Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

Because the princess was crying, the maids and eunuchs were all in a hurry to find a puppy for the princess. The little thing jumped back and forth, and suddenly ran to the place where the medicine was broken, just sniffed and licked it on the ground, and died.

The atmosphere in the room was very heavy, Xuan Ye hugged his daughter, Wen Xian was still sobbing on his shoulder, the little girl was still immersed in the fear that Er Niang was going to beat her, she never noticed the strange changes on her parents' faces, she didn't know her Huang Ama's face was already ashen.

Lan Qi stayed for a moment after closing the window, but she soon came to her senses, turned around and looked at the father and daughter, and opened her arms involuntarily. Xuan Ye knew what she meant, so she carried her daughter into Lan Qi's arms But the little princess found herself in the hands of Er Niang, thinking that she was about to be beaten, she was so frightened that she struggled and cried, and stretched out her hands to Ama to hug her, but soon found out that Er Niang didn't beat her or scold her. She, just took her in his arms and hugged her tightly.

The crying in the room gradually subsided, and occasionally there was a slight sobbing sound. Wen Xian finally calmed down beside Er Niang, and then heard Jiao Didi's confession: "E Niang is not angry, Wen Xian will be obedient in the future."

Lan Qi's heart softened, she held her daughter's chubby cheeks, pouted and said to her, "What if my mother sees you beating someone or someone comes to complain next time, what should I do?"

The proud little princess blushed, pouted and wanted to cry again, but Er Niang rubbed her face and frightened her: "If you refuse to answer, you can spank now."

Wen Xian cried out again, weeping and promising that he would not make mistakes in the future, so Er Niang hugged her and patted her, told her a lot of reasoning, and promised her that she would not be punished this time, and even coaxed her that the puppy was gone, and she would give another She got another one, coaxed the little girl to smile, and then let the wet nurse take it.

During these hours, the emperor had been outside listening to the reports of the guards below, speculating that the medicine on the ground contained a poison that could seal the throat with blood. Seeing that Princess Wen Xian's maid of honor had already been taken down, lest she might be suspected of committing suicide, she gagged and tied her hands and feet to watch closely.

Xuan Ye went back to Lan Qi's room. She was resting with her eyes closed. When Xuan Ye approached, she opened her eyes and smiled faintly: "The emperor is not busy at the moment. I have been delayed here for a while. My concubine is fine. Wen Xian No more crying."

Xuan Ye said: "I'm not busy."

Lan Qi smiled: "Then how does the emperor plan to deal with this matter?"

The emperor's brows trembled, the distrust in the eyes of the person in front of him made him feel guilty, he didn't speak for a while, and looked at each other quietly, finally Lan Qi said first: "I'm afraid to investigate, who is it after the investigation?" The forces behind it are causing trouble, and the foundation of the court cannot be shaken, the emperor is afraid of throwing a mouse, we must put the overall situation first, and my concubine understands."

With hatred in Xuan Ye's eyes, he grabbed Lan Qi's hand with one hand and exerted a little strength, causing her to tense up involuntarily. The emperor said, "No matter who I find this time, I will give you a piece of paper." Confession."

The expression on Lan Qi's face relaxed, her smile was no longer so hypocritical, and she was truly relieved from the heart.In fact, before Xuanye entered the door again, she didn't just close her eyes and meditate, she went through the matter over and over again in her heart, and finally decided not to admit to her face and complain in her heart like before, and told herself that if the emperor still Taking into account the overall situation, she couldn't give her a real explanation, so she let herself and Xuan Ye calm down for a while, otherwise she would be confused and even collapse sooner or later when she had to deal with everything about him in the days to come.

She thought, instead of going that far and doubting each other's feelings, it's better to be frankly unhappy. Unhappy for a while, it will always pass, at least not forcefully distorting her mood.

But this time, Xuan Ye told her categorically that he would give her an explanation, but at the moment of this sentence, Lan Qi changed her mind. The guards also don't go around talking nonsense, originally they were worried that the Empress Dowager would be unhappy, but now they have other plans.

"Can the emperor leave this matter to my concubine?" Lan Qi's eyes gradually became full of vitality, no longer as gloomy as before, and she held Xuan Ye with her backhand and said, "The last time in the Xianfu Palace, the concubine did it." It's a mess, the empress dowager and you both want the concubine to try the depth of the harem, then this time, you will continue to watch from the sidelines, let the concubine seek justice for yourself, if it doesn't work again, you Let me help you one last time, and my concubines will never think about such things again, and will hide behind you when encountering anything, and will not worry about it for the rest of my life."

These words made Xuan Ye laugh, and said angrily: "Why talk about the whole life, you always eat in one bite, I don't want you to rush for success, there is still a long way to go, just take it slow."

"Then the emperor agreed?" Lan Qi became inexplicably excited, as if gearing up to go to the battlefield.

"I agreed." Xuan Ye nodded, and said again, "Xiao Liangzi has been following me to do things related to the Yonghe Palace. He is quite respectable in the palace now, and he will probably hold the position of Director Li in the future. This time you will If you send him, even if he becomes the manager in the future, he will still belong to you. In the future, if you take care of the affairs of the Sixth Palace, with his help, many things will be easier to handle.”

"I'm afraid that the empress dowager is worried about hurting her body, so I don't want people to tell the outside world. The emperor should not tell the emperor's grandmother. The concubine will tell her about it in the future. Anyway, no one was hurt this time." Lan Qi's mood gradually improved. , the smile on his face became more natural, and he said confidently, "Actually, even without Wen Xian's trouble, the medicine would have been discovered. Now Huanchun gives the medicine to the concubine, and she has to check it before taking it. Everyone is careful, this little trick will not hurt the concubine."

"It's hard work for you to be on guard like this. Why do you have to do this?" Xuan Ye is not relaxed, and he always fears and hates the strife in the palace. It doesn't matter if it is the power behind it. Only with a strong heart can he kill others painfully, and what should he, the emperor, do to put an end to these things?

As an emperor, he also has his helplessness, which one he prefers and which one he neglects, and his own faults, but these are not enough to be an excuse to kill people, but when everyone commits a crime, they will blame the emperor. Who did he go to to evade the reason?

"This is also the responsibility of the concubine." Lan Qi reassured Xuanye in turn, "The harem of all dynasties has always been like this. The emperor understands better than the concubine. We have agreed to face it together. This time, can you promise to give the concubine the responsibility?" With just one explanation, Chenqie will be very satisfied, and whether or not she can find the last step in the investigation depends on Chenqie's own ability."

Xuan Ye was not particularly happy, and asked her instead: "Recently, you have become more and more concerned about these things. I am not afraid that you will become rich, but that after living such a life, you will no longer be as comfortable as before. comfortable."

"The concubine has been protected by you and the empress dowager for more than ten years. It's time to spread your wings and protect the children yourself." Lan Qi's eyes flashed with sadness, and her voice became softer. The concubine will never forget it for the rest of her life."

"that matter……"

"The concubine understands, the past is the past." Lan Qi sighed slightly, "The emperor also has the emperor's difficulties."

Xuan Ye frowned, but this time he shook his head and said, "Sooner or later, I will give you an explanation for that matter."

Lan Qi didn't force her anymore, she just smiled lightly: "The emperor's heart, my concubine understands."

The fact that someone in Ruijingxuan was poisoned by the concubine's medicine did not come out. Changchun Garden now has a simple population, which is not as crowded as in the Forbidden City. It is not difficult to hide one thing, and the accompanying Most of the concubines are on good terms with Lan Qi, not those who like to gossip. After two or three days, no one mentions this matter, even the people in Ruijingxuan will forget it.

This day, Lanqi was in good health, but the weather was getting warmer and she had to cut down her clothes. The robes worn by the Empress Dowager in the spring had not been changed in time because she fell ill. Now, please come to Jue Chan nobleman to help. Jue Chan is best at needlework female red, she is beautiful, and the work she does is clean and neat.

But seeing Jue Chan's needles and threads in her hands, Lan Qi was attracted by the rouge on her forehead to cover up the scars. She didn't know how she did it. She used the rouge to draw flower patterns on the scars, which seemed real and fake. On the eyebrows, a casual glance is enough to attract people, but if you look closely, it will look even more charming against her naturally beautiful face.

"Can't the scar on the forehead go away?" Lan Qi asked, "I heard that there are medicines for scars in the imperial hospital. The women in the palace cherish their skin and can't tolerate a little bump. Of course they will develop such a medicine. Come on, do you want me to ask you a question?"

Jue Chan shook his head with a smile, raised his hand and rubbed the needle between the buns slightly, and politely declined: "The concubine thinks this is very good, does the empress think it is too eye-catching, just because the people in the garden are simple now, and there is no gossip like that in the palace. The concubine dresses up when she is in a good mood, and if she returns to the Forbidden City in the future, she will definitely not be dressed like this to attract attention."

Lan Qi said casually: "But if you are attracted by the emperor at this moment, no matter how simple and simple you are back in the Forbidden City, you will still attract people's attention."

Jue Chan's eyes flustered, and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty misunderstood, this concubine is just in a good mood, seeing the spring scenery in the garden..."

It was only then that Lan Qi realized her slip of the tongue, and hurriedly said: "You and I are both concubines in the harem, and our bounden duty is to serve the emperor, and the emperor likes you, so I should treat you magnanimously, that is my duty, What's more, I know you so well. Besides, there are always all kinds of people around the emperor, so why should I bother with you? It was just a joke."

Jue Chan hurriedly said: "The concubine is worrying too much, but the concubine should be cautious in words and deeds. In front of you, I can say frankly that the concubine is not disrespectful to the emperor and disdains favor, but feels that if she accepts kindness, she will truly treat him. The emperor's disrespect."
