Qi Concubine's Cultivation Notes in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 154

Wrapped like this for a whole day, sweating all over, Nian felt that his nose was ventilated, but who knew that the next day he had a fever again, talking nonsense indistinctly.

"It's so pitiful." Ulanara sighed, and even she, who had always hated Nian's arrogance, showed pity at this moment. "Take good care of your master."

Both Ulanara and Li Yunting knew clearly that Nian's illness might not get better.The maids around Nianshi didn't understand that Nianshi must die, and tried their best to make their master get better as soon as possible. If Nianshi passed away, they would have no good fruit to eat.

Nian's high fever went away after three days, but he still didn't wake up. Even the empress dowager's former concubine De, who lived in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, came to see the noble concubine.Ever since Yinzhen ascended the throne, her biological mother, Defei, ate fast and recited Buddhism, and rarely appeared in front of people. When she met Qi Concubine Li, she said to Li Yunting, "Accompany Ai's family for a walk in the imperial garden. I haven't talked to you for a long time. .”

Today is a rare sunny day, the snow has melted, and there is no icy cold wind, the pale sun shines on people, and even gives people the illusion of warmth. "How is Hongpan now?" Starting from the child, it is an unmistakable topic. The queen mother has a slight smile on her face. Compared with the past, the queen mother has lost the edges and corners. She is also dormant for her fourteenth elder brother. .

"In a blink of an eye, he has a child." The Queen Mother said, "I heard that you are teaching Western Chinese to the Concubine Wen and the Concubine Shang?"

"Just to pass the time."

Knowing that Li Yunting went to visit the concubines, especially to teach them Western language, she would always go here when talking and greeting.When she was about to reach the Compassionate Ning Palace, the Empress Dowager said: "It's good to be like you. If you take up too much, you will feel uneasy. Someday, someone will kick you from that position."

Li Yunting pondered that the Empress Dowager was talking about the Nian family name, and then looked at her eyes, as if she was comforting herself, could it be for the position of imperial concubine? "As the Empress Dowager said, the concubine is satisfied in her heart, her life is stable and peaceful, her son has grown up, and her daughter-in-law is pregnant. What else is there to be dissatisfied with?"

The Queen Mother is no longer young. Listening to Li Yunting's words, the wrinkles on her face stretched out, and she patted the back of Li Yunting's hand, "It should be like this. It's cold, so don't stay outside for too long."

Li Yunting watched the queen mother go back to the palace, then turned and left with Su Mu.

The imperial concubine's illness is getting worse day by day, and the new emperor is busy with everything. Under such circumstances, Yin Zhen often goes to see Nian Shi. He does this to confuse Nian Gengyao who is outside the palace. It is an expression of deep affection for the imperial concubine.

Nian Shi was drowsy on the bed, even if he woke up, he passed out before saying a few words, Nian Shi on the bed was surprisingly thin.The imperial physicians of the imperial hospital used all kinds of excuses for Nianshi's illness, and the prescriptions they came up with were all nourishing and nourishing.Yinzhen reprimanded the imperial physician, plus Nian's bedridden period, Yinzhen returned to Nianshi's palace six or seven out of ten days, and gradually spread the word that the noble concubine was Yinzhen's first favorite person .At the same time, what makes people feel emotional is that the fate of the concubine's concubine is unlucky.

If it is said that the imperial concubine is the most proud person in Yinzhen's heart, Nian Gengyao can nod his head and stroke his beard very gratified, but the emotion of confidante's fate can only make him frown. According to Nian Gengyao's opinion, the younger sister has Talented appearance has seduced Yinzhen, if it is enough to wait for a year and a half to give birth to a daughter in the harem, even the queen will not be able to reach it, how could I expect that at this juncture, my younger sister is so sick and drowsy, it really is not as good as heaven Count the old saying.

Just after February Erlong raised his head, Nian Shi, who was so thin that only a handful of bones remained, woke up on this day. "Ma'am." Qiuju noticed the trembling of Nian's eyelids, so she brought water to feed Nian, but Nian's eyes gradually opened.Qiuju patted Nian's back, and said softly: "Your Majesty, drink some water."

Nianshi drank some water softly, and said, "I want to go to the toilet." After washing Nianshi's hands, Qiu Ju's tone was filled with suppressed excitement, "Ma'am, how are you? Are you feeling well?" The servant girl behind her nodded, and the girl trotted to invite the imperial physician.

Nian felt his hands and feet were sore and weak, and most of his body was pressed against Qiu Ju, "What's wrong with me? Haven't I been fine all the time? Except that my body is a little soft, there is nothing serious. Why is it so cold in the room."

The maids hurriedly made the brazier burn hotter, and after Qiuju helped Nianshi onto the bed, she pressed the corner of the quilt for her, "Is it still cold?" She pulled up Nianshi's hair and put on a long jacket.

"It's much better." Nian said, seeing that her hands were frighteningly dry, he was startled, and then reached out to touch her cheek, feeling as if her cheek wanted to sink in, "Give me the mirror."

Nian's breathing was a little short, his heart beat faster at this time, and his vision became a little dizzy. He grabbed Qiuju's hand, and the veins on the back of his hand were throbbing.Knowing that Nianshi loves beauty, Qiuju hesitated for a moment and said, "The imperial doctor will be here soon."

"Give me the mirror!" Nian snapped.

The voice made Qiuju jump, and she took a small hand mirror from the dressing table and held it in front of Nian.Nian took the bronze mirror with trembling hands. Is she the pale ghost in the mirror?With a short scream, he dropped the mirror. "this is not me!"

Knowing that the mirror is for the royal family, Qiu Ju gave it to the imperial concubine last time, so she hurriedly stepped forward to hold the hand mirror, "Your Majesty, you are sick..."

Waiting to look up, only to find that Nian Shifu passed out again, just at this time the imperial physicians filed in.

Hearing the exclamation of the servant girls, she hurriedly stepped forward to check on the imperial concubine's body.Originally, Nian's waking up this time could be said to be an unexpected surprise, and perhaps there were signs of improvement, but now he passed out, and his pulse became weaker and weaker.Powerless, three days later, the imperial concubine's fragrance disappeared.Jin named the imperial concubine, and her posthumous title was the imperial concubine Dunsu.

The funeral of the imperial concubine was held on the fifth day after leaving the court, and she was buried in the underground palace of the Tailing Mausoleum, all of which showed the supreme respect of the imperial concubine.

Nian Gengyao's initial panic because of his sister's death has calmed down a little. Since the Holy Majesty loves his sister so much, he is safe for the time being... Apart from making Nian Gengyao somewhat restrained by his sister's death, Nian Gengyao is also slightly worried. Marching This keen sense of war made him uneasy, and the restraining forces hid low-key in the court.

Both Yinzhen and Hongpan knew about his attitude, even if it was like this, Yinzhen would not let Nian Gengyao go.Sure enough, within half a month later, Nian Gengyao was liquidated.

Kangxi's comments on Yinzhen's ups and downs came to everyone's minds. The so-called careful thinking makes people afraid. Thinking about the imperial concubine's demeanor and Nian Gengyao's actions during her lifetime, the people who knew what was going on inside couldn't help but criticize the reigning concubine. Emperor Yongzheng had more fear and defense.

Hongpan was not surprised by the reaction of the ministers. He was also thinking that if he did it, he could do it more satisfactorily than the reigning Ama. Fighting consumes power, and such a soft knife cuts off Nian Gengyao's rotten flesh bit by bit.Instead of being like this now, less than a year after he ascended the throne, he wiped out a general who assisted him in taking the throne of God.

The original Yinzhen would not act so hastily, maybe that position affected his decision, Hongpan thought so.I made a note of this in my heart, even if he finally sat in that position, he had to figure out everything slowly, and he couldn't try his nature.

Nian's death made people focus on Qi Concubine Li Yunting, whether she will be the next noble concubine.

Wulanara said to Nanny Qin: "Her? Last time the queen mother walked with her deliberately, she told her about it. The position of imperial concubine is not her turn. There is no brother like Nian Gengyao, Where is the noble concubine again? Looking at the glory of Nianshi's noble concubine, it was bought with his life."

Qin Nanny said: "The Queen Mother still likes Concubine Qi very much? This servant remembers that when Concubine Qi first became the side Fujin of Prince Yong's Mansion, she was quite favored by the Queen Mother."

Ulanara smiled, "It's all on my part, and I still want to be liked by the Queen Mother? The Queen Mother is a person who doesn't care about things, and she doesn't care about things. If she likes Concubine Qi, she likes it, and if she doesn't like it, she doesn't like it. Yes The current harem has no effect." Ulanara's view became more and more indifferent. If Yinzhen was full of reason, even if she was seriously ill, she would probably shed a few tears in front of others. The same thing is, Yinzhen will not liquidate the members of the Ulanala family. "Speaking of these strange and boring things, I remember that there are winter jasmine flowers in the imperial garden, maybe they are blooming, and the weather is finally getting warmer, so please accompany me for a walk."

Mother Qin naturally responded.

And Li Yunting also talked about the position of imperial concubine to Li Rulan who was teasing her.

"No." Li Yunting said to Li Rulan, "There is only one imperial concubine. There will be no more in the future."

During this time, Li Rulan got along with Li Yunting and let go of her previous jealousy. She found that Li Yunting was a very simple and pure person. For example, when she mentioned the imperial concubine as a joke, Li Yunting answered seriously.

"Concubine Qi like this is very good." Li Rulan said, falling on Heizi on the chessboard.

"The Empress Dowager also said the same thing." Li Yunting said, "One must always be content."

"Yes, the word contentment is easy to say, but not easy to do." Li Rulan said.
