Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

The next day, the imperial hospital was ordered to go to Yikun Palace. Concubine Yi suddenly fell ill with typhoid fever. The disease was severe. Although it was not life-threatening, it took more than a month to recover. At first, the empress dowager did not seem to believe it. Out of good intentions, he sent his confidant imperial physician to take a look, but it turned out that he was indeed ill, and the old man sighed: "She must have been scared out of it by herself."

But today, it was supposed to be a good day for Concubine Hui. After so many years, she finally got her wish to be in charge of the Sixth Palace. They moved in happily, but because they couldn't make extravagant banquets, they only set up refreshments for Liu Gong. Even Lan Qi, Concubines Rong, and Concubines Duan arrived at the occasion. When everyone was sitting around talking, it was said that Madam Su Ma from the Palace of Compassionate Ning was coming. up.

Thinking that the Empress Dowager gave the reward, everyone came out with concubine Hui to greet her, but when the mother came in, she smiled and said, "Why are you all coming out, all the maids and servants?"

Concubine Hui personally supported her to take the seat, and said with a smile: "Long Live Lord is respectful when he sees you, how can we disrespect the nanny, don't say Zhesha, please take the seat, what kind of empress and master, we are all Your junior."

But the mother laughed: "I won't sit down anymore, the slaves have to go back to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, to congratulate the empress on her housewarming, and to pass on the will of the Empress Dowager."

When Concubine Hui heard this, she hurriedly bowed her knees to accept the order, the mother stopped her and said: "You don't need to kneel to accept the order, it's just a sentence, look at it, empress." As the mother spoke, three court ladies came up behind , the first one is about [-] years old, and the quality of clothing is not low, and the two little girls in the back are at most teens, and their faces are still full of childishness.

The nanny ordered them to kowtow to Concubine Hui, and she said, "The empress dowager said that the maids around you are all too young. In the early years, the good ones who were old or sick or went out of the palace all left. I always wanted to give you Pick a few more good ones to send, because you are virtuous and have nothing to do, so she always turns around and forgets. Right now, I just want to congratulate you on entering the Changchun Palace. A quick and capable person, Baoyun is older than you, very stable, I have already informed the respect room, and let her be the maid in charge of the Changchun Palace from now on, so that you can take good care of everyone up and down. As for you In the past, the little maids around me stayed to do other things, anyway, the Changchun Palace is so big, there is not more than one person to clean it."

When Concubine Rong heard this, she immediately laughed and yelled at the side: "Nurse, has the Empress Dowager rewarded me with any good people?"

The nanny smiled: "Ji Xin is fine, stable and capable, what's wrong, did you make a mistake recently and made you unhappy?" Then she called Ji Xin jokingly to come over and admonish her, "Serve Rong Concubine well, and then hear the master say If you are not good, I will send you to the Department of Punishment to be punished."

In fact, Concubine Rong's words were meant to relieve Concubine Hui's embarrassment, and Concubine Hui probably didn't know how ugly she looked when she watched the three of Baoyun kneel and kowtow.The person who has always been the most dignified can show such a surprised and disappointed expression in front of others. Fortunately, everyone else is behind her, and only Concubine Rong can see it.

And Madam Su Mala is such a smart person, she would agree with Concubine Rong whenever she teased her, naturally the matter of the maid of honor was not for Concubine Rong, the Empress Dowager didn't need to put anyone beside her clearly.

Ji Xin was also excited, and after being reprimanded by the nanny, she joked: "Sister Baoyun, why don't you go to Jingyang Palace the day after tomorrow, my master doesn't want me anymore, I beg your concubine Hui to take in your slaves."

Concubine Hui quickly smiled and said, "You girl, Baoyun was rewarded to me by the Empress Dowager, you are so courageous, you dare to disobey the will of the Empress Dowager, go back with your master, and live well in the future Jingyang Palace has set up refreshments, invite me to eat."

After all, concubine Hui asked Baoyun to take the other two maids to get to know the original people around her, and Baoyun will be the top eunuchs and maids of the Changchun Palace in the future, and those little ones dare not make mistakes. Mammy said she was going back to the palace, and everyone rushed to send it out, and then the women barely talked, and they all dispersed before lunch.

On the way back, Lan Qi, Bu Guiren, and Dai Jiashi led the children to frolick in the front, while Concubine Rong and Concubine Duan walked behind, the two were silent for a long time, Concubine Duan finally persuaded: "Sister, you must understand in your heart , even for the sake of the third elder brother, you must do things properly, don't one day, the empress dowager will not give you face in public like this."

As Duan Cong said, the Empress Dowager gave Concubine Hui more manpower, but in fact she slapped Concubine Hui severely in public. The women in the palace are not smart, no matter whether they know what Concubine Hui is planning Even the three who were frolicking in front of them must have understood that Concubine Hui was being targeted by the Empress Dowager.

In the future, she will be like Concubine Tong, she will no longer be able to do whatever she wants, at least for one day in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, all movements in the Palace of Changchun will be restricted, and if Concubine Hui dares to get rid of Baoyun, she will be as good as she was back then. Tong Guowei persuaded his daughter that without Qinglian and Zilian and Honglian, as long as the superiors don't let go, they will be regarded as dead in this life.

"Even if she is capable of wooing Baoyun, what about the other two little girls? If she is capable, all three of them will be subdued?" Concubine Duan sneered, "Furthermore, these three were clearly sent. Inside, does she know who was sent secretly? Even Baoyun dare not mess around, since Qinglian followed the imperial concubine, how much Chengqian Palace has calmed down?"

Concubine Rong finally spoke out wearily: "Anyone who understands understands that her face has been lost for so many years, and I have to be careful when talking to her in the future. You are right, she still has the Pearl Mansion behind her anyway. Just pointing to this point of face is noble."

"Now Concubine Yi is ill, Concubine Hui is being watched closely, and Concubine Tong and Concubine Wen seem to have changed. Two nobles died back and forth, and they have been making trouble for the past few years." Concubine Duan pulled Concubine Rong to stand still. , pointing to Lan Qi who was playing quietly and frolicking in front of her, "That one is the one we should rely on, although we are all from the palace maids, but she has a golden spoon in her mouth, or a golden spoon that most people can't see. "

Concubine Rong stared intently at the lively and warm scene ahead, a layer of mist gradually formed in the corners of her eyes, helplessly unwilling, "Everyone is human, why can she get everything without fighting or grabbing, how long will God bless her? Your Majesty I've never cared so much about someone before, why did I go to Chengqian Palace, and the next day I gave her a ostentatious meal in Yonghe Palace, just afraid that we would underestimate her at 01:30, I'm afraid I can't wait to put it in our eyeballs to keep our talents Okay, but when we were serving, when did the emperor treat us like this?"

Concubine Duan persuaded: "Sister, how many years have passed, why are you not reconciled now?"

Concubine Rong choked up: "It's not reconciled, it's uncomfortable. Don't tell me you don't have feelings for the emperor anymore? I still think about him wholeheartedly. I can't sleep every night, so I can only think about the past. I really want to Going back to the past, even if it was just a court lady, even if it was just a small promise, but back then there was no Wuya Lanqi, not even Queen Hesheli, only you and me..."

"Don't cry." Seeing Concubine Rong say something sad, Concubine Duan was overwhelmed with fright, "How about alarming them, don't cry."

While frolicking in the front, I heard Rong Xian suddenly say: "Why is my mother crying?"

A few people hurriedly turned around to see that Rong Xian ran all the way over, threw himself into his mother's arms and asked, "Why are you crying, Er Niang, what's wrong with you, Er Niang?"

Concubine Rong hurriedly restrained her tears, smiled with tears, coaxed her daughter and said: "Emiang is not crying, don't talk nonsense, let's go, your brother has to wait in Yonghe Palace."

But Lan Qi had also come over, and Bu Guiren and Dai Changzai were very worried, because they saw that Concubine Rong had wiped away her tears and stopped crying, and it was difficult for them to ask. Seeing this situation, Concubine Rong could only forcefully explain, "I saw you from behind. Frolicking, thinking that the children have grown up in the blink of an eye, I can’t help but feel uncomfortable when I think of the ones that are gone. It’s really okay, let’s go back quickly, Yinzhi may bully Yinzuo in Yonghe Palace. "

Hearing Concubine Rong's words, Lan Qi and Lady Bugui believed them, said a few words of comfort, and went to Yonghe Palace together. There is no banquet in Changchun Palace today, but they gathered in Yonghe Palace. When they were in the palace, they were very worried when they came, for fear of hindering the Lord Long Live, so when the emperor was not in the palace for half a month, she asked Lan Qi to entertain them well.

Lan Qi agreed as if she had been taken advantage of, and she even made round the refreshments for Concubine Rong the day after tomorrow to entertain the guests. Now everyone went back to the palace to sit down and prepare to eat, but Mrs. Bu deliberately said that the dishes were too ordinary. Lan Qi was anxious and said that she could How much money is there, but Huan Chun, who betrayed her master, said that she celebrated the sixth elder brother's birthday last time, and the money rewarded by the emperor had not been spent yet, so Concubine Duan asked her to count it out, chatting and laughing, Concubine Rong's mood gradually faded. That's okay too.

Two days later, the Jingyang Palace welcomed a new master. The Empress Dowager rewarded a pair of screens instead of the palace maids. People who knew the inside thought that Concubine Hui would not come, but she still came dignifiedly, joking and joking with everyone, Bao Yun also went in and out of each other, and the two of them did not show any signs of birth. People who didn't know saw it, and they were only masters and servants who had been in love for more than ten years.

At this time, the emperor led the crown prince to the Changrui Mountain Palace. There are still many sacrifices and other important matters before the two empresses enter the mausoleum. They need to stay in the palace for ten days. What Ye cared about, and besides, it was a rare day like this, when only the father and son were together, Xuan Ye let his son live and eat with him every day.

At dinner time that day, the prince came to invite the emperor to have a meal. Because people from the palace came to report everything, he stood outside the door and waited for a while, when he heard a loud voice saying: "The empress dowager, Wanan, say Please don't forget about it, Long Live Lord. The Queen Mother, Wan An, said that the wind is strong on the mountain, please take care of the dragon's body..."

Standing outside the door, listening boredly, looking up and counting the sprouts on the branches, suddenly heard the voice of the father, he was asking: "How is the concubine of Yonghe Palace? When I left the palace, she coughed a few times. Have you asked the imperial doctor?" ?”

The prince frowned on his small face, suddenly turned around and entered the door, and said with a smile: "Huang Ama, it's time for dinner."
