Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

Lan Qi's stature was a bit short of Xuan Ye's, and she wasn't tall enough even if she was wearing a flower pot, not to mention that she was only wearing soft-soled shoes when she went in and out. With a proud look, she said slightly unconvinced: "If the emperor has anything to do in the future, please discuss it with me first."

Xuan Ye smiled and nodded gently: "I must discuss it with you first."

But Lan Qi stared into his eyes, seeing the smile floating in his eyes, she couldn't help muttering: "The emperor's words are deceiving again."

Xuan Ye raised his hand and tapped her forehead lightly, and said with a smile: "If you don't believe me, what I say is meaningless, and you should also know that not everything can be discussed with you. I am with you, but I want to be with you every day The process can be compared with the government, all I want is the result."

Lan Qi put her chin back and lowered her head slightly: "Anyway, there is no sister for the emperor to betray her, and the concubine has nothing else to worry about."

"Who sold her?" Xuan Ye smiled helplessly, but took Lan Qi's hand and walked inside, saying, "It's a pity that you can't come here often, I will collect books in Wenhua Palace, and collect all the best books in the world." Set it here."

Lan Qi pulled Xuan Ye slightly, signaling that he was walking too fast, and she couldn't walk in such a hurry because of her big belly, Xuan Ye was shocked by her negligence, and the two walked slowly through the palaces side by side, Lan Qi smiled : "The emperor really thinks that his courtiers and concubines love to study knowledge? It's just a book that you flip through in your spare time, and now you don't like these serious knowledge about governing the country. If it is fresh and interesting, the book will look good."

Xuan Ye didn't take it seriously: "There is also learning there, but in the future when the children grow up, you can't understand what they say, right?"

Lan Qi glanced at him, the emperor had the future in his eyes, thinking of Yinzuo's name only made his heart tighten, and the words of the old mother were still in his ears. It is the foundation of the prince's future practice, but if the prince is not blessed, the position of the successor will change at any time. It is the belief of the emperor and the empress dowager in the inheritance of the throne. It is also these days that have troubled Lan Qi and made her confused. to the reason.

"Your Majesty, will my concubines be able to act coquettishly with you as before?" Lan Qi said this out of nowhere, just as Xuan Ye was about to lead her to the Heart Transmission Hall across the courtyard on the east side, he stopped and asked with a smile ,"What's wrong?"

"Lan Ying is only one of the reasons for the trouble this time. What matters is that after Yin Zuo left, the concubine tried her best to cheer herself up, but the harder she tried, the more confused she became. Suddenly, she didn't know where to go in her future life. Good." Lan Qi smiled peacefully, and when she said these words again, she was already strong enough, "On the one hand, I want to get close to you, imagining that I have no scruples like before, but I also think about my current status, and think about the Children, don’t dare to indulge your emotions wantonly. For you, you are always worrying about gains and losses between your husband and the emperor. When you are unhappy, you lose your temper, but you are afraid that you are the emperor. If you lose your temper like this, will it anger you? I will not be disgusted by you since then, even if it is a happy thing or an ordinary thing, I will not hesitate between your two identities all the time. Every time my mood fluctuates, I will continue to blame and reflect on myself afterwards, and I am happy in the end I can’t be happy about things, and I regret the grievances, the longer the days, the more and more my concubines get bored, and I don’t even want to see you, knowing that you are fine is enough.”

Xuan Ye listened very attentively, and didn't speak because he wanted to wait for her to continue. Sure enough, Lan Qi cleared her throat and said, "From now on, one thing will be one thing. When you are happy, you will be really happy, and if you are unhappy, you will be happy." I don't hide from time to time, my concubine can't be a virtuous person like Sister Rong and Concubine Hui. People are different from each other. What I want is to be by your side for a long time, but if you always Constantly regretting and then being afraid, constantly blaming myself for doing this or not, not to mention that if the emperor does not abandon my concubine, the concubine will have to give up first, if this kind of time goes on for a while, Wuya Lanqi will not be successful."

"Nonsense." Xuan Ye scolded her for the last sentence of "no way", with a smile on his face, he sighed softly, "All the women in the harem exist by my side like this, and they have to reflect on themselves every day. Whether your words and deeds will offend Shengyan, every day I have to think of ways to make me happier next time, and I will also be confused about the relationship with them, and even I will feel tired after getting along like that. Political marriage has its own existence I don't want to care about the value and significance, but not everyone is involved in politics. Although I don't like you because of your innocence and simplicity, this is indeed the reason why I can love you wholeheartedly and without any scruples. Since you are also Think about it, what happened in the past, what will happen now, didn’t we agree?”

Lan Qi smiled happily, held Xuan Ye's hand tightly, and replied solemnly: "Grow old together." Then she smiled quietly and firmly, "I know that I am not a woman who can stand shoulder to shoulder with you, so don't worry about those things." , as the Empress Dowager said, to take good care of you, to have a place of peace of mind when you are tired and upset, is the wish of my concubine, and it is also my responsibility."

Xuan Ye smiled happily, squeezed her hand tightly and said: "It's really stupid. It's been more than two months since I have comprehended these principles. You have always been different from me. You don't need to worry about those things. "When I was talking, I accidentally touched my stomach, and asked happily, "Seeing that you are in good spirits, I am very relieved. Don't think about other things. It is important to take good care of your body."

The sweet talk between the two of them was naturally inaudible to others, but when they arrived at the Hall of Passing Hearts, Lan Qi heard Xuan Ye ask her about the plan to worship Confucius here. : "The crown prince is about to leave the court, and he is planning the day when he will leave the court to give lectures. After that day, all kings and ministers will kneel twice and kowtow six times in front of the crown prince. Elder brothers and princesses are no exception. It's limited."

Lan Qi remembered that when she came to see the ruins of Wenhua Palace, she passed the original site of Yuqing Palace, the East Palace had not yet been built, but in a blink of an eye the prince had grown up and was about to leave the court to give lectures, and there was a difference between him and his brothers.What happened on the way back from Wutai Mountain in the past is still clear in front of my eyes. Although we saw each other in a limited number of days, and the banquet was just a few nods of greetings, Lan Qi still felt that that child made people feel lonely no matter what time he was.

The two of them just strolled around the Wenhua Palace, and one person and one sedan chair came to the Palace of Compassion. The Empress Dowager was naturally very happy. Maybe, now that Lan Qi is still hurting, she is so pitiful that she has no son. You love her more and take care of her more. You can laugh at the situation when you are twisted about any matter in the court. You have no patience with a woman. ?”

Xuan Ye said that her grandmother was eccentric, but the Empress Dowager laughed: "The imperial grandmother is also a woman, and she is your imperial grandfather's concubine just like Lan Qi. I understand all her thoughts, but Xuan Ye, your imperial grandmother may not understand everything. .”

Aunt Su Mala laughed beside her: "The master is so anxious these days. The servant girl is persuading her to fight with her teeth and tongue, but it's a small fight to make her feel happy. Seeing you and your mother have been stalemate like this, the servant girl really If you worry about it for a long time, it will hurt your feelings.”

While talking, Lan Qi came in with the palace maid serving tea. Although her belly was full, she still wanted to cook tea for the Empress Dowager herself. When the old man saw her belly, he remembered that Zhang had promised, and told Aunt Su Ma: "That promise In Jingyang Palace, Concubine Rong took care of me and made me feel at ease, but she followed Lan Qi in Yingtai, and then entered the palace and got on the dragon couch. Lost in hope, I will not tolerate her in the future if she breaks her promise and repays her kindness with revenge."

This sentence was said in front of Lan Qi and Xuan Ye, the emperor is acceptable, Lan Qi couldn't help being nervous, after that Xuan Ye went back to Qianqing Palace first, the Empress Dowager really said to her in private: "The heart of defense is indispensable. , don't be too nice to her, people can often abandon everything in the face of interests, who doesn't want to live a better life? What you did for her yesterday is no longer allowed."

Lan Qi didn't want to argue with the Empress Dowager for any reason, she was old, she just had to follow along, but how to treat Xing'er, Lan Qi already had an account in her heart, and today she made it clear to Xuan Ye that she must be loyal to her in the future. In her own mind, don't wear a mask to live hard, she will keep in mind the empress dowager's exhortation, but she will also face everything according to the life she wants.

Back from the Ci Ning Palace that day, Lan Qi brought a lot of rewards. It was the Empress Dowager who bought her younger sister a dowry. Think about He De and Neng of the Wu Ya family. There is even a dowry given by the Empress Dowager, no wonder Ama Erniang is grateful to her husband and feels indebted to herself.And Lan Qi and Xuan Ye untied their knots today, so they could calmly face their sister's marriage.

Two days later, Lan Ying entered the palace. The little girl who is about to get married is no different from before. Because she often enters the palace recently, she has more chances to meet her sister than in previous years. Qi looked at her younger sister's lively and cheerful personality with cold eyes, and believed Er Niang's words. This girl may not be bullied when she goes to Niu Hulu's house.

When the two sisters were talking, Xianfu Palace sent something, which surprised Lan Qi, and discussed with Huanchun: "Should I let Lan Ying go to Xianfu Palace, is there such a courtesy?"

Huan Chun didn't understand much either, so he took the rules of the common people's marriage and said: "You should go to see your sisters-in-law after you go through the door. There is no rule that you have to see the concubine at this moment. It's just that these rewards have been taken. It’s okay not to go to thank En, but it’s not convenient for you to move around, and it’s not suitable for Second Miss to go alone.”

Lan Ying listened from the side, and said nonchalantly: "Xie En is just a kowtow, what's the problem, the imperial concubine still eats me?"
