Rong Fei is not honored

If Tong Jia succeeds, who else in this palace can be her rival? At that time, even if Tong Jia does not become the queen, she is destined to be a unique and special existence in the six palaces, and no one can shake her in the slightest.

In addition, a woman who can influence the emperor is destined not to be able to influence only the harem. As long as the Tong family of the previous dynasty is not too useless, they will definitely be able to move to a higher level with the support of the Emperor.

As long as Tong Jia could be more successful and give birth to a little prince, even if the Tong family's foundation was still weak, with the Emperor's favoritism, there might be a chance for them to compete for that position. By then, the Tong family's wealth would last for more than three generations.

After realizing this, everyone's eyes towards Tong Jia changed. They didn't expect that Tong Jia, no, the entire Tong family would have such great ambitions.

Could it be that because the Tong family enjoyed the huge benefits brought by women's skirts without any effort, they rose to higher ranks overnight and wanted to replicate their path to success?

The path the Tong family wants to take is indeed easy enough to make people jealous, but not everyone can approve of such behavior, for example, the Niuhulu family.

The reason why the Niuhuru clan became one of the major Manchu clans was not because of the advice of the emperor, but because of the wealth accumulated by the clan members through fighting on the battlefield.

If the men in the clan have no future and only rely on the benefits gained from marrying daughters, even if the Tonggiya clan can gain temporary glory, it will not last long.

The more arrogant you are now, the harder you will fall when you are liquidated in the future.

Moreover, it seems that Tong Jia has not succeeded yet. Is it because she was in conflict with Rong Fei from the very beginning?

That was why His Majesty disliked Tong Jia before he had time to develop feelings for her. In her heart, Concubine Nianhulu elevated Concubine Rong's status a little higher.

Concubine Tong Jia was stunned. She touched her face. In the past, she thought that this was a magic weapon that helped her to be successful in the palace, and also a golden medal that could save her life at the critical moment.

However, now the Emperor told her that it was because of this face that the Emperor refused to see her and refused to perform the ceremony of marriage with her. How could Concubine Tongjia accept this?

"Your Majesty, do you want me to take action against Ma Jia and Nara again, so you deliberately lied to me? You... How could it be because I look like my aunt? How is it possible? This reason is too ridiculous... Let me..." How can I believe it.

Looking at the stubborn Tong Jia, Kangxi not only did not feel any sympathy for her, but was filled with annoyance.

Ridiculous? Deceptive?

It was just that Tong Jia was unwilling to accept that her own calculations had backfired on her, just like she would only resent Ji Nai and Nara for harming her, but would never admit that she was wrong for thinking of harming others first.

Kangxi, having lost his patience, no longer gave Tong Jia any face and spoke directly from his heart.

"If you only had this face, I would never treat you like this.

But you and mother are so much alike. Looking at you is like seeing mother. I… I am not a beast.” How could I have such thoughts about my own biological mother?

The Empress Dowager choked on her own saliva, which was extremely rare for a Empress Dowager who had served three dynasties. Even before she got married, the unrestrained little princess on the grassland had never had such a rude experience.

The Empress Dowager almost couldn't hold her expression. She looked at the equally shocked Su Malagu, and then she was willing to believe that there was nothing wrong with her ears. What the Emperor had just said was indeed...

The Empress Dowager's expression was indescribable. She felt as disgusted and absurd as Emperor Kangxi did at the time.

Concubine Tong Jia looked at the Emperor's expression, which did not seem fake, and her heart was filled with despair. She knew that she was really finished.

If His Majesty really didn't want to touch me for this reason, then unless I was disfigured, or His Majesty suddenly turned into a beast, otherwise...

Moreover, His Majesty spoke of this matter in front of so many people today. Even if His Majesty really turns into a beast in the future, no one else will say anything, but the Empress Dowager will deal with her first before anything really happens for the sake of the royal family's reputation.

Tong Jia concubine suddenly lost all her strength and fell to the ground. No matter how hard Liang Jiugong tried, he was unable to pull up the limp Tong Jia concubine.

Liang Jiugong looked at his emperor with an embarrassed look on his face. It was too embarrassing to see Concubine Tong Jia lying on the ground in such a miserable state in public.

Especially since everyone knew that Concubine Tongjia was like the reincarnation of Empress Dowager Cihe, not only Concubine Tongjia but also Empress Dowager Cihe was embarrassed.

However, without the Emperor's order, Liang Jiugong didn't dare to ask his disciples to help.

After all, his status is there. No matter what, Liang Jiugong is still the most popular person around the Emperor. It is understandable for him to "support" Concubine Tong Jia, but how can he let a few eunuchs pull the master?

Kangxi naturally thought of this, shook his head, and signaled Liang Jiugong to let go of the desperate Tong Jia.

"I still remember how much my mother loved you back then. Even I, her son, couldn't compare to her."

Kangxi was not making this up. Perhaps it was because he was a boy, or perhaps it was because of his personality. Even though both parties wanted to be close to each other, when they really met, they were so awkward that they didn't know how to get along.

It was Tong Jia, on the other hand, because she was her younger brother's child and looked like herself, so the mother liked her very much as soon as she saw her. In addition, the child often lay in the mother's arms and acted coquettishly in order to ask for things, so the relationship between the two seemed closer.

Concubine Tong Jia stood there motionless, not moved at all. Although the Emperor's words seemed to give her hope, she knew very well that such "hope" might not be what she wanted.

As expected, Concubine Tong Jia listened to the Emperor's pronouncement of her fate word by word:

"As long as you don't cause any more trouble in the future, you will still be my cousin, and I will treat you well."

Concubine Tong Jia closed her eyes. Cousin? Oh, how ridiculous!

Before entering the palace, she was full of hope and had imagined the scene when the Emperor called her cousin. She thought that must be her happiest moment.

However, not only was she ignored as soon as she entered the palace, but even the other party acknowledged her identity as his cousin under such circumstances.

Or cousin? Shouldn't it be just cousin? If Tong Jia Xianrui just wanted to be her cousin's sister, why did she enter the palace? She came in to be her cousin's wife.

If not, relying on her status as the emperor's cousin, she could walk around freely outside the palace, so why would she have to come into the palace to be a decoration?

Over the years, she missed the opportunity to enter the palace through the general election due to her age, illness, and the cancellation of the draft.

Later, when she was older, according to the rules, her family could arrange a marriage for her, but she was determined to enter the palace, and her family was unwilling to give up on her, whom they had spent so much effort to cultivate, so she was forced to become an old maid.

She had heard the rumors outside, but so what?

Compared with the future wealth and emperor's favor, what do some sour words matter?

But, it shouldn't be the ending, and it can't be the ending.

Concubine Tong Jia felt that she had been sentenced to death, but others did not think so. In their eyes, the Emperor was too tolerant and too kind to Tong Jia and even the Tong family.

The Grand Empress Dowager couldn't help but frown. In the emperor's heart, was that woman so important?

Even though she had been dead for many years, and even though Tong Jia and the Tong family had made the emperor dislike her, it was for her that the emperor still refused to punish Tong Jia and just let her go.

"Your Majesty, this is too unfair."

"Grandmother, this is already a cruel end for the Tonggiya clan." Kangxi was not lying, he really felt that this was a very harsh punishment.

Yes, he did not want to kill Tong Jia, but who said that death is the most terrifying thing?

He wanted Tong Jia to live and watch his plans fail. All the things he wanted, such as the position of queen and the position of crown prince, would no longer have anything to do with her.

But these things are not something that she can only look up at from afar.

Kangxi wanted Tong Jia to believe from the bottom of her heart that she had the opportunity to get her hands on the position of queen or crown prince.

Seeing something that does not belong to you belong to someone else may make people greedy, but watching something that could have belonged to you slip away is what makes people feel heartbroken.
