Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

Although Concubine Hui was choked by her son's words, it is true that the emperor reused the eldest son at the moment. In addition to the setbacks of Prince Yu and Prince Gong last year, the emperor had a tendency to stop relying on his brothers and instead train his son. An elder brother, if his son can work hard and achieve something, he will have a bright future.

Concubine Hui knew that although Taizong's eldest son, Prince Su Hauge, was a concubine, he made great military achievements for Taizong. If Dorgon hadn't obstructed Taizong's sudden death, the history of the Qing Dynasty might have been rewritten. Naturally, if Prince Su had won the throne , there is no current concubine Hui and elder brother, but Concubine Hui hopes that her son can rewrite the future history.

"It's too late to remind you. I'm afraid the prince will wait for your baby to be born. If it's a girl, you should rush to fight for the title of the emperor's eldest grandson." The prince had a big quarrel with the mother and the son, and she didn't want anything to happen again to cause a estrangement between the mother and the son. At this moment, Yinti was talking about this, so she had to take a step back and agree, "I don't care about the two of you in the future." No matter, you coax your Fujin well and tell her that I won't force her to have children anymore."

Only then did Yinti breathe a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "If Er Niang really loves her, she wouldn't dare not be filial. I'm not in Beijing, so please take care of me."

Concubine Hui said impatiently: "She doesn't even enter the gate of the Forbidden City, why should I take care of her? Don't blame Er Niang for talking too much, your eldest daughter-in-law doesn't do what she should do, and your Empress Ama will also be upset. I promise you that you won't embarrass her anymore, but you should try to persuade her anyway, she has to stand up for you in the relationship between the clan."

While talking, a maid came in from outside, Concubine Hui sullenly asked what was important, the maid reported: "I heard a rumor from outside, saying that the emperor just issued a decree to confer the title of Princess Heshuo Rongxian on the second princess, and to marry him to Borziji of the Bahrain Department." Terry."

Eldest brother wondered: "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Concubine Hui immediately informed the maids to prepare a congratulatory gift, and she had to go to Jingyang Palace to congratulate her in person. Although marrying her daughter was inevitably sad, it was also a great joy. Regardless of the relationship between her and Concubine Rong, after all, they had been in love for more than 20 years.

When the elder brother left the Changchun Palace, the harem was already very lively. Last year, when he got married, the princesses and elder brothers were looking forward to the excitement this year. Sure enough, since the third elder brother was accused of marriage, the second princess was very happy. Soon there will be news, the fourth elder brother and the third princess will be next, and the fourth elder brother's Fujin has already had a candidate, and outsiders are wondering whether it will be before the third princess gets married.

At this time, Jingyang Palace is full of guests, Princess Rongxian naturally goes to Ningshou Palace to kowtow to the Queen Mother, hiding with her grandmother and unwilling to deal with these things, while Concubine Rong is facing the sudden situation in a foggy manner. Good news, when the guests dispersed and there were only a few people left, she said blankly: "What's wrong with the emperor, you made me unprepared when you proposed the marriage to the third elder brother, and now you suddenly set Rong Xian's marriage as well." and he is going to get married in June, is he afraid that I will be reluctant to have a child after a long time?"

Seeing Concubine Rong's eyes flushed, everyone knew that she was reluctant to be a mother, so they left after a few words of persuasion and comfort. Lan Qi walked a few steps slowly, and Concubine Rong personally sent her to the door, and said in private: "Although I'm just a county king My son, it is better to marry to Monan than to marry to Mobei. Mobei has not stopped these past few years. Didn’t there be internal strife at the beginning of the year? My heart has always been hanging, because I am afraid that the emperor will marry his daughter to Mobei Marriage in the North, now going to Monan, I feel at ease."

Lan Qi knew the reluctance to marry a daughter, and comforted Concubine Rong: "The emperor must be considerate of my sister's wishes, so I chose the best husband for Rong Xian. June will come soon, we don't want anything else, the wind and the wind will come It’s better for my daughter to get married.”

After the two sisters said these words, Lan Qi returned to Changchun Palace, and when she entered the door, she heard Wen Xian's chirping voice. Inside, she heard that Er Niang was back, and Wen Xian ran out to meet her. Lan Qi blamed her for not having what a princess should have. Stable and dignified, Wen Xian said proudly: "Don't worry, Erniang, when I marry off like Sister Rongxian, I will be steady and dignified, and I will never embarrass Ama Erniang." He asked his mother curiously, "In the future, I will marry Where are you going? Er Niang, do I also want to go to the grassland like my sisters, will my sisters and I be together again there?"

"The grassland is so big, and every tribe is separated by thousands of miles, how can they be together?" Lan Qi touched her daughter's head and said, "Be obedient and stay with Er Niang, and grow up slowly."

The emperor drove to Jingyang Palace that day, he must have something to say to Concubine Rong about marrying a daughter, but when night fell, the emperor suddenly arrived in front of the gate of Yonghe Palace, Lan Qi was eating with her son and daughter at that time, Xuan After Ye entered the door, he said that there was no meal and sat down to eat together. The children were naturally happy, but Lan Qi felt uncomfortable for some reason. First, she hadn’t seen him for a long time. heart.

After the meal, Xuan Ye taught Ten 34 how to write, the joy of a loving father and son, and Lan Qi stayed by her side quietly all the time. When the children were all gone, Eunuch Liang sent some memorials, and the emperor sat under the lamp to review them without distraction. , After a long while, he suddenly called her: "There is no ink."

Only then did Lan Qi get off the kang and came over to him, stood beside the table and rubbed ink, amidst the slow rubbing sound, the emperor wrote a reply on the booklet with one hand, while asking: "You don't seem very happy today."

Lan Qi said: "We haven't seen each other for quite a while, how does the emperor know that the concubine is not happy today, it's like this on weekdays, nothing unusual."

"We haven't seen each other for a long time?" Xuan Ye frowned and thought about it, then smiled wryly, "I really don't think so."

Lan Qi smiled and said: "The concubine didn't count the date of meeting, but just said it casually. The concubine has nothing to be unhappy about, but today there is a sudden good news about Rong Xian's marriage. Seeing that Concubine Rong is reluctant to part with her, I feel a little bit unbearable."

"I told her that although the announcement was made hastily, the candidate was booked early in the morning. Even if I gave him more time to prepare, he would still be married to the Bahrain Ministry." Xuan Ye put down his pen, took a cup of tea and said, "I We are going to Duolunuoer, we will leave in the second half of the year, we will return in mid-May, and we will marry Rong Xian in June."

Lan Qi said: "The emperor is going to Mobei? It's not very peaceful there."

"I'm going because it's not peaceful, and I don't want them to be courteous to ask me to marry me. I don't want to marry them right now. My Qing Dynasty wants them to surrender, not to be relatives with them. Maybe we will marry in the future, but Not now." The emperor said calmly, "Rushing to marry Rong Xian to Monan is to let those people in Mobei understand that they should not try to plot against my daughter for the time being."

Lan Qi smiled and said: "The concubine said, how could the emperor have a sudden idea, it was all planned."

Xuan Ye nodded, and asked again: "I am going to Mobei, will you go?"

Lan Qi looked at him, and they met each other's eyes, not to mention a tacit understanding, but she seemed to see it from Xuan Ye's eyes, as if she didn't want to take her there.Maybe Xuan Ye wanted her to go, but Lan Qi had too many things in her heart, and she was thinking about her confinement sister. She didn't want to go, but put the responsibility on Xuan Ye.

The two were silent for a while, and Lan Qi said, "I'm going to marry my daughter in June, and my concubine will go to Mobei with you. Who will do the things in the palace? Leave it to Sister Rong, and she will be chilled. The concubine will not I'm going, I'll wait for you to come back so that I can organize a wedding for Rong Xian."

Disappointment flashed across Xuan Ye's eyes, but he didn't force it, and replied: "Yes, Concubine Rong is a little dependent on you now. If you are not here, there will be no one to help her. When June gets married to her daughter, let's move Living in the garden, I should have gone this year, but various things have been delayed."

Lan Qi recalled the beautiful scene of the two of them in the garden in the midwinter of last year, her mood suddenly improved, and the smile on her face also became natural, and she smiled at Xuan Ye: "If we leave in June, my concubine would like to live in Yingtai. For a while, there were too many trees in the garden, and the cicadas were too noisy, but Yingtai is still clean in summer."

Hearing what she said, Xuan Ye felt inexplicably more comfortable, stretched out his hand to stop her by his side, put his arms around Lan Qi's waist and said, "Then go to Yingtai, and stay there quietly until late autumn, and return to the palace in late autumn, Give Yinzhi and Yinzhen a wedding."

Lan Qi was surprised: "The emperor has decided?"

Xuan Ye smiled: "It's not your wish to marry Yinzhen this year, I will remember it. But I'm not in a hurry to talk about it right now, I'll talk about it when I come back from Duolunuoer."

The embarrassment that the two could not see traces quickly dissipated, they talked about these things together quietly, and spent the night happily and happily.After all, Lan Qi suppressed Ping Guiren's affairs, and always felt that it was unnecessary and unqualified to ask the emperor why he was wearing a cuckold. coherent.

A few days later, the imperial court officially announced that the emperor would go to Doron Nuoer to form an alliance with the three major tribal nobles of Khalkha, with the intention of resolving the 30-year grievances in Khalkha, preventing further internal strife in Khalkha, and not giving Galdan Any opportunity for the generation to instigate invasion, let the Mongolian ministries submit to the Qing Dynasty, and stick to the frontiers of the Qing Dynasty.

Yinzhen excitedly talked to his mother for a long time , Lan Qi is also happy for her son.

Concubine De and Concubine Rong did not accompany her. think of her.Apart from Concubine Yi, Concubine Tong, Concubine Xi, Concubine Jing, Wang Changzai, Yuan Promise, etc. are all on the list, but the most surprising thing is not that Concubine Yi is accompanying her, but that there is Jue Chan in the list of escorts. nobleman.

Concubine Rong privately said to Lan Qi: "I heard that the last time I went back to the Mulan paddock, the nobleman Jue Chan was amazed. Although many years have passed, Jue Chan is still beautiful. Look at the people who accompanied me this time. Are you going to decorate the facade with something beautiful?"
