The atmosphere in the Qianqing Palace was heavy.
The source of the heaviness comes from the emperor sitting behind the imperial case. After five days of investigation, the case of the incense burner in the Chengqian Palace has also generally emerged.
What made Kangxi unbelievable was that the contents and results of the investigation written in the three papers submitted by different people were quite different! ?He looked directly at the three papers in front of him, with anger on the verge of bursting in his brows and eyes.
The first group to investigate was the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Digging down along the palace maid Zhuru who betrayed the master, they found an old nanny all the way. Unfortunately, this nanny died suddenly at home, and only got a few words from the neighbors. I heard that there was a family with a Manchurian surname before. The steward came to look for her.
As for this Manchurian family...
Even though the Ministry of Internal Affairs is secretive and dare not write more, the finger is still pointed at Empress Xiaozhao, Faka, the younger brother of Noble Concubine Niu Hulu.
Do you mean the concubine?
It sounds reasonable. After all, Concubine Niu Hulu is only under the Tong Jia family. As long as the imperial concubine dies, the entire harem will become her harem.
But will Niu Hulu really know it?
Concubine Niu Hulu was born in a famous family, with an arrogant and self-confident personality, there is only one concubine Yi in the palace who can talk to her a few words.Such a person who regards his birth as the greatest glory will attack the imperial concubine?Kangxi shook his head.
He stretched out his hand to look carefully at the next booklet.
The second group went to investigate Tong Guowei, the father of Concubine Tong. Like the Ministry of Internal Affairs, they also found this nanny and found out that it was related to a certain big Manchurian family.
It's just different from Niu Gulu's family that the Ministry of Internal Affairs refers to. Tong Jia's investigation found that Empress Renxiao's uncle, the steward of the first-class foreman of the guard, Ke Erkun's family, frequently came and went in and out of this place.
Of course, Tong Guowei is not stupid. Isn't doubting the Hesheli family the same as doubting the prince?Tong Guowei, who knew the prince's position in the emperor's heart, was cautious, directly pointing out his doubts and asking the emperor to investigate thoroughly.
The third group was investigated by Kangxi's cronies.
The front is similar, but the latter is completely different from the former two.
According to what the guards said, this nanny has come and gone a lot, except for the Hesheli family and the Niuhulu family who have been in recent times, there are even the Nala family and the Guerjia family in the distance, and even the Tong Jia family has side branches that are quite close to her. ambiguous.
The reason was a pregnancy formula in the hands of this nanny.
The guard Luo made a list of clients, which included most of the natal families where the concubines of the harem lived, and even the backyards of the remaining royal families also had her clients.
Relationships alone can form a huge web.
Kangxi looked at the list carefully, and the messy clans and names were connected in a mess. No wonder the guards in charge of the investigation said frankly that only this nun who died suddenly knew who she was secretly colluding with.
Kangxi pressed his eyebrows.
Even he began to have some doubts, this nanny died suddenly at this moment, was it because the murderer behind the scenes was trying to divert attention?You must know that Faka's wife is also from the Hesheli family, and it is possible that she will come forward.
The Hesheli family, the Niu Hulu family and the Tong Jia family.
Good guy!In one breath, all the three major clans were included.
Kangxi frowned tightly.
The law does not blame the public, and Kangxi cannot act recklessly without evidence.Just looking at the densely populated clans with familiar or unfamiliar names, and thinking about the hidden black hand behind the scenes, Kangxi's anger became more and more serious, and everyone who was listed on the list was heavily marked by him. .
and many more……?
Kangxi squinted his eyes, he was keenly aware of the subtle and strange feeling in the two lists.Kangxi examined it carefully for a while, and then lightly tapped the name of Concubine De with his fingertips.
Wu Yashi also had contact with this nanny.
As for the release of spies to Chengqian Palace, Concubine Hui, Concubine Yi, Concubine Rong and even Concubine Hesheli from Chuxiu Palace were all on the list, but Concubine De... no?
The fourth elder brother came out of Wu Ya's stomach.
She was so relieved to be raised in Chengqian Palace?Not even a single person?Don't say that other people can squeeze in, but Concubine De gets out of the mud without being stained, and even one person can't be squeezed in!
What's more, Kangxi also knew some rumors in the palace when Concubine Tong Huanggui was pregnant-well, it was the real story about the life experience of the fourth prince.It said he didn't believe that there were no Concubine De's hands and feet. Rumors and rumors could spread, so this Saiman wouldn't be able to take care of his son?
There are two possibilities.
One is that Concubine De is the murderer behind the scenes.
The second is that Concubine De has no mother-child affection for the fourth elder brother.
Leaving aside the former, why spread rumors if there is no latter?If so, go back to the first question.
The more Kangxi thought about it, the more something went wrong.
His eyes darkened slightly, and he ordered to reprimand the imperial concubine who was caught as a spy, and made people stare at Concubine De again.
Chaos in the harem.
Kangxi is like a lion waking up. His sudden fangs made the concubines tremble with fear. The violent wind and rain swept through the palaces. Concubine Hui, Concubine Yi, Concubine Rong and Concubine Hesheli who were caught by their tails were punished and confinement. Not to mention, the people from the East and West Sixth Palaces were strictly censored, and dozens of people were directly taken away and sent to prison.
For example, Concubine Yi was shocked and frightened.
What surprised me was that the nails I hid by myself were pulled out completely, and what I was afraid of was... one of the midwives I ordered was someone else's nails.She was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat, her stomach throbbed faintly, and her heart was full of fear: "It's because I'm confused, I'm confused..."
While Guo Guiren called for the imperial doctor, he also put his arms around her to comfort her: "My sister is also protecting herself, she must... definitely be forgiven by the emperor."
There are more surprises than panic.
The turmoil in the entire harem can be described in more than one sentence.
Kangxi let out a bad breath.
He turned his gaze, and his mind returned to the memorial waiting for review.After reviewing the papers for more than half an hour, he stretched himself, raised his eyes and looked at the western clock: "Where is the prince? Why haven't you come to the Qing Palace yet?"
Although the prince has moved to live in Yuqing Palace, he still eats a lot of dinner with Kangxi every day, and he takes an assessment along with the meal to promote the relationship between father and son - at least Kangxi thinks so.
It's kind of strange that this point didn't come.
Kangxi thought for a moment: "Could it be that you are still giving lectures to Yinzhen?"
The crown prince is only ten years old, but he has to drag Yinzhen to give him lectures, Kangxi finds it funny when he thinks about it.Instructing the palace people to go and have a look quickly, Kangxi mentioned Langhao and started working again.
After he finished reviewing the last notebook, the little eunuch also came back.He had a strange expression on his face: "Reporting to the emperor, His Royal Highness brought the eldest brother, the third elder brother, the fourth elder brother and the seventh elder brother back to Yuqing Palace. The servant heard that the eunuch Liu, the steward of Yuqing Palace, said that His Royal Highness is studying!"
Kangxi nodded with a smile: "The prince is serious about studying, just like I used to be."
Liang Jiugong served the emperor for many years.
At this moment, he couldn't help recalling the emperor's hard work and forgetting to eat and sleep when he was studying.Liang Jiugong let out a sigh, and he bent his back slightly with emotion all over his face: "His Royal Highness, brothers and sisters, is a grand event for the country and a happy event for the people."
It is always right to praise the prince.
Kangxi showed a look of relief, and inevitably he had to brag about the prince for a long time.
Compared with the love for Yinzuo, Kangxi's love for the prince who will inherit the great cause in the future is stricter at the same time.Fortunately, the prince has not failed his expectations. When Kangxi talked about the prince, his expression gradually softened: "The prince has reassured me since he was a child, and he is dedicated to learning and working hard. Everyone who is familiar with him says that he is very talented, but now he has learned Take my brother..."
Kangxi's voice became softer and softer.
At the same time, his expression became more and more weird. Kangxi recalled what the little eunuch said just now, and always felt that there were some strange characters mixed in.
Kangxi looked up at the little eunuch.
With a serious face, he asked again: "Say it again, who is the crown prince taking to study?"
The little eunuch repeated again: "Reporting to the emperor, His Royal Highness brought the eldest brother, third elder brother, fourth elder brother and seventh elder brother back to Yuqing Palace to study."
Is this really what I heard wrong?
Kangxi's eyes widened slightly, and there was a look of astonishment between his brows and eyes: "Yinti also went to Yuqing Palace?"
The prince and Yinti have always been at odds.
Kangxi naturally knew about this, but wouldn't it be better to have an opponent along the way than to go smoothly?What's more, considering the balance of the previous dynasty, Kangxi turned a blind eye to the competition between the two.
Boys, it's normal to fight and fight.
But does the sun rise from the west today?The two boys with cross-eyed eyes actually got together to study together?
Especially Yinti!
Why would he run to Yuqing Palace, or go to study?This kid's not skipping class can be regarded as endurance.
Kangxi was puzzled.
Apart from this question, there is another question: How could this boy Yinyou get mixed up in it?He's not old enough to go to school, is he?
The more he thought about it, the more confused Kangxi simply stood up: "Go, let's go to Yuqing Palace to have a look."
The Yuqing Palace was quiet.
When Kangxi walked to the door and paused, his heart became more and more curious.Stopping the palace servants who wanted to say hello, Kangxi tiptoed inside and stood behind the window to look inside.
The expected quarrel scene did not appear, but the atmosphere inside was really confusing.
Kangxi looked carefully for a moment but didn't see clearly what the sons were doing together, so he simply pushed the door in - well, the sons still didn't notice him after all their attention.
What the hell is this doing?
Kangxi stood behind and looked in curiously, and saw that Yinreng, Yinti, Yinzhi, and Yinzhen were all concentrating on the textbooks, asking one or two questions from time to time to discuss with each other, and the learning atmosphere was strong. How serious are you...
Ok?
Kangxi blinked, and nodded again seriously.
Yinreng, Yinti, Yinzhi and Yinzhen.
He frowned slightly, turned his head and asked in a low voice: "Didn't you say that Yinyou is here too? Where are his people?"
Gao Hu, the chief steward of Yuqing Palace, took a step forward.
He smiled awkwardly: "Your Majesty, Brother Seven is not in the study, but is now in the backyard."
Gao Hu is the general manager of Yuqing Palace.
He was always calm and calm, with an indifferent expression, and it was Kangxi's first time seeing such a tangled and weird reaction.
Kangxi was slightly taken aback.
Aroused by curiosity, he walked to the backyard to see what this kid Yinyou was doing.
The source of the heaviness comes from the emperor sitting behind the imperial case. After five days of investigation, the case of the incense burner in the Chengqian Palace has also generally emerged.
What made Kangxi unbelievable was that the contents and results of the investigation written in the three papers submitted by different people were quite different! ?He looked directly at the three papers in front of him, with anger on the verge of bursting in his brows and eyes.
