Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

The holy chariot is approaching, and Lan Qi is drinking medicine in Huanchun's hand. Hearing that Xuan Ye is about to arrive at the door, she hurriedly pushes away the half-drinked medicine, and asks the little maid to serve and rinse her mouth. She hurriedly got up and tidied her clothes, Go to the door to welcome.She was wearing a green summer dress, and she was full of vitality under the sun. As soon as the emperor entered the gate of the Yonghe Palace, seeing this touch of green, he was inexplicably relieved.

The people in front of him were all standing with full tails, Zhou Zheng bowed his knees steadily, Xuan Ye rarely let Lan Qi kneel in front of him, for some reason today, seeing her kneeling down steadily, he felt at ease, waiting for her to finish the bow, Then he started to support him, and asked worriedly: "Is there any injury on your body? Is it okay to move like this?"

Lan Qi shook her head with a smile: "The concubine only scratched a little on her arm, it's fine."

But even after rinsing his mouth, the smell of the decoction on his body has not dissipated, Xuan Ye couldn't help asking: "What medicine did you take, why did you take it again?"

Lan Qi smiled and said: "The concubine has a lot of dreams at night and can't sleep well. The Queen Mother ordered the Tai Hospital to prescribe a decoction to soothe the nerves, so that I can sleep well at night."

The two of them went to the door while talking, but they passed the sight of outsiders, Lan Qi was about to go to the inner hall, when Xuan Ye suddenly pulled her into his arms, he hugged Lan Qi tightly and said: "It's fine if you're fine, it's fine if you're fine, why am I so foolish, I should take her out too, why would I stay in the palace in a daze. You're fine... just fine."

Lan Qi remembered the words of Aunt Su Mala, who said that she was spoiled, and said that the emperor had always tolerated her unconditionally. At this moment, she heard Xuan Ye's words from the bottom of her heart, and felt a solid and powerful heartbeat against his chest , can't help but feel wronged in my heart, it's not because I feel wronged by my husband who neglected me, but because I've always been in the blessings and didn't know the blessings.

"Let me take a look at the wound on my hand." Xuan Ye calmed down, pulled her to sit down, rolled up her sleeves, tied a circle of gauze around her slender arm, Lan Qi said it was just scratched, and the imperial doctor was afraid of leaving scars. Be careful, it's just a bluff.

Xuan Ye said: "Don't leave scars, you care so much about your skin."

Lan Qi looked at him obsessively, and said involuntarily: "Why didn't the emperor ask what happened, why didn't you ask, how did Ping Guiren die?"

"Those don't matter. I need to see with my own eyes that you are fine before I can feel at ease." Xuan Ye let out a long sigh of relief, and the ease in his eyes made Lan Qi feel as if the emperor had let go of some burden. For the emperor, disappearing is not a particularly bad thing at first sight.

But she quickly shook her head, reminding herself not to think too much, to get rid of this bad habit of thinking too much about everything, at least from now on, don't speculate too much about Xuan Ye's actions, she has already I don't remember when I developed such a bad habit, but fortunately there is still time to change it.

"The emperor listened to his concubine." Lan Qi made up her mind, got up and went to the cabinet, took out a brocade box, in which lay a hairpin that had turned black after the blood had dried up, and Lan Qi took Sipa to hold it to the emperor Look, and said calmly, "Your Majesty, this is the murder weapon that killed Ping Guiren, but the concubine can only show it to you, and cannot give it to others, and will not mention it to others. The reason why the concubine held Ping Guiren's The corpse is not allowed to be autopsied by the Clan Mansion and the Ministry of Punishment, just because they don’t want them to find out the cause of death and chase after the palace to find the murder weapon.”

Xuan Ye looked at the hairpin, it was an ordinary hairpin that was unfamiliar and inconspicuous, it was not the style that Lan Qi liked to wear these days, and said, "Isn't it yours?"

"It was Zhang who agreed." Lan Qi put down her hairpin, and slowly told the story of that day, mentioning that Pinggui kept saying that Zhang promised and the little princess killed her child, and deliberately concealed the fact that she provoked Xiao He. What Sheri said didn't mention whether the dragon species was evil or not, and it directly mentioned that in order to save her, Zhang promised to pull out the hairpin from his head and insert it into the back of Ping Guiren's neck, and Ping Guiren was killed on the spot.

"Later, the concubine was sprayed with Pinggui's blood all over her face in order to pull out this hairpin." When Lan Qi said this, her voice couldn't help trembling. Xuan Ye squeezed her hand and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm back."

Lan Qi nodded, and said again: "The concubine insists on waiting for the emperor to return to Luan to make the decision. She just wants to ask the emperor for favors. Can you believe what the concubine said to the outside world that she met an assassin. There is no proof of this matter. Even if the concubine said If the truth is revealed, outsiders may not believe it, especially the Hesheli family. They might insist that it was the concubine and Zhang Xu who conspired to kill Ping nobleman. Anyway, there is no proof of death, so it can be done anyway. But Zhang Xu couldn't bear it. Due to external pressure, Chenqie didn't want her to live in the shadow of this matter, and Chenqie herself had to come out as soon as possible. At that moment, Chenqie thought of pushing this matter to an assassin who didn't exist, since No matter how you say it, no one may believe it, so if they don't believe it if they make up something that doesn't exist, the concubine will feel better."

"Is this what you thought?" Xuan Ye listened calmly, with a calm expression on his face, as if Ping Guiren's death was not worth mentioning to him.

"It's the concubine's idea, and besides..." Lan Qi glanced at Xuan Ye timidly, and lowered her head, "The concubine can't tell whether it is a matter of the government or the harem. Please forgive me. The concubine wants to However, if the matter is judged according to the assassin's statement, it is also considered as giving the Hesheli family enough face to honor Ping Guiren for saving his concubine, granting her honor after death, and posthumously conferring the title of concubine or concubine. If you can make less noise, people are dead, what else can you do?"

Xuan Ye actually smiled lightly: "I never thought that in such a life-and-death situation, such a bloody scene, you can think of so many things, even I admire you."

Lan Qi said calmly: "At that moment, either she died or the concubine died. The most important thing in life and death is how to live better. If the concubine is alone and has no worries, it probably doesn't matter, but The concubine is your virtuous concubine, Yinzhen Wenxian's mother-in-law."

"I don't blame you, I'm just relieved and surprised. Besides, your idea is very good. I have been wondering why you detained her body all the way back, and now I finally understand." Xuanye said happily, "How did she die? Yes, I believe in you, whether it is the truth or an assassin, I believe in you, I will give her honor after death, praise her for saving you, and make this a beautiful story."

Lan Qi was satisfied, and a stone fell from her heart. Now the two can talk intimately, but if she is entangled in whether Ping Guiren's child is a dragon or an evil one, I'm afraid they will have a dispute, or even break up unhappy, and the torn scars will never last forever. Disappeared, she didn't want to go that far.

But to Lan Qi's surprise, after all this was said, the emperor called someone to deal with it, but continued to be alone with her, Xuan Ye said: "I lied to you about something, you can go to my elder brother to ask about it in the future." Aunt Su Mala can also know the truth. Your Majesty Ping did not mess with others, and the child is indeed mine, but I can't let her have a child, and I can't let the Hesheli family give birth to a royal heir. At that time, I We're fighting, if we don't fight, there won't be anything after that, anyway..."

"That child can't be saved, the concubine knows." Lan Qi bowed her head, but as she spoke, tears fell. She was not crying for the little life, but choked up and said, "That child is the same as our daughter who died young. The concubine can tell at a glance that he cannot survive."

"What's the matter with you?" Xuan Ye said, with a faint smile, "Actually, I didn't need to say anything, but I always feel a little guilty about you in my heart, and I don't feel very comfortable when I say it now, but let's say it. "

"Don't talk about it anymore." Lan Qi hugged his shoulders, didn't cry anymore, wiped away her tears, and said firmly, "Let's never mention this matter again in the future, never again."

Xuanye seemed to understand something, and she didn't seem to understand Lan Qi's meaning, but since she said she would not mention it again, then she would not mention it again. It is good to have an explanation for Ping Guiren's death, and there is no proof of death. Just her old style and behavior. Pai, the members of the Hesheli family can't be shy and fool around.

The emperor gently stroked her back, and agreed gently: "I will listen to you, and I will never speak again."

After that day, the royal family finally gave a clear statement on Ping Guiren's death, saying that Ping Guiren met an assassin in the imperial garden. Ping Guiren was killed by the assassin in order to protect Concubine De. Because someone approached at that time, the assassin fled in a hurry and did not kill any further. , so that Concubine De and Zhang promised to take a life. As for the whereabouts of the assassin, they also found clues, and they are investigating further, and there will be results sooner or later.

No one in the palace or outside the palace really believed this kind of rhetoric, but everything was so logical, even if everyone knew that nobleman Ping could not save Concubine De, but the dead would not open their mouths, maybe she saved it that day?What's more, the emperor made serious investigations, and everything was done very rigorously and seriously, and three days later, the nobleman Nian Ping had done a great job in rescuing Concubine De. The specifications are thick, and the family members of the mother's family are also sheltered by mourning.

The emperor dealt with this matter swiftly and vigorously, but if the courtiers had any doubts, the emperor accepted them all, and even let them investigate. However, Concubine Ping's body cannot be violated. In this way, no one can really find out the cause of Concubine Ping's death. All those who came into contact with Concubine Ping's body in one day were Concubine De's people, no matter how tight-lipped or not, at least no news came out.Undoubtedly, apart from the emperor and concubine De, there is no third person in the inner court who can intervene in this matter.

Although Lan Qi was clearly only in the Yonghe Palace to heal her wounds and soothe her nerves, the courtiers naturally involved her in this matter, and for no reason there was a fear that De Concubine would control the emperor's heart. Covering the sky, one is about to reach into the court.

On this day, Xuanye came to Elder Brother's place to visit Madam Su Mala, and sat under the eaves with Nanny to watch Twelve Elder Brothers fight a set of punches. Asked: "Did the emperor still tell the empress?"

Xuan Ye looked at her and nodded in response: "It's better to say it, and I will feel at ease when I say it, otherwise I will always feel that I have lied to her. If she finds out by herself one day, she should not believe me or Mammy."

Aunt Su Mala was full of emotion in her heart, but she just smiled: "The emperor really loves the empress."

Xuan Ye smiled and said, "That's only for her."

At this time, Eunuch Liang left in a hurry. He saw someone looking at the door. He listened to what he said, and immediately ran over with a smile on his face. Happy."
