Chapter Eighty-Four: Serving the Sick
Chapter Eighty-Four: Serving the Sick
After Yinzhen officially ascended the throne, the affairs of the court were first started, even if he was as shrewd as him, he couldn't get out of his body for a while, except for the night after the seal lived in Chuxiu Palace for one night, for half a month, he never stepped into the harem.
However, the canonization of the concubines has not been forgotten, but there is only one person on the concubine throne, who gave birth to two emperors, and is also the Li family of the Yongwang Mansion side Fujin.
The Song family once gave birth to a child for Prince Yong, regardless of whether the child is there or not, it has to be given to it with dignity, and it is canonized as a concubine, and other women are just nobles and the like.
In fact, Ouyang and Zhiyun don't mind taking a high position to these women, but once the position is high, it is inevitable that ambition will breed, and the lower the position is easier to control.
Because he has just entered the palace, Ouyang is busy in the previous dynasty, Zhiyun is not easy in the harem, and the concubines and concubines of Yinzhen are okay, most of them have been trained very steadily, at least no one dares to go against the queen mother openly, and it is not so difficult to manage.
But the concubines of the Emperor Taishang, except for the young and concubines who were favored in their later years, were called by the Emperor Taishang to go to Changchun Garden to serve the sick, the others did not move to the palace for the time being, these women all have children, especially the four concubines, who have been sitting on the throne in the Kangxi Dynasty for 20 years, and none of them are good-looking.
Fortunately, although these women are old, they are still well-maintained and quite graceful, Zhiyun goes to see them every day, and she doesn't feel troublesome when she arrives, plus Yinzhen doesn't mean to treat her brothers lightly, Zhiyun not only won't be embarrassed by these women, but she is very happy to be flattered-
Yinzhen's brothers, the older ones were all crowned kings, and the younger ones were also given the title of Baylor, even if they were like Brother A, they didn't give the new emperor a good look, as long as he didn't really do anything unfavorable to the court, Yinzhen just laughed at it, and didn't go to his heart at all, he still relied on him when he should be relied on, and several more profitable yamen, such as the Overseas Trade Division, were all thrown to him to take care of.
As a result, Yun Zhen was a little entangled and silent, and in the end he still stopped thinking about continuing to make trouble, as for the eighth elder brother who was canonized as Prince Lian, Yinzhen did not arrange an errand. However, this is Yinzhen's preparation to completely hand over the affairs of the 'Red Mansion' to him, with the assistance of the eleven elder brothers, with the ability of the eighth elder brother, I believe that it will not be long before the officials in the court on the side of the Red Mansion will be able to make him almost enveloped, plus his own control over the army...... It should not take a few years to fully grasp the world of Red Mansions.
The busy New Year passed, and in February, Kangxi suddenly fainted in Changchun Garden.
This time, Manchaowu was not as frightened as before, and the imperial doctors and Yinzhen Zhiyun were also prepared, after all, they knew Kangxi's physical condition very well, and it was already a miracle that it could be delayed until now.
So, the newly baked queen mother entrusted the palace affairs to Concubine Qi and went to Changchun Garden to serve the sick.
Early in the morning, before the sky was bright, Zhiyun got up, since she was going to serve the sick, she did not wear the queen's court dress, only picked a royal blue placket buckle flag dress, no makeup, head jewelry is very few, only a few, when going out, the footsteps paused, as if suddenly remembered something, Zhiyun hung a bracelet made of eighteen sapphires on his wrist.
The queen's car slowly drove into Changchun Garden, this is not the first time Zhiyun has been to Changchun Garden, but every time she comes here, she feels that this place is much more comfortable than the palace, not only the scenery is beautiful, but also the palace can never have a sense of leisure, no wonder the people who love the Xinjue Luo family have always regarded this as a blessed place to recuperate, even Zhiyun saw it, and gave birth to a little more thoughts.
When he arrived at the Long Live Lord's permanent residence and recuperation, Li Dequan greeted him early and saluted: "The slave asks the queen mother to say goodbye, and the mother is blessed." ”
"Mr. Li is exempt." Zhiyun is vain, she has always been very kind to the chief eunuch in front of Kangxi, and Li Dequan is a good person, cautious and loyal, and capable, I think Ouyang will also rely on him in the future, "Is the emperor okay?" ”
"Hui Niangniang, the Emperor Taishang is in good spirits today, and he talked to the fourth elder brother for a long time just now, and I also ate half a bowl of porridge for breakfast." Manager Li almost smiled with a flower on his face, "The Emperor Taishang said that the mother doesn't need to be polite when she arrives, just go in." ”
"That's good." Zhiyun smiled, got out of the car, and walked in with Manager Li, bypassing the carved large screen of rosewood, and saw Kangxi sitting on the stepping bed with a robe and reading, with a gold-rimmed glasses on his eyes, which was one of the gifts given by Zhiyun for Kangxi's tenth birthday.
"Zhiyun is here, cough cough, it's still comfortable to wear the mirror sent by Zhiyun......"
"Huang Ama likes it is a blessing for his daughter-in-law."
Zhiyun looked around with a smile, and saw that next to the compensation where Kangxi was, there was a sandalwood basin rack, a coat rack, and a charcoal brazier in front of the bed was making a loud sound, and the room was as warm as spring. Under the reflection of the firelight, Kangxi's cheeks were flushed, the color was very improper and quite morbid, but his spirit was indeed better than a few days ago.
"Come, Zhiyun sit down, Amma's eyes are tired, you read this book to Amma."
Zhiyun nodded, stretched out his hand and asked the palace maids to give them the cloaks, sat down on the embroidered pier in front of the bed, and took the book handed by Kangxi, a thick volume wrapped in calfskin, and opened it to see, it was actually a travelogue, I don't know the author's name, but the pen is good, the language is concise, the feelings are abundant, and the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers of the Qing Dynasty is vividly depicted, which is mixed with customs and myths and legends, and there are one after another folk tales.
This author is obviously very good at telling stories, no wonder Kangxi is fascinated by it.
Kangxi closed his eyes, and Zhiyun's clear voice began to echo in his ears, and his thoughts couldn't help but become in a trance.
I don't know how long it took, there was a sudden commotion outside, Kangxi opened his eyes, frowned, and said, "Li Dequan, what's going on outside?" ”
Li Dequan hurriedly arrived, and saluted with an embarrassed face: "Back to the Emperor, the queen's mother, the fourteenth elder brother has been making trouble in front of the door to see the emperor...... The emperor has just arrived...... The fourteenth elder brother was disrespectful. ”
Li Dequan said vaguely, but the people in the room are all smart people, and they don't need to think about it to know that it must be the fourteenth elder brother and the emperor who can't get along, and what he says must not be very good.
Sure enough, I heard a faint angry roar outside-"Fourth brother, why don't you let me see Huang Ama, what are you thinking, are you ......?"
Zhiyun pursed her lips secretly, and sighed in her heart, Fourteen shouldn't be a stupid person, how can he do stupid things, can this throne really make people dizzy and turn smart people into fools?
Kangxi was stunned, and suddenly coughed violently, and the corners of his mouth even oozed black and red blood, Zhiyun was startled, and hurriedly got up and patted him on the back.
"Good, what a filial son...... Okay, just let him blow the wind outside and be calm and calm...... Li Dequan, you go and spread my will, please invite the emperor to come in, as for the fourteenth, I don't have him, who doesn't know how to respect and disrespect his brother...... "Kangxi closed his eyes, wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, and the blood on his face was gone, faintly graying with death......
Li Dequan wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, didn't dare to say a word, and obediently went out to spread the word.
After a while, Yinzhen came in, he didn't wear court clothes, just a royal blue regular clothes, to match Zhiyun very well, Kangxi looked at his son and daughter-in-law, his anger dissipated, a flash of relief flashed in his eyes, and he raised his hand and said: "Come, your majesty, you come." ”
Ouyang showed a little concern on his face, hurriedly held Kangxi's hand, sat down closely, and tidied up the robe on Kangxi's body, "How is Huang Ama's body, has Imperial Doctor Sun come to see it?" ”
Kangxi shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't talk about this...... Hey, fourth, the Qing Dynasty will be handed over to you, Ama believes that you will not disappoint Amma. I've seen it very clearly over the years...... Although today's Qing Dynasty is not full of holes, it can also be corrupted by officials, and corrupt officials and corrupt officials are rampant......"
Kangxi couldn't help frowning, his eyes were a little complicated, and said: "I don't know, if it weren't for you looking around for silver all these years, the treasury of our Qing Dynasty would probably be empty, but I'm old, I don't have the strength to rectify these, only you can do it...... Hey, I don't know, after a hundred years, what kind of evaluation can I get, Mingjun is still ...... What would I say about the ...... of the Qing Dynasty, the common people, and the people of the Qing Dynasty?" his eyes were scattered, and there was a faint melancholy on his gray face......
"Huang Ama" Ouyang's eyes darkened, and he said in a low voice, "Of course you are the Eternal Mingjun. ”
Zhiyun sighed, she actually didn't think Kangxi was so good, she didn't look down on all the emperors of the Qing Dynasty, these emperors killed too much, and they crushed the backbone of the common people...... In comparison, Zhiyun actually prefers the emperors of the Song Dynasty, even if they are a little weak, even if others talk about the Song Dynasty, they can say a lot of shortcomings, but at least the emperors of the Song Dynasty do not kill officials easily, and they will not be like other dynasties, they will make a big move at every turn, and the blood will flow like a river, at least the Song Dynasty is a real country stability, few civil strife, economic prosperity, and prosperity......
But at this moment, of course Zhiyun won't say anything, no matter which dynasty she used to think that the emperor of the dynasty was slightly better, that emperor didn't love Kangxi, who had sheltered her for nearly twenty years, and the relatives were different from each other, so if Kangxi could rest assured, she wouldn't mind saying something against her will, thinking, Zhiyun helped Kangxi sit down, took off the eighteen sapphires on her wrists, and rested them on the kang table.
"Huang Ama, this thing is a gift from the daughter-in-law's master......"
Kangxi raised his head suspiciously, and listened carefully to Zhiyun's words, but before Zhiyun's words got to the point, there was a commotion outside.
