Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Dynasty

In October 20, Depin was diagnosed as two months pregnant.In the same month, Wu Shifan committed suicide.In Kecheng in November, the "San Francisco Rebellion" initiated by Wu Sangui has been completely put down, ending the serious separation of Yunnan, Guizhou, Fujian and Guangdong.The former court was festive and peaceful, but the harem was overcast with clouds. The empress was seriously ill, and now she has fallen into a coma!

An He's eyes were red and swollen from crying, and he personally served soup and medicine, and refused to leave for half a step, but it failed to improve the empress's comatose state.The queen's critical illness caused Kangxi's joy in his heart because of the peace of San Francisco to drop by five points in an instant. He summoned the doctor Wang to inquire carefully, and found out that the queen's body was deficient. It was just because the queen kept silent and Kangxi was busy with government affairs There has been no questioning, which has led to the current situation.

"The empress said before that the emperor is busy with government affairs, so she ordered the minister not to disturb the emperor with this matter." Wang Taiyi put his head on the floor of the Qianqing Palace, "The minister has changed countless prescriptions for the empress these days. In the end, it was just to save the empress's life. The empress's body has been deficient for a long time, and she often has trouble sleeping and eating. Forgive me for talking too much, I am afraid that the empress is paralyzed by medicine."

"Understood, I don't blame you, let's go down." After a long time, Kangxi's exhausted voice was heard, Wang Taiyi quickly kowtowed again, and walked out of the Qianqing Palace in a cold sweat.

Li Dequan listened sincerely from the side, and seeing that Kangxi still had no intention of passing on the meal under the sun, he stepped forward and bowed: "Your Majesty, it's getting late, why don't you ask the person in the imperial dining room to pass on the meal later. Your Majesty, For a period of time, I forgot to sleep and eat because of the follow-up of San Francisco, and if this continues, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager may be worried."

"I'm not hungry." Kangxi sighed, "Show me Kunning Palace."

The queen's bedroom was filled with a smell of medicine, Kangxi waved his hand to greet the people in the house, and asked Li Dequan to wait outside, before walking slowly to the queen's bed.In front of the couch, a woman in a water-blue flag dress was wiping the queen's face. Kangxi recognized that it was An He, and put his hand on her shoulder. Bones gone.

"Your Majesty!" An He hurriedly wiped away the tears on his face, "Greetings to His Majesty."

"You don't need to care about these empty etiquettes anymore. How is the queen?" Kangxi sat on the side of the couch and reached out to touch the queen's face.Feeling the cold temperature under his hand, he slowly withdrew his hand and asked.

"Woke up and ate a bowl of porridge, and fell asleep after taking the medicine." An He choked up, "The imperial doctor said that it can only be raised like this, and maybe the spirit will improve after a while."

"Thank you, go down, I want to be alone with the queen." Kangxi glanced at An He and waved his hand, "You still have a little elder brother to take care of, don't tire yourself out. Go back to sleep."

An He stepped out of the dormitory with one step and three turns.Seeing her coming out, Wanyan Mammy hurriedly supported her, and the feeling of her hand was very human. Wanyan Mammy was worried and didn't know how to persuade her. She couldn't eat a bite of the soup stewed for An He. If this continues, even if the queen recovers from her illness, her master will also fall down.

"I'm fine, let's go back." An He twitched the corners of his mouth, looking at the dark clouds rolling in the sky, "It's going to snow."

The queen woke up once that night, said a few words to Kangxi, and then fell into a coma again.Kangxi ordered Concubine Tong Gui to assist in the affairs of the Six Palaces, and she stayed in Kunning Palace every day after closing the pen. Perhaps because of Kangxi's company, the queen's condition gradually stabilized, and finally An He breathed a sigh of relief.

An He spent the days after the New Year between taking care of the children and serving the queen.The San Francisco event is scheduled to reopen the talent show. A large number of over-age show girls report to the Ministry of Finance and get married quickly, and women of the right age will participate in the election one by one.The queen can get up now, but she has not taken over the affairs of the harem. Concubine Tong and the fourth concubine are in charge of the draft.Kangxi only accepted two concubine concubines, and the rest of the beautiful women who left their signs all pointed to marriage to the Eight Banners who performed outstandingly during the San Francisco Rebellion.This draft was held in a hurry, and Concubine Tong worked hard to do it well and did not dare to slack off.

While the new couple entered the palace, An He was talking to the queen in Kunning Palace.

"Because of my illness, my little elder brother didn't have a good year. I heard that the emperor hasn't given him a name yet?" The queen swallowed a mouthful of the medicinal soup, frowned slightly, and said, "It's all because of my poor health."

"Sister, what nonsense, the most important thing is to get better soon." An He handed over a plate of pickled hawthorn, "Sister, eat a hawthorn to suppress the bitter taste in your mouth. I have already asked someone to boil it for my sister." Yam and lean meat porridge, you can use it later. After eating the porridge, my sister will sleep well, and she will definitely wake up in better spirits tomorrow."

The queen smiled and said nothing, her eyes lingered on An He, and she said after a while, "Nurse, go to the cabinet and get the book I asked you to put away earlier."

With red eyes, Nanny Zhou took it silently and put it in front of the queen.The queen pushed the notebook in front of An He, and said, "Take it, it will definitely be useful in the future."

An He didn't know, so he opened it and looked, only to find that the names, positions, and palaces of the confidantes arranged by the Queen in the harem for so many years were all written on it.The handwriting on it is new and old, and it can be seen that some of them were added recently, and the handwriting becomes more and more scribbled as it goes to the back.An He closed the book with a "snap": "Sister?!"

"I have nothing to leave you. These people have worked for Niu Hulu's family for many years. I have sent them a message that they will all belong to you in the future." The queen coughed a few times, "The emperor has sent Tong Guifei's My concubine gave Yan Zhu his wife, so I have nothing to worry about. Fu Bao and Yin De are still young, so there is no need to worry too much about the marriage; Ah Ling, according to the emperor's intention, I am afraid that he will be given another title in the future , I have nothing to worry about. But you are different, I brought you into the palace, I am afraid I will not be able to protect you in the future, these people will be your help in the future, you have to make good use of them."

"What silly things did my sister say!" An He hurriedly took the Queen's hand, "You will definitely get better!"

"You are the one who speaks stupid things. I know my body, but now I'm just struggling. Physician Wang has told me, and I have accepted the fact." The Queen wiped away tears for An He with a smile, "There are many concubines who are favored in the harem, but the emperor loves Empress Renxiao the most. Like me, if you fall in love with the emperor, you will never get what you want in your life. Don't be like me."

An He was already in tears, lying on the queen's lap and weeping bitterly.

"Stupid boy, this is the last time you cry like this." The queen put her hand on An He's thin shoulder, "You still have a little elder brother, you must be strong in the future. Mother, I'm tired, let people Send Anhe back."

"Yes." Nanny Zhou said with a trembling voice, "My lord, please go back first."

An He saw the queen's peaceful appearance through eyes blurred by tears, gritted his teeth and stood up, and said softly: "Tomorrow, I will bring my little elder brother to greet my sister." After speaking, he shook his head She took the notebook given to her by the queen and walked out with the help of Wanyan Nanny.

"Silly girl..." the queen closed her eyes and said angrily.

"Master is tired, servant girl, let the master go to sleep." Nanny Zhou waved away the other maids in the room, and waited for the queen to sleep.She kept her eyes open, watching the queen pass away in her sleep in the middle of the night, and then said in a low voice, "The servant has been serving the master since he was young. The servant is very grateful to the master for arranging a way out for the servant, but the servant has no one to rely on all his life Damn, they all treat the master as their own daughter. The slaves are afraid that the master will not be served, so let the slaves go with the master."

After all, he took out a dagger from his sleeve and ended his life with a smile.

An He woke up from the nightmare, ignoring that she was only wearing pajamas, and hurried to the queen's bedroom with a female cape on.Her face was covered in cold sweat, and she pushed the gatekeeper aside with one hand, and saw Nanny Zhou lying on the side of the queen's bed, but the smell of blood was in the air.An He staggered forward a few steps and came to the queen's side, stretched out his hand and gently put it in front of the queen's nose, and closed his eyes and cried bitterly after a long time.

There was a muffled thunder outside, followed by pouring rain.
