The Queen Mother was extremely angry, but there was nothing she could do to stop her. After all, the Emperor was already with me yesterday, and this morning she also decreed that she be made a good concubine. No matter how dissatisfied she was, she couldn't do it in front of everyone.
Faced with the rejection of the emperor's decision, he could only leave angrily.
Concubine Dong E, who had long since recovered from her pain, came to the emperor gently after the Queen Mother left, "Your Majesty, please do not be a concubine. If you treat the Queen Mother like this, it will be very harmful to your health if you make her angry."
Seeing that she was worried about the Queen Mother's health, she couldn't help but frown, "Mother doesn't know that my heart is all about my concubine, and she just wants me not to do anything embarrassing. But she doesn't know that I only want my concubine and don't want to get involved with anything else.
"
Concubine Dong E, who did not want to be seen as a disaster to the country and the people, gently persuaded: "It is my fault that the queen is so angry. Just one month after the death of the prince, I entered the palace and became the emperor's concubine. No one can accept it, let alone
Queen Mother, please forgive me, Your Majesty, and do not create any quarrel with my Queen because of my concubine."
Emperor Shunzhi nodded, "Don't worry, my beloved, I will handle this matter well and I will not embarrass you."
In the following month, Dong E's family changed from a virtuous concubine to an imperial concubine. She was promoted very quickly. However, due to the obstruction of the Queen Mother, she could only stay in the position of imperial concubine. However, all her configurations were in accordance with the empress's.
standards.
Seeing that all the emperor's thoughts were focused on her, the queen mother couldn't help but speak for the empress, "The emperor's actions are somewhat inappropriate. Even if you love her again, you must be equally devoted to her. This is your obligation as the emperor. In the past, you have done everything for her."
If you hurt your imperial brother, the Ai family will not care about you, but the queen was personally chosen by the Ai family, do you still want to destroy someone who was personally chosen by the Ai family for her sake?"
Ever since the emperor saw Concubine Dong E's abilities and knew that she had the same preferences as him, he wanted to make her his queen so that she could take care of his worries.
But he had this idea, but she never thought so, and instead rejected his proposal.
Facing the Queen Mother at this time, Emperor Shunzhi had no choice but to explain, "Mother, don't worry, the imperial concubine has no idea of replacing the Queen. She just wants to be by my side, and has never thought of replacing the Queen and her mother-in-law."
"Hmph!" The Queen Mother snorted coldly, "She has a good idea, but the Ai family has not passed away yet, so even if she wanted to, it would be impossible."
Hearing this, Emperor Shunzhi couldn't help but frowned, "There is no need to miss my mother so much. She is a gentle and kind person, and she will definitely not do anything to make her angry."
"I hope so!" The Queen Mother dropped a word and left angrily.
Concubine Dong E, who had been away for a long time, saw the Queen Mother coming out and quickly saluted, "I have met the Queen Mother."
Seeing her being so polite, the Queen Mother couldn't help but frowned, "Bomu Bogor treated you well at first, but I didn't expect that in just two months, you have already adapted to life in the harem. It seems that you are quite capable."
Faced with the Queen Mother's difficulties, Concubine Dong E did not retreat. Instead, she raised her head slightly and responded seriously: "I am a blessed person if I can be loved by the Emperor. I am not able to grow old together with the Prince. It is because our fate is too short and we cannot be together."
Stay together, but there are some things you shouldn't indulge in. There may be more things worthy of my concubine."
"You have thought clearly." The Queen Mother dropped these words with a cold face, ignored her, and led the people away directly.
After they left, Concubine Dong E hesitated for a moment and then walked into the house.
When Emperor Shunzhi saw her coming in, his gloomy expression instantly changed to a gentle expression, "My concubine is here. Is there any place you want to go today? I have nothing to do and I can go shopping with my concubine."
Concubine Dong E bowed obediently and looked at him tenderly, "Your Majesty, I heard that your Majesty had a very unpleasant quarrel with the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother over my affairs, so I came here to have a look. I hope that Your Majesty will not have any trouble with them because of this matter."
Disrespect."
Emperor Shunzhi was a little unhappy when he saw her saying this, "I didn't want to do that, I just saw that you are stronger than anyone else, and I didn't want you to be compared. Besides, they have no right to interfere with what I decided, dear concubine."
Don’t worry about it.”
Concubine Dong E did not come forward, but instead gave a respectful salute, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. What I say next may make Your Majesty feel bad. But as His beloved concubine, I must help His Majesty solve his problems."
, I hope the emperor can think about it seriously."
Emperor Shunzhi frowned helplessly, but did not interrupt her and allowed her to continue.
Seeing that he could patiently listen to her words, Concubine Dong E was overjoyed, but she showed a calm look, "Your Majesty, I have just entered the palace not long ago. Thanks to the Queen Mother and the Empress, she has taught me many things and allowed me to understand
How to deal with those things so that I can share the emperor's worries? If I treat the queen as the emperor wants at this time, wouldn't it be that I have betrayed my trust and hurt the queen? I don't want to be that kind of person, let alone let the emperor be betrayed by his ministers.
They say he is a foolish king."
"Be bold!"
When Emperor Shunzhi heard this, he slammed the table so hard that Concubine Dong E knelt down in fright.
But when he reacted, he quickly stepped forward to support her and looked at her apologetically, "My dear concubine, I'm not angry with you, please don't kneel down."
Concubine Dong E was well aware of his affection for her, but she didn't want him to waste unnecessary time on this matter. After all, as the emperor, he was the sky for the people. If the sky collapsed, the people would be worse off than dead.
She will feel guilty for this for the rest of her life.
Concubine Dong E took a deep breath and stood up slowly, "I know very well that the emperor has no intention of blaming me, but I still hope that the emperor will think twice before acting, and not let others think that the emperor is deceived by me, and then do something like this."
Bad decision.”
Seeing that she was still worried about this matter at this time, Emperor Shunzhi couldn't help but frowned and gently reassured her, "Don't worry, my beloved concubine, I will explain it clearly to the queen and will not let them misunderstand you. Just help me."
If you need to deal with other things, I can take care of them."
"Thank you Lord for your kindness." Concubine Dong E also knew that this was the best result. It would not only prevent the Queen Mother and the Emperor from hating her, but also please the Emperor. In the future, as long as she does her job well, she would not have to worry about being in the harem.
live safely in.
From then on, in addition to accompanying the emperor, Concubine Dong E spent more time in the Queen Mother's palace, chatting with her and easing the conflict between her and Emperor Shunzhi.
Even after the queen fell ill, she patiently stayed by her side to help her solve problems, and even took better care of her than the palace maids.
Since Concubine Dong E entered the palace, the emperor rarely entered the rooms of other concubines in the harem, and even the Queen's Palace. It would be a lie to say that he had no objection to Concubine Dong E. In fact, he was full of resentment in his heart.
