Chapter 799: Not a good husband

After entering the Ciren Palace, the fifth princess and the fifth master bowed, and then retreated.
Regardless of the swelling and pain on his feet, Kangxi knelt directly in front of the Queen Mother's couch.
A pair of hands that had been tempered on the battlefield and covered with calluses, held the hand of the Queen Mother in his palm.
"Emperor Niang, my son has come to see you."
"The emperor..." The Queen Mother shook Kangxi back.
She can hear the sound and feel Kangxi's hand.
However, she could only lie on a silk pillow studded with a money python, unable to move.
Even if she wanted to turn her head and take a look at Kangxi, she had more than enough energy.
A wrinkled face, sallow and sallow.
Even wearing a warm hat can't cover the white silk on the sideburns.
The lips are dry, the same color as the face.
Kangxi's eyes were scarlet, and the palms of her hands trembled slightly: "Emperor mother, my son is here."
In addition to scarlet, there was a hint of joy in his eyes.
A few days ago, the queen mother was in a coma and unable to speak.
Today, she can call out his name and can speak.
The queen mother noticed Kangxi's trembling hand, and a smile pulled out from the corner of her mouth: "The Aijia is not afraid, what are you shaking? Even if the Aijia is gone, you are still the emperor of our Qing..."
"No..." Kangxi shook his head, "You haven't been ill before, and you will get better this time. Look, you can talk to me."
"Ai's illness...Ai's family is aware of it...this time, I'm afraid it won't work..."
Kangxi held his lips, trying to say something to comfort him.
But my throat was itchy, and I didn't interrupt the queen mother.
"The Ai family was not favored when they were young, and failed to spread the branches and leaves for the royal family, but the Ai family never regretted it." The Queen Mother's voice was weak and weak, and every word she said, she took a few breaths, "because... .. The Ai family has a son like you, who is even more filial than your own son, so there is no regret..."
Kangxi bit his back tooth socket and said with red eyes: "But I am not a good father."
In front of this aunt, the emperor, no matter how iron and blood in the past, finally talked about the helplessness in his heart.
His voice did not have the majesty of the past, but revealed the vicissitudes of life and old age.
The imperial education system of the Qing Dynasty was strict, and he could never let his sons idle and idle.
Wouldn't it make the world laugh, and it will be recorded in history.
Therefore, the elder brothers played Xiaodong and practiced 39 and Xia practiced dormant.
At that time, the rest system hadn't improved. They only took five days a year, and they only took one or two breaks a day, each time not exceeding a quarter of an hour.
The subjects studied are all textbooks compiled by advanced Confucianism and ancestors.
In addition to being fluent in Manchu, Mongolian, and Chinese, you also need to understand some Uyghur and Tibetan languages.
In recent years, a few foreign languages ​​have been added and taught by missionaries.
Learn to write, calligraphy, and archery on horseback, including swimming.
The purpose is to make them become people with all-round development of morality, intelligence, and body.
This is why the emperors of the Qing Dynasty were very diligent.
Because of the education they received from childhood, let them know that everything was hard-won.
But... this kind of education will result in all the elder brothers being better.
Then the problem is coming.
"Ah..." The Queen Mother sighed, "Most of everyone's talents and personalities are inherent in their bones. Sometimes...you can teach them to become talents, but you can't Teach them to be human..."
Kangxi: "The son is not a good husband either."
After the Yuan Dynasty, Heshe Lishi gave birth to the prince for him, but he fought at the border.
At that time, when he first came to power, there were turbulences and wars at the border.
I have already lost one of his own sons before, if he loses another one.
The world would say that God would not bless him, and the military situation would definitely be unstable.
Therefore, his first queen, for the sake of the war situation at the border and the stability of the Qing Dynasty, sacrificed.
And he didn't even look at her.
The second queen, Niu Colu, served him for many years and accompany him through the most difficult days.
But he had just sealed the queen, and she was gone the next year, and she had no good fortune.
Later, I found out that Niu Colu's body was not well.
However, in order not to affect him, she kept saying nothing.
Since then, he has considered whether he is overwhelming, and he intends not to follow up again.
Until later, she met Tong Jia. When she was the imperial concubine, she acted justly and treated people in a friendly manner. She won a lot of admiration from inside and outside the palace.
He also took care of the harem in an orderly manner, and raised a few elder brothers.
It's not that she couldn't give birth. She had given birth to a little princess before, but it was a pity that she died within a month.
At that time, he was not in the palace.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs regards the child as an ominous thing, and only wraps the child in a sheet and burns it out of the palace.
As a result, Tong Jia became depressed, and even though she finally got pregnant, she ran into dystocia.
This time, as a husband, he finally stayed with this woman and saved the adult.
It's a pity that the nine-month-old child is so gone, he is still an elder brother.
Since then, Tong Jia's has been sick.
For this woman, nothing else, he has feelings for her.
Even if it is not a queen, it is like a queen in his heart.
Until Tong Jia was really sick, he held Chongxi's mentality and named him a queen.
But the next day, she just left.
Throughout the ages, this is probably the only queen who has only been a day.
In the past, the world said... his fate was hard, he would defeat his father and his mother, but he never believed it.
Moreover, as long as someone said, he would kill that person.
Gradually, no one dared to make irresponsible remarks.
But at that moment, he began to doubt himself.
Since then, he secretly vowed in his heart that he will never stand in this life!
The queen mother heard the frustration in Kangxi's words, and she felt distressed in her heart.
"Your whole life is at least better than your imperial exam. Although he has made so many contributions to the Qing Dynasty, in the end, for a woman like Concubine Dong E, he not only shaved off his family, but also made him dying."
The Queen Mother took a few breaths and continued: "In the end, he was so depressed, only in his twenties, so he went like that... Before he died, he said that he would never again be in the next life. I wish to be born in an emperor’s house. At that time, only Concubine Dong E was in his heart, and he had forgotten his responsibilities as an emperor, so much so that he attracted verbal abuse from courtiers and the people."
Kangxi: "..."
"You must remember that you were born in an emperor's house and became an emperor. Naturally, you can't be like an ordinary man. As an emperor, your responsibilities cannot be expected. You must put the country first in everything, otherwise you will become a faint emperor!" Aggravate.
"Yes, mother emperor."
"Even if it is a bloody, a woman, you can't take the people of the world...This, you did it, and you did it well..."
Kangxi: "..."
"My son Xuan Ye..."
"Mother, son is here."
The sound of Xuan Ye called Kangxi's heart.
