Chapter 186 Reprimanding Concubine Hui

A warm family happiness ended so anticlimactically.

The Queen Mother eventually learned about the conversation between the Queen and Concubine Hui, and was very unhappy with their behavior of using children as a pretext. These children are all good children, and they will always become good as long as they are taught carefully. But these two people's words were too harsh.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager's attention was diverted, the Grand Empress Dowager couldn't help but lecture her, "Shouldn't your focus now be on that palace maid? She is from Shoukang Palace, but she dared not speak in order to avoid being involved in gossip."

The Queen Mother laughed and said, "She has reason to do so."

"It's understandable. Her purpose is to serve as your translator. If she has her own selfish motives, the translation result will no longer be reliable. At the very least, this is a deception. At the worst, what if something happened at that time?"

"What?" The Empress Dowager did not understand what the Grand Empress Dowager meant.

"The Queen and Concubine Hui had more than one fight. What would you do if it escalated from verbal to physical conflict? All the children in the palace were present at the time. No matter which one was hurt, you would be blamed."

"It should be, it shouldn't be that serious."

"If they were really sensible, they wouldn't have caused such a scene in Shoukang Palace. Who knows what they would do after they got angry.

If Ma Jia hadn't fought back then, even if nothing happened to them, as the master of Shoukang Palace, would you have looked good? If any of them got hurt, would the emperor blame you? "

"The Queen's Mother."

Seeing the Empress Dowager at a loss, the Grand Empress Dowager felt distressed. This niece was not a person of this kind. It was all her son's fault. If the Empress Dowager had not smoothed out all her edges, she would have followed in Concubine Jing's footsteps.

"Forget it. This matter has nothing to do with you. It was that palace maid who implicated you. I will make the decision for you this time. I will punish that servant and replace him with a better one."

Although the servant was punished, the Empress Dowager was still unhappy. Uyunna was the Empress Dowager, but the Queen and Concubine Hui did not take her seriously at all.

If it was someone else, the Empress Dowager would not believe that these two people would dare to be so presumptuous. Aren't they just bullying Wu Yunna? They dared to do this when I was protecting them. What if I was no longer around?

It seems that what I have planned for Wuyunna should be put on the agenda. It's just a pity that the emperor seems to be afraid of Korchin and is only willing to give them a princess, who is born to the prince's concubine.

The Empress Dowager still wanted a prince, because the princesses would marry outside the palace when they grew up, and only a prince could be relied upon. However, the only suitable princes in the palace were the children of Ma Jia and Nara.

Chengrui's body was already ruined, and it was not known whether he could be raised, so it was not suitable. Chengqing's temper was spoiled by his mother, and the Empress Dowager was very unhappy. She wanted to find a backer for Wuyunna, not to cause trouble.

It is said that a child's character can be seen at the age of three. This child is already grown up. It is unknown how much effort it will take to correct him. Moreover, Wu Yunna is a soft-hearted person. He must not be cruel enough to discipline her. He is not suitable either.

Then the only thing left was the baby in their belly, but we didn't know whether it was a boy or a girl. The Empress Dowager could of course ask the imperial physician first, but taking the pulse to find out the gender was not foolproof.

If something went wrong in the end, and it was a princess instead of a prince, could she regret having sacrificed her reputation to ask the emperor for a child? Wouldn't that mean she disdained the emperor's child?

Besides, there was only one chance, and the emperor would not give in again and again. Unfortunately, if she waited until the child was born, it would be too late. She had to think carefully about what to do.

However, before the Empress Dowager could come up with a solution, Kangxi learned from Liang Jiugong about Chengqing and Nara's behavior in Shoukang Palace, so he went to Shoukang Palace in person to apologize to the Empress Dowager.

Because the Empress Dowager had always been unknown and had never touched Kangxi's bottom line, Kangxi had a good impression of this stepmother. Even after learning the cause of his biological mother's death, he could not hate her.

Because Kangxi knew that the Empress Dowager was not involved in this, and her life was ruined by her father and the Qing Dynasty. But after all, the other party was the beneficiary, so Kangxi could not face the Empress Dowager calmly and had complicated feelings towards her.

Fortunately, the Empress Dowager had always been very low-key, and Kangxi basically met the Empress Dowager in the Cining Palace. In such occasions, he mostly talked with the Grand Empress Dowager.

But this time, since his concubines and children had lost the face of the empress dowager, Kangxi could no longer hide, and finally he had to bite the bullet and go to the door to apologize. Because he was in the wrong, he was very humble.

Unexpectedly, when the Empress Dowager saw Kangxi coming, she was surprised and happy. The old lady had few people she could talk to in the palace. Apart from the Grand Empress Dowager, there were only Kangxi who was fluent in Manchu, Mongolian and Chinese, and some servants.

But Kangxi was very busy, and she couldn't understand the important things, and Kangxi wouldn't talk to her. Could it be that Kangxi would chat with her about some trivial matters? It was unrealistic to think about it.

Moreover, although they were mother and son, they actually had no feelings for each other. When the Empress Dowager was still the Empress, Shunzhi was determined to depose her again, so she lived on thin ice. She was too busy hiding under the wings of the Grand Empress Dowager, so how could she have any contact with the prince?

Kangxi had not expected that the Empress Dowager did not mind the disrespect from the Yanx Palace at all, nor did she give him a bad face. Instead, she happily treated him to food and drinks.

After all, Concubine Hui's temper was purely her own doing. If she hadn't relied on her own power, Nara wouldn't have dared to do so.

However, the more the old lady acted like this, the more Kangxi felt guilty. Originally, Nara's favorite concubine was fake. Even if it was real, Kangxi would not tolerate such arrogant behavior.

In the end, even though the Empress Dowager did not say anything, after leaving Shoukang Palace, Kangxi still issued an edict to reprimand Concubine Hui and ordered her to discipline her children properly. This time, not only did Concubine Hui lose face, but Chengqing also gradually gained a bad reputation.

After all, once a spoiled brat is released, his destructive power is huge, but he has a good mother and they are afraid that the Emperor will support them, so they can only endure it.

As a result, when the Emperor's decree came out, everyone understood that the Emperor was unhappy. No matter whether it was because of the involvement of the Empress Dowager, their chance for revenge had come.

At the beginning, Concubine Hui was very angry and shouted that the Emperor did not love Chengqing anymore. It was not until the rumors of Chengqing's domineering behavior gradually spread that Concubine Hui realized that the Emperor was really unhappy. She had no choice but to calm down and reluctantly discipline Chengqing.
