Clearly, she doesn't want to be a concubine

Chapter 84

She heard it in her ears, and realized that someone was suing her behind her back. She didn't argue, but nodded obediently.

"I won't do it in the future." She held Kangxi's hand and looked at him, "It's because the slave lost his mind."

"You are very thoughtful, you want to think about everything, and you have to think about me, I know." Kangxi hugged her and murmured, "But, Erinzhu, I'm so tired."

He muttered to himself: "In such a big world, there are problems everywhere, like fetching water from a bamboo basket." , and the courtiers..."

"Erinzhu, I'm really tired..."

He was the second emperor after Yanjing, the capital of the Qing Dynasty.

Shunzhi reigned for 18 years. Although he worked hard to govern, he suffered from internal and external troubles, and he left early. After he was 24 years old, he left him with a huge mess.

Most of the great unified dynasties died in the second generation, such as the Great Qin, Jin, and Sui dynasties.

At its root, it is easy to conquer the world, but difficult to defend it.

As a foreigner, Kangxi must spend a lot of time in order to stabilize the situation.

Isn't the cutting of San Francisco not his urgent move to stabilize the situation?
He was too anxious, too anxious to do something to prove himself.

He has to hold the world tightly in his hands to prove that his ancestors are not wrong, and he is not wrong.

Umalu hugged him gently and stroked his back gently.

Kangxi's dull sigh rang in his chest, but never overflowed.

Umalu hugged him patiently.

She is a very smart person, so even if she has never seriously understood the history of the Qing Dynasty, she also knows what Kangxi and his descendants will do-they will continue to strengthen the emperor's power and control it in their own hands, so that Do one word and one word to determine the world.

Therefore, they will be stricter than any dynasty.

Each generation of them will find a way to eliminate the factors that they think will cause the dynasty to change, such as the ethos of forming cliques among ministers for personal gain; for example, concubines interfering in politics;

But because she is smart, she knows.

The root cause of the disaster of the country's destruction does not lie in the eunuchs, ministers, or concubines, but in the emperor.

Because of the emperor's body, he is a human being, and he is biased.There must be some inequality, because of inequality, the world will naturally not be fair.

Those who are favored by the emperor will also give more benefits to those they love.

As a result, people all over the world are fighting endlessly.

As a result, all creatures have their own thoughts.

Because it is unfair from top to bottom, it is upside down and disordered.

So the country will perish again and again, and the wealth and glory will be redistributed again and again.

Not in external things, only in the heart.

Just because the emperor can't be wrong.Instead of introspecting yourself, blame others.

Therefore, history books have only talked about the chaos of eunuchs, treacherous officials in power, and evil concubines who have brought disaster to the country.

But you can't say that the emperor has no plan, no wisdom, no courage, and you can't say that the emperor is selfish and not a holy king.

Eunuchs, courtiers, and concubines, there is no difference in what they do, and they do nothing but please the Lord.

A favorite minister is incompetent, but still holds a high position; an upright official, just because he doesn't like the emperor, will be relegated again and again.

In an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.

Therefore, the death of the Song Dynasty is inevitable.

Therefore, one general is incompetent and kills the three armies.The incompetence of the king brings disaster to the whole country.

Ministers please the monarch with their talents and abilities, and beauties please the monarch with their beauty and virtue.

Ministers and beauties, men and women, are all the same, they are all trying to please the emperor of the world.

All living beings are suffering, and there is no escape.

Perhaps someone has already seen this.

However, most people's nature is always to avoid the important ones.

Umalu knows it well, just like her, although she can think clearly, she can't do anything, because she also has selfish intentions and wants to protect herself, so how can she say these words in front of Kangxi? He told Kangxi frankly and directly that the fault of the country's destruction lies with the emperor.

She could only listen in silence, comforting the tired Kangxi.

Even if she has a pair of delusion eyes, an exquisite heart, a crystal belly, and a life-saving medicine, she can't match this imperial power.

She thought that because of this, the highest wish of a literati is to be a saint.

A sage has an impermanent heart, and takes the heart of the people as his heart.

Even if you can't be a saint, if you can't achieve it, you can help the world; some people once chanted "Lime Yin", saying, "Don't be afraid of being smashed to pieces, and stay innocent in the world."

Nor can she.

She laughed at the ridiculousness of the world of mortals, sighed that infatuation is boring, her eyes are empty, although this life is not over, she only wants to keep her heart free from disturbance, so that she can live happily for half a lifetime.

She begged to be happy, and wanted to be happy.

If by chance in the future, she can do a little bit for others and the common people in the world, even if she can only save a little suffering in the world, it will not be in vain for her to come here 400 years ago.

She admits that she is selfish and cowardly, has no courage, does not have the courage to die together, and is not as bold as other women. She can only keep this body, maybe she can do something, or maybe she can only watch certain things happen later.

She sighed softly.

Kangxi let go of her, wiped her face, and said softly, "I'm not talking about you..."

He went to bed and rested, closed his eyes, and invited her to fall asleep together.

Umalu said: "Don't you go to other sisters?"

"I don't want to go." Kangxi closed his eyes and said, "I'm too tired to deal with them."

Umalu closed his eyes.

Leg cramps in the middle of the night, she woke up in pain, groaned twice, Kangxi opened his eyes in a daze: "Have you got leg cramps again?"

He sat up, closed his eyes and began to pinch her legs.

They have known each other for several years. She was pregnant twice before, and he was by his side. Naturally, he knew that she was prone to leg cramps during pregnancy, and he had pressed her a few times, so he was very familiar with it now.

Liuli shouted outside: "Master?"

Umalu pushed Kangxi.

Kangxi said: "Back off."

Liuli didn't ask anymore.

Kangxi kissed her on the cheek, smiled in a daze, and said, "In this world, let me give you a share of the legs."

"It's the master who loves the slave."

Kangxi opened his eyes and looked at her in the dim moonlight: "You are my wife."

"The emperor's wife is the queen..."

Kangxi let go, and pressed her leg again: "You can't be the queen."

"The servant knows." Umalu said softly, "The words have reached this point, don't blame me."

Kangxi originally wanted to say that he didn't mean it that way, but if he wanted to elaborate, he would inevitably mention the poisonous oath he made in front of the Queen Mother and the Empress Dowager.

There was no way he would let her know.

She was so weak and kind, how could he bear to let her know this?
In his eyes, she is a weak and fragile glass bottle, and the long-term need to take medicine to nourish her body has aggravated his worries.

He pressed back, and only said softly: "I can't grant you the title of queen, in my heart, you will always be my wife."

He said softly: "I won't force you either, it's up to you when you call me Xuan Ye."

"You are my wife, in private, you don't need to call yourself a slave."

In fact, Umalu couldn't see Kangxi's appearance clearly in such dimness, but she couldn't help but stare at him for a long time: "Why is the master so kind to the servant?"

"I don't know either." Kangxi smiled softly, "When I first saw you, I thought you were beautiful, but later on you fit my heart everywhere."

He talked to her in a low voice, nonchalantly: "I lost my parents when I was young, and I rarely stay with my parents. It would be a lie to say that I don't envy you."

He stretched her tendons and covered her under the quilt.

He said: "I don't know why, but I just like you. Later, when I saw you and Yinfeng... the prince getting along, I remembered when I was a child, I wanted a home when I was a child."

He said: "Although I get along with my cousin like family, after all, it's not as good."

He closed his eyes, didn't speak, just grabbed her hand.

Umalu looked at him sideways, as if he was looking at a child who was homeless when he was young.

He said, "Sleep."

She should have been on guard against him, and she should never have confessed her heart, but when he spoke so sincerely, her heart became sore when she heard it.

She shouldn't love him, and she can't hate him. The only thing she can do is to treat him as her duty, without any emotion, but now, she doesn't seem to be able to do it either.

She closed her eyes, and a tear fell.

Kangxi didn't open his eyes when he heard that her breathing was unsteady, and said softly, "Don't be sad."

"I treat you well, that's what I want," he said.

Umalu grabbed the hem of his clothes and wept.

In the middle of the night when no one is whispering, say everything you want without regretting it.

Umalu fell asleep clutching the hem of his clothes.

Kangxi opened his eyes, looked sideways at her, and sighed silently.

E Linzhu, you are so kind-hearted and easy to be coaxed, what would you do without me.

He closed his eyes.

At that time, he got up lightly, and Liang Jiugong came in to help him get dressed.

He walked to the door and saw Liuli standing there, he said: "Tell your master that this year's New Year's Eve banquet will save her from running around so that she can have a good life."

"Yes."

Kangxi stepped out, the lanterns in front of him reflected the earth, he thought about the recent events in his mind, and thought about yesterday's events.

The outflow of property in this palace must be banned for a while.

He said: "Liang Jiugong."

"The slave is here."

"Pass down the word of mouth, and the concubine is not allowed to teach it privately with her family."

Liang Jiugong replied: "Yes."

He added: "If I didn't promise, none of the objects in the palace are allowed to be passed on."

Liang Jiugong asked: "The war has been tense these past few years, the Empress Dowager sent her belongings to the border guards..."

Kangxi paused and said, "Let's have a scene."

"Yes."

Kangxi thought for a while, and then ordered: "There are some things in the palace that should not be passed on to Yonghe Palace..."

Liang Jiugong hurriedly said: "These things will never reach Master De's ears."

The two walked for a while, and they were about to reach the Qianqing Palace. Liang Jiugong hesitated for a while, and said: "Yesterday, Wu Ya's family sent a message to Little Mencius, asking her concubine what to do in the draft."

Kangxi stopped in his tracks: "What did she say?"

"Little Mencius said that Master De asked him to ask the concubine what he meant."

Little smiles appeared in Kangxi's eyes: "Next year the House of Internal Affairs will enter, you pick a few honest and quiet ones and send them to Concubine De."

He paused and said: "She is kind-hearted, no one is allowed to come to her to beg for mercy."

"Yes."

Kangxi stepped forward and said with a light smile, "You."

Liang Jiugong knew that Kangxi said "you" to that virtuous master, and he had to admire him, and he didn't see how that virtuous master competed for favor. The emperor just put her on the top of his heart, even for that virtuous master Jiahuang and noble concubines are not so comprehensive, for fear of losing money.

Forget it, it must be that good people are rewarded with good rewards.

Isn't it because Master De is such a good man that he is willing to take action twice to help Master De regain his favor?

He followed closely.

On New Year's Eve, Umalu did not attend the New Year's Eve banquet. Everyone knew that the concubine was in poor health all year round and needed to rest, and she was used to it.

She didn't say anything to the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, whom she had always disliked, this year, and even mentioned a word to ask the people in the Tai Hospital to be more careful.

According to the rules of previous years, Kangxi asked someone to deliver a meal to Yonghe Palace.

After Umalu got it, how to reward the following people with dishes, and how to ask people to send some dishes to Wanliuha Liuyan, I don't need to go into details.

The imperial concubine Tong Jia brought Yinzhen to see Umalu not long after the Chinese New Year.

Concubine Tong Jia looked at her sluggish appearance, sighed and said: "I wanted the prince to come to see you a few days ago, but seeing you like this, it's not easy to let him come, I'd better wait for you to give birth to the emperor's heir." Yes."

"How is the prince recently?"

Concubine Tong Jia nodded and said: "There are a lot of people around him, he can't lose."

Seeing that the left and right were standing far away, she let Yinzhen go out to play, and then said: "I heard that the emperor raised the flags of Concubine Yi and your family into Zhenghuang flags."

Umalu looked at her.

Concubine Tong Jia saw that the surprise in Umalu's expression was not fake, but she herself hesitated a little.

Umalu held the hand of Imperial Concubine Tong Jia, and said: "Sister, if you have anything to say, just say it."

She smiled softly, with a bit of sickness: "I'm not in good health and can't go out, so I'm going to ask my sister to tell me these things."

Imperial Concubine Tong Jia was silent for a moment, then said: "I heard that Concubine Yi's Ama Sanguanbao is mostly rebellious and unseemly. Now that the emperor has raised the flag for him, it is inevitable that he will become more arrogant."

Umalu responded: "If the emperor doesn't like it, he will beat it. But the emperor likes Concubine Yi, it's okay if he is more arrogant."

Imperial Concubine Tong Jia knew in her heart that Umalu was right, her cousin of the emperor was a character whose love made him live and hatred made him die.When you really like someone, it's all good, but if you don't like someone, you don't like it in every way.

Father mentioned in the letter to her that the emperor acquiesced to the specifications set by Suo'etu, and the crown prince's ceremonial guards and crown clothes were almost the same as the emperor's, only the size was slightly cut.

In addition, the emperor stipulated that every year on the three major festivals of New Year's Day, Winter Solstice, and Qianqiu, all officials should perform two bows and six kowtows to the crown prince, and avoid the taboo of the crown prince's name.

During the east tour last year, she heard that the crown prince spent a lot of money, and the expenses in the East Palace were even higher every year, so she didn't say anything to avoid bad luck.

Although she knew it, she came here today for ulterior motives.

Imperial Concubine Tong Jia sighed: "My silly sister, I am afraid that you will become her shield."

Umalu looked at Concubine Tong Jia.

Imperial Concubine Tong Jia said: "After I entered the palace in the 15th year of Kangxi, I also heard about my sister's reputation. But after getting along for a long time, I know that my sister is not that kind of person. Thinking about it carefully, my sister is just blocking that Concubine Yi." disaster."

　Kangxi went out many times, and he never forgot to greet his beloved son who stayed in the palace; sometimes Yinfeng might not pay much attention to writing letters to his father, and Kangxi was very anxious. In his heart, the prince was already indispensable in his life. He once said that "the closest relatives of love are father and son".Once he even said in a letter to the prince, "I ask you to be separated from the document, and I feel uneasy." When the relationship between father and son was the most harmonious, Yinfeng occasionally contracted a minor illness, and Kangxi was so anxious that he couldn't sleep or eat.Father and son are attached to each other. When Kangxi went to the outside of the Great Wall, Yinfeng once played "I have always been attached to my knees, and I am used to it." A piece of old clothes to achieve the effect of seeing things and thinking about others.

　　Acquiescing to Suo'etu's standard of the crown prince's ceremonial guards and crown clothes that are almost the same as those of the emperor (only the size is slightly cut); Kangxi stipulated that every year on the three major festivals of New Year's Day, Winter Solstice, and Qianqiu, all officials should perform two worships and six kowtows to the crown prince In order to maintain the status of the prince, he did not hesitate to dismiss the important officials and jewels; he indulged his son in spending and wasting, such as every time he went out for a tour, the prince used it better than the emperor, and ordered the local officials to search for people's fat and anointing.The expenditure in the Eastern Palace was also higher than that of the emperor; the prince had a bad temper and whipped the kings and ministers at will, but Kangxi shielded him and even "led by example" to deal with those who disobeyed the prince; head.
