Chapter 330 Sky Curtain Extra 9
[At the same time, the previous dynasty was also making efforts, and some court officials reported this matter to Emperor Kangxi.]
[As an emperor, he should treat everyone equally.]
[In fact, the concubines and court officials said this to their superiors separately, which put a lot of pressure on Queen Yuanxi. The concubines are also very smart. With so many people coming together, they feel that the law cannot be enforced. In particular, Queen Yuanxi is young at the moment, and they all think that she is thin-skinned. No matter how powerful she is, she can't be that powerful. What's more, she is still the queen, so she must be very nervous. The concubines rely on the fact that young girls are thin-skinned and will compromise.]
[In the former court, Lao Kang is worthy of being Lao Kang. He directly confronted in the court: Whoever has a problem with the queen has a problem with me. The legs are on my body. Who of you can stop me! Not even the queen can stop me!]
[Yes, that’s right, Lao Kang is so domineering! He took all the conflicts on himself!]
[Old Kang had the courage to stand up, so Empress Yuanxi naturally did not hold back, nor did she stick to any rules.]
[So the two of them can be said to be running towards each other. Lao Kang gave Queen Yuanxi an absolute sense of security, and Queen Yuanxi was also willing to stand up.]
In every time and space, unmarried and married women have complicated emotions.
So did Kangxi.
[Continuing with the previous topic, after leaving the court, Lao Kang learned that the concubines had formed a group to force Queen Yuanxi. He thought about what the court officials had said today, and instantly realized that the concubines and court officials had joined forces.]
[Can Lao Kang tolerate this? Of course not. It’s okay for him to suffer a little injustice, but when he thinks of his wife being wronged, he immediately quits! He immediately sends someone to find out who made his wife suffer.]
[On that day, many concubines who went to Jingren Palace together, nominally to pay respects but actually to force the emperor, all received an unprecedented blow!]
All the concubines in all time and space clenched their palms at once.
[Historical records show that on the seventh day of the twelfth month of the twenty-second year of Kangxi’s reign, the harem experienced an unprecedented demotion! Anyone who participated in forcing the queen was not spared!]
[All downgrades and deductions are one-stop services! ]
[The initiators, the four concubines Hui, Yi, De and Rong, were stripped of their titles and demoted to concubines, and their salaries were cut off for three years.]
[The host guessed that if they didn't have princes, it wouldn't be so simple. Of course, being demoted would be a devastating blow to the concubines, after all, Lao Kang was so stingy in the early promotions.]
The four concubines of Huiyi, Derong and Rong: "!!!"
Although she knew that what Tianmu said had nothing to do with them, her face still turned pale when she heard the news.
I climbed up with great difficulty, and now it's gone.
[They were demoted, and no one's pleas were of any use.]
[Later, the former Concubine Yi, who was demoted to a concubine, Guo, no one knew what happened to her, but the next day, she was demoted to the rank of a noble lady!]
Concubine Yi: "!!!"
"how come!"
At a certain time and space, Concubine Yi screamed in disbelief, her eyes went dark, and she completely fainted.
"Sister Yifei!"
[This is unbelievable, not to mention that Guo Luoluo has the support of the Empress Dowager behind her. She is so miserable, so you can imagine that others are even more scared.]
[These imperial concubines have no idea what's going on.]
[This is just the appetizer.]
All the concubines, what...what does this mean!
[In the previous dynasty, at this time, Prince Yu Fuquan found out that someone was privately selling imperial meals outside the palace, and was making a lot of money in the name of imperial meals.]
In all time and space, Baoyi's heart instantly rose when he heard this.
[One table of imperial meal costs one hundred taels of silver! You know, one hundred taels of silver is enough for ordinary people to live well for more than ten years!]
[It is obvious why the imperial meal was leaked. It is obvious that the palace eunuchs and the people outside the palace colluded with each other.]
[As the imperial family's domestic slaves, the Baoyi served the imperial family for generations, including almost every aspect. The imperial family also trusted the Baoyi. By the time of Emperor Kangxi, the Baoyi had initially established a stable power, and they were indeed very bold. After all, among the concubines, the four concubines were Baoyi, and they all had children. Because they had someone to support them, they were no longer as cautious as before.]
In every time and space, Kangxi's expression was unpredictable.
[Today we can cooperate with the outside world to sell imperial food, tomorrow we can poison the emperor.]
With a "thump", everyone knelt on the ground, cold sweat breaking out on their foreheads.
[Speaking of the outside world they colluded with, the initiator was none other than Longkodo, the younger brother of the former Imperial Concubine Tong. Longkodo was extremely courageous. His own sister had been demoted and confined to the palace for life, yet he still dared to commit suicide.]
[It is said that within two months of opening the wine shop, Long Keduo had already made over ten thousand taels of silver!]
Everyone was shocked and subconsciously looked at Longkodo.
The scene of deposing the crown prince.
Kangxi looked at him with extremely cold eyes.
Longkodo kowtowed immediately, his back soaked with sweat: "Your Majesty, I dare not!"
[After this incident, Old Kang thoroughly investigated the palace and found more incredible things. The Baoyi family, the servants that he had ignored in the past, had already gained a lot of influence in the palace. They even secretly embezzled tens of thousands of gold and silver in the palace.]
[If we let them go on like this, they will be able to conceal anything. Who knows what the consequences will be if these eunuchs have the intention to murder their master...]
"How outrageous!" Kangxi was furious.
Throughout the ages, all the bondservant families trembled and kowtowed.
Kangxi's face turned cold, and he uttered two words in a cold voice, and ordered: "Go and check."
After he finished speaking, all the guards trembled even more.
Kangxi watched coldly and actually saw through their guilty conscience. He understood something in an instant.
He couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He really hadn't noticed Bao Yi before, but once he noticed it, he was shocked.
My food, clothing, housing and transportation were all taken care of by my servants. If they really had the idea...
[From this day on, the palace ushered in a thorough purge. As the four concubines who were born as bondservants, they were reduced to their minions.]
The three concubines Hui Derong, who were not dizzy, also began to feel dizzy.
If the Baoyi are eliminated, then their power will be...
In the palace, everyone is blind!
[The harem was completely quiet because of this. The concubines no longer dared to provoke Empress Yuanxi. After all, if she pulled out a carrot, she would bring out the mud. And with Emperor Kangxi's wrath, how could they dare to do so?]
[After the four concubines lost their power in the palace, Empress Yuanxi had no one to rely on. What should she do?]
Tianmu paused: [Empress Yuanxi suddenly had an idea and started the system of female officials in the harem. No one knew that the emergence of this system of female officials was a ray of hope for both the maids and concubines in the harem.]
[Did Lao Kang object? Of course not. He supported his wife in whatever she wanted to do. Some even guessed that Lao Kang even helped his wife with the exam questions for the female officials.]
Everyone in the former dynasty looked at Kangxi.
Can't believe it.
His Majesty would...
[If a palace maid passes the exam and successfully advances to a higher position, even if she is not a concubine, she still has the power to manage affairs.]
[After the palace maid took the position, the concubines naturally couldn't sit still, but some still waited and watched, fearing that they would be punished if they offended the queen. But no, Queen Yuanxi never made things difficult for them from beginning to end. In the end, the concubines who took the lead in standing up to take the exam were Concubine Hesheli, who was still waiting for the year, and Concubine Ma, who was demoted.]
[Hesheli, a concubine, entered the palace at the age of ten and had never seen Emperor Kangxi. Her path to advancement was all related to Empress Yuanxi. In the end, she became one of the famous female officials in the Qing harem, managing the harem for Empress Yuanxi. Although she was only a female official in the harem, she marked the beginning of the rise of feminist thought.]
Hesheli Concubine/Pingpin: "!!!"
I was suddenly startled and realized it was me!
[By the way, the promotion of concubines was almost always ordered by Empress Yuanxi. Kangxi didn’t care and gave it all to his wife.]
Concubine: "!!!"
Shocked, shocked!
-
The period of Huang Taiji.
A female official of the Qing Dynasty? Sure enough, she was his descendant.
Huang Taiji understood this, but his descendants seemed to be really love-minded.
-
[Empress Wonhee is a very generous queen.]
[The concubines in the harem no longer have Kangxi, but they have the Queen. The Queen is much easier to serve than Kangxi. As long as they do practical things, they can be promoted.]
In the 31st year of Kangxi's reign, the young Kangxi stroked his fingers and looked at the sky, his eyes slightly deep. This Empress Yuanxi, whom he had never met, seemed to be a little special...
The young Kangxi sighed inwardly, and he actually understood that "Kangxi" a little.
"Liang Jiugong, go check. I want information about this Empress Yuanxi."
"Yes." Liang Jiugong bowed.
The eyes of the other princes moved slightly.
