Chapter 158: Shunzhi's Deposed Empress Mengguqing 10
Shunzhi went to Kunning Palace with a resentful look on his face and asked Wu Liangfu to accompany him at night.
Xue Li didn't mind. She waited until Shunzhi relaxed his vigilance and the dragon energy was almost nourished, and then Xue Li continued to wait for an opportunity to act.
Then, I watched Shunzhi's frightened expression gradually change into "I knew it", and he even stopped resisting many times.
Three years passed like this.
It was not known whether Shunzhi was used to being bullied or he just enjoyed the process, but he played cat and mouse with Xueli for three years.
During this period, Dorgon gradually gave some power to Shunzhi.
Shunzhi also fought against Dorgon on equal terms.
The Queen Mother also gradually gave most of the palace power to Xue Li.
Xueli rejected some of them, not for any other reason, but because she remembered one sentence after hearing the last sentence: "If you can't decide, ask me to make the decision."
Therefore, whether she can make a decision depends on the decision of the Queen Mother.
Xue Li felt that she was really being treated as his son's servant. She didn't like being a puppet, which was thankless and tiring.
So the Queen Mother was somewhat hesitant and somewhat happy about Xue Li's refusal.
Xue Li didn't care about that. She was preparing to give Shunzhi medicine to make him give birth to a child.
Speaking of children, it is probably because of my fertility-prone physique.
Ba and Chen gave birth to a daughter.
The Empress Dowager was quite happy, as having a daughter proved that Shunzhi was in good health.
Every time this happened, Bumbutai would curse Dorgon in her heart.
The Dorgon brothers still had a firm grip on military and political affairs, occasionally giving Shunzhi some bait, which made Shunzhi dissatisfied but helpless.
Dorgon repeatedly refused on the grounds that he had no prince and lacked talent and conduct.
Mongolia sent several more noble ladies into the palace. Shunzhi was unhappy but had no choice. Then his close ministers proposed a beauty contest.
Shunzhi was overjoyed and went to see the empress dowager happily. Yes, on the one hand, he could win over the court officials, and on the other hand, he could find a soulmate.
Afraid that Xueli would stop him, he would try to please Bumbutai every day.
Xue Li took a look and thought, how can this be possible?
She liked seeing him afraid rather than happy.
Then Xue Li didn't say anything else. Every time she paid her respects to the Queen Mother, she gently stroked her belly, with sadness in her eyes.
I don’t know how much the Empress Dowager and Su Mala imagined.
Anyway, the Empress Dowager was keeping an eye on Shunzhi and asking him to give birth to a legitimate son, otherwise the selection would be postponed.
Shunzhi thought that he could use the fact that the Queen had no children as an excuse to make the Empress Dowager back down.
But both mother and son knew who had health problems. Bumbutai was always strong and spoke threatening words gently, making Shunzhi feel as depressed and airless as he had in the past ten years.
Many times, he really felt that the Empress Dowager was insatiable!
Shunzhi was furious but helpless.
I went to Kunning Palace cursing in my heart.
For three years, Xue Li would knock him out or tie him up and torture him every once in a while. No, she was absorbing the dragon energy from him.
Shunzhi woke up many times with red eyes and tears in his eyes, just like a boy who had lost his virginity.
Xueli was in a good mood and used her red whip to slightly lift his chin. "It is only natural for me to sleep with you!"
"How dare you!" Shunzhi was furious, but his body did not listen to his mouth.
There are always some people who are trying to make their presence felt.
Xue Li looked at him with a half-smile in her eyes. It was obvious that she liked him very much, but she had to pretend to be stubborn.
Shunzhi left in shame and anger.
Wu Liangfu, the servant, always lowered his head and looked disdainful every time he saw Xue Li. Several times when the master came to Kunning Palace, his face turned pale and his legs trembled the next day.
More than once he felt that the queen was a witch, but of course he didn't dare say that.
The Queen is not even afraid of the Emperor, let alone these little devils?
Shunzhi had also scolded Xue Li in front of the Empress Dowager.
The reason?
Luxurious, everything the queen eats is of the highest quality.
Xue Li rolled her eyes at him and said, "If you were wearing coarse linen, I would also be wearing rags! Are you saying that you are extravagant?!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the Empress Dowager and Shunzhi's faces changed.
Xueli looked at the mother and son coldly, and Bumbutai realized that Xueli didn't care much on weekdays, not that she had no temper.
She had mixed feelings, feeling both proud and unhappy.
The girls of Khorchin are proud of their strong character and don't like it when a daughter-in-law dares to challenge her mother-in-law or husband.
But what the queen said was right.
That belongs to the queen, not a princess.
Bumbutai didn't say anything and the atmosphere was a little tense. Just as Sumala was about to break the awkwardness, Shunzhi spoke again.
"But you haven't had any children for many years!"
Sydney's big eyes and long eyelashes linger in the place where his life was made.
Suddenly he laughed loudly: "There is an old saying among the Han people: A skilled cook cannot cook without rice!"
Shunzhi was shocked. He didn't expect that this rude woman would dare to say it so bluntly.
She bullied him so much, what right does she have to say Wu Mi?
"You, you, you are so presumptuous, otherwise how did the eldest princess and the second princess come about? It was obviously you——"
"Master, you can't cook without rice. You treat Kunning Palace as your study room and study hard all night long—"
"That's enough!" Bumbutai suddenly spoke harshly, looking at Xueli with dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Xue Li remained calm and glanced at Shunzhi with disdain.
Bumbutai seemed to understand and almost fainted.
He looked at Shunzhi with displeasure again.
Shunzhi wanted to say something, but he sat down angrily and kept his mouth shut.
"I have just obtained a treasure. Suma, take the Queen to get it!" The Queen Mother looked calm for a moment, as if the fierceness in her eyes just now was an illusion.
Xue Li nodded happily. She didn't want to see the mother and son yet.
Then she happily returned to the palace holding Yushu.
To the baby, Xue Li praised him generously.
Su Mala laughed when she heard this.
When I returned to the main hall, I found that the emperor had left.
Su Ma felt complicated. The emperor and the empress were not getting along, and the emperor was deliberately finding fault with the empress today.
As a result, the Queen did not just smile it off as usual today. She felt embarrassed when she saw the look in the Emperor's eyes.
In the hall, Bumbutai was staring at the Buddhist beads in a daze, not saying a word.
Su Mala stayed with him quietly.
She didn't know what her master said to the emperor, probably it was the same old thing.
Thus, Shunzhi and Xueli's first struggle ended in failure! Except for Xueli, both mother and son were unhappy.
Sydney is different. The barbecue pot is set up to celebrate Shunzhi's face that is about to spit blood~
Meiren looked at Xueli's happy expression and smiled gently and dotingly.
Because Guo Ren suddenly grew taller, he lived outside the palace and changed into men's clothes again to help Xue Li make money and train people.
Because of the incident, the Queen Mother even gave some warming wine.
As expected, Shunzhi came at night.
Shunzhi looked at Xueli with disgust in his eyes because of the quarrel during the day.
Xue Li returned the same look to him, but there was the Queen Mother above her, the Regent below her, and a savage woman in between.
Shunzhi felt like he was being driven crazy. He was unwilling to admit one thing: Xue Li's occasional insolence and the cat-and-mouse game between him and the Queen made him relax a lot.
However, snow pear represents Khorchin, Mongolia.
It was destined that they could not coexist peacefully. At this moment, he was glad that his offspring were few and far between because of the harm done by Dorgon.
Otherwise, why would the Manchus' legacy be passed on to foreigners?
