The Biography of Concubine Xi of Yongzheng

Chapter 626
When Shao Yao prepared all the things according to Yan Hua's instructions, it was already three days later.

"Master, do you really want to do this?" Shaoyao's wooden face, which is always calm, has asked Yanhua this question several times in the past few days. Yanhua couldn't help but roll her eyes at her every time. Didn't even bother to answer.

If she hadn't thought about it, she wouldn't have acted like this.

"The emperor has more and more white hairs, look at me, there are only a few hairs so far, I'm really worried." Shao Yao refused to do it for a long time, Yanhua couldn't help but chattered.

"But... Your Majesty, look at this harem, is there any woman who doesn't want to stay young forever? There is no one like Your Majesty, who longs for more and more white hair... Your Majesty, listen to the persuasion of this slave, Your Majesty I must still like to see young and beautiful faces, not..." Shao Yao's words flowed out like a river that suddenly opened its gates.

"Isn't it impossible to change back to the previous appearance?" Yanhua touched the fine lines at the corners of her eyes and sighed silently.It would be great if he could go back to the past. He is young and she is innocent. Every day, honey is mixed with oil. Although there will be awkwardness, it is better than now. I don't know when it will be.She never thinks he is old, she just wants to hold hands with him for a few more years.

She was stunned for a while, seeing that Shao Yao was still holding the pot and frowning, she called out impatiently: "Du Ruo, get it here."

She glanced at Shao Yao through the mirror, sighed and said: "You have been with me for so many years, you should know my temperament. I said that the emperor will not dislike you, and you will not. Why do you always worry about these things? I 31 years of ups and downs with him, not relying on this pair of skins."

Shao Yao handed the jar to Du Ruo, turned around and wiped the corners of her eyes secretly: "Master treats the emperor so far, it can be regarded as a deep affection. The servant just... just can't see the master getting old, the servant wants to serve the master all the time."

Yan Hua secretly sighed, then turned around and reprimanded lightly: "Don't cry like this, the emperor is just sick, you need to smile more in front of him. Go down and rest, it's enough for Du Ruo to serve you here, I think you will definitely It's because I haven't slept well in the past few days, and I don't have enough energy to be so sentimental, isn't it just white hair, what's the big deal."

Shao Yao silently nodded and retreated silently.How could she not feel uncomfortable, every time she was watching the night, she could always hear Concubine Xi sighing, she was clearly asleep, but she was still so preoccupied, she was afraid that she would be separated from the emperor.

The next day, it was obviously a dull July day, but Yan Hua wore a cloak with a hood to cover her head tightly.

When they arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Hongli was reporting to Yinzhen inside, while Yanhua waited outside for a while, almost fainting from the heat.When she came all the way in the sedan chair, she was already sweating profusely. To surprise Yinzhen, would it be easy for her?When getting off the sedan chair just now, the guards outside were visibly shaken. Although no one dared to squint at her, she clearly caught a glimpse of confusion in Wei Changan's eyes, and more puzzled.

When Su Peisheng came out to ask Yanhua to go to the side hall to rest first, he was obviously taken aback when he saw that she was wrapped up like a rice dumpling: "Madam... Are you feeling uncomfortable? It's such a hot day, wrapped so thickly, Don't you want to get bored?"

He hurriedly ushered Yan Hua to the side hall, for fear that she would suddenly faint from heat.

"Hey, it's really not easy for me to surprise the emperor." After sitting down, she wanted to untie her cloak and put down her hat. After a second thought, she stopped, "When the emperor is free, please tell me quickly." , if you continue to be bored like this, you must not bore me to death."

She drank a cup of tea and took a few mouthfuls of iced watermelon before suppressing the early morning heat in her heart.

After Hongli came out, he heard Su Peisheng mentioning her strangeness, so he ran to greet her in person: "Why does Erniang wrap her in a big cloak? What should I do if it's too hot?"

Yanhua ignored him, and walked towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation with a smile.

Hongli knew that he was being ignored again, but he still supported her all the way, for fear that she would suddenly faint from heat.

At that time, Yinzhen was frowning and holding on to the dragon case, thinking about something, and raised his head quickly after hearing Su Peisheng's biography.Seeing a bloated figure approaching quickly, he couldn't help but let out a "puchi" laugh: "What are you doing? Are you afraid of the cold in such a hot day?"

Yan Hua slowly kissed him: "Your Majesty, the concubine's surprise has arrived."

Panting for breath, she unbuttoned her cloak, and the moment she took off her hat, everyone in the hall was shocked by the scene in front of them and held their breath.Yan Hua, who was originally full of black hair, turned white like snow overnight!
Yanhua took out a handkerchief to wipe off the sweat from her forehead, glanced at Hongli who was stunned aside, then looked at Yinzhen who was motionless, and said with a smile: "What are you doing? The emperor still remembers the concubines." wishes?"

Yinzhen recovered from the shock, pointed at her full head of gorgeous hair, and asked in doubt: "Death and life are broad, talk to Zicheng, hold your hand, and grow old with him?" His voice was trembling faintly, His Chanchan, to actually do this for him, really makes him love and pity him endlessly.

Yanhua smiled and nodded: "To grow old together, isn't that the case. The concubine is wayward, the emperor likes it?"

Yinzhen pursed his lips, and snorted heavily: "It would be a surprise if you become beautiful, but now you are getting old and ugly, it can only be regarded as a shock."

Yanhua smiled indifferently, turned her head to see Hongli still standing there stupidly, and hurriedly chased him away: "Don't you have nothing to do? Don't go down yet."

"Emiang~" Hongli said, both Yinzhen and Yanhua couldn't help laughing.It turned out that because Hongli was too surprised, the sound changed when he uttered it, like a father-in-law who was speaking with a choked voice, sharp and unpleasant.

Hongli made a joke, and hurriedly adjusted his voice with a red face, and then said in surprise: "Why did Er Niang's hair become so white overnight? Er Niang was painted with something, and it can change come back?"

"Why, you despise your mother-in-law's ugly appearance?" Before Yanhua could speak, Yinzhen suddenly became unhappy, looked at Hongli coldly and snorted.

"I don't dare!" Hongli had tears in his eyes, and quickly lowered his head, "Huang Ama and Er Niang are very affectionate, and my son is very happy."

"Then don't go down, don't stay here to be an eyesore, I want to have a private conversation with your mother." Yinzhen laughed and drove him away.

The corner of Hongli's mouth twitched, he secretly raised his hand to wipe the corner of his eyes, and then retreated in response.

From that day on, Yan Hua started to travel around the palace with her gorgeous hair on her head. All the palace people were very curious, but no one dared to ask.

Yanhua didn't hide it either, and walked back and forth between the Hall of Mental Cultivation and Jingren Palace with her gorgeous hair every day.Every time she washes her hair to wash off the white matter, she asks someone to reapply it for her.She asked Shao Yao to go to Tai Hospital to get that thing, and it was the prescription Jiang Yu made up.

At the end of July, there was a heavy rain, and the weather suddenly became much cooler. Yinzhen and Yanhua went up to the turret next to the imperial garden together to watch the sunset in the west.The setting sun reflected half of the sky red, making the whole Imperial Garden seem to be covered with a layer of red gauze, which is strange and beautiful.

Yinzhen tightened Yanhua's hand, turned his head to watch her slowly curling the corners of his mouth.

Yanhua's heart warmed up, and she leaned her head on his shoulder: "Zhen Lang spares some time every day to accompany me to watch the morning sun, the sunset, and the rolling clouds in the sky, okay?"

He chuckled, wrapped in tenderness and sweetness, and said "yes" softly.

The world is impermanent, and in mid-August, the autumn air struck, and Yinzhen's body was once again infected with illness.Yan Hua stayed by her side all day long, the two of them seemed to have made an agreement, and neither of them showed even the slightest bit of sadness.

On the day of August 22nd, Yinzhen seemed to be aware of something suddenly, so Su Peisheng took out a piece of paper and handed it to Yanhua.

Yanhua saw that it was written down by her in black and white, to the effect that she would follow what Yinzhen said in the future, and there was a sign drawn by herself in the signature.

At that time, she could no longer restrain the sadness in her heart, her voice was trembling: "Zhen Lang, what are you... doing with this?"

"I grew up with you fourteen years ago, so I always want to be one step ahead of you, so I keep this thing just to make you obedient." He smiled weakly, his eyes full of nostalgia.He never thought that he would run out of fuel so early, but he himself knows best what is going on with his body. He goes.

He was reluctant to let her go with him, it was because he was selfish, he wanted to use her eyes to watch this country pass on safely.

"I have written a lot of small letters since I lived in the mansion. I used to show them to you to save face. Later, when I think about it, when I am gone, you can take them out and read them for thoughts... In the future, I will write them down. Give the key to Hongli, and ask him to take one for you to see every day. Hehe... I will not give you the key, otherwise, you must be greedy, and you will want to look at many of them in a day." His eyes were always focused on hers. On the face and hair, the thick reluctance seemed to be an inextricable night, and it was astonishingly deep.

She bit her lower lip tightly, unwilling to let her tears fall...

On August 13, the 23th year of Yongzheng, before dawn, Ertai, Zhang Tingyu and other important officials were ordered to enter the Hall of Mental Cultivation.After a while, Hongli and Hongzhou entered, and after a while, there was a loud cry from the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

A generation of diligent emperors washed away all their lead and passed away calmly with closed eyes. From the beginning to the end, Concubine Xi held his hand tightly by the side and would not let go.

After Yinzhen's death, Ertai ordered people to take out the decree from the "upright and bright" plaque in Qianqing Palace according to the edict, announcing Hongli's accession to the throne.

At the end of August, after Emperor Daxing’s Zigong stopped behind the Lama Temple, Hongli suddenly withdrew all the people from the Lama Temple, leaving only Wei Chang’an and a few other imperial guards.An hour later, Hongli sent people in to mourn as usual, and no one knew what happened during that hour.When Hongli came out, tears were streaming down his face, and when he was so sad, he almost fainted several times.

On that day, after the new emperor Hongli returned to the palace, he personally took a jade box and hurried to Jingren Palace, knelt in front of the Empress Dowager Niu Hulu and respectfully handed the box over.After seeing the box, the empress dowager burst into tears and burst into tears.

The jade box contained Yinzhen's ashes. Before his death, in front of Yanhua, he asked Hongli and Wei Chang'an to secretly cremate the dragon body after his death and hand it over to Yanhua for safekeeping.Hongli greeted her every day, and every time he would bring a small letter written by Yinzhen in front of him.

On the third day of September, Hongli, the emperor, was located in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. He issued an imperial edict to amnesty the world. The following year was regarded as the first year of Qianlong, and another legendary dynasty, the Qianlong Dynasty, began.Xi noble concubine Niu Hulu's family is honored as the empress dowager, and her emblem is the empress dowager of Chongqing.
