Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

"The tenth elder brother is simple-minded, and whoever treats him well will follow him wholeheartedly." The nobleman Juechan smiled at the eighth elder brother, "I used to take care of him in Xianfu Palace, and then the queen mother took him by my side, so I will take care of him." It’s not easy to get close. You are an older brother, so you need to care more about your younger brother. Maybe if I say this, you will feel unhappy, but eighth elder brother, although I gave birth to you, I hardly took care of you for a few days. On the contrary, ten Brother, I watched him grow up, the love from those years is still there, I just feel sorry for him."

The eighth elder brother was not unhappy, but because of this, he felt that his mother was gentle and kind, and still said with a smile on his face: "I like the tenth brother very much, don't worry, Er Niang, I will take good care of him. Let me teach him more."

"Your reputation for good homework can be heard even in Yanxi Palace. I think Concubine Hui is very happy." Jue Chan smiled like a spring breeze, stretched out her hand to straighten the child's clothes, and said softly, "I am not qualified to teach What about you, but there are some words hidden in my heart, and I always want to tell you. Eighth elder brother, your maternal ancestor's family was considered a scholarly family before it fell. No worse than others, you will definitely be the best prince. Er Niang is waiting for you to rise to the top, so that Er Niang will accompany you and take care of you in the future."

Intimacy, warm words, eighth elder brother's eyes were full of happiness, and mother raised her hand again, touched his forehead lightly, and asked worriedly: "Does it still hurt?"

Brother Ba shook his head and said, "It really doesn't hurt, it's just that there was a lot of blood, which scared them all."

Jue Chan said with a smile, "Concubine Hui will take good care of you."

The eighth elder brother nodded reluctantly, and muttered softly: "If Huang Ama hadn't come to see me, it would probably be the same as before. Forget it, I don't really care."

"How can you not care, the concubine Hui has been kind to you in nurturing you." Jue Chan knelt down on one knee and lowered her body. The eighth elder brother has grown a lot taller. After squatting down, she already needs to look up at the child, but in her eyes Full of love, he said slowly, "How can an excellent prince forget his filial piety to his adoptive mother, Yinhu, Eniang doesn't want you to work too hard to do big things that are unattainable and unattainable. Start with one drop, be a filial child, be a child who studies hard, and you will naturally grow into a towering tree and become the mother's support."

Brother Ba’s eyes were watery like tears. How could he have imagined that his biological mother would have such expectations for him. While jumping with joy in his heart, he recalled the unhappy things. He lowered his head and said softly, “I heard Changchun Palace According to the people here, it seems that after Brother Fifth's wedding, it's my turn to Brother Seven. I wish my Fujin could be chosen by Er Niang for me, but..."

"No matter who becomes your Fujin, Er Niang will try to take care of her. Although Er Niang's status is low, she has lived in the palace for a long time, and she needs to know more about many things. Stay in the palace for a while, Er Niang will help you take care of her." The nobleman Jue Chan said with a smile, "I think the emperor will choose a wife for you, isn't it too early? Let's not worry."

At the other end of the corridor, Minchang was holding Princess Dunke out to get some air. The little princess stretched out her hand to yell when she saw mynah from a distance, but her mouth was covered by Er Niang. Minchang saw the nobleman Juechan With her back to them, she knelt down on one knee and talked to Brother Ba. After a quick glance, she turned around and retreated, and then sent Xiao Yu out to watch carefully, but Xiao Yu came back soon and whispered to the master: "Your Majesty and Ba Brother is gone."

Min Chang gave a hum, then picked up her daughter and took Xiao Yu to go to Su Mala's house together. The master and servant walked out again. Min Chang naturally glanced at the place where the mother and son were just now, But he saw the nobleman Juechan reaching out his hands to wipe off the snow on the window lattice around him, squeezed his palms full, as if waiting for them to melt slowly, and stood there motionless.

"Sister noble." Minchang called out, and then saw nobleman Juechan turned around, pinched Xue's hand and hid it behind his back unnaturally, and asked her what she was doing with a smile, Minchang replied, "I'm going to Suzhou Mama Ma La, shall my sister go with me?"

The nobleman Juechan silently threw away the snow in his hand, and hid his wet hands in his sleeves. When he came, Dun Ke opened his arms to hug her, but her hands were cold, and she was afraid of startling the child, so she coaxed her with an excuse: "Auntie Standing in the wind for a long time, my body is cold, how about hugging Dunke after a while in Madam Su Mala's room?"

The little princess agreed obediently, and a group of people came to Su Mala's house. The women coaxed the mother to talk and joke with the child. His actions were seen by her.Although she was prepared in her heart, she originally planned to let someone see it so that it could reach Concubine Hui's ears, but she did not notice that someone was there just now, and she didn't want Xing'er to see it because Xing'er would not deliberately Pass it to Concubine Hui to know, after reading it, there may be misunderstandings between each other, the so-called one hundred secrets and one sparse, after all, nothing is perfect in this world.

When Elder brother's place is busy, Yonghe Palace is quiet instead. In the main hall, there are hundreds of catties of silver noodles rewarded by the queen mother and the emperor. At the office, she was making a list based on the gifts received, how much was given by who and where, and Lvzhu Xiangyue and others circled around her, asking Huanchun to leave more for her own people in Yonghe Palace.

Lan Qi came out from inside holding the hand stove, and laughed at them: "What's so rare about this? I have prepared something for each of you during the Lantern Festival."

As soon as the words were finished, the thick cotton curtain on the door was lifted, and the waiter outside knelt in front of the door and said, "Words came from the Qianqing Palace, saying that the Lord Long Live has already set off and will arrive at the Yonghe Palace in a blink of an eye. Please make preparations."

Lan Qi murmured why she came here now, Huanchun Lvzhu and the others had already started serving quickly, and the room was cleaned up in a short while, Lan Qi wrapped her big cloak and held the hand stove and waited all the way outside the gate of Yonghe Palace. It's not easy to walk, Shengjia is moving slowly, when Xuan Ye came, her face was already flushed by the wind.

"When do I want you to go out and wait?" Xuan Ye complained, and he put the stove into his arms. He squeezed Lan Qi's hand to warm it, but he was not angry anymore. The two of them should not mess around when they enter the door People followed her to serve her, and she took care of most of the affairs in Concubine De's house by herself.

It's just that the emperor brought presents to the empress today, and Eunuch Liang had to go in once. He put down his things and then retreated. Huanchun led people to bring boiling water to make tea in the house, and he glanced at Eunuch Liang inadvertently. Seeing that the expression on his face was not very satisfactory, he was inevitably a little worried. He entered the door carefully and served tea, and when he came back to find out about Mr. Liang, Director Liang left a capable eunuch to serve him, and he didn't know where he went.

In the room, Lan Qi was fiddling with the gift that Xuan Ye gave her. It was a pen washer polished from a whole piece of emerald jade. He glanced at the emperor boldly and said: "Are you going to give it to Yinzhen or Yinxiang Yinti? That's the only one, which son should the concubine save for? The emperor remembers to give things to the concubine next time, at least three copies." .”

She stretched out her hand and made three gestures to Xuan Ye. She thought she was going to be scolded by the emperor for being greedy, but she just wanted to amuse him, but Xuan Ye grabbed her hand, kissed the back of it, and then went down to her fingertips. Sliding on a ring, the golden ring held an emerald the size of a fingernail. It was very vulgar and very expensive. Lan Qi looked at the ring on her hand dumbfounded, and muttered: "The empress dowager wears it to be expensive."

Xuan Ye smiled: "Then wait until you become an old woman." Pointing to the pen wash, he said, "Today is Yinti's birthday, so of course it's for him. I also gave you things for Yinzhen and Yinxiang's birthdays. Those are for them, you have to distinguish clearly, I am impartial."

Lan Qi liked to hear these words, but she said too much: "When I gave things to my sons before, it didn't benefit me as a concubine."

Embarrassment suddenly appeared on Xuan Ye's face, and a bit of guilt appeared in his eyes. Lan Qi noticed the strangeness at a glance, and rubbed the emerald ring in her hand, reluctant to take it off, but felt that the emperor wanted to Tell her something unpleasant, and the mother-in-law gradually pouted and muttered: "It's better to talk directly, if you give something good, she can't turn her back, right?"

Xuan Ye smiled instead, got up and walked around to sit beside her, put his arms around half of his body and said: "I have something to discuss with you first, if you don't agree, I will find another way to deal with it."

"What's the matter? Your Majesty, don't tease me." Lan Qi was very reluctant.

"It's about the selection of Fujin for my sons this time." The expression on Xuan Ye's face could not be appeased, but his words were quite reproachful. Why do you think that I want to draft a talent show and send five or six women of the right age with the Han army flag, and they are authentic Han people like Wang Changzai and the others. They have already arrived in the capital and I saw the brochures they handed over. Look , how to deal with those people?"

Lan Qi stared blankly at Xuan Ye, her heart was on fire, she took off the ring in her hand and stuffed it into his hand, she turned to avoid him, stood aside and said with a straight face: "There is no room in the palace." There are so many people, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has carefully checked the accounts for the New Year, and they can't afford to support one more person."

Xuan Ye chased after her and held her hand, put a ring on her finger, and coaxed: "Don't take off the ring even if you are angry, I really can't blame me for this, but when I get to the front door, I think..."

"How many people does the emperor want to keep in the palace?" Lan Qi wanted to withdraw her hand, but she was still firmly restrained by the ring put on.

There was deep meaning in Xuan Ye's eyes, not longing for women, a sneer of disdain crossed his lips, and he replied: "I want to keep them all."
