Chapter 73 Targeting
Concubine Kangde smiled: "I don't understand these things. The third prince is still young. It was not until a few days ago that he recovered from his stomachache. I dare not move, so I won't go this year. These things, the queen, you decide. What do you think, sister Feng?"
Concubine Feng was furious. This was Concubine Kangde cutting off her source of trouble.
She has already said she won't go, so why should I go? Doesn't this mean she is ignorant?
But she herself doesn't think she is old, so why should she give way to the young? Concubine Kangde is content with having a son, but she is not.
"Qingliang Mountain has beautiful scenery. I would like to go there, but I still have to visit the Empress." Concubine Feng was so angry that she didn't know what to say.
"If that's the case, then you guys go back first. I'll think about it." The queen waved her hand.
She mainly wanted to ask the two concubines who had princes, the others were not important.
After leaving Fengzao Palace, Concubine Feng Shu turned her spearhead towards Concubine Kangde: "Sister, you really have a kind heart. Are you not going to Qingliang Mountain because of the Third Prince? I wonder if the Third Prince will be grateful to you as his biological mother."
This is a satire on Concubine Kangde, as the third prince was not her own son.
Concubine Kangde smiled and said, "We can talk about whether I am grateful or not later. I must be a good mother first."
"I hope that I can be a good mother this time. Otherwise, there will be no prince for you to learn how to be a mother." After saying this, Concubine Feng Shu held the hand of the palace maid and left.
Concubine Kangde's face turned pale.
She held the hand of her maid and walked away slowly. She didn't want to say anything, and she couldn't say anything.
"Master, don't be sad. The Third Prince is fine, she is just too cruel." Zhima's eyes were red.
"Yes, master, she is vicious and hopes that bad things will happen to you. Now that you are the Defei, she naturally dislikes you in every way. Don't be angry, because your anger will make her happy." Dou Su said.
Concubine Kang De shook her head: "How could I be because of her? I just..."
She was thinking of her own biological son, who was so handsome and well-behaved, whom she raised to be over a year old and then died just like that.
She values the third prince now very much, but that is because she has lost her own child.
She will never forget the pain of losing her son.
"Master." After returning to Leshou Palace and settling down, Zhima came to talk to Concubine Kangde.
"Just remember the past. You can't let her get upset now. Our third prince is fine. Although he was born prematurely, he is in good health. You just need to teach him well. Even if he knows Miao Xiaoyi when he grows up... but Miao Xiaoyi has a poor family background, he won't be stupid."
"Although the Second Prince is favored by the Emperor, his temperament is indeed ordinary. He is not particularly stunning. It is unknown what he will be like in the future. Feng is now very powerful and prominent, but who knows what he will be like in the future? She even wants to suppress the Empress, so she may suffer the consequences."
"I know everything." Concubine Kang De nodded: "When I see her, I only feel hatred. How could my poor child die in vain? One day, one day, I will avenge my son."
"Master, the more you think like this, the more you should take care of yourself. You still have the Third Prince and the Liu family. If you take good care of yourself, the Third Prince will have hope. If the Third Prince is well, the Liu family will be well." Zhima also knew that he could no longer expect to be favored by his master.
The Third Prince is everything.
Nowadays, it is not uncommon for the Emperor to come once every one or two months.
And my master was injured because of the death of the eldest prince, so she can't get pregnant.
These few words from Concubine Feng Shufei and Concubine Kang De did not cause any further disturbance.
The concubines who entered the palace later didn't know whether they were on good terms with each other.
Those in the group including Shen Chuliu only knew that Concubine Liu, who was not around at the time, had been sick all the time.
I won't talk about what I vaguely know.
After all, it involved the death of a prince.
Who dares to speak nonsense?
What's more, those who are of lower status cannot reach these things.
The Queen knew it in her heart, and she would not bring it up. The Emperor also knew some things in his heart, so there was no need to bring them up.
She helped Liu to the position of Concubine De. If Liu herself did not know how to seize the opportunity, she would have deserved to suffer for the rest of her life.
The Queen certainly had no good intentions, she was just too lazy to fight with Feng.
There are ready-made candidates, why do you have to do it yourself?
However, she wanted to see what Concubine Kangde chose. If Concubine Kangde wanted to go to Qingliang Mountain, she would go too. If Concubine Kangde didn't want to go, she wouldn't go either.
She will protect the third prince within this year.
Similarly, she didn't feel sorry for the child, at least not simply because she felt sorry for the child.
But there can't always be only one Concubine Feng with a prince in the palace.
In Changle Palace, Concubine Yi bit her lip and said, "Is this medicine really effective?"
"Master, don't worry. This medicine was bought at a high price. It is said to guarantee a woman's pregnancy. But it cannot guarantee the gender of the baby." Anxiang said.
Concubine Yi nodded: "I don't ask for a boy or girl, even if it's just a princess, that would be fine."
"But this medicine requires you...you and the emperor to be together for at least ten days." Huashan also hesitated.
It was hard to say, how could the emperor cooperate? They couldn't say it clearly.
"It doesn't matter. Since I am the favorite concubine, I should also think of a solution." Concubine Yi took a deep breath and said, "Go and change my clothes now. I will go find the emperor."
In the afternoon, the Queen conveyed the message that the Emperor would only bring Concubine Yi with him on this trip to Qingliang Mountain.
The harem was in an uproar.
Concubine Feng was so angry that she smashed several pieces of porcelain.
People in the palace couldn't help but talk about Concubine Yi's greatness.
After all, she is the most favored concubine. At this time, neither Jing Meiren, Li Meiren nor Ning Jieyu are good enough.
When paying respects the next day, Concubine Feng could no longer hide her anger.
For a moment, he no longer cared about the alliance that was in name only.
Concubine Yi still held a grudge against her because of what happened last time, and now she was too lazy to pretend, so their relationship broke down directly.
Concubine Jin added fuel to the fire, and the situation was very unsightly for a while.
The queen gently put down the tea bowl and said, "Concubine Yi, you must serve the emperor well when you go out. You have served the emperor for many years, and I am relieved. If there is anything missing, please come to Fengzao Palace and tell me. If there is nothing else, you can go with me to the Empress Dowager and the ladies."
Everyone stood up.
This was the first time that Shen Chuliu went to pay respects and it was not during the New Year or something like that.
Outside Cirui Palace, Nanny Zhuang had been waiting there since early morning.
The Queen and others were welcomed in politely.
Empress Dowager Feng did not make trouble and just came out holding the palace maid's hand.
"Is the queen recovering well? She seems to be a little plumper. That's a good thing."
"Thank you, mother. I am fine." The queen smiled.
After sitting down, Empress Dowager Feng asked questions about the Empress and the Second Princess, and occasionally asked about the Third Prince, and also asked about Yi Chongyuan who was not present.
He quickly asked everyone to stand up and said, "I won't keep you any longer. Ci'an Palace is waiting for you. You can go and sit there."
The queen didn't say anything nonsense, she just stood up and left.
