The Bewitching Master of the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 162: Shunzhi's Deposed Empress Mengguqing 14

[Blessed by heaven, the emperor issued an edict:

I have inherited the order of heaven and have been given the mandate to rule the country. I have chosen a successor to consolidate the foundation of the country and to appease the people. Prince Zhengxi is of noble birth. He is both the legitimate son and the eldest son. He is gifted and intelligent, and has both virtue and morality. He has been extremely intelligent since childhood, and is eager to learn. He respects his superiors and loves his subordinates, and has the qualities of a ruler. I have observed his actions and his aspirations, and I firmly believe that he can inherit the throne and glorify the ancestral legacy.

Today, I, in accordance with the laws of our ancestors and the way of heaven and earth, have specially appointed Prince Zhengxi as the Crown Prince to carry on my legacy and bring peace to the people. From the day of his appointment, Prince Zhengxi should diligently cultivate virtue, abide by filial piety, and respect the ancestral temple to live up to my expectations. All civil and military officials, both inside and outside the country, should assist and guide me wholeheartedly and join me in this great cause. Do not disappoint me.

This decree has been issued, and everyone should obey it.

December 12, 1656, the 13th year of the Shunzhi reign

Shunzhi

Wu Liangfu read out the imperial edict at the court meeting, and Dorgon looked at the emperor in surprise.

Shunzhi's eyes were filled with determination to win.

Dorgon smiled and praised, "Your Majesty has the style of your father!"

He then handed over all government affairs, including military affairs, with confidence.

Except for the Bordered White Banner and the Plain White Banner which were controlled by their brothers.

None of the ministers of Shunzhi's lineage, including Shunzhi himself, expected that happiness would come so suddenly.

Shunzhi was almost moved to tears, and even after being tormented by Dorgon so many times, he once thought that Dorgon was deliberately training him.

Every time he thought of this, Shunzhi wanted to slap himself twice.

Have you forgotten about being bullied?

He wanted to make trouble for Dorgon, but Dorgon's power was quietly spreading everywhere, and he had to rearrange his people to take over.

In this way, it seemed that Shunzhi finally took control of the court.

Dorgon began to retreat behind the scenes.

Shunzhi thought that his good days had come after Dorgon's death.

It turned out that the ministers who followed him took advantage of his youth and inexperience and caused trouble for him.

Instead of handling a matter simply, he has to go through a lot of trouble to tell him that the department cannot do without him.

Only then did Shunzhi understand what it meant to be a king.

It turns out that regency is not just the influence of the Prince Regent alone.

These court officials wished that he was weak and could be bullied.

Shunzhi was busy fighting with his ministers every day, and the romantic affairs that Dong E had once had also made him lose interest.

Maybe it’s because of the fear of losing, or maybe it’s because the less you have, the more you want to show off.

When Dong E met Xue Li by chance in the imperial garden, he showed off his love for her in various ways.

Xue Li didn't mind, but she looked at Dong E's vague sense of superiority.

Xueli smiled suddenly, and it was like a hundred flowers blooming in an instant.

Then someone was arranged to call Shunzhi to have lunch.

Shunzhi thought that he could remain calm no matter what happened.

Sydney prepared roasted lamb legs, tomahawk steaks, various barbecues, and hot pot.

Shunzhi's appetite was whetted, and he even asked Xue Li to copy the prescription for him.

Xueli didn't understand.

She was thinking about how to have sex in broad daylight.

There's nothing we can do about it. If we say we want to have dinner, he may not come.

After they finished their meal, they took a walk, played with the children, and walked the dog.

Perhaps it was because of the rare peaceful times that Shunzhi was in a good mood.

Xueli was even happier.

Seeing the look Naren gave her, Xueli took Shunzhi back to the main hall.

Shunzhi thought something was wrong, but Xueli tied him tightly to a chair.

Shunzhi's expression changed in an instant: "What are you doing?"

"What do you think?" Xue Li took off her pants, shoes and socks bit by bit.

Even though it was covered tightly, Shunzhi still found it fascinating.

If you don't look at the clothes on the ground, Xue Li looks neatly dressed.

Shi Shiran took off his pants.

Shunzhi blushed and said, "What are you doing in broad daylight?"

"I've tried it, and I want to try it too! How's that?" Xue Li's breath was as sweet as orchid.

Shunzhi turned his head away from her and said, "How dare you!"

"Hmmmm~"

"Well, how about we do it at night..." Shunzhi looked shy and wanted to say something.

"No, I'm afraid the emperor doesn't have the strength to use it! Your Majesty, you must try hard. If it doesn't work, I don't mind using Concubine Xian as a scapegoat. After all, she squeezed the emperor dry. She told me so herself. I have to test it. If it's useless..."

Xueli smiled sinisterly, and Shunzhi's eyes turned red with anger.

"You're talking nonsense!"

Xue Li ignored him, covered his face with the gauze and started "plundering".

Xueli was annoyed by Shunzhi's shouting and covered his mouth, and then an hour passed.

Xue Li was sitting by the window drinking tea, dressed neatly, and Shunzhi's legs were so weak that he almost couldn't stand up.

When she left, she said with tears in her eyes, "Bumuba, you just wait for me! Humph!"

Then he left angrily.

Xue Li leaned over leisurely, meeting Mei Ren's heavy eyes.

"Are you angry?" Xue Li was thinking, she had to learn how Kangxi handled things.

"Can you coax a servant?" Meiren looked at her steadily.

"No!" After Xueli said that, Meiren lowered her eyebrows for a moment, with tears in her eyes.

"I won't coax you. I'm telling you the truth, Shunzhi. They're not even as good as one of your fingers. You know that! They won't disturb us if they're busy."

Xue Li looked at him and spoke seriously.

Meiren burst into tears of joy and hugged her tightly.

Xue Li leaned lazily in his arms, and the dragon energy made her feel the comfort coming from her soul.

She probably sucked too hard this time, and Shunzhi was so angry that he cried.

Xueli was squinting her eyes, and Meiren kissed her. Xueli hugged his neck with both hands.

Meiren hugged her and ravaged her lips.

While the love was going on here, Shunzhi returned to Chengqian Palace and refused the request of Concubine Xian to see him.

He did not vent his anger when the rumors outside the palace were widely circulated.

He also protected the queen when she quarreled with her.

But today, he just didn't want to see her.

"Wu Liangfu, go check what happened in the Imperial Garden this morning?"

"Whoo!"

Shunzhi just wanted to confirm it again, even though he knew that Xue Li would never lie.

He drank the tonic and cursed Xueli, "dissolute", "barbaric", "rude", "audacious", "shameless", "seductive", "undignified"...

But in the end, no excuse was found to punish Xue Li.

The Queen Mother did get the news and summoned Xue Li the next day.

The empress dowager played with her grandson with a loving smile. After a while, she asked someone to take the child to feed him.

The Queen Mother looked at Xue Li and her face suddenly darkened.

Xue Li was very calm and drank her milk tea bit by bit.

"You are the queen, you should be a role model for all women in the world!" The queen mother put down the teacup.

She wanted her to apologize herself, but Xueli sat upright and leaned back in the chair after the servants left.

Her actions tell you how close she is to her aunt.

"I want to have another child!" Xue Li found an excuse. She would never have too many grandchildren.

Besides, with Bumbutai's control over the harem, she didn't believe that the news could get out.

Although she didn't deliberately hide it.

"..." The Queen Mother suddenly paused. She knew it, but she couldn't indulge in lust in broad daylight.
