Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

Taohong supported Yipin, she staggered and struggled, this was the first day, and there were two more days of punishment waiting for her, and there was no fixed number of days for self-examination, and the days to come were uncertain, and I was very worried. It was uncomfortable, but when I entered the door, I saw Guo Guiren standing in the yard with Princess Kejing in his arms, and said with a smile: "My sister has been wronged, why do you say you are doing it, it's all right now, both of us sisters have been locked up, this Yikun It's really unlucky for the palace, that little slut got spoiled and became pregnant as soon as he left, so it can be seen that our Feng Shui is really not very good here."

Concubine Yi stared blankly at her own younger sister, remembering hearing a few gossips, saying that Concubine Zhao at that time complained that her sister was too weak, and envied Guo Luoluo's second young lady who was lively and smart, but look at it now, Concubine Wen The empress found the way she should live and lived a good life in the palace, but her younger sister, who was praised for being lively and clever, became vicious and mean, treating others like this, and she was also rude to her own sister.

"Tao Hong." Yi Pin said, she stood still and let go of Tao Hong's hand, and immediately said, "Go and bring the princess here."

"master?"

"Go and bring the princess here." Yipin sternly said, and ordered the people beside her, "Go and help Taohong bring the princess here."

"Sister, what do you want to do?" Guo Guiren was in a hurry, and when she called out, Kejing cried out in fright, but the court ladies had already come up to snatch the child. It was too late to hate her, who would come up to help, Kejing was quickly snatched away, Guo Guiren also fell to the ground, Yipin patted the princess and coaxed her, let Taohong carry her away first, and supported the girl next to her The little maid went back slowly.

But after only two steps, Guo Guiren got up and blocked Taohong. Before she could speak, Yipin yelled at her: "What are you doing in a daze? Take the princess to the main hall."

Guo Guiren rushed over like crazy and asked, "What are you doing, are you coming to snatch my child if you can't see it? Are we still sisters?"

"Sister? Is this how you speak to your sister?" Yipin said coldly, "What do you mean by robbing your child? Isn't Kejing my daughter? Why can she stay in Yikun Palace? The emperor gave me to raise him, but you, a little nobleman, what qualifications do you have to raise the princess?"

"elder sister!"

"Shut up, don't let me hear you yelling again." Yipin supported the maid beside her and continued walking, saying, "The emperor told you not to come out of his room, I let you be soft-hearted." Hang around here, listen carefully, from now on until the emperor orders to forgive you, you are not allowed to leave the side hall, otherwise, I will deal with you with the power of the lord of the first palace."

"Sister, I'm your own sister." Guo Guiren rushed over, but was blocked by other court ladies.

Concubine Yi didn't even look at her, and ordered in a cold voice: "Send Guo Guiren back to the house, and if she beats and scolds the court ladies and eunuchs at will, she will report to me. Long Live Lord hates lynching and abuse in the harem the most. , Yikun Palace can't tolerate it either."

As she spoke, she went straight to the main hall, and asked someone to close the door after entering. The screaming of her younger sister gradually stopped, and she could only hear Kejing's cry inside. She listened blankly. The last time she heard Yinqi cry , or when he was born, she has never heard what the child's cry is like now.

"Why did the empress dowager treat me like this?" Yipin slumped on the ground limply, knelt for half an hour with severe pain in her knees, fell down and couldn't get up again, she simply fell on the ground and cried loudly, with one hand on her stomach , thinking that she once lost a child, thinking that Yinqi had never seen her mother properly, tears couldn't stop falling, she can't live like this for the rest of her life, she wants to have her own child by her side, she doesn't want to be like Concubine Zhao Jealous woman.

Tao Hong came out after placing the princess, saw her fall on the ground, came to help her, and persuaded: "Master, don't cry, after a few days, you go to the empress dowager and the empress dowager to admit your mistakes, the emperor always takes care of you, you It takes confidence."

With tears in her eyes, Yipin pulled Taohong and asked, "What should I do..."

The Forbidden City is so big, no matter how much you cry in the Yikun Palace, you can’t hear it from outside. Before lunch, Lan Qi came to the Palace of Compassion with Yinzuo in her arms. , I was very happy to see Yin Zuo trembling and able to stand up.

The old man actually played with his little grandson on the kang like a child, and walked with him pretendingly, Yin Zuo was very excited, and chirped for a long time, but it turned out that it was time for lunch, and he still pestered his great-grandmother , Whoever came to pick him up would pout and cry. The Empress Dowager felt distressed and happy, and in turn reprimanded Lan Qi: "Don't pester me to eat, I'm not hungry, wait until my little darling is hungry."

Lan Qi persuaded her a few times but was turned back. Although Yinzuo didn't understand what the lord said, she laughed happily. After a while, she was hungry and started looking for a wet nurse for milk. The Empress Dowager was free now. Come to eat, so coincidentally, it is said that the emperor is coming.

Xuan Ye felt cold when he entered the door, and said that it was snowing again, and saw that the imperial grandmother was eating at this hour, and said happily: "The grandson hasn't eaten yet, thinking that if he can't come here, I will ask for a bowl of rice and make tea I didn’t expect to have good food after eating.”

Aunt Su Mala made fun of it: "The sixth elder brother must have known that Huang Ama was coming to eat, so he deliberately pestered the great grandma, and he dragged it until this hour."

Xuan Ye was pleased and joked: "Yin Zuo loves his Ama the most." Seeing that Lan Qi gave him a hand stove to keep him warm, he asked, "Where is the child?"

"Elsewhere, the nurse is breastfeeding." Lan Qi responded, but Xuan Ye made a show of flirting with her and said, "Go and see the baby, I'll take it for a while and have a look."

Lan Qi understood, and guessed that Xuan Ye had something to say to the Empress Dowager and she was not convenient to be around, so she excused herself to go and see Yin Zuo and left. When the old man saw it, she blamed Xuan Ye: "You sent her to do it at this time. What, she didn't even eat a bite."

But the person had already left. Xuanye sat down and warmed himself with a bowl of hot milk, and then he ate when he was so hungry. After eating a whole bowl of minced chicken porridge and deep-fried three fresh spring rolls, he put down his chopsticks and asked for tea to rinse his mouth, when he heard Xuan Ye say, "If Grandmother is finished eating, my grandson has something to tell you."

The Empress Dowager calmly rinsed her mouth, and asked Madam Su Mala to serve the emperor to wash up, and then she left the dining table with him, went into the Nuan Pavilion and sat down, saying: "I guess you have something to do, tell me, what's the trouble?" gone?"

Xuan Ye smiled: "It's not troublesome, I just want to ask the emperor's grandmother for a show."

The Empress Dowager looked at her grandson and asked him to sit on the kang as well, thinking about the recent events in her heart, she frowned slightly and asked, "Could it be because of what happened this morning?"

Xuan Ye smiled wryly and nodded: "The emperor's grandmother is Shengming."

In addition, when Xuanye knew about Yipin, the court meeting had already ended, and he called Director Li to ask if Lan Qi had returned to Yonghe Palace safely, and asked whether Maitreya Buddha had been sent out, etc., and Director Li inadvertently mentioned Only after learning about Yikun Palace did he know that Yipin had messed up and was punished by the emperor's grandmother to kneel for three days.

At that time, I was a little upset, but I calmed down and thought about it, and then thought about the poisoning of the elder brother in the Mid-Autumn Festival. If I could do a little thing to change the direction of the harem, it would be beneficial to the people I cherish, in the harem, and in the court. After finishing the work at hand, he came to the Compassionate Ning Palace to ask the emperor's grandmother for a hint.

"The other day you said that Yipin lost her child in the past because of you. If you want to say whether the medicine for tigers and wolves in those purses is really effective, it is the fate of her and that child. At that time, she was too young. It’s possible that you can’t keep it.” The Empress Dowager obviously disliked this matter, and before Xuan Ye could open her mouth, she said quietly, “Can you guarantee that she won’t be successful? You don’t know what she has done and what she has thought about?”

Xuan Ye had a well-thought-out plan: "The grandson will not make anyone successful. They are just concubines in the harem, so what will happen? What's more, there are always noble concubines and concubines still there, and they can't get over it. Grandmother, grandson can't just Doting on Lan Qi, grandson doesn't just dote on her, there can be many concubines in the harem, but Lan Qi only has one, what happened in the past can never happen again."

The Empress Dowager frowned, her eyes did not meet Xuan Ye's, in her heart it was better to have one thing more than one thing less, but after all, it was Xuan Ye who paid for it, whether he likes it or not, he has to bite the bullet and go It would be really meaningless to level a few bowls of water, and to hinder him without actually helping him or the harem.

"You can do it after you think about it. I understand here. If you get angry afterwards, it's not directed at you. What else can we grandparents and grandchildren say that we can't say in person, and we have to borrow others' mouths?" Mrs. The Empress Dowager finally smiled, and reached out to pat Xuan Ye's shoulder affectionately, "Don't blame the imperial grandmother for being troublesome, even if you are almost 30 years old now, in the eyes of the imperial grandmother, you are still that seven or eight-year-old little doll, always bear I can't stop thinking about you."

There was a warm smile on Xuan Ye's face, but his heart was agitated, and he remembered something again. He looked sideways and saw that there were no outsiders around him, so he said softly to his grandmother: "Brother's matter has already come to an end, imperial grandmother, grandson I don’t want to speak out to anyone, and I will definitely put pressure on it secretly, but I will never let others know, after all, it involves too much, and my grandson doesn’t want to see the prince bear a bad name.”

The face of the Empress Dowager who had only just smiled froze immediately, she stared straight at Xuan Ye, and said softly, "It really is Suo'etu?"

Xuan Ye nodded, and sneered: "Nothing can escape your eyes. At first, my grandson didn't want to believe it. They kept a low profile for so many years. Why did they start to make moves at this juncture, but when I checked next, I still found their head Now, grandson doesn't believe me and sent another group of people to investigate. The news I heard this morning is the same. Grandmother, grandson's heart is chilling. If Queen Hesheli is here, what will happen now? So Yipin I can't be ignored, I can't let those people point all their fingers at the Yonghe Palace, Lan Qi doesn't even have a relative who is behind the scenes, only I can protect her."

The Empress Dowager smiled helplessly: "Listen, why does it seem that it is only for her? What about the crown prince, noble concubine, and concubine Wen?"

Xuan Ye was a little embarrassed, lowered his eyes and smiled: "The prince is different, and the imperial concubine is even more different. The imperial grandmother should not make fun of her grandson."

"Who made fun of you?" The Empress Dowager was relieved, but she pointed to an open space ahead, where she had set up a stool to press the petite Wuya Lanqi back then, and whipped her on her body, the Empress Dowager I have never given such a severe punishment to a servant in my life, but in order to settle the words of the former court officials, so that the emperor and her can come down to power, and sacrifice a weak woman, thinking about it now, I still feel embarrassed. Ye said, "Lan Qi was beaten here, I let her remember the pain at that time for the rest of her life, Xuan Ye, you remember it too, look at your current mental strategy, and think about yourself at that time, right? Feel stupid and incompetent?"

Xuan Ye was also moved, couldn't help leaving his seat and knelt down and said to the imperial grandmother: "My grandson will inherit the teachings of the imperial grandmother until today."

When she said this, Lan Qi happened to come in with Yin Zuo in her arms, and seeing the emperor kneeling, she was about to kneel too, but was brought in by Xuan Ye, who smiled angrily: "Fool, I'm talking to the emperor's grandmother, and I'm talking to you!" What do you have to do with it?"

Lan Qi pursed her lips and ignored him, hugged Yinzuo who was already asleep to the Empress Dowager, and said with a smile: "It's getting heavier and heavier, the wet nurse is really hard, she won't sleep unless she hugs her, the wet nurse is so weak Your body will be exhausted sooner or later."

"You say you're stupid and don't admit it, which wet nurse is not carefully selected, and has more experience in raising children than you? They all have a sense of propriety." Xuan Ye said, clumsily trying to show his eyes in front of the imperial grandmother, and stretched out his hand Wanting to hug her son, Lan Qi seized the opportunity to fight back, "Your Majesty, I don't want to hug a child anymore, you don't know how to hug a child, you insist on joining in the fun, and you finally fall asleep and wake up later, the Empress Dowager can't take a nap either."

Xuan Ye had no choice but to stare at her, making the Empress Dowager laugh: "You two are bickering, I can't take a nap." Then he reprimanded Lan Qi, "Nonsense, when will you teach the emperor a lesson, next time you don't know what to do. Let Su Ma slap your mouth."

Lan Qi was not convinced and did not dare to talk back, she shrank beside the Empress Dowager and did not speak, Xuan Ye could not stay for long, she still had a lot of things to do, she told Lan Qi to take good care of the Empress Dowager, and left soon.

The Empress Dowager said she didn't want to go to bed, so she lay on the kang for a while, Xiao Yinzuo lay on the side to sleep, she leaned lazily, Lan Qi sat behind and rubbed her waist and legs, the mother and daughter chatted leisurely, The empress dowager gradually said: "There will be more and more concubines in the harem, and there will be other people who will attract the emperor's liking. You should be more open-minded. I really feel wronged. Think about it, he was drunk. Which one does he think about every now and then, who is really on his mind?"

At that time, Lan Qi agreed with all her heart, but she didn't expect what would happen afterwards. Until the next morning, when Concubine Yi knelt in front of Yikun Palace for half an hour, the emperor went there in a warm sedan chair, and personally Helping the person who was punished to appease, you said something like this through the mouths of the concubine Duan and the cloth nobles, and she suddenly understood the intention of the empress dowager's words, and her heart was indeed sour. But think about it again as the empress dowager said, and feel relieved to some extent.
