Mrs. Tong's eyes widened and she opened her mouth to retort, but the butler's voice came from the door and she immediately died down.
But Tong Guowei's words "outsider" broke her heart.
Who has she been doing this for all these years?
In the end, she was just an outsider. If she had not held the position of Concubine Fu Jin, Tong Guowei might have really sent her back to her mother's family.
I feel unwilling, but I can't do anything about it.
"Call him in!"
Tong Guowei had already had some guesses in his mind, but he hadn't done anything because he was just wondering whether the emperor would give their Tong family the last bit of face.
Whether the word "Shen" can be removed and whether the Tonggiya clan can rise in the future depends on this time.
"This servant pays his respects to Master Tong!"
Li Dequan leaned forward slightly. He was the emperor's man, and Tong Guowei was now a commoner, so he had no right to kneel down.
"Eunuch Li, what does the emperor say?"
Tong Guowei didn't care about Li Dequan's changes. The current Tong Mansion was no longer the same as before.
He didn't care about such a small matter.
"Master Tong, the Emperor has ordered that Madam Tong be buried with honor according to the rites for Imperial Noble Consorts. The Imperial Household Department needs to prepare the things, and she will be buried with great ceremony in three days."
Tong Guowei breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the Imperial Noble Consort was not posthumously named the Queen like the previous one, the position of Imperial Noble Consort was already the best.
"What? Three days? Does the Ministry of Internal Affairs need that long to prepare?"
Three days, that is to say, her daughter will be kept in Tong Mansion for three days?
Mrs. Tong's face looked very ugly, and her tone revealed a lot of dissatisfaction.
Li Dequan frowned but said nothing, and didn't even look at Mrs. Tong.
Tong Guowei's face suddenly turned ugly. He suppressed the urge to curse and said, "Eunuch Li, my wife is so sad that she is a little stupid. Please don't pollute the emperor's ears with your crazy words."
Mrs. Tong regretted what she said. She was just anxious.
She looked at Tong Guowei anxiously, and when she thought of what she had said before, she immediately regretted her impulsiveness.
Seeing Li Dequan wanted to explain, but before he could say anything, he heard: "I will return to the palace to serve the emperor first. I will not say much about the affairs of the mansion."
Li Dequan said so, and after the court session, he told Tong Mansion's affairs in detail.
He is the emperor's man, and the secret guards of the Tong Mansion have not been withdrawn. If the emperor knew that he was two-faced, he would be executed by slow slicing.
Besides, that Mrs. Tong deserves to be punished.
Longkodo had developed a domineering character because of her pampering, and she didn't expect that he still wouldn't repent until now.
Anyone with a little common sense would understand what the emperor meant, but she acted like a fool.
I really don't know why Tong Guowei chose that kind of wife. Not only is she stupid, but she can't control her mouth.
"Ah!"
After hearing Li Dequan's report, Kangxi chuckled and turned away without saying anything else.
After bathing, burning incense, and changing into new court robes, Kangxi went to Qingxi Palace.
"Jiaojiao, are you done packing?"
When Kangxi walked in, he saw a woman sitting in front of a dressing table. She was wearing a bright yellow court dress and had a smile on her face.
"Yeah! Okay, time to go?"
He stood up shakily and it took him a while to adjust before he could walk steadily.
"The time has come. It's just right to go now."
In front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Kangxi was still helping Harigana slowly ascend to the high throne.
Some of the courtiers below were veterans, some were newcomers, and finally there were family members and envoys such as Sai Njia who were specially allowed to enter the palace.
Li Dequan read out the imperial edict, and all officials paid homage. Shouts of "Long live the Empress" echoed throughout the palace.
Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong stood together, as well as Concubine Yi who was released early.
Looking at the two people at the top, they had different thoughts.
Concubine Hui no longer wanted to struggle. Her greatest wish was for her son to have a good future.
Concubine Yi's eyes were filled with jealousy and resentment. Although it was only for a moment, it was seen by the young eunuch not far away.
Thinking of Li Dequan's instructions, he lowered his eyebrows and pretended that he saw nothing.
However, Rong Fei still knelt down and saluted the two people above calmly, looking very respectful, and there was no sign of anything wrong.
After the ceremony, Harigana went directly to the Qianqing Palace and changed into a bright red phoenix robe in Kangxi's bedroom, just like last time.
"Your Majesty, what do you think?"
Dulan had been carrying a small cloth bag mysteriously since the beginning of the morning, and he held it tightly wherever he went.
Harigana thought it was some food, but unexpectedly it was her sunflowers.
"Princess, I'll bring it to you!"
The big red sunflower was the one she said she would never have the chance to wear in her lifetime when she was standing on the hill.
Now, only a year has passed, and she has become the queen. She can stand beside Kangxi openly and wear the red color that only the main wife can wear.
"Okay! Thank you, my little Dulan!"
When Kangxi came out of the side hall after changing his clothes, he happened to see Dulan bringing her the sunflower, the same one he had brought when he first met Harigana.
"Jiaojiao, very beautiful."
Standing beside her, he saw that everything was almost cleaned up, waved his hand and told everyone to leave.
"what happened?"
Harigana turned around, and Kangxi squatted at her feet, helping her straighten her clothes: "Tong Jia, she's gone!"
"what?"
After hearing what Kangxi said, she was a little confused.
Although the imperial physician had said before that it would shorten lifespan, he didn't say it would happen so soon.
"When did this happen? Why are you telling me now?"
"Jiaojiao, the secret guard said that she caught a cold and secretly poured out the medicine prescribed by the palace doctor. She figured it out on her own."
Harigana will be fine after a while. He just heard it suddenly and was a little confused.
In her previous life, when she was hospitalized, she had seen people who died from the age of two or three to the age of eighty or ninety.
There were always people missing in the hospital almost every day. She felt uncomfortable at first, but later, she became numb.
There will still be discomfort, but what is greater than discomfort is regret.
Although he recovered, there was still confusion on his face.
"Xuanye, then, today, I..."
Maybe she won’t say a few words if it’s not good!
What's wrong with that? It wasn't her who asked Tong Jia to die.
There is no need to pity those who bring disaster upon themselves.
She said this just to let Kangxi see how magnanimous she was.
As for the rest, she had no idea.
"Jiaojiao, today is your big day, I have asked someone to take care of it.
Don't think too much, it has nothing to do with you.
I'm telling you this so you know what's going on. Although I've already asked someone to handle it, if word gets out, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it."
Kangxi didn't think of telling her now, thinking that he would tell her in the evening after the banquet.
But there were many people at the palace banquet, and if someone talked about Tong Jia's affairs, she was afraid that she would not be able to understand.
