Zhonggong Order GL

The Empress Dowager was recuperating from illness, Dong E's family was in front of her, and the empress was suspended from power and stranded in the middle palace. For a while, there was no leader in the harem. The concubines saw the emperor approaching Concubine Shuhui, and now they all followed Concubine Shuhui's lead.Of course, it looks like this on the surface, but in fact, only they know what everyone thinks in their hearts.

There is no need to go to say hello in the morning, Concubine Shuhui respectfully sent the emperor to court soon after, concubines came to visit one after another.The Yikun Palace, which had always been rather deserted, became lively.Almost half of the concubines in the harem came, and only three did not come—the concubine Zhen of Zhong Cuigong, the sister of the Dong'e clan, Concubine Tong of the Tong Jia family of Changchun Palace, and the only Han concubine, the concubine Ke concubine Shi of Yanxi Palace.Basically all the empresses and concubines of the Borzigit clan went to visit, and of course there were concubines with low ranks who rushed to show their hospitality, and the Yikun Palace was full of guests.

There was an endless stream of concubines intermittently, inquiring about the emperor's attitude towards the abolished empress.Concubine Shuhui remained calm, and said, "The emperor's golden words, the imperial decree has been issued, we as concubines just listen to it."

The plausible answers fell into the ears of different people, causing the concubines to have different thoughts, and after a few pleasantries, they dispersed.

Concubine Shuhui's eyes flickered, looking at Longfu Gate not far away, her eyes locked on the majestic cornices exposed by Kunning Palace.When the crowd dispersed, she whispered to herself, "The Horqin family cannot be defeated. Since you are unable to control the palace, don't blame your younger sister for taking the place." In any case, the favored concubine Dong E cannot be allowed to enter the palace.This is not only related to the position of the middle palace, but also related to the honor and disgrace of the Horqin and Dong E families.Now Dong E's family has been honored and favored, the emperor loves the house and Wu, Dong E's concubine is more powerful than the harem, Dong E's family is also favored, and they have repeatedly held important positions in the court.And the Horqin family, if not for the empress dowager, would have been wiped out by the emperor long ago.

Sangzhi stayed up almost all night.Not long after the morning court the next day, I heard the maids rushing to tell each other, whispering again and again.It turned out that the emperor had made up his mind to abolish the empress this time, and the superiors in the early court tried to blame the empress for her crimes, and discussed with the ministers about the abolition of the empress.What a big deal it is to abolish the empress, the courtiers exploded at once.What's more, the emperor has already had a criminal record of abolishing the empress, and this time he proposed to abolish the empress, how could the minister have any reason to agree!However, the emperor was determined, no matter how much the minister tried to persuade him, he would not waver in the slightest.The ministers talked a lot, but the only ones who kept silent were Horqin Baylor who had no real power, the empress' elder brother E Ji'er, the elder brother of the abolished Concubine Jing Gu Lun's son-in-law Bier Tahar, and the Minister of Internal Affairs who held a heavy persuasion and the father of Concubine Dong E Dong E · E Shuo.

Borzigit Ejier and Borzigit Biltahar belonged to the same family, and their respective fathers, Horqin Belchaorji and Prince Wu Keshan of Horqin Zhuo Liketu, are both the elder brothers of the current Empress Dowager, but The two elders of the family were far away in the grasslands and had never entered Beijing, but the two young men who stayed in the court had no real power but fame.The father and son of the Dong'e family hold important positions, and their status is obvious.

The only two members of the Horqin family who remained in the court did not say a word, and did not dare to speak too much.In front of Huangwei, they, the courtiers, had no choice but to bow their heads and obey orders.What's more, among the women of the Horqin family who stayed in the harem, apart from the four Anju concubines who were not favored, the two most important ones had already been abolished, and the other had not been favored since entering the palace.Ejier and Bier Tahar had no resentment, but they didn't dare to resist, and they didn't even dare to say a word for their relatives.

Dong E E Shuo did not say a word.He was born in the army and was a rough man. Now his daughter Concubine Dong E is honored and favored in the palace, but she has always told him to be cautious.E Shuo, the minister of the interior, obeyed the imperial concubine's words, seeing the emperor's eyes sweeping over him several times, he just pretended not to see it.Although he is a soldier, he also understands the principle of high meritorious deeds. Dong E's family is already extremely honored and favored. In addition, Dong E's concubine has earnestly instructed him. The Minister of the Interior, E Shuo, has always acted cautiously. Whenever the emperor has matters in the harem, he will only say nothing. By the emperor's sanction.

As a result, the court came down early, and there was still no conclusion about the matter after the abolition.The emperor sneered, "There is no result of the discussion today, and we will continue to discuss it tomorrow. When will the day after the abolition be discussed, and when will the calculation be finished."

"That's what the emperor said!" The court ladies heard it and imitated it vividly.Sang Zhi felt that his heart was in his throat, and he knew that he must not procrastinate any longer, and he had to find a way to let the people in the Compassion Ning Palace know as soon as possible.

As soon as the first month came out, there was another snowfall.Sang Zhi looked at the sky full of white snowflakes, and thought of an extremely risky idea.

During these days, the imperial concubine was waiting in the Palace of Compassion and Peace, and Luying was also by her side, and Sang Zhi couldn't see her at all.Green Warbler couldn't go this way, so she was extremely distressed.There was really no other way, so she bravely turned her mind on Emperor Shunzhi.This is a method that no one can think of or dare to think of.Emperor Shunzhi probably loved Concubine Dong E very much, even though Concubine Dong E did not return to the palace, he still came to Chengqian Palace from time to time.It happened that it was snowing heavily that day, and Sangzhi was kneeling outside the hall. When she saw Emperor Shunzhi standing by the window, she said in a moderate voice, "Your Majesty has always been weak, and I don't know if I can take it with me in such a cold day." Bring enough thick clothes."

When Emperor Shunzhi heard this, he said in a daze, "You, come here!"

Sang Zhi lowered her head, pretending to be frightened, and shrank and knelt outside the window.

"You just said that your empress didn't bring thick clothes?" Emperor Shunzhi frowned, and Sang Zhi glimpsed him from the corner of his eye, but his expression was quite pleasant.

"If you go back to the emperor, the empress has been away for more than ten days, so she brought warm clothes, but it's snowing heavily today, and the servants are worried that there are not enough warm clothes."

After hearing this, Emperor Shunzhi hurriedly called for someone, "Come here, bring a thick leather coat, and drive to the Palace of Compassion!"

Seeing that the eunuch brought the thick leather coat, Sang Zhi quickly stepped forward to take it very naturally, and followed Emperor Shunzhi respectfully.

Emperor Shunzhi looked at her suspiciously, "What are you doing next?"

"Back to the emperor, the empress always likes to be clean, and only the courtiers of Chengqian Palace are used to it. Since warm clothes are to be sent, how dare the slaves not go." She didn't look up from the beginning to the end.

Emperor Shunzhi chuckled, "You are an interesting court lady, and you are quite good at taking jobs."

Sang Zhi didn't dare to answer.Hearing Shunzhi say again, "But what you said is true, she likes to be clean, so you can follow along."

"The slaves obey."

Sang Zhi suppressed his excited heartbeat, and followed Emperor Shunzhi into the Palace of Compassionate Peace with a stooped back step by step.Fortunately, she was following the emperor, so she didn't have to salute all the way, until she reached the inner room of the Compassionate Ning Palace, she caught a glimpse of the old man lying on the bed and Concubine Dong E waiting in front of the bed.There was an old court lady standing quietly beside her, and Sang Zhi guessed that it was probably Lagu Su Ma.Just didn't see the green warbler.Where did the green warbler go?But at this time she didn't think about it.The entire Compassionate Palace was silent, Emperor Shunzhi greeted the Empress Dowager when he entered, the Empress Dowager coughed softly, "Why is the Emperor so free?"

"It's better to come and see the queen mother." Emperor Shunzhi was talking, but turned to look at Sangzhi.

Sang Zhi didn't understand what he meant, the corner of Emperor Shunzhi's mouth twitched, he walked back a few steps, took the thick clothes from her hand, and put them on Concubine Dong E, before talking to the Empress Dowager again, "How does the Empress Dowager feel?"

The empress dowager glanced at Emperor Shunzhi's movements, but she didn't seem to notice it, she just smiled and said, "It's hard to worry about the emperor, Aijia is much better."

On the other hand, Lagu Su Ma looked at Sangzhi, quietly backed away from the queen mother's bed, and walked up to her, "You still not backing down?" It turned out that the queen mother couldn't bear the cold and didn't let outsiders in.It's just that Sangzhi came with the emperor, and the palace personnel didn't stop him.Now that Sangzhi is handing over the clothes, it stands to reason that he should consciously leave.

Sang Zhi trembled, and quickly said, "Yes." She got up halfway, and suddenly looked at Concubine Dong E, seemingly unintentionally, "I want to report to you, the empress of Kunning Palace has been ordered to be under house arrest, and outsiders are not allowed to enter without permission. Can I still send Tianhan's charcoal?"

Dong Eshi was startled, "What?"

Emperor Shunzhi immediately looked gloomy, "I ask the imperial concubine everything, what use are you for!"

Sang Zhi pretended to be frightened, and knelt on the ground with a pale face, "The emperor spares my life! The empress spares my life! It's just that the empress's palace notice has stopped now, and the matter of abolishing the empress has not yet been finalized. The servants don't know whether to follow the Yongshou Palace The delivery is still according to the original delivery of Zhonggong..." The more she spoke, the softer she was, and she fainted from fright at the end.

Of course not really dizzy.

"Get her out!" Emperor Shunzhi yelled violently, and Concubine Dong E looked at him sadly, with mixed feelings in her heart.With tears in her eyes, she said, "Send me back to Chengqian Palace." The maids hurriedly carried Sang Zhi out.

In an instant, the Compassionate Ning Palace was so quiet that the sound of the needle falling to the ground could be heard.

Until the empress dowager coughed violently to break the silence, Aunt Su Ma hurriedly supported the empress dowager, "Empress dowager!"

Concubine Dong E was also so frightened that she hurriedly comforted the Empress Dowager, but it might as well be that the Empress Dowager coughed too much and spit a mouthful of phlegm on Concubine Dong E's face.It seems to be purely unintentional coincidence, but it is extremely accurate.Concubine Dong E was stunned.

Emperor Shunzhi stood up angrily, "Aifei!"

Before the Empress Dowager could speak, Concubine Dong E hurriedly took out a handkerchief trembling, wiped off the phlegm on her face, and said respectfully, "Don't be angry, Empress Dowager!"

The queen mother ignored her, grabbed the pillow behind her and threw it on Emperor Shunzhi's face, "You still have Aijia in your eyes!"

Shunzhi's face was flushed with anger, and he wiped Concubine Dong E's face himself, and said in a hateful voice, "The queen mother has a son in her heart!"

"You!" The queen mother didn't come up in one breath, which frightened Concubine Dong E.Aunt Su Ma gave the Empress Dowager a favor while kneeling in front of Emperor Shunzhi, "I beg the Emperor to say a few words less! Anyway, the Empress Dowager is still ill. If you really let her anger out, your Majesty, aren't you afraid of being infamous through the ages?" ?”

Emperor Shunzhi snorted coldly, and angrily pulled Concubine Dong E away.

Concubine Dong E is not human at both ends, and it is difficult to do things inside and out.But she couldn't tolerate her choice, and was dragged away by Emperor Shunzhi's strong wrist.

There was a burst of commotion in the Compassionate Ning Palace, and it took a long time for the Empress Dowager to calm down.

Aunt Su Ma fed hot water to the Empress Dowager, and gently rubbed her back, "Queen Dowager, why do you bother?"

With a cold face, the Queen Mother scolded angrily, "Unfilial son! Because of a vixen, the harem is disturbed!"

"Yes, yes, it's all the emperor's fault." Aunt Su Ma coaxed softly, "But you are still sick, so you dare not be angry."

"Can I not be angry?" The Empress Dowager slapped the table angrily, but turned to look at Aunt Su Ma and asked, "You don't know about this?"

"The empress dowager forgives your sins, how can this servant not know." Lagu Su Ma smiled, "It's not a day or two to abolish the empress. You are currently ill, the empress dowager, so it's important to take care of your health."

The empress dowager narrowed her eyes, "You have more ideas."

"This servant is only thinking of the Empress Dowager, the Queen Mother's well-being is the greatest blessing for this servant."

The Empress Dowager patted her hand, sighed, "Poor Empress." Then asked, "Who is that court lady?"

Su Ma Lagu paused, "Sang Zhi."

"Sang Zhi?" The Empress Dowager laughed, "I said so."

"It's not that you're out of your mind." Aunt Su Mala said, "You know how to pretend to be dizzy. It's just that the Queen Mother is so angry with you, it's her fault."

The Empress Dowager smiled tolerantly, "It's a child's trick." The old man closed his eyes and lay down on the bed again, "It's true."

"It's also a blessing to make the empress look good." Aunt Su Ma said again, "But it's rare to be loyal."

"Forget it, just turn a blind eye and close one eye," said the Empress Dowager. "The empress feels aggrieved, and Aijia knows. If there is a maid who is loyal to her, let her keep it."

Aunt Su Ma chuckled, "The queen mother is kind, but it's a pity that the queen doesn't know your painstaking efforts."

"The Ai family doesn't expect her to know that it is enough to be a good queen obediently." The empress dowager sighed, "The blessings of a person's life are all given by God. How much blessing you are destined to have, you You can only receive so much blessing. If you have too much, you will be condemned by God, and God will have to make up for it. Some people just want things they shouldn’t want, who is to blame?”

Aunt Su Ma paused her hands, sighed inwardly, pursed her lips and lowered her eyes and said, "What the Queen Mother said is true."
