that he was sending a few people to serve Kangxi.
"Your Majesty, I want her!" When Yinzhen came back, a girl in pink was following behind her. Mingxuan didn't pay attention at first, only thinking that Yinzhen's face was smelly, but when she was about to speak, she froze and pointed directly at her. Looking at the girl said.
Kangxi nodded directly, just now when he accidentally saw the girl's face, Kangxi knew that she could not be allowed to live outside, just because she was [-]% to [-]% similar to the imperial concubine.
At first glance, it was a plot against the imperial concubine, how could Kangxi not agree?
Ulan was ordered to step forward and drag the person away.
Mingxuan turned her head to look at Cao Yin, and snorted coldly: "Okay, Cao Ziqing, you're so brave to carry this with me!"
"No, ma'am, please stay!" Cao Yin quickly bowed and said, "I have 1 guts, and I don't dare to argue with my majesty! It's just that I don't know this man, I just saw him, and I was very taken aback. .”
If you let him know who plotted against him, he will never forgive him.
"I haven't met you very often. After so many years, you can find someone so similar to me? I can't help but suspect that you have ulterior motives for me!" It is not surprising that there are similar people in the world, It's just that Cao Yin brought people in front of him, who is he asking her to serve?Ming Xuan felt disgusted just thinking about it.
Cao Yin felt that he couldn't explain it clearly, even if he jumped into the Yellow River, he couldn't clear it up.I'm really not that stupid, sending someone who is similar to the imperial concubine, wouldn't it completely offend the crown prince and the imperial concubine?
Now it is probably being calculated by someone. I have seen those women who paid tribute before. Doesn't this girl look like this?So he looked to Kangxi for help.
Kangxi turned his face away, but said nothing.
What is the purpose of a person so similar to the imperial concubine appearing in front of me?Regardless of whether Cao Yin knew it or not, a crime of negligence cannot escape.
And let him be out for so many years, but he can be easily calculated by others, even the person who gave it to him can be dropped?Isn't that disrespectful?
"It's a good thing that the emperor didn't look at the face of his concubine, otherwise he would be plotted against?" Mingxuan, the number of women in the harem, didn't care at all. The most favored Wang family was selected in the draft the year before last. Weak ones, if they have nothing to do, they can find Kangxi to act like a baby, but Mingxuan has no taboos.
Ming Xuan was really disgusted to just send a woman who was younger than herself and so similar in appearance to her.
Hearing Mingxuan's words, Kangxi hesitated for a moment, and said, "A real imperial concubine has a more beautiful heart, how could I be that kind of superficial person?"
Ming Xuan nodded in satisfaction, and left angrily.
"I think Cao Yin probably didn't know about it. He was also taken aback when the woman was pushed out." Yinzhen explained to Mingxuan on the way.
Today, he found something wrong at a glance, and later he suggested that no one should be brought in, so that the imperial concubine could have a look.It's not good that the empress is being plotted against, and you still don't know?
Ming Xuan sarcastically said: "Flies don't bite seamless eggs." If he didn't start this problem, would he be plotted against?After so many years, you still want to give the emperor a woman?
Back at her place of residence, Wu Yun hurriedly told Ming Xuan, and the girl spoke up, she was a concubine daughter of a county magistrate surnamed Chen in Jiangsu, she was originally looking for her sister-in-law, but her sister-in-law already had The person I like, the two sisters have always had a good relationship, so they changed people temporarily.
"It was said that she was afraid of being discovered at first, so she put on makeup to cover it up..." Ulan rubbed Mingxuan's shoulders and said softly.
Ming Xuan nodded, there must be no problem with this identity.
She called people over and ordered them to wash her face.After looking at it carefully, I found that it was not that similar. In the state of bare makeup, the original seven or eight points became only five points.
And this girl's skin is much worse than mine, not as white or as tender as my own!
Not only that, but she also discovered that the reason why she felt so similar at first glance was because the girl's behavior and small movements were exactly the same as her own, and they were not too different.
The girl has an explanation for this, the parents at home love their sisters very much, and they hired a nun to teach them, and she learned from her.
This matter was really disgusting. When Kangxi sent someone to investigate, the nanny disappeared. The County Magistrate Chen found out that the ancestor should have some relationship with Mingxuan.
Mingxuan's maternal grandmother was surnamed Chen, and she had the same grandfather as the County Magistrate Chen, but lost contact during the war.Then I got in touch again a few years ago.
Therefore, according to her seniority, Miss Chen is still Mingxuan's aunt...so it is not surprising that they are somewhat similar.
Ming Xuan really laughed out of anger, what exactly is the person behind this doing?You don't think that you will bear it because of the slight blood relationship, right?
Mingxuan was not too polite, and directly brought up the previous punishments without blood staining one by one, and then came to a conclusion that this matter really had something to do with the Chen family. The nanny who taught the sisters of the Chen family was also an old acquaintance. The never-married aunt next to my mother.
"There must be someone behind this Chen family, I beg the emperor to make decisions for my concubine." Ming Xuan put the matter found out directly in front of Kangxi.
Kangxi nodded and said comfortingly: "As you said, I see you not because of your skin. Put your heart in your stomach, and I will protect you."
Ming Xuan lowered her head, gritted her teeth, and said, "The people behind are really disgusting to my concubine, and Cao Yin is really disgusting!"
After Kangxi comforted Mingxuan, he silently took out the unopened secret decree from the table, and then sighed leisurely.
Concubine Tong Guifei conspired with Wu Yashi to do this matter a few years ago, and originally wanted Xiao Chen to divide Mingxuan's favor.Of course, things went so smoothly, there were shadows of Guerjia's family, Niu Hulu's family and even Nalan's family.
This matter has not been investigated, but it cannot be investigated in detail. It is disgusting, but it cannot cure their crimes.
The Wu Ya clan has long since become a penitent cultivator, Concubine Tong Gui...
Kangxi thought for a while, and wrote a demotion note to send back to Beijing, but before the note was finished, he received the news of Tong Guifei's death.
people died?
What a coincidence!
Kangxi looked at the imperial decree in his hand, handed it to Liang Jiugong for him to destroy, and then re-wrote the imperial decree to bury Concubine Tong Guifei with the imperial concubine ceremony.
After writing this imperial decree, Kangxi felt as if he had bid farewell to his young self, and there was no wave in his heart.
Kangxi told Mingxuan the result of his own investigation, that it was Concubine Tong...
But Concubine Tong is dead...
Mingxuan had no choice but to swallow the swear words that had just come to her lips, and asked in confusion, "Why on earth does Concubine Tong always plot against concubines? She is the most favored at the beginning, isn't she?"
"I don't know." Kangxi shook his head and said, he really didn't know. Eight or nine years ago, his cousin was the most favored and had a high status. How could she be regarded as the imperial concubine Ji at that time?
"When people die, the light goes out, so be it! I can't always be worried about this matter? It's not worth it to pay for other people's mistakes." Ming Xuan sighed, otherwise, what else could I do?
After Kangxi left, Ulan asked, "Isn't Concubine Tong Guifei doing it alone?"
"Isn't it true? The Emperor should already know about it." Ming Xuan replied.
The person behind it actually started to plot eight or nine years ago, how could it be Tong Guifei who did it alone?It's just that the emperor has some scruples!
After handing over the person to Kangxi, Ming Xuan pushed him aside.
"The imperial concubine always trusts the emperor." Liang Jiugong echoed when Kangxi felt that Mingxuan was so coquettish.
Kangxi thinks about it too, from what she taught Yinfeng early in the morning, he can find that this person has a good impression of him!
"The candidate for the crown princess has to be carefully considered..." Kangxi felt a little headache when he thought of his mother-in-law, the Guerjia family. He really didn't expect that there would be a shadow of the Guerjia family in this matter?I don't understand what this mother-in-law is thinking?
I saw a girl from the Guerjia family as a princess, but now, because of the relationship with the mother-in-law, once Yinfeng finds out about this, according to his habit of venting anger, the princess with this surname will never be favored in this life up.
Although Kangxi was very satisfied with the girl from the Guerjia family, her words and deeds were in line with Kangxi's requirements for the crown princess.But Yinfeng's concubine should satisfy him.
Fortunately, fortunately, no one has announced it yet.
