The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 376 Duan Concubine ①

Dai Jiayuwan had never seen such a scene before, she was so frightened that she just froze in place, unable to move a step.

Seeing Rong Yue approaching him, he was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly, and stammered: "Young lady, imperial concubine, please forgive me! I didn't see anything! I didn't see anything."

Rong Yue bent down, raised her chin, and looked at her forcefully: "You have not been favored since you entered the palace, I would like to ask you, do you want to survive to be favored, or do you want to go to Huangquan Road with Concubine Duan?" company?"

Yuwan was frightened by her words and got goosebumps all over her body, and hurriedly said: "I don't want to die, I don't want to die! The imperial concubine, please spare my life, the imperial concubine, please spare my life!"

Rong Yue shook her chin forcefully, clapped her hands with a gloomy face and said: "Not only will I spare your life, but I will also support you to be favored by the emperor. In the future, you will advance and retreat together with me, okay?"

Yuwan seemed to be seeing straws, and repeatedly kowtowed to thank her, but she didn't want Rongyue to help her up, and staggered to Wen Yin's dead body.

When she saw the corpse, she felt nauseated and vomited again and again under the panic, Rong Yue ordered Lian Xin to pick up the blood-stained stubborn stone, and handed it stiffly to Yu Wan: "Go, hit her wound down."

"Your Majesty, I, my concubine, dare not."

Rong Yue sternly shouted: "Why don't you dare when someone is dead? If you don't dare, the stone will fall on your head!"

Yuwan was frightened and frightened, she cried out unconsciously, she gritted her teeth, and smashed Wen Yin's body hard again, then she was so frightened that she threw the rock aside, collapsed on the ground and began to cry.

Rong Yue said with a sneer: "Okay, you and I did this together, you don't want to talk about me. If the emperor asks about the concubine Duan, how should you answer?"

Yu Wan trembled, holding back her tears and said: "Concubine. Concubine saw that it was Duan Concubine who accidentally slipped and fell and hit her head on a stubborn rock. That's it."

"He's a smart one." Rong Yue leaned close to her ear, and said softly: "You know the power of my mother's family in the previous dynasty, you know clearly in your heart. If this palace is implicated, you, Ama and your mother-in-law, will only It's worse than Concubine Duan's death, do you understand?"

Yu Wan didn't dare to look Rong Yue in the face, and just nodded her head desperately.

Lian Xin, who had been panicking for a while, finally came back to her senses, and suddenly knelt down to plead guilty to Rong Yue: "Your Majesty, forgive me, if it wasn't for the servant girl's arbitrariness, punishing everyone in the palace to kneel on the long street, then Concubine Duan You won't hear those words, slave"

Rong Yue ignored her, turned her head and went straight to the hall: "I want to spread this matter, so don't show off."

Her voice was extremely soft, like the cold air in the cold sky, without the slightest temperature.

A pair of beautiful and delicate flowerpot-soled shoes with Sichuan brocade and satin surface, inadvertently stepped on the kidney bean rolls that Wen Yin carefully prepared for her, and trampled the soft pastry beyond recognition.

The snow fell more and more densely, and it almost blinded people's eyes.

At that time Wanyu was embroidering a veil for a skylark in the bedroom. The skylark on it was Wen Yin's favorite bird, and its shadow could always be seen in the clothes she wore every day.

Yunchan added a lamp for Wanyu and put it beside the desk, and carefully told her to be careful not to hurt her eyes.

Wan Lai embroidered stitch by stitch, and said with a gentle smile: "Wen Yin spent so much time making cakes, I have to give her something back. So that she can know how much Ben Gong treats her, as before. It's like entering the palace."

Yun Chan said: "In the past, when the concubine Hui was wronged and imprisoned in Yanxi Palace, only the imperial concubine and Duan concubine were willing to help us. Duan concubine lived with you and shared her own food with us every day. She The status is not high, and if we share the food, I will always go hungry. I still remember that Concubine An attacked at night, if she hadn't found Master Shen to help in time, with Concubine An's madness at that time, Even if the servants are protecting her, they still dare not keep the empress safe."

Wanyu paused for a while, and smiled slowly: "Speaking of those who will never leave this Palace, why are they the only ones?" Her eyes were like spring water and she glanced at Yun Chan: "If it wasn't for you not to move an inch Standing by my side, I don't know how to spend that period of time."

Yun Chan shyly smiled and shied away, suddenly there was a wind blowing open the water chestnut window, and the cold hit Wan Yu's face.

Yun Chan hurriedly closed the Ling window, but because of this shock, Wan Yu's hand holding the embroidery needle trembled, and she accidentally pricked her fingertip.

Warm blood stains immediately stained the white silk, and the skylark's beak embroidered on it was dyed a deep red.

Wan Lai gently put her finger into her mouth and sucked it, looking at the lark crying blood, she felt a little ominous in her heart.

While thinking about it in her heart, she suddenly saw Shuangruo stepping heavily and lifting the curtain to enter, her face was full of sadness and shock, her eyes flickered and she dared not look directly at Wanyu.

Wanyu's heart tightened, and she asked, "But Bai Changqing is not good?"

Shuang Ruo shook her head silently, after a moment of silence, only sadness remained.

Just as he was about to ask in detail, he heard sobbing and crying from time to time on the long street.

In the joint palace, only the one who has died in the palace can cry so wantonly, isn't it?
"But the prince is not good?"

Shuangruo shook her head, and burst into tears immediately: "The concubine sent the cakes to the imperial concubine's palace. The road was slippery in the snow, and she staggered and fell to the ground. She was face down, and her head hit the stone. went."

"What?" Wan Yu fell back and leaned heavily on the back of the chair, and the piece of silk in her hand fell to the ground.

Wanyu was stunned almost in shock, with a face full of disbelief and suspicion, before she squeezed out a sentence from her throat after a while: "How is it possible? She was still here in this palace just now, and we were still chatting about the past."

She pointed to the kidney bean rolls on the table, and tears rolled down her cheeks: "This pastry is still here, how can you tell Ben Gong that she has gone?"

Yun Chan next to her was already sobbing, Wan Yu wiped her tears and got up suddenly, pushed Shuang Ruo who was standing in front of her, and ran to the door.

Shuang Ruo beckoned Yun Chan to come and stop her, but seeing that she couldn't stop her, she hurriedly called the palace servants outside the palace.

This movement alarmed Lin Lan, who came back from outside the palace. She hurriedly brought out the palace servants to stop Wanyu. Seeing that Wanyu was still struggling, she said with a bit of tears: "Sister, don't go, it's a pitiful death. The appearance is absolutely invisible!"

While speaking, he was already surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside.

Seeing Wanyu's insistence on this, everyone could only kneel down and beg her to think twice.

I lost my mind for a moment, amidst the flying snow all over the sky, the only sound was Yu Wannao's mournful cries.

After crying for an unknown amount of time, she finally lost her strength, and Lin Lan half-pushed her back into the dormitory.

It was only later that Wannai found out that death was unlucky and ugly, so the emperor ordered people to enshrine the body in Jiangxuexuan. After the concubine of the harem died early in the morning, they would move it to a small hall next to Gonghua City for offering. .

But she couldn't believe other people's words no matter what. How could such a good person stumble over a stone and just hit his head to death?
It was night, the emperor didn't ask his concubine to sleep with him, but guarded Wen Yin's body in Jiang Xuexuan for a whole night.

And Wanyu is also sleepless, Yunchan and Shuangruo are waiting outside the bedroom, for fear that she will slip out while others are not prepared.

She was lying on the couch alone, all the things she had with Wen Yin in the past couldn't help appearing in her mind, and she felt tears wet the pillow.

　Remarks ①: Concubine Duan (?~?) Dong, one of the concubines of Emperor Kangxi, the coater of Zhenghuangqi, the daughter of Yuanwailang Dong Daqi (or Dong Deqi).Kangxi gave birth to the second daughter of the emperor in ten years (youshang, not sequenced, because there are too many children in Kangxi, the author did not write about her pregnancy), she was registered as a concubine on August 16, 22.She ranked third among the seven concubines who were canonized at that time, and was not promoted again.The year of his death is unknown, but he was enshrined in the Jingling Concubine Garden of the Eastern Tomb of the Qing Dynasty on the ninth day of September in the 59th year of Kangxi. (Because the year of her death is unknown, and she was not enfeoffed by the Jin Dynasty and had no heirs, there is reason to suspect that she died shortly after being conferred the title of concubine.)
