"How is the imperial concubine doing recently?" Kangxi asked Li Dequan who was on the side after finishing the final memorial.

"Prince Wang said that the imperial concubine is fine and her pulse is very stable." Li Dequan quickly bowed and replied.He has been by the emperor's side for so many years and still can't understand the emperor's mind. If the emperor has never set foot in Qixiang Palace in the past few months, it seems that he has forgotten the noble concubine Niu Hulu, but it is still passed on from time to time. He summoned the imperial physician Wang to check on the imperial concubine's health, and the things that should be rewarded were not left behind, and he couldn't figure out what his master was thinking.

"The harem is not very stable recently, don't let those things disturb the purity of the noble concubine." Kangxi sipped his tea and frowned slightly.The servants in the tea room of Qianqing Palace have become more and more careless recently. The heat of the tea is completely wrong, and even the best tea will be ruined.

Li Dequan hurriedly asked the maid on one side to come forward to exchange tea, and then changed the subject: "The emperor told someone to go to Yongshou Palace this afternoon to have a meal with Wang Chang. Now is the time, just now Wang Chang is by his side Some people have also come to ask, does the emperor want to leave now?"

"Alright, I haven't seen Concubine Wen for a long time." Kangxi stood up, and Wei Zhu quickly handed Kangxi a black mink fur cloak to put on, "Is Concubine Wen still the same lately?"

"My body has improved a lot, but I still look lazy. The imperial doctor said that this is a heart disease, and it needs to be rectified slowly." Li Dequan signaled the young eunuchs to prepare the sedan chair before following Kangxi's pace, "Recently The Sixth Princess also often stays by Concubine Wen's side, which relieves Concubine Wen a lot, and I heard that she can occasionally go out for a walk in the imperial garden recently."

"That's good, just tell the Tai Hospital to use all the medicines." Kangxi nodded.There are many concubines who have lost their children in the palace, but Concubine Wen is the saddest one.Maybe it's because she has been looking forward to this child for a long time, once she had great hopes but suddenly failed, she couldn't accept this fact at all, so she has been refusing to get out of the pain.Kangxi's affection for Concubine Wen was far less deep than that for Empress Renxiao, and he treated her more to appease the hearts of the Hesheli family, so he ordered the people in the Imperial Hospital to observe Concubine Wen's body at all times, and if there was anything unusual Report to Li Dequan.

"Yes." Li Dequan replied.

"There is also the noble concubine, the anti-concubine medicine must be the best. You go to the elder brother's place to pass the word, let the sixth elder brother and the tenth elder brother go to Qixiang Palace to accompany the noble concubine." Kangxi hesitated for a moment, " Send the pair of mahogany and silver-threaded hundred-year-old purple jade Ruyi in my treasury to the noble concubine, as well as the wolf skin that Mulan hunted in autumn last year, all together."

Li Dequan quickly said yes, he had to follow the emperor to Yongshou Palace, so he winked and told Wei Zhu to do it quickly.

It would be a lie to say that Kangxi had no affection for An He, but he still thought that it would be better to avoid going to Qixiang Palace before An He's pregnancy was ripe.Faka did a good job as an errand in Jiangnan, Yan Zhu performed very well in Fujian, Fu Bao and Yin De also devoted themselves to their duties, even Alinga, who was a bit stubborn in the past, has become more stable recently.The Niu Hulu family has been married to the Aixinjueluo family since the Huang Taiji period, and the heritage accumulated over the years cannot be easily replaced by other families.Be it cautious or fearful, he can't tolerate Niu Hulu's family's influence continuing to grow.

"Hey." Wei Zhu and Li Dequan responded in unison.

An He didn't know that Kangxi had sent her something at this time, and she had just ordered Jinxiu to inquire about the follow-up matters of the rectification of the harem.Concubine Liu Shu has already been grounded, and the concubine De concubine sent someone to supervise her copying the palace rules every day, and she couldn't relax for a moment. The concubines who had been friends with concubine Liu Shu now avoided all of them.

"I heard that Yi Guiren and that nobleman were also killed this time. Although they were not grounded, the treatment of fines, copying books, and hanging green cards is the same as that of Concubine Liu Shu." Feiqing said after serving hot water.These two concubine Liu and Concubine Liu have always been at odds with each other, and their mouths have always offended many people and called them few people. Since they are old people in the palace, they did not give others winks. I thought that after so many years, the two of them should learn to be good. Thinking of being so sharp-tongued.This time, they were the two who spoke ill of Anhe behind their backs.

"It's the two of them again?" An He smiled and said after taking a sip of boiling water, "Why do they not learn well and always love to jump? After so many years of jumping, the emperor's only remaining compassion After the torment is over, they will be the ones who will suffer at that time. The emperor has no time to pay attention to them for the time being, and if the emperor finishes the affairs at hand, then they will feel better."

"Yi Guiren and that nobleman are probably resentful because they haven't seen the emperor for many years." Feiqing said, "Every time a few newcomers come into the palace, they will be angry with them. Maybe they think that it is because of the newcomers that they fall out of favor. The reason for entering the palace has never been found in myself."

Some people always feel that their misfortunes are caused by others, so they harbor resentment and vent their dissatisfaction on others.An He stroked her slightly curved stomach, and said calmly, "They can make as much noise as they like, anyway, they must be the ones who suffer the consequences in the end."

"In addition to this, there is Empress An." Feiqing said again, "Empress An cannot bear to be taught a lesson. When the empress dowager was still alive, she had already reprimanded her, and this time she also joined in. Empress Dowager Although it is not as severe as the empress dowager, but still ordered punishment, and said that he will tell the emperor to let the emperor decide."

Concubine An Li is the granddaughter of Li Yongfang, Fuxi's concubine, and her grandmother is the daughter of Prince Rao Yumin Aixinjueluo Abatai. Not very prominent.But also because of her inextricable relationship with the Aixinjueluo family, she was able to enter the palace as a concubine, and she was also the first batch of concubines to be formally canonized as the main concubine. With Concubine Yi.

An He didn't know how he offended them. These women made fun of her if they had nothing to do. They were the ones who were punished in the end, so why didn't they know how to give up?Look, Concubine Jing, who used to be in the same spirit as Concubine An, knows the lesson, and now she is living her own life in peace, Concubine An doesn't know how to learn, does she think that she has Aixinjueluo flowing in her body? With her blood, will Kangxi spare her again and again?

"Master, Eunuch Wei has brought you something by order of the emperor." An He was about to open his mouth to speak, but Shan Shan hurried in with a smile on his face.It has been a while since the emperor gave his master a reward, so this time with such a big fanfare, does it mean that the emperor still has a master in his heart?

An He got up from the couch with Feiqing's support, and just about to get up, he saw Wei Zhu walking in and saluting: "The emperor told the concubine not to come down to thank you. The imperial concubine likes it."

"Thank you, Eunuch Wei, for a trip." An Hecai said after someone sent a reward, "Please, Eunuch Wei, please speak for me, and say that I have thanked the emperor for the reward."

"The emperor has been busy with government affairs recently and couldn't come to see the imperial concubine, but he still misses you. No, knowing that the harem has been very busy recently, the emperor ordered his servants not to disturb the empress's cleanliness with these troublesome things." Wei Zhu weighed it He touched the purse in his hand, and then said with a smile, "This servant has to go back and teach the maids in the waiter, so I won't disturb the imperial concubine's rest. This servant will leave first."

"It seems that the emperor still loves the master very much." Fei Qing smiled and helped An He to sit down.

"Take it all away." An He glanced at the complete wolf fur, "Let's not get involved in those affairs of Concubine An and the others, and the emperor probably doesn't want us Qixiang Palace to get involved." If she was aggressive, maybe You have shifted yourself from the position of the victim to the position of the persecutor.

"The servant knows."

I don't know if I don't check, it turns out that apart from gossiping and spreading rumors, some people in the harem will buy people's hearts and place nails in other people's palaces to inquire about news for them.Concubine Tong frowned slightly when she saw the list of people drawn up after the investigation. There are many slaves in the harem, and many people would willingly do such things for money.It's just that this matter is so involved that even Yuqing Palace found out that other concubines had arranged for it, so she can't decide this matter.

"This is a serious matter, let someone invite the emperor." Concubine Tong gritted her teeth and hurriedly ordered Cui Tao beside her.

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten? The Emperor is currently accompanying Wang Chang, so why would the slaves dare to disturb you?" Cui Tao replied.

That's right, Wang Changzai is so favored, and now she's pregnant again, so it's really not appropriate to disturb her.Although this palace pays attention to superiority and inferiority, once the emperor has the support, the low-ranking concubines might not be able to stand upright.Concubine Tong lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then said: "First find someone to tell Eunuch Li Dequan, and let him slowly inform the emperor. The other palaces are fine, but this Yuqing Palace is a place we can't touch. We can wait for the emperor to show up."

"Yes." Cui Tao responded, and was about to go out and order someone to do it.

"Wait!" Concubine Tong hurriedly shouted, "You can talk about this matter yourself. Also, only Ben Gong knows about this matter for the time being, so don't say it casually, otherwise the people behind the scenes will get a chance to escape after scaring the snake."

"Your servant understands." Cuitao nodded, "My master has been in the palace for so many years, and today I can finally look good in front of the emperor and the empress dowager."

Concubine Tong smiled slightly, and waved her hand to signal Cuitao to do it immediately.Concubine Tong sighed quietly when she was the only one left in the room. For the time being, she was the only one who found out about this matter. A woman in the first place is involved, let alone the matter of meritorious service, I am afraid that a large group of people will be offended before the matter is resolved.But in order to gain the emperor's favor and trust, she had to take this risk.

Pray that everything is safe and well.Concubine Tong closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, there was no hesitation or hesitation.
