The Fourth Master's Dog

Everyone in Kangxi's harem seemed to have found a common target all of a sudden.

There are so many strange and bizarre methods that they can never be used.

However, those concubines who were unfavored and had no connections could only make a few sarcastic remarks in front of Empress Niohuru.

They didn't have the strength or courage to go and see Concubine Tong.

There are no people and no money.

What can you do to harm me?

The palace of Empress Niuhuru has been very lively these days. Originally, because Empress Niuhuru was not in good health, it was stipulated that she could only come to pay respects on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month.

These days are neither the first nor the fifteenth day of the month.

All the concubines in the harem came to the Queen's palace without any prior arrangement.

However, apart from saying some sour words and subtly hinting that the Queen's position was unstable, he wanted Queen Niohuru to deal with Concubine Tong.

No matter how the concubines below jumped, the expression of Nianhulu, who was sitting on the throne of Queen, did not change at all. She still looked virtuous and kind.

Queen Niuhulu was not in a hurry now, but instead had a smile on her face.

I just heard the news that some group of people brought smallpox seeds from outside the palace into the palace, intending to attack Chengqian Palace.

Queen Niohuru glanced at all the concubines present.

Except for Concubine Tong, all the other beauties in the harem are here today.

After looking around, he paused for a few seconds at the concubines in the positions of Rongpin, Huipin, Yipin, and Depin.

Queen Niohuru is now unsure who did it.

Originally, Concubine De Uya was the most suspected. Her grudge with Concubine Tong was known to everyone in the harem, but her biological son was raised by Concubine Tong, so it should be impossible no matter how you think about it.

But these are not important.

As long as it is aimed at Concubine Tong, she will not stop it.

There was an imperceptible hint of ease and joy in Queen Niohuru's tone.

"Well, everyone in the harem is a sister. Why bother complaining here? Go talk to His Majesty if you have the guts."

"You should be more open-minded. Being so narrow-minded is not conducive to the relationship between the sisters in the harem."

"Okay, if there's nothing else, go back to your respective palaces."

"It gives me a headache to listen to you guys quarreling."

Queen Niohuru waved her robe and left.

Leaving behind a bunch of concubines in the harem staring at each other in dismay.

Concubine Yi was a straightforward person who could not stand being bullied. She held the hand of her personal maid and immediately left the Queen's palace.

On the way back to Yikun Palace, Concubine Yi never stopped talking.

"Everyone in the harem knows that on the day His Majesty issued the imperial decree, the Empress smashed all the porcelain in the palace. And you still have the nerve to accuse others of being narrow-minded."

"He is the queen, but he really thinks he has such a big face."

……

Fortunately, there were fewer people going back along this road, and Concubine Yi was the first to come out, so her personal maid did not say anything to persuade her.

Otherwise, if the news accidentally reached the ears of Empress Niohuru, and considering that she was not broad-minded, Concubine Yi would definitely suffer.

Leave with good fortune and return with bad luck.

Not only did he not achieve his goal, but he was also accused of being narrow-minded.

No one went back in a good mood.

Even Concubine De Uya, who was very pretentious, had a momentary twisted expression.

It’s hard to say what mood the people in the harem were in as they left the Queen’s palace.

Anyway, at this moment Queen Niohuru was in a good mood.

A happy smile appeared on his sick face.

Knowing that smallpox seeds had entered the palace, they just waited for someone to send them to Chengqian Palace. With Concubine Tong's weak body lying on the sickbed, she would definitely not survive the smallpox.

Queen Niohuru hadn't laughed so happily for a long time.

---

In the past few years, except for the moment when I became the queen, there was a sense of exhilaration.

The rest of the time, Queen Niohuru was not happy.

She was not favored by Kangxi, and he chose her to become the empress after weighing the interests.

In addition, she has been in poor health in recent years and has been rarely favored, so the possibility of her becoming pregnant with a prince is almost non-existent.

Moreover, she felt that Kangxi would not allow any more legitimate sons to be born.

Her chances of getting pregnant were even slimmer.

Queen Niohuru felt that she was just trying to survive in the harem, living one day at a time for the honor of her family.

My health is getting worse and worse, and I don’t know how many more years I can last.

The family recently wanted to send her biological sister to the palace.

A bitter smile appeared on the young face of Queen Niohuru.

The family is so cold-blooded, she isn't even dead yet, but they're already thinking of sending her own sister into the palace.

As she laughed, Empress Niuhulu burst into tears.

I cried and felt that I had been a tool of the family all my life.

If you enjoy the wealth and glory given by your family, you must devote your whole life to it.

There was no room for resistance.

If you show even the slightest reluctance, then your parents and relatives will show an expression that indicates you should be like that.

It makes me, who has been spoiled since childhood, feel guilty and uneasy. Yes, that's how it should be.

It seems that if a woman does not contribute to the family, her life is meaningless.

Queen Niuhulu looked at the young and pretty face in the mirror.

I don't understand, why is she not favored?

She was no worse than Tong Jia in any way. In terms of family background, status and appearance, no one in the harem could compare to her.

Kangxi only gave her the respect that a queen deserved, not a single bit of favor.

Kangxi was unwilling to even put in the appearance of doing anything for her, except covering her with a quilt and chatting with her on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month.

It was difficult for Empress Niuhulu to see Kangxi.

When Queen Niohuru lamented and sighed for herself, laughing and crying.

It seemed that all the secrets in the harem had run to Chengqian Palace.

After a few days of recuperation, Concubine Tong looked better, but she had suffered heavy bleeding due to premature birth.

The imperial physician prescribed that one should observe two months of confinement after childbirth to facilitate the body’s recovery.

"Mammy, what's going on? Did you find something unclean again?"

When Concubine Tong saw the wet nurse coming in with something, she knew that something unclean had entered Chengqian Palace again.

These past few days, the harem was like a drop of water dropped into hot oil.

What monsters?

All popped their heads out.

Don't you even look at your own weight?

He dared to attack her Chengqian Palace.

Concubine Tong glanced at him indifferently and lost interest.

"There's nothing new about the people in this harem. There's just these fabrics with red flowers, questionable food, incompatible food, and incompatible plants."

"They are all so stupid, yet they all come in at the same time."

“It’s hard not to notice.”

"Mammy, have someone check to see who has reached into Chengqian Palace. I will chop them off one by one and return twice as many as I can."

The wet nurse, who was supposed to leave after hearing the order, still had a serious look on her face, and there was an imperceptible tremor in her voice.

"My queen, smallpox has been brought into the palace."

Concubine Tong straightened up all of a sudden, her eyes filled with fear, her hands shaking slightly.

"Who is it? Who wants to harm me?"
