"Is all the evidence of the crimes committed by the Uya clan here?"
"It's all here, some of it even involves the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I can't make the decision, so I brought the evidence back with me.
There are also some that involve the Imperial Kitchen, which I have put aside. Your Majesty, may I take a look at this first?"
Liang Jiugong handed the evidence about the imperial kitchen to Kangxi, and Concubine De's face turned as pale as paper.
When Kangxi saw her appearance, he knew that they had tampered with the imperial kitchen.
When Kangxi thought about the uncleanness of his imperial kitchen, he wanted to overhaul it immediately.
Otherwise, one day he would surely be attacked by the imperial kitchen. He was an emperor, but he was also a man of flesh and blood!
When he saw Concubine De ordering people to use contraception for the concubines in the harem based on the principle of food incompatibility, he stepped forward and slapped Concubine De in the face.
He said that he was in such good health and had spent every day in the harem in the past few years, but very few concubines were pregnant.
It turns out that it was Concubine De and the Uya family who were behind this!
There were also some concubines who had no idea they were pregnant and had miscarriages for no reason due to the meals arranged by Concubine De.
That would be fine, she did the same to Mu Sili before she got pregnant.
However, he had to say that Mu Sili was lucky. The meals prepared by Concubine De contained anti-fertility drugs, but she was still able to get pregnant, which showed that she was blessed by God.
"Come here, Concubine De is unkind and unworthy of being a concubine. Considering that she gave birth to the Fourth Prince, the Sixth Prince, and the Ninth Princess, she will be demoted to a concubine and imprisoned in the palace for life.
As for the palace maid Yanruo who served her and the servant who had caused Concubine Min to give birth prematurely, they were dragged to the street and beaten to death with sticks.
"If anyone dares to murder the imperial concubines and the heir to the throne, I will not give them a chance to live. Their families will all be sent to Ningguta to do hard labor and will never be allowed to return to the capital."
"yes."
Before Concubine De could react, she was dragged away by Liang Jiugong and his men. A concubine who was banished to the cold palace was not worth their trouble.
At this time, the people sent by Mu Sili also arrived.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Min has sent this servant to ask for mercy for the two princesses."
"Minpin? She didn't take a good rest, so why did she ask you to come and ask for mercy for the princess at this time? Tell me, what mercy?"
Kangxi was still furious just now, but when he heard Mu Sili's words of asking for mercy for his two daughters, he immediately put away the anger on his face.
He originally thought that Mu Sili wanted to ask him to grant titles to his two daughters, but he didn't expect that she was asking him to keep them in Beijing and not marry them out.
"Her Majesty said that the two princesses were hard-earned, and she is reluctant to send them away to marry when they grow up, so she would like to ask you to issue an order to keep the two princesses in the capital."
Kangxi smiled helplessly. The twelfth and thirteenth sisters were twins, a boy and a girl. Even if she didn't tell him, he would never send them to marry.
Few princesses who were married off to foreign countries had a good ending. He knew this all himself, so how could he be willing to send them to marry off?
But something is wrong. Something must have happened, otherwise she wouldn't have asked someone to come and ask for mercy now.
"What happened in Qixiang Palace?"
"I don't know, but Aunt Suma left the palace before I left. I think she went back to the Cining Palace to announce the good news to the Grand Empress Dowager."
Kangxi narrowed his eyes. He realized that Su Malagu must have said something to Mu Sili, which was why she hurriedly sent someone to ask for mercy from him.
It probably won’t be long before someone from the Cining Palace comes to invite him.
He wanted to see whether the Queen Mother really intended to let his two newborn daughters marry!
"Go back and tell Concubine Min to relax and take care of herself during the confinement period. I will not send them to marry.
Let her recover her health, and now we can look for candidates for her husband. When the princesses grow up, I will build princess palaces for them.
My daughters are born noble. I didn't give birth to them just to marry into foreign countries and suffer."
"Yes, I will convey the Emperor's words to Your Majesty word for word. I will take my leave."
In less than a quarter of an hour, people from the Cining Palace arrived.
Kangxi just stared at the person who came. Today was really lively.
He first dealt with the black sheep Defei, and then Mu Sili's people came to ask for mercy. Not long after, people from Cining Palace also arrived.
"Tell me, what is the purpose of the Royal Mother summoning me here at this time? If you can't explain it, I won't go. After all, I have a lot of things to do here."
When the man saw a bitter look on his face, he knew that this was not an easy job and he might be punished.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I am here on the orders of the Grand Empress Dowager to invite you to the Cining Palace to discuss something. I don't know what the matter is.
However, before I came here, Aunt Suma went back home. I think it is related to what Aunt Suma said, but I really don’t know the specific situation. ”
Kangxi curled his lips in boredom. He was really easily frightened. If it were someone else, they would definitely find a random excuse to trick him first.
Forget it, he is a wise ruler. He is too lazy to argue with him, so as to avoid rumors spreading that he is a tyrant. After all, he just ordered the killing of two slaves.
"Okay, I'll go there. Liang Jiugong, get ready. I'm going to the Cining Palace."
"yes."
By the time Kangxi arrived at the Cining Palace, Xiaozhuang was already impatient.
Especially when she heard that Kangxi had beaten and killed his servants, she became even more dissatisfied.
Now that she saw Kangxi, she directly vented her dissatisfaction.
"Xuanye, you are the emperor. Even if your servants have committed any mistakes, you can just let the Ministry of Internal Affairs handle it. Beating them to death in the street will give people an opportunity to accuse you of being cruel.
You must know that there are many people who are eyeing your throne, just like the remnants of the previous dynasty, they are always thinking of dragging us down.
If this gets out, will your reputation and the Qing Dynasty's reputation be ruined?"
Kangxi did not expect Xiaozhuang to suddenly get angry, but he was not afraid.
The reason why Xiaozhuang said this was simply to seize the initiative and make the negotiations go in her favor.
But how could he make this happen?
"Did the Queen Mother summon me here just for this matter? If so, I have to go back to the Palace of Heavenly Purity. After all, I am very busy and have no time to deal with such trivial matters.
Moreover, the crimes they committed are worthy of the extermination of their entire clan. Imperial Mam does not need to feel sorry for them, as I have already treated them with leniency."
"Wait, this is not the reason why I asked you to come here."
Kangxi paused as he walked out. He wanted to hear what she was going to say.
"Then please tell me why you asked me to come here now, Mama?"
