Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

Concubine De was pregnant, Qinglian didn't dare to work her, so she asked her to wait in front of the door for a while, Lan Qi saw the busy people inside, the cotton that stopped the bleeding was dyed red, she stopped for a long time, and was busy feeding her again. The imperial concubine changed her clothes and bedding, and when she finally got close, the weak imperial concubine's first sentence was: "Don't tell Yinzhen."

Lan Qi was heartbroken, the imperial concubine's love for her child was beyond her own ability, and she said that the thirteenth elder brother who was raised by her side, she thought she took good care of Xuan Ye's child, and she believed that she would not disappoint Xing'er's love for her. For her dedication, she still cannot subjectively recognize the love for the thirteenth elder brother as a mother and child, but on the side of the imperial concubine, the fourth elder brother has long been her flesh and blood.

"Is the imperial doctor Xuan?" Lan Qi asked Qinglian, Qinglian shook her head, "It's the same when the imperial doctor comes, every time he says those few words, the doctor invited by the family also comes to the palace to have a look, and always prescribes some prescriptions for you. The empress is taking medicine, let’s talk about resting and recuperating. The servant thinks, after returning to the palace, the empress is probably busy with entertainment, and the empress is tired again.”

"What's wrong with it?" Lan Qi asked again.

"Why are you asking so many questions?" But the imperial concubine became impatient, she glanced at Lan Qi coldly, closed her eyes to rest, her pale lips squirmed slightly, "Do you think I'm sick and can't By taking care of Yinzhen, you can take the child back?"

Perhaps it was because the pregnant woman was so angry with the child. Lan Qi was robbed by the imperial concubine in the past, and she laughed it off. Today, all kinds of emotions are entangled, and when she heard the imperial concubine say this, she immediately refuted without dignity: "My lady What's the point of saying such a thing, it's been ten years, and you still don't trust my concubine? Even if it's just for Si elder brother's sake, Chen Qie also hopes that you will live a long and healthy life, if you make a mistake, Si elder brother will be so sad."

The room was filled with a faint smell of gunpowder. If the imperial concubine was in good spirits, who would dare to refute her face-to-face like this would be asking for death, but now the imperial concubine has no energy to argue with others, and more importantly, every word Defei said They all hit the soft spot in her heart.

"You don't need to teach me, get out." The imperial concubine had no confidence or strength, she coldly put down these words, and waved her hand to call Qinglian, "Seeing off, I don't want to see her again these days, no one will allow it." Enter the gate of Chengqian Palace."

Lan Qi got up slowly, said that she would go by herself, and protected her belly to bless the imperial concubine. Finally, she calmly and patiently persuaded: "I ask your empress to forgive me for my disrespect. All the concubines speak from the bottom of their hearts, and trivial matters in the palace With Concubine Rong's cooking, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager don't have to wait on her every day. The emperor thinks highly of her, and the fourth elder brother thinks that you are even more irreplaceable. Please take care of yourself. You can take care of yourself in Chengqian Palace with peace of mind. good."

The imperial concubine turned her face sideways and closed her eyes, concealing her own tears, but even with her eyes closed tightly, she couldn't bear the hot tears gushing out, so she resisted making a sound so that Concubine De would not notice, and only waited for her to leave the room before growing up. He let out a long breath, covered his face and howled.

Qinglian could not persuade her, but finally the master grabbed her hand and said: "Qinglian, if I really can't get better, because of our friendship for so many years, don't leave Yinzhen and continue to be with him." Take care of him by your side, okay?"

Qinglian knew in her heart that if the imperial concubine hadn't been desperate herself, she would never be able to say such a thing, and she watched her master weaken day by day, and she understood the weight of these words better than anyone else, her eyes were clouded with tears, she nodded and agreed: "Slave servant I will be with fourth elder brother for the rest of my life, Madam, don't worry, don't think too much about it, take good care of yourself."

The imperial concubine took her hand, trembling from crying, and asked Qinglian over and over again if she had committed too much crime, and it took her a long time to calm down before she listened to Qinglian's persuasion, whether it was retribution or punishment, the only thing she could do now was Yes, it is to take good care of your body, and one more day of life is a day, even if the pain of losing yourself to the fourth elder brother can be reduced by one day.

In the study, Xiaohezi came back from Chengqian Palace. Just now he went back for his master to remind the imperial concubine to take the medicine on time, but he didn't want to hear the dispute between the imperial concubine and the concubine De outside the door. He thought it was an important matter, but he heard Later, the eye circles were red, and now he came back listless. The elder brothers just finished class, and the fourth elder brother stood in the corridor to relax his muscles and bones. When he saw him coming in with his head drooping, he couldn't help frowning.

Xiaohezi didn't know whether he should say those things or not, and the fourth elder brother repeatedly attacked him, so he said those things in Chengqian Palace in a slightly weeping voice, and Yinzhen was stunned when he heard it.Thinking of his adoptive mother who treats him wholeheartedly, and his biological mother who has never neglected to take care of him, he is a blessed child who can get the love of two mothers, but right now, half of his blessing seems to be coming to an end.

Yinzhen is very smart, and has long noticed that her adoptive mother is not in good health. It is not a minor ailment with headaches and brain fever, but that her mother is still in her best years, but she is not as energetic every day. The former mother who was high-spirited is not very common. Now, my mother's temper has gradually become milder, mostly because of her poor health.

"Fourth elder brother, the empress is most afraid that you will not be able to concentrate on your homework because of him. If you are praised by the master and rewarded by the emperor, the imperial concubine will be happy. You must not let the empress down." This is a good way to understand the principles of life, these few words are very good, Yin Zhen nodded and agreed, "I understand."

But even if the child is calm, he can't get rid of the sadness in his heart for his mother's weakening. One evening, when he returned to Chengqian Palace after school, he stood in front of the bedroom door and hadn't entered yet. The fourth elder brother, who was always calm and strong, cried so hard that he couldn't help it. .

Seeing the child crying, the imperial concubine thought that Yinzhen was being bullied in the study. After asking for a long time, the child didn't say a word. She gradually understood why. Although her heart was sad, she was more filled with her son's love. She coaxed him to laugh and say : "When a man tears, he doesn't flick it lightly. Your Huang Ama doesn't like to see boys cry. Er Niang will always be with you."

The faint sadness in Chengqian Palace has spread to Yonghe Palace. When she was humiliated and abused by the imperial concubine in the past, how could she think of today's situation? Lan Qi hopes that the imperial concubine can live a long and healthy life. Frequently going in and out of Chengqian Palace, the imperial concubine was comforted and cared for by her husband and son meticulously, and her body really improved, and the fourth elder brother gradually saw a smile on her face.

In the blink of an eye, Elder Brother Thirteen turned one year old, and it was very lively on the day of Catch the Week. The little guy held the Ruby Panlong Saber in one hand, and the big grabbing brush with the Xiangfei bamboo pen tube in the other. Both the saber and the big grabbing brush had his own body It's so big, even if the little guy couldn't lift it, he wouldn't let go, and was eager to ask someone to lift him up, crying and laughing to make the elders very happy.

But these lively events have nothing to do with the biological mother of the thirteenth elder brother in Yikun Palace. Since Defei returned to the palace, both sides have avoided seeing each other. Although everyone is looking forward to seeing the scene of the two fighting, but think about it Zhang Jiashi is just a promise, what right does she have to be arrogant in front of the concubine Defei.

At this moment, the women gathered in the Yifei Hall, talking about the bustle of the thirteen elder brothers a few days ago, Zhang promised to look forward to it, and tears filled her eyes when she heard it, and everyone advised her to look away, and she lowered her head and sobbed and complained : "Empress Defei didn't even let my concubine take a look. Since the empress returned to the palace, the concubine wanted to go to pay her respects but was rejected. Even the empress Yifei didn't give her face. Is it possible that the thirteenth elder brother will see his mother? , don’t you want a foster mother?”

These complaints spread from the Yikun Palace to the East and West Sixth Palaces as the women spread. Lan Qi just sighed, sighing that Xinger is not easy, and she doesn't know how long this kind of life will last.Concubine Hui recently said that she was ill and had little contact with others, so they couldn't catch anything. Besides, Lan Qi knew that the impeachment of Mingzhu by the previous court was getting worse, so she didn't dare to cause any major events in the harem that would affect the emperor. Brother's enemy, if the emperor can bring him to justice this time, it will be a real outburst of anger.

But Eunuch Liang sent news that Lan Qi didn't want to hear. The womb was peaceful and quiet these days, and there was something she didn't want to see happened right under her nose.Eunuch Liang told the empress very clearly that Concubine Hui had secretly met with nobleman Juechan twice in private. Although Concubine Hui waited for nobleman Juechan each time, the nobleman did not turn around and left. In a while.

Concubine Hui has been using the excuse of recuperation these days not to go out, and occasionally goes out to wait for the nobleman Jue Chan, if the first time is a coincidence, the second time seems to be an appointment.

Lan Qi knew that the former didn't go out because he said he was sick, and the latter didn't go out much. Occasionally, the two of them would meet and talk when they went out, which had to be suspected.She believed in Jue Chan's hatred for Concubine Hui, but in the current situation, she had to be a bit suspicious. Even if a smart and courageous person like Jue Chan could not stand behind her, he would definitely not be hostile .

What made Lan Qi even more alert was that she was aware of the big event in the court right now.Jue Chan hates Concubine Hui, but now that the emperor wants to shake Mingzhu's power, there is no doubt that the entire Mingzhu Mansion will be implicated. If a major crime is committed, the whole family will suffer accordingly. But his wife and children are still there, can Jue Chan see Nalan Rongruo's flesh and blood as slaves in the future, can he watch his wives and concubines become slaves and suffer all kinds of humiliation?

It was from Jue Chan that Lan Qi knew that a minister wanted to impeach Mingzhu, and she expressed her determination not to interfere in the government affairs. If Jue Chan wanted to plan something to save Nalan Rongruo's wife, children and mother, she would go here. If it doesn't work out, it's not surprising to turn to Concubine Hui for help, and for Concubine Hui, this is the best thing.

But the two women, how can they influence Chao Gang?

From the time when the bowl of poison appeared in Ruijingxuan until now, everything that Lan Qi has experienced has made Lan Qi understand more deeply the bondage between the palace and the court. The smart and capable self is actually incapable of dealing with everything in the palace. Kindness is meaningless in this world, and weakness will only lead to failure.

That day, Jue Chan went to see Concubine Hui for the third time, and when he returned to Yanxi Palace at dusk, he was surprised to see Concubine De waiting for her in the East Side Hall.
