Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

"Even if someone wants to plot against me, it's too fast and too blatant, why?" Lan Qi didn't care, she looked at the candy happily, and muttered that the emperor used it to coax her to take medicine, but she doesn't like sweets recently Yes, after taking medicine, I only like to have a sour plum. Since I don't want to eat it, it doesn't matter if I have to be checked by the imperial doctor, just let Huanchun put it away and put it away.

In the following days, the emperor was not in the palace, and the six palaces were peaceful and peaceful. The women had no targets to fight for, and they didn't bother to think about it any more. Moreover, it was no different from the old days when the emperor led the noble and favored people to live outside. This time Everyone didn't have to accompany them, even the jealous few stopped.

In the Yonghe Palace, because Lan Qi's health is getting better, Concubine Rong and the others often come to accompany her to relieve her boredom. This day, I inadvertently mentioned that Concubine Wen was out of confinement, and I saw her together this morning when I was paying my respects at Ningshou Palace. Enthusiastic and lively, the whole person was quiet and dull. When the Queen Mother said a few words to her, she just nodded in agreement and hardly opened her mouth.The imperial physician said that Concubine Wen Guifei's hysteria had been cured, and she only needed to recuperate quietly in the days to come, and she didn't take too much medicine.

Lan Qi didn't say anything, but Bu Guiren reminded her worriedly: "I fell down that day, you kept the child, but the imperial concubine was fine but didn't keep it. She might be jealous. You asked Huanchun to take the baby from the Yonghe Palace. Watch the door tightly, don't let her come to trouble you."

Concubine Duan also said: "Concubine Wen Gui has a weird temper, so I don't feel at ease. If we didn't want to come and accompany you from time to time, we might as well go back to the Empress Dowager and order that no one should bother you. I don't know if Concubine Wen will come over one day. Well, it’s okay to hurt you.”

"If she hurts Lan Qi, I don't want to live anymore. The emperor will hate her, and she cares about the emperor so much." Concubine Rong said, and comforted Lan Qi, "Don't be afraid, she won't come to harm you. Cut off your own way out."

"I think the same way. Concubine Wen Guifei cares most about the emperor. Now she should correct her words and deeds. What's the point of pestering me." Lan Qi smiled bitterly, and said, "It's always pitiful to lose a child, and it will take a while for your empress to recover. Slow down."

Seeing that Lan Qi was calm, everyone stopped saying anything to scare her. The few of them sat with them when they had nothing to do. Occasionally, someone came to ask Concubine Rong about something in the palace. Lan Qi watched how Concubine Rong dealt with it. He also understands Lan Qi's future, so he teaches her some things from time to time, but he also jokes: "Don't work too hard, what matters is your body, otherwise you will be hurt by these trivial matters, and the emperor will have to tear down my Jingyang Palace when he comes back."

What the sisters said was just a joke, and no one would take it seriously.

In the blink of an eye, at the end of February, Shengjia was already preparing to start his east tour from Jingshan. Concubine Hui came to Yikun Palace this day with her eighth elder brother in her arms. Because she hadn't seen Concubine Yi go out for a long time, she thought she was not in good health. I heard someone throwing a temper tantrum and saying, "It's useless to eat whatever you eat."

The eighth elder brother in her arms was taken aback, and seeing the nanny leading Princess Kejing out in a hurry, seeing Concubine Hui was so embarrassing, Huifei simply asked the nurse to hold the eighth elder brother to play with Kejing, Going inside alone, she saw Concubine Yi was drinking with her neck up.

Concubine Hui asked with concern: "Is it really sick? What kind of medicine did you take?"

Concubine Yi finished taking the medicine, she casually pointed her finger and said, "Sister, sit down."

Concubine Hui saw that she didn't answer, so she asked Tao Hong, Tao Hong said awkwardly, "It's a tonic for infertility."

"What are you doing in a daze, serving tea for sister?" Concubine Yi glanced at Tao Hong, as if annoyed by her talkativeness, but Concubine Hui smiled and said, "Why are you so embarrassed about me? Why don't you take the birth control medicine?" Alright? The Chengqian Palace is also taking birth control pills, which woman in the harem doesn’t want to give birth to an emperor’s heir?”

Concubine Yi said wearily: "This morning I changed to another imperial doctor, who repeatedly said that I was not pregnant." After speaking, she became anxious, pushed away the things on the table and said bitterly, "Why can't I get pregnant?"

"The emperor often stays with you during the first month, and also before going out in February. I have checked the internal affairs office's records several times, and I hope you have good news, but this matter should not be rushed." Concubine Hui understood her anxiety and advised her Said, "After all, you haven't been serving for a few days, and now you will be there. When the emperor comes back, isn't it going to leave you behind? It may not be a good thing now. The important thing is to keep the emperor's heart. How many times does the emperor go out like this?" Yue, although there will always be someone waiting on the road, no matter whether you bring it back or not, you will always miss home. When the emperor comes back, the Yonghe Palace has not yet given birth, and Concubine Wen still doesn't know if she can be forgiven. The emperor can't be there every day. The imperial concubine's place, isn't it another good thing for you?"

Concubine Yi smiled wryly: "I always feel that I eat other people's leftovers. As long as this is my life, what else can I have?"

Concubine Hui approached her and asked, "What I taught you, can you make the emperor happy?"

"Sister..." Concubine Yi blushed and said embarrassingly, "The emperor likes it very much, it is indeed much better than before, I don't really understand, and I always blame the emperor for not liking me, I really want to thank you for this. "

"Thank you for what I did. When I give birth to a little elder brother in the future, just give me more hugs." Concubine Hui smiled all over her face, and asked her in a lower voice, "When the curtain is pulled, what is the dignity of an emperor or concubine? It's about women. Don't you often say that if Wu Yashi didn't have some vicious skills, how could he coax the emperor to like her so much? Judging by her temperament, she may not be able to serve the emperor at night. She may just treat the emperor as her husband. Man, you think that Long Live Lord likes to be emperor so much, and after more than 20 years of doing it, he is not bored or numb. At that time, you must understand what he wants."

Concubine Yi's neck was already red, she pushed Concubine Hui and said: "Sister talking about this in broad daylight, my sister is really messing around."

"What nonsense?" Concubine Hui said, "Don't worry about keeping the emperor. When the emperor returns to the palace, a new beautiful girl will enter the palace, and within ten days or so, there will be a newcomer in the palace. You At any rate, it's Empress Yifei, can you promise to lose to those little ones?"

Concubine Yi's expression turned gloomy at the words, she almost forgot about the draft again, and now she felt that it was inappropriate to be pregnant at this moment, otherwise in the next half a year, those new goblins would seduce the emperor.

At this moment, there are people who haven't seen each other for a long time near the Compassionate Ning Palace. Lan Qi is worried when she hears that the Empress Dowager has not had a good appetite for a few days, so she insists on taking a look. When the warm sedan arrives here, she is blocked by Concubine Wen and her party. Huan Chun, who was accompanying her, was worried that Concubine Wen Gui would stop her master from speaking, but Dong Yun came over and said to her, "My lady, please let Concubine De concubine go first."

Huanchun heard the words and immediately let the warm sedan go first, and Lan Qi in the sedan did not intend to stop talking, the two sedan chairs passed by, she slightly lifted the curtain to look out, just in time to see Concubine Wen also lifted the curtain, but the two of them walked together Eyes met, the people over there actually put down the curtain in a panic, as if deliberately avoiding her.Although Lan Qi was strange, she didn't want to think about it too much. If she thought about it too much, she was just asking for trouble. Why did she bother to care about how other people lived.

Afterwards Concubine De and his party went to the Palace of Compassion, Concubine Wen's warm sedan chair went to Yikun Palace, she also came out from the gate of Changchun Palace just now, she was looking for Concubine Hui, but she heard that Concubine Hui went to Concubine Yi There, the two sisters were talking in the room at the moment, Tao Hong ran in and said, "The Imperial Concubine has arrived."

Concubine Yi wondered: "Which noble concubine, imperial concubine?"

Tao Hong came up to straighten her clothes and said: "It's Concubine Wen, she has already entered the door, but she is here to find Concubine Hui."

Concubine Hui was so surprised: "Looking for me?"

The two hurriedly went out, Yi Fei whispered in her ear: "Could it be because of Brother Ba, if she asks you to go back, how will you deal with her?"

But before Concubine Hui could answer, Concubine Wen had already walked in, seeing the two saluting, she directly asked, "Is Eighth Brother here?"

"The eighth elder brother is playing with Princess Kejing, and the concubine asked the wet nurse to bring her to greet her." Concubine Hui regained her composure, turned around and called Bao Yun, "Go and bring the elder brother of the princess over."

But Concubine Wen said: "No need, I'll go and bring Eighth Brother here." Pointing to Tao Hong, she asked, "Which room is it? Take me there."

Seeing her appearance, Concubine Hui was about to take the child away, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop her and said, "Why do you need to work on your mother, just let the palace maid carry it. Your seat is good, my lady. Sister Yifei's tea here is very good, and you are also welcome." Try it?"

Concubine Wen glanced at her coldly, turned her face slightly and said: "The emperor often said that the tea in Xianfu Palace is the best, and there is not only good tea in this palace, but also good water, how can you like the tea in Yikun Palace? Since Concubine Hui likes to drink tea, I will reward you some later, after all, you have worked hard to take care of Eighth Brother for more than a month."

Concubine Hui's heart skipped a beat, she forced a smile and asked with a sullen face, "What do you mean by your mother's words?"

"I want to take the eighth elder brother back to Xianfu Palace. Concubine Hui doesn't have to worry about it anymore." As Concubine Wen said so, she quickly bypassed Hui Concubine and went out, scolding the maid outside the door and said, "Eighth elder brother is here where?"

Concubine Yi watched anxiously from the side, but she didn't dare to offend Concubine Wen, so she rushed up and pushed Concubine Hui and said, "Sister, she is really going to pick up the baby."

Concubine Hui turned purple with anger, turned around and ran out to block the way of the noble concubine, regardless of her superiority or inferiority, relying on her seniority, she sternly said: "The imperial concubine has been ill for a long time and doesn't know the affairs of the palace, the emperor has made a decree , from now on, the eighth elder brother will be raised in the Changchun Palace, it doesn’t matter if the imperial concubine wants to hug the child to play, but if she wants to take her back to the Xianfu Palace, please go and ask the Holy Majesty’s will.”

"Get out of the way." Concubine Wen's tone was low, she stared straight at Concubine Hui, "You have been in the palace for so many years, do you still need me to teach you the rules of respect?"

Concubine Hui was not afraid: "The concubines dare not disobey the imperial decree because they know the rules of respect and inferiority. If you want to take the eighth elder brother away, there is the emperor's will, and the concubines will never stop it."

As soon as the words fell, seeing Concubine Wen waving her hand, there was a muffled sound of skin and flesh, Concubine Hui received a slap on the face, and everyone around was stunned, and Concubine Hui had never suffered such a slap in the past ten years since entering the palace. She covered her face with one hand, her scarlet eyes were full of hatred, she stared at Concubine Wen Gui and said, "Your Majesty...do you really want to resist?"

When there was commotion in Yikun Palace, Lan Qi had been sitting in the Compassionate Ning Palace for a while, the Empress Dowager scolded her for not knowing what to do here, but she acted like a baby and said that she was panicking, and worried that she had a bad appetite. It's been a long time since I spoke like this, and the empress dowager was very happy with her giggles, but there was something that never stopped. After hearing what happened in Yikun Palace, Madam Su Mala came in with a frown and told: "Master, the imperial concubine empress If you want to snatch Eighth Brother back, do you need the Empress Dowager to come forward?"
