Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

Concubine Zhao continued: "Now this Yikun Palace is not big, and there is a Yigui living there. I feel empty. Living in Kunning Palace in the future, isn't it going to be more deserted? Even if the room is full of people, if you feel empty It's empty, and I can't fill it up. Dongyun, am I ugly?"

"What did you say, empress? If you want to talk about elegance and luxury in the palace, who can compare with you?" Dong Yunming knew why the master was melancholy, but she couldn't say those words.

Concubine Zhao sneered coldly: "Really? Graceful and luxurious, I don't even remember what I looked like when I was at their age. If I were gentler and smarter, wouldn't he like me?"

"master……"

"Dong Yun, do you know how I got this noble concubine position and the future successor position?" Concubine Zhao reached out and took off the phoenix hairpin from her bun, and tore off the oriental beads on her chest, and the beads scattered All over the ground, there was a crackling sound, which frightened Dong Yun very much.Concubine Zhao stepped back, stepped on Dadongzhu, slipped and fell heavily, but fortunately Dongyun hugged her in time, and the master and servant rolled together.

Concubine Zhao Gui started to cry, but she covered her mouth and dared not cry out. She curled up in Dongyun's arms and twitched, wishing to cry loudly, wishing to vent her depression wantonly. She got everything she wanted, but in the end Lost the hearts and minds she once longed for.

Xuan Ye told her to give her the back seat and let her keep Wu Yashi safe in this palace, and there are no other conditions other than that, as long as Wu Yashi is safe in this palace, she can sit safely in Kunning Palace inside.

She has always wanted the position of empress but could not get it. Now the emperor has given it to her, but she can't take it away, but the associated responsibilities are too cheap and humble. It turns out that she, the empress of the world, only exists for a little one. Today When standing in a high position and looking down upon the concubines, she has no sense of glory, behind the radiant costume, there is only a heart of humiliation.

And the slender and beautiful little Chang Zai standing in the crowd, with peaceful and clear eyes, completely unaware of her lowly status, carrying the light of the middle palace, people say the uncrowned king, so is she the uncrowned queen?

It turned out that she was not unreasonable to entrap Wu Yashi back then, so how could the emperor's words not be involuntary?

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Concubine Tong devoted herself to giving birth in Chengqian Palace. Without her walking around in the palace, the sixth palace felt much deserted. Concubine Zhao had already started to prepare for New Year’s Eve and Spring Festival at Concubine Zhao’s place. Busy and busy, others could not see her thoughts.

In October, Xuanye held a lecture on the sutra feast as scheduled, and discussed with the officials on the study of "Tongjian" for three consecutive days. The work on the top was enough for her to use her brains, and she was shocked by the serious atmosphere in the hall when she moved a little forward, she didn't dare to overstep, so she just quietly led the maids and eunuchs to guard behind.

Three days later, Xuan Ye still couldn't finish it, and sometimes when he talked to her, Xiao Changzai said frankly: "The concubine didn't listen to anything."

"I bothered you to stay behind for three days, but you didn't listen to anything?" Xuan Ye stretched out his hand to pinch her ears, "What do you use these ears for?"

Of course the emperor wouldn't twist it hard, but when he was teasing her, Lan Qi struggled and muttered unconvinced: "Does the emperor think that you don't have to worry about tea kung fu? It depends on whether you drink tea every day to reduce fire or nourish your spirit Yes, I'm afraid I'm hungry so I want to serve ** tea, I'm afraid it's cold in the morning and I want to warm it up, and I'm afraid I will be sleepy in the afternoon, so I want to drink ginseng tea. These three days, the ministers and concubines have not been idle, and they have never seen such dedication in front of the Empress Dowager. But the empress dowager is always afraid of my hard work, and she feels distressed for something, and the emperor doesn't praise how well the tea is served, but twists people's ears."

Xuan Ye was angry and funny, pointed at her and said: "You are getting more and more hypocritical, who did you learn Kung Fu from, I really should leave you alone for a few days, and then you will know that you are wrong."

Lan Qi hummed softly: "When the emperor ignores the concubine, the concubine will go to the Palace of Compassion to Serve the Empress Dowager. These days, she is always pestered by others, and she is really thinking about the Empress Dowager."

Xuan Ye came up to push her: "Go, go, I still hate you when I see you, your mouth is getting more and more powerful, it's okay to say a few words obediently in the past, but now one sentence is worth ten sentences, why don't you go back to the emperor's grandmother .”

Xiao Changzai smiled cheerfully, pointed to the emperor's hand holding her arm and asked: "Since the emperor wants to drive out the concubine, how can the concubine get out?"

This really irritated Xuan Ye. As soon as he finished speaking, he was picked up and thrown on the kang to be tickled. It was useless to beg for mercy and act like a baby. Xuan Ye was about to cry until he let go. He pinched her cheek angrily and said : "You are not allowed to be eloquent, if you continue like this, I will really punish you."

The little man snuggled into the emperor's arms, sobbed twice and said, "I just want to make a fuss to change your mind so that you can rest your head, just because your majesty has been racking his brains to give lectures these few days. The Empress Dowager said, you must be exhausted after the past three days, and I want my concubines to pay attention to serving you."

Xuan Ye also knew that Lan Qi was not a spoiled and willful person, and after arguing with her just now, he relaxed a little, and kissed her forehead lightly: "I know you have bothered, every sip of tea these three days has been drunk very much." Shu Tan, otherwise, where does the spirit come from to make trouble with you now, my little Changzai couldn't be more considerate."

Lan Qi smiled like a flower, and asked softly: "Then what does the emperor want to reward his concubines?"

Xuan Ye smiled: "When I seal the seal in the twelfth lunar month, I will be with you every day."

Xiao Changzai was overjoyed, but he also knew how to measure, his eyeballs rolled around, and he compared a number and said, "That's not going to work... My concubine, it only takes three days."

The two were talking happily. Eunuch Li said something to report in front of the door. Lan Qi got up and gathered her clothes and stood aside. When Eunuch Li came in, she only heard him say: "Brother came to report, saying that little brother Brother is not well."

Xuan Ye frowned and asked what the disease was. He heard that it was a little serious, so he felt uneasy, but Mr. Rong was having a baby, and a few days ago he said that the fetus was restless and should not move around. He was thinking whether to go and see for himself, Lan Qi begged and said: " Your Majesty, take a rest, and my concubine will take a trip for you, and then I will return to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, so I can tell Honorable Honor by the way."

"Go ahead, you are also close to Rong Guiren. She may not be relieved if she is someone else. Tell the Imperial Hospital, and she will be diagnosed and treated properly." Xuan Ye has always wanted Lan Qi to get closer to the few concubines he likes in the palace, Rong Guiren He has been by his side for more than ten years, and he is the first person he trusts besides Lan Qi.

After Lan Qi took the order, she went to Elder Brother's place, and the maids and maids over there now knew the importance of Wu Changzai in front of the emperor, and also heard that the emperor had personally sent him, and they were very attentive to serve and lead the way.When I arrived at the little elder brother's room, I saw that the one-year-old milk baby was running a fever, unable to sleep and crying in the nurse's arms.

"Little elder brother was tired from playing yesterday, so he developed a fever at night." The maid who was serving said timidly, "I thought it was a pimple, but I stayed there all night but I didn't see it. , there is no sign of acne."

Lan Qi has never given birth herself, and she doesn't know how to take care of children. She just looks at the little elder brother in pain, and she can't help but feel distressed. She can only tell the maids and doctors to take good care of her, but she heard the nanny say: "Yesterday, the concubine Zhaogui came to see her." All the princes and princesses I saw brought many toys to eat and eat, and the princes and princesses played a little crazy, and the empress played with her for a long time because of her happiness, and the servants did not dare to stop them."

Lan Qi's brows trembled slightly, and she hoped that the little elder brother would be fine, and if there was anything, Concubine Zhao couldn't tell, and it wasn't that she wanted to speak for Concubine Zhao, but it was better to have one more thing in the palace than one less thing, and it was for Xuan Ye. The less hassle the better.

"You serve with all your heart, the imperial concubine is here to love the elder brothers and princesses, don't say these things elsewhere, if you say too much, it is right and wrong, if anything happens, you will be implicated and cannot get rid of it, now the little elder brother takes care of himself It's important." Lan Qi said this gently, and the maids and nuns listened humbly, and then the imperial doctor came and said some of the little elder brother's symptoms, and she memorized them one by one, and asked the little eunuch to report to the emperor in Qianqing Palace, and then went to the Mercy first. When Ning Gong came to return, the Empress Dowager was naturally worried, and sent her to Ronggui to appease her.

Mrs. Rong's fetus moved violently a few days ago, and she stayed on the bed for the past few days. Today, she heard that the little elder brother was ill, and she has been frowning. Seeing Lan Qi coming now, and listening to her explain the reason, she only sighed heavily. : "I lost so many children, and none of them took care of me. I didn't know whether to feel guilty or regret. The children were taken away as soon as they were born. If they were cold, hot, hungry, or painful, it had nothing to do with their mother. I can’t even blame myself, I have nowhere to work hard, and I never know what to do.”

"You can take care of the baby at ease, little elder brother will be fine." Lan Qi also felt helpless, and could only say these innocuous words to comfort her.

Rong Guiren sighed quietly, took her hand and said: "Sister, you are now the person in Long live Lord's heart. Although you are soft-tempered, but being doted on like that, why don't you grow a bit more temperamental? I thought about waiting The day you had a child, but the child was taken away, I must not be able to bear it. As a sister, I advise you, on that day, think about it, no matter how much the emperor loves you, our background and status are here, the emperor will also You can't go beyond the rules of your ancestors, if you break the rules for one or two people and make the six palaces restless, it is our sin."

"Thank you for your reminder, my concubine will keep these words in my heart." Lan Qi knew that Ronggui would not say such things to others easily, so she regarded herself as a confidant at the moment, of course she was very grateful, and comforted her to take good care of her illness. Bring something to surprise her.

When returning from Ronggui's place, he passed by the gate of Chengqian Palace, and just saw the imperial physician go in, without thinking much about it, but when he returned to Zhongcui Palace, Bu Changzai hurriedly said: "The child in Chengqian Palace is born again. It's not good, Mrs. Rong's fetus was disturbed a few days ago, today the little elder brother is sick again, and the concubine Tong is also not well, how can there be such a coincidence, did you go to elder brother's place to see Duan Jing today? Is she okay?"

"The little elder brother I went to see, I was afraid to go to see Duanjing again in case some disease was passed on to her, so I didn't go to see it. The princesses and elder brothers in the elder brother's office were also separated. My sister was relieved and asked the nuns , Duanjing is lively." Lan Qi responded, but she was very strange, "Hasn't Concubine Tong always been fine?"

Bu Changzai pulled her and said in a low voice: "I don't dare to say this out loud, but the eldest sister in my family is also married to her cousin. She got pregnant four or five times in seven or eight years of marriage, but none of them was kept. I don't know if it's because of this, but seeing Concubine Tong like this..."
