Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

449 The Last Days of Mother and Child

Lan Qi patiently waited for Xuan Ye's answer, but the emperor seemed to be eating the lily soup without distraction, but in fact he frowned slightly unconsciously, as if he was thinking about his question. .

Prince An Fujin, who came to the palace today to pay respects, is Prince An's stepmother, a well-known family, and the prince's grandmother is a direct sister. After losing her husband in February, she kept clothes at home. Today is considered to be bringing her daughters-in-law to pay respects to the Queen Mother. .Before they entered the door, the Queen Mother told Lan Qi that it was not easy for these royal family members, they often had to walk around with the palace to make them appear dignified, otherwise if there was no longer a family member who could play an important role in the court after a long time, My son, it's easy to get frustrated.

Prince An used to be a great hero for the emperor to pacify the San Francisco. Now that he has not received the emperor's attention after his death, everyone finds it strange. Lan Qi is also aware of this, and she doesn't know how to deal with the royal family. The queen mother asked her to spy on the emperor in private The tone of the Queen Mother did not want to do unnecessary things and cause trouble for the emperor.

"Treat each other with courtesy when you come here. You don't have to be too affectionate. There are so many clansmen, are you busy?" Xuan Ye drank the lily soup in one gulp. Lan Qi wanted to call the maid to bring water to wash, but he laughed. He leisurely took the bowl in front of Lan Qi and ate half of the bowl with a great appetite before putting it down. After washing his hands and rinsing his mouth, he continued, "The previous matter has nothing to do with you, and I don't want to do it with them. I can't tolerate the fact that the men in the clan can't succeed in the court, and if you let a woman come to the palace to play the autumn wind, don't be foolish and learn from Concubine Rong."

Seeing that the emperor was not in a bad mood, Lan Qi felt relieved, and joked, "Everything is fine with Sister Rong, but what the concubine can do is not reassuring?"

The maids retreated, Xuan Ye slapped her on the forehead, and blamed: "That night you punished a few promised and official ladies to kneel on the long street, and you lit up lanterns to attract mosquitoes, and they were bitten terribly. You are so ruthless, I can't even imagine that you can do such a thing."

Lan Qi tut-tsk: "The concubine is negligent. She is someone who has served the emperor, and the delicate skin and tender meat have to be preserved until the emperor is lucky. In the end, the mosquitoes bite her all over her body. The concubine is too cruel."

Xuan Ye glared at her angrily, but she quickly crawled behind her, kneading his shoulders vigorously with her soft hands, and said solemnly, "The emperor only sees their flattering smiling faces at you, just look It’s abominable how many people they recite. You said that if Wang Changzai ate those soups mixed with muddy water, wouldn’t you scold his concubines to death? Like Chen Qie, who used to hide under the protection of the Palace of Compassion and Peace all day when she was weak, and Chen Qie was not that kind and didn't have the time to take care of her, if she couldn't be restrained once, she would be ruthless next time, I don't believe there are people who are not afraid of death."

Xuan Ye frowned and said nothing, the person behind him leaned softly on his shoulders and said: "The emperor attracts the bees and attracts the butterflies, and the concubine will take care of you. Whatever the concubine does, you have to give the concubine face."

"Say something well, you have to say it so that people hate you." Xuan Ye was angry.

"Then do you hate it?" Lan Qi walked around to look at him with a smile, but she pecked lightly on the pink face, and he said with love and hatred, "What can I do with you? I have no conscience, I will take care of you How many things have happened, and it is disgusting to say such words."

Lan Qi sat down beside him with a smile, half leaning in her arms and said: "The days are still going on, there will be more newcomers in the palace, there will be no Wang Changzai, there will be Li Changzai and Zhang Changzai, concubine fuck An endless heart."

As soon as the words fell, people stopped him, Huanchun outside was about to bring in melons and fruits, when he heard the laughter begging for mercy from the door, he didn't dare to come in to disturb him for a while, and sent everyone around him away.

Half an hour later, I heard the empress calling for someone. When I went in, I was waiting for the emperor to wash and dress. I was going back to the Qianqing Palace in a short time. The master sent the emperor to the door and said: "The emperor stopped by to see the imperial concubine, and then go back." .”

Xuan Ye said: "Goodbye to the ministers, I will go to accompany her at night, and I have something to say to her."

Only then did Lan Qi restrain her smile, and said softly: "The imperial doctor said that my mother is well these few days, but it is just an illusion, her body is still getting weaker day by day, so weak that she has lost the strength to get sick, so she looks stable, and I want you to The concubine is always ready."

The emperor was a little bit stronger, and reassured Lan Qi: "You have time to talk more, your fate is different from others."

After saying this, Sheng Jia left.Not long after, people from Ningshou Palace said that Princess Wen Xian would come over. Knowing that the emperor would not know if it was convenient or not, the Queen Mother patted them to ask. Say come back tomorrow.

In Ningshou Palace, Wen Xian held the toy sent by Prince An Fujin in his hand, and promised to take it to Yonghe Palace to play with his younger siblings, but Er Niang went back first, she waited for a long time and saw no movement, The Empress Dowager pestered the imperial grandmother to go to the Yonghe Palace, but she couldn't resist her so she came to ask, but she was rejected anyway.

The little princess was very disappointed, and she ignored the ten elder brothers who were also in the Ningshou Palace when he asked her to play with her. Seeing the ten elder brothers happily playing with toys, the little girl was sulking with her mouth pursed aside, and the queen mother came to urge them to eat. Dim Sum, seeing Wen Xian like this, couldn't help but feel distressed again, and couldn't bear her to be unhappy, so she told the wet nurse and the palace maid: "Take the princess, don't tell the princess to quarrel with her mother-in-law, just say it's my intention."

Grandmother's spoiling, Wen Xian saw that there was nothing impossible in Wen Xian's eyes, and happily followed the wet nurse to Er Niang's place. When she entered the door and asked her, her mother was in the house of her younger siblings. She ran to the door, and was about to shout When I heard Er Niang, I heard my mother saying to my sister: "My sister is here and you are going to make trouble again. The quarrel makes Er Niang have a headache. Er Niang will sleep with you after playing for a while, and stop looking for my sister, okay? Xiao Chen'er, please be good. , I can’t learn how domineering my sister is.”

Wen Xian was stunned when he heard that, and the nurse behind him followed, and wanted to ask why the little master didn't come in, but she turned around and walked down the steps, sitting down on the steps, not crying but just wiping her tears, she looked really pitiful.

Lan Qi heard Luzhu report that the princess was crying outside, she was very confused, and asked her daughter when she came, and Luzhu said just now, she was scared, afraid that it was her own words to coax her little daughter, and told her to listen.

He hurriedly taught his sister to the wet nurse, and hurried out to coax her. When she went out, she saw Wen Xian sitting under the steps, curled up and buried her face. Her wet nurse and court ladies couldn't help her, they just stood aside.

Lan Qi walked down the steps and sat next to her daughter. Although the two words she said unintentionally just now sounded like nothing wrong, but to the child, it must be hurt, and her daughter is so proud, how can she listen to it? Such words.

"It's so dirty on the ground, such a beautiful dress is about to get dirty." Lan Qi poked her daughter's waist, Wen Xian was afraid of tickle, twisted his body to dodge, with teardrops on his face, pouting his mouth full of grievance, sobbing Said casually, "Emiang likes my younger sister, but not me anymore."

Lan Qi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, it was her who said the wrong thing, she could only let her daughter act like a spoiled child, and hummed while hugging her, the little girl agreed to any request, told her over and over again that she would not favor her sister or sister, proud little princess I just let my mother go, and quickly forgot the tears just now, and ran back to play with my sister, but Wen Chen, who had finally calmed down, was made a fuss by her sister, and the two girls were laughing and laughing for a long time and refused to be quiet.

This time it really caused Lan Qi a headache, but Yinti and Yinxiang were very obedient. She got rid of the two girls and came to her sons' room. Crooked over.

Originally Huanchun and the others didn't want to disturb her, who knew that the imperial concubine's illness had repeated in the middle of the night, Lan Qi was awakened from a dream, and when she hurried over, Xuan Ye was standing in the outer hall in a daze, seeing her coming, she just said : "It's so late, there is an imperial doctor here, let's go back."

When the emperor said this, Lan Qi knew that the imperial concubine was not in danger, she leaned into the inner hall and saw Yinzhen sitting on the side of the couch, the imperial concubine looked at him weakly, the mother and son didn't know what to say, Xuan Ye was at her He said behind his back: "Tomorrow, Yinzhen's class will continue to be suspended, and I won't be able to miss the homework for a month or two, but it will probably be the last days of their mother and son."

Lan Qi nodded, too sad to speak, while Xuan Ye said: "I also lost my mother at his age, you have to be good, and don't let him lose it again."

"Yes."

"What do you think about the Empress Dowager?" The emperor suddenly asked this sentence without warning, Lan Qi was stunned, and Xuan Ye pulled her away for a while, and asked her again, "A phoenix robe is not enough for her to be consummated. I know."

That night, the fourth elder brother slept next to the imperial concubine, the emperor and concubine De talked for a long time outside, after that Sheng Jia returned to Qianqing Palace, while she stayed in the outer hall for the whole night.The next morning, the fourth elder brother came out and saw his mother sitting outside, and was so distressed that he blamed the maid for not serving her wholeheartedly, but the tired Lan Qi said to her son: "I don't worry about you being inside."

In the blink of an eye, it was July, and although the weather was getting cooler, Concubine De finally fell ill due to overwork and was bedridden for two or three days. Fortunately, it was just a minor disturbance of the wind and cold, but it also scared Xuanye and Yinzhen half to death, facing her husband With her son's reproach, she feels warm and guilty in her heart, the only thing she can do is to get well quickly, and she can support their seemingly strong hearts.

Fortunately, the palace has been very peaceful these days. Compared with Lan Qi, Concubine Rong is more tactful in dealing with various trivial matters, and she can spare time to visit Lan Qi who is ill. .

On the third day of junior high school, the emperor took his sons to the school field to compete in riding and shooting. The eighth elder brother fell down on his knee when he went up the steps a few days ago. Although his walking was not hindered, the imperial doctor told him to take it easy, so he did not follow his brother and his father. Go, I have been studying in the study for a long time, and then I am going back to Changchun Palace.

When I went out, I saw a child and a few eunuchs waiting by the side of the road, and when I saw it clearly, I ran over. Only then did Yinhu know that it was the tenth brother, and the tenth elder brother ran up to him and said, "Brother, are you going back?" ?”

Yinhu asked: "Why are you not in Ningshou Palace, does the imperial grandmother know that you are coming out?"

Brother Ten shook his head: "A few aunts and aunts are talking to the emperor's grandmother. I don't like to play with those girls, so I came to find mynah."

Yinhu smiled gently: "You shouldn't have run out by yourself, the little eunuch who followed you will also be punished." But just after he finished speaking, his younger brother suddenly hugged his neck, bit his ear and said softly: "Mynah , I want to see my mother-in-law."
