Chapter 99
Umalu thought for a while and said: "The fourth child is enrolled in school, do you see any good four treasures of the study in my warehouse, send him a set."

"Yes." Liuli asked Baozhu to do it.

Umalu saw it, but didn't say anything.

After sending it away, before Yinzhen finished school, the imperial concubine Tong Jia picked it up for Yinzhen, and gave it to him after he came back.

Yinzhen looked at the Four Treasures of the Study, puzzled and said: "Mom, I have some from you."

Concubine Tong Jia said patiently: "This is a wish from your mother."

Yinzhen didn't understand, but still accepted it obediently.

Brother Ying on the side brought the anti-fetal medicine, and Imperial Concubine Tong Jia drank it.

Yinzhen wondered, "How long will Mom have to drink?"

Seeing that he cared about her, Imperial Concubine Tong Jia said with a smile, "It's coming soon."

She called him and touched his cheek: "Mama will give you a younger sister, please."

"it is good."

Brother Ying laughed at the side: "Master, it's true, what if it's an elder brother."

The imperial concubine Tong Jia smiled and didn't say anything, she just asked someone to serve the cheese and fed it to Yinzhen herself.

In June, all the preparations for the ceremonial guards were completed, and they only had to leave the palace to go north to escape the summer heat. The people who went out of the palace together included the Empress Dowager, the Crown Prince Yinfeng, the elder brother Yinti, and the third elder brother Yinzhi.

Accompanying him were five concubines from the palace.

They are Gegehe Sheli Suzhen of Chuxiu Palace, Gegebor Jijite Baoyin of Xianfu Palace, often in Wanliuha Liuyan, often in Weijianyue, and often in Daijiachengyue.

Kangxi originally planned to take Niu Hulu Yunqing to escape the summer heat, but when he sent the imperial physician to ask for pulse, he got the news that he was pregnant, so he gave up.

All the way to the north, on a flat, vast and endless wilderness, there were hordes of wild beasts. Although guards drove him away, Kangxi also became mad.

When he met a herd of deer on the way, Kangxi asked someone to fetch a bow and arrow, and shot one arrow, and one deer was killed. After being carried by the guards, the tail was cut off and then salted.He met a hazel tree along the way, and he dismounted to pick the hazelnuts himself.

Afterwards, people rushed to send the venison and hazelnuts back to the Forbidden City, and presented them to the Queen Mother.

After coming out for a trip, he felt a lot better after staying in the Forbidden City, and he inevitably became heroic.

He chanted: "The old man is talking about being a teenager, holding the yellow on the left, Qingcang on the right, the brocade hat, the sable fur, and the thousand horses riding on the Pinggang. In order to repay the city, follow the prefect, shoot the tiger personally, and watch Sun Lang..."

The Empress Dowager couldn't help smiling when she heard his voice in the sedan chair.

He seemed to be in a good mood.

Much happier than his imperial father was then.

That's fine, let him be.

The Empress Dowager looked sideways at the scenery outside and remembered her hometown.

The same vastness, boys and girls will meet in Aobao, colorful silk, prayer flags, and cloth strips will make Aobao more beautiful.

At the Naadam Conference, the bravest man will win the favor of the most girls.

She also imagined which heroic young man she would like when she grew up.

After she was married off by her family at the age of 13, she didn't think about it anymore.

But now, she remembered again.

Young is so good.

After the venison arrived in the harem, it passed the eyes of the queen mother. The queen mother asked the people around her to divide it according to the rules and sent it to those above the concubine. What the concubine got was only a big piece of palm. The largest piece of land is the second largest piece, followed by the noble concubine Niu Hulu, and the four concubines are equally divided.

As for the hazelnuts sent back by Kangxi, they were also divided into portions and sent to the palaces together with the venison.

Each palace has been rewarded, and after thanking them, each has its own use, so let's not talk about it.

After asking the doctor Wang, Umalu only ate one piece, and the rest was eaten.

It was June, and when it was hot, the imperial concubine Tong Jia was about to give birth, and the midwives who had been prepared for a long time were waiting in full force.

Baozhu privately sighed: "Fortunately, master is later than master Tong Jia, so we won't have to fight."

Liuli replied smoothly: "It is the Master's kindness, God has pity on me, that prevents these open and secret fights."

Baozhu thought about it, and felt that this was the reason, so she didn't say any more.

At six o'clock on June [-]th, there was a sound of good news. The imperial concubine Tong Jia gave birth to the eighth daughter of the emperor, and the mother and daughter were safe.

After hearing the letter, Umalu called Liuli: "Go and pick out some expensive things that she doesn't need as congratulatory gifts, and deliver them yourself."

This is an old practice.

Umalu was afraid of getting into some kind of palace fight, and wanted to hide away, and didn't want to make any mistakes that would cause subsequent fights, so he often gave orders like this.

Liuli has been with her for a long time, so she understands it, so she went down to pick it.

It had been a while since Liuli came back, and she raised her mouth: "Many palaces give gifts."

Umalu responded, but didn't care too much: "She has a high status and is a good person, who has never been sympathetic to her."

Liuli listened quietly.

Umalu suddenly became agitated and asked: "Speaking of which, do you have someone you like? Do you want me to help you make peace?"

Baozhu hurriedly said: "No."

Liuli also said: "I only wish to serve the master around."

Umalu just mentioned it, and when he saw their veto, he said: "When you want to marry, just tell me."

She laughed again: "I heard that the Empress Dowager is a warm-hearted person who loves to make friends with others. It's a pity that I'm not in good health, so I never met in private."

She sighed softly again: "However, this is also good."

Liuli and the others remained silent, just waiting.

Umalu had no intention of saying anything more.

Wan Liuha Liuyan is not around, and she has one less person to talk to, so she can only flip through the book and chat to pass the time.

Before Luanjia, who was away from Kangxi, returned to the palace, news came again that the eighth daughter of the imperial concubine Tong Jia died on the [-]th day of the sixth month at Xushi.

After hearing the news, all the people in the palace sent people to condolences, but they couldn't even enter the palace gate.

Liuli also walked for Umalu, and was locked out of the door.

Liu Li said: "It was Hong Shao who came out to talk, and she just said that her master was tired and had no intention of taking care of it. She just waited for her master to recover before inviting all the masters to meet."

Umalu sighed after hearing the words: "She must be heartbroken."

Concubine Rong of Zhongcui Palace also sighed like her: "She must be in great pain."

Qing Ying sighed: "Master, it's not painful."

She hesitated for a moment: "Master asked Dai Jia to accompany Luanjia..."

Almost a month had passed before Qing Ying asked.

Concubine Rong beckoned her to come forward, and gave her a string of clear Buddhist beads, and sighed: "You have been with me for almost ten years, and you haven't cleared your heart once."

Concubine Rong said: "Then Dai Jia has served me for a long time, and has copied scriptures with me for many years. It is nothing to allow her to go out for a walk."

Concubine Rong sighed: "If I hadn't been temporarily in charge of the affairs of the Sixth Palace, I would also like to go out and have a look. Always nesting in one place, people would be moldy."

That Qingying turned the Buddhist beads in her hand, and said: "The servant knows what the master means, but he just doesn't understand that the master helped Dai Jia to take the throne at that time, wasn't it because of the Yonghe Palace, why..."

"You want to ask me why I don't have any follow-up measures?" Concubine Rong took a sip of tea, and then said, "I thought that Concubine De was coquettish and dissolute, full of tricks, otherwise it would not be enough to confuse the emperor to do those things. .”

She put down the teacup: "But she has been in the position for so many years, she has been hiding from the world, she is quiet, and she is a responsible person. Why bother."

Concubine Rong wanted to fight, but Ruo Yonghe Palace was a difficult person to get along with, and it happened to her that she bit off a piece of her body.

But that person often hides in a corner, and even Tong Jia's imperial concubine team is often unable to show up because of frailty and illness, so he attended a New Year's Eve banquet last year.

If she wants to attack that person in Yonghe Palace under such circumstances, it can only be done by a mad dog who bites anyone.

Qingying's long-standing doubts were answered, so she stopped talking.

It was rare for Concubine Rong to talk to her about this, so she asked casually, "Do you have a girlfriend?"

"No."

Concubine Rong nodded: "Do you want to be the emperor's concubine?"

Qingying hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "I don't dare to have such an idea."

Concubine Rong smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, I'll just ask, if you want to, it's not impossible."

Qingying hurriedly said: "The slave only wants to serve the master for the rest of his life."

She said this sincerely, she has followed Concubine Rong for a long time, she has been there since Concubine Rong was Princess, and along the way, she also saw that some low-ranking Princesses and Promises did not live as moistly as hers.

Even, because she was someone close to Concubine Rong, those people had to be extra polite to her.

She was stupid to leave Concubine Rong.

Concubine Rong sighed softly, said nothing more, and let Qingying go down.

The reactions of Yikun Palace and Yongshou Palace were similar. Concubine Yi and Concubine Niu Hulu also felt sorry for Concubine Tong Jia when they heard about this, but they also asked the palace to strengthen their defenses, for fear that something would happen to them and the imperial heir in their womb.

In Yanxi Palace, Concubine Hui didn't say anything except sighed slightly after hearing what Lingyun had said.

The rest of the other concubines have their own ideas, but they are pretty much the same. Some are mourning the death of a rabbit, some are praying for the noble concubine Tong Jia, and some are malicious haters. I will not list them one by one.

After Kangxi received the letter from Concubine Tong Jia's child's death, he sighed in his heart, and immediately took up a pen to write down the number with affectionate words, just telling her not to miss the child, there will be more in the future, remember to take care of your body and so on.

Although he cared about it, the news that Shi Lang commanded the navy of the Qing army and won a big victory against the navy of Taiwan in the Penghu naval battle washed away a little bit of his grief.

When the imperial concubine Tong Jia received the letter, she hadn't had a proper meal for many days, and she only relied on brother Ying to forcibly feed some rice soup every day to survive.

She opened the letter, shredded it tremblingly, and threw the letter out, leaving Brother Ying alone.

She said hoarsely: "Get out, get out."

But she hadn't eaten for a long time, her body was weak, and she was about to fall out of bed when her eyes went dark.

Brother Ying threw away the tray in his hand, rushed up, helped her up, let her lean against the bed, and let her breathe.

Brother Ying said: "Master, I need to take care of my body. Little Gege is gone, and Si elder brother is still here."

Concubine Tong Jia laughed angrily: "Get out, get out."

She wanted to push her away, and the well-maintained nails scratched her hands, leaving marks.

Brother Ying didn't dare to provoke her anymore, so he quickly picked up the tray and went out.

Hongshao is blocking Yinzhen at the door right now.

Yinzhen said urgently: "I want to see Mother Tong, what's wrong with her, why don't I see her!"

Hongshao hurriedly waved his hands and let the nurse and nanny who took care of him take him down.

She said: "I've been watching him closely these days, and if I put him here again, don't blame me for not being able to spare you then."

The court lady serving Yinzhen hurriedly said not to dare, and followed.

Brother Ying waited for her to finish dealing with it before going up to tell her what happened in the house.

Hongshao is a little smarter than Brother Ying: "You go down and bring a bowl of rice soup to the master, I'll go in and look at the master first."

Brother Ying nodded and went down.

Hong Shao entered the room and asked the other maids to tidy up the room.

She stepped forward, knelt down on the ground beside the bed, and held the hand of Imperial Concubine Tong Jia: "Master, don't be sad."

It took a long time for the imperial concubine Tong Jia to look at her, and said softly, almost to herself: "The emperor told me to take care of my body, Brother Ying also told me to take care of my body, and everyone of you told me to take care of my body, how can I take care of my body? That child Bigger then."

She gestured.

Ever since she gave birth, she has been in confinement, only Hong Shao and Brother Ying brought her in to see her two or three times, and they have never seen her again.

She had waited and waited for this child for a long time. How could she accept the fact that she died so easily?

As she talked, she couldn't help but shed tears: "She was gone before she had time to look at the world properly. As a mother, can I not feel bad?"

She spoke, weeping every word: "He has many children, but I only have her."

She lay on her back and wept bitterly.

Hong Shao only held her hand and remained silent.

After Brother Ying brought in the rice soup, he coaxed and comforted her in various ways before he could feed her the rice soup.

The imperial concubine Tong Jia cried unbearably, and it was difficult to use up the rice soup.

When I was tired from crying, the dirt in the house was cleaned up.

Brother Ying and Hong Shao just went out.

Hongshao sighed and said: "I have already checked the people around the little master, and there is nothing prohibited. I also asked the palace people around her, and they all said that they vomited milk at night and had a high fever. I also invited someone to look at it. These are all recorded in the Tai Hospital and cannot be faked."

Brother Ying couldn't help but said with a bitter face: "Who in the whole palace doesn't know that the master cares about the little master very much, and the people who serve the little master are all picky and picky, and they are very meticulous."

Hongshao sighed and said: "That's right, the things brought in from others have not even been near the side hall where the little master is. Who knows that such a thing will happen again for no reason."

If there is anyone who doesn't want anything to happen to the little master, it must be them who are servants.Who knows what the master will do in grief.

Although most of the maids in the palace were born in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and compared to ordinary people, they can be considered to have a bit of family background, but they have to be compared with whom.

Although the imperial concubine Tong Jia would not want all of them to be buried with the young master, but killing a few people with a stick would only be lightly let go by the emperor.

Brother Ying sighed: "That's not true, I have come to serve the little master."

"They've come to me too."

The two sighed in unison and looked at each other.

Since he was out for a stroll, Kangxi accompanied the empress dowager all the way to Mount Wutai. Once he reached the uphill, the emperor would get off the sedan chair and personally protect the empress dowager.

 In a rage, Concubine Dun beat a court lady to death.

  Emperor Qianlong was furious when he heard the news.Concubine Dun was removed from the concubine position and demoted to the rank of concubine, and soon restored to the concubine position.

  Since Concubine Dun was guilty, the ten princesses were sent to other concubines' palaces.Later, because the ten princesses cried day and night, they could not eat during the day and sleep at night.Qianlong then sent the ten princesses back to the palace of concubines to raise them.
  ps, many people will say balabala, but after beating someone to death, they are only demoted after being furious.

  Shunzhi also wanted to sacrifice a group of people for the life of Concubine Dong E.

  Prince smallpox, human pox is not safe, Kangxi directly selected [-] people as experimental subjects, four of them died
  The status of the harem ladies in the Qing Dynasty was higher than that of the previous dynasties, but it was also limited.So don't tell me that the court ladies of the Qing Dynasty will not be killed with sticks
  ----

  According to official history, Shunzhi got smallpox and died
  According to unofficial records, Shunzhi became a monk in Mount Wutai

  I don't know if I said it before.This paper adopts the latter.

  ----

  Elder Xingchi lived during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. His birth date is unknown. He passed away in the 49th year of Kangxi at the age of 73.Emperor Shunzhi also died at 24, and he was 73 years old when he lived.

  Emperor Shunzhi was once named Xingchi by Xingsen, um, wake up late.

  In the 49th year of Kangxi, the year when the elder Xingchi passed away, Emperor Kangxi granted him a stone tablet with the inscription "Dangtang Changshang". The first part is "Beitian Tujin", which is the suffix of the word "Emperor Shunzhi".

  A late-awakened elder has a portrait of him wearing cassock and sitting on a dragon chair:

  Baiyun Temple has special glazed tiles engraved with dragon patterns.

  Baidu can search for late monks.
