Shunzhi looked at him with a vicious look, then had someone feed him poison and then dismissed everyone because he wanted to talk to Dorgon.
"Fourteenth Uncle must be wondering why I suddenly killed you, right?"
"How dare you fool me? My subordinates will not let you go. Just wait to be pulled down from the throne!"
Dorgon was extremely angry that Shunzhi had actually poisoned him. He was now suffering from unbearable abdominal pain, but he did not want to show weakness.
"No, they were instigated by me a long time ago. Otherwise, why hasn't anyone come to rescue you in over a month? Uncle Fourteen looks like he's dying. How about this? I'll let you die knowingly.
The Empress Dowager found out she was pregnant at Mount Wutai. According to the date, it's yours. How can I be willing to give birth to such an illegitimate child?
Now that he knows the reason for his death, can Uncle Fourteen finally rest in peace?"
Dorgon never expected that Xiaozhuang would be pregnant with his child. It was a pity that he had no chance to see it. He only hoped that she could give birth to their child and raise him.
"It seems that Fourteenth Uncle didn't understand what I meant and is still dreaming unrealistically.
Something happened to the Empress Dowager, and she will soon be sent to the Eastern Qing Tombs for burial. Don't worry, your graves are very close. From now on, you can be husband and wife down there. I won't interfere anyway."
"You...you actually killed your mother!"
Dorgon wanted to rush over, but he had no strength left and could only stare at Shunzhi fiercely until he died.
call!
Now that Dorgon was gone, the huge stone that was pressing on him was finally removed. From now on, he could feel more relaxed.
As for Xiaozhuang, she was no longer his mother when she was with Dorgon. He was sad, but not much.
"Prince Regent Dorgon contracted a serious illness in the Heavenly Prison and died. In recognition of his contributions to the Qing Dynasty, he was specially allowed to be buried in the Shengjing Mausoleum."
"yes."
In Kunning Palace, the queen looked at the distance with some fear. She seemed to have seen Empress Xiaozhuang just now, and Empress Xiaozhuang asked her to harm Mu Sili.
If she had dared before, she would have done so, but now, she doesn't dare.
Xiaozhuang was 100% certain that it was Shunzhi who ordered her death. Otherwise, who would let the empress dowager die in a foreign land?
'Queen, you are a Borjigit woman, the queen chosen by me personally. You must hold fast to your throne.
The virtuous concubine is an outlier. Only with her can you sit firmly on the throne of queen.
I will be watching you from the Eternal Heaven. If you don't get rid of her, I will come and haunt you every day until the virtuous concubine is removed.'
"No, no, Empress Dowager, don't do that. I dare not. Please let me go. You are also a Khorchin person. How can you treat me like this?"
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? What nonsense are you talking about? Since the passing of the Empress Dowager, your condition has been getting worse and worse. You were even talking nonsense just now.
I'll ask a doctor to come and see you. If you continue like this, your health will collapse."
"Don't go, I'm fine. How's things going at Chengqian Palace?"
"Her Majesty the Concubine is in good health. I heard that she has had a good appetite recently, so I don't think she's seriously ill."
"Really? Take good care of her. After all, she is the only pregnant concubine in the palace. If anything happens, I will be held accountable even if I am the queen."
"I understand."
Mu Sili was still waiting for the Queen to frame her, but the Queen put the brakes on at the last minute.
For a while, the day became a little boring.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Ning Que has arrived with the Second Prince."
"Concubine Ning Que? Why is she here? Please come in."
"Sister An, I hope I didn't disturb you."
"You're too polite, sister. I'm bored right now. How did you find time to bring Prince Fuquan here?"
Concubine Ning Que looked helplessly at her son in her arms. He had been talking about his younger brothers and younger brothers these days, and her ears were almost callused from hearing him.
Just now, he was muttering about his younger brother again, and she couldn't stand it anymore, so she thought of bringing him to Chengqian Palace.
Mu Sili looked at Fuquan with amusement and reached out to take him.
"Fuquan is missing his brother. Can Tong'e Niang hold Fuquan and say hello to his brother?"
Fuquan looked at Mu Sili in confusion, then at his mother, and couldn't help but ask the question in his mind.
"Mother, where is my brother?"
Phew!
Concubine Ning Que and Mu Sili couldn't help laughing. Fuquan was quite interesting.
"My little brother is in Tong's mother's belly. We have to wait a few months before we can see him. Is Fuquan willing to wait until his little brother is born?"
After hearing what Mu Sili said, Fuquan looked at her belly and frowned.
"What's going on?"
"Mother Tong, my brother and son can wait, but what about my sister? What should I do with her?"
As soon as Shunzhi came in, he heard Fuquan's words. He was stunned. What did he mean by brothers and sisters? Why didn't he understand?
However, Concubine Ning Que understood. She was afraid that Mu Sili was pregnant with not one but two babies. Otherwise, why would Fuquan say such a thing?
Recently, the Empress Dowager and the Regent died one after another, and there were rumors inside and outside the palace, which were very unfavorable to Shunzhi.
If Mu Sili is really pregnant with twins, and they are a boy and a girl, which represent auspicious offspring, then these rumors will be dispelled.
"Your Majesty, why not ask the imperial physician to come and check the pulse of Concubine Xian."
Shunzhi nodded. Although there was an old saying that children could communicate with spirits, he did not believe it and decided it would be better to find an imperial physician to confirm it.
Mu Sili was calmly stroking her belly. She was pregnant with more than two babies!
If it wasn't just over two months old, the imperial physician would have already figured out how many babies she was pregnant with.
After the imperial physician took the patient's pulse, he also showed a look of surprise.
"What's wrong with Concubine Xian? Just tell me, I can handle it!"
"Reporting to the Emperor, the Concubine Xian is pregnant with four children. I am surprised that the Concubine Xian is so healthy that she can have multiple children in her first pregnancy."
"What? Four!"
Shunzhi was stunned. He only had one prince and two princesses, which made him a rare offspring.
He knew that the outside world said that he had obtained the throne in an illegitimate way, so he had few children. Now Mu Sili gave birth to four babies in one pregnancy, which really surprised him.
"I originally wanted to wait until after you gave birth before promoting you to the rank of Imperial Concubine, but it seems I will have to promote you today."
"emperor?"
"You will have a very difficult pregnancy this time, and I can't bear it, so I want to give you a reward first.
Come, draft an edict. Consort Tong, for her meritorious service in bearing a son and serving the Emperor, is promoted to the rank of Imperial Consort. Her title remains unchanged."
"I thank the emperor for his grace."
Since Shunzhi said so, if she refused, wouldn't it be too disrespectful to Shunzhi? She was not that kind of person.
According to him, the position of imperial concubine will be given to her anyway, so what does it matter if it is earlier or later?
