MTL - Female Official In the East Palace-Chapter 53
The concubine Tong Jiashi's expression changed from surprise to embarrassment, and she smiled reluctantly: "The concubine will live up to the trust of the emperor."
The palace visits the third elder brother and Da Gege and Er Gege."
The prince and the elder brother bowed together and said, "Yes, Huang Ma."
Kangxi got up and left after exhorting this sentence, and when passing by Rong Xin, he said lightly: "Rong female officer also go with the prince."
Rong Xin was slightly startled, while thinking about what Kangxi meant, she respectfully complied.
And because Kangxi came and went like the wind, this questioning in Chengqian Palace also ended in a hurry.
Rong Xin followed the prince and the eldest brother to bid farewell to the noble concubine Tong Jia. Naturally, Tong Jia could no longer keep them, so the three left Chengqian Palace and went to Zhongcui Palace.
Zhong Cui Palace—
The emperor spoke to take Yinzhi back to the palace ahead of time. Rong and concubines were very happy every day. In order to make Yinzhi who had just returned to the palace happy, he promised as soon as he entered the palace: "When the weather is good , let him go to the imperial garden to play."
So on this day, Da Gege and Jin Chan took the third brother and his Elu to the Imperial Garden.
Who would have thought that after going out for more than an hour, the grandmother came back with the third elder brother who was crying and red eyes, and even Da Gege and Jin Chan looked panicked.
The two are also shocked, right? Don't rush back, the imperial doctor will come over later and let him diagnose your pulse."
The third elder brother was tired of crying and fell asleep, but he was still shouting something vague, Yifei saw his face flushed, touched his forehead, and said anxiously: "This is a fever, imperial doctor When are you coming?"
Concubine Rong looked out in a hurry, and finally waited for the imperial doctor, stared at him nervously to examine the third brother, heard him say "nothing is serious", and surrendered Hot soup medicine, and then let go.
She also asked the imperial doctor to also check the pulse of Da Gege and Er Gege. The result was that both of them were a little scared, but it would be good to drink a pair of tranquilizers.
But even so, Concubine Rong was still unable to relieve the anger in her heart, and scolded fiercely: "If you teach me to know who harmed my Yinzhi, I will not tear her up!"
"Who is this kid trying to tear up?"
Concubine Rong raised her head, "Rong female officer?"
The prince and the eldest brother asked the concubine Rong well and then went to see the third brother, while Rong Xin stayed in the main hall and said: "If such a thing happened, the emperor is relieved when he goes to Yikun Palace. No less than three elder brothers, especially the prince and the eldest elder brother come to visit."
When they came in, they met the imperial doctor and went out, so they briefly asked the third brother and their physical condition before coming in.
Concubine Rong pulled the corner of her mouth, not very satisfied, so she started another conversation: "I heard them say that it was you and the elder brother who caught the cat, so it's not hurt. Yi Concubine and Long Si. The other one, I also have to thank you for helping to appease Yinzhi."
"Chengqian Palace..." Rong Concubine threw away the handkerchief in his hand and asked, "What did our noble concubine find?"
Rong Xin said in a flat tone: "The emperor ordered the concubine to find out the truth within three days, and the difference can be seen in three days."
"Three days?" Rong Concubine sneered, "Isn't it less than three days."
Rong Xin was silent and did not answer.
Concubine Rong didn't care whether she answered or not, she said "ha" disdainfully, and said, "Yinzhi is a child, just when she returned to the palace, she was splashed with dirty water, and she also suffered this Like a fright, Hugh taught me who it was, otherwise I would never let it go."
Rong Xin remembered Kangxi's special mention to her in Chengqian Palace, and reassured Concubine Rong: "Little master has served the emperor for many years, so he must have some understanding of the emperor, this matter involves the emperor's heir, the emperor I definitely won't forgive me lightly, and I would like to ask the little master to be calm."
Rong Concubine tightened her hands, her face gradually calmed down, "You are right."
"It's good for the little master to understand."
"Of course I understand the truth, but it's just hard to calm down." Concubine Rong stared at Rong Xin and asked, "What does the female officer think, who should have done this?"
Rong Concubine frowned and said helplessly: "Why are you so boring now?"
"It must be the misunderstanding of the little master, I am a very interesting person."
"..." Rongbi was speechless, "I didn't notice it."
This is Ma Jia's own problem, and has nothing to do with Rong Xinke.
Prince and elder brother to take the third elder brother to Maoqin Hall can only be delayed, but the two still have to attend class, after visiting Yinzhi, they will be sent to them by elder brother and second elder brother come out.
Rong Xin also said goodbye to Concubine Rong when he saw the two coming over.
Ergege Jinchan said in a clear voice: "Emian, I want to send the prince and eldest brother out."
Da Gege Moya glanced at Jin Chan, and said softly: "Rong Concubine Niangniang, since Yinzhi is safe, Moya should go back."
Rong Concubine first nodded at Dagge with a smile, and then waved at her daughter impatiently, "If you want to send it, then follow your sister Moya back, there is no demure of your daughter's home. ."
Jin Chan does not live in Zhongcui Palace with Concubine Rong, but always lives with Da Gege, but the princess is not like a prince, so she can often see her biological mother.
Da Gege has a good relationship with her, so she is also closer to Rong Concubine.
Jin Chan didn't care about her mother's words, she bowed briskly, and went out of the Zhongcui Palace with Rong Xin and the others.
The little girl who originally said she was going to send the prince and the eldest brother, but was not with them, but walked beside Rong Xin, admiring: "Aunt Rong, you are so amazing! Seeing that you are gentle and amiable, the people in the palace respect you so much, and I am a little puzzled. I didn’t expect you to be so good! Have you ever practiced martial arts? Can I learn it?”
"Jin Chan." Da Gege shook her head at her, "Don't be naughty."
Jin Chan pouted, but she was not obedient.
Rong Xin is funny, and I don't know how she associates the "respect" for her in the palace with "good skills", can she still do it herself in the harem?
"I haven't practiced martial arts, I'm just agile." Rong Xin replied earnestly, "There are not a few Manchu noble ladies who are good at riding and archery. If Er Gege likes it, ask the emperor Just ask."
"Is it okay?" Jin Chan hesitated, and Da Gege also looked at her.
Rong Xin nodded, "The emperor is your emperor Ama, why do you doubt it."
"Then I'm going to ask the emperor Ama!" Jin Chan said happily, but she was overjoyed and remembered something and asked, "Then why do some palace servants seem to be afraid of you?"
Rong Xin smiled without saying a word, Jin Chan couldn't get an answer, so she looked at Lu Chen, who seemed to speak better behind her, and kept asking.
Lv Shen is no better than Rong Xin, the little master can't help but answer the question, so he smiles: "The slave only thinks of the word 'Jiwei', I wonder if I can answer Ergege's question."
Er Gege was just interested, not very persistent about the answer, but the prince, looking at his aunt thoughtfully.
The prince and the eldest brother went to Maoqin Hall to study, Rong Xin saw Qi Momo and others, only then did he know that what happened in the imperial garden had spread throughout the palace.
In addition, there are three other things, one is that Yi Concubine is not in danger, although she is frightened by fetal gas, it is not serious, and she will recover after a few days of quiet rest.
The second piece, after Yi Concubine's clothes were changed, was sent to the Xinzhe Library by the diligent maids.
This last one is about Rong Xin.
There were some rumors in the palace, saying that Rong Xin had touched the third brother's cat, and that the cape was tied by her own hands.
Mother Qi naturally believed in Rong Xin, but when she was alone in the room, she couldn't help worrying: "This has only spread for a long time, why did I teach you to encounter this kind of thing? thing..."
"I'm also glad that I met." Rong Xin came back and found that the clothes were torn in two places, and while changing clothes, he replied, "If the prince and elder brother see Yibi If there is an accident in Qianqiu Pavilion, if you are frightened again, it is better for me to encounter it."
Today's scene, when the prince and the elder brother go there, they must see someone right there.
Mother Qi sighed, "What are these things, I thought I could grow up with the prince peacefully in the palace..."
Rong Xin lowered her head and buckled the buckle. Although her tone was casual, she said very clearly: "If the palace is moved, whoever dares to reach out to the prince, I will cut her off."
"..." Qi Momo was startled, and then she couldn't help laughing, "Does His Royal Highness know that you are so fierce inside?"
Rong Xin raised her head expressionlessly, and said with a bit of love: "I must know."
Mother Qi smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
"I look at you as if you were a little gloat?"
Mother Qi joked: "I have a serious face, and I have always been less treated by the prince than you little girls. Don't I have to turn over now?"
"When did the prince not respect you?"
Mother Qi's eyes flashed a hint of relief, and then she returned to the previous topic: "Let the rumors continue like this, it is not good for you, you have to check it privately, if it is really involved You can also handle one or two."
After a cup of tea, he chuckled, "Knowing that it can't hurt me, but someone still incites me like this, obviously to make that person have a grudge against me."
But they don't know that Kangxi's grudge against her has always existed.
Rong Xin said aloud, maybe there is still some stubbornness in her throat, she can live well, Kangxi is really a stalwart and benevolent emperor.
As soon as Mama Qi saw her say this, she said, "Since you know what you have in mind, I won't say anything more."
Shen Shizhong was about to touch the prince to come back, so Rong Xin came to the main room of the prince's side hall.
After waiting for a while, she saw the prince walking in with gentle eyes, and Rong Xin asked curiously, "Is this a happy event? Why don't you look sullen?"
Baocheng shook his head and replied seriously: "There is no happy event, just an epiphany today, majesty is not the same as a cold face."
Rong Xin laughed, "Then you've changed a bit faster."
Baocheng smiled shyly and said, "My aunt taught me to observe by myself, and Baocheng found that everyone around me can be a teacher and I can gain something, but it will take some time to digest it."
Rong Xin heard this and said with a smile: "But like you did before, it is indeed more deterrent to the prince. You can make a little correction, and you don't have to overcorrect."
Baocheng nodded, "I see."
Rong Xin smiled and asked him what he wanted for supper.
"Anything." Baocheng watched her finish the instructions to the maid, and then asked, "Auntie, Baocheng has some questions about today's affairs, can you answer me?"
"Of course." Rong Xin responded, waved the palace people to go outside, and then said, "What do you want to ask?"
"Auntie can guess who did it?"
Rong Xin did not answer immediately, but instead asked: "His Royal Highness Shansi, what do you think?"
"It should not be a concubine of honor or concubine of Yi, and the raft is made by Yinzhi or the unborn prince's child, the gain outweighs the loss..."
Rong Xin nodded encouragingly, always listening with a smile.
Baocheng became a lot more confident, and continued: "Concubine Hui has always been at odds with Concubine Rong; Yinzhi and Yinzhen are of the same age, and Concubine Tong Jia and Concubine Wu Yashu may not like Yinzhi. Huang Ama loves her; and looking at Huang Ama's attitude towards Concubine Tong Jia today, maybe some people want to target Concubine Tong Jia..."
He said all the results of his thinking, and then said: "I only think of this."
Rong Xin smiled and praised: "It's good that you can think of this for yourself."
Because of her affirmation, Bao Cheng opened a smile on the corner of his mouth and urged: "Can Auntie help me?"
"First of all, everything must be judged on the basis of factual evidence. What you and I said today are just guesswork. I hope Your Highness will understand."
Baocheng agrees, "I will not make judgments in the future."
Rong Xin touched his head, and the light felt strangely good, so he touched it twice more, then before he noticed it, he coughed and retracted his hand.
"Your Highness, the harem is not simply the emperor's harem, so when you look at the actions of concubines and concubines in the harem, you can't simply take the struggle for favor and the position as the starting point."
Having never entered the palace before, Rong Xin also thought that palace fighting was just jealousy, but after being with Nemin over the years, she found that this kind of thinking was rather narrow.
Those who are useless and useless only focus on the emperor's favor. Most concubines have a family, and they stay in the emperor's harem on behalf of the family.
The family's training and expectations for them greatly affects their positioning and pursuit of themselves in the harem.
"The 19th General Election is approaching."
Rong Xin said to the prince with an attitude of equal communication, "Let's ignore today's matter, just jump out of the harem, and look at the harem's concubines and concubines from a more timely perspective. Relationship."
Baocheng nodded and looked at her with some doubts, "What does it have to do with the election?"
"I remember you said something while chatting with me a few days ago, about the Hesheli family and the Niu Hulu family, do you remember?"
Baocheng recalled for a moment, and said, "Did Huang Amar say that he wants to refer to a marriage for the Hesheli family and the Niu Hulu family?"
Rong Xin nodded, "Actually, it doesn't matter if it means marriage, after all, there are marriages among the eight banners. Noble Hesheli is better."
"So in the palace, the Hesheli clan and the Niuhulu clan are closely related?" Baocheng continued along this line of thought, "Then Tongjia noble concubine and Wuya nobleman, because of Yinzhen, Will you get any closer?"
"It's not absolute."
What Rong Xin didn't say was that concubine Tong Jia took advantage of the power of the Wuya family to manage palace affairs more smoothly, but this relationship was not stable.
"The three concubines, Rong, Hui, and Yi, have favorites and sons, and they have strong personalities.
"Only An Concubine Li, Jing Concubine Wang Jia, and Duan Concubine Dong, because they have no children and lack of confidence, gradually came together."
"Li came from the Han army banner, and has a good family background. When he was canonized in the 16th year, he ranked first among the seven concubines, and he also dominated the three." Rong Xin paused, seeking truth from facts. Said, "However, when Empress Renxiao was alive, the Li family had no sense of existence, and only appeared in the palace after thirteen years."
Baocheng was a little stunned, "Then...according to what my aunt said, or An Concubine is the most likely?"
Rong Xin suddenly raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "This is just speculation, and evidence is still needed, and it is not ruled out that there are people who have a brain and don't care about doing things randomly, after all, such people can't think according to Common sense to speculate."
Baocheng stuffed too many things at once, some of them couldn't react, and only knew how to nod along with her words.
Rong Xin thought about the series of events after the incident, even though he seemed to have some indigestion, he said again—
"There is no owner in the middle palace, everyone can get a piece of the pie, and no one is innocent."
