The Biography of Concubine Xi of Yongzheng

Chapter 428 Concubine Xi
Yinzhen was taken aback, looked at Hongli next to him, and said softly: "Hongli go down first."

After Hongli nodded obediently and stepped back, Yinzhen knelt down beside the sick bed, and whispered to the emperor, "Huang Ama, the fourteenth brother hasn't come back yet." However, when he said this, his eyes were full of It was cold.He didn't expect that the emperor was so sick that he was still thinking about the fourteenth. Could it be that he wanted to pass on the fourteenth?That being the case, why did he summon him alone?
The emperor let out a long sigh, opened his eyes and looked at Yinzhen without speaking for a while.Yinzhen held his hand, but was also speechless. The father and son faced each other, each with their own thoughts, silent for a long time.Finally, the emperor slowly closed his eyes and pushed Yinzhen away.

However, not long after he returned to the mansion, before the chair was even warmed up, another oral order came, announcing that he would face the saint immediately.Feeling uneasy in his heart, he hastily straightened his robes and rushed to Changchun Garden again.Perhaps, the emperor wants to understand what is not necessarily.

This time, the emperor's complexion was actually a little rosier than before, and there was a faint trace of radiance.

Yinzhen stabilized his mind and walked over slowly...

Yanhua accompanied Fujin to recite scriptures for a day in Yangxin Nunnery, her mouth was parched, and the most important thing was that she was upset.But in the afternoon, she remembered what Yinzhen had said to her. Yinzhen said that she would take good care of her and the child. She thought of Yinzhen's clear eyes that were always calm, and there was always a power that made her feel at ease. , and suddenly feel relieved.

This day seems to be very long. After the snow fell last night, the ground was covered with another layer of white snow, and the sky and the earth were filled with coldness.

Yanhua was trapped in the Old Summer Palace and didn't know what happened outside, so she simply put aside her worries and played with the two children.

Unknowingly, the sky darkened, and the guards outside the garden still did not withdraw, standing there neatly like a squatting stone lion, guarding the garden with all their heart.Yanhua sent someone to the door to look twice, and heard that they were still there, but she couldn't tell what it was like in her heart.

After coaxing the two children to sleep at night, Yanhua herself couldn't fall asleep for a long time, after all, she was restless.She cared about Yinzhen's situation wholeheartedly, and was not interested in whether he could win the crown prince, but only cared about his safety.Everything is fine for him, so she and the children can live in peace.After all, he is their world!

When she was drowsy, she heard a faint cry, which floated from far away and hit her sky cap directly. She was startled and quickly got up: "Lingxi, is there someone crying?"

Lingxi went to the window and listened carefully, then walked back and said, "Gege, someone is really crying, but it seems to be crying from outside the garden. It probably came from the south."

"South?" Yanhua murmured silently, disturbed by the indistinct cries.She couldn't sleep, so she asked Lingxi to dress her, then put on a cloak, and walked out slowly.

A gust of cold wind rushed towards her face, completely clearing her drowsy mind.

She walked south, but her vision was blocked by a high wall, so she couldn't see clearly.But in the deep twilight, the south side is as bright as a brightly lit hall.

"Is Changchun Garden in that direction?" She felt a "thump" in her heart, and unconsciously tightened the hand that was holding the edge of the cloak.

Lingxi looked over suspiciously, then looked left and right, then nodded and said, "Ge Ge, yes."

Yan Hua took a sharp breath of the cold air, stared at the light in the distance and murmured: "Hasn't the Emperor been recuperating in Changchun Garden all this time? Could it be..." The emperor died?
She was startled by her speculation, and immediately shook her head a few times, suppressing such disrespectful thoughts in her heart.But once this thought came together, she couldn't get rid of it anymore, and she was woken up from time to time by the indistinct crying and this terrifying thought throughout the night.

The next day, the weather was gloomy, and it seemed that a storm was coming. Dark clouds were layered on top of each other, as if hanging overhead.

Yanhua didn't sleep well all night, so she got up late in the morning. When she went out to see the bad weather, she didn't go to the gate of the garden to see if there were any guards guarding her. She just hugged and smiled, and pulled Jia Hui, eat bacon by the fire in the house.The bacon was delivered by Mu Jin just now, and Mu Jin said that Fujin had gone to Yangxin Nunnery to pray and chant scriptures early in the morning, and would come over later.

After a breakfast, Yanhua couldn't taste her food, thinking of the crying she heard last night, and seeing the black clouds pressing down on the city outside, she became anxious for no reason.

"Has Wei Changan been here?" She looked outside, but no one came.

Lingxi shook his head: "No, the maidservant sent someone to look at the gate of the garden early in the morning. Wei Changan hasn't been here since yesterday, and the guards haven't withdrawn either, they are still guarding outside."

Yanhua nodded, didn't speak any more, just played with the two children herself.Fujin came over in a short while, playing happily with a smile on his arms.It's just that when Yanhua saw her brows, there was also a trace of melancholy, which persisted for a long time.

On November [-]th, the dark clouds pressing down on the city in the sky finally turned into heavy snow, which fell in a rustle, and a thick layer of snow soon accumulated on the ground, which creaked when stepped on.

The snow came and went quickly, and it stopped within an hour.After the snow and Chuqing, Yanhua hugged Jiahui, Wulanarashi hugged and smiled, and they chatted and laughed around the stove to pass the time.At this time, Mu Jin hurried in, with a serious expression on her face: "Fu Jin, Ge Ge, someone is here."

Yanhua had already pent up too many questions in her heart, and now she heard this, she put down Jiahui and walked outside.Seeing this, she was startled.It's not just people coming, a large group of people came outside in a mighty way, it's a black patch, they all come stepping on the snow.The sound of creaking and creaking came over in a uniform manner, and they came out of an inexplicable momentum.

Yan Hua squinted her eyes to take a closer look, the person who came was someone from the palace.Her heart couldn't help tightening, and the uneasiness in her heart resurfaced again.

Liu Ming, Wei Changan's left and right hand, rushed over first. He had a serious face, but there was joy in his eyes.

"What's the matter?" Yanhua walked up to him first, and said hastily.Fujin hugged and smiled, and hurried out.

Liu Ming glanced back, and the group of people had already approached, so he hurriedly said: "Fujin, Gege, everything is fine, please rest assured, Your Majesty...Emperor Daxing..." Emperor Kangxi has passed away, and his posthumous title has not yet been determined , is the Daxing Emperor.

Before he could finish his sentence, he heard footsteps approaching from behind, so he quickly shut his mouth and did not speak again.But the expression on his face was clearly filled with joy. Before Yanhua could get to the bottom of it, she saw a group of eunuchs, court ladies and a few nuns lined up neatly, and then one eunuch left first. He came in, raised his head slightly to take a look, then walked to Ulanara and gave a big salute.

Just when Ulanara and Yanhua were surprised, the group of people behind the eunuch also followed suit and prostrated on the ground in unison, shouting in unison: "Welcome the empress to enter the palace! Welcome the empress Xi!" Enter the palace!"

Their titles were like a thunderclap, which shocked Wulanara and Yanhua in place.

What did they just say?Empress?Concubine Xi?
It wasn't until Jiahui who was beside her timidly pulled her hand that Yanhua came back to her senses.Her first reaction was that Yinzhen was safe and sound at this time, and someone was sent to pick them up.The next cognition is, has the throne passed to Yinzhen? !

Just when she was in a daze, the two old nuns behind the eunuch took the lead.The two of them held the mourning gowns and knelt in front of Ulanara and Yanhua, lowered their heads, raised the mourning gowns in their hands, and asked them to change.

Kangxi passed away yesterday, and today is the time for the funeral.

After Yan Hua replaced the base, her mind was still muddled and she couldn't react.What do they call her?Concubine Xi?Why did she become Concubine Xi in the blink of an eye?Things were so sudden that she always felt unreal like a dream.Will she live in the Forbidden City in the future?She only felt her heart pounding, without a trace of excitement, but a trace of worry hidden in the unknown life.

After Jiahui and Xiaoxiao had changed their clothes, they entered the palace with the support of a group of eunuchs, court ladies and guards.

Yanhua blankly followed the guidance of the eunuch and the old mother all the way, and saw Yinzhen standing in front of the Qianqing Palace from a distance, wearing a royal blue woven gold sea dragon skin python robe, covered with a heavenly robe. A blue horseskin jacket with a dark dragon pattern, and a dark jade belt around the waist.This outfit is actually the same as what she saw when she left the palace, could it be that he has worked so hard for the past few days that he didn't even have time to change into his clothes?

There was a pain in her heart, and she hurriedly followed the old mother's words step by step.She saw Thirteen standing not far behind Yinzhen, and felt at ease.In any case, Shisan stood behind him to help.Presumably everything has been done properly, otherwise Yinzhen would not have brought them into the palace at this time.

She didn't know how difficult it was for Yinzhen these few days, but just now when she glanced at him from a distance, she felt that the coldness on his body was suddenly covered with an emperor's aura, making people daunting.From now on, he will be the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.This realization made her quite panicked, and her mind went blank for a while, but she couldn't react.

Yanhua followed the Wulanala family, followed the guidance of the old mother and eunuchs, and mourned for the late emperor.

Three days later, all civil and military officials came to express their condolences. After three kneelings and nine kowtows, all the officials were crying loudly, and the sound of crying was loud and endless.Xiaoxiao was young, and was frightened to cry by such a scene, and followed Ulanara's side with a whine, but fortunately, it was in harmony with the current situation, and it was harmless.

It's just that Wulanara was considerate of Yanhua and wanted to bring Jiahui, so she took the initiative to bring Xiaoxiao by her side. Now that she saw Xiaoxiao crying into tears, she felt very distressed, so she hurriedly took advantage of it. Kong Kong hugged Xiaoxiao back to the palace for comfort.

Concubine De is revered as Empress Dowager, and her emblem is Empress Dowager Renshou.

During the mourning period, Yanhua heard voices of doubt more than once and from more than one person.Among them, Master Jiu was the one who questioned the most.

When Shisi rushed back to the palace, the emperor had already been buried.Fourteen ignored the new emperor at all, and did not kneel down to worship Yinzhen when he saw Yinzhen, but cried heartbrokenly at the coffin.Faced with the eunuch's scolding, Fourteen turned a deaf ear.Lord Jiu told him that before the emperor died, he had personally said that he would pass on to the fourteenth son, and it was Yinzhen who had usurped the throne that should have belonged to him.

He was already deeply saddened by Huang Ama's death, but after hearing this, he had no respect for Yinzhen at all.

Yinzhen couldn't tolerate his blatant disobedience, and even if his filial piety was fulfilled, he would let Fourteen guard the imperial tomb after the late emperor's coffin was brought into the mausoleum.Concubine De staggered after hearing this, and passed out.

At the beginning of December, Yinzhen wore a yellow robe, ascended the throne as emperor, and changed his reign name to Yongzheng.
