Quick Wear: I was a Favored Concubine in the Qing Dynasty
Chapter 8 Kangxi Defei
In the past few years, Yu Sui followed Kangxi to Jiangnan and the frontier. Then time passed quickly and the child grew up.
Ailanzhu and Shuyierha were also of marriageable age, but the Empress Dowager wanted them to stay with her, and he felt guilty, so both daughters stayed in the capital. But none of them married into the Tong family, and Kangxi chose families with clean and promising futures around him.
Both of Concubine De's daughters were married in the capital. Many people with daughters in the harem broke their handkerchiefs. Why? It was a national policy to pacify the Mongols. Why didn't they have to follow it? But no matter how unwilling they were, they didn't dare to confront Kangxi. They were afraid that if they angered Kangxi, their daughters would marry worse!
Ailanzhu lived a very comfortable life after marriage. She was raised by the empress dowager, the emperor's beloved daughter, and respected by her husband's family. Her husband was a good man, and there were no other people around him. They had the same interests and hobbies, and they lived in harmony.
The princess's residence is in the capital, close to the imperial palace. When she misses her mother, father, or mother, she can just hand over a sign and go back. Life is easy, happy, and comfortable. Ailanzhu is extremely satisfied with her current life.
Within two years, Shu Yierha got married, and the two sisters often made plans to return to the palace together.
Time passed very quickly, but what was supposed to happen still happened. Fourteenth Prince was still hanging out with Eighth Prince. She knew Fourteenth Prince's purpose, but she never intervened, let alone interfered.
In the fiftieth year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, Nian entered the palace. As soon as she entered, she was favored by Prince Yong and was highly favored.
The Mid-Autumn Festival was the first time that Yu Suisui saw Yongzheng’s true love, this sickly and weak true love. However, Yu Suisui only took a glance at this gentle and delicate little white flower, but what did it have to do with her?
When Nian saw that Concubine De looked at her and then turned away, she felt a little aggrieved. Of course, it was not for her, but for the Fourth Master. Concubine De treated the people in the Fourth Master's mansion politely and distantly. These were the wives and concubines of her own son! Concubine De really favored the youngest son as the rumors said. She treated the eldest son coldly.
Yu Suisui didn't care about the affairs of the Fourth Master or the Fourteenth Master's mansion. She had never taken the initiative to meet anyone in the previous selections, but she still sent the original team over according to the original owner's memory. However, because of this, the Fourth Master thought that she was partial to the youngest son. After all, there were only two Manchu noble ladies in a mansion, and one was too many. He couldn't get anything from the relationship of the Manchu nobles!
Shu Yierha understood her mother better. She really didn't like her brother or her younger brother. She didn't know how to persuade her. It was very difficult to change her mother's mind.
Mother once said that she and Fourth Brother would never reconcile until the Tong family died out. Although she didn't know why, she felt that she should listen to Mother.
The Tong family alienated the Fourth Master from Concubine De, and even though Concubine De had maternal love, she could not stand the repeated abuse and finally even hated her own son. But this was related to both Concubine De and the Fourth Master, and was determined by their personalities.
As for my younger brother, in my mother's words, it is useless for a person with a confused mind to say anything, especially a person with a confused mind who is self-righteous and selfish.
Forget it. Shu Yierha thought about these things and the rumors in and outside the palace, and actually agreed with what her mother said. People can be selfish, but they cannot be selfish without moral bottom line. How much filial piety can we expect from two people who can use their own mother to build reputation and use her as a knife to stab their brothers?
In my mother's words: she was afraid that she would not live long enough to enjoy her son's filial piety.
The Fourth and Fourteenth Concubine have already gotten used to it. Concubine De treats them indifferently, and is even not as nice as she treats the Thirteenth Concubine.
Even though the Thirteenth Lady and the Thirteenth Prince were now confined at home, the annual rewards given by Concubine De were always a bit more generous than those given to others. And these others were referring to them.
The Thirteenth Prince was actually raised by Concubine De, and he didn't move to the Prince Residence until he started to study. He was considered Concubine De's adopted son, and he came to Concubine De's place with them before the incident.
But why didn't anyone tell others that Concubine De gave Thirteen such a large reward? People always make decisions that are beneficial to themselves. In Yu Sui's eyes, Thirteenth Prince is indeed a chivalrous child.
Yu Suisui often asked her two daughters to visit the Thirteenth Prince at his residence. She also secretly sent someone to send money to the Thirteenth Prince.
Until the end of Kangxi's era and the beginning of Yongzheng's era, Yu Suisui had always been calm. She had to hold on for another two years and look after her two daughters.
"Your Majesty, we will be moving to the Cining Palace tomorrow. Do you want to wait a little longer?" Lu Rong has become an aunt by herself. She is now the head aunt of the Yonghe Palace and will also become the head aunt of the Cining Palace.
However, Yu Suisui had a trick up her sleeve. She asked Kangxi for an imperial decree, and when Yongzheng ascended the throne, she would move to Changchun Garden. She didn't want to become a tool for them to show their filial piety in the palace.
"My lady, Concubine Nian is here to pay her respects to you." Lu Rong told her master the news that Concubine Nian had come. Lu Rong knew that her master didn't want to see her, but she still informed him.
"No." She didn't want to see any woman in Yongzheng's harem.
After waiting for Kangxi's funeral to be over, she moved to Changchun Garden.
"The Queen Mother is busy now and cannot see guests. Please go back first, Concubine Nian." Lu Rong politely sent Concubine Nian away. Her master did not like the emperor, and also did not like everyone related to the emperor. She never tried to persuade him because she knew there was no solution.
Concubine Nian's already pale face turned even paler. She just wanted to beg the Queen Mother not to treat the Emperor like this anymore. They are both her own sons, why do you treat the Emperor like this? What are the rumors outside now? Why doesn't the Queen Mother come out to explain?
Who would have thought that the Queen Mother would not see her at all! She had always been favored, and she thought that she was the Emperor's favorite concubine, and the Queen Mother would not refuse to see her. Who would have thought that this would be the outcome. She felt so embarrassed that she wanted to run into the tunnel.
Besides, Concubine Nian was pregnant, so it was even more impossible for Yu Suisui to see such a delicate concubine. Women in the harem were troublesome, let alone a pregnant woman?
"Ask the emperor to come and see me." Yu Suisui didn't want to see these troubles, so he simply solved them together.
"I will go and ask the emperor to come over now."
When the queen heard people around her say that Concubine Nian went to Yonghe Palace to see the empress dowager, she sneered, another person who was asking for trouble. The empress dowager, this empress dowager, was not an ordinary person. After decades, she knew clearly that it was not a rumor that the empress dowager did not like the emperor, but a fact.
After so many years, Nian still didn't realize that there was no solution between the emperor and the empress dowager, otherwise the cold treatment they had shown for decades was fake?
When rumors were spreading inside and outside the palace, she had tactfully reminded the Queen Mother, but what did the Queen Mother, who was still Consort De at the time, say: I know. She said it lightly, not caring at all. Did she not care about how they were said or who they were talking about? Maybe she didn't care about either!
Yongzheng was surprised to know that Yu Suisui wanted to see him. His mother had been indifferent to him for decades, and his heart had long been cold. What use could she make now? But he went anyway.
"Your son pays his respects to the Empress Dowager." Yongzheng arrived at the Yonghe Palace and paid his respects according to the rules.
Yu Suisui waved his hand and took out a letter written by Kangxi.
"Your Royal Father said before he passed away that after his death and the funeral was over, I would move to Changchun Garden. As for the concubines in the palace, you will arrange everything. Your Royal Father's funeral is over, and I also plan to move to Changchun Garden. This is your Royal Father's handwritten letter, take a look!" Yu Suisui handed two pieces of letter paper to Yongzheng.
The Empress Dowager actually wanted to live alone in Changchun Garden. Why did she dislike him so much? Did she hate him so much that she couldn't stand living in the Forbidden City together?
The character is the emperor’s character, but why would the emperor agree to it?
Yongzheng couldn't figure it out. He didn't know what he had done to anger God and the people that made the Empress Dowager hate him to such an extent?
"Why?" If that's the case, why did you give birth to him?
Yu Suisui heard it, but after thinking about it, he decided it would be better to answer it. After all, the original owner's resentment and hatred were not without reason.
"I can't remember why, but there are many reasons! Just like I once looked forward to your arrival, but I also regretted giving birth to you. You see, how ridiculous this is? You were born in the hands of Tong Jia, which means we are destined not to be mother and son. I have tried hard to forget it all, but I remember it very clearly. What if Tong Jia died? The evil she and the Tong family suffered will not disappear. What if my son died, my daughter died, and Tong Jia died? Can they come back to life?
You see, you were taught very well by Tong Jia. In your heart, I am just a mother who sold her son for fame. How can I compare to the imperial mother who treated you so well in every way. So let it be in this life! It's just like this. Just treat it as if you and I are not destined to be together. Don't ask for an afterlife. If there is an afterlife, I will definitely not want to be your mother again. You can blame me if you want. People are selfish. I am, and so are you. So don't pay attention to these rumors. After so many years, you and I both know where they come from. It's good to be a selfish and heartless person. So let it be! From now on, you and I will go our separate ways, and dying in peace is probably the best ending."
Defei knew that her children, the sixth child and her daughter were all related to Empress Tong and the Tong family, but her merits were not enough, and she could not offer enough as the price for the transaction, so Yu Sui could only return later. Defei spent three lifetimes of merit to save her two daughters, and she could no longer spare the merit to save the two children who died young.
After listening to Yu Suisui's words, Yongzheng found her so calm, as if she was telling someone else's story.
If what my mother said was true, how could he face her? He had also contributed to the rumors over the years. He actually knew that he and Fourteen were treated mediocrely by my mother, but why did he not know it all this time? Now he knew, but what about Fourteen? What was he doing for?
But Yu Suisui didn't say anything more. What's the point of saying more? The Tong family is doing well now, and the Uya clan is still living well.
The Queen Mother moved to Changchun Garden. When Concubine Nian found out, she couldn't believe it. Why couldn't the Queen Mother help the Emperor at the height of this crisis?
Yu Suisui went on to live his own life.
Since then, Yu Suisui rarely saw people, and even refused to attend palace banquets on the pretext of illness. The two daughters occasionally came to accompany her for a meal and chat. As for the fourteenth prince who was sent to guard the imperial mausoleum, she had never met the fourteenth wife.
Later, when the Eighth Master's party collapsed, Yu Suisui never met the Eighth and Ninth Concubines.
Yu Suisui calculated the time and prepared to finish this mission. She arrived late this time and had to follow the original owner's personality to follow a rough route, which almost suffocated her.
She will take a good vacation after she returns, and then be a fat house fish for a while. She will play with her phone all day and night, and she will go online to find some handsome boys to cheer her up, because the current money rat tail braids are really ugly.
At about the same time, after Yu Sui met his two daughters and told them about his funeral arrangements, he clapped his hands and returned to the Space-Time Bureau.
Ailanzhu and Shu Yierha looked at each other, wondering what they should say since their mother didn't say a word to the emperor and Fourteenth.
After Defei's funeral, Ailanzhu and Shu Yierha's sadness had just begun. Sometimes when they were eating, they would inexplicably order dishes that their mother liked, and then suddenly find that their mother was gone.
His mother was gone. Yongzheng thought of what she had said before: she hoped that they would have no relationship in the next life. Was he sad? Yes, but it seemed that this sadness was nothing.
