Chapter 1062 Kangxi's Harem, Consort Liang (99)
Chapter 1062 Kangxi's Harem, Consort Liang (99)
"I believe you."
The Empress Dowager smiled silently. "I'm not worried about anything else."
I also believe that Your Majesty will make proper arrangements.
Now, my only concern is for the princes who have left the capital.
I'm afraid I won't live to see them return to the capital.
"Your Majesty, they..."
Li Siqi moved her lips, unsure of what to say.
"I have a premonition that the princes are all well."
The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "They will come back sooner or later."
The person who made them leave was definitely not a bad person.
"I believe this, Consort Liang, do you think I'm right?"
"Yes, that's definitely right, that's what I'm hoping for too."
Li Siqi responded in agreement, "Your Majesty, I think Consort Wenxi is right."
No news is good news; they'll definitely return safely.
……
We chatted for about 15 minutes.
After taking the herbal medicine, the Empress Dowager quickly fell asleep.
Li Siqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyway, she really didn't want to chat with her.
Don't let her age fool you; she's quite shrewd.
More importantly, Li Siqi was afraid of attracting Kangxi's attention.
This whole thing with Old Deng happened pretty much in the last few years.
Therefore, Li Siqi really didn't want to provoke him, given his unpredictable temper.
Five days later.
The Empress Dowager passed away at the age of 77.
Everyone began to mourn.
Another month of turmoil ensued.
The concubines in the harem who had aged had practically shed a layer of skin.
One by one, they all became sickly and began to recuperate.
however.
Just as Kangxi had regained his spirits, he heard the news that the vassal state had been destroyed.
Ryukyu Kingdom, Monkey Kingdom, Korean Kingdom, Siam Kingdom, Japanese Kingdom...
They were all wiped out.
These countries have fallen into the hands of whoever they belong to.
Upon hearing this news, Emperor Kangxi was completely stunned.
Surprised, shocked, and incredulous.
Who exactly has this ability?
Sweeping away the influence of small countries, all the island nations united together were equivalent to half of the Qing Dynasty's territory.
How could he, as the emperor, allow someone else to control such a large territory?
After the initial shock came a surge of rage.
Former officials were subjected to relentless criticism; they were simply attacked with whatever came to mind.
The officials once again experienced just how terrifying Kangxi's sharp tongue could be.
It almost made these shameless officials commit suicide out of embarrassment.
Even the princes were not spared.
They all became useless snacks in his mouth.
"Terrible."
Little Pot shook his head. "I really want to know what Kangxi's expression would be if he knew those places were territories conquered by his son."
"Regardless of his expression."
Li Siqi sneered, "Kangxi will definitely be even more wary of these sons."
He might not let his sons come back.
After all, the return of a prince who held military power was nothing short of a provocation to him.
Kangxi naturally did not want his sons to return.
But he doesn't know yet.
"Master, actually, Kangxi's condition is not very good."
Little Pot chuckled, "If these princes were to return with their troops, they might be able to send Kangxi away sooner."
"Don't worry about it, let his fate decide."
Li Siqi knew that the six princes had almost recovered half of Southeast Asia.
In a few years, it wouldn't be surprising if they took over the entire Southeast Asia.
It was after Kangxi learned that it was his son.
Will they recall them?
……
After Kangxi took his anger out on his civil and military officials.
They began sending people to Southeast Asia to find out who dared to harass the Qing Dynasty's vassal states.
Not only Emperor Kangxi wanted to know.
The ministers also wanted to know.
The concubines in the harem also wanted to know.
Some people with wild imaginations began to suspect that the six missing princes were behind it.
Of course, while one may have doubts, no one would voice them without evidence.
Two years later.
The officials who went out to sea to search for the missing person have returned.
Not only did they return, but the deposed crown prince and the eighth prince also returned.
The news reached the capital.
The entire capital city was in an uproar.
Emperor Kangxi was stunned, thinking he had misheard.
The missing son has indeed been found.
The unification of Southeast Asia was truly his son's doing.
at this moment.
He was stunned; he couldn't believe it.
I feel like God is playing a joke on me.
It took him a long time to come to his senses.
After regaining his senses, he burst into laughter.
After the initial joy, he flew into a rage.
He used very harsh language in the Imperial Study.
None of the six princes were spared; it was as if these six princes had desecrated his ancestral graves.
Li Siqi found out.
I was so angry at this old man that I laughed.
"Little pot, don't be polite to him."
Li Siqi directly ordered, "Let him have his fun in his dreams."
Let's see how he dares to scold his son.
"No problem, Master, don't worry."
Little Pot happily accepted the task, "Troublesome things for him in my dreams is my specialty."
I'll definitely make sure he enjoys it.
then!
Kangxi began to suffer in his dreams again.
First, let's look at events from the late Qing Dynasty.
Then he was "ganged up" by his ancestors.
It will definitely make his nights very exciting.
When Kangxi woke up in the morning.
I felt angry, relieved, and also ashamed and uneasy.
They seemed to understand why they were being "ganged up on" by their ancestors.
Of course, we are also fortunate that our six sons are outstanding and have begun to conquer the countries in the seas.
At least it can ensure that these traitors are kept under the control of the Qing Dynasty.
I will not be betrayed again.
but……
At his advanced age, he was no longer able to keep up, and on top of that, he not only couldn't rest at night, but also had to endure abuse.
He already looked tired and his spirits were low, but he looked even older now.
a few days later.
Two princes appeared before him.
Kangxi looked at his son, who was both familiar and unfamiliar, and was speechless for a long time.
The Crown Prince and Yinzhi apologized to him.
He also told him what was happening outside.
After listening, Emperor Kangxi simply offered a few words of praise.
So they sent the person away.
Emperor Kangxi sat alone in his study for several hours.
I don’t know what to think.
Yinzhi did not return to his residence to rest.
Instead, he went to Changchun Palace to pay respects to his mother.
"My son, please pay my respects to your mother."
Yinzhi knelt before Li Siqi and kowtowed three times, saying, "Your unfilial son has returned to see his mother."
"Get up quickly!"
Seeing her son, who looked much older, Li Siqi smiled and said, "It's good that he came back safely."
"Were any of you injured while fighting outside?"
"It's normal to have some injuries."
Yinzhi stood up and looked at his mother, whose eyes also had fine lines, and felt a little uneasy. "My eldest brother, fifth brother, and seventh brother were more injured."
The son and the second brother were in the back and were not seriously injured.
Mother, your son is unfilial; he has not fulfilled his filial duties before you.
"You brat, you have your wife and son to take care of you."
Li Siqi smiled and said, "As long as you are all alright, I am relieved."
"Eniang!"
With tears welling up in his eyes, Yinzhi said, "Thank you so much, I am deeply grateful!"
"You brat, it's been over ten years since we last met, and you're starting to act all polite with me now?"
Li Siqi was both angry and amused. "Don't say things I don't like to hear here. Go back to your residence immediately."
Your wife, your son, and your daughter are waiting for you to come home.
We'll talk again when we get to the palace.
