Those few people seem to have become more honest now after being punished by him, but in fact, they have never given up. Huang Qiong was not surprised by what these people did when they took the opportunity. However, when Huang Qiong saw the name of the seventh prince on the secret fold, he fell into deep thought. And the biological mother of their seventh son was chosen by them, none other than Dong Qianhong.
Dong Qianhong has been very close to the current Concubine De since she was granted the title of concubine in the Jin Dynasty. It turns out that Dong Qianhong's adoptive father and De Fei's father were family friends, and they were very familiar with each other. Before Dong Qianhong married Li Jiedu, she was often summoned into the palace by Concubine De. After following him into the palace, the relationship between the two became closer and closer. Huang Qiong didn't care about this before.
He also knew about the previous experience at Li Jiedu's house. Dong Qianhong never felt safe in her heart. After entering Beijing, it was not like in Xijing, where he was by his side all day long. Moreover, the women in the palace felt that there was some risk of falling out of favor. In terms of age and coldness, she is not as good as Situ Huanshuang. In terms of grandeur and beauty, she is not as good as Duan Jin. In terms of gentleness and virtuousness, she is not as good as Yao.
When it comes to being young and beautiful, she is not as good as Lin Wanqing and other girls. When it comes to spending time with Huang Qiong, she is not as good as Wu Ziyu and Wu Ziyu. When Huang Qiong came to the throne, she didn't even compete for the fourth concubine. She was just a concubine like Lin Wanqing and the other girls. Since returning to Beijing, especially since Huang Qiong came to the throne, she has not shown special favor to her. Even when she was canonized, she was not even promoted in rank. She felt somewhat disappointed.
Then I thought about finding someone in the palace who could rely on or give advice besides Huang Qiong. And Huang Qiong knew that Dong Qianhong never spoke much when he was in the palace. But she herself is somewhat ambitious. She has always been aggrieved that she was not promoted to the concubine position that is still vacant after giving birth to her son. Although he said he didn't dare to do so openly, he had been secretly fighting against the two concubines.
She and Concubine De were already acquainted with each other. Concubine De had been in charge of the Sixth Palace for many years and had some foundation in the palace. And this former Concubine De, now Concubine De, probably still has no intention of giving up. Even though it was now hopeless, he still never gave up the idea of letting King Song take the throne. Huang Qiong somewhat admired this old woman, she was also somewhat resilient and would never give up until she achieved her goal.
Even with her mother's family, the power in the court has collapsed. Several brothers were either hung up or transferred to a casual position, and the remaining ones could no longer make any waves. But when the court was powerless, this woman reached into her harem. Dong Qianhong and Concubine De were old friends, so naturally they were the first to fall into Concubine De's sight.
Thanks to Concubine De's deliberate friendship, the relationship became closer again. Unlike Huang Qiong's other concubines, they avoided this virtuous concubine. Dong Qianhong and De Fei were very diligent in moving around. But Huang Qiong still never thought that she would do such a thing. She is also a woman from an official family. Does she really not know what this means?
And if Dong Qianhong has no connection at all with Concubine De and King Song. Is it possible for someone to have enough to eat and choose her to hang the curtain? The seventh prince was appointed to take over his throne. That guy, King Song, simply couldn't afford to start early without any benefit. Without a certain purpose, he would never work so hard. Could it be that there is some ambiguous relationship between the two people? Just like the King of Shu and Concubine Shen back then?
Somewhat upset, he knocked on the imperial case in front of him. Huang Qiong stood up. He seemed a little unconvinced that Dong Qianhong would have any abnormal relationship with King Song. For the arrogant Dong Qianhong, she may not be able to like the guy King Song. But if he didn’t have that relationship, even if he knew now that he was not the King of Song when he came to power, wouldn’t he really be able to find someone?
Turning his head to look at the folding paper on the table, Huang Qiong shook his head speechlessly. He had always thought that although Dong Qianhong was a bit more ambitious, he was also a smart person. I didn't expect that no matter how smart a woman is, she can be so stupid sometimes. She didn't even think about it. Was it because she had a good relationship with Concubine De? No wonder Duan Jin's evaluation of her is that she is smart but not wise.
Doesn't she know that even if those guys like King Song succeed, the best result is that her curtain as the Queen Mother is fake, and the throne inherited by her son is a puppet. Only those two people who actually hold the power, the so-called prince's governance is probably true. If those two guys really succeeded, for their mother and son, they would be nothing more than puppets going through the motions.
Although Dong Qianhong doesn't have great wisdom, he should still have some scheming and vision. She shouldn't have been unable to see the tricks of Concubine De and her son. But knowing all this, why did she get involved with those two people? Does she have other means to contain the mother and son? Or is she really getting carried away now and is desperate?
But now that the matter has come out, I still have to face it. I picked up my pen and wrote on the first booklet to lure the snake out of its hole and catch them all in one go. In the second letter from Situ Huanshuang, Huang Qiong thought about it and wrote that Situ Huanshuang and He Yao should arrange for personnel to keep an eye on Dong Qianhong and Concubine De. If there is any abnormality, he will be immediately locked up and imprisoned, and his son will be raised by Li on his behalf.
After sending the letter overnight, Huang Qiong sighed softly in her heart. He didn't expect that such a stupid, brainless woman would appear around him. Don't be afraid if you are ambitious, but you have to fight for it. As a concubine in the harem, having an affair with the prince, regardless of other matters, is not something that is generally taboo. Once this matter is verified, Dong Qianhong will not be able to do it even as a concubine.
I pinched the bridge of my nose a little tiredly, but I remembered Dong Qianhong, who hummed softly and docilely while serving me. The lively and fragrant look on his body made him unforgettable. It's a pity that such a charming woman got involved in something she shouldn't have been involved in. Even she is passive, but once she gets involved in this kind of thing, the outcome will not be good.
He should have warned her long ago to stay away from Princess De. That hateful old lady, Princess De, will be a disaster if she is left here. This woman has been instigating relationships in her harem. I had only been away from Beijing for a short time, and this old woman and her son were causing trouble there. Thinking of this, Huang Qiong suddenly remembered that Dong Qianhong's adoptive father had been the Privy Councilor for so many years.
Although he was sent to the execution ground by himself because of corruption. But after all, he has been working hard for the position of Privy Councilor for many years. There are still 3,000 nails in the broken ship, and my old subordinates who have been with them for many years still have some. Dong Qianhong's family members are now cultivating land on Qianzhong Road. The former privy envoy's relationships in the military were probably all controlled by Dong Qianhong alone. The King of Song Dynasty may have taken a fancy to this.
King Song has become much more honest on the surface in recent years. But in private, there are always little tricks. I have always wanted to put my hand into the Eight Imperial Forest Army. Although I didn't think highly of him, I didn't take this lightly either. However, he did not expect that the King of Song would actually join forces with the ambitious Dong Qianhong through Concubine De. Haha, I underestimated that guy.
The Queen Mother lowered the curtain and the Prince upheld the government. This suggestion was simply impossible. It was proposed by the King of Song who had the throne in his eyes. It should have been jointly discussed by Concubine De and Dong Qianhong. It's just that one is to delay time and prepare for building his own power. One was just a stopgap measure, thinking of using the power of King Song to put his son on the throne, and he even ascended to the position of Queen Mother.
Just taking advantage of each other. But of these two people, one dares to think about it, and the other dares to do it. Although I feel reluctant to let go of Dong Qianhong, if she really does such a thing, I will definitely not tolerate her. Originally, she was in Xijing, and she did whatever it took to gain his trust. In order to please yourself, as long as you like a woman, your thoughts will be sent to you.
Originally, I thought that Dong Qianhong was just a little too sensitive because her adoptive father's family was destroyed. In order to stay by his side, he was a little too flattering to himself. After arriving in the capital, she was not on good terms with He Yao and Duan Jin because of her own taste issues. But now it seems that her ambition is not that big. She also wanted to let her son inherit her throne so that she could become the queen mother.
Doesn't she know that although she is interested in the eldest son and the second son of the emperor, she has not thought about appointing a prince prematurely. Except that he is still young and has healthy bones. He now has eleven sons, and he will choose that one as his successor in the future. The prince is the foundation of the country and the heir apparent. How could you, Dong Qianhong, just think of establishing a son as your own?
Wanting to be promoted to the rank of concubine is not a big deal. If you educate your son well, everything may not be impossible. But she, Dong Qianhong, should never have done so. For her own ambition, she not only joined forces with some people she should not have contacted, but also tried to put her son on the throne. She even planned to serve as the empress dowager and listen to politics from behind the curtain. It seems that her ambition is really not that big.
It seems that she wants to be Wu Zetian. This woman, it seems that the child can no longer stay with her. Otherwise, no matter how good the child is, she will teach him bad things. Once this matter is verified, even if I am extremely reluctant to let go, I have to deal with it seriously. Otherwise, there will never be peace in his harem forever. If he doesn't act harshly, he will set a very bad example for other women in the palace.
After settling the matter, Huang Qiong seemed a little confused. After all, this is the first time something like this has happened in the harem since he took the throne. Originally, he had always thought that his ability to control the harem was pretty good. At least he is much stronger than the old man, but looking at it now, he is still a little too arrogant. We ignore that when people's status changes, their hearts will also change.
Especially those concubines who gave birth to sons can easily be encouraged to give birth to some undesirable ambitions. Even among the women around them, most of them no longer have a natal family, or even if they do have a natal family, they are extremely weak. But now it seems that even though some people no longer have their natal family, there are still people who are doing mischief in secret. It seems that it is time for the women in his harem to sort out their thoughts.
Although he didn't care about the three people joining forces, this matter ultimately caused some harm to Huang Qiong. Dong Qianhong has followed him since Ningxia Mansion, first to Xijing, and in the palace in the capital, she has been serving her wholeheartedly. Although no matter what the ending was, it was all caused by Dong Qianhong's own ambition, but this kind of thing still made Huang Qiong feel very sad.
He stood up again and put his hands behind his back, looking at the moon outside the window. He remembered that Dong Qianhong had always been gentle to him in the past few years, but Huang Qiong didn't say anything for a long time. The best outcome for Dong Qianhong this time is to be thrown into the cold palace. If things get too big, even death is possible. Even if he shows mercy, Dong Qianhong's outcome for the rest of his life can be seen.
