Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

Xuan Ye looked at his son up and down, saw that his clothes were neat and his eyes were bright, he was standing there straight with his back straight, his whole body was full of vigor that young people should have, he felt a little happy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, he just said: "I just heard the news that Hongyu died."

Yinzhen lowered his head and said: "My son also got the news. It was sent by Er Niang. My son is just about to report to you, and please don't let the emperor's grandmother know for the time being, so that the emperor's grandmother can travel around the mountains and rivers as much as possible." good."

Xuan Ye nodded: "That's it." After a pause, he asked again, "I feel uncomfortable. I thought you would ask to stay in the capital to accompany your wife and children, but I didn't expect you to go with me."

"Emiang said, the child has no destiny with us. Since he is destined to live through life, please let me not worry about it too much. He is too young and doesn't understand human affairs, so let him go quietly." Yinzhen couldn't bear the soreness of his nose while speaking. , "But after all, it's flesh and blood, and my son's heart aches."

"It's human nature. Even if you want to stay with their mother and son, I won't blame you." Xuanye calmly motioned his son to sit down, but Yinzhen didn't dare. What the father and son said is no longer related to this sad matter. Xuanye has been focusing on river engineering for more than ten years, and he explained the truth to his son during the chat. A few words made Xuan Ye very pleased.

In the capital, Sibeile's mansion simply took care of the death of the child. Li Fangfujin sat on the couch sadly and desolately. She had already cried until her tears dried up. Unfortunately, Yinzhen was unable to see the child's disappearance with her own eyes. She tried every means to win her husband's sympathy and sympathy, but in the end he was not at home at all.

The maid Qiaozhu came in and hurriedly said: "Fu Jin is here."

Mrs. Li hurriedly lay down and closed her eyes for a doze, but hearing footsteps, Fujin asked, "Did you sleep?"

Qiaozhu pretended to respond: "Ci Fujin cried again in the morning, and went to bed when he was tired. Please wait a moment, Fujin. The maidservant is going to ask Fang Fujin to get up." Then she came over and pushed her young lady.

Seeing Li's waking up looking haggard, Yuxi couldn't help but said: "I can't stop her, I shouldn't have let her wake you up, you can go back to sleep, we can talk whenever we have something to say."

But Li Shi sat up, holding her messy hair, bowed her head and said: "If you have something to do with Fujin, please tell my concubine."

Qiaozhu moved a stool to invite Fujin to sit down, Yuxi stopped being polite, sat down and said solemnly: "It's a bit heartless to say those things to you now, but I don't think it's a problem to procrastinate, now you I feel sorry for Hongyu, and nothing else can make you more sad."

Mrs. Li was puzzled, but heard Fujin say: "Do you miss Nian Tong in your heart? In terms of human feelings, you should take Nian Tong to take care of you, so as to comfort the pain of bereavement. If you think so, I think there is nothing wrong with it. So I first asked Empress Defei for instructions, but what Empress Dowager meant was that Niantong is the eldest daughter after all, so it would be better to keep her in the main room. I decided to tell you earlier after thinking about it, lest you worry about it and misunderstand I don't understand you."

"Fu Jin has already taken good care of my concubine." With tears in her eyes, Li was so pitiful, choked up, "I never thought of bringing Nian Tong back, but Nian Tong followed you since childhood, and suddenly came back to my concubine, my child Not necessarily happy."

"You don't need to say that, Niantong knows that you are her dear mother." Yuxi said gently, "Just be sad these days, maybe it will be fine after a while, you don't have to be too restrained, think about it Cry and laugh with all your heart, and it’s fine if you let it out, I won’t blame you for being ignorant. Just take care of your health, and let Qiaozhu find me in the main courtyard if you need anything.”

Li Fangfu Jin thanked her, Fujin didn't plan to sit and talk to her for a long time, just came to talk about Nian Tong, and now she got up to leave, she hurriedly left the couch to see her off, but was stopped, Qiaozhu supported her Leaning tremblingly on the side of the couch, watching Fujin come and go in a hurry.

After Qiaozhu settled the lady, she ran outside to take a look around, and came back soon and said softly: "Miss, Fujin has gone far."

Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief, and the cute and pitiful appearance just now disappeared, she just gritted her teeth and said: "She was afraid that I would go back to Nian Tong, so she specially begged De Concubine Empress for a word, and on the other hand, she pretended to be a good person. "

Qiaozhu persuaded: "Miss, don't think about it. You take good care of your body, are you afraid that you won't be able to give birth? But Fujin herself, she is afraid that she won't be able to give birth, and she dare not give birth."

Mrs. Li hated again: "What did you say to make me cry and laugh as much as you want? I really made such a fuss without knowing what to do. Lord Belle would think of me if he knew it, and Empress Concubine De in the palace would think of me if she knew it. In short, she is a good person. I'm just a supporting role."

Qiaozhu motioned her to keep her voice down, and comforted her: "At least we know what Fujin is thinking, so you won't be really fooled. In the days to come, Miss, just be more careful."

Mrs. Li put her hands on her stomach, and sneered: "I want to take good care of my body, what's so great about her Ulanara, she will become a treasure after giving birth to an elder brother, and I'll see if this child can grow up. "

Qiaozhu was taken aback, and hurriedly persuaded: "Miss, please speak softly..."

On this side, when Yuxi returned to the main courtyard, Niantong was playing with Honghui in the courtyard. Seeing Erniang coming, they gathered around and acted like a baby, saying that they would go to the palace to see grandma. Sad to lose a brother.They are still too young to understand what death is. Hongqin always stays in the house and rarely sees each other.

Yuxi coaxed the children to play by themselves, and promised to take them into the palace in a few days, but then avoided the children, called the wet nurse and others to the front, and repeatedly explained not to scare the children to let them understand the pain of losing their brothers, and slowly Explain clearly, sooner or later I will understand.After giving these instructions, Qinglian stayed in front of her alone, but asked Fujin: "Is it true that Fujin is pretending to be pitiful in front of you again?"

Yuxi's eyes were cold, she nodded and said: "Pretending to be very pitiful is her usual trick. I never thought that Er Niang could see through her through the palace wall. I was with her under the eaves, but I still felt that she was really real. Pitiful."

Qinglian sighed: "Why bother with Chu Fujin, do you think everyone else is a fool?"

Yuxi didn't take it seriously, but said: "I will take good care of her, as long as she doesn't create trouble for Yinzhen, I won't make things difficult for her, and everyone will live in peace."

Time flies, and it has been more than half a month since Shengjia left the palace. On that day, Concubine Tong and others were suddenly summoned to the front of Shengjia. The emperor ordered them to serve the queen mother and move forward slowly by boat. Take a boat and go to the south of the Yellow River to inspect the embankments of Gaojiayan and Guiren Dike.

Among the accompanying concubines, Concubine Tong, Concubine Hui, and Concubine Yi are respected, and Concubine Hui is the most calm and sophisticated, so naturally many things are entrusted to her, and the fifth and seventh elder brothers are left as escorts. The elder brother, the third elder brother and the fourth elder brother went to Gaojiayan and other places.All the matters here are related to the protection and defense, of course the minister of guards will take care of them, but taking care of the queen mother and other female relatives, as well as the young prince, is entrusted to Concubine Hui.

Concubine Hui was in charge of the Sixth Palace in her early years. She was a capable person. After being lonely for a time, she has not been reused until now. During the Eastern Tour, she was summoned to the big tent by the emperor to say some heart-warming words. Today, Concubine Hui is entrusted with important tasks. Huhu.

When everyone left, Concubine Tong said politely: "I rely on Sister Hui for everything. I can't find the north when I go out. Don't talk about caring about others, I can't take care of myself."

Concubine Yi laughed beside her: "It's true that there are no generals in Sichuan, as long as Sister Rong is here."

Concubine Tong couldn't help being embarrassed, she couldn't speak for a while, and the nobles around her gently pulled her, and said, "Your Majesty, let's go back."

Seeing Concubine Tong leaving, Concubine Yi wanted to follow, but was stopped by Concubine Hui, she said with a smirk: "I just didn't care about things for many years, and my hands are very good. Lord Long Live made an appointment for us to meet in Qingkou five days later. , I don’t know what will happen in these five days. You’d better sit on the boat firmly and don’t fall into the water. The current is so fast that it will disappear in a blink of an eye. Brother Jiu is still waiting for you to go back and arrange a wedding for him.”

"What are you talking about?" Concubine Yi's eyes stared like copper bells, but Concubine Hui left her behind and left. This is the emperor's boat, and Concubine Yi is not easy to play tricks on, she followed behind resentfully, her face livid with anger .

The boats were connected by pedals. Concubine Tong carefully brought back the nobleman and maids. The nobleman Juechan had been waiting on the deck early and gave Concubine Tong a hand to support her. She saw the imperial boat and went down from the other side. Concubine Hui who is full of pride and Concubine Yi who is full of anger.

Before she could ask anything, Concubine Tong told everyone: "Be careful in the next few days, and leave our ship if you have nothing to do. Let’s talk about everything in Qingkou five days later.”

While talking, I saw that Shun Anyan brought people close to Concubine Tong's boat in a small boat, knelt on the boat and said: "I have ordered you to board the boat to protect your mother's safety."

Seeing that it was her nephew, Concubine Tong was even more relieved, and hurriedly let Shun Anyan board the boat. Their own family members did not need to avoid suspicion too much, but they were young with the nobleman, so they consciously went back to their cabin.

Not long after, the emperor changed to a light boat and took several princes, personal guards, and local river engineering ministers to Gaojiayan. Everyone watched the holy driver on their respective boats. Concubine Tong held her heart and said, "Why is the emperor I don’t want to bring more people, I’m very uneasy.”

Shun Anyan said from the side: "Don't worry, your majesty, the river to go to the emperor is shallow and narrow, and the water flow has been gentle for thousands of years, so it is not suitable to take a large boat or bring too many people. The emperor will detour to Qingkou to meet us. In comparison, we The road ahead will be more turbulent, and when the wind and waves are strong, please be careful in the cabin, so as not to be bumpy."

Concubine Tong was pleased and said: "My little nephew is also capable. Our family is really talented from generation to generation. After all, he is a direct son and grandson, and he is born with value. With you on my boat, my aunt can feel at ease."

Shun Anyan smiled and said, "I'm still young, so I need to practice a lot."

Concubine Tong smiled: "After marrying the princess and becoming a son-in-law, the emperor values ​​you even more. You have to do good work for the emperor. The emperor married his sweetheart to you, so you must treat the princess well. It's really strange to say, how did the emperor go all the way?" I arranged for you to follow the eldest brother, it would be great to follow the fourth elder brother, and you can still see me from time to time, if I didn't see you today, I would have never seen you all this way."

The aunt and nephew were talking, Concubine Tong was about to go back to the cabin, Jue Chan accompanied her for a few steps, when she heard Concubine Tong mentioning Eldest Brother, thinking of Concubine Hui's expression just now, she smiled coldly, thinking about it.
