Quickly wear it and get rid of his virtuous character

Su Tong was ready to make things difficult for them, but now there was good news. Their Queen Ulanara was still alive. This was a little different from what was recorded in history books, but it was also a good thing for him.

The Qing Dynasty's harem is somewhat different from other harems. The princes are noble because of their mothers. Only the status of a concubine becomes more and more precious, so the princes become precious.

Concubine Xi was also lucky. She was born into the Niuskull family. Although her father was only a fourth-rank official, it was also considered a big Manchu family. She gave birth to a promising son like Qianlong, so she became a concubine.

Now the Emperor's favorite Concubine Nian has passed away, and the Empress will also die this autumn. By then, the entire harem will be under the control of Concubine Xi. It must be said that this woman's luck is really too good.

But what if the current Empress was still alive? You must know that the current Emperor still has two years left. If the Empress lived until the Emperor's death, then she would be the extremely honorable Mother Empress Dowager, and Concubine Xi could only be the Holy Mother Empress Dowager.

The Queen Mother, the Empress Dowager, is the legitimate mother. As long as she is alive, Concubine Xi will never be legitimate, and she will never be able to surpass the Queen Mother, the Empress Dowager in this life.

Su Tong was planning to make things more difficult for the other party, so he asked people to prepare some medicinal herbs. Anyway, the fifteenth day was coming soon, and it was time to go to the palace to pay respects to the Queen and Concubine Xi. Although Concubine Xi was his mother-in-law in name, the Queen was still alive. As long as the Queen was alive, she would always be the mistress of the harem.

Fu Cha was now pregnant and her body was getting heavier, so the maid's master did not let Fu Cha go to pay her respects, but Su Tong went. Although she was a concubine, in the Qing Dynasty, a concubine was actually the mistress of Yu Die.

Su Tong first paid his respects to the queen, then took out the medicinal herbs he had prepared and pretended to be extremely considerate.

"I heard that the Empress Dowager has been unable to sleep at night and coughs frequently, so my daughter-in-law specially found a folk doctor and some precious medicinal materials to make pills. She also specially asked the imperial physician to take a look. The medicine is quite effective. The Empress Dowager can take one pill before going to bed. It can not only calm her cough, but also help her fall asleep peacefully."

The queen was quite fond of this young man from the same clan. She smiled and nodded, accepting the gift. "You are thoughtful, but since you are married into the Prince Bao's mansion, you should have children as soon as possible."

Su Tong pursed his lips and smiled bitterly, "Maybe my daughter-in-law is unlucky and can't please me. The only thing I can do is to be filial to my elders and let me worry less."

The queen was not a fool. Although her health was getting worse, she had heard something about the goings-on in Prince Bao's mansion. Prince Bao Hongli was now in the limelight, and the most favored one in the mansion was his concubine Gao.

The queen coughed hard twice, and a blush appeared on her pale face. "You are a filial child. The emperor gave me a jade ruyi before. You can take it back later. I wish you all the best."

"Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your reward." Su Tong also knew that it was not appropriate for the Empress to intervene in this matter now. Even though Hongli was now the Empress's son in name, it was not appropriate for the Empress to interfere in the affairs of the other party's mansion.

Not to mention that the queen had neither a son nor the emperor's favor, and the only thing she could rely on was these titles. But sometimes these titles were enough. As long as the queen was alive, Concubine Xi and Hongli would not dare to make her angry.

After paying his respects to the Queen, Su Tong went to pay his respects to Concubine Xi and, as usual, presented her with some medicinal herbs, all of which were particularly precious tonics.

Concubine Xi asked a few questions in a pretentious manner, mostly about how the concubine was doing, and at the same time asked them to be respectful and not to make the concubine angry.

Su Tong naturally agreed respectfully. After leaving the palace, Su Tong's expression immediately changed. He only hoped that the Queen would feel at ease taking the herbs since he had worked so hard to make them. At least taking them could prolong her life. Even if she couldn't live to be ninety-nine, at least she would live for a few more decades.

At night, when the queen was preparing to go to bed, her head was aching and her body was much weaker than before. Even her lungs ached slightly when she breathed. The maid beside the queen could not bear it anymore and took out a pill that Su Tong had prepared.

"Why don't you give it a try, Madam? After all, the imperial physician has looked at these pills and they are all excellent medicinal materials. They may really be able to heal your body."

Hearing the words of the palace maid, the queen reluctantly raised her eyelids, picked up a black pill and put it into her mouth. She felt the fragrance of the medicine in her mouth. After taking it with honey water, her body and mind began to feel comfortable, and her lungs no longer ached as before.

"I don't know if it's an illusion, but I feel like I'm much stronger than before." A blush appeared on the queen's pale face, and even her eyelids began to droop slowly, indicating that she was obviously sleepy.

The head palace maid smiled with surprise. It had been a long time since the Queen felt so sleepy like today. She immediately helped the Queen to bed and even lit some calming incense.

The night lasted till dawn. When the queen woke up again, it was already slightly light. She had not slept so deeply as she did today for a long time. She felt that her mind was much clearer today than yesterday.

"It seems that the concubine was really thoughtful. The things she sent did have some effect." Perhaps because of the good sleep, the queen's appetite also improved. She even had a bowl of green glutinous rice porridge and two milk dumplings.

The queen thought it was just a coincidence at first, but after taking the pills for several days in a row, she found that her body was getting stronger day by day, and she could even go for a walk outside with the help of a palace maid.

Moreover, after the imperial physician came and took his pulse, he found that his health was much better than before, and his previous serious illness began to disappear.

Although the queen has been depressed, it does not mean that she really does not want to live. Seeing that there is hope to survive, the queen's whole spirit is different from before.

When Emperor Yongzheng learned that the empress was in much better health than before, a smile appeared on his face. After all, they were a young couple, and even though they treated each other with respect now, they still had feelings for each other.

When Emperor Yongzheng learned that the Empress' health began to improve after she took the medicinal herbs sent by Prince Bao's concubine, he immediately asked the eunuchs to reward her with a large number of things. At the same time, Su Tong also gained a reputation for being filial.

In fact, Hongli did not like his concubine. Although Unalana was the most beautiful woman in Manchuria and Mongolia, she was a wooden beauty. Compared with Gao's gentleness and thoughtfulness, Jin's beauty, and Su's frailty, this concubine really had nothing to show for herself.

Although Hongli didn't like her, he thought that this concubine was from the same mother's family as the empress, so he gave her some face. He wanted to keep her as an ordinary concubine in the backyard, but when he thought about the reward she received from the emperor, he planned to go to her yard at night and sit for a while, but didn't plan to stay overnight.

When Su Tong learned that the other party was just sitting there, she instantly felt relieved. She didn't have the patience to deal with such a scumbag, so she continued to act like a wooden beauty, nodding woodenly at whatever the other party said, and when the other party didn't understand the rules, she would point them out directly and deliberately poke at the other party's lungs.
