Clearly, she doesn't want to be a concubine

Chapter 109
He heard himself asking himself again and again in his heart, so what if this person came?What can he do for her?What can she change him?

They can do nothing, change nothing.

He is very conscious that Umalu is different to him, but there are too many things ahead of her.

He loves his country more than her, and he loves his imperial grandmother and empress mother more than her.

He was so cowardly, incompetent and hypocritical, he realized at that moment that there was no difference between him and his imperial father, they were both cowardly and selfish.

Liang Jiugong came in and urged him: "Your Majesty, please greet me today..."

"Change."

He packed up all his thoughts and emotions well, and no one could see anything from his face.

Maybe it was because the thinking was interrupted, or maybe, the daytime belonged to the emperor, and the nighttime belonged to Aixinjueluo Xuanye.

After he put on the emperor's mantle, all his melancholy and pain were suppressed.

He rationally thought, yes, he will give Concubine De everything he can, but it still has to be within a certain degree.This was already the biggest concession he could make.

If it was what he had guessed, it was indeed that he was sorry for her.

He looked indifferently at the void.

People like him don't deserve love.

That being the case, why did he pray for love in the first place?To pray to a man who came only for him?
How ridiculous is this.

So be it.

He has never thought that he is smart, but hardworking, because he is afraid that he will be too stupid to harm the country and the people.So reflect on self-discipline from time to time, and see yourself as an outsider to make all decisions.

He doesn't see anything wrong with his current choices.

As an emperor, one should not be emotional.

But there will still be a kind of doubt and hesitation in some moments.

What did he do wrong that he has never been loved and chosen firmly by others.

He can become emperor only because he is the most suitable candidate.

His imperial father threw the most disgusting thing to him, a young, cowardly, ignorant child.

People will count him, flatter him, hurt him, fear him, but not love him.

Even the person who came for him is the same, she won't hurt him, but she won't love him either.

So, so be it.

It is said that the emperor is a loner, maybe he should be content with that.

But sometimes he can't help thinking, why should he be satisfied?Why should he be satisfied?

It is obvious that he is rich all over the world and everything belongs to him, but why is he not truly loved by others.

His biological mother didn't care about him; his imperial father loved Concubine Dong E more; his empress and grandmother chose him only because of trade-offs; the same was true for his ministers and concubines in the harem.

Therefore, when he has nothing, no one will love him.

He must be good enough and good enough to be loved and chosen.

He clearly owns the world.

He looked at his hand indifferently.

His hands were empty and he could hold nothing.

He has nothing.

No one really needs him, and no one really loves him.

He slowly exhaled the last breath of depression in his chest, and smiled faintly.

If not, forget it.

This country will be his love, and he will love it no matter what.

He walked out of the hall and looked at the sun spreading.

He wants his country to welcome sunshine.

He is Xuan Ye, Kangxi, the co-lord of this world, and this is his country.

He stepped forward.

After leaving the Qing Palace, Kangxi remembered what happened last night. He really planned to let the women of Wu Ya's family enter the palace to see Umalu, but at this moment, he remembered that Umalu was not in good health.

He said to Liang Jiugong: "You send someone to come and tell her that when she gets better, let her family members come to the palace to see her."

Liang Jiugong agreed.

Kangxi went to pay his respects.

Liang Jiugong asked Wei Zhu to take a trip, and met Baozhu who was rushing towards him on the way. Wei Zhu told Baozhu about it.

Baozhu breathed a sigh of relief: "Master De was also afraid that the family would be worried, and wanted to wait for his health to improve before letting the family in. No, let me go, please don't act like this."

She said with a smile: "After all, the emperor is sympathetic to the master, so consider the master first."

Wei Zhu smiled and said, "No."

The two chatted for a few more words before parting.

Wei Zhu watched Baozhu go back, thinking about Liang Jiugong's teaching, and sighed in his heart, Master really had better vision than them.

They are people from Qianqing Palace, they welcome and see them off.

On the surface, the emperor's favorites are indeed Master Tong Jia and Master Yi, but he still remembers that the Emperor thinks most about Master De.

As far as he is concerned, the more he considers for whom, the more he values ​​whom.

It does not matter the character, what is considered for him.

He clicked his tongue twice, and went back to Qianqing Palace to watch the little eunuch clean up.

After Kangxi had paid his respects from the Palace of Compassion and Peace, the ministers invited by Liang Jiugong had already arrived. He entered the room, took out policies and discussed with them one by one, either asking questions, questioning, or listening carefully.

Liang Jiugong brought tea.

The sun rises and the moon sets, and the days are as usual.

Umalu's body gained a bit of strength, and every now and then, he would greet the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager together with everyone in the harem, and also recognized a few more familiar faces, and said a few words, but they were not considered familiar.

Because Niuniu was raised by the empress dowager, the empress dowager would occasionally keep her after she paid her respects.

On this day, the Empress Dowager said: "Your temperament is too lenient, and you can't control your servants. In this way, I will give you Qiulan."

The Empress Dowager summoned Aunt Qiulan and said, "This is the year I first entered the palace. The Empress Dowager pointed it out to me because she was afraid that I would not be familiar with the rules of the palace."

Umalu embraced Niuniu, and hurriedly declined: "Since it was given to the master by the Empress Dowager, how can the slave take it?"

She smiled and said: "Besides, Sister Qiulan has been with the master for so long, and she gave it to a slave. Isn't a slave a good thing?"

The empress dowager didn't think so: "You're smart at the moment, but if you focus on disciplining your subordinates, how can you raise a slave who bullies the master. Accept it."

The empress dowager doesn't like empress Xiaoxian, and now she doesn't like Umalu too much, she feels that her methods are soft and not sharp enough, and Yifei's character is very attractive to her.

But because of Niu Niu, she got in touch with Umalu a few more times, and the empress dowager's hostility towards her was really much less.

She could see that Umalu didn't like to cause trouble. If he really caused trouble, he wouldn't be climbed on his head by a slave.

The Empress Dowager was teasing Niuniu while talking to Umalu: "If you are such a bully, you really beat him to death. Who will care about you, but you can't fart."

Umalu knew that the Empress Dowager was talking about Yuan Qingqing, she smiled and said: "He is also a son of man."

The empress dowager was not relieved when she heard the words: "You are a kind-hearted servant who only bullies the master like this. If you don't teach me, I will climb on top of you. What a shame."

She changed the subject: "If you don't have to find an excuse to kick him out of the palace, it will be better than now."

Umalu just laughed, with a bit of helplessness, and said coquettishly: "Master..."

The empress dowager thought brokenly: "The emperor really likes his emperor father."

She looked at her, but still kept saying, "The same sickness, the same kindness and weakness."

She couldn't figure it out: "Do men like this?"

The empress dowager really didn't understand.

She still remembered that the Empress Xiaoxian back then, Emperor Shunzhi also said, "She is soft and kind, and she is afraid that she will be wronged", so he greatly rewarded Empress Xiaoxian and her family.It seemed that she was really afraid that she would be wronged.

Umalu raised his eyes to look at the empress dowager, and said coquettishly: "Master~ stop talking, the servant will take over."

The Empress Dowager accepted the tone, and said after a while: "I don't blame the Emperor, if I were him, I wouldn't be able to bear it either."

Umalu smiled, but did not answer.

Sister Qiulan stepped forward to salute and stood behind Umalu.

The empress dowager raised her chin: "Qiulan has been with me for a long time after all. Tell her to take care of the palace for you. Don't be a master every day. A master is not a master, and a slave is not a slave."

"it is good."

The empress dowager asked Na Lantu to hold out ginseng to her: "I heard that you are in poor health, so make up for it. I have already told the emperor, tell him not to bother you."

Umalu asked Liuli to take it, and said: "The master is really kind to the slave."

She said: "The slave has copied the "Medicine Master Sutra" several times these days, and after returning home, someone will send it to the master at night, and enshrine it in front of the Buddha, so that the masters will be free from illness and disaster."

"You have a heart." The empress dowager was very satisfied when she heard the words, and she added another sentence, "Niu Niu is almost two years younger, and the emperor hasn't named her yet, so you should urge him when you have time, don't spend all day Busy with state affairs, but also take care of the children."

"Yes."

The empress dowager seemed to remember it suddenly, and said: "The emperor told me that your next child, whether it is Gege or elder brother, will be raised by your side."

Having said that, everyone knows that this is their promise, and it is a great honor for Umalu to have his elder brother by his side.

"Thank you, master." Umalu smiled.

Niuniu is now more than one year old, and she can already say simple words: "Hungry, hungry."

Na Lantu asked the nurse who was serving Niuniu to carry her down.

The empress dowager looked at the sun: "You go back first today, I won't keep you."

"Yes, the slave will leave."

Umalu retreated, and Aunt Qiulan followed her.

The Empress Dowager looked at her back and asked, "What do you think of her?"

"The concubine is benevolent and weak." Na Lantu replied.

Weak, kind, cowardly.

The empress dowager nodded first, then shook her head at last, looking at the sunlight at the door, she spoke for a long time.

She said: "People who are benevolent and have no means will only be eaten up in the harem."

She pursed her lips and said in a sarcastic tone: "She is a smart person who can bend and stretch."

The benevolence and weakness of ordinary people is just stupidity, which will only make them die faster; while the benevolence and weakness of smart people is cotton with a hidden knife. Before you touch his bottom line, you will never know what he will do. How sharp is that knife hidden in your cotton.

The empress dowager said slowly: "It's hard to find someone smarter than her in the entire harem."

She said in a joking tone: "Believe it or not, she sold people, and others have to count the money for her."

Na Lantu smiled and said: "The slave doesn't understand these things, but the master must be right."

The Empress Dowager waved her hand: "No, you understand. Concubine Rong, Concubine Hui, and Concubine Huang Guifei are in charge of the affairs of the Six Palaces, and some people talk about them in private."

The Empress Dowager took a sip of tea: "Concubine Yi's scheming temperament is also disliked behind the scenes. But how many people in the harem have you heard bad things about her? Whoever mentions it will only remember that she loves to be quiet."

The Empress Dowager gently put down the cup, and said in a neutral tone: "You and I don't hate her that much anymore."

Na Lantu laughed embarrassedly, and she said: "I don't know, I only know that once Master De stands in front of me, even if I want to get angry, I can't get angry. I calm down immediately."

The empress dowager suddenly remembered that the first emperor Shunzhi had read a few sutras to her before he completely fell out with her.It's just that she was young at that time and didn't understand.Now, somehow, I suddenly remembered, and understood at that moment.

"The highest goodness is like water. Water is good for all things without fighting for it. To deal with the evils of everyone, it is more like Tao." She murmured.

She withdrew her gaze and said softly: "I went to see the Empress Dowager a few days ago, and the Empress Dowager advised me not to divorce the Emperor because of her, and let me treat her better."

"Right now, there are a few people who still remember the battle she had before she was enthroned."

Na Lantu was shocked suddenly, in the 18th year of Kangxi, Concubine De was only concubine, and now it is only 24 years of Kangxi, but in five or six years, the entire harem has lost hostility towards Concubine De.

Who didn't hate this German concubine so much?One bite at a time.I can't wait to eat its flesh raw.

But just as the Empress Dowager said, those who are competing for favor in the palace now hate Concubine Yi even more for being favored, and they don't even remember what happened at that time.

If the empress dowager hadn't mentioned it today, she wouldn't have remembered it.Even when the empress dowager mentioned it, she subconsciously thought that it must have been the virtuous master's last resort to cause the situation like that back then, and it must not have been her intention.

The next moment, the empress dowager also said the same thing: "Even if I mentioned it myself, now I still feel that it must have been her last resort, and it must not have been her intention. Maybe it was the same time when Abu married me into the It’s the same as the Forbidden City. How could she choose?”

The two masters and servants fell silent.

Na Lantu mentioned: "Master also sent Qiulan away..."

"Yes..." The Empress Dowager replied, "Yes..."

The two masters and servants remained silent.

Until the fifth elder brother Yinqi came in with a kite and interrupted the silence.

"Grandmother flying a kite with her grandson."

"well."

In the afternoon, Umalu really sent Liuli to send ten copies of the "Medicine Master Sutra" that she copied by herself to the Palace of Mercy.

The Empress Dowager glanced at it, and found that the handwriting was not very good, but neat and tidy. When people read it, they felt that the person who copied it must be a man of character.

The Empress Dowager turned a few pages and sighed: "The Emperor has protected her very well."

Na Lantu followed around and listened quietly, and then according to the Queen Mother's order, sent the copied scriptures to the Buddhist hall for worship.

Since Sister Qiulan entered the Yonghe Palace, the new official took office immediately and became very angry, and she had to establish rules in a hurry.

　Oh, I don't know if you've ever met someone like that in your life, I have.

　　That's the kind of thing, he has the power to calm people.It's really that no matter how upset you are, no matter how bad you are, you will gradually calm down in front of him.
