Comprehensive Qing wear good luck

Chapter 227: Chronicles of Yongzheng's Harem 25

"Let's not talk about the medicine issue for now. Have you found the mastermind behind this?"

"I found out that it was Concubine Yu, and then I found out that it was Concubine Xi. Both are possible."

"Then what do you think, Madam? Is it Concubine Yu or Concubine Xi?"

Nanny Chen thought for a moment and said, "I think it's more likely that it was Concubine Xi."

Jiayue smiled. She had a clear understanding of Nanny Chen's abilities. She was able to find out all this in just one day. It could only be said that she was worthy of being brought up by the previous champion.

Thank you, Queen Mother!

"Thank you for your hard work in checking these things, Mammy."

"It is all my responsibility. I failed to notice that the Sixth Prince's wet nurse had been drugged. I am negligent in my duty. I would like to thank the Queen for giving me the opportunity to atone for my sins."

"How can I blame Nanny for this? I can only say that the person behind the scenes is really vicious! By the way, I heard that the Fifth Prince's one-year-old birthday ceremony did not go smoothly. It is said that when they were in the Qiandi, Concubine Xi and Concubine Yu took turns raising the children. I am very curious about what happened between Concubine Xi and Concubine Yu in the Qiandi."

Nanny Chen's eyes lit up and she understood what Jiayue meant.

"I do know a few people who have served in the residence."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Madam. I've seen the child of the Fifth Prince. He's a healthy child, but he can't sit still. Compared with the Fourth Prince, he seems a little naughty. Yupin is friendly to me. If the Fifth Prince is really being schemed, I can't let Yupin remain ignorant."

Nanny Chen followed suit and laughed: "Your Highness is absolutely right."

There is no mother who doesn't want her child to be smart and successful.

Concubine Yu and Concubine Xi gave birth to children one after the other, but the evaluations of their children were very different. One was smart, and the other was naughty. Would Concubine Yu really be willing to accept this?

Even if she was really willing, what if she knew that her son was being plotted against?

As for whether the Fifth Prince was really plotted against, Jiayue didn't know, but she had to investigate. However, the truth was not important, and she would make sure there was only one truth.

No matter what the relationship between Concubine Xi and Concubine Yu was in history, in today's harem, she is bound to make the two of them enemies.

In the evening, Yinzhen naturally came to Jiayue.

It can be seen that Yinzhen was very happy. He patted Jiayue's hand and said: "You gave me a good son. Hongzhao is very tall, and you are also very good."

"Your Majesty, you are drunk."

"I'm not drunk, I'm just happy. In the past, the Emperor only had my second brother's child in his heart. If the Emperor could see Hong Zhao, he would definitely be happy..."

Jiayue knew that he might be really drunk.

Yinzhen was an emperor, but he was not trained to be one in the beginning. In a way, Kangxi was like a mountain. Yinzhen longed to climb over the mountain and also longed to be recognized by the mountain.

But the mountain can't speak.

Those things that we once could not obtain, those longings... can only be muttered a few words when we are drunk.

Jiayue quickly coaxed the person to sleep.

The next day, when Jiayue woke up, Yinzhen had already left. Soon, Hongzhao and her rewards came down, and they were very valuable rewards.

"My lady, these were all sent by Eunuch Su himself!"

Jiayue looked at those things and her eyes fell on a Buddha statue.

"This white jade Guanyin is rare. Was it also sent by the emperor?"

Yinzhen knew that she had no interest in worshipping Buddha, so logically, this thing would not be sent to her.

"Your Majesty, this was sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

"It's not easy for me to worship Buddha. It's a pity to leave this Guanyin here. I still remember that Concubine Xi seems to have a special liking for burning incense and worshiping Buddha, right?"

"Your Majesty, remember it correctly. Your Majesty Xifei is very pious in worshipping Buddha."

"In this case, this Guanyin seems more suitable to be given to Concubine Xi. Yesterday was Hong Zhao's first birthday, and the one-year-old birthday ceremony went smoothly. The sisters in the palace all gave him valuable gifts. I have received a generous reward from the emperor today, so I should return a gift or two. Concubine Xi's gift is especially generous. This Guanyin does not need to be stored in the warehouse. Just register it and give it directly to Concubine Xi later. It can be regarded as my return gift."

"Yes, ma'am."

Next, Jiayue selected some rewards that would not go wrong and went to Concubine Nian first.

Of course, she naturally couldn't see Concubine Nian who was still in confinement after her baby's birth, so she stayed to return the gift.

Next, it was Concubine Qi's turn. The two didn't have much to say to each other. After a few sarcastic remarks to each other, Jiayue came out.

"Let's go, it's time to go to Concubine Xi."

"Yes, ma'am."

Concubine Xi didn't know Jiayue was coming, and was shocked when she heard the palace servant's report. In fact, she didn't sleep well last night.

She repeatedly asked her confidant whether she was sure that she had successfully drugged the Sixth Prince's wet nurse. In the end, the confidant herself was not sure.

She was exhausted. Not long after she woke up, she heard Jiayue coming. She was frightened because she had something to hide.

"Why is Concubine Jing here?"

"I just got the news that Concubine Jing is sending gifts back to all the ladies! She said she is thanking the Sixth Prince for the generous gifts, and she has already gone to Concubine Nian and Concubine Qi."

Concubine Xi frowned. She always felt that the visitor had bad intentions, but she was very confident in her arrangements.

Jiayue didn't mention the fact that the Sixth Prince was drugged, which must be because there was no evidence. Perhaps, she was testing him?

Concubine Xi thought so.

As long as she didn't act guilty, she would be fine.

"Please come in, Concubine Jing! Soak the sparrow tongue that the emperor gave you as a reward later."

"Yes, ma'am."

As soon as she came in, Jiayue smiled and bowed: "Hello, Empress Xi."

"Sister Jingpin, there is no need to be so polite. Please take a seat. Manju, serve tea to Jingpin."

"Thank you for the hospitality, madam."

"Sister, what you said is very distant, I told you to just call me sister."

"Sister Xi Fei taught me a lesson."

As we were talking, the tea was served. To be honest, the tea was okay, except that the brewing technique was not very good, after all, it was brewed in a hurry.

Jiayue took a sip and praised immediately: "Sister's tea is still the most delicious."

Concubine Xi smiled and said, "I don't have much of the sparrow tongue that the emperor gave me as a reward, so I can't give it to my younger sister."

"I came here today to return the gift to the Empress. Yesterday was Hong Zhao's first birthday, and the gifts given by the sisters were too generous. Today, I received the Emperor's reward, so I wanted to borrow flowers to offer to Buddha and return the gift. I can't eat and take things from Concubine Xi."

"Sister, you are so polite. The Sixth Prince is Hongli's younger brother. Those gifts were carefully selected by Hongli for his younger brother. They are thoughtful and not expensive."

"Fourth Prince, you are a good brother and a respectful brother. The Emperor will be pleased if he knows this. But you must accept the gift in return. You will definitely like it."

Concubine Xi looked curious: "I wonder what my sister gave me?"

"I heard that Sister Xifei likes to worship Buddha and Bodhisattva. She just got a jade Guanyin. I haven't set up a small Buddhist temple yet. The jade Guanyin hasn't been put into the warehouse yet. I thought of you and sent it to you."

As she spoke, Jiayue hurriedly called Baochun: "Quick, bring the white jade Guanyin over here for Sister Xifei to see."

Baochun hurriedly placed the Jade Guanyin on the table and then opened the pear wood box outside.

"Sister Xi Fei, take a look. Do you like this gift?"

Concubine Xi liked to worship Buddha. This white jade Guanyin is milky white all over, about as tall as an adult woman's outstretched arm, and the base is made of small-leaf red sandalwood.

Want to ask Concubine Xi if she likes it?

Of course she liked it. She liked to worship Buddha. At first, it was for peace of mind, and later she was able to find some tranquility from it, so she liked it more and more.

This Jade Guanyin really touched her heart.
