"Oh? You are saying you are treating him harshly, but do you have any evidence? The prince has a noble status and is the heir apparent. His food and clothing expenses are equal to or even higher than that of the emperor. Who dares to treat him harshly?"
The Empress Dowager suddenly reached out and placed the tea cup on the golden nanmu table next to her. A few round drops of tea splashed out and fell on it, which further reflected the Empress Dowager's anger.
Seeing the reaction of the actual person in charge of the harem, Sui Lan, the eldest maid, seemed to have seen hope. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed. She cried and begged to the person sitting on the couch: "The Empress Dowager, please help me."
The servants are in charge, they are all old people who have taken care of themselves one after another, how could they treat the prince harshly?"
As he spoke, he carefully looked at Qingyan, who was standing next to him, with his peripheral vision. He looked down and made a very respectful gesture: "Aunt Gu was in Chuxiu Palace today, but she just blocked Concubine Hesheli from paying attention.
Due to my status, I fed His Highness inappropriately and was chased and beaten by the concubine."
After he finished speaking, he cried miserably again.
Bai Lu couldn't help but sweat for her master, kneeling behind Qingyan and looking at her worriedly.
He Zhuer was also kneeling respectfully at the side, looking at Qingyan with a doubtful look on her face.
His master Liang Jiugong also told him last night to be more respectful to Chu Xiugong.
Because of this, he would give Concubine Hesheli a look to remind her in the Chuxiu Palace, but deep down he still didn't feel much for Qingyan.
However, compared to the eldest palace maid Sui Lan and nanny Gu Shi who relied on the power of the late empress to dominate the prince's servants, He Zhuer had no favorable impression at all.
He secretly hoped that Concubine Hesheli could make a big splash this time and really kick these two annoying people away from the prince.
Everyone around her had their own thoughts, but Qingyan had a strange feeling. The Queen Mother didn't seem to mind her beating up her nanny.
·
She admitted that she had selfish motives in doing so.
She deliberately made this matter a big deal, partly to vent her anger on the ignorant young prince, but more importantly, she wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to kick all the people around her who had served the late Queen Hesheli.
Kick away.
One emperor and one courtier.
She is not the original person, nor is she the direct sister of the original person.
When the original person entered the palace, the old people who had stayed behind were divided into two groups.
A large group of people surrounded the little prince, and another small group came to his Chuxiu Palace.
From her original memory, she "saw" the contempt, supervision and hostility of these old people towards her many times.
In fact, this is easy to understand. Those palace ladies who were left alone by Queen Hesheli on her deathbed can be roughly divided into two categories.
One type is loyal to the emperor wholeheartedly. He died early in childbirth, and the second son was so favored by the emperor that he was named the prince. The prince was also smart and an excellent child.
These people will naturally regard the original person who has just entered the palace as someone who comes to "pick peaches".
While feeling sorry for Queen Hesheli, she naturally harbors an invisible hostility towards the original person.
The other type is loyal to the Hesheli family and is the intermediary between the Hesheli family and this deep palace.
Regardless of whether they were the concubines in the Qing harem, or themselves, they would "supervise" them for the sake of the Hesheli family, and then secretly convey palace news to the Hesheli family externally, and internally they would
Promote the family's latest requirements to the concubines.
This is also because the former dynasty and the harem are closely related and are unique products of this feudal era.
·
In history, there were four famous pairs of sisters in the harem of the Kangxi Dynasty.
Three of the couples, the big and small Hesheli family, the Niu Hulu family, and the Tong Jia family, all went to the elder sister, so the younger sister entered the palace and took over most of the people left by her elder sister.
As a visitor in the apocalypse, Qingyan can understand it, but cannot accept it.
She couldn't decide anything else, nor could she fight against it.
She knows how difficult life is and is not an unreasonable person.
But she absolutely cannot tolerate betrayal. In this strange dynasty, there are too few things she can decide, and the Chuxiu Palace is the bottom line in her heart.
She requires that everyone in her palace be of the same mind as her. She doesn't pay attention to ostentation, and she doesn't like to go out with a bunch of people behind her.
In her heart, Chuxiu Palace is now the home where she will live for the rest of her life, so she must not allow outsiders who make her unhappy in her home.
She couldn't do anything about the people Kangxi and the Empress Dowager interfered with in her palace, but she had better get rid of these palace people who had their own masters in their hearts.
Although she thinks so in her heart, Qingyan is not stupid, so she can't talk about it outside.
Even if she is not afraid of the Hesheli family, she still needs such a strong backer in this deep palace where family background is important and there is no smoke.
You can distance yourself, but you can't openly offend.
Resources are just thrown there, and they are wasted if they are not used, right?
Since the original body was sent into this harem by the Hesheli family, the other party must bear the responsibility and protect it, right?
Moreover, upon closer inspection, the Hesheli family owes a lot to the original person...

"Okay, shut up! Crying will give the Ai family a headache." The Empress Dowager couldn't help scolding Sui Lan.
Sui Lan was so frightened that she stopped crying, hiccupped, and quickly covered her mouth.
The Empress Dowager turned her gaze around the entire audience, then leaned back again, leaning on the soft pillow behind her, looking at Qingyan with a half-smile but with some amusement.
"Little Hesheli, now that things have calmed down, can you explain to the Aijia why you did this?"
The Empress Dowager looked straight into Qingyan's eyes with a pair of slightly hazy eyes.
Her eyes were extremely sharp, as if she wanted to see through her eyes what Qingyan was thinking.
If she hadn't had the experience of struggling in the end of the world, Qingyan would really not have the courage to look into the eyes of this powerful old lady.
The whole room fell silent, waiting for Qingyan to speak. The air seemed to be stagnant for a while.
Qingyan couldn't help but her heart pounding at this moment. She knew that what she said today would determine her future image in the harem and how the three giants would view her.
She wanted to live a good and enjoyable life, but she didn't want to lose it right after the game started.
"Empress Huang, wait, I want to know too."
Just as Qingyan was about to speak, the sound of the Queen Mother came from outside the palace and came excitedly to prepare for a steaming "eating melon on the spot".
Qingyan:……
·
Things in the palace spread very quickly, not to mention Concubine Hesheli who has been a hot topic ever since she entered the palace.
If the harem had a hot search list, then Kangxi and the prince would be the top trending figures, while Qingyan would be a new traffic flower.
At this time, the traffic girl and the nanny of His Royal Highness, one of the most important figures, started to fuck. When Qingyan led the people out of the Chuxiu Palace, the eyeliners in the other palaces had already started to work hard for their master.
The message was delivered.
After noon, the foreign minister family, which has a relatively powerful family, also received news from the palace one after another.
Kangxi, who had just arrived at the Imperial Study Room to review the papers after going down to court, had a complex look on his face when he heard Liang Jiugong's report. He didn't know what to say for a moment.
When the Empress Dowager who was worshiping the Buddha in Cining Palace learned the news, she just felt that she had indeed made a mistake at the beginning. The second girl of the Hesheli family was the enhanced version of the young Empress Dowager, and there was no one else!
She actually didn't care that much about Qingyan beating the prince's nanny. Maybe it was because she was a mother and she didn't have a good impression of the role of nanny.
Isn’t it true that my good son was taught by these nannies not to be close to him?
When she was Emperor Taizong's concubine, she was not favored in Huang Taiji's harem. When she was young, she was also annoyed by these minions.
Compared to this superficial matter, she wanted to know the reason why Qingyan beat people behind their backs.
The Empress Dowager naturally received the news a little slower than the first two.
But after hearing the report from the palace palace concubine Hesheli, she kicked Nanny Gu and flew five meters away.
The Empress Dowager couldn't help but be extremely envious. She loved martial arts. When she was young, she had learned kung fu from her brothers' martial arts masters on the grassland for more than ten years. She considered herself to be the most famous martial arts beauty in the tribe!
He immediately asked his dowry nun, Aunt Wu Ren, to send her gold-wired long whip inlaid with rubies to Qingyan.
Aunt Wu Ren felt her head grow bigger when she looked at her master who had never acted according to common sense all his life.
While holding on to the empress dowager who turned around to rummage through the cabinets to find a whip, she sincerely advised her.
"Master, isn't this bad? As the Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty, how can you reward a little concubine with a whip? What will others think of this if word spreads about it?"
The Queen Mother was stunned and muttered: "Yes, yes, rewards should not be used, this is not good."
Aunt Wu Ren was a little pleased. The best thing about the master is that he can listen to what he said.
The Empress Dowager walked around in her palace and thought hard for a long time. Suddenly an idea flashed and she slammed her right fist on the palm of her left hand.
He said loudly: "It should be given as a gift! Just like the Chinese saying, a sword is given to a hero. You personally hold the box to the Chuxiu Palace and say to the concubine, "A good whip is given to the brave girl! This whip
The Ai family gave it to her."
Aunt Wu Ren wanted to cut off her own tongue. She shouldn't have told her master about it!
The master and the servant were arguing about whether to send whips, when they heard someone from the palace say that they saw Concubine Hesheli leading a large group of people towards Cining Palace with great fanfare.
The Empress Dowager left Aunt Wu Ren aside, asked the maid to do a simple make-up for her, and then ran towards Cining Palace.
·
"Qiqige, why did you come here?" The Queen Mother asked in surprise as she looked at the Queen Mother, who had bright eyes and was dressed in the casual clothes of a Mongolian lady.
"Mother Huang, you don't know that when I heard the news that Wu Ren reported to Hesheli and kicked the girl five meters away, I couldn't help but run over to see what was going on."
The Empress Dowager smiled and said honestly: "After all, you know, I was once a famous martial arts practitioner on our prairie."
The Empress Dowager: ...The Ai family doesn’t understand. When does being able to wield a whip count as practicing martial arts?
Aunt Wu Ren: ...I’m afraid the master is not a well-known martial arts loser on the grassland, right?
Qingyan: ...what a queen mother who eats melons online, she is late but she is here!
