An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

"Haha, Concubine Hua is so naive!"

Returning to her own small palace, Cao Qinmo sat on the kang, holding a string of beads in her hands, her eyes flickering.

Obviously, at this moment, she was secretly planning how to kill someone by borrowing a knife!

This plan must be able to both get rid of the thorn in the eye and conceal it from the public without being detected - this is not an easy task!

She narrowed her eyes slightly, and the details of the plan emerged in her mind.

First of all, Hua Fei needed to please the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, and since she was giving them advice, she had to appear to be perfect in every detail, at least to avoid being held directly accountable by Hua Fei.

But getting what Hua Fei wanted was not her ultimate goal!

Because of this, she needs to find a suitable "knife", someone who can be used by her.

This person must be motivated and capable enough to carry out her plan without suspicion being cast on her.

Obviously, there seems to be no other more suitable candidate except Zhen Huan.

A sneer appeared on Cao Qinmo's lips.

Now that she has found a suitable candidate, she will have to carefully plan a situation until the Queen Mother dies, making it look like an accident or someone else's conspiracy, while she can stay out of it!

Thinking of this, Cao Qinmo couldn't help but smile triumphantly.

She believed that as long as her plan was careful, she would succeed.

By then, she will become the winner of this court struggle, and those who once looked down on her will pay the price!

"Wen Yi, wait for mother!"

Cao Qinmo stood in the bedroom, tightly holding the precious Buddhist scripture that was brought from outside the palace.

There was a hint of sinisterness and complacency in her eyes, but she had already planned in her mind how to use this Buddhist scripture to frame Zhen Huan, and then make Concubine Hua hate Zhen Huan to the core.

By then, with new and old grudges added together, Concubine Hua would inevitably think that Zhen Huan was behind it.

In this way, Concubine Hua's hatred for her will become even deeper, and the resentment between the two sides will only become deeper and deeper!

Cao Qinmo also thought of her own "backup plan", which was that after Zhen Huan got into trouble, she would appear in private in time and comfort her. Then the two sides would hit it off and officially plan to join forces to deal with Concubine Hua!

……

A few days later, it was the Queen Mother's birthday, and Chonghua Palace was decorated with lights and full of joy.

The concubines from the six palaces attended the event in their best attire, each of them looking beautiful, and came to congratulate.

This was because the emperor held a banquet in the palace, and concubines and clan relatives all attended the banquet, making the scene extremely lively for a while.

The Queen, Concubine Hua and others had to behave harmoniously because the Queen Mother was present.

Seeing all this, An Lingrong couldn't help laughing.

This kind of scene can only be seen now, right?

However, not everything went smoothly, for example, Prince Dun, one of the royal relatives, had always looked down on Yongzheng, believing that he had come to the throne illegitimately, and he made things difficult for him in every way.

Like this time, he was unwilling to let it go, so he deliberately ridiculed him at the banquet.

Prince Dun picked up the wine glass, walked up to Yongzheng, and said in a sarcastic tone: "Your Majesty, today is the Queen Mother's birthday. You really took a lot of trouble. However, this banquet is far inferior to the support for Empress Xiaohuizhang during the reign of the previous emperor!"

Yongzheng was displeased when he heard this, but he couldn't show it for the sake of the Empress Dowager's face.

This Empress Xiaohuizhang refers to the second empress of Emperor Taizu, who was also the biological mother of Emperor Kangxi.

The Emperor's biological mother died early, but this stepmother lived an unusually long life. After the Empress Dowager passed away, the only person Kangxi could be filial to was this stepmother. He really had to support her with the whole world.

In contrast, Yongzheng's treatment of his own mother was certainly far inferior to that of his royal father due to various limitations.

At this time, the matter was exposed by the other party in front of these concubines and clan relatives, and he felt his face getting hot.

However, considering all parties, Yongzheng had to suppress his anger and said with a fake smile: "Prince Dun, you are joking. I have just ascended the throne and there are still many shortcomings. Now the treasury is empty and the Queen Mother does not want to waste money and manpower, so only my family will have fun together!"

Yongzheng's words were so clear and logical that it was hard to find fault with them.

Unfortunately, Prince Dun was looking for trouble, so he refused to give in and continued, "Your Majesty, please don't be so modest. When the last emperor was in power, the country was peaceful and the people lived and worked in peace. Now that you have ascended the throne, you have made the people live in misery. What will happen to this ancestral legacy?"

Once these words are spoken, the person who speaks these words should be killed!

When Yongzheng heard this, he could no longer bear it.

He stood up, glared at Prince Dun, and said, "Prince Dun, don't go too far! Since I ascended the throne, I have been working diligently and conscientiously for the welfare of the people. Today is the Queen Mother's birthday. If you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame me for being rude!"

When Prince Dun saw that Yongzheng was angry, he felt a little scared.

But when he thought of his brothers who had been killed, he still said, "Your Majesty, are you going to punish me? I am your brother, are you going to touch me?"

"Haha!" Yongzheng sneered, "Prince Dun, don't think that just because you are my brother, I dare not touch you. As the Son of Heaven, I must naturally maintain the dignity and stability of the court. If you dare to provoke me again, I will never tolerate it!"

Seeing Yongzheng's firm attitude, Prince Dun knew he would not gain any advantage. In the end, several clan members all said some polite words to help smooth things over, and he returned to his seat in shame.

However, the atmosphere had already reached a freezing point. The Queen Mother, who was the protagonist, suppressed her dissatisfaction and said kindly, "Today is a family dinner. Yun? drank too much, so he said some drunken words. Don't take it to heart, and don't be so restrained. Just be casual. I have felt the filial piety of the Emperor and you, and I don't care about these empty formalities!"

After that, she raised her glass and gestured to everyone.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager had taken the initiative to say this, everyone knew that this was a way out given by the Empress Dowager, so they raised their glasses. After three rounds of drinks, the atmosphere eased a little.

However, despite this, like Yongzheng, the Empress Dowager's dissatisfaction had not completely dissipated.

The banquet continued, and everyone tried to avoid mentioning sensitive topics to avoid causing embarrassment again.

The Queen Mother said no more, only occasionally chatting with the concubines around her.

An Lingrong and others originally wanted to take this opportunity to please the Queen Mother, but they didn't expect Prince Dun to do this. All of a sudden, they couldn't perform and could only wait for another opportunity later.

After the banquet, the empress dowager bid farewell to the emperor and concubines, and returned to Shoukang Palace alone with a group of palace maids and eunuchs, still feeling depressed.

For her, who had experienced the chaos of nine princes fighting for the throne, the Queen Mother certainly knew that today's events were just the beginning, and there would be more troubles waiting for her and her son in the future!

We must find a way to solve these problems, otherwise the emperor's position will be threatened!

The relationship between mother and son is one in which both prosper and suffer together.

If something happens to the emperor, will it be okay for me, the empress dowager?

"Zhuxi, go contact Longkodo. I have something to tell you!"

After some contemplation, the Queen Mother finally decided to contact an old friend. After all, the other party could be a help to her in the court.

"Yes!"

Faced with the order from the Queen Mother, Sun Zhuxi certainly did not dare to raise any objection and could only suppress the worries in his heart.
