Chapter 160: Shunzhi's Deposed Empress Mengguqing 12
Xue Li ignored the confrontation between mother and son, and Chao Lu took people to guard the child.
Meiren guards her.
Dorgon learned the news from the palace and continued to add fuel to the fire.
Xue Li named her child Zheng Xi, which means good governance and prosperity.
When the Emperor and the Empress Dowager found out, they didn't say anything.
Su Mala came to see the child every day, and it took the empress dowager more than a month to recover her energy.
It was at the full-moon banquet that the grandparents and grandchildren met.
No matter how unhappy Shunzhi was, he would not slap himself in the face in public. It was also the first time he saw his eldest son.
Sure enough, he still couldn't like it.
He just thought that he hated the queen, so he took his anger out on the child.
Xue Li ignored him. The child's biological father was looking after the little guy every day. What did her family of three have to do with him?
The Queen Mother was different. She became very energetic when she saw the child.
Just ignore Shunzhi's occasional tantrums and protests.
Of course, he danced in front of Xueli, and Xueli looked at him with a sinister smile.
Shunzhi simply looked away.
He even became more friendly to Xue Li and came to see Zheng Xi every ten days or half a month.
Xue Li was a little confused, and it was only later that she saw in her spirit that Wu Liangfu was making witty remarks to Shunzhi.
No matter how unhappy Shunzhi was, his heart softened when he saw the baby's pure eyes.
Because he was his first son, he was secretly happy in his heart.
But because of Mongolia and his mother, he has complicated emotions towards the child.
Xue Li thought he was just idle!
It's not that I'm idle, I'm idle to the point of being sad and depressed.
Shunzhi was in a depressed mood. At a banquet, he saw an officer's family member, who was frail and had quick wits.
Finally, Shunzhi shook people off and went alone to enjoy the fresh air, when he ran into the woman reciting poetry to the moon.
Shunzhi was somewhat surprised, and then he recited the second half of the poem.
The two people interact with each other and appreciate each other.
Against the backdrop of the hazy moonlight, the atmosphere gradually becomes ambiguous!
After communicating, I found out that the other party was Dong E, a married woman.
Shunzhi became even more excited, feeling a kind of immoral pleasure, or perhaps because the moonlight was so beautiful. They made appointments to write letters to each other, talk about life and ideals, and look at the stars and the moon.
After that, Shunzhi was no longer so sullen towards Xue Li, and he became much more sensible towards the Empress Dowager.
Everyone thought that Shunzhi had grown up.
In fact, it was after more than half a year of correspondence that Shunzhi was influenced by Dong E and became a better man!
In August of the same year, Dong E's husband died unexpectedly!
Dong E returned to her parents' home. On August 25, Dong E entered the palace and was named Consort Xian!
Xueli remained calm.
The Empress Dowager was furious, as Dorgon enthusiastically spread the story of the Emperor forcing his wife to death and forcing an officer to death.
Before Shunzhi had time to feel disgusted with Xueli, he was so angry at the people's abuse that he got busy.
When Xue Li heard this, she started writing "Two or Three Things About the Emperor and My Wife", which was a mixture of true and false, and Xue Li was very proud of herself.
She arranged for people to start printing and selling in large quantities. If she didn't take advantage of this wave of popularity, she would be short-sighted.
Shunzhi had arranged things and was being affectionate with Concubine Xian when he suddenly learned about a hot topic outside the palace!
I was so angry that I almost passed out!
Continue to be busy arranging people to deal with it.
However, the first wave of people who printed and sold books went to the south, and the news that spread was that the emperor killed them in order to silence them.
As a result, the matter became more and more suspicious, and even several ministers were involved.
Yes, the second wave was the propaganda launched by Dorgon and those people like Oboi.
The purpose is to disgust them!
Not to mention, even if Aobai knew that the matter had nothing to do with him, but the looks in his colleagues' eyes and the rumors that were half true and half false.
It still made him feel sick.
The Empress Dowager thought that Shunzhi would blame the matter on Dong E, but Shunzhi only saw her less often and continued to favor Dong E.
The Empress Dowager even received news that Shunzhi wanted to promote Dong E.
The Queen Mother was so angry after all this that she only felt better after seeing Jung Hee.
Of course, it was also because of his health problems that he handed over the palace affairs to Xue Li, at least on the surface.
The main purpose is to hope that Xue Li will come forward to suppress Dong E or even kill Dong E.
Xue Li looked a little confused, but still nodded.
Because of the power in hand.
One day, all the beauties in the harem came to pay their respects to Xueli. At that time, not to mention the Mongolian concubines, even the Manchu and Han concubines had not seen the emperor for a long time.
It was only after reading Tongshi that I realized that Shunzhi almost exclusively favored Dong E at this time.
After reading it, Xue Li brought people to pay respects to the Queen Mother.
"Empress Dowager, many of my sisters have come from far away, and many of them have never seen your Majesty. I think it would be better to follow the example of the late emperor and marry off some of my sisters or send them back to their parents' homes, rather than die of old age in the palace!"
Xue Li stared at the Queen Mother seriously.
The Queen Mother was somewhat surprised and incredulous. She didn't expect that this would be the first thing Xue Li did after taking charge of the palace.
When the Queen Mother took one look, the eyes of several Mongolian concubines lit up instantly.
Some even knelt down in a hurry.
"Thank you very much, Queen, for your consideration. If I can return to the grassland, I will have hope in my heart!"
A concubine of the Borjigit clan spoke with tears in her eyes.
Xue Li couldn't remember her name because there were several Borjigits in the palace.
"I beg my aunt to grant my wish! Wuuwuwu~"
"I am willing to obey the Queen's order!"
"Please grant me your blessing, Queen Mother!"
"Please grant me your blessing, Queen Mother!"
"Please grant me your blessing, Queen Mother!"
"..."
The empress dowager looked at the concubines kneeling on the ground. It would have been fine if there were only Mongolian women, but there were also quite a few Manchu ladies.
The Queen Mother glanced at Xue Li, and Xue Li looked at them with compassion in her eyes.
The Queen Mother glanced at Su Mala again, and Su Mala's eyes turned red.
"Okay, you guys go down. Let's make other arrangements after this matter is settled!" Xue Li asked them to leave. She could wait for the mother and son to leave and then let them go.
But she wanted those tribes to be grateful to her even more!
These are all her son's future power.
"Yes, slave, please resign!"
Everyone said in unison, and after retreating, Xue Li looked at the Queen Mother.
"Because of the eldest son, the emperor has issued a general amnesty, allowing some concubines and palace maids to get married and leave the palace! Madam, what do you think of this proposal?"
The Queen Mother paused as she was twisting the beads. It turned out to be a good idea.
It’s just a little late!
The eldest son has been born for more than half a year.
However, at this moment, only this news can suppress the bad reputation. In this way, those books will be banned slowly and the news will pass.
The Queen Mother nodded slightly and agreed.
"You have to talk to the emperor yourself!"
"it is good!"
Xueli curled her lips and helped Naren leave.
The Queen Mother looked at Xueli's back subtly: "In the past, I thought she lived a simple life. Later, I felt that she was really simple-minded, and her likes and dislikes were written on her face. Fortunately, she is tolerant and has a good stomach! Now, I feel that she has made some progress in these few years."
Su Mala nodded slightly and fell into deep thought.
"Su Ma, tell me, does she simply feel sorry for those concubines, or does she have bigger ambitions?" After a while, the empress dowager suddenly spoke, and her words were thought-provoking.
