Chapter 81: Gege is sick
On this day, Manhua had a cold and couldn't go out.
Concubine Yi asked the palace maid to pass the imperial doctor, but Manhua said no.
Concubine Yi lowered her face and said to her sharply: "Manhua, if you don't know how to diagnose the pulse, then if the fifth and ninth are infected by you, first ask someone to beat you with a hundred boards, and then pull you in to accept the punishment of the national law!" ”
"Okay, okay, can't Manhua go?" Manhua saw Concubine Yi joking with her, and agreed with a smile.
After the imperial physician entered the Yikun Palace, the eunuchs and concubines of the Yikun Palace came to the quiet wing room where Manhua lived.
After the doctor diagnosed the pulse, he prescribed the medicine to Manhua, saying that it was just an ordinary cold, and he would be fine if he drank some decoction.
Manhua sat in the room where she lived, and after drinking the decoction brought by Qiu He, she didn't bother to move.
Brother Jiu came to Manhua's place and asked her through the window, "Cousin Manhua, how are you?" ”
"It's not good, I've drunk the decoction!"
"Cousin Manhua, if you have anything you want to eat, I'll get it for you!"
"No need, I'm sorry for you, cousin, I just want to get a good night's sleep!"
"Then you go to sleep, I'm leaving!" Brother Jiu then left.
The two princes, the ninth elder brother and the fifth elder brother, were not allowed to enter the room where Manhua lived. This is Concubine Yi's order, after all, Manhua is not out of the cabinet, and she is still the granddaughter of Prince An, if you are not careful, it will not be good for you to let the people in the palace spread gossip.
Concubine Yi will protect the reputation of herself and the prince she gave birth to, and she has done a good job.
Concubine Tong Jia is the concubine of Tong Guowei, the uncle of the Principality of Cheng'en, although she is not the concubine born in the main room, but she is both the cousin of Emperor Kangxi and the sister-in-law, so after her sister Empress Xiaoyiren, she was named a concubine at the age of 32. There is no queen in the middle palace, and there is no imperial concubine, so Concubine Tong Jia became the actual head of the harem. Concubine Tong Jia also manages the affairs of the six palaces, which is equivalent to the deputy queen
Because there is only one concubine in the harem, Tong Jia's family, and the status of other harem concubines is not as high as her, so Tong Jia's concubine has become the harem lady with the highest rank in the Qing Dynasty.
Although the fourth elder brother Yinzhen was born to Concubine De, he was personally raised by Empress Xiaoyiren as soon as he was born. Empress Xiao Yiren was the imperial concubine at that time, and she was not allowed to be made the queen. Because Kangxi Ye thought that he would kill the queen, after the first two queens, he did not establish a queen. At that time, she had no queen above her, and Kangxi's biological mother, Empress Xiaokangzhang, was her aunt, she was Kangxi's cousin, and Tong Guowei, the uncle of the Principality of Chengen, the minister of the guard, was her Amma, and the fourth elder brother lived by the side of Empress Xiaoyiren, and the comfort was stronger than that of Concubine De.
Empress Xiao Yiren was only established as the queen after her death and was buried with the courtesy of the queen. The fourth elder brother is extremely unfamiliar with Concubine De's biological mother, and is extremely unwilling to accept her, and the relationship between mother and son is indifferent.
Empress Xiaoyiren was in the queen's house, and the fourth elder brother returned to live with Concubine De. What Concubine De didn't expect was that the fourth elder brother and the Tong Jia family were still as close as a family, and they still treated Long Keduo as an uncle. Therefore, Concubine De was dissatisfied with the fourth elder brother, and the relationship between mother and son was cold to the freezing point.
In addition to the filial piety to Concubine De that the fourth elder brother has to do on the surface, he rarely goes to Concubine De. Mother and son, in front of the world, are mother and son, but in private, they are not as cold as passers-by.
Because Concubine Tong Jia did not give birth to a prince and did not have the support of the prince, she is now the highest in the harem, and treats the fourth elder brother as her own son. Therefore, the relationship between Concubine Tong Jia and the fourth elder brother is more intimate than the relationship between the elder brother and Concubine De.
