Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

Chen Chang's family has been imperial guards for nearly three generations, and she is considered a family of martial arts, but her stepmother is a daughter of a scholarly family. She listened to her stepmother reciting poems and singing songs when she was a baby. She grew up reciting the Book of Songs and Chuci Son.It's just that she lacks some spirituality and is not as bookish as her stepmother, but occasionally she can win a smile with a few words with the emperor, and she has a good temper, which makes her more likable to the emperor than the impetuous and stupid Yuan Ying.

Yuan promised to hate this little Changzai these days, but she just agreed and bowed her head a little bit in front of Mrs. Chen, and Concubine Hui didn't help her, so she could only watch helplessly as Mrs. Chen became more and more favored .

At this moment, Wang Changzai brought the sixteenth elder brother in his arms. He saw Chen Changzai standing by the desk, rolling up his sleeves and rubbing ink for the emperor. When he saw her coming, he just bowed his head and said, "Hello, Sister Wang."

Xuan Ye raised his head from the desk and looked at Wang with a little tiredness: "The tiger is very hot in autumn today, what are you doing out with the child in your arms?"

Mrs. Wang was a little unashamed, but still smiled and said: "The emperor came to Qixiang Palace before, and said that he wanted to see the little elder brother often in the future. The concubine heard that Qianqing Palace is not too busy today, so he hugged the sixteenth elder brother Here we come. Your Majesty, Elder Sixteen has grown up a lot, he is awake now, he probably knows that he is coming to see Emma Huang, so he is very happy."

Xuan Ye nodded, and asked her to bring the child over. Wang was very happy, hugged the child and went forward, raised his face to look at Chen who was standing beside the table, Chen Changzai smiled slightly and stepped back, Wang Changzai immediately walked away. Standing in front of her to separate her from the emperor, he carefully put the sixteenth elder brother into the emperor's arms.

But the child started crying as soon as he touched his hands, Xuan Ye was at a loss, Wang Changzai also looked embarrassed, no matter how much he coaxed him, he couldn't stop the child from crying, and in the end he had to take Elder Sixteen away.

"Go back earlier. The queen mother said that the child is too young to be taken around. The sixteenth elder brother is not yet a hundred days old. You have to be careful." The emperor casually ordered Wang to kneel down.

Wang Changzai was full of dissatisfaction. Seeing Mrs. Chen standing at the table again, she picked up a few drops of water from the water bowl on the inkstone as if no one else was there, and rolled her sleeves to grind it carefully. The emperor held the pen and said, "It's thicker." In response, he picked up a few more drops of water and asked gently, "Try again, Your Majesty?"

Wang Changzai also wanted to serve the pen and ink, but she seldom did this kind of thing. Unless she was pestering her facelessly, the emperor would let her touch it twice. Most of the time, she would just wait elsewhere until the emperor summoned her.Others only think that she is staying in the Qianqing Palace, but what she does in it, I am ashamed to say it out loud, even she is very lucky to have a child, all the servants who came over so many times made her pregnant. up.

Seeing Chen's attitude of serving the pen and ink, I am afraid that he has become familiar with everything in Qianqing Palace in the past few months, and the atmosphere between the emperor and her can also be seen that he treats Chen very differently from himself.But although the emperor didn't really treat her badly, if he said yes, it might not be good.

Xuanye looked up and saw that Mrs. Wang was still there, and just about to ask why he didn't leave, Eunuch Liang came in from the door, bowed and said, "The concubine De concubine asked someone to draw up lantern riddles for the Mid-Autumn Festival, saying that Chen Changzai had studied I would like to invite Chen Changzai to the Yonghe Palace for fun, knowing that Changzai is serving the emperor, I wonder if the emperor will let him go."

Xuan Ye smiled and said hypocritically, and told Chen Changzai: "Go, you just do a few simple things to amuse the children in the clan, and tell the empress, I will send her the difficult riddle later. .”

Mrs. Chen put down the things in her hands, and after Fushen agreed, she walked away from the emperor with lotus steps, and when she walked past Wang Changzai, she said with a smile: "Sister Wang, I'm leaving first."

In front of the emperor, Wang Changzai had no choice but to be generous. He nodded and let Chen Shi pass by. Grind the ink."

But Xuan Ye said: "No need." His original intention was to finish the work in hand and not need to write any more, but Wang Changzai thought that the emperor despised her for doing a good job, so his eyes turned red and he asked softly, "The emperor now , Do you despise concubines?"

Xuan Ye asked indifferently: "Why do you say that?"

Wang said timidly: "The emperor has always said that he should give the best to his concubines, and not let others bully his concubines, but..."

But Xuan Ye got up when he heard the words, and before Wang could finish speaking, he walked up to her, stretched out his hand as if to hug her, and seemed to caress her cheek.Wang Changzai was happy for a while, his face turned rosy, but the emperor's hand stopped in the air for a moment, and then he put it back behind his back. Instead, he leaned closer and said to her in a cold voice: "You already have everything that other people don't have." , if you are insatiable, be careful to be crushed to death by your own **."

"Your Majesty!" Wang Changzai was terrified.

Xuan Ye said: "I can give you whatever you want, unless I don't want to give it to you, don't want to give it to you, you'd better not make any decisions."

Wang Changzai was trembling: "The emperor misunderstood, the concubine never..."

"You can do it yourself." Xuan Ye put down these four words impatiently, and called Eunuch Liang in loudly, saying that he was going to rest. Eunuch Liang called his young apprentice to serve the emperor, while he bowed down and waited for Wang Chang. Said that the sixteenth elder brother was waiting outside the door, and it was very stuffy outside.

Wang Changzai couldn't stay here for a long time, and these slaves' words would be unpleasant after a long time, so he followed Mr. Liang out with a tense face, but he saw the maid of honor outside the door, saying to the eunuch in front of the door: "My family often leaves a handkerchief. The son is here with the Long Live Lord, and the handkerchief was a gift from Concubine Rong before, I beg my father-in-law to find it, it is very rare in my family."

The palace lady spoke happily, and Wang Changzai knew that the maids around the concubine who was favored by the palace all had such a proud face, and the people around her were like this before, but when she was not happy in the future, the servants around her were called Xi concubine. Not to mention, being beaten and tortured by her, not to mention a slave, even being abused by Xi Concubine herself, that is the fate of not being favored, and it is the past that she never wants to return to in her life.

At this time, as soon as the soft sedan chair came up ahead, the people in front of the Qianqing Palace saw that it was the sedan chair of Yuqing Palace, and rushed to meet them, but when they saw the Crown Princess getting off the sedan chair with a food box, Eunuch Liang had already left the prince behind. Chang Zai smiled in front of the princess and said, "Why is your empress here?"

The Crown Princess stood in front of the door and said: "The Crown Prince is worried about Huang Ama's poor appetite these few days, so he asked me to prepare some snacks, and he is still busy with Liubu, so he sent someone to urge me. Manager Liang will bring it in for Ama Huang to enjoy, it's all the Prince's wish, so I won't go in."

Director Liang took it carefully, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment, the servant has gone to answer the call, and see if the Lord Long Live has anything to say." As he spoke, he yelled at the people around him to take good care of the Crown Princess, and turned around holding the food box Just go in the door.

On the side of Wang Changzai and Sixteenth Brother, the Crown Princess clearly saw her, but they just glanced at her and stood up straight with their chins raised high. in the eyes.The sixteenth elder brother babbled a few times but did not attract the attention of the princess. Wang Changzai felt that he was underestimated. He was ashamed and hated. He didn't want to be ashamed. Before Eunuch Liang came out, he took people away.

In Qixiang Palace, Xi Concubine knew that Wang Chang was going out with Elder Sixteen in his arms without authorization, and wandered around waiting in the door. When she finally saw her come back, he immediately asked for Elder Sixteen to be carried back. Let the sixteenth elder brother go out, the queen mother will have to speak, after all, you are always in the status, you can't raise children, if you go out to show off like this, you are only afraid of causing trouble for yourself."

Ever since Wang Changzai became favored, Concubine Xi has never been cold-hearted towards her. The few words she said at the moment were just in a hurry, but Wang Changzai turned his face. Her weakness is that no one else heard what the emperor said just now in the Qianqing Palace, and she was still able to eat well in the Qianqing Palace and was favored by the concubine, so she fabricated what happened just now, and said coldly to the concubine Xi: "The emperor said, Thanks to my concubine, I took Elder Sixteen to ask him to take a look. The emperor is busy these days and doesn't care about us, but he is thinking about Elder Sixteen in his heart. Is it because you are too busy, Sister Xi Concubine? Take care of Elder Sixteen wholeheartedly, Elder Sixteen has been there for two months, and he doesn't seem to grow up at all?"

Xi Concubine's face turned pale, she stared blankly at her speechless, but Wang Changzai smiled leisurely: "The emperor said that Sister Xi Concubine was too busy, so he asked me to take the sixteenth elder brother by myself. Min Changzai has raised a princess by himself so far, this is not unprecedented, if the queen mother speaks to us, what will Min Changzai do? So, don't worry about it."

After saying this, Wang knocked off Xi Concubine's shoulder and walked in, Xi Concubine couldn't stand still and fell backwards, fortunately the maid supported her, the maid gritted her teeth in hatred, and complained: "Why did the master let her like this? "

But Xi Concubine said anxiously: "You have also seen that she can eat well in front of the emperor, and one day she leaves here, I'm afraid the younger brothers will follow."

However, in Qixiang Palace, Xi Concubine could still be fooled by Wang's few deceptive words, but it was a completely different situation outside.

At the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet on August [-]th, the elders and children enjoyed themselves happily. There were bursts of laughter at the banquet while guessing lantern riddles. It was the first time for everyone to hear many new riddles. Qi introduced Chen Changzai and said: "Among our sisters, there is another champion. He told us a lot of stories in the Yonghe Palace that day. You will be bored in the future. Let Chen Changzai come to Ningshou Palace." Let me tell you."

The Empress Dowager was naturally happy, thinking that Chen Changzai was so smart at a young age, so she rewarded her with one of her favorite plays. Chen Changzai was generous and without stage fright, like a rising star, full of beauty.Even Concubine Rong said softly to Lan Qi from below: "Chen Chang is advancing and retreating properly, but she is born with a smart heart. These days, Mrs. Wang is very embarrassing. Look at the bursts of murderous looks on her face."
