The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 228 The base of the tongue
For almost the whole day, the concubines stayed in the east side hall of Kunning Palace. The queen looked at the body in the small coffin of the second elder brother, unable to control herself, and shed tears again and again.

As for the funeral of the second elder brother, the Empress Dowager did not attend, nor did the Empress Dowager. I heard that I couldn't help but feel so sad when I looked at the little body of my second elder brother. It was really unbearable to see.

For the sake of the health of their two elders, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager took care of themselves in Cining Palace and Ciren Palace.

The second elder brother is noble. The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager are not only the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager supported by the whole country of the Qing Dynasty, but also the elders. The elders feel sad for the younger generation, which is unfilial to the younger generation. The reason is also valid. The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager have their own reasons for not coming.

However, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager both ordered their confidants to accompany them to show their care and attention.

However, even in Kunning Palace, I heard that the servants around the Empress Dowager made a special trip to Yongshou Palace. What exactly they said was unclear and unknown.

The news about Yongshou Palace is not so easy to find out.

The queen didn't know if she was too sad to care about everyone. She left Kunning Palace at night and walked on the dark palace road. Some people couldn't help but mutter and chew their tongues, "Tell me, is it Bila?" The child in the concubine's womb is a debt collector and the emperor's heir!"

I thought of Xianfu Palace, I thought of Concubine Bila, and I thought of the emperor's heirs who were either sick or dying one after another in the palace. The wind at night was so gloomy that it was most likely to lead to rumors of ghosts.

The more Concubine Zhang thought about it, the more likely it was, and she couldn't help but quarreled with the servant who was serving her.

It took more than three months for them to finally come out. Even if the concubine's speculation was somewhat reasonable, if she was not careful, she would be misled, and it was possible that she would be grounded again.

Concubine Zhang was not innocent. She was a child raised in a traditional way. She believed in praying to gods and worshiping Buddha. She was completely brainwashed by Buddhism. Concubine Zhang said, she also knew how to lower her voice, "Think about it, Concubine Bi La How long has it been since the concubine was diagnosed with pregnancy? Er Gege, who had always been in good health, suddenly became seriously ill; and the second elder brother, who had always been in good health, suddenly fell ill and passed away! "

"The one in Concubine Bila's belly is also a dragon fetus? We just came out? We can't make the same mistake again." Du Juan knew the temperament of this master best and reminded her hurriedly.

Dujuan became more frightened and frightened as she was told, and hurriedly spoke to Concubine Zhang. She was frightened and begged Concubine Zhang to stop talking, "Concubine, you and me have nothing to do with you, so let's just leave it alone..."

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, there was a thump and he said hurriedly. The piece of meat in Concubine Bila's belly is, after all, an unformed heir, and it is not something that slaves can arrange.

The concubine has a big princess at her knees, and big princess is already dead. Even if she is the heir to the emperor, what does it have to do with their palace.

Although February also felt that it was possible, it could not be said. Thinking about how long it had been since Concubine Bila was diagnosed with pregnancy, Concubine Dong's second princess fell ill once, and her second elder brother was even more serious and died immediately.

The servant was startled by what she said, "Concubine, you don't want to talk nonsense." On the fourth day of the lunar month, he looked around. Even though the palace lanterns on the palace road were brightly lit, there were only two of them.

Will they still have a place in the palace when they come out next time?
Du Juan understands the concubine. Although the concubine is timid and cowardly, she is self-interested enough. As long as her own future is involved, she will definitely avoid it quickly enough.

Concubine Zhang hurriedly shut up and looked around to make sure she saw no one, "Thank you for reminding me."

This will do them no good. Concubine Zhang had lingering fears about the months she was confined.

As soon as you hear it's harmful, shut your mouth quickly! Qinrou couldn't think of going here. She couldn't think so deeply and couldn't imagine so many feudal dross.

And Qinrou didn't know that there were more than one or two people who thought like Concubine Zhang. It's just that others are more 'smart'. Even if they criticize others, they do so secretly behind their backs, so that they don't easily let others take advantage of them.

On the second day, Concubine Niu Hulu still didn't show up, and was still 'reflecting in self-reflection' behind closed doors. The gate of Yongshou Palace is easy to close, but it is difficult to open it again.

But I heard from the concubines living in the Yongshou Palace: Even though Concubine Niu Hulu was retreating to the palace to reflect on herself, and even though she had never visited the second elder brother's mourning hall in person, she was still dressed in plain palace clothes, and her face was full of mourning.

Even in the daytime, she was dressed a little plainly, especially when the lama was chanting sutras to pray for the second elder brother and send the second elder brother to his death. Concubine Niu Hulu also had a straight face, with a sad look on her brows and eyes, and a peaceful face. Standing in the palace, praying for the second elder brother.

It is also a gift to the second elder brother for the last level.

Qinrou said in her heart. Concubine Niu Hulu said, if there is no accident, she will win big.

Now that the battle between the descendants and Concubine Niu Hulu has been announced, Concubine Niu Hulu will not let go. The grief will definitely spread before people arrive.

Only by standing upright can you not be at a disadvantage.

With great righteousness, the Niu Hulu clan is not bad at all. They can win their own honor. It is too easy to be invincible.

The lama had already recited sutras all day yesterday, and today will be the whole day. Tomorrow, the small coffin of the second elder brother will be carried out of the Forbidden City.

However, there has been no news in the previous court. Probably we have to wait a little longer, brew and brew again, and then burst out together!
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, but at the time of Yinshi, the second elder brother's small coffin was quietly carried out of the palace by a few palace maids and eunuchs, under the watch of the emperor, the queen and all the concubines. A lama also followed.

They had to officially send the second elder brother to the mausoleum, and then their duties would be considered terminated.

The queen cried and fell into the emperor's arms. All the concubines also cried sadly. Even though everyone had tears streaming down their faces, they still did not dare to speak out. The queen was sad, and their cries may not make the queen happy. , but it will arouse the queen's disgust.

Even if the second elder brother's small coffin left, everyone did not dare to return to their respective palaces. The Queen didn't say anything. Who among them would dare to take a step forward? If they were really that stubborn and not afraid of the Queen's resentment, they would not just be concubines now, but would have been concubines long ago.

So the concubines can only wait!

"I will send the queen back to the palace to rest." Kangxi had already accepted the death of his second elder brother. He had also seen the queen's behavior in the past few days. He knew that the queen was sad and understood the queen's sadness. She also knew that the queen's behavior in the past few days was During the day, I shed tears all day long.

It was impossible not to be sad, not only sad about the departure of the second elder brother, but also concerned about the Queen's health. The emperor's heart belongs to the lotus root, and there may be a person living in every house.

Kangxi, both as an emperor and as a husband, hoped that the queen could cheer up as soon as possible.

The emperor escorted the queen back to the palace to rest, and the concubines all breathed a sigh of relief. The queen was immersed in sadness and didn't care about being tired, but they did.
