Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

Concubine De is only Concubine De after all, whether it is the imperial court or the harem, the world outside Yonghe Palace will not revolve around her.The sudden tragedy caught everyone by surprise, but it only took a day or two for others to calm down, and everything returned to its original state.People in the world even think that in the emperor's heart, the life of a child is no match for the country. They only have the emperor in their eyes, and they have never ignored his existence as a husband, father, and descendants.

Right now there is still the Empress Dowager lingering on her sick bed, Xuan Ye shouldn't have left Beijing at this moment, but the old man called his grandson to him and said: "The child is gone, and you can't get him back by whatever you do. If this is the case, if you don't Be strong, who should Lan Qi rely on? If she misunderstands that you are a heartless person, then she is sorry for your affection. In fact, it is useless for anyone to persuade her at this juncture, even if she wants to be strong in her heart, the pain is just like the devil. It is like a curse lingering on her body, like a lingering illness. Only when her body relieves the pain on its own, can she figure it out slowly. Now if you try to comfort her or even force her to be strong, there will be no results , what she wants is Yinzuo, and none of you can replace her."

Xuan Ye was in tears, and the empress dowager tremblingly stretched out her hand to hold his cheek, "My grandson, it's been a long time since I shed tears. It's the first time I've seen you in such pain after losing so many children. Sure enough, there are relatives If there is any difference, I understand what you, Ama, are doing to treat a child who is only three months old."

Xuan Ye's tears didn't fall, he just couldn't hide his sadness, the emperor's dignity couldn't tolerate his tears flicking, he had already shed all his tears in front of Lan Qi that day.

"How's the investigation going? Do you know who did it?" the Empress Dowager asked.

Xuan Ye's expression was stern and deep, and he nodded slightly: "There are some eyebrows."

"Can we finish them off?" The Empress Dowager's eyes were full of murderous intent, wishing to crush the murderer to ashes.

But the emperor shook his head, and a cold light reflected in his eyes like a sharp blade, piercing and sharp, "I will not let Yinzuo die in vain, and I will not let them live well. If we keep these slaves, how can we serve the court?" No matter how well the country does something, I will not let them live well."

The empress dowager knew that under the emperor's words, he hid his helplessness, but to see the emperor so calm and proud, this is the responsibility an emperor should have.Yinzuo can't die in vain, he understands better than anyone else, but the court can't be chaotic, he is more helpless than anyone else.

"If Lan Qi is pestering you, she wants to explain the child's death. If you can't persuade her, let me persuade you." The Empress Dowager sighed, "But if she doesn't pester you for an answer , you should take the initiative to tell her what's going on, don't be afraid that she won't dare to face it, she still has Yinzhen and Wen Xian waiting for her to protect her."

Xuan Ye nodded in agreement, and when he mentioned Yinzhen, he frowned slightly and said: "The relationship between Yinzhen and the imperial concubine has been very bad these days, that child is sad that Yinzuo is gone, why did he do that to the imperial concubine? I don't even know what to do. How to face their mother and son, is it going to be so embarrassing and send Yinzhen back to Yonghe Palace?"

"No way!" The Empress Dowager immediately stopped her grandson, "I can't even mention this, Yinzhen is already her life, if you take Yinzhen away, she will no longer be the imperial concubine. Xuanye, the harem Just like the imperial court, it can never be decided with a few simple words, you must consider the overall situation. Besides, Yinzuo is Yinzuo, even if you send Yinzhen back, it will not help."

Xuan Ye just said it casually, he didn't plan on this matter, he knows the imperial concubine better than anyone else, if he takes Yinzhen away, he can't heal Lan Qi's injury, and it will drive the imperial concubine crazy, when the time comes Only then will the world really be in chaos.

This matter has been settled in the Compassionate Ning Palace, but in fact, there have been some rumors in the palace recently. After all, everyone can see that the emperor loves Concubine De. Now she has lost her son, although there is still Princess Wenxian who can take him back anytime and anywhere. The Yonghe Palace raised her, but for concubines, having a prince is the greatest pride and reliance, so they would naturally keep their eyes on Chengqian Palace, thinking that if Concubine De is really infatuated with the emperor, the imperial concubine may not be able to match her pillow wind.

These gossips will naturally float into the Chengqian Palace. The imperial concubine has long been worried about the drastic change in Yinzhen's temperament, and now she is even more afraid of losing. I would like to let him leave the palace to go to the study, with the excuse that it is "not clean", but I am afraid that Yinzhen will leave in the morning and go directly to the Yonghe Palace at night. When the imperial decree comes, she will not even be qualified to go to the Yonghe Palace.

In late May, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. It used to be bright in the study room when the child wakes up in the morning. Now when he goes out in the morning, he is already staring at the bright sun. Although Yinzhen doesn't talk to the people in the Yonghe Palace, he can go to the study room Never delay, the emperor has already arranged another place as a study, and no one can enter the murderous place long ago, but after all, he will pass by every day and see Yin Zuo dying in front of his eyes, which cannot be lingered.

This day, as in the past, when he had to go to the study room, Yinzhen walked to the gate of Chengqian Palace. When Xiao Hezi opened his umbrella, someone ran out of the main hall in a panic, conveying the message of asking for an imperial physician, and then a young eunuch hurried past The fourth elder brother ran out, Yinzhen was waiting by the door, the maid who came out saw that the fourth elder brother was still there, and followed her and said: "Your Majesty wants to get up and send the fourth elder brother to the study, but she fainted as soon as she got out of bed, the servants pinched you I can’t wake up, I’m really dying of anxiety.”

A look of horror flashed across Yinzhen's small face. After a little daze, he immediately ran into the bedroom. Sure enough, he saw the imperial concubine with her eyes closed and her teeth clenched tightly, as if she was dead. Yinzuo also looked like this that day, but the mother No vomiting blood.

"Er Niang, Er Niang..." The child rushed to the bedside to shake his mother, Qinglian hurriedly pulled her away to persuade him not to move, and waited for the imperial doctor to come to rescue her. The complexion gradually became full of vitality, and Yinzhen heard the imperial physician say to Qinglian, "Hasn't your mother not eaten for a long time? The weather is so harsh, and the vitality is exhausted."

Qinglian replied: "Your Majesty can't even eat, she said she doesn't feel hungry, but her heart is blocked, she won't be hungry at all."

Yinzhen looked up at Qinglian, Qinglian avoided her eyes uneasily, she did tell the fourth elder brother on purpose, but the imperial concubine had ordered them not to talk too much in front of the fourth elder brother.

The imperial doctor retreated, the imperial concubine opened her eyes and saw her son beside the bed, and saw that his head was covered with sweat and tears were still dripping on his cheeks, knowing that his son cared about her, she should be happy, but she couldn't help crying, she turned her head and said: " Yinzhen go to the study room quickly, Xiaohezi should be beaten again if he is late."

But Yinzhen didn't leave, with tears in his eyes, he reached out and grabbed the imperial concubine's arm and called, "Er Niang."

The imperial concubine wiped away her tears in a hurry, but no matter how she tried to hide it, she couldn't hide the haggard paleness on her face. She tried her best to smile: "What's the matter? Tell Er Niang."

"Emiang, don't leave me." Yinzhen cried and fell on his mother's chest. The imperial concubine stretched out her arms carefully to hug him in a daze, for fear that if she was too anxious, the child would leave, just like he followed him that day When Concubine Rong came back, she coldly refused her own hug.

The imperial concubine said tearfully: "Silly boy, how could Er Niang abandon you?"

But Yinzhen cried and begged: "Don't get sick, and my mother don't die."

"Er Niang is just tired, silly boy, don't think about it, listen..."

"Emiang, I'm sorry." Yinzhen raised his face full of tears, his eyes were sad, it was his attachment to the imperial concubine, "I'm afraid that Huang Ama will send me back to Empress Defei, and I'm afraid that Erniang will be sad, I just ignore Er Niang, I think, when I think about it, Er Niang will also hate Yinzhen, so I won't be reluctant."

The imperial concubine looked at the child in astonishment, her mouth half-opened and she couldn't say anything, Yinzhen cried and begged her: "I don't want to go back to Yonghe Palace, Er Niang, can you let Yinzuo come back? I will tell Yinzuo, Ask him to take care of the concubine De, Er Niang, I want a younger brother..."

The imperial concubine hugged the child and wept uncontrollably. She thought that she had been abandoned by her son, and she was afraid that she would be disgusted even more if she tried to keep him. She thought her son would leave soon. She knew that Concubine De was pitiful, but she didn't want to Without Yinzhen, Yinzhen is her everything.

Holding the son in her arms truly, the imperial concubine can better understand the pain of the concubine De, but she can't resist her selfishness, she can't be so kind and magnanimous, so she can only promise her son: "Emiang will not be taken away by others." You go, you will always be Erniang's son."

A heart disease requires heart medicine. The imperial physicians always say this, but this time Chengqian Palace is safe and sound. Compared with the emperor forcing her to send the fourth elder brother back, she is more afraid of being abandoned by her son first. This time my heart fell back into my stomach.Others looked at it, although it was a good thing, for some reason, it seemed that Empress Concubine De was even more pitiful.

On the same morning, under the scorching sun, the two carriages walked slowly on the palace road. The nobleman Jue Chan followed Concubine Wen to Ningshou Palace to pay his respects, and now he was about to return to Xianfu Palace.Although she was pregnant, the imperial concubine said that the palace was in chaos at this time, and she should express her dignity well so that people would know her existence, so even if the weather was hot, she would go out with her stomach upright.

However, halfway through the journey, there was a sudden noise behind Concubine Wen, and her shoulders stopped slowly. She turned around and looked, and saw that the shoulders of Mr. Jue Chan were crooked, as if a pole had broken, but fortunately they did not fall on her. But never sit still.

Jue Chan was quickly helped down, she stepped forward and said to the noble concubine, "It's too hot outside, you should go back first, my concubine, I will go back after walking slowly."

The imperial concubine nodded, but ordered: "It's too hot, don't get sunburned, wait in the shade and let them send you another ride."

After saying this, Concubine Wen and her entourage continued to walk forward. The nobleman felt that the eunuchs were playing with their shoulders, and seemed to want to repair them, so he and Xianghe went to a nearby shaded place to wait.Not long after she sat down, she saw a group of guards coming. She recognized the leader, but she hadn't spoken to him for many years. She used to be with Rong Ruo, and Jue Chan called him "Brother Cao".

Cao Yin came over alone, and said respectfully: "I have sent my subordinates to pick up another ride, please wait a moment, my lord."

Jue Chan looked at Cao Yin, his eyes were a little strange, as if hinting at something, he glanced at Xianghe beside him, Jue Chan gradually understood, but she was conflicted whether to listen to what Cao Yin said, just now After a while, Cao Yin took the initiative to say: "I saw a fan left on the shoulder, why don't you go and get it to fan the nobleman to drive away the heat."

Xianghe was simple, and hurriedly agreed to go there, and as soon as she left, Cao Yin looked around in a hurry, turned his back to the people on the other side, and quickly handed a letter to Jue Chan, and said softly: " Don't worry, my lord, the matter of Jianyu was also arranged by the minister, I just want to wait for you here, there will be no troubles, you will know when you go back and read the letter."

Jue Chan was holding the letter at a loss, seeing that Xiang He was about to come back, he could only roll it up and stuff it into his sleeves in a hurry, before she could ask, Cao Yin had already replied: "It's Rong Ruo's letter, he was there the day before yesterday. I'm hangover at home, so I'll ask you to help me when I wake up."
