Clearly, she doesn't want to be a concubine

Chapter 164
On December 31, the night of New Year's Eve, Kangxi and his concubines, princes and ministers looked at the capital from the city wall.

Concubine Yi took out her clairvoyance and presented it.

After Kangxi adjusted it, he taught Concubine Yi to watch: "Look, everything is in front of you."

Concubine Yi said happily: "As expected, the emperor is really powerful."

At this time, it was an auspicious time, and the sky was full of fireworks.

Kangxi suddenly looked back at Umalu.

Umalu was looking up at the sky, neither sad nor happy.

In 1701 AD, the 40rd year of Kangxi.

In February, Kangxi visited Jidian, bringing Zhijun Wang Yinti, prince Yinreng, Sibeile Yinzhen, and thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang with him.

See the suburbs, between the fields, lush and green.

Kangxi asked about the current harvest of Huangzhuang, and then asked everyone about the harvest of their respective Huangzhuang.

At the end, Kangxi said: "After the Hunhe River is dug, the harvest of the fields near the capital should be able to increase."

He saw the green fields and said, "It's good that the common people can eat enough."

Everyone praised: "The emperor is benevolent."

In March, Kangxi heard that Wei Zhongxian, a treacherous eunuch of the Ming Dynasty, still had a cemetery, and there were often people offering sacrifices, so he immediately sent someone to check it out.

The minister came to report that the matter was true, and Kangxi ordered the destruction of Wei Zhongxian's tomb.

On the eighth day of April, Wang Yunjin gave birth to her eighteenth elder brother.

Because of the big seal in the palace last year, Kangxi only sent people to send some rewards for interrogation, and did not have the status of Jin Wang Yunjin.

Umalu also sent people to send some congratulatory gifts, but didn't say much.

From May to May, patrol outside the Great Wall.

Because Wang Yunjin was still in confinement, it was reported that she and Pinguaerjia were pregnant.

Kangxi brought two newcomers to the palace this year, one for Gao Zaiyigao and the other for Se Hetu; in addition, he also brought Yifei, and Chen Baishui, the birth mother of the seventeenth elder brother Yinli, Chen Guiren.

A total of four concubines.

In addition, he also brought Kangxi's companions: Xiezhi County King Yinti, Prince Yinfeng, Sanbeile Yinzhi, Sibeile Yinzhen, Babeile Yinhu, Thirteenth Elder Brother Yinxiang, Fourteenth Elder Brother Yinti, Ten The fifth elder brother Yinxu and the sixteenth elder brother Yinlu.

Since the prince is traveling, naturally all the princes will guard him, but there are also countless teams here.

Bring Zhijun Wang Yinti and Sanbeile Yinzhi to enjoy tea while riding horses and archery.

The fifteenth elder brother Yinyu was raised in the womb of the crown prince, so he was naturally very close to the crown prince Yinfeng.

The sixteenth elder brother Yinlu and the fifteenth elder brother Yinyu were born to the same mother, so Yinlu will go wherever Yinxi goes.

The thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang has always had a very good relationship with his fourth brother Yinzhen.He followed Yinzhen wherever he went.

Sometimes Yinzhen and Prince Yinreng discussed government affairs, and after Yinxiang went with him, he would play with fifteen or sixteen.

Seeing that Yinzhen's heart is thirteen, Yinti became more and more displeased, and he didn't bother to talk to his own mother and brother. He only pestered his starling Yinhu, and it was not easy for Yinhu to leave him.

Sometimes, several people get together.

The big ones talk about government affairs, while the small ones play games.

Yinti must win Yinli.

But if Yinti has gone too far, Yinzhen will say a few words to Yinti.

Yinti has a straightforward and violent temper, and after being said a few words, he will hate Yinzhen and leave with a flick of his sleeves.

Yinhu had no choice but to go after Yinhu.

This is the case today.

Yinzhen looked at the direction Yinti left, and Yinxiang advised him: "Fourth brother, go and see fourteenth brother, I don't mind."

Yinzhen looked away, looked at the blood on his mouth, and told him: "Go back in a while, I'll give you medicine."

Yinzhen pulled Yinli to sit down.

Prince Yinfeng joked: "Aren't you going to chase your younger brother, fourth brother? The eighth brother can go. If in the future, the fourteenth, his heart is not with you, but with the eighth brother, I will see what you will do then."

"He's been spoiled a bit, it's good to let him suffer." Yinzhen laughed, "He's young now, when he grows up, he'll know that I'm good for him."

Yinzhen looked at Yinxiang, sighed and shook his head: "We are all brothers, why is he so ruthless?"

"Then I don't know." Prince Yinreng covered his lips with tea to hide his smile.

On the other side, Yinhu chased Yinti back, and saw that Yinti was lying on the bed with his shoes on.

He poured him a glass of water, walked over to sit down, and said gently: "Fourth brother is also doing it for your own good, but it's worth talking."

Yinti was still angry, and snorted coldly: "I don't understand, is Shisan his younger brother, or I am his younger brother. He never once stood by my side."

Yinhu stopped talking and wiped off his sweat: "I'll put the water next to you, remember to drink it."

Yinti hugged his waist: "Brother, you can be my brother."

Yinhu didn't answer, just patted his head.

Kangxi who learned of this did not speak, as if the matter had been exposed.

In August, the outbound team returned to the palace.

On October [-]th, Hepin Guerjia gave birth to the eighteenth daughter of the emperor, who died soon.

Since then, the Guarja family has not given birth to any heirs.

In 1702 AD, the 41rd year of Kangxi.

On the 28th of the first lunar month, Kangxi visited Mount Wutai.

On this tour, Prince Yinreng, Fourth Belle Yinzhen, and Thirteenth Elder Brother Yinxiang accompanied him.

Kangxi laughed and said, "It's good to just bring the three of you out, for some peace."

The three of them had some guesses in their hearts, knowing that it was their imperial father who suggested the three of them, they only said yes.

Still staying at Baiyun Temple in Mount Wutai.

The three of them also came back for the first time, but they also felt that it was a novelty. Prince Yinreng took the two of them around to see all the temples on Mount Wutai.

Kangxi stayed at his residence, flipped through the Buddhist scriptures, and flipped through the "Ksitigarbha Sutra" several times.Looking at the "Because all living beings are different, they are saved by double bodies. Either appear as a man or a woman..." I was stunned.

After his tour to the south last year, he went back to the palace to find out that the bracelet of seven emotions was taken away by his imperial father, so he wrote to the imperial father to inquire, but there was no reply for a long time.

That's why I came to Mount Wutai.

Prayer is secondary.

The Qing Dynasty became stronger little by little under his hands, relying on his hard work for the people, not some ghosts and gods.

Even though he has experienced a few ghosts and ghosts along the way, he still has some doubts about these ghosts and gods.

It's a pity that Elder Xingchi has been away for many days, and the date of return has not yet been determined.

The emperor is always reluctant to see him.

Since the farewell nearly 20 years ago, he has never seen his imperial father again.

He couldn't even remember the face of his royal father.

In his heart, he held his breath.

He wanted to prove to his imperial father that it was wrong for the imperial father to abandon him and his biological mother in order to sacrifice to the empress.

Holding a Buddhist scripture in his hand, he was in a daze.

On the first day of March, Elder Xingchi still hasn't returned.

Kangxi drove back to the palace.

On the way back, inspect the Hun River and Ziya River.

Kangxi lived in Changchun Garden for a period of time, in June, to escape the summer outside the Great Wall.

Kangxi served the Empress Dowager to the Rehe Palace to escape the summer heat.

The Queen Mother has always loved Ruyi, so she took Ruyi with her.

In addition, Kangxi also brought the prince Yinreng, the fourth beile Yinzhen, the thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang, and the sixteenth elder brother Yinlu.

On June [-], Kangxi called ministers and princes to study calligraphy.

Kangxi not only displayed the big-character couplets in person, but also invited everyone to watch the couplets written by Yinzhen, the fourth beile, and Yinxiang, the thirteenth elder brother.

All the ministers looked around and were all delighted and admired.

When Kangxi saw this, he said with a smile: "The fourth and thirteenth elder brothers are good at calligraphy and painting. I am very happy, so today I invite all the ministers to watch with me."

All the ministers shouted long live.

The minister again tasted the characters of Yinzhen and Yinxiang.

Kangxi saw everything in his eyes.

Including several ministers looking at Prince Yinreng repeatedly, he also had a panoramic view.

He just smiled calmly.

The end is the kindness of the father and the filial piety of the son.

On June [-]th, Ruyi suffered from heatstroke, and Kangxi sent the imperial physician to treat her.

It hasn't healed for a long time.

On the first day of July, wishful death.

When the queen mother learned of this, she fainted immediately.

When he woke up again, Kangxi was already waiting by his side.

The queen mother burst into tears: "It's all my fault. I know she is not in good health, and I want her to accompany me on tour."

The Queen Mother choked up and could hardly speak: "But I was thinking..."

She cried out in mourning, hammering her heart, her heart ached to the extreme.

Ruyi, her wishful ah.

She is so clever, she is the most sensible and well-behaved Ruyi.

Why did it just go like this?

She yelled like crazy: "God thief, if you want to take someone in, why don't you take me away and give me back my wishes."

She covered her face and wept.

It was all her fault, she only thought that Ruyi would stay in the Forbidden City for a long time, and that after Ruyi got married, she could come out with her.

She wants to give all the good things to Ruyi.

Who knew that it cost her her life.

She mourned for a long time.

Kangxi, who accompanied the Queen Mother, was also in mourning, sitting silently.

He only ate his morning meal and didn't eat anything after that.

Wait until the queen mother is tired from crying and falls asleep.

Kangxi just returned to his residence, silent and dazed.

The retinue ministers said: "The emperor heard that the princess passed away, and he was too sad to have a meal. The ministers are afraid that the saint will be too tired."

Kangxi endured his grief and replied: "The princess is a married daughter, and I can forgive her. But she was brought up by the empress dowager since she was a child. Suddenly, the empress dowager mourned unceasingly. What are you thinking about eating?"

All ministers please return.

Kangxi went to visit the Empress Dowager's residence, the Empress Dowager was already awake, Kangxi comforted him and said: "Ruyi has always been filial, if you know that the Empress Dowager doesn't think about eating and drinking because of her passing away, I will be sad."

The queen mother wiped her tears, sat up forcibly and ate half a bowl of porridge.

Kangxi comforted again with good eyes: "Emperor Niang doesn't need to mourn for a long time. Ruyi comes from kindness. If you see us like this, I don't know how sad you are."

The queen mother was unable to answer, and only waved Kangxi to retreat.

After Kangxi returned to his residence, after eating, he ordered the ministers of the guards, one minister from the left and right wings, and ten guards to send the princess's coffin back to Beijing.

The news of Ruyi's death also came back to the palace, and Liuli waited carefully for Umalu.

Umalu smiled: "It's okay."

She sat in front of the window sill, looked up at the sky, and after a while she turned her head and looked at Liuli.

She smiled and said, "She just went to a place where there is longevity."

"Master." Liuli called out a little, unable to speak.

Umalu bent his lips and said with a smile: "It's all right."

Umalu is indeed fine, and behaves as usual.

It's just that there are fewer and fewer words.

She looked at the sky for a long time, as if looking at another country.

Along with the arrival of Ruyi's coffin, there was also Kangxi's decree. Kangxi ordered the Ministry of Rites to follow Princess Gulun's funeral.

After hearing this, Liuli told Umalu.

Liuli said: "The emperor ordered the funeral ceremony for the little master, Princess Gu Lun, to pay more attention to the little master."

"She was raised by the queen mother herself, and she is also the princess of the Tong family." Umalu's words were almost harsh, "He has to take care of this face."

Liuli looked at Umalu cautiously, but didn't speak.

Umalu didn't say anything, she just lowered her eyes and twirled the prayer beads, praying for the salvation of the deceased.

old friend.

Gone... people.

Soon after, the team that went out to escape the summer heat came back.

On Xinhai Day, Kangxi ordered the princes and civil and military officials to send the coffin of Princess Heshuo Wenxian to set off.

It's decent enough.

Until the time when she was buried in the princess's tomb, a large section of sacrificial rites all praised the Heshuo Wenxian Princess: "Princess Er showed off Ziwei, opened a silver man auspiciously, and raised a kind family from her infancy. Love is devoted to living, and there is no day. Contrary to the left and right. The weak are educated, the wisdom is long-term, the nature is as pleasant as the poems and books, and the deeds are in harmony with the history of the proverbs. It is said that the birth of the husband Jingfu is to be enjoyed forever, and the husband repairs the age to be the home of the uncle Yuan, and comforts the loving relatives love……"

After the funeral, the Empress Dowager fell ill within a few days, but it was not a serious illness, it was just that she lacked strength.

After asking the imperial doctor to examine her, she said that what the queen mother had was a heart disease, and the queen mother wanted to take care of it on her own, and she drank bowl after bowl of tranquilizing medicine and calming soup on weekdays.

Kangxi ordered that Wubeile Yinqi should go to the palace more often to accompany the queen mother.

Yinqi followed his words.

Accompanied by Yinqi, the Empress Dowager's illness gradually improved.

The queen mother leaned on the bed and said to him: "Your fifth sister has gone."

"Grandson knows." Yin Qi comforted the Queen Mother while holding hands, "Fifth Younger Sister has always been weak, so I can't blame anyone for that."

The queen mother shook her head and said stubbornly, "It's the emperor's grandmother's fault."

She looked at Yinqi for a long time: "Can you do the imperial grandmother a favor, good boy."

Yinqi nodded when he heard the words: "Grandmother, please tell me."

The queen mother sighed: "Your fourth brother and your fourteenth brother are brothers of the same mother as your fifth sister. If something happens to them in the future, help them if you can. You should atone for the emperor's grandmother."

Yinqi hurriedly said: "I don't blame the emperor's grandmother. I have always had a deep relationship with the fourth brother. If there is anything, I will definitely help the two of them. I also ask the emperor's grandmother not to worry too much about this matter. It is the right way to take good care of your body." thing."

The queen mother sighed and couldn't continue, just lying on the bed in a daze.

On the fifth day of September, Gao Zaiyi gave birth to Yinti, the nineteenth son of the emperor.

On September [-], Xi Concubine Hesheli died.

Kangxi ordered to stop court for two days to mourn, and to be buried with concubines.Besides, no other condolences.

Three days later, Kangxi toured the south, accompanied by Prince Yinreng, Fourth Belle Yinzhen, and Thirteenth Elder Brother Yinxiang.

Because of wishful things, Kangxi did not bring his concubines along on his southern tour this time.

However, when everyone traveled to Dezhou by the Grand Canal, Prince Yinfeng became seriously ill.

The palace servants who were serving the prince came and said that the prince was always saying Abao, or Lord Suo'etu's name.

Kangxi looked down at the burning Yinreng from a high position, lowered his eyes, and smiled slowly: "Come here, please come to Beijing to ask Mr. Suo'etusuo to attend to the sickness."

The guards took orders to invite Suo'etu.

Afterwards, Suo'etu stayed by Yinrong's side.

From time to time, the palace servants or guards who served the prince came to report.

It is said that Suo'etu talked about it many times when Yinreng was in a coma and when Yinreng was ill.

"The Great Qing Dynasty belongs to you, Crown Prince. Now you are sick and can't take any medicine, so how can you get better? Are you going to hand over the Great Qing Dynasty to someone else?"
