Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

But the Empress Dowager said that managing the six palaces takes painstaking efforts. Now that Lan Qi is young, she still has a lot of youth to accompany Xuan Ye. If she is in good health, she will naturally have more children. Producing good sons and daughters, let Xuanye not have to worry about the affairs of the Sixth Palace for the time being. Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong are not yet addicted to the position of concubine, so it is not appropriate to weaken their power to avoid further troubles.

Xuan Ye deeply felt that the imperial grandmother was very thoughtful, so he followed what the grandmother said, and was not in a hurry to let Lan Qi touch the matter of the Six Palaces.But he left the Cining Palace and did not return to Qianqing Palace, but came to the Sixth East Palace. He thought the emperor was going to Chengqian Palace or Yonghe Palace, but Shengjia bypassed these two places and came straight to Jingyang Palace .

When I entered the door, I heard Yinzhi's crying, and even Rong Xian cried and shouted: "Don't beat Er Niang, don't beat her." For those who are celebrating the New Year, it is really disturbing to hear such crying. stop.

Concubine Rong went to the door and bowed her knees to salute. Xuan Ye helped her up, and seeing her eyes were red, she couldn't help saying softly: "I'm afraid you won't feel comfortable, so I came to see you after leaving the imperial grandmother. I was so angry just now. It's not for you to say those words, I have to give face to the imperial concubine, and I can only wrong you."

When the emperor said this, Concubine Rong couldn't hold back even more, and Xuan Ye laughed and said: "I haven't seen you shed tears for many years, it hurts to see it, but don't cry, you are just teaching your son, you shed tears, they still don't want to cry." How are you convinced?"

Looking inside, you can see the siblings who usually fight each other tightly, Yinzhi weeps uncontrollably, Rongxian looks at his parents with his younger brother in his arms, Xuanye approaches them, Rongxian choked up and begged: "Huang Ama, Yinzhi is still young, it's because I didn't take good care of my younger brother. Let Erniang beat Erchen, and stop beating younger brother, okay?"

The ruler was crooked on the ground, Yin Zhi was crying pitifully, Xuan Ye pulled him out of Rong Xian's arms, opened his palm and saw that his left hand was indeed swollen with several red ribs, his right hand wanted to write, and he hit his left hand when he hit the palm, as Xuan Ye did when he was a child The emperor was even beaten by the emperor's grandmother. Naturally remembering how painful it was, she patted her son's head with a smile and said, "Ama doesn't like you crying, Erniang won't beat you anymore, isn't Ama here? Don't cry gone."

The little guy was so wronged, he really didn't do anything wrong today, it's just that the brothers lost their sense of proportion when playing together, he didn't damage the coral and emerald, and Yin Qi's injury had nothing to do with him, he was hurt for no reason After being scolded and beaten, I cried even more when I heard my father say this.Xuan Ye was not annoyed, and hugged and coaxed for a while, Concubine Rong was afraid that her son would really anger the emperor if he cried again, so she hurried up to let her daughter take her brother away.

"Rong Xian has the majesty and majesty of a princess, and the love of a sister for her younger siblings. You taught Rong Xian so well, how can I not trust Yin Zhi? Although he is young, he is an older brother, and he will inevitably suffer from it in the future." Some grievances." Xuan Ye pulled Concubine Rong to sit down, comforted her and said, "If my son is wronged, the mother will inevitably be wronged, but you remember, I will never wrong you. If it is like this today, then I will I regret it, but I thought I must come and see you first."

In the past ten years, although Concubine Rong was not as good as Wu Ya's today, she was one of the best women in the palace who could stay with the emperor for a long time. After so many years of love and so many children, the tacit understanding and harmony between them Affection, everyone understands in their hearts.But women are all stingy, and Concubine Rong is no exception. Over the years, she has accumulated some resentment in her heart. When she beat her son just now, she felt a little bit vented, and the smack was very heavy. Listen to Xuan Ye's words now , What should be vented, and what should be relieved, can't control the tears no matter what. After being made a few jokes by Xuan Ye, he slowly restrained himself.

"Yinzhi's temperament is softer, probably because he played with his sister since he was a child, and the concubine will teach him well." Concubine Rong wiped her tears and smiled softly, "Anyway, it's time to go to the study in two years. , the emperor can't blame the courtiers for taking care of them well."

Speaking of this, Xuan Ye said: "In order to appease Concubine Hui, the imperial grandmother said that children like the elder brother will live in the elder brother's study when they go to the study, and other princes will do the same in the future, but it is just a sentence, You don't have to worry, I am going to let Yinzhi follow you, and when I grow up, I will live in elder brother's house, and I will rest assured that you will teach my son."

Concubine Rong was very happy in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it on her face.At the beginning, she told Concubine Hui that she would be the same in the future, and she didn't want to be targeted only at Concubine Hui and the eldest son of the emperor. Now that Xuan Ye has personally agreed, she will not change easily. Don't worry.

Concubine Rong said gently: "Yinzhi is always the younger brother with Rong Xian, and he is indeed spoiled. In the future, my concubine will let him understand that he is an older brother."

Xuanye knew that there was no need to say any more, so he added a few words, gradually mentioning that he fasted in Jingshan in February, and then visited the mausoleum in the east, and asked Concubine Rong: "Concubine De's pregnancy is not safe. When I am not at home, Take care of her more, she has a bitter temper and doesn't say it easily, so you should pay more attention to it."

Concubine Rong pretended to be stingy: "One more word from the emperor, the concubine should be careful. The concubine treats Lan Qi like her own sister, so how can she not bother?"

Xuanye was very satisfied and laughed at her being hypocritical, but after Concubine Rong persuaded him to go to Chengqian Palace to see the imperial concubine, the emperor said: "I have given her enough face in front of everyone, but she has lost my face, does she know? "

Naturally, Shengjia will not come to Chengqian Palace today. The imperial concubine also understands that she has angered the emperor, but because she doesn't care about gold, silver and jade, in her cognition, it is really not something worth making a fuss about. I always feel that even if Yinzhen spends a lot of money in the future, she will still be able to support her son.

But the imperial concubine is neither stupid nor stupid. Of course she understands why the empress dowager and the emperor are angry. Although she can afford it, their Tong family has plenty of money, but Yinzhen is the prince of the Aixinjueluo family, and the Aixinjueluo family does not allow children She is extravagant and dissipated, she can't raise a profligate playboy, otherwise if she reprimands her a few times today, she might imprison her precious son in the clan's mansion in the future.

At this moment, the ruler is in hand, the imperial concubine is sitting cross-legged on the kang, and the little Yinzhen is sitting on the opposite side with her lips pouted wiping away tears. Just now, the little guy did not utter a word, the tears just fell. A lot, just don't open your mouth to cry.

"Stretch out your hand, there are still two more hits." The imperial concubine stared at her son, but Yinzhen hid her hands behind her back, shook her head and said, "Don't hit Er Niang."

"Stretch out your hand." The imperial concubine reiterated again, but Yinzhen refused anyway, she was impatient, she was already full of anger, she rushed over and pulled out her son's left hand, slapped her son twice, and there were red marks on her tender white hand , These two strokes were so painful that the little guy couldn't hold back, sobbed at the top of his voice, and crawled into his mother's arms to act coquettishly.

The imperial concubine herself was tearful, threw away the ruler in her hand, hugged her son and said, "Yinzhen, it's really not easy for Er Niang to take you. You are not Er Niang's son. Er Niang treats you well and treats you badly." Being pointed at by others, and your great-grandmother doesn't like Er Niang, it's really hard for Er Niang..."

This is the first time for the imperial concubine to say such words, but at this moment the fourth elder brother was crying loudly and did not hear it. Even if he heard it, he might not understand it. He is high-spirited, wiped away tears after crying for a while, held his son's hand and kissed again and again, kissed his cheek again to coax him, and said firmly: "Emiang will teach you well, our Yinzhen must be the best Prince."

After speaking, she ordered Qinglian: "Take away the things in the fourth elder brother's house, replace all the pearls and gemstones used to learn math, and go to the imperial garden to find some pebbles to replace them. Later, Chengqian Palace will ask for more Keep a low profile and take your time."

Things in the Palace of Compassion and Ning gradually spread to the Sixth Palace, and Lan Qi also heard about it more or less. The third elder brother and the fourth elder brother were given a ruler by the emperor and went home to be beaten. After patting a few times, she heard that the fourth elder brother also cried for a long time. She felt distressed when she heard it, but she said hard-heartedly: "Bad problems must be corrected, children will not succeed if they don't fight."

Huan Chun smiled and said: "Our Sixth Elder Brother met a mother like Master, who calculated that a copper coin would be broken into two halves since childhood, so he will never be beaten for these things in the future."

Lan Qi was angry and funny, pointed to the charcoal basin and said: "The red bamboo charcoal is still burning in a grand manner. I told you that you don't have any. I really want to ask Sister Rong to borrow a ruler and beat you guys well."

Xiangyue on the side smiled and said triumphantly: "This is the will of the Lord Long Live, the empress can't hit the servants."

Huan Chun scolded her: "What are you proud of? You broke a blue and white porcelain amphora yesterday. I haven't cleaned you up yet. All the treasures in the Yonghe Palace were all broken in your hands. Madam, don't you?" Just care about it, send you somewhere else to try?"

Xiangyue hurriedly pulled Lan Qi to ask for help, Lan Qi was overjoyed, the master and slave laughed together, no one was unhappy.After all, this matter is a good thing for Lan Qi. It is the best thing to have the empress dowager and the emperor to restrain the imperial concubine and teach the fourth elder brother, and she does not blame the imperial concubine. It was not intentional to teach the fourth elder brother to be like this, it was the life in Chengqian Palace, which has always been like this.

There was such an incident before the Lantern Festival, whether it was good or not, it was not bad at all. The little elder brothers were beaten and acted like a baby, and it passed away. However, the emperor stayed in Jingyang Palace for two days. Concubine Rong seemed to be a blessing in disguise, but There are also things that embarrass her.

When the emperor rested in Jingyang Palace the first night, Concubine Wen complained that she was not feeling well, but when the news spread, Concubine Rong kindly persuaded the emperor to go and have a look, but Xuan Ye said angrily, "I'm not an imperial physician." Concubine Derong didn't dare to talk anymore, she came again after that, but she was dismissed as usual.

Niu Hulu, who was emotionally unstable during pregnancy, couldn't bear this grievance. After being sent back again and again, listening to Dong Yun's perfunctory explanation, she cried aggrievedly and said, "Didn't you say that no one would dare to offend the imperial concubine? Why don’t you even dare to provoke Concubine Rong now? Could it be that Concubine Rong is more expensive than Wu Ya’s?”
