Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Dynasty

Kangxi was in a good mood. Seeing that Concubine Wen's body was getting better gradually, and let Wang Changzai accompany him for a late meal, although the food was not as smooth as that of Qixiang Palace, but after talking to Wang Changzai, he was in a good mood. Also comfortable.Just when he returned to Qianqing Palace, he heard Li Dequan report Tong Concubine's discovery, and Kangxi's sleepiness disappeared for a while.

Yuqing Palace was built in the 18th year of Kangxi on the foundation site of Fengci Hall in the former dynasty. Because of the impact of earthquakes, the crown prince's flowering, etc., the servants who ordered them have come and gone several times. For several years, Kangxi and the crown prince were even more busy with the Junggar rebellion, so they handed over the internal and external affairs of Yuqing Palace to Ling Pu, the crown prince's grandpa, to take care of them. It was not until the crown princess married into Yuqing Palace that they handed over all the power.But she never expected that the nail bought by others was still buried in Yuqing Palace!

"Besides Yuqing Palace, where else have problems been found?" Kangxi asked in a cold voice.

Li Dequan shivered, secretly said that this is a thankless thing, and then bowed and replied: "Except for the Emperor's Qianqing Palace, the Empress Dowager's Ningshou Palace, and the Jingren Palace and Jingyang Palace where no one lives now. In addition, basically every palace has found people who are cheating, but it's hard to say who their master is. Concubine Tong said that this matter is very involved and involves a lot, so she dare not make up her own mind."

"Investigate!" Kangxi narrowed his eyes, "You can investigate the ones in Yuqing Palace yourself! Let Concubine Tong tell you all the names of the people you have found, and then tell her to keep her quiet. This matter has not been revealed for a day. She can't even speak a word to outsiders!"

"Hey, this servant is going to spread the message." Li Dequan hurriedly backed out, and when he straightened up again, layers of cold sweat were already oozing from his back.It's been a long time since I saw the emperor look so angry. If something serious is found out this time, the mastermind behind the scenes will definitely not be able to escape the emperor's severe punishment.Thinking of the consequences in the future, even a well-informed person like Li Dequan unconsciously shivered. After saying "Amitabha Buddha" in his heart, he hurried to Chengqian Palace to spread the word.

Kangxi sat in the quiet Qianqing Palace, closed his eyes, and sighed silently.Only when this happens again will he cast off the dignity of the emperor and sigh like an ordinary person.He is a son of heaven and a mortal, even if he has the power to kill life in the world, there will always be times when he is not satisfied. Whenever everything is quiet, he will always think of the time when Ren Xiao was by his side.But now, Renxiao and Xiaozhao are gone, and he doesn't even have anyone to talk to.

For some reason, the figure of the girl from Niu Hulu's family suddenly flashed in his mind, Kangxi opened his eyes, was silent for a while, and finally got up and went back to the bedroom.Wei Zhu, who was hidden in the shadows, seemed not to have heard Kangxi's sigh just now, and hastened to follow, quickly serving Kangxi to bed.

When working as an errand in the Qing Palace, the first thing you have to learn is to keep your mouth and ears tightly shut, and not let out a word that you shouldn't hear or say.Wei Zhu herself has been serving Kangxi since she was a child. Over the years, it is not uncommon to see eunuchs and maids who are serving in the Qianqing Palace disappear inexplicably, so she understands this reason better.

"Remind me tomorrow to go sit with the concubine." Kangxi ordered.

"Hey." Wei Zhu responded.

It seems that the imperial concubine is about to recover again.

On the auspicious day when the dragon raised its head on the second day of February, the Crown Princess Guerjia finally got her wish and took over the golden seal of the treasure book symbolizing the status of the Crown Princess and became the legitimate Crown Princess of the Qing Dynasty.An He's belly has been five months old, but she still witnessed the ceremony of the Crown Princess in Ningshou Palace.It is probably the first time in the history of the Qing Dynasty that the Empress Dowager personally presided over the canonization ceremony for the Crown Princess, but it was precisely because of this that everyone in the harem deeply understood the weight of the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess in the hearts of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.

"I just looked at Concubine Tong's appearance. Didn't the Emperor go to her place a lot recently? Why does he look so preoccupied?" Coming out of Ningshou Palace, An He, Concubine Yi and Concubine Rong went to the Imperial Garden for a walk walk.Concubine Yi picked a branch of wintersweet and played with it in her hand, while sniffing the bitter fragrance of wintersweet, she said, "No matter how you look at it, there is something wrong."

"Who knows what happened to her." Concubine Rong walked slowly, "Maybe she felt a little surprised by the sudden favor of the emperor. After all, her position in the palace is not too stable, probably because she is afraid Those women in the harem are going to eat her."

"No matter how sharp the mouth is, don't you all ask you to clean it up? Why should she worry about it?" An He put her hand on Jinxiu's arm, "You guys are quick this time. I have rectified the atmosphere in the harem, and my ears have been cleaned up a lot, no wonder the empress dowager also said that you have done well."

"Your ears are pure because of the emperor's words." Concubine Yi teased, "After all, the emperor loves you."

In the middle and late January, Kangxi began to visit Qixiang Palace frequently, as if the thing that left Anhe in the cold did not exist at all, and told Liugong not to disturb the noble concubine's rest with cumbersome things.Originally, An He got such words from Wei Zhu, but he didn't expect Kangxi to say it explicitly this time, and he also issued an order to deal with Concubine An.

Needless to say, Concubine An's status is complicated, but just as An He expected, it will not help even if Concubine An's grandmother's family is prominent. Take a step out of Chuxiu Palace.After this decree came down, the concubines who were not caught upright and who were still a little cautious were completely dumbfounded, and they never dared to make trouble again.This also made the women in the harem realize that it wasn't that the emperor didn't want to take care of it, it was just that he didn't have the spare time to cook before.Once the emperor Longyan was furious, no matter how prominent his family background was, he would not be able to save himself.Concubine An, no, she should be called Li Guiren now. Her fate is not so much her own fault, but more of Kangxi's intention of killing chickens and monkeys.

"Master." Feiqing followed An He's footsteps, saluted An He, Concubine Yi, and Concubine Rong before saying, "Eunuch Li came over just now and said that the emperor will accompany the master to have dinner, please go back first." get ready."

"Got it." An He nodded slightly.

"Concubine Rong and I need to continue to relax." Concubine Yi said before An He spoke, "The sedan chair is waiting at Jiang Xuexuan's place, hurry over, don't waste time."

"Then I'll go back first." An He nodded to the two of them, then turned around and left with the support of Feiqing and Jinxiu.

"Looking at the noble concubine's current state, who would have imagined that she was still ignored by the emperor a month ago." Concubine Rong said softly, "This person depends on his temperament. If we were treated coldly by the emperor for so many months, we would have to wait for him." I'm afraid I've already felt resentment in my heart. It's rare for a noble concubine to have such a bearing, so it's no wonder that the emperor changed his mind in the end."

"This is good fortune." Concubine Yi smiled, "Isn't it good for us to live our lives well now?" It would be a lie to say that you are not jealous, but just think about the fact that the imperial concubine has been favored all these years after entering the palace She is graceful, probably because her peaceful and quiet temperament suits the emperor's appetite.Concubine Yi is not a stupid woman, she can see through and understand clearly, as long as she gets along well with Concubine Gui, she will never be at a disadvantage.

Just as An He returned to Qixiang Palace, Kangxi's royal driver also came over.After saluting, someone made some hot tea for Kangxi. An He smiled and stepped forward to take off the cloak outside for him. Just as he was about to take a step behind and sit on the couch with Kangxi, Kangxi grabbed him by the hand. When he came to the side, Kangxi had already pressed him on the couch in astonishment.

"You look good today." Kangxi looked at it carefully before saying, "Hands are also warm."

"Just now I went out for a walk with Concubine Yi and Concubine Rong. I have been exercising for a while, so my face looks better." An He has been a little confused about the actions of the uncle Kangxi recently. It's fine for her to be indifferent and turn a blind eye, but after only maintaining it for two months, she broke the situation by herself, and came to her place every now and then, sitting here for a whole night, if it wasn't for An He not being able to serve her bed, she might have to stay at night Come down and sleep.Except for Concubine Tong, Kangxi hadn't summoned other concubines for more than half a month.Although the other people looked at her not to the point of eating her, the sour look gave her goosebumps.

Kangxi didn't know his contradictory psychology, but he had counted the harem over and over again, only Anhe could bring him a little peace.Not having to face the flattery and flattery of the concubines in the harem, not listening to their harsh words about trivial matters, drinking tea at the right temperature, and occasionally eating a meal, was a rare enjoyment for Kangxi.He must be an impeccable emperor on the outside, but now he just wants to be an ordinary man.

This is a luxury, but as long as a moment is enough.

"Your months are getting older, I asked Yinxuan and Yin'e to come back to accompany you often, and don't walk around, there are still restless factors outside." Kangxi reached out and touched Anhe's bulging belly, with a look on his face Rarely tender, "I will be born in five months."

"That's right," An He followed suit, "The imperial doctor said that this baby is well-raised, and it will definitely be born safely."

Thinking of the doctor Wang coming to report that the concubine's child is likely to be a princess, Kangxi's eyes softened three points.The child in the womb seemed to respond to his Ama's touch, and moved a little, but Kangxi felt a burst of surprise.It has been a long time since he felt such throbbing, the last time he felt the movement of the fetus was when Renxiao was pregnant with Baocheng.

"Has the emperor been frightened?" An He asked with a smile, "The imperial doctor said this is a normal thing, the emperor should not be surprised." Seeing Kangxi's stunned look, she also felt amused in her heart.

"It seems that our child is indeed very healthy." Kangxi's hand movements were much lighter, "This is very good."

"Your Majesty," Li Dequan walked in, and said after taking a look at Kangxi's face, "I have an urgent memorial for the Emperor to review." It was not what he wanted to destroy the peaceful atmosphere at this time, but this memorandum was rushed. When it was delivered, it was fresh and hot, and he couldn't do it unless he came back to report.

Kangxi withdrew his hand, drank the tea in the teacup and said: "I'm back, I'll see you again tomorrow."

"Respectfully send off the emperor." An He got up quickly, watched Kangxi leave, and then slowly sat back on the couch.No matter what the emperor thinks, if it comes, let it be.An He put his hand on his lower abdomen. At worst, all the sons of Niu Hulu's family will get idle jobs, which is better than being jealous by Kangxi all day long.
