Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

One sentence made Lan Qi burst into tears, and being able to get her son's sincere comfort seemed to dissipate all the pain in her body, but when Yinzhen saw her crying, she became anxious, and the little guy ran away without looking back. In fact, the people on both sides were not far or near to wait on them, and soon someone came to help Concubine De. Although Lan Qi had worked hard, she would no longer be flustered as before with the experience of giving birth, and she calmly treated Huanchun and the others. Say don't worry.

Everyone here escorted Concubine De back to the Yonghe Palace. Some people with fast legs ran back to make preparations. When Lan Qi was brought back, everything was ready. The imperial concubine also led the fourth elder brother to follow. She secretly regretted At this juncture, if Concubine De made any mistakes, the emperor would hate her.

"Fourth brother." The mother and son were still standing in the courtyard, when they suddenly heard Jiao Didi's voice, Yin Zuo jumped up and ran from the side, he still likes his brother so much, it seems that the Double Ninth Festival has been forgotten, and there seems to be something So worried, he didn't rush up to cling to his brother immediately, but stood very close, and said in a childish voice, "Brother, are you here?"

However, Yinzhen said to him like an older brother: "Why are you not being polite when you see my mother-in-law?"

Yinzuo pursed his lips, reluctantly, and the imperial concubine smoothed things over, saying that his younger brother was still young, and told him not to be so serious, but when Yinzuo saluted awkwardly, Yinzhen took his hand and said, "Concubine De The empress is about to give birth to a baby, we'll wait elsewhere, the adults here are busy and don't have time to take care of us."

Yinzuo saw that his elder brother was getting back with him again, and his face was like a flower, he bounced and followed the fourth elder brother to his room. The imperial concubine looked at the happy and happy little figures of the two children, and her heart was full of warmth Sweet, but also has to feel sad, she is not blessed to have such a good child.

It didn't take long for Concubine Rong to arrive, and the concubine De's birth had been reported to the Six Palaces. Before Yonghe Palace had time to dig a hole, the Empress Dowager ordered the Concubine Huang Guifei to preside over these things, and they were busy with these things, and some news came out from time to time. The imperial concubine did not seem to be going well. The imperial concubine was worried that the emperor would blame her for provoking Concubine De to give birth suddenly, so she felt a little guilty, and complained from time to time: "She is already the fourth child, why is it so difficult?" Then she asked Concubine Rong why Concubine Rong smiled bitterly and said that she didn't even remember.

In the eyes of the concubines of the Six Palaces and the court ministers, Concubine De's birth of a boy and girl is extremely important. If she has another child and can survive smoothly, with the support of her three sons, Concubine De's future is limitless.Now there is still a vacancy for a noble concubine, even if there is an imperial concubine in the future, it may not be out of reach. As long as the emperor is willing, what are the rules and regulations?Moreover, the imperial concubine is also very likely to come to Japan to become the empress, and the adopted son of the imperial concubine is the son of the concubine De. If these two join hands, one will be of noble birth and the other will be enduring in favor. The power of the imperial court will also expand day by day.

But only the emperor knows, only Lan Qi and the empress dowager know that no matter whether she has a boy or a girl, she will not stay with her. After the child is born, she will be sent to Ningshou Palace. The empress dowager and the emperor still love her , asked if she wanted to stay longer, but she said cruelly: "If you stay, it will be hard to let go. Even if you wanted to send Si elder brother away at the beginning, but the heart-piercing pain, the concubine will never forget it for the rest of her life." .”

That evening, when it was getting dark, the Yonghe Palace finally heard a baby crying. The imperial concubine was already impatiently waiting in the side hall, and the loud cry finally woke her up. At this moment, the emperor just got rid of the court affairs and rushed over. As soon as he stepped into the door, he heard crying. Eunuch Li also said excitedly: "The crying is so clear. I don't know if it is the princess or the elder brother."

But seeing Luzhu happily running out of it, she wanted to run to where the imperial concubine was. When she saw the emperor in front of the door, she quickly turned around and ran over, and said beamingly: "Congratulations to the emperor, your mother gave birth to a little princess. The imperial doctor said mother and daughter It's safe."

Xuanye showed joy, and muttered: "It's good that she is safe." Then he urged Luzhu, "Hurry up and bring the little princess here for me to see."

The imperial concubine and the concubine Rong hurried out when they heard that Shengjia had arrived. The former was worried that the emperor would hold her accountable for today's matter. Fortunately, the little princess was born smoothly to dilute the trouble. They said, "I have a princess again."

Everyone came in, Concubine Rong went into the delivery room to see Lan Qi, the emperor and imperial concubine waited in the outer hall for the nurse to bring the little princess, the imperial concubine tsk-tsk: "This child was born really well, how can a newborn child be so white and clean? When our daughter was born, the fourth elder brother said that my sister was ugly."

Xuan Ye couldn't help feeling sorry for her losing her daughter, and said gently: "The princess is also your child."

The imperial concubine was taken aback. The emperor's words are the honor only a queen can have. The queen who is the mother of the world is the aunt of all the princes and princesses in the palace. Is my cousin sincere when he says this, or is it just to appease her?

"Hold me, I'm afraid I'll hurt her." The emperor handed the swaddle to the imperial concubine, and she took it carefully. The light and exquisite little girl was born white and white, as if she was born a royal princess She couldn't help the tears welling up in her eyes, and said to Xuan Ye, "Today Yinzhen played with the sixth elder brother again, the emperor can rest assured."

Xuan Ye nodded with a smile, didn't say much, he didn't need to hold the child, so he could look at the girl carefully, and said happily, "This child looks like me, right?"

Only then did the imperial concubine laugh: "The emperor looks just like you, and the little princess looks like her mother-in-law."

At this moment Concubine Rong came out, her face was very worried, and she replied: "Your Majesty, Sister De Concubine is very weak, and she fell asleep without saying a few words to the concubine. , but the fetal position is not right, my sister has suffered a lot, and she has to take care of her body for a few months."

Xuan Ye knew it in his heart, and said: "Since this is the case, I'm afraid they won't be able to take care of the little princess if they stay in Yonghe Palace. Concubine De and Yinzuo can't be short of people around them. It would be a bad rule to add people to Yonghe Palace."

The imperial concubine looked at the emperor in a daze, but when the emperor said that he would send the little princess to Ningshou Palace, he even summoned the nurses and nurses to take the child away after giving orders. Only then did he feel empty in his arms, and couldn't help but say to the emperor: "Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that Concubine De will be sad?"

Xuan Ye said, "She will understand."

The news that the little princess was sent to Ningshou Palace quickly spread to the Six Palaces. Concubine Yi in Yikun Palace was eating and the emperor went to watch Concubine De give birth. After drinking half a bowl of vinegar, I heard that the princess was carried away, and she went to Ningshou Palace.

"What's going on here, last year the child was so weak, Defei was so weak and didn't even say that she would send her away, why did she send the child away so well this year?" Concubine Yi couldn't figure it out, she really couldn't fathom the emperor's intentions , dragged Tao Hong and chattered, and even accused the queen mother of being greedy, "Do you think it's because she has become addicted to raising children, and she has a grandson, so she would like to have a granddaughter to make up for it?"

Tao Hong didn't have any ideas, just listened to the master's ramblings, and was busy preparing gifts, while reminding her: "You will be confinement in two days, master, do you want to come to the door to congratulate yourself?"

"She came here in person last month, but now the princess has been sent away. If I go to congratulate her, what if she doesn't appreciate it and resents me for making fun of her instead?" Concubine Yi rolled her eyes and ordered Tao Hong, " Just look at what other people do, look at what Concubine Hui does."

Concubine Yi was not the only one who didn't understand this matter in the palace, anyone seemed to find it weird, the emperor sent the princess away because the people in Yonghe Palace couldn't take care of her, if he said he didn't care about Concubine Niande's feelings Not necessarily, but if it had been discussed with Concubine De a long time ago, what could be calculated by sending a doll to Ningshou Palace?

Concubine Wen looked at Dong Yun preparing the congratulatory gift. She was about to give birth, and her belly was getting bigger and bigger. It was the first time in her life that she really experienced childbirth, and she became more and more frightened. After sending it to the Empress Dowager, she repeatedly asked Dong Yun: "If I am weak, will the Emperor send my child away?"

Dong Yun comforted her a few words, and gradually Concubine Wen began to mutter again: "Will the emperor come on the day I was born? He was in the Mulan paddock when Concubine Huang was born, and he ran to Yonghe Palace when Concubine Yi was born, only today he is in a hurry I'm busy going to see the mother and daughter of Concubine De, what about me?"

It happened that Jue Chan came over with Xianghe, and they had prepared gifts, which they were going to send along with Concubine Wen. When they entered the door and heard this sentence, Dong Yun begged Jue Chan as if he had found a savior: "Your Majesty, please persuade your empress. .”

Feeling helpless in her heart, Jue Chan comforted her on the face: "The emperor will definitely come to see you, this is the first time you have a baby."

Concubine Wen's eyes shined brightly. At least so far, Jue Chan's promises have not been fulfilled. She even feels that Jue Chan's prophecy has some magical powers. Hearing what she said makes her feel at ease.

There was a whole night of joy in the palace, and the Yonghe Palace was even more lively the next day, but the Queen Mother ordered that Concubine De was weak, so that the concubines did not have to come to disturb her rest, and everyone just sent the maids to give gifts. She was kept quietly in the house, and there were sisters outside to take care of her.

At this moment, Bugui brought in hot medicine. Seeing Lan Qi sitting under the window in a daze, the golden sunlight fell on her body through the window, but there was no warmth at all. It's so desolate that it actually suppresses the warm autumn sun.

"What's the matter?" Bugui was very worried, sitting aside with the medicine in his hand and asked, "Do you miss your daughter?"

Lan Qi smiled lightly, and asked her what medicine she was taking, Bu Guiren said it was to help the discharge of lochia, she drank it obediently, Bu Guiren put down the medicine bowl and wiped it for her with a handkerchief, and asked again: "Do you miss the little princess? "

Lan Qi nodded, with tears in the corners of her eyes, she said softly: "I feel helpless for no reason, and sometimes I think, how do I live my life? When I woke up today, my body was empty, and my head was empty."
