Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

Xuanye looked at Yinzuo's room, there was a faint light there, and he couldn't see what was going on inside, but he could imagine Lan Qi's appearance, his heart sank, and he was about to walk there, but there was a young eunuch walking quickly behind him. Come on, Eunuch Li listened to a few words after drinking, and hurriedly followed to tell the emperor: "Your Majesty, Master Nalan is gone."

Xuan Ye frowned. He didn't expect that Nalan Rongruo would really die. After so many years of friendship between the monarch and his ministers, although at this moment he hated Mingzhu to the bone, and every day he saw Mingzhu, he wished to crush him, but he never thought of letting him die. Nalan Rongruo resisted his life, but he died unexpectedly.

"I know." After taking a breath, the emperor calmed down the shock in his heart, no matter how much he regretted talents, after all, he was only a courtier, how could he compare with the pain of losing his son, and Lan Qi's pain at this moment.

Huanchun led the emperor all the way to Sixth Brother's house, and said softly on the way: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has spoken today, saying that she is going to Sixth Brother's house, but that's all."

Xuan Ye nodded, and went straight to the door. In the room, only a candle was lit on the kang table. Under the flickering dim candlelight, Lan Qi sat sideways on the edge of the empty bed. Although the furnishings were still the same as before, the sixth elder brother used The furniture and utensils in the house have already been replaced with new ones, and it seems that they were arranged as they were in order to take into account the feelings of Concubine De, but there is no sweet smell of children in this room, but even Xuanye walks in the door, as if he can hear it. The son's acting like a baby in the past, and the "Ama" every time, has long been engraved on his heart.

When Lan Qi heard the movement, she turned around slightly. This move surprised Xuan Ye. You must know that she has not responded to everything around her for half a month. Even if someone shouted at her, she could not hear it at all , Xuan Ye saw that she turned around on her own initiative, and couldn't help but came up and said, "It's me who is here."

Lan Qi nodded, got up, and blessed Xuan Ye's body. She hadn't eaten normally for half a month, and she was hanging by the ring spring green beads to feed her medicine and soup every day. The sharp chin, the sunken eyes, even if they are neatly cleaned by the waiter, it is difficult to conceal the drastic changes in the description of the face, and it is impossible to look carefully under the dim candlelight, which makes Xuanye even more worried.

It's hard to imagine that the person who used to make jokes about Mrs. Li, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, would show her embarrassment in front of him without any scruples.

"Sit down." Xuan Ye stretched out his hand to pull Lan Qi, but she shrank back and sat in the original position, looking where she didn't know.

Xuan Ye looked at her, as if something was blocked in his chest, the pain made it difficult for him to breathe.The room was silent for a while, and Xuan Ye said, "I'm going to Shengjing tomorrow." But the people sitting there just nodded.

"Would you like to go together? I will take you to relax. If no one else will follow, I will take you alone, Lan..."

"Your Majesty." Hearing Lan Qi's voice again after a long time, Xuan Ye seemed to be in a lifetime, afraid that she would stop talking, so he hurriedly asked her first, "What do you want to say?"

With an indifferent expression, Lan Qi bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, have a smooth journey and come back soon."

Xuan Ye's slightly excited expression suddenly dimmed, and the room fell into silent silence again. After hearing Xuan Ye's sigh, he sat down beside Lan Qi.

"The imperial grandmother has been ill for a long time. The imperial doctor said it was due to depression. Madam Su Mala said that the imperial grandmother was worried about you. Every day she couldn't see you, she couldn't feel comfortable every day. The imperial grandmother was getting weaker and weaker, but she didn't let me force you. You, you won’t even be allowed to say a word of persuasion.” Xuan Ye slowly spoke his mind, regardless of whether Lan Qi would listen or not, “I promised you that you can do anything, as long as you can relax one day. But I'm afraid that when you recover, the emperor's grandmother is no longer here. At that time, I will be in pain, and you will be in even more pain. The tragedy will only continue, when will it end?"

These words, Xuan Ye, who is an emperor, didn't say a word even to the Empress Dowager. I don't know if he thinks that Lan Qi won't listen at all, or he doesn't need to hide it in front of her. He felt depressed in his chest while talking. After a little breakup, he continued: "I already know who killed Brother Liu, but I can't kill him to avenge Yinzuo. This is related to the foundation of the court. Once one side is eliminated, the power of the court will be out of balance. , more troubles will come one after another, and even point the blade at our children. Ten years ago, I would think that killing a hundred people would deter those beasts, but now that I have calmed down, I would think that killing a group of people would be in the open, In the future, it will be even more difficult to see what they are doing in the dark; and if I endure it, even if they are in the light, even a little bit of thought in every move cannot escape my eyes. So..."

"So the emperor wants to let the wicked go unpunished, Yin Zuo is gone after all, even if they kill their children, they can't come back. The result is no different for the concubines, but it is very different for the emperor and the court." Lan Qi's gaze It seemed to be frozen at one point, and the tone was even colder and ruthless, "These truths, my concubine thinks about them every day, and I wait for Huanchun to say every day, who did the emperor kill, and which bad guy was brought to justice by the emperor? , but I haven't waited for a day, and the emperor will go to Shengjing tomorrow, and the concubine knows that he can't wait."

Xuan Ye stared blankly at Lan Qi, he didn't know how to think about these words, at least he understood that Lan Qi, who didn't respond to her surroundings, actually heard the messages from others every day, but just now Xuan Ye, however, told her something completely opposite to the result she had been waiting for.

The emperor frowned tightly, shook his head and said, "I can't do that."

"If you can die, that's fine." Lan Qi said, but she didn't know who to ask to die, but she said something that made Xuan Ye's heart tremble, "Every day when I open my eyes and still live, my concubine will be very disappointed. I can't open my eyes anymore. If I die, I can go to accompany Yinzuo. He won't go on the road alone, and can't find Er Niang in that cold place. He will cry if he can't find Er Niang, but ...I can't even hear the cry."

"Lan Qi." Seeing the tears in her eyes, Xuan Ye slightly stretched out his hand to support her body. The person in front of him slowly turned to him, and the teardrops fell on the back of his hand. Tears that should have been warm But it is as cold as water in a deep pool, and the coldness penetrates into my heart bit by bit.

"It's all my fault. I shouldn't be greedy for your kindness to me. You don't like me, don't feel sorry for me. If I wasn't your favorite concubine, they wouldn't kill Yinzuo." Lan Qi shook off fiercely. He took the emperor's hand, "It's my fault, I can't leave him, I want to be with Yinzuo, I want to be with my child."

"No!" Xuan Ye tightly grasped Lan Qi's arm with both hands. His body, which was much thinner than before, dissipated his anger a lot, but he still ordered her firmly and coldly, "I said, you You can do anything, but you must recover one day. Die? Wuya Lanqi, don't even think about it."

Lan Qi's tearful eyes were full of hatred, she had never treated anyone like this in her life, but she stared at Xuan Ye with hateful eyes, Xuan Ye never evaded, and accepted her with angry eyes All the hatred, the two stalemate like this for a long time, Xuan Ye felt that Lan Qi's arm was going to be crushed by him, finally let go of it a little bit, and asked in a hoarse voice: "You are dead, what should I do?"

The person in her hand trembled, and under the dim candlelight, her facial features could be seen twisting, her thin body suddenly fell heavily into her arms, and from the silent trembling, she gradually let out a weeping sound, "Yinzuo is back", one sound "My child is so pitiful", Lan Qi cried like crazy.

Even if they covered Xuan Ye's body, the sharp crying could not be concealed and spread out. Huanchun and the others who were waiting outside the door suddenly heard the crying, but they all breathed a sigh of relief with tears in their eyes. After the sixth brother's coffin was carried away Well, her master never shed a single tear, the living dead person finally cried out.

Crying and venting heart and soul, the weak Lan Qi finally fainted in Xuan Ye's arms, Huan Chun and the others watched the emperor take the empress out, they were so frightened that they wanted to announce the imperial physician, but Xuan Ye said no, just said: "She's tired of crying."

Sending her back to the dormitory with my own hands, I saw her face clearly in the place where the candlelight was bright, the deep indigo daisy in front of my eyes made my heart ache, I don't know how many nights she was sleepless, and the crazy crying just now made her delicate skin congested Xuan Ye gently wiped away the tears remaining on her face, because she is the one she loves, and she doesn't care about the loss of her face at all. Apart from being distressed, she still feels distressed.

"Take good care of the concubine De, I will leave Beijing tomorrow, and I will not be able to return until autumn. I hope to see your master, at least better than now. People in the palace will be sent to Shengjing at any time, and Director Li will stay behind to do it." Palace Qing, if you need anything, you can go to him directly." After Xuan Ye gave Huan Chun such instructions, he reluctantly left.

Huanchun and Yukui stayed together in the dormitory all night. The person who cried bitterly would twitch and cry from time to time in his sleep, but it seemed that he was exhausted to the extreme and did not wake up because of it. Lan Qi should have passed away since her child that night. Afterwards, she slept the deepest night. It was not until dawn the next day that she opened her eyes heavily, and the headache after crying loudly hit her, that she could clearly remember what happened last night.

"Master is awake?" Huan Chun asked softly.

Lan Qi turned her head and saw all of them with dark circles under their eyes. The person who had been indifferent for half a month finally said: "You are exhausted."

Huan Chun asked softly, "Is Master hungry?"

Lan Qi shook her head, thinking about what happened last night again, "Has the emperor been here?"

Huan Chun was afraid that she would not be able to distinguish reality from dreams, so she told her all about last night. Lan Qi listened quietly, and finally asked her: "Where is the emperor?"

Yu Kui stood aside and said: "The emperor is leaving the palace soon, and is leaving for Shengjing today."

Lan Qi was silent for a while, she moved her body to get up, Huan Chun gave her a hand, and then she heard the master say: "Change my clothes."

She raised her eyes to look at the sky outside the window. The bright sunlight made her squint her red and swollen eyes, but it was the stinging pain in her eyes at this moment that made her feel that she was still alive after a long time.

The torrential rain washed away the whole day yesterday, and it did not take away the heat at all. This morning, when the sun rose, it was so hot that people sweated even if they moved a little under the sun, but the concubines still gathered neatly, and the emperor was about to go out. , I don't know if he will come back in a month or two, I thought I could go out with him, but now I'm giving up, but if I don't let him take a look at me before going out, and then come back later, I'm afraid I'll forget it completely.

Concubine Huang Guifei is still sick, Concubine Yi is still recuperating, Concubine Rong and Concubine Hui arrive, what surprises them is that Concubine Wen leads Jue Chan with her stomach full.

At this moment the emperor is still in the Palace of Compassion and Peace, and he will board the car to leave when he arrives from the Palace of Compassion and Peace. The reputation went away, and the people behind said: "The Empress Defei is here." The two looked at each other.

Then I saw a path spread out among the crowd, and the concubine De, dressed in a water-green flag, came slowly, holding the hand of the maid. The fresh and fresh clothes were bright but not ostentatious, but no matter how beautiful the clothes were, they couldn't cover the bruises on her face. Haggard, where is the beautiful and noble concubine of Yonghe Palace with a blessed face, thin cheeks, Qingdai eye circles, and this ill-fitting clothes slightly dangling, the weak person came with a decent face, but everyone looked I could see the sadness in her heart.

Concubine Rong breathed a sigh of relief, and came up to support her: "The sun is so hot, why don't you take an umbrella?"

Lan Qi smiled slightly: "It's been a long time in the house, so it's good to have some sun."

Afterwards, she bowed to Concubine Wen Gui, and Concubine Wen felt sorry for her, she didn't know what to say for a while, so she simply didn't speak.Concubine Rong asked her to stand beside her, and Concubine Hui also came forward to greet her politely, she is a smart person, so she can't say any condolences at this moment, it's just ordinary polite words.

The empresses didn't mention it, and the people below didn't dare to talk too much, besides, the sudden arrival of the concubine De, even if she was only haggard and weak to support her dignity, it made them feel incredible, but she secretly glanced at the concubine De and looked at the concubine De, secretly in her heart Mutter.

Not long after Lan Qi arrived, Sheng Jia finally came from the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Xuan Ye walked slowly, he was a little tired of the concubines coming to see him off, and was about to send Eunuch Li to invite them all back, when suddenly his eyes lit up and saw There was a refreshing presence in the gorgeous bushes, he walked a few steps closer, and looked carefully, and it turned out that it was really Lan Qi standing there.

All the concubines saluted in unison, among the yingying and swallows, Lan Qi slightly raised her head, just looking at Xuan Ye, the emperor smiled at him gratifyingly, Lan Qi also smiled, nodded a little, with a tacit understanding.

Xuan Ye didn't go to the female relatives anymore, and told Eunuch Li to say: "You know." Then he walked to the imperial chariot, and the concubines followed the emperor, until the wheels rolled, and the holy chariot left in a mighty way, and everyone relaxed. Take your breath away.

Concubine Rong was about to send Lan Qi back to Yonghe Palace with Bu Guiren, but Eunuch Li came up and said, "Since Your Majesty has gone out, why don't you go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, the Empress Dowager..."

"I'm about to go, but I can't walk fast because my feet are weak." Lan Qi responded, and said to Concubine Rong and Bu Gui who were supporting her beside her, "Sister, hold me by the arm, walk slowly."

On the other side, Mrs. Jue Chan helped Concubine Wen to get on the shoulder car. After Concubine Wen left, Mrs. Jue Chan took Xiang He and walked slowly. Have you heard about it? Master Nalan passed away last night, how young he is."

Jue Chan froze and froze.
