"Wuya Clan"? When Li Dequan mentioned the elegant and demure woman, Kang Xi thought of the decorations in her palace. She was a palace maid and did not have any dowry. How could she make the atmosphere in Yonghe Palace not lose its exquisiteness? The inconspicuous objects placed in the palace should be the credit of her grandfather, who was the head of the Internal Affairs Office.
How could there not be any decorations in the palaces that were made in Vietnam? It was just that Kangxi's favor to Consort De these days made him very clear about the decorations in Yonghe Palace. Today, after listening to Li Dequan's words, the accusation of private dealings in the palace was directly pinned on Consort De's head. One was Kangxi's favorite concubine in the palace, and the other was the head of the Internal Affairs Office who took care of the compradors in the palace. If the two were not very loyal, Kangxi would not be able to sit and sleep in peace.
The current Kangxi had already experienced the world and had the common problem of being suspicious of the emperor. Now that there were illegal objects in Consort De's palace, there was no guarantee that there would be some forbidden objects in the future. Thinking of this possibility, Wu Ya Xianqing's position as the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs must be removed. In order to avoid the danger that had already appeared, he had to thoroughly investigate the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Kang Xi would not allow anyone or anything that could harm him or the Qing Dynasty to exist for another second. He raised his head and said sternly to Li Dequan, who was kneeling below and waiting for orders,"Now, go and investigate the internal affairs department thoroughly while they are unprepared. Report everything, big or small."
Investigating when everyone was unprepared would probably bring up more problems, but this was not what Li Dequan needed to care about. He just had to follow the orders. He had wanted the Emperor to notice the Imperial Noble Consort's abnormality, but he did not expect Consort De to suffer such a big loss. It seemed that there was no innocent person in the palace. It was the usual brainless Imperial Noble Consort who did things casually. Even Li Dequan did not dare to neglect her anymore.
Seeing that the person had left the palace door and disappeared into the dark night, Kang Xi looked down at the memorial in his hand, asking for permission to raise the flag. Seeing the word Zhun written in cinnabar on it, he could not help but secretly suspect the woman in the palace who always had an indifferent expression. He counted the many women in the back palace and saw their shy and expectant eyes every day. How many of them were really looking forward to him?
She thought of the dark and empty palace, the cold moonlight shining on the person who had tears in the corner of her eyes even when she was sleeping. She listened carefully to the painful cry that made her suppress her pain." Cousin, I don't want children anymore. Xianying only wants you." Kang Xi thought that there were people who treated him sincerely in the harem. It was just that he didn't take them to heart at that time.
Looking down at the table full of memorials, Kang Xi lost interest in reading them for the first time. He turned to the palace servant beside him and asked,"" Who's serving you today?"
"Reporting to the Emperor, today's 20 should be serving Concubine Rong." Although she was a little surprised that the Emperor would put down the memorial at this time, Little Blessing's face did not reveal the slightest report.
Today's matter made Kang Xi lose interest in recruiting people to serve him. He waved his hand and ordered someone to go to Lady Rong to tell her not to wait. He got up and walked out of the study room, walking around the palace aimlessly.
She didn't know that just sending the two palace maids back to the Internal Affairs Office had caused so many things. At this time, Xianying was busy taking care of the two little guys. The eighth princess had already drunk the warm spring water that had been diluted for some time. Perhaps the effect of the diluted water was not enough, so although her body did improve, if it wasn't for Xianying's careful observation, she wouldn't have noticed it.
Little Yinzhen, who was staying in the back hall for the first time tonight, was a little more reserved than the eight concubines who had already eaten and slept soundly. However, he was indeed tired today. Although his small body was sitting upright on the chair, his small head was already kowtowing like a bug.
Xianying still couldn't accept having the palace maids serve her. Fortunately, because Tong Jia Shi didn't like the approaching Emperor, no one was allowed to enter the inner palace except for Nanny Cui. Although it was still a bit awkward to clean up this unfamiliar body, it was better than a bunch of women touching her.
Waving her hand, Xianying asked Nanny Cui to help tidy up the little sleepyhead and put it on the bed. She looked down at the two children who looked quite similar on the bed. Xianying did not deliberately avoid the children who might not be asleep. She asked Nanny Cui softly, Granny, tell me what happened today in detail."
Hearing her master's words, Nanny Cui remembered that she had not told her about the two palace maids she had taken in. She quickly knelt down and apologized,"Mistress, today when Eunuch Liu brought people back to Fourth Brother, he also brought two palace maids. This servant thought that the people served by Fourth Brother had been sent to the Internal Affairs Office and was afraid that the remaining people would be bad, so she took the initiative to take the people bestowed by the emperor and is now waiting in Fourth Brother's side hall."
If it weren't for Nanny Cui, Xianying would have forgotten about sending the nanny and the talkative palace maids back to the Internal Affairs Office. Although she felt that the two people sent them were a little strange, it was fine as long as they were obedient enough.
He didn't ask further about this matter. He waved his hand to get Granny Cui to stand up and said,""Keep them and use them, but you have to investigate them carefully before letting them come. BenGong will give them the names Ming Shuang and Zhao Ke so that they can forget their previous identities and work well in Jing Ren Palace. There will be a change of people in the palace soon, so if you have any good ones, tell BenGong to stay."
"This servant understands. Today, the Fourth Prince heard that the old woman and the servant girl said that the master was not his biological mother. They also laughed and said that you would not want him if you had the Eighth Princess. That's why the Fourth Prince went to the Emperor and wanted to ask for the imperial edict to see the master. I think he wanted to ask if it was true." Not only did the Fourth Prince have such concerns, but even Nanny Cui also had such thoughts. After all, with the current methods of the master, the Fourth Prince would occupy the identity of the master's eldest son if he stayed. How unfair would this be to the future Little Master?
Xianying, who did not know what Nanny Cui was thinking, hesitated to tell Yinzhen the truth after hearing her words. She was not afraid that Yinzhen would be alienated from her, but she was worried that it would leave an indelible scar in his heart.
She gently stroked the soft hair of Little Yinzhen, who was sleeping peacefully on the bed, and said in a low voice that made one unable to hear her emotions,"Granny, this kind of words will be heard even more by the fourth brother after he leaves Jing Ren Palace. I don't want him to hear the truth from others again. Not only will he have to accept this truth, but he will also be hurt by my lies."
Although Nanny Cui wanted her master to tell the Fourth Prince the truth, if she could go and beg him personally, she could probably put her master in an injured role and make the Emperor feel guilty towards her master and pay more attention to her. However, the Fourth Prince had been in Jing Ren Palace for three years and had personally seen him grow from a small child to his current appearance. Nanny Cui could not bear it and could not help but persuade him,"Master, Fourth Brother is still so young, so he probably wouldn't understand that in this palace, a child with a low status can't be raised by himself. It's already his fortune to be brought to Jing Ren Palace by you, so this servant thinks it's better to wait for Fourth Brother to enter school before telling him."
