Chapter 283 Kangxi Concubine Ping 20
Chapter 283 Kangxi Concubine Ping 20
In a blink of an eye, several months passed.
Chunying came in hurriedly: "Your Majesty, the emperor has issued an edict to confer the title of Concubine Liang on Concubine Liang."
Wu Lingzhu said calmly: "It's not the position of concubine?"
It seems that Kangxi is not willing to invest money.
Chunying couldn't help but get anxious: "My queen, people outside are saying that the emperor wants to use the Eighth Prince, otherwise he wouldn't have been promoted to a noble lady in such a short time. We don't get along with the Eighth Prince!"
"Don't worry. Even if the crown prince is deposed, the new crown prince will not be the Eighth Prince. It's just a verbal appointment. Why are you in such a hurry? Look at Concubine Hui. She is like an old monk sitting still. That's how she is stable!"
Although Wu Lingzhu did not get along with Concubine Hui, he also admired her mentality. After struggling for most of her life and losing hope, she was sad for once, and her mentality returned to normal.
It can only be said that those who can make a name for themselves in Kangxi’s harem are not ordinary people.
Chunying: "I am the one making a fuss."
"We have only just begun. We will see what is to come."
Sometimes Wu Lingzhu wondered, did the Eighth Prince really not know what was going on?
Actually, not necessarily, but he has no choice.
Wu Lingzhu murmured: "The fire is boiling, the flowers are blooming!"
Concubine Hui, watching the people coming and going outside, snorted coldly: "The villain is getting ahead!"
"Your Majesty, you are from the Palace of Heavenly Purity after all, please give me some respect."
"No one heard me talking, so what's there to be afraid of? I've been Consort Hui for so many years, and the Emperor won't say anything to me just because she treats Consort Liang badly. Look at what she can do as a concubine who didn't have a canonization ceremony. By the way, how did I hear that the Eighth Prince and the Eighth Lady were having a big banquet outside?"
"That's what happened."
Concubine Hui was amused: "You are so short-sighted and have no future! The less you have, the more you show off."
It was just a coincidence that the Eighth Prince hosted a banquet.
The eldest prince was completely out, the crown prince was seriously injured, Kangxi's attitude was unclear, and the eighth prince emerged as a rising star.
Because the Eighth Prince was easy to talk to and seemed to have a weak temper, a group of court officials who wanted to emulate Song Renzong's style of ruling the country with ease began to pay homage to the Eighth Prince. They had not had the opportunity before, but Concubine Liang was promoted to Concubine Liang, so this was a good opportunity to give them gifts.
Everyone came. The Eighth Prince was always hospitable to outsiders. Although he had no plans to host a banquet, since everyone had come, he had no intention of sending them away.
The mansion couldn't accommodate so many people at once, so they were all arranged to stay in the Ninth Prince's restaurant, which was booked out for the entire place, and he didn't have to pay. People came and went, and the Eighth Prince enjoyed it very much.
For three consecutive days, the Ninth Prince's restaurant was almost a buffet.
In Yuqing Palace, after the Crown Prince learned about the Eighth Prince, he couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahaha, Eighth Prince, what a thing!"
The prince's smile came from the bottom of his heart. He was in a difficult predicament at the moment, but when he saw the Eighth Prince pushed forward by Kangxi, he was amused.
This level is not acceptable!
Kangxi was angry. He meant to promote the Eighth Prince, but he didn't want to let you climb up by chance.
"Your Majesty, calm down, Your Majesty."
"How can I calm down? I don't have such a narrow-minded son."
In this life, the fighting between Kangxi's sons was rather childish, because Wu Lingzhu intervened and added fuel to the flames, their fight was brought forward and their methods became even more crude.
In short, you're getting into situations that you shouldn't be in before your rank has even risen. In the eyes of discerning audiences, as soon as you make a move, they'll know that your level is not good.
The organizer Kangxi was very dissatisfied.
"Empress Liangpin's place..."
"What Liangpin? You raised the Eighth Prince like this. I've given her face. Take down Liangpin's green card."
When concubines were promoted, as long as it was not a collective promotion, Kangxi would usually give them face and allow them to stay for a few more days.
Originally, Kangxi planned to go to Concubine Liang, but this fact really made him angry.
In this regard, Wu Lingzhu is very satisfied with the current situation.
The fight between nine dragons for the throne has turned into a fight between eight dragons. This drama is getting more and more interesting.
Liang Jiugong: "I will ask the servants from the Jingshifang to go back now."
Kangxi: "Wait, I will go to Chuxiu Palace tonight."
Liang Jiugong was stunned for a moment, then said: "Yes, I will arrange it right away."
Wu Lingzhu was a little surprised when she saw Kangxi in Chuxiu Palace: "Why did the emperor come to my place today?"
Kangxi was in a bad mood, and his tone was not very good: "Why, I can't come."
Wu Lingzhu smiled apologetically: "How could that be possible! I wish the emperor would come every day. Today is not a good day for Liangpin. I just didn't expect the emperor to come to my place."
"You dare to say anything."
"I know that the emperor loves me and will not blame me. I am the one who has no scruples. It is all the emperor's fault. It is the emperor who has spoiled me like this."
These were nice words to say, and Kangxi felt much better.
His mood improved, and with Wu Lingzhu and the prince completely separated, in Kangxi's heart, she was his own person. Even though she had a son, Yinju was still young!
Kangxi never took Yinju into account and only doted on him as his youngest son.
Kangxi began to speak his mind: "My beloved, how come no one understands my painstaking efforts?"
Wu Lingzhu couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth when he heard this. What you did can't be said to be painstaking. It can only be said that you have ulterior motives. However, Kangxi was still there, and he managed to hold it back thanks to his years of experience.
"Your Majesty, the people involved are the most confused. Others are not as well-intentioned as you are. You should always give those who are not smart some time to accept it. If that doesn't work, Your Majesty should be considerate of others' stupidity and arrange for someone to give some pointers."
Kangxi's eyes lit up immediately.
Yes, the Eighth Prince is dull, he just needs someone to guide him.
After all, he is just a whetstone, and I can arrange and control it as I please.
Kangxi finally understood everything, and his mood suddenly changed: "My beloved, it has to be you. You are my confidant."
Wu Lingzhu pretended to be confused: "What did I say? How did I become a flower that can understand language?"
“You don’t need to understand, this is good enough.”
Wu Lingzhu was in a good mood, looking like he really didn't understand and didn't want to understand.
The next day, the Qianqing Palace sent over the reward. Chunying looked at it and couldn't help but sigh: "It's not a festival, but the emperor is willing to spend money on it. This reward is probably no less than what Liangpin got when she was promoted. If Liangpin knew about it, I'm afraid she wouldn't be in a good mood."
Wu Lingzhu looked at those jewels, all of which were glittering and exquisite. Kangxi was indeed very good to the people he liked.
In fact, his sons have inherited some of his temperament. They like things they like very much, and dislike things they don't like very much.
The only Eighth Prince looks weird because he suppresses his nature too much.
It is said that the Fourth Prince was over-corrected by Kangxi's words "moody", and began to be patient and tolerant, but he was still moody. The Eighth Prince has been the same since he was young, always smiling.
It looks good for a while, but looking at it every day, I feel tired for him.
