The Woman Behind Kangxi: The Biography of Virtuous Concubine

Chapter 50
Yonghe Palace.

"The decree has arrived!"

He also heard the eunuchs' soft and thin voices coming loudly and loudly, breaking through the solitude that had been closed for nearly two months in the Yonghe Palace.The heavy palace gates were opened one after another, and everyone in the palace looked around curiously, even Liuli ran out to inquire, Fei Cui was uneasy, wondering what news the eunuch would send this time.Only Ningde was still sitting in the room without arrogance or impetuosity, with a look of neither humiliation nor surprise.

"The virtuous nobleman of the Yonghe Palace accepts the order!"

Ning De walked out briskly and saw that it was the chief eunuch. Liang Jiugong, a celebrity in front of the emperor, personally delivered the decree, which showed that the emperor attached great importance to this matter, his heart seemed to be moved, and his face remained as usual and he knelt down.

"The sinful concubine Wu Ya received the order."

"By God's blessing, the emperor's edict said: The virtuous Wu Ya of the Yonghe Palace is dignified and graceful, but the eagle is overturned, and the rebellious son Yang Qilong is frantic, boldly colluding with the eunuch Chang Lu of the Yonghe Palace to frame the palace people, intending to disturb the palace. It can be punished. Now the eunuch Chang Lu will form a formation on the spot, and the virtuous Wu Yashi will serve in the Qing Palace tonight."

"My concubine thanked the Lord for his grace." Wuyan Ningde ignored the whispers behind him and got up to accept the imperial edict.

Liang Jiugong smiled slightly at Ning De: "Congratulations to Master De for his grievance, especially for the Holy Family."

Ningde smiled faintly: "Eunuch Liang is being polite."

After sending Liang Jiugong away, Ning De adjusted his clothes a little, but first went to the Palace of Compassion and the Palace of Chengxi, and went to invite Ann in both places, before turning into Concubine Tong's Palace of Chengqian.

Concubine Tong was rewarded by her servants. As soon as Ning De entered Chengqian Palace, Concubine Tong had already come out to welcome her.

"Sister, I have wronged you these few days." Concubine Tong took a few steps forward and said, holding Ning De's hand tightly.

"Sister, where is it? I know it's thanks to my sister's help that I can come out so soon this time."

Concubine Tong took Ning De's hand and walked and exchanged greetings, and walked straight into the inner room of the palace, screened off the servants, and asked with concern: "Do you know who did it? On the surface, it seems that my sister has been wronged. It was released lightly, but no matter how you think about it, it is not clear. I wonder what the emperor thinks?"

Ningde smiled, and there was endless sarcasm in the corner of his mouth, but his tone was still calm: "Sister, how could such a smart person as the emperor release me without knowing it? I'm afraid it's the people behind this who let me go The emperor dare not investigate further."

Concubine Tong smiled: "There is no one who the emperor would not dare to investigate, is my sister just kidding me?"

Ning De straightened up and said carefully: "I've been thinking about it in the palace for the past few days, and I'm actually afraid. I'm lucky that I can release it this time. I recognize that letter. It was originally Wu Sangui's rebellion, the emperor wanted Withdrawing the domain, Wu Yingxiong wrote to the Empress Dowager to ask the Empress Dowager to persuade the Emperor not to make an order. This is not a big deal, Wu Yingxiong was originally a nephew of the Empress Dowager, and because of Princess Jianning, he also visited the palace before The empress dowager also informed the emperor about this, but the emperor didn't take it seriously, and I don't know if that idiot didn't put it away. God told me to catch a glimpse in the Palace of Compassion. You want to be able to come and go freely in the Palace of Compassion? As for those who walk, besides me, who else is often visited by the emperor and who has to walk around frequently according to etiquette?"

Concubine Tong's expression changed, "Could it be..."

Seeing that Ning De shook his head and swallowed his words, Ning De said indifferently: "It's not good to talk about things that have no basis."

"Then she?"

Ningde nodded: "I didn't dare to think that it was her. Why would she bother to embarrass me, a little nobleman, with such great power? I'm afraid it's not enough for her eyes, but the emperor's nothingness made me more sure." If it is thoroughly investigated, the balance of the harem will have to be reshuffled. Her natal family has a pivotal power in the court. Now that the world is in turmoil, it is time for the emperor to employ people. For me, a little noble, the emperor focuses on the court. Never ask me to embarrass her."

Concubine Tong looked very unwilling: "Sister, let's just forget about it?"

"What if it's not like this?" Ning De asked rhetorically.

Concubine Tong let out a long sigh: "When Empress Xiaochengren was here, I really couldn't see that she still has such means!"

Ningde also sighed slightly: "She is also protecting herself, but she is smarter than us and knows that the best defense is to attack, otherwise how can she shock those young masters." Ningde smiled lightly, "In this harem But none of them are vegetarians."


Concubine Tong was a little helpless: "According to what you say, we will be slaughtered by others?"

There was no expression on Ningde's face: "I was thinking too impatiently at first, and I wanted to swallow it into a fat man, but it still doesn't work. Now I will go back and clean up the house first. I don't want those harmful things. gone."

Concubine Tong also smiled: "It's still good for you. If you don't worry about getting annoyed, it's better for you to be a small family after all. According to the custom, only 4 palace ladies are left to serve the nobles. It's not like I have a lot of people here. As soon as I give instructions to the people in Wanman Palace, they all know what I said, and they dare not even vent their anger."

"Sister was joking." Ning De blessed, got up and stood up, as if he was about to say goodbye.

Concubine Tong smiled and slapped her head: "Yes, you still have to serve the master at night, look at me, I haven't seen my sister for a few months, I talked to you happily and forgot the time, I dare not keep you, go back and get ready .”
