87. The Qing Dynasty, Which Was Worn Like a Sieve (Twenty)

There was a turmoil in the court. Kangxi was busy all day long and had long forgotten about the concubine De in prison. But he forgot, but his men didn't dare to forget, and were still thinking of ways to pry open Concubine De's mouth. Because Concubine De's confidants had confessed many things about her, they discovered that Concubine De had placed three people there because her grandfather had worked in the imperial kitchen! This is a very dangerous thing for the emperor, and they naturally have to find out if there are any other fish that have slipped through the net.

Even though De Fei has spiritual spring water to nourish her body, the pain she endures every day is real. Day after day passed, Kangxi had no intention of treating her decently, and he did not care about her being the biological mother of two princes and two princesses. She finally felt the feeling of despair and collapsed, revealing her final trump card.

"I can make the emperor live forever! I will use this... to exchange for glory and wealth for the rest of my life."

As Concubine De spoke, she raised her hand to the broken bowl in front of her, allowing people to see with their own eyes that the spiritual spring water appeared out of thin air at her fingertips and slowly flowed into the bowl.

Her interrogator looked at her in surprise and immediately reported the incident. The bowl of spiritual spring water was also taken away by Taiyuan Hospital for inspection. They had long been surprised by De Concubine's condition. According to the intensity of their torture, even a strong man would have died. However, De Concubine recovered a lot soon after returning to prison. They even suspected that there was a nail in the prison for Concubine De, and they kept trying to find her out. Unexpectedly, Concubine De showed her magic skills now!

Taiyuan Hospital was secretly making various attempts, and was pleasantly surprised to find that the spiritual spring water was very beneficial to the human body. Although it cannot lead to immortality, it can indeed strengthen the body and prolong life. It can even cure some minor diseases. It also has excellent curative effect on internal injuries, plague, smallpox, etc. If it can be taken for a long time, it will definitely become a healthy and long-lived person. It's absolutely fine to be a hundred years old.

In an era when most people died in their forties or fifties, living to be a hundred years old was simply an irresistible attraction, and Kangxi was no exception. He went to the dungeon in person, and when he saw the embarrassed but not haggard Concubine De, he said calmly: "I didn't expect you to have such good fortune."

Concubine De smoothed her hair, sat upright, and put on a negotiating posture, "I can never leave Yonghe Palace for the rest of my life. As long as I am fed, clothed, and treated like a queen, and I live well until I grow old, I will provide you with a bowl of spiritual spring water every day. Your Majesty, Compared with lifespan, my small request is not too much, right?"

It is indeed not too much. If a Taoist can help the emperor prolong his life, it is not too much to be named a national preceptor, let alone a woman who only wants food and clothing and is willing to be grounded. But when Kangxi thought of Concubine De's ruthless treatment of Yinzhen and her fearless attitude, he felt unhappy and immediately sneered, "I want to live a long life, but I don't like to be threatened. Sinful woman Wu Yashi, you You underestimate my ability."

In Concubine De's surprised and puzzled eyes, Kangxi left without looking back. No matter how much she shouted, she never paused. Immediately afterwards, Concubine De was knocked unconscious by a masked man in black and taken away. When she woke up again, she was in a quiet, empty small room, pitch black, with cold walls except for the locked iron door. She panicked and yelled, but no one paid attention to her, and no one brought her food. If it weren't for the water from her spiritual spring that could kill her, she would have starved to death!

Moreover, in such a closed and dark environment, she could not feel the passage of time. She became increasingly empty and doubtful about herself. She suddenly regretted why she was so ambitious. If she lives her life honestly and relies on the nourishment of the spiritual spring water, is she still afraid that she will not be able to grow old safely? Maybe she can become the queen mother smoothly when she gets old, so why do she have to fight for her own biological child? Little Fourteen's appearance was blurred in her mind. What was the meaning of everything she did?

After she regretted it, she began to resent it. I hate that Tong Jia's family is immortal, I hate that my sixth elder brother is too playful and fell into the water, I hate that the emperor does not miss his old friendship, I hate that Yinzhen is unfilial and untidy, I hate that the fourteenth child does not recognize his biological mother, I hate that my daughter is closer to Su Yuanyuan, I hate that the whole family is full of trash …

The man in black was the strongest secret guard around Kangxi. He observed Concubine De from the small hole in the iron gate every day. Ten days later, Concubine De was on the verge of collapse and on the verge of madness. He then opened the small window on the iron door and placed the white porridge and pickles outside the door, "Just put a jar of spiritual spring water, and these will be yours." "

Without thinking, Concubine De stretched out her fingers and filled the jar to the brim, even overflowing! Then when he got the porridge and pickles, he wolfed them into his mouth, without any intention of negotiating or resisting.

The man in black carefully caught the overflowing spiritual spring water, used it for the imperial doctor to test medicine, and then sealed the jar and sent it to Kangxi. Concubine De couldn't do anything, so the Lingquan water was fine, so Kangxi drank a bowl and gave the prince, Tong Jiawanxian, Yinzhen, Su Yuanyuan and the twins each a bowl. Of course, he found an excuse and gave it to them without leaving any trace. No one knew about it except the person who handled it, Li Dequan. However, Su Yuanyuan tasted it in one bite. She glanced at Kangxi calmly and felt that Concubine De was afraid that she was too smart but was misled by her cleverness.

In the next few days, Kangxi kept drinking spiritual spring water with them. When the jar bottomed out, the man in black opened the small window of the iron door again. Concubine De saw hope after eating plain porridge once, but several days of darkness and claustrophobia made her even more desperate. This time when I saw the small window open, I immediately rushed over and stretched out my fingers, shouting in a voice like a broken gong: "Here you are! Give you spiritual spring water! Give me something to eat! Give me something to eat!"

This time, the man in black placed shredded chicken porridge and egg custard outside the door. The scent drifted into the door, making Concubine De become more and more anxious, "Give it to me! Give it to me every day! Please, please!"

The man in black set out ten jars, and Concubine De quickly filled them up before he could say anything, and then drank the shredded chicken porridge with satisfaction. The man in black narrowed his eyes and said bewitchingly: "If you show me how to divert water, you can go out and see the light again and eat every day."

"How to divert water? No, there is no way to divert water. I let it come out and it will come out." Concubine De held the bowl and ate loudly. She replied incoherently, "The spiritual spring water is in my soul. It doesn't matter if I tell you. It doesn't matter." People can take it.”

After finishing her meal, she threw herself against the iron door again, hoping to say: "Let me out, I don't dare to raise any conditions, I can have a simple meal, anything, don't lock me here alone, it's so dark, so scary, I I can't stand it anymore, I really can't stand it anymore. I'll give you as much spiritual spring water as you want, don't lock me up, please! I'm useful, I'm very useful. Without me, Kangxi could only live to sixty-nine, six. He will die at nineteen. I can make him live until one hundred and two. Really, I am really useful..."

The man in black's expression changed drastically, and his cold and sharp eyes almost pierced her!

"Presumptuous! How dare you curse the emperor?! I think you haven't been punished enough!" The man in black closed the small window and prepared to leave.

Concubine De was frightened and banged the iron door hard, "No! I didn't curse, everything I said is true. He can only live to sixty-nine, but I have spiritual spring water, I will make him live a long life. I It's useful, let me out, let me out! I'm going crazy. If I'm crazy, I won't remember the spiritual spring water. No one can get the spiritual spring water from my body, and then the emperor won't live long! I can be locked up in an ordinary cell, please don’t lock me up here!”

The man in black did not dare to despise every word spoken by this mysterious woman. When he gave ten jars of spiritual spring water to Kangxi, he hurriedly reported the matter. Kangxi was furious and got angry for a while, but after calming down, he found that there were many doubts. Why did Concubine De say she was sixty-nine? He is forty-two years old this year. If Concubine De wants to use the spiritual spring to extend his life to get his attention, wouldn't it be better for him to die in his forties? Why do you say he will die more than 20 years later? Thinking about it, sixty-nine is indeed likely to be his life span. After all, he has worked hard for many years and fought on the battlefield, so his body will be somewhat damaged.

So how did Concubine De know his lifespan? Is it possible to be as capable of calculating as a monk or a Taoist priest? Thinking of Concubine De's spiritual spring water, it seems that it is not too unusual for her to be able to pinch and calculate. And why did Concubine De want to harm Yinzhen? He investigated many times and found out that Yinzhen was really her biological son. Since she had such extraordinary abilities, wouldn't it be better to win over her two sons and two daughters? What would Yinzhen do if he took the risk? Could it be that she figured out that Yinzhen would be a hindrance to her?

Kangxi paced slowly in front of the imperial case, thought for a long time, and ordered the men in black to interrogate De Fei again. No matter what method he used, he must know what De Concubine had figured out, especially about Yinzhen and Suo'etu. He felt that Concubine De would cooperate with Suo'etu, maybe because Suo'etu would be more powerful. This must be clarified.

Concubine De didn't know that Kangxi regarded her as a goddess. When she found the man in black opening the small window, she immediately jumped over happily, "Does the emperor believe me? Are you going to let me out?"

The man in black said coldly: "Besides the Emperor's sixty-nine years of life, what else do you know?"

Concubine De suppressed her eagerness to collapse and quickly shook her head, "No, I don't know. I only know his life span."

However, the situation that was driving her crazy made her unable to hide it. The man in black knew that she was hiding a lot just by looking at her eyes and expressions. The man in black didn't waste any time, he opened a few bags, threw them in and closed the small window.

"No! Don't go! Let me out!" Concubine De knocked on the door in shock. Suddenly she felt something touched her ankle. She fell to the ground in fright. She quickly backed away, but her hands suddenly touched a lot of things running around. Things, and cold and slippery things.

"Ah - ah, help -" Concubine De jumped up and rushed to the iron door, banging the door wildly and screaming. She felt a lot of snakes, a lot of rats, and she didn't know what else, but in the dark room, she only felt endless fear.

"Help! Let me out! Let me out!" Something crawled up her prison clothes. She hurriedly shook it off, turned around and ran, but she stepped on something and fell onto many living things!

"Ah - no! Get away!" She screamed and got up, holding her head and running away. The small space made her bump into walls everywhere, and those things seemed to be everywhere. The hair on her body stood up, her scalp was numb, she was dizzy, her ears were ringing, and her prison clothes were soaked with cold sweat!

She threw herself against the iron door again, crying and screaming, "Let me out! I say! I will say anything! Help me——"

The author has something to say: Why should I write this kind of thing? As I was thinking about the scene and writing it, it was me who felt my scalp go numb! ! !

No, I have to slow down.../(tot)/~~
