Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

When Lan Qi heard this 20 years ago, she would panic and hesitate, but now, she can calmly accompany Xuan Ye, listening to him continue to say those cruel and realistic words.

Xuan Ye said: "One day the emperor and one courtier, it's because I'm too tolerant, it's because they are too secretive. I once told you that the joy after getting rid of Oboi didn't last long, and I soon felt the pressure from other places. Now that I think about it, when I killed Oboi, I didn't deter them. I just taught them to be good, and let them know that they must deal with me and control me, but they can't be ostentatious. .”

Lan Qi thought to herself, he said just now that the prince was born without a mother, it was the best condition, but the power of the mother alone can affect anything, after all, it is the power behind the relatives, and the Hesheli family is not The queen is strong, on the contrary, the queen and the prince are strong because of them.For the family, the presence or absence of Empress Hesheli has no effect. In the past, the family failed to control the Kunning Palace, but now they are controlling the Yuqing Palace to death.If the queen is still there, it will become a natural barrier for the prince, separating him from his relatives, and setting up a son to kill his mother is really not a great trick of imperial power.

"It's not that I don't understand." There was contempt and mockery in Xuan Ye's eyes, and he said coldly, "It's because I'm too indecisive, it's because I'm too naive."

Lan Qi comforted: "Now that I have thought clearly, I will do as I wish. The past is over, why should the emperor blame himself?"

Xuan Ye looked at her, saw the tense expression on her face relax, and asked with a slight smile: "No matter what, you will stand by my side, right?"

"At any time and anything, my concubine will not be shaken." Lan Qi replied calmly, holding Xuan Ye's hand in both hands to protect her palm, and said with a smile, "We will go together in the future, even if you despise me, I will also hold you tight and cling to you, don't worry, I won't lose it anywhere."

Xuan Ye's gaze was as loving and cherishing as it was more than 20 years ago. He patted her forehead, leaned over and kissed her cheek lightly, and before his lips could leave, he whispered in her ear: "I want to abolish the crown prince."

Lan Qi said that she would not be swayed, it turned out that petrified people really are not swayed, Xuan Ye smiled leisurely and looked at the instantly stiff person, and smiled disdainfully: "Look at you, you are not reliable at all, just a word That's all. What are you thinking now, are you afraid that your son will be involved, are you worried that I will embarrass Yinzhen and the others? Didn't you say that you want to stand behind me?"

In fact, Lan Qi already felt that Xuan Ye was impatient with the prince, and even thought that he had the idea of ​​abolishing the prince, but they were just a few vague and ambiguous words. Now that she really hears such a sentence, what she thinks is not what kind of future her son will have, but that Xuan Ye is finally willing to let go of the burden that he has carried for more than 20 years because of his youthful impulsiveness. No matter how far things can go, no matter whether he can fulfill his wish in the end, at least from now on, the emperor will finally be able to worry less.

"After making a decision, I won't hesitate anymore, but I just want to tell you my wish. As for what will happen in the future, I can't make any promises to you." Xuan Ye stretched out his hand to hold her cheek, and said slowly, "I am willing to give The best things in the world are for you, not for the children. I can only give you the beauty in front of you, and I can’t give you the future of the Qing Dynasty as a promise. When I established the prince, I gave it to the queen Promise, it is because I love her so much that I want to give her the best in the world. The crown prince is not so much given to Yinfeng as it is to the queen. The same mistake, I can't make it again, abolishing the crown prince is My wish, but whether or not to make it in the future, and which one to make, is not up to me to say."

On the contrary, Lan Qi was certain in her heart, and when she answered yes, Xuan Ye said: "In the future, there will be better emperors in the Qing Dynasty. There are many outstanding talents among my sons. In the future, the able ones will be the best, and it depends on their own good fortune. "

"The concubine made a note."

"If this word comes out of this door, I won't tell the second person." Xuan Ye raised Lan Qi's finger in a decent manner, "You can't tell the second person, not even Madam Su Mala. .”

Lan Qi smiled innocently, and laughed at Xuanye: "It's a trick to coax children." But others said, "It's about the country, how can it be used to coax children?"

The hands of the two of them shook slightly, pulling the hook to promise, how many years and ups and downs had accumulated in the flickering, Lan Qi suddenly burst into tears, and Xuan Ye was at a loss, hugging her and asking what's wrong, but he heard someone say: "My heart hurts!" you……"

The emperor rested in the Yonghe Palace that day, and the papers from the Qianqing Palace were sent to the Yonghe Palace several times. People in the palace have long been used to this kind of thing. Earlier, they would be jealous of Concubine De's special favor, but now they feel that the emperor can have a Peace of mind, peace in the palace, everyone's life is easy, it's not a bad thing.

Over the years, some edges and corners will always be erased and some resentment will be washed away, and people's hearts will gradually calm down. Maybe this is the gift of age.

But in the comfortable days, an invisible big righteousness rushed towards everyone. The emperor wanted to thoroughly investigate who was in collusion with outside the palace this time, and he didn't intend to let anyone go. Yes, I'm afraid it's doomed this time.

Two days later, the little elder brother Honghui from the fourth elder brother's mansion was sent to the inner palace. I don't know what Yinzhen was up to, but Yuxi personally sent it.Lan Qi greeted her mother and asked Yuxi to bring back many precious medicinal materials. Hearing that Jue Luo's condition has improved, she hoped that she would fully recover, and told Yuxi not to worry about family affairs and take good care of her mother.

Not long after Honghui came, Nian Tong also entered the palace. The siblings grew up together and could not be separated from each other. Nian Tong talked about his younger brother at home every day. The mother said: "I'm afraid that there will be no one to take care of her at home, and Erniang will be more tired. After a few days, when I have an idea of ​​the errand in hand, I will take the child back."

Lan Qi joked to her son: "You put it lightly, like ordinary people looking for a grandmother to take care of the children, Er Niang is not a mother-in-law who has nothing to do."

Yinzhen knew that her mother didn't mean that, so she smiled and said nothing, but was asked by her mother: "What errands have you been busy with recently? I heard from Yuxi that you are so upset that even Niantong took the blame." He frowned and said impatiently, "So what if my mother knows?"

Lan Qi scolded: "What are you talking about?"

Yinzhen said angrily: "Did Er Niang know long ago that Yinzuo was killed by someone?"

Lan Qi's heart trembled, she turned her face away and said softly, "Why did you mention this?"

Yinzhen sighed deeply, poured tea to drink, and then said: "Huang Ama asked his ministers to help investigate where the poison that killed Mistress Min came from, and found something by accident. Thinking about it, it is really logical. I don't understand why they are still at large after so many years, Er Niang, do you know why?"

"Have you asked Huang Ama?"

"No." Yinzhen's face darkened, "I can't ask."

Lan Qi made up her mind and said calmly: "In the future, you think you can ask your mother about this. If you ask me why, Er Niang can only tell you that the emperor is rich in the world, but he only sits on a dragon chair." He is the most helpless person in the world if he wants to control the courtiers to rule the world. Huang Ama and Er Niang hate Yinzuo's death more than you, but I am your Ama's concubine, and you are his son. We can't understand him, so what's the difference between him and those villains?"

"But my mother..."

"That was in the past. You were still a child at that time, and it's not your turn to turn around and complain." Lan Qi was able to face her son squarely at this moment, and said seriously, "Since Huang Ama asked you to intervene, then You just do it well, Erniang can't give Yinzuo an explanation, and now you can't give Yinxiang an explanation, that's your ability."

Yinzhen frowned, staring closely at his mother's eyes. The mother and son had never looked at each other like this. After all, his son's momentum was getting weaker. He got up and said in a muffled voice: "My son will definitely give Yinxiang an explanation. ... also give Yinzuo an explanation."

He bowed his body to salute, turned his head and was about to leave, but Lan Qi said: "Your brother Yinzuo is not the only one, don't act stupidly impulsively, you have other brothers, don't let them bear your fault and embarrass them in front of others. Ama asked you to intervene, knowing that you would find out the truth, but he didn't let you get involved in all this to make you impulsive and reckless, he wanted you to see this world clearly, if you are confused and blinded by hatred, then What can really change?"

Yinzhen was very angry, and he was obviously frustrated when he heard these words. Yinzuo's death had accumulated hatred in his heart for more than ten years. When the clues were gradually found, they learned the truth behind the tragedy more than ten years ago, but this time it was related to them.

Da Fujin's death made him feel that he had a kind of distorted pleasure, knowing that it was about Mingzhu and Concubine Hui, eldest elder brother was innocent, and Da Fujin was even more innocent, so he would still have the pleasure of retribution for evil.On the one hand, he was conflicted about his distorted mentality, and on the other hand, he was entangled in asking whether he could not truly enjoy his grievances.But now, my mother said this to herself.

"Er Niang is afraid that I will do something stupid and drag down my younger brothers in the future." Yinzhen couldn't help saying, "How can I control their future?"

Lan Qi said calmly: "Emiang didn't want you to be responsible for their future, but she didn't want you to isolate yourself. Now you can't even take care of your family, and even your daughter is angry. In the future, you will see more things in the world. The ugly and powerless truth, even if your wife and children can be pushed away by you, it can be seen that brothers and friends want to leave you even more, Erniang doesn't want to see you become a lonely person."

These words hit Yinzhen's weakness, his momentum was completely weakened, he was about to leave, but he turned back and sat down, his mother asked him: "Your mother-in-law is seriously ill, have you ever visited?"

The son's eyes were gloomy, he looked elsewhere and said, "Did Yuxi complain to you?"

Lan Qi sighed: "She never mentioned you, but Er Niang guessed that she would come to the palace to discuss with me in person, probably because she couldn't even talk to you anymore."
