Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

The fifth elder brother and the sixth elder brother were all with them on this trip. Although they were only a few months old, no one would be at ease in the palace. It's better to be careful on the road so that they can be safely sent to the garden to raise them.

And look at the people accompanying the driver, outside the palace are Prince Yu and Prince Gong's two concubines, and inside the palace are De concubines, which seems to be nothing, but if you think about it carefully, the two concubines are both in the palace. The main house and the main wife, what about the concubines who were with them? People who are interested dare not say it, and those who don't naturally don't think about it.

As soon as the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager left the palace, Xuan Ye went back to the Qianqing Palace alone, and the palaces and courts should also be dispersed. The noble concubine hurriedly returned to the Qian Palace, but she didn't want Concubine Wen to follow up and say: "Can the concubine follow the empress to see?" Fourth elder brother?"

Concubine Tong glanced at her, and sneered: "I think someone is talking in this palace, and I haven't seen each other very much during the New Year's Day. I almost forgot that there is still a lady living in Xianfu Palace."

Concubine Wen bowed her body and smiled: "The concubine has been in poor health, so I didn't go out for a walk. Today I am here to see the Empress Dowager out. I feel comfortable when I go out for a walk. It has been so long since I have not been able to properly congratulate the empress on her happy son. I want to go and have a look, I heard that the fourth elder brother can already call Er Niang." She said and pointed to Dong Yun who was holding something behind her, "Look, empress, the concubine brings congratulatory gifts when she goes out."

Tong Guifei snorted and said, "It's all about the autumn of last year. Do you want to thank you for your kindness? I don't think it's necessary. Since you said that your body is always bad, you shouldn't go to Chengqian Palace, fourth elder brother You're young, what if you contract your disease? Didn't you explain everything to me before? You've been fine these days, so is it possible that something has happened to you again? "

Concubine Wen lowered her eyebrows and smiled: "I remember those words, but I'm going to see the fourth elder brother, because of the favor of the concubine De."

The noble concubine was furious in her heart, she hated people to put the fourth elder brother and the concubine together, but because she was outside at the moment, with more or less eyes watching from the side, she still suppressed her anger, and said coldly: " Take care of your mouth, there are only a few good ones in the palace."

Concubine Wen smiled innocently, and asked back: "What did the concubine say, isn't the fourth elder brother born to the concubine? I heard that the concubine has never let the concubine see the child, and the concubine still doesn't believe it. Now you don't even have the concubine. Let's see, I think my mother really can't see it."

Concubine Tong was just about to leave. After hearing this, she simply turned around and stood in front of her, nailing every word on her body like nails: "Your sister is short-lived, you can't see it, but if you don't want to live, I have a lot of solutions here." To fulfill you, what drug have you taken to lose your mind? It’s better to find arsenic poison and eat it to be clean.”

Seeing that the two were about to choke, Qinglian didn't understand why the well-behaved Concubine Wen came to provoke her again, so she hurriedly persuaded the concubine to go back and coaxed her with the fourth elder brother, so that she took her master away, but Concubine Tong was captured by Niu Hu Lu's stomach was full of anger, thinking about Yinzhen again, so he sent someone to send a letter to his family, wondering if Niu Hulu, the leader outside the palace, wanted to play some tricks, otherwise Concubine Wen would never be so obsessed again.

The other people saw that Concubine Tong and Concubine Wen looked embarrassed and seemed to be breaking up unhappy, and they didn't dare to wait to watch the fun. Once Concubine Tong went away, they all dispersed separately, Concubine Rong and Concubine Duan accompanied each other. I want to go to Zhongcui Palace to see Dai Jia who has been in poor health for the past few days. Dai promised that she has been in poor health since the end of February. Before Lan Qi leaves the palace, please take good care of her concubine Duan.

"The imperial doctor said that the fetus was not stable, so I advised her to move to the Dongpei Hall, which is better than the backyard. She said it was the place where Concubine De lived, but she refused." Concubine Duan sighed and said, "It's a peaceful place. Man, seeing how his eyebrows look a bit like a concubine, he thought he would use this to gain favor, but this is fine now, I don't worry."

Concubine Rong knew that it was not just Dai Jia that Concubine Duan was lamenting, but that Wu Ya would not be in the sixth palace in the next few months, and the emperor would have to be surrounded by someone to serve her. The women finally looked forward to this day, and the tricks of Yingying and Yanyan in previous years It's time to come again, I don't know who will show up this time.

"The two sisters in Yikun Palace are probably working hard." Concubine Rong said, approaching Concubine Duan and said, "I heard that the elder brother was naughty and teasing the master in the study, and the emperor was furious and disturbed the family law. It is said that some rumors have spread that Concubine Hui has always been in a bad mood, and I am afraid she will not let it go easily this time, and she will be 30 years old two years later."

Concubine Duan stroked her temple hair, they were not old, but the later ones were too young, Wu Ya has now given birth to two elder brothers as concubines, but she is only in her early twenties, and still has a lot of youth In this palace, they are obviously not old, but they seem to have come to an end.

"For Concubine Hui's elder brother, for myself, that time really hurt Lord Long Live. The Emperor talked to me once. He knows my difficulties, and I also know his difficulties." As if turning red, she covered the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

Concubine Duan advised her: "Let's take care of the child and live a good life. Empress Hesheli and Empress Niu Hulu have left, and we were left with you and me at that time. He will never forget the friendship. If young people want to make trouble, we can just watch it coldly. It is serious to raise children and live a good life. No matter how bad it is, I see that Wu Ya's fortune is still to come. She gets along well, and the emperor also loves the house."

Concubine Rong smiled bitterly: "I really don't know if she will grow old in ten years and will no longer be young, will she also rely on the newcomer, Aiwujiwu?"

As soon as they spoke, they had already arrived at Zhongcui Palace. When the two of them entered the door, a maid said that there was a guest coming later. It was Jue Chan from Yikun Palace who agreed. Concubine Rong was very surprised: "Why did she come here?"

When he came to Dai Jia's room in the backyard, he saw Bu Guiren and Jue Chan sitting beside him. When he saw them coming, he quickly got up and saluted. Dai promised to say happily: "Sister Jue Chan sent hundreds of family gifts to my concubine. be come."

"It was Madam Yi's idea. Madam Yi was ordered to rest and not leave Yikun Palace, so she asked my concubine to bring it here." Jue Chan responded, moving stools with the maids for Concubine Duan and Concubine Rong to sit on. The room here is small and crowded when there are too many people, she wanted to leave, but Concubine Rong smiled, "You just leave when I come, people still think we have a rift, my sister also sit down quickly, let's talk, then After a few days when the weather is hot, I really get tired of a room full of people huddled together."

Jue Chan agreed, seeing the court lady bringing tea, she also helped to serve it in front of the two of them. The women in the room talked amicably for a while, and Dai promised that he would not be able to stay with him for a long time after all because of his poor health. Concubine Rong and Concubine Duan went to the front Sitting in the main hall, this time Jue Chan really said goodbye and wanted to go back to his life, and everyone did not force him to stay.

As soon as she left, Mrs. Bugui also went back to rest. Concubine Rong and Concubine Duan sat in the room, dismissing Ji Xin and the others, Concubine Rong said, "Did you see that?"

Concubine Duan nodded again and again: "You always say you are beautiful, but I still don't believe it. Now that I have a closer look, I realize that people are better than others, and Concubine De is far inferior to her."

"I heard that Guo Guiren hates her for always abusing her, probably because of her good looks." Concubine Rong clicked her tongue, "There will be a lot of fun in the past few months, let's wait and see."

Here, Jue Chan returned to Yikun Palace and came to the main hall to return to Yipin. She saw Guo Guiren squatting aside and humming. She knew that Guo Guiren had thinned his fat body after giving birth to the princess in order to shrink his waist. After eating a few mouthfuls of food, her body has indeed lost a lot of weight, but her face is sallow, and she can't walk when she goes to see off the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager today. She actually came out to the Yikun Palace. It's ridiculous to think about it.

Yipin heard that Baijia was sent, sighed and said: "Now I can only spread favors like this, when I can walk around in summer, I will go to various places in person, no matter how good it is, I will become the God of Plague Don't you like being approached?"

Jue Chan remained silent, and was about to leave soon, Guo Guiren suddenly stood up and asked her: "Ms Dai Jia is not healthy?"

"It's not a good look. I'm tired after a few words with my concubine."

Guo Guiren sneered: "Do you know why?"

Jue Chan shook her head, but imagined that Guo Guiren would not have anything good to say, so she really heard her say: "She is just a poor wretch picked up by Concubine De. It's not bad luck to flirt with others in front of you, but the retribution still comes, it's not good right now, I look at this child, it may not be..."

"Sister, don't you have strength?" Yipin interrupted her sister, and turned to Jue Chan, "Thank you for your hard work, you can rest in the room for the next few days, pollen and catkins are flying around, you are prone to coughing Breathe, there is no need to come to the front."

Guo Guiren immediately interjected, "Don't come forward, or I'll chop off your feet."

Jue Chan bowed and agreed, and came to her room expressionlessly. Her maid Xianghe didn't go out with her today, but when she saw her back, she pulled her closer and said, "Your servant is going to wash clothes. When you come back, you see Guo Guiren's maid is here We are sneaky here, and the servants searched when they returned to the house, you see."

Seeing that Xianghe was holding a black velvet bag in his hand, Jue Chan took a look, his eyebrows twisted in surprise, his heart pounded, it was a talisman written in a mess, the only thing that could be seen on it. What I know is my birthday horoscope, I think Guo Guiren will not pray for him, it must be a curse.

After being frightened, she felt chilly. She went to the incense burner and lit it with her own hands. Looking back, she saw a piece of Yibi's unfinished clothes on the kang. She quietly took the embroidery basket and cut the black velvet bag. The long strips are inlaid on the hem of the clothes one by one. The rose red dark pattern is matched with black velvet trim and pressed with gold and silver thread, which is also very unique.

Just after finishing these things, Guo Guiren’s maid came again, this time she came in a dignified manner, and said with a smile that Guo Guiren was reducing her diet, and sent all the snacks she used to Jue Chan. Jue Chan thanked the delicate and superior food with a smile, but when the maid walked away, she said to Xiang He, "I don't want to eat it, and don't let them see it after you take care of it."

Xianghe also nodded: "Maybe there is some kind of medicine in it, if you eat it, you will be poisoned to death."

Jue Chan felt excited, bit his lips, picked up a piece of snack, and said nervously with his fist clenched in one hand: "Xianghe, are you willing to eat it for me? In the future, I will definitely take you out of Yikun Palace, so that no one will be allowed to eat it again." Bullying you. If I don’t eat, she will think of other ways to torment me when she sees that I’m not sick or in trouble, but I can’t eat now, do you understand?”

Xianghe was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it for a while, she understood what she meant. She immediately grabbed it and swallowed it, and ate some of the other things in the box. In the evening, Xianghe had a stomach ache and rolled all over the bed, and went to the toilet several times to get better. Judging from the symptoms, the food might be mixed with some kind of diarrhea medicine. Xianghe cried and said: "Guo Guiren is too vicious. gone."

Jue Chan covered her with a quilt and let her rest well: "She is afraid that I will spoil their good deeds by going to the front, and I will also pretend to be sick. You should get well quickly so that you can take care of me."

In the next few days, Mrs. Jue Chan stayed on the sick bed. The first concubine Yi felt strange when she heard that, until she heard her younger sister smiling coldly at the side and said: "She can't die, but she deserves to be sick if she eats too much. Sister, you worry about her." What are you doing? Concubine Hui is leaving her here now, why are we bothering because we are not relatives? It is important to be on guard against the vixen who will try to seduce the emperor. The emperor is in Chengqian Palace these days, waiting to give the noble concubine enough face, It's time to go shopping elsewhere, if the flowers in our Yikun Palace are blooming well, the emperor will definitely come."

Speaking of which, Guo Guiren called Tao Hong and told her: "Go and cook all kinds of seasonal soups, and send them to the Qianqing Palace on time every day. No matter whether Eunuch Li receives it or not, and whether the emperor drinks it or not, you have to send it. Madam Yipin stewed it herself, did you hear?"

Taohong agreed again and again, Yipin asked her sister what to do, Guo Guiren blamed her sister: "The Empress Dowager didn't let you go out, she didn't say that the emperor couldn't come, Lord Long Live came back, and was disturbed by Jue Chan's little hoof, now let Taohong go out every day Send Bu Tang, Eunuch Li is a sensible person, and concubine De is not in the palace, the emperor is full of blood and can't be left alone to serve, our sisters have never provoked the emperor's dislike, why can't it work?"

Yipin thinks about it too, she and the emperor have no real unpleasantness, and she has been silent in Yikun Palace until now, but because the empress dowager let her take care of her body, no one said she did anything wrong.As for raising the child with the Empress Dowager, there are also nice words out there, saying that she was worried about the desertedness of the Empress Dowager Ningshou Palace, so she received no less rewards than others on New Year's Eve and New Year's Eve. Sending them to Yikun Palace face to face, in this way, the circumstances of myself and Concubine Hui are absolutely different, Concubine Hui may have really come to an end, and I just started.

In the blink of an eye at the beginning of April, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager were recuperating well in the garden. When the news came back to the Forbidden City, Xuan Ye was naturally relieved. As for Lan Qi, although he missed her, he wanted her to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the palace and be safe with the imperial grandmother. After a few months of quietness, there will be postpartum body needs maintenance, and I will be happy to enjoy the ups and downs of longing. In the future, a little farewell is better than a newlywed, and we will naturally get closer when we meet again.

The only one who has worked hard is probably Eunuch Li. Since the concubine de concubine left the palace, the empresses and masters of all the palaces and courts have taken care of him, sending money and things, trying their best to bribe him, hoping that it is Eunuch Li who can send Shengjia to Cited in their yard.But Mr. Li has been working in the Qianqing Palace for so many years, and there is nothing he hasn't seen. How can this little favor be moved? In his opinion, it is better to wait for the emperor to see someone than to ask the emperor to meet someone inexplicably. Right now The palace is not as lacking of elder brother and princess as in previous years, he doesn't need to worry about it, in case he thinks he is clever and self-defeating, he will end up as a man inside and out.

As for the fact that Yikun Palace regularly delivered soup every day, other places followed suit within a few days. Eunuch Li told the emperor truthfully while he was dumbfounded, but it was not the first day that Xuan Ye became the emperor. One day there is a harem, such a thing is not surprising, but I just laughed it off with Eunuch Li, and occasionally he would use some of the soup that entered his stomach, and let Eunuch Li handle most of it by himself.

These days, Xuanye mostly stays in Chengqian Palace or Xianfu Palace. Firstly, he doesn’t want to make any jokes in the harem’s rivalry. Ama, it is the cutest time, although Concubine Tong also likes that the emperor often visits their mother and son, but Xuan Ye will not tell her that when he holds the child, he thinks of Lan Qi who is with the emperor's grandmother outside the palace .

It is customary in May that the emperor will mourn Empress Hesheli. In those days at the beginning of the month, he hardly enters the harem. The women in the palace stretched their necks and waited for so long, but as the summer was about to pass, the emperor didn't even look at anyone, and gradually someone supported her. Can't stop, the soup and snacks delivered every day in front of the Qianqing Palace began to decrease.

Until the middle of May, only Yikun Palace was still insisting on offering soup and tonic every day.On this day, the emperor finally turned over the sign. Guo Guiren was summoned to serve in bed. When Eunuch Li sent someone to deliver the decree, Guo Guiren was so happy that he didn't even care about his sister's face, and ran back to her own room happily. The house is going to dress up and get ready.

Tao Hong sends the little eunuch away from Qianqing Palace, and when she comes back, she sees her master's face is very ugly, she softly persuades her: "The emperor is thinking of the nobleman, why doesn't he miss the empress, maybe he summoned the nobleman today, and he will come to our Yikun Palace tomorrow."

Yipin gave her a cold look, and said duplicity: "My own sister is fine, of course it's me, what are you thinking about? Go and help her dress up, she has lost a lot of weight in the past two months, but her complexion is not good. Great."

Tao Hong was bored and didn't dare to talk too much. She came to Guo Guiren's room and heard her say before entering the door: "The emperor always likes me more. My sister used to be quite lively, but now she is getting more and more dull. The emperor doesn't like boring gourds, even if he opens his mouth, he's full of great truths, whether it's annoying or not."

Hearing these words, Tao Hong didn't go back to the door, thinking that a sister who was born out of her mother's belly can say such words, Guo Guiren will lose to her own mouth sooner or later.When she was about to go back to the main hall, she vaguely saw someone going out, but she couldn't see it clearly, so she didn't think much about it.

The person who came out from under Taohong's eyelids was Jue Chan's master and servant. Xianghe didn't know what the master was going to do, but she got up from the bed to dress up after hearing the decree that Guo Guiren was going to go to the Qianqing Palace at night. He didn't deliberately make it look beautiful, he simply dressed up like a court lady at first glance, and sneaked out with her.

The two walked along the wall for a long time, and when they were approaching the Qianqing Palace, Jue Chan gave Xiang He two pieces of silver that Concubine Hui had given her in the past, and asked her to find a little eunuch near the Qianqing Palace to ask where the emperor was. She was not in the palace, but said she was the maid of nobleman Guo of Yikun Palace, and wanted to wait for the emperor at the intersection, but Xianghe was a bold girl, so she went immediately.

The two pieces of silver were scattered, and the news was also received that Lord Long Live is not in Qianqing Palace at the moment, he just went to Chengqian Palace an hour ago, and he heard that the fourth elder brother had a cough, so he went with the imperial physician.Juechan agreed to take Xianghe away without any explanation. There are very few people wandering around in the hot weather. Both of them looked like court ladies, and no one cared on the road. They walked until they were near the Qianqing Palace. After listening to the news, I waited for half an hour before seeing any signs of opening the palace gate.

"Master, do we want to stop the emperor?" Xianghe still doesn't understand what he promised to do. If he wants to show his face in front of the emperor, the master can dress up more beautifully. The emperor will definitely give her such a good-looking person. It's unforgettable to see her, but today when the two of them came out together, she was dressed almost like a court lady, how could she be liked like this?

"I stopped driving outside the Chengqian Palace. I was beaten to death by the imperial concubine before I was mad at Guo Guiren." Jue Chan took Xianghe and walked back along the way. After walking a long way, he stopped. After coming down, he took Xianghe's hand and said, "Slap me hard, hard, until you see five finger marks."

Xiang He was stunned and trembling all over: "Master... what are you going to do?"

"You slap me so that I will never be slapped by Guo Guiren again. Xianghe, do you still want to stay in Yikun Palace?" With a resolute expression, "I went to ask Concubine Hui to leave there and not be bullied by Guo Guiren again, but when I turned around, I fell into Concubine Hui's hands again, so that no matter where I go, I will be pinched by others for the rest of my life. I would rather die alone in a corner of the palace in the desert than to be controlled by them. Xiang He, you hit me hard, I won't blame you."

Xiang He was so frightened that tears flowed down her face, but when she heard her master say this, she immediately regained her courage.They had suffered so much in Yikun Palace, no one would believe them, and if they agreed well, their lives would be worse than slaves, and it would be meaningless to live in such a hopeless life, so it would be better to give it a go, so they gritted their teeth and closed their eyes for a while. The slap was thrown out, shaking her hands numb, the person in front of her took a slap suddenly, her head suddenly turned black and she fell down, when she recovered, she felt her left cheek swell hotly, and when she stretched out her hand, she felt a tingling pain. Edge by edge must be fingerprints.

Xianghe cried and asked, "Does the master hurt?"

But there were footsteps in the distance, Jue Chan pulled her to kneel down, pulled out the hairpin from her bun and threw it on the ground, stretched out her hand to loose Xianghe's collar, and also twisted her bun, As if the two of them had been tortured severely, they knelt against the base of the wall. After waiting, the emperor approached.

Eunuch Li followed Yujia over, and saw two people kneeling in front of him from a long distance away, at first he thought it was a passing court lady kneeling and waiting for Shengjia to pass by, but he didn't care when he got closer, but he could see it, How could Xuan Ye, who was sitting on his shoulders, couldn't see? Before Eunuch Li sent someone, Xuan Ye asked him first: "What's the matter with those two people?"

The little eunuch in front had already come to report: "Your Majesty, it was Jue Chan from Yikun Palace who promised to kneel on the side of the road with the maid."

"Juechan agreed?" Xuanye frowned, he could hardly remember who it was, when Jianyu arrived beside them, he saw the embarrassment of the two of them carefully, he was even more inexplicable, and said angrily, "What's going on?"

Xianghe on the side cried out in fright, Jue Chan held her down to keep her from crying, brushed her hair up, unintentionally revealing five finger prints on her face, but replied calmly and inappropriately: "Chenqie and Xianghe Passing by here, I met Guo Guiren. Guo Guiren said that the emperor turned over her sign tonight. The concubine said that he saw the emperor went to Chengqian Palace. Rubbing with Xianghe, let's kneel here and wait until it gets dark before going back."

Xuan Ye sneered: "I'm just going to see the fourth elder brother." Then he looked at Eunuch Li, who said awkwardly, "Long live Lord Shengming, I have only heard about it a few times, Guo Guiren has a bad temper, but fortunately Empress Yipin has always taught me that today's matter, it's hard for a slave to talk about it."

"Did I turn over Guo Luoluo's brand tonight?" Xuanye himself didn't quite remember Yinzhen's illness.

Mr. Li is such an astute person, and he immediately said: "I'm afraid Guo Guiren made a mistake, or the subordinate servant's message was biased. The servant must investigate and punish. Long Live Lord doesn't have to worry about these things. Isn't it a good idea to go to Xianfu Palace to warm up tonight?" Is your lady sitting there?"

Xuan Ye didn't take it seriously, thought for a while and said casually: "Tonight, I will be reviewing the papers in Qianqing Palace, let's go." While talking, he pointed to the person next to him, motioning for Eunuch Li to take care of him.

Jian Yu went back, and Yu Jia gradually walked away. Eunuch Li came and asked Jue Chan to go back, saying that he would find an imperial physician for her, but Jue Chan immediately thanked her: "The emperor's kindness, my father-in-law's kindness, I appreciate it. It's just that the six palaces get along the best. Yi Taiping, I'll just go back to rest and take a rest, I'll work hard to get the imperial physician, the empress Yipin will feel bad, one more thing is worse than one less thing."

Eunuch Li likes to deal with sensible people, no matter why Jue Chan appeared here, he is also willing to strike up a conversation with people who speak brightly and clearly, so he politely said a few words and chased Shengjia to Qianqing Palace.

Xianghe on the ground was so frightened that her legs were so weak that she couldn't get up, but Jue Chan calmly dragged her up, buttoned her loose collar neatly, fixed her crooked bun with hairpins, and even brought a thick layer of honey powder with her. He threw himself on his face to cover the scars, and then led Xianghe back to Yikun Palace. After entering the door, he saw a maid delivering hot water to Guo Guiren's room, knowing that it was a good time to take a bath in fragrant soup, so he quickly slipped back Go to the backyard, take off your clothes and lie still pretending to be sick.

"Master." The shocked Xianghe came back after washing her face, and seeing that Jue Chan promised to be lying comfortably, she was still full of doubts, and asked softly, "You have the guts to sneak out to stop him, why don't you dress up nicely?" , so that the emperor can catch it at a glance?"

Jue Chan's face was burning hot, so Xianghe asked Xianghe to take a look in the mirror, and was relieved to see that there was no broken skin, so he said with a sigh of relief: "After Empress De concubine left the palace, many people competed for beauty. I don't care. I didn't go to Bo Chong today, but I just wanted to ruin Guo Guiren's good deeds. When the emperor came back, he turned around and left without even entering the main hall door, because he saw me kneeling in the yard. The emperor might not remember that I was just That person, but he can't be wrong to hate the abuse in the harem."

"Then..." Xianghe wanted to ask, but hesitated and didn't say it.

Jue Chan smiled helplessly: "You want to ask me, do you want the emperor to fancy you?"

Xianghe lowered her head and muttered: "Otherwise, how would you get out of here?"

Jue Chan handed her the mirror, and lay down on his side, feeling pain in his heart, wanting to leave here would have to betray his own heart, but she was not afraid of anything, only that Rong Ruo misunderstood that she had changed her mind .
