Concubine Mi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 108

After listening to Kangxi's words, the imperial concubine was stunned.Fourteenth brother, how could she adopt Concubine De's son?The two had a deep grudge, and these days because of Feng Yin's matter, the rift between them has deepened.

In addition, Concubine De's palace is extremely deep, and she regards the fourteenth elder brother as her lifeblood. If she adopts the fourteenth elder brother in her Chengqian Palace at this time, Concubine De will definitely hate her very much. In the end, The gain outweighs the gain.

What's more, she is looking at the fifteenth elder brother of the secret concubine, what is the fourteenth elder brother doing.These days, she saw that the emperor dotes on elder brother fifteen very much. Before the secret concubine was grounded, the emperor would go to the Qixiang Palace to visit elder brother fifteen every now and then. Every time he would reward him with something. Half of the secret concubine's favor was earned by fifteen elder brothers.

Therefore, raising the fifteenth elder brother under his name is definitely more cost-effective than the fourteenth elder brother.

After not hearing her voice for a long time, Kangxi frowned involuntarily, raised his head to look at her, and asked casually: "Why, the imperial concubine thinks Xiaosi is not good?"

Kangxi's voice was slightly cold, and it fell into the ears of the imperial concubine. She came back to her senses with a jolt, and smiled extraordinarily forcedly: "How come, the fourteenth elder brother is smart, and the emperor often praises it. The concubine feels very The fourth elder brother is excellent, the concubine is only worried about Defei's younger sister..."

What she said was somewhat true, but before she finished speaking, Kangxi interrupted: "You don't have to worry about Concubine De, you are now the master of the harem, and you are in charge of Fengyin. Little Fourteen can support you. Being in Chengqian Palace is also his blessing, Concubine De is a sensible person."

The imperial concubine stood there with a froze expression on her face. Just a light word from the emperor would become a hot potato to her.Even though what the emperor said is true, Concubine De is a sensible person.But no matter how understanding people are, they will not allow others to take away their own flesh and blood. Today's concubine De is not the little noble person she used to be, and she can only be manipulated by others.

Thinking of this, she felt even more inappropriate.

It's just that the emperor has talked to this point, so she can't shirk anymore, so she can only kneel down and thank her.

"My concubine thanks the emperor for his kindness."

Kangxi glanced at the imperial concubine who was kneeling on the ground, and raised his hand: "Get up."

After hearing Kangxi's words, the imperial concubine stood up, her heart seemed to be blocked by a stone, and she was not at all excited about having a son in vain.

She was a little confused, what does the emperor mean by this, how could he properly raise Concubine De's fourteenth elder brother under her name?

Kangxi looked at the extremely forbearing imperial concubine standing below, and curled the corners of his lips indistinctly: "Okay, you can rest if you are not well, I will go back to Qianqing Palace first."

With that said, he got off the steps and walked straight out of the hall.

"The concubine sent the emperor respectfully." The imperial concubine knelt on the ground and said respectfully.

After sending Kangxi away respectfully, the imperial concubine stood up with a solemn expression, walked back and forth in the hall, her mind was in a mess, and she lost her mind for a while.

She and the emperor have been sharing the same bed for so many years, but she can't figure out the emperor's temperament at all, and in addition, the emperor seldom stepped into the Chengqian Palace these years, she is even more unpredictable what the emperor has in mind Thoroughly.

The emperor first handed over the phoenix seal to her, and now he wants to raise the fourteenth elder brother under her name. All these things mean that Concubine De has lost the emperor's heart.

But if this is the case, why would the emperor turn over the brand of Concubine De, even though it was only once, it is enough to prove that there is still the status of Concubine De in the emperor's heart.

One must know that there are many concubines in this palace who have not seen the emperor for many years, if the emperor really does not want to see Concubine De, he will definitely not accommodate her.

"Yinzhen, Yinzhen, come, give Erniang a hug." On the soft couch in Yonghe Palace, Concubine De stood on the ground teasing the fourteenth elder brother who was sitting on the soft couch.

"Er Niang!" Elder Fourteen raised his head, his eyes were bright, and suddenly called Er Niang.

Hearing this, the smile on Concubine De's face deepened, she reached out to hug Fourteenth Elder Brother in her arms and kissed his forehead.

"You're so good, my mother's little Fourteen."

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the hall, and the court lady Cuizhu raised the curtain and walked in.

"Report to your empress, the fourth elder brother is here." After the maid finished speaking, she glanced at her empress cautiously. These three words will not be in a good mood.

Sure enough, upon hearing the maid's words, the smile on the corner of Concubine De's mouth froze there, she glanced at Elder Fourteen in her arms, and said: "Well, let him in."

"Yes." Cuizhu replied, then turned around and walked out of the hall.

Not long after, the fourth elder brother walked in from outside the hall.

Now the fourth elder brother is 14 years old, and he has grown a lot taller.

"My son greets Er Niang." The fourth elder brother knelt on the ground as soon as he came in, and respectfully greeted her.

Concubine De sat on the soft couch, just about to put down Elder Fourteen in her arms, Elder Fourteen burst into tears, Concubine De hurriedly hugged him in her arms and coaxed him: "Don't cry, don't cry, little ten Si is the most obedient, don't cry."

Concubine De hugged the fourteenth elder brother in her arms and kept coaxing her, completely ignoring the fourth elder brother who was kneeling on the ground. Her actions made the maids standing in the palace a little embarrassed.

I don't know how my own mother can be partial to this point, they are all my own flesh and blood, how can one go up and down.

The fourteenth elder brother cried and the mother would feel distressed for a long time, but if it was replaced by the fourth elder brother, the empress would not even take a look at it, she would only feel bored, and then she would reprimand him.

Of course, the fourth elder brother has never shed tears in front of his mother.No matter how his mother snubbed him, he always kept a well-behaved expression on his face.

Speaking of it, the fourth elder brother is also pitiful. When the fourth elder brother was born, his mother was just a little nobleman. According to the rules in the palace, only concubines and concubines above were eligible to raise their children.

Therefore, the newly born fourth elder brother was recorded in the name of the imperial concubine at that time, who was later Queen Xiaoyiren, and was not close to his own mother.But the fourteenth elder brother was brought up by the empress alone, so naturally he had to get closer.

The fourth elder brother knelt on the ground with no expression on his face, and he was exceptionally calm from the beginning to the end.

It wasn't until Elder Fourteen slowly stopped crying that Concubine De noticed that her other son was still kneeling on the ground.

Concubine De looked over in embarrassment, and said: "Get up quickly, your fourteenth brother is very noisy, you can't put it down for a while."

Hearing De Concubine's words, the fourth elder brother stood up and stood there respectfully, not responding at all to De Concubine's words.

The hall was silent, Concubine De looked at the fourth elder brother who was standing there respectfully, and asked casually: "How are these days at elder brother's place?"

"Everything is fine, I'm worried about Lao Erniang." The fourth elder brother replied respectfully.

"Since you're here, let's have dinner with Er Niang." Concubine De gave a glance to the maid next to her, and the maid immediately moved over.

"Yes." The fourth elder brother replied, and sat down at the table in a well-mannered manner.

Not long after, the maids and eunuchs came in with meals, and the table was full of extraordinarily rich dishes.

Concubine De sat at the table with her fourteenth elder brother in her arms, glanced at the fourth elder brother sitting in front of her, picked up a small piece of high-scallion crucian carp with her chopsticks, and put it in the fourth elder brother's bowl: "The high-scallion crucian carp in the imperial dining room is always It's excellent."

"Thank you, Er Niang." After the fourth elder brother thanked, he buried his head in eating. During the period, he only raised his head and picked up the food a few times.

"Emiang, I want it too!" Elder Fourteen shouted while waving his hands.

Concubine De lowered her head when she heard the sound, she couldn't hide the smile in her eyes: "Little Fourteen wants it too? Come on, Er Niang will give Xiao Fourteen a thorn in the side first, okay?"

"Okay, I'll listen to my mother." Elder Fourteen's voice was soft and very pleasant.

Concubine De smiled, took a piece of crucian carp and put it on the plate, picked it carefully several times, and then fed it to Xiao Shishi in her arms.

The fourth elder brother ate the rice in the bowl calmly, and finished the bowl of rice in a short time.

"Emiang, I've used it up, I'm going back to elder brother's homework first." Si elder brother stood up from the mountain and said respectfully.

As soon as the fourth prince's words came out, Concubine De paused slightly with her hand holding the chopsticks, and nodded.

After the fourth elder brother knelt down, he turned around and walked out of the hall.

No one saw that the fourth elder brother clenched his fists tighter and tighter. The maids and eunuchs of the Yonghe Palace only saw that the fourth elder brother calmly left after not staying for a while as usual.

After the fourth elder brother left, the smile on the corner of De Fei's mouth also faded.She knew that she was eccentric, but this eccentricity is not without reason.Her son is cold-tempered and has not been by her side since he was a child, how could she get close to him.

Didn't everyone say that parents all over the world are eccentric, and Xiao Shisi is her youngest son, so she naturally dotes on him more.The fourth elder brother is the emperor's son, and no one in the elder brother's office dared to treat her badly, so there is no need for her to worry about it.

All she needs is one little fourteen.

Besides, when she thought that the fourth elder brother had called Tong Jia's mother-in-law for so many years, she felt very nervous, as if she had eaten a fly.

Sometimes, when she is indifferent to the fourth elder brother, she even feels a sense of pleasure.Back then she was inferior to Tong Jiashi in every way, but now the son Tong Jiashi held in his palm and cared for him had to watch her face all the time, speaking of it, she still beat her.

Cheng Qiangong

As soon as Nanny Gui came back, she saw her own mother walking back and forth in the hall, with a particularly dignified expression on her face.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you?" Nanny Gui stepped forward, eyes full of worry.

"Nurse, Your Majesty, Your Majesty said that he will put Concubine De's fourteenth elder brother under my name."

As soon as the imperial concubine said this, Nanny Gui's heart skipped a beat. How could the good-natured emperor have such thoughts?
