Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

Jue Chan's complexion was pale due to illness, he leaned on the bed and gave Concubine Hui a cold look, then turned his head and said: "The concubine is sick, it's not suitable to see each other, my lady, please go back."

"What's wrong with you?" Concubine Hui was puzzled, with anger on her brows, "Why is it so sick that I can't even talk to you properly?"

Jue Chan turned sideways, very arrogant and rude, as if he didn't take concubine Hui seriously, or he didn't care that he would be disrespectful, so he just said: "The concubine is sick and weak, really can't chat with the empress, the empress Please come back."

After that, no matter what Concubine Hui asked or said, Jue Chan ignored it, and finally opened her mouth, but only told Concubine Hui to leave quickly. There is one thing that is a hidden worry, but if you think about it, you don't understand who would say it if Jue Chan knew it.

Outside the house, Xianghe was busy serving tea to Concubine Hui, Baoyun followed her for a few glances, smiled and gave her some pointers, and became familiar with her after coming and going, so Baoyun asked casually: "Juechan is always there. How did you get sick? Is it because the weather is hot and cold?"

Xianghe's hands were busy, probably because she was tired from serving her illness and felt resentful, so she said unconsciously: "I often serve her lightly and have a fixed daily routine, and I do my best to serve her. I really don't know when she will catch cold. Concubine Wen The lady was fine when she invited my master to have a meal with her before she went out, but she cried for most of the night for some reason, and then she became ill the next day, until now, the imperial physician has not seen any way to do it."

The tea was ready when I said this, and the two came together, but seeing Concubine Hui go out angrily, Xiang He said timidly: "Is the empress leaving, would you like a cup of tea?"

"What tea do you want?" Concubine Hui was very annoyed, but when she thought that this was the Xianfu Palace after all, all the people around Concubine Wen had left, so she quickly restrained her emotions and said generously, "Take care of your family often, Wen The imperial concubine is not at home, if you need anything, just come to Changchun Palace and say something."

Xianghe didn't dare to keep her, so she sent them out respectfully, the sun was scorching hot, even holding an umbrella was useless, concubine Hui was in a bad mood, and all the way back, when she passed by the gate of Yikun Palace, she saw concubine Yi Help Tao Hong to walk outside.

When they met each other, Concubine Yi was generous, and said with a smile: "Long time no see, sister, why don't you sit on the shoulders in such a hot day, heat stroke is not good."

The two did not turn against each other, of course Concubine Hui also had a good face, and asked her: "Why did you come out, did the imperial doctor say you are in good health?"

Concubine Yi's body has not recovered, her pale face seemed not afraid of the poisonous sun, she even looked up at the sun and said: "The imperial doctor asked me to come out to bask in the sun, the time can't be long, half a moment is enough, there is a draft here, stand Cool off. I'm about to go back, would my sister go in and have a cup of tea?"

Counting the days, Mrs. Guo's seventh day has already passed, and there are few people in the palace nowadays, Concubine Hui didn't have to worry any more, so she came up and took Concubine Yi to the door, only to hear her say: "When the Emperor came back from Changrui Mountain, he also said Waiting for me to deliver soup in summer, but suddenly I went to avoid the summer heat, could it be that I am ready to be sent to Yingtai every day? The sun has passed all the way, and it will be rotten."

Hearing what she said, Concubine Hui knew that she felt uncomfortable, so she could only persuade: "After your health recovers, where can't you go?"

Yipin smiled wryly: "I heard that my sister has also been to Yingtai? I have been in the palace for so many years, but I haven't been there yet. I have always lived in the Forbidden City, and I was suffocated to death."

In addition, Yingtai was built by Ming Chengzu Zhu Di. It was originally named Nantai. During the Shunzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, Shunzhi changed its name to Yingtai after taking the meaning of fairyland on earth.Yingtai is surrounded by the water, the mountains, rocks, flowers, plants, sky and water are the same color, and the pavilions and pavilions are resplendent, just like fairy islands in the sea, so it is a holy place for summer vacation.This time the emperor invited the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager to come here to escape the summer heat, and planned to hold a banquet in July to celebrate the victory of the San Francisco. It is estimated that she will come back after the Mid-Autumn Festival. Yipin said that she has only lived in the Forbidden City, but Lan Qi has two people in a row. Years, do not spend the summer in the palace.

This trip is accompanied by the prince and princess, the crown prince and eldest elder brother read and write as usual every day, and the third elder brother and Rong Xian follow the concubine Duan. Miss my mother.The other princes and princesses still live with their mothers or are taken care of by the nurses of the elder brothers. Here, except for the place where they live, the rules are not as big as in the palace, and everything remains the same.

And the emperor never slackens in listening to the government, the ministers' memorials are sent to Yingtai every day, others only think that the emperor spends the summer, and he must be leisurely and carefree, but in fact Xuanye works hard day and night, just like in the palace.

Lan Qi came with her, and most of the time she served in front of the Empress Dowager, because Concubine Tong and Concubine Wen were also accompanying her, so it was impossible for Xuan Ye to treat her exclusively. Fortunately, Lan Qi didn't care too much about it. She lived in the house, and the two talked and laughed, and there were several times of sweetness that were not enough to be understood by outsiders.

It rained heavily that day, and Lan Qi left Xuan Ye's side. She was going to the Empress Dowager, but halfway through the stormy storm made it difficult for her to move forward. Eighth brother.Because of the lightning and thunder, the eighth elder brother kept crying, but when Concubine Wen heard that Concubine De was hiding from the rain outside, she went to the door and said, "Come in and sit. If you hide from the rain outside like this, people still think I won't let you." Come in, the rain won't stop for a while, come and help me coax Eighth Brother."

After entering the door as a last resort, Dongyun led the maids to dry off the water on Empress Depin, and brought a bowl of ginger tea. Asked: "Why does he keep crying?"

Lan Qi didn't come over to take a look, she just sat and waited outside, and soon the eighth elder brother's crying stopped, and Concubine Wen came out tiredly, but she asked Dong Yun to drink herbal tea in spite of the heavy rain.

"When will this child stop crying? Is sixth elder brother still like this?" Concubine Wen asked wearily, and said to herself, "Eighth elder brother always cries when he comes. I should have known better to keep him in the palace." Li didn't bring it."

Lan Qi remained silent, she kept watching the rain outside, she just wanted to leave quickly, after they drove to Yingtai, they lived separately, Lan Qi visited everywhere, even the residence of Concubine Tong Gui brought six Brother has been there, but he has never been to Concubine Wen's place.

"It's just nonsense. When I went out, Jue Chan was often there and fell ill. No one took care of my eighth elder brother, and the emperor would not agree." Concubine Wen was still muttering about the child. Seeing that Lan Qi was absent-minded, suddenly He laughed, "Do you know why Jue Chan got sick?"

Lan Qi was stunned, her eyes met Concubine Wen, her smile was a little smug, but she couldn't figure out why she was happy, she could only shake her head: "The concubine has never cared about Jue Chan's constant presence, not to mention that she is a concubine who is a concubine. Ju, if the empress doesn’t know, the concubines don’t even know.”

Concubine Wen loosened her collar to breathe, picked up the round fan and shook it lightly, with a smile on her face: "Of course I know why she is sick." Just as Dongyun brought herbal tea, she waved to the maids to go elsewhere, Huanchun followed Lan Qi , Seeing this situation, I had to leave.

Only Lan Qi and Concubine Wen were left in the room. The former felt a little restless, but Concubine Wen suddenly approached intimately, sat very close to Lan Qi, and whispered: "I'll tell you a secret, listen to it before you leave the palace. Yes, it's just unbelievable."

Lan Qi regretted why she didn't go back despite the wind and rain, and she didn't know what troublesome things to listen to now, but when she had to listen to Concubine Wen's so-called "secret", she felt a chill on her back, and she was confused for a while, Leaving the seat and kneeling, begged Concubine Wen: "If the concubine has spoken offensively, please forgive me, but please listen to the concubine's words about this matter. It is about Jue Chan's reputation and the emperor's reputation , you can no longer tell others."

Concubine Wen clicked her tongue: "Get up quickly, because you feel that Chan and Nalan Rongruo are still in love, and it's not you. Why are you so nervous? What's more, what happened to their childhood sweethearts when they were young is not a secret, but no one asked about it. Just get up."

Lan Qi was worried. She had warned Jue Chan before, just as Concubine Wen said at this moment, their past was not a secret, but no one mentioned it, but once it was mentioned, it would be a disaster if they couldn't keep it.

Concubine Wen said to herself: "I didn't believe it at first. I had dinner with her before going out. Speaking of Nalan Rongruo bringing back a woman from the south of the Yangtze River to keep in a private house, Mingzhu found out that she was furious. At that time, she had a very serious face. Ugly, I heard crying at night, and fell ill the next morning. Thinking about her, she is really pitiful, no wonder she told me that she is in awe of the emperor, and dare not even look at his face."

Lan Qi was terrified when she heard it, but remembering what she said to Jue Chan that day, she forced herself to calm down. She said that she would not care about it, and she couldn't let this kind of thing hold her back.

"No wonder she is so beautiful. The emperor obviously liked her, but she suddenly threw it to me and ignored her, but she didn't have any heart to favor her." Concubine Wen sighed, "Other women in the palace are not very good-looking. It's always strange that she is like a fairy, but her heart is calm, but now she understands it. Her heart is not in Long live Lord at all."

Lan Qi looked up and saw that the dark clouds had cleared outside, knowing that a shower of rain was about to pass, she got up to say goodbye, but Concubine Wen followed behind and said, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone anymore, not everyone in this palace I can speak my mind, I understand."

Lan Qi looked back at her, blessed her body and said: "The concubine didn't hear what the empress said just now. What the concubine said, please don't take it to heart. The rain stopped, and the concubine is leaving."

Concubine Wen said: "Concubine Hui always sneaks up to talk to Mrs. Jue Chan. Although I don't associate with anyone, I know Concubine Hui is a scheming person. You have to be careful of her."

Lan Qi was puzzled, but Concubine Wen smiled lightly: "Although I hope the emperor will come to see me more and not you, but I won't harm you, but I can't be sure what others think. The emperor said he would help The fact that I was subcontracted after checking the medicine shows that it wasn't the emperor who prevented me from conceiving, so I don't know whose idea it is, you look at the palace, how sinister are people's hearts?"
