"I pay my respects to the Empress. Why is she here? If you wish to see me, please send someone to let me know. I will be able to come over."
"What's the big deal? We're so close, I'll just go out and relax. Do you still remember Uyama?"
"Ma'an? Why did Your Majesty mention her? To be honest, she and I are very good sisters, but the strange thing is that she has stopped associating with me since I became favored. I am very puzzled.
Before, I lived in the Palace of Heavenly Purity, so it was not convenient to ask her to go there to talk to me. But now I have moved out of the Palace of Heavenly Purity, but I still can't find her.
Sometimes I wonder if it’s because I became a concubine that she has distanced herself from me, but this is not something I can decide. If she really thinks so, I will be sad.”
Concubine Tong looked at her with sympathy. It was difficult for her. She was trying to exonerate Uyama, but who would have thought that the other person was now thinking that she had snatched away her chance to rise to the top.
They are sisters. I'm afraid Uyama has already treated her as an enemy in her heart. Otherwise, she would not have come to her palace to recommend herself and want to help her consolidate her favor.
The other party seemed to be ambitious, but not too ambitious. Her tricks were really not very impressive, and only Mu Sili could not see through them.
"I'm telling you, stay away from her when you see her next time. You treat her as a sister, but she may not necessarily treat you as a sister."
As soon as Mu Sili saw Concubine Tong's expression, she knew what she was planning. After thinking about it carefully, she felt that there was nothing wrong with it. After all, this was not the first time they had worked together.
"Your Majesty, are you trying to form an alliance with me? But I am just a humble noble, how could Your Majesty be interested in me?"
There was confusion and curiosity in her eyes, which made Concubine Tong feel a little guilty. What she had thought of before was not an alliance, but to pull her into her camp and make her her own, so that her offspring could naturally become part of Chengqian Palace.
Unfortunately, Kangxi did not agree to let her live in Chengqian Palace, but let her live in Qianqing Palace. At that moment, she knew that she meant more to Kangxi than she had imagined. Since she could not be his person, she might as well become his ally.
Hadn't the Empress always disliked her? She wanted to see who would be more favored by Emperor Kangxi, her or that Uyamalun she had found.
However, it goes without saying that Mu Sili is more favored. After all, Kangxi has made many exceptions for her, and there is even a tendency for him to favor her alone.
"It would be a lie to say that I have no selfish motives. After all, no one would be nice to others for no reason, and I am no exception.
It’s just that you have many advantages over others. The emperor dotes on you. I have admired the emperor since I was a child. I love him so much that I like everything about him. Whatever he likes, I naturally like.
You also know that I have been fighting with the Queen for many years. If it were not for certain reasons, I would not have missed the position of Queen. Of course, I am not asking you to help me become the Queen, but I can't stand the Queen.
The queen is a smiling woman with a dagger hidden behind her. She appears to be dignified, generous and understanding on the surface, but she is the most cruel behind the scenes. You don't know how many people have died in her palace for no reason.
If I weren't just a concubine and didn't bother to care about her palace affairs, and the emperor trusted her, I really wanted to go to the emperor and report her to the emperor. "
Mu Sili twitched her lips unconsciously. Should she say thank you for taking a fancy to her? The Queen was indeed a smiling face with a knife hidden in her heart, but she didn't look very smart either.
She has only been in favor for more than a month, and there is not even good news. She is rushing to win over me and make me form an alliance with her. Isn't she afraid that she will suddenly fall out of favor?
"Your Highness, I understand what you mean. Thank you for taking a liking to me. If you don't mind, I will definitely have more contact with you in the future.
But you also know that I have the best relationship with Uya. I don’t believe she would do anything to hurt me. I have a close relationship with her. If she really harms me, I will not let her go.
But if she has her own reasons, then I still want to have some contact with her. Your Majesty suddenly mentioned her, so you must know where she is now. Could you tell me?"
She was originally happy when Mu Sili agreed to form an alliance with her, but after hearing her next words, she felt a little disappointed.
Even after she explained it so clearly, she still wanted to ask about Uyama's whereabouts. So she just told her. After all, the queen had been training her for so long, and it was almost time for her to push her out to consolidate her favor.
I just hope that when the Queen pushes her out, Mu Sili can remain calm and not part ways with her just because the other party becomes the Queen's person.
Of course, she believed that between her and the other person, Mu Sili would know who was better and would make the right choice.
"If you want to know, I won't hide it from you, but you have to be prepared. She is in Kunning Palace right now, not serving the Queen, but being taken away by the Queen to be trained.
You also know that the Queen entered the palace in the same year as me. I have no children, and so does she. Now that she is the Queen, she naturally hopes to have a child to consolidate her position.
It’s not that there were people who wanted to be the queen before, but unfortunately the queen felt that she could give birth to a child, so she didn’t want any. But now she probably feels that it’s better to adopt one than to give birth to one herself, so she brought her back.
Wu Ya is an ambitious woman. After you were favored, she came to Chengqian Palace and wanted me to keep her there. She also said she would help me consolidate my favor. I rejected her because it was her first offense. I didn't expect that the Empress would fall in love with her in the end. Tsk tsk tsk.
As Concubine Tong spoke, she sighed and said that Uya was a capable woman. The fact that she could attract someone as deep-minded as the Queen showed that she was not as pitiful as she appeared.
Yes, although she was a palace maid who was selected at a young age, the Uya clan behind her was a bannerman family, and she was raised as a Manchu princess at home, so it is not surprising that she had ambitions.
It's a pity. If Mu Sili had asked her to serve in the Qianqing Palace instead of her, their identities would have been swapped by now. How could she be the queen?
"In Kunning Palace? Why would she be in Kunning Palace? Didn't she say before that she would never go to Kunning Palace again after seeing how cruelly the Empress dealt with the palace maids behind her back? Is she trying to trick me?"
Mu Sili showed a look of disappointment at the right time, which made Concubine Tong feel even more guilty. Kangxi had always loved and doted on her. If he knew that she had made him so sad, wouldn't he scold her?
"Actually, what I said was all information I got from the palace servants of Chengqian Palace, but I believe they wouldn't dare to lie to me. If you don't believe me, you can send someone to investigate.
It's already this hour, and I should go back to Chengqian Palace. Remember what you said before, come visit Chengqian Palace more often, whether you have something to do or not. I'm quite bored too."
