The stunning beauty of Qing Dynasty

For a moment, the whole Yonghe Palace was filled with joy.

As the sky gradually darkened, Liang Jiugong estimated that it was almost time, so he stepped forward to break the harmonious atmosphere, "Your Majesty, it's time for dinner."

Kangxi himself had raised a prince, so he knew that the children would probably be a little hungry at this time. "Well, my beloved concubine, haven't you just hired a chef from Jiangnan? You all should stay and taste the Jiangnan flavor with me."

When Concubine De heard this, her eyes moved. She was very surprised that the emperor stayed at her place for half a day today, but she didn't expect that he would stay here for dinner. It seems that the portions of these children are larger than she thought! After Concubine De gave some instructions to the maids around her, she smiled and said to Kangxi: "I am asking for a favor. If this cook does a good job, why don't you reward him well?"

Kangxi held Honghui and Yilejia by the hand and said with a hearty smile: "Okay, my beloved concubine is right. If you do well, I will reward you with 100 taels of silver."

Yinzhen was also very surprised that the emperor invited his family to have dinner in the palace. The princes who had left the palace had never stayed in the palace for meals, and this was the first time for them.

In addition, the harem received the news that Kangxi had invited Yinzhen's family to dine in the palace of Concubine De. Many concubines with grandchildren and children secretly cursed that Concubine De was indeed scheming. At such an old age, the emperor basically would not go to these concubines' palaces. The emperor loved beauty, and most of the concubines who went there were those who had just come in and were young. Unexpectedly, today, she was staying in Yonghe Palace because of her grandson, and many vases and ornaments in the house were in trouble again! For this reason, after today, the concubines with grandchildren summoned their daughters-in-law with grandchildren more often, and they came to the palace every two or three days. It was not until Kangxi heard that a child got sick because of the tossing back and forth that he stopped this trend.

During this period, Longkodo was not stopped by anyone else, and his behavior became more and more rampant. Kangxi sat on the dragon throne, watching Longkodo and the prince's actions with cold eyes, and his murderous intent towards Longkodo became stronger and stronger. Nalan Mingzhu, who was old and cunning, saw everything. The emperor was afraid of the prince and had already had murderous intentions towards Longkodo. The rabbit was born with the fox's grief. The eldest prince was reckless and did have the talent of a general, but he was not the seedling of an emperor at all. The eldest prince and the prince competed against each other, which definitely irritated the emperor. He understood that the emperor's tolerance for the eldest prince was also limited. After all, the emperor and the eldest prince were father and son, and he would be soft on him, but the emperor would never forgive him. He only hoped that his death could spare his family and descendants. A sad look swept across Nalan Mingzhu's eyes for a second, so short that no one noticed it. When people looked closely, it was the elegant and shrewd Shangshu of the Six Ministries again.

In the fifth year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, the Flying Guillotine had already found evidence of Longkodo's crimes. It was a rainy day, which seemed to indicate that a rainstorm was about to come.

Kangxi was sitting at the top of the table. When an official who had secretly submitted to him came forward to make a complaint, Kangxi knelt down with a plop and said, "Your Majesty, may your Majesty be blessed with good health. I would like to report that Longke's son had repeatedly robbed women and injured people on the street. His son has bad behavior. Please make a decision, Your Majesty."

The lower-ranking officials in the court looked at each other in bewilderment, not daring to speak out. This involved the prince's uncle, Longkodo, and they dared not interfere and provoke Longkodo's revenge. They did not dare, but the eldest prince's party was very surprised and wanted to take advantage of the situation to kill him. They accused Longkodo of being incompetent in disciplining his children and should be severely punished.

Kangxi was given a headache by their noise. His eyes became serious and he said, "If anyone makes another noise, I will kill him." Suddenly, the court became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Longkodo had a bad feeling in his heart as soon as the man started talking. He knelt down firmly after hearing what he said. His second son was born to his favorite concubine. He usually favored him a lot. Now that he was implicated by him, he wanted to strangle him to death before he was born. When he heard the emperor stop him, he thought the emperor was still on his side. He calmed down and cried, "My second son has committed a serious crime. I didn't take good care of him. I didn't know it. I am very worried. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

Longkodo, who had cleared himself of the crime in a few words, attracted the attention of all the ministers. He had abandoned his son! As expected of a minister in the court, he was ruthless and decisive.

Everyone thought that Longkodo had escaped this disaster, and Longkodo thought so too. Unfortunately, what followed were several pieces of rice paper handed to him by Liang Jiugong.

Everyone looked at this scene in confusion. Kangxi took a quick look, then angrily picked up the pile of rice paper and threw it at the kneeling Longkodo.

"You are so good, Longkodo. I didn't know you had done so many good things!"

Longkodo picked up a piece of paper tremblingly, and looking at the contents inside, he instantly became discouraged and collapsed to the ground. If he didn't know that he was being targeted today, he wouldn't have to be a powerful official.

He lay on the ground in a panic, his body hunched over. He looked several years older in an instant, no longer as high-spirited as usual. "I beg the emperor to spare my family for my merits."

Kangxi sneered, "When I first ascended the throne, I regarded you as my confidant, without any suspicion or precaution. Who would have known that you, whom I regarded as my confidant, would dare to have second thoughts, seek power and accept bribes, abuse your power without authorization, and deceive and betray my kindness? How can I tolerate you!"

Longkodo collapsed in frustration. It was over. Everything was over! Yes! And the crown prince! He looked at the ministers who were on his side. They all avoided his gaze. When the wall collapsed, the monkeys scattered. Longkodo was about to collapse. They didn't dare to speak to him even if they had ten lives.

When the crown prince, who had not attended court due to illness, received the news that Longkodo had been in trouble, he immediately went to plead for mercy to his father the emperor.

When they arrived at the Qianqing Palace, Liang Jiugong stopped at the door and said with a smile: "Please go back, Prince. The emperor has ordered that no one should be seen today."

Yinqi pursed his lips, which were a little dry and pale due to illness, and said bitterly: "Please ask for an audience, Emperor." He knelt stubbornly at the door of the Qianqing Palace, ignoring Liang Jiugong's persuasion. He knew that his uncle Longkodo had committed a serious crime, but he was his confidant minister! If he died, how could he keep his position as the crown prince?

Liang Jiugong looked at the prince kneeling there in a dilemma. After thinking for a while, he realized that he couldn't make the decision on this matter. He gritted his teeth and entered the inner hall. He walked carefully to the side of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the prince has been kneeling outside."

Hearing this, Kangxi paused for a moment while holding the pen. My dear Qi'er, are you forcing me to forgive Longkodo? ! "Let him kneel if he wants! Ignore him."

Liang Jiugong immediately knelt down in fear, bowed briefly and walked out.

The prince's eyes lit up when he saw eunuch Liang Jiugong coming out. He looked at Liang Jiugong who remained silent, smiled bitterly, and continued to kneel.

A few hours later, a heavy drizzle began to fall from the sky. The prince was still kneeling on the spot with a pale face. Liang Jiugong tried to persuade him for a while, but the prince ignored him.

When the gods fight, the people suffer. Facing the conflict between the father and son of the Heavenly Family, Liang Jiugong had no words to express his suffering. These two masters were not easy to mess with. If anything happened, he would definitely lose his head! After thinking about it, he entered the palace again to report to Kangxi.

Kangxi's hand holding the pen trembled, "Whatever."

After a pause, he continued, "Ask the imperial physician to come to the Qianqing Palace and be on standby."

"Yes, Your Majesty"

Liang Jiugong went out, and this time the prince fainted not long after. Fortunately, the imperial physician arrived and treated him in time, so the scene was not in chaos.

In the Prince's Palace, the Crown Princess was startled when the Prince was carried back. Fortunately, the imperial physician was there, so she calmed down and took charge of everything.

After receiving the news, Kangxi was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Am I too good to the prince?" There was no one in the palace, and no one could answer Kangxi.
