Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

Hearing that Xuan Ye was waiting for her to go back in the Yonghe Palace, Lan Qi was eager to return, but it was so easy to see her mother, she couldn't bear it, so it was Aunt Su Mala who pushed her and smiled: "Your Majesty will become a slave whenever she sees a servant girl." , Your Majesty is so busy these days, don't waste time."

Lan Qi said: "Take care of yourself. If there is any inconvenience in Ningshou Palace, please tell me. There is nothing that the emperor cannot agree to about your matter."

The nanny smiled bitterly: "It's the same everywhere, but the emperor clearly doesn't let slaves guard the mausoleum, and you said there's nothing you can't agree to."

"That's different." Lan Qi explained in a hurry, but she was pushed by the nanny and turned around and said, "Your Majesty, go back quickly, don't make the emperor wait for a long time, that's what the slaves are like, you and the emperor still have a long time to live."

Lan Qi couldn't hold her back, and she really wanted to see Xuan Ye, she was well dressed today, she didn't intend to let Xuan Ye see her, she just wanted to take a walk in the palace, and then come here to make the Queen Mother and Aunt Su Mala happy , I didn't expect that Xuan Ye rushed here just on the first day of her confinement.

"Am I pretty, Mommy?" Lan Qi finally asked with a smile on her face before walking away.

"It's beautiful, even better than before." The nanny smiled kindly, straightened the bracelet hanging on Lan Qi's chest, and called Huan Chunyukui to help her, "I'm so happy to take care of your master."

A group of people rushed back to Yonghe Palace, unexpectedly they approached Yonghe Gate, and saw the imperial chariot slowly leaving. Several people were dumbfounded. Yukui ran up to ask what happened. The little eunuch in front of the gate said: It's urgent."

When Lan Qi arrived at the door, she stared blankly at the imperial chariot leaving, and at the same time heard Yukui asking if the emperor had left any words, but no one inside or outside the door knew, even Ziyu, who served the tea, said : "Eunuch Liang notified something important, the emperor left immediately without saying a word to the slaves."

Lan Qi's heart was empty, and she went into the inner hall and sat there motionless, thinking to herself, he came here specially, but it was in vain, and finally rushed back by himself, and he left again, this time he didn't know when he was empty, although at the same time In the Forbidden City, it is really not easy to see.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor will definitely come again." Huan Chun came in, and carefully removed the head of the master's tinsel. The heavy things were removed from the head, and she was indeed loose, but she felt that her heart was more empty, lost He said, "Right now even the Ningshou Palace is sending Eunuch Liang to pay his respects. He is too busy to touch the ground, I know."

"Why don't you go to Qianqing Palace by yourself?" Huanchun was helpless, talking nonsense, "Anyway, Concubine Yi often runs by herself, and the emperor doesn't even drive her away, let alone you?"

Lan Qi shook her head with her face down, and muttered: "I don't bother to do that. Others look at it, and I seem to be following her."

Huanchun smiled helplessly: "It doesn't matter whether you learn or not. The important thing is that you have been preparing for so long. Don't you just look forward to letting the emperor see the most energetic appearance? If you are unhappy about this matter and droop your face, you can It doesn't look good."

Lan Qi patted her lightly, "Stop teasing me." Suddenly she remembered something, and hurriedly called Ziyu and the others to her and asked, "How does your majesty look?"

Ziyu responded: "The emperor doesn't seem to be in a good mood. When he was waiting for you in the room, he leaned here and dozed off. If Eunuch Liang didn't come to report something important, I guess the emperor was sleeping soundly when you came back."

"Have you lost weight?" Lan Qi was worried.

Ziyu nodded: "That's a lot of weight loss. The servant and the little father-in-law who accompanied him said a few words, saying that the emperor eats food these days, but he always puts down his chopsticks without moving a few times. Can you not lose weight?" ?”

Several people chattered a lot of things again, Huanchun saw that the master's face was not good-looking, and hurriedly sent them away. It took a long time to hear the master saying to himself: "After the San Francisco incident, the empress dowager will not No matter how much he interferes in government affairs, in the heart of the emperor, his grandmother has always relied on him. With the empress dowager around, he feels that no matter how old he is, he will still be a grandson. When he occasionally wants to rely on or be lazy, his grandmother will I feel at ease. He doesn't talk about this dependence, but I understand it. "

Huanchun watched silently, then stepped back later, let Ziyu and Luzhu gather a few ingredients in the small kitchen, took out the food box, washed it and prepared it, and then returned to the master, quietly accompanying her Taking care of elder brothers and princesses, the whole day passed slowly, the sun was setting, and the sky was getting darker and darker. When it was time for dinner, Lan Qi stood under the window and looked at the sky, and said to herself: "Qingqing Palace Eunuch Liang is not as quick-witted as Eunuch Li when it comes to delivering meals, the emperor may not dare to persuade him to eat if he doesn’t say he is hungry.”

Huanchun whispered at the side: "Why don't we fry some side dishes that the emperor loves to eat? Today's small yellow rice porridge is delicious. It's fresher and better. Send it to the emperor. The emperor has a bad appetite. Bring in some Porridge and soup are good for the spleen and stomach."

Lan Qi waved her hand and said, "It's very late, I'm preparing now, when will I be able to send it to Qianqing Palace?"

Huan Chun said with a smile: "My servant feels that it will be difficult for you to see the emperor today, so I prepared the ingredients early on. As long as you nod, they can be prepared in the small kitchen with a few efforts, and the yellow rice porridge is also ready-made. Yes, it's hot."

Lan Qi looked at her in surprise, but she couldn't help being shy to see through her mind, and sighed: "Forget it, anyway, they have passed on no matter how ugly the words are, I will learn from Concubine Yi today, what's wrong?"

"That's good." Huan Chun was overjoyed, rolled up his sleeves and came to prepare meals, and ordered the others to serve the master first, and wait for Lan Qi to eat and change her clothes, and they will be delivered neatly in the small kitchen Two food boxes were lifted, and the aroma could be smelled through the box, and now it was sent to the Qing Palace, just in time for Xuan Ye to eat hot food.

There is a warm sedan chair at the door, I am afraid that it will be cold all the way outside, and the food box is also placed inside to go with Lan Qi. The sedan chair starts here, and there is Qianqing Palace, which happens to be delivered by Yikun Palace, because Eunuch Liang does not know when Reminding the emperor to have a good meal, he took this opportunity to enter the Nuan Pavilion to report that the concubine Yi had brought dinner, and asked the emperor if he wanted it.

Xuan Ye raised his head from the table, only to realize that it was already dark, he didn't feel hungry, but he could put down the things in his hands, and no minister came in with a sign at night, so he said: "Prepare the sedan chair."

Eunuch Liang was taken aback, and hurriedly asked where he was going. The emperor glanced at him: "When can I learn half of your master, I have to tell you everything before I can understand?"

Poor Eunuch Liang has just taken office, and the eunuchs and maids in the palace are all waiting for the new chief to set the rules, but now he can't take care of the emperor's affairs, so he has no time to greet the people in the palace.He just didn't understand how the master could understand what the emperor was going to do with just one look and one gesture. He has been following him for more than a month and is still figuring it out.

"Go to Yonghe Palace." Xuan Ye was not impatient either. Eunuch Li was by his side when he was a child. After decades of getting along, Eunuch Liang has only been by his side for a month, so he is not in a hurry.

Eunuch Liang got the order, and hurriedly withdrew to give orders. When he was outside, a young eunuch asked what to do with the dinner brought by the concubine Yi. .”

Here the imperial chariot hurriedly set off to go to the Yonghe Palace, and the warm sedan chair of the concubine De concubine also wobbled over there, but the two places took different paths, passing by unknowingly, Eunuch Liang followed the sedan chair. Thinking that the emperor would be happy to see the concubine De concubine for a while, and when he was feeling relieved, the little apprentice who was going to deliver the message in front ran out of breath and said, "Elder-in-law, please drive back, the concubine de concubine has gone to the Qianqing Palace, and it has been a long time since I left." .”

"Ah?" Eunuch Liang was so surprised. He didn't meet him during the day, and he missed it at night. In case the emperor has some court affairs to be busy with later, he should stay in the palace. It's nothing to see , Thinking about it in my heart, I followed the imperial chariot a few steps, leaned against the window and said, "Long Live Lord, Empress Defei is on her way to Qianqing Palace, do you think we should go back to Qianqing Palace, or send someone to let Defei Empress go back to Qianqing Palace?" Yonghe Palace?"

Xuanye was sitting and taking a nap, when he heard this, his heart warmed up inexplicably, after a little thought, he turned the imperial chariot around and walked on the path that Concubine De walked. The group of Yonghe Palace also got the news, Huan Chun rushed to stop the sedan chair, and wanted to help the master get off.

"What's the matter, the sedan chair is broken?" Lan Qi, who didn't know anything, followed Huanchun out of the sedan chair in a daze, and turned around to look at the food box in the warm sedan chair. When she looked up again, she saw the imperial chariot following behind. After steadily stopping, a familiar figure appeared in front of her eyes, and the emperor walked towards her at a leisurely pace. Just as Huan Chun was about to speak to Lan Qi, the people around him rushed out suddenly, but saw his master stepping on flowers The bottom of the basin ran towards the emperor, and everyone was dumbfounded.

Xuan Ye saw the person in front of him running, and he was also stunned. He couldn't help but stop, just waiting for her to rush over and bump into her arms, and Eunuch Liang was finally alert, and hurriedly yelled "Mr. The maids and guards all turned their backs.

Under the light of the orange lantern, Lan Qi's complexion became more and more beautiful, her heart was pounding, and she couldn't help panting after running for a few steps, "I won't miss it now."

"Running in such a hurry, what should I do if I sprained my ankle?" Xuan Ye said softly. The two had been separated for more than a month. He still remembered the hard work of the pregnant woman on the bed in the middle of the night. Existence, the woman who gave birth to life, is even more miraculous.

"Where is the emperor going, why did we meet by such a coincidence?" Lan Qi didn't know that Xuan Ye was chasing her, so she said frankly, "I am afraid that your dinner will not be good, so I made a few side dishes to send to you. Palace of the Qing Dynasty, if you have a place to go, go, and my concubine will come to see you tomorrow, anyway..."

"What's the smell on you?" Xuan Ye asked suddenly.

Lan Qi was startled, Xuan Ye leaned closer to her and smelled it again, and heard a low laugh beside her ear: "Is there my favorite fried pork with beans?"

"Yes...it was prepared by Huanchun." Lan Qi was very embarrassed, and just now she came all the way with a food box, covering it in the warm sedan chair, no wonder the aroma of the food was sticking to her clothes.Because the emperor had a bad appetite, Huanchun prepared home-cooked dishes that would not be served in the imperial meal. In the past, Xuanye would occasionally eat Huanchun's handicrafts in Yonghe Palace, so he naturally remembered.

Lan Qi backed away unconsciously, afraid that Xuan Ye would smell her breath, but she didn't know how serious she was when she backed away, and when her shoes sprained, she was about to fall, but Xuan Ye quickly pulled her back, frowned and blamed: "What are you hiding from?"

Lan Qi's face was flushed from holding back, she worked so hard to take care of her body, and dressed so carefully to make him look happy, why did she end up smelling like roasted beans after meeting her so easily?
