Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty

Close to the royal power!

After thinking about it, Chen Xiuming understood that the empress dowager was a concubine and not a concubine when she first entered the palace, so even if she became the empress dowager and had a red phoenix, she was not the highest-level golden phoenix!

Chen Xiuming, who has figured it out, really wants to know what is Yongzheng's luck now, and now that Kangxi has not entered the final stage, so his luck is still a golden dragon, so is Prince Yong a golden dragon or something else?

Chen Xiuming was still thinking about this question until she had dinner with the Queen Mother and went back to the side hall, but she put it down after thinking about it for a long time, because Su Momo and Liu Momo counted the things in the purse they had received.

When Chen Xiuming went to see it, he saw that several small boxes were full, and the gifts from these Fujin wives were not the loose silver or small pieces of gold that were usually given to court ladies and eunuchs.

Chen Xiuming's box is full of jade carvings such as fish or Ruyi. Besides, there are also some finely struck silver plum blossoms. What's rare is that there is also a purse containing pearls.

Naturally, this pearl is not a defective product, dozens of longan-sized pearls are round and shiny, and there is also a pink pearl in the shape of a water drop, which is very suitable for embedding on a hairpin or a phoenix crown.

This bag of pearls is really a good gift, probably some adult with a little knowledge of the inside story asked his wife to choose carefully, otherwise who would have nothing to do to give such an excellent bag of pearls without letting others know.

The Empress Dowager on the first day of the lunar new year not only let Chen Xiuming show her face, but also gave Chen Xiuming a lot of good things. At the end of the new year, no one had time to care about the extra people like Chen Xiuming.

After the Lantern Festival passed, the Queen Mother did not take Chen Xiuming out, and also avoided those concubines in the harem who had nothing to do and could not look at colors to cause trouble for Chen Xiuming.

Just like that, Chen Xiuming stayed in the harem until July.During this period, Chen Zhongchu's wife handed over a sign to the palace once, and the Queen Mother also saw her. The young Mrs. Chen went into the palace and stayed for an hour, met and chatted with Chen Xiuming for a while, and then left the palace.

Chen Xiuming has also been loved by the queen mother for more than half a year, which is reflected in the fact that the queen mother always shows off the embroidery piece Chen Xiuming gave her to others, so that others know how much Chen Xiuming loves the queen mother.

Chen Xiuming saw that the queen mother liked the exquisite objects, and later embroidered a lot of handkerchiefs and the like for the queen mother. The queen mother was very happy to see each other and always said that Chen Xiuming didn't cherish her body, Chen Xiuming Every time Ming heard the queen mother say this, she just smiled and passed.

On March [-]th, the queen mother mentioned Kangxi's birthday. Chen Xiuming, who didn't pay attention to it, was stunned. She never took the initiative to inquire about Kangxi in order not to expose her petty thoughts. Now the queen mother mentioned it. It was because Chen Xiuming hadn't prepared at all. In the three days before Kangxi's birthday, Chen Xiuming finally made the gift he was going to give.

Chen Xiuming went to greet the Queen Mother on Kangxi's birthday, handed a small jar to the Queen Mother and went back, and took the jar back when Kangxi came to greet the Queen Mother.

When Li Dequan opened the jar, there were two layers. When he opened the second layer, he felt a strange fragrance rushing to his face. The jar was filled with honey made from peach blossoms. Kangxi, who had an uncomfortable throat, immediately asked Li Dequan to press the two A cup of tea was brewed from the stick in the middle of the jar.

Kangxi drank the tea with the honey of two peach blossoms and immediately felt a lot more comfortable in his throat. When he went to pay his respects to the Queen Mother again, he also praised Chen Xiuming for being considerate and considerate.

The queen mother also heard Li Dequan talk about the things Chen Xiuming sent, and she also felt that Chen Xiuming was considerate and considerate. Kangxi came to ask the queen mother to calm her throat a few times before. It's just that it hasn't gotten better after many days.

When Kangxi came to pay her respects, the queen mother asked Chen Xiuming to come to the main hall many times and left Chen Xiuming for dinner, creating opportunities for Kangxi and Chen Xiuming to get along.

It didn't damage Chen Xiuming's reputation and let the concubines in the harem understand that Chen Xiuming should enter the palace, but because of the attitude of the queen mother and Kangxi towards Chen Xiuming, no one attacked Chen Xiuming.

Firstly, the high-ranking concubines didn't care, and secondly, the low-ranking concubines didn't have the means or the courage, so Chen Xiuming's life was considered relaxed and leisurely.

Either drinking tea with the Queen Mother, chanting scriptures and chatting, or drinking tea and chatting with Kangxi with the Queen Mother, and going to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the flowers from time to time. If it is not necessary to drink bitter medicine every few days, it will be really happy ...

"Girl, Aunt Ruofang is here to send a message that the Empress Dowager wants to take you to the Royal Garden to see the newly entered palace." Aunt Ruofang's words made Chen Xiuming puzzled, why did she go to the Imperial Garden to see the beautiful girl? These show girls just came to the palace yesterday, is the queen mother going to see it?

It's also fortunate that Chen Xiuming is wearing flag clothes these days, otherwise she would have to freshen up and dress up again. Chen Xiuming just wore a light blue flag dress and was supported by Madam Su and followed Aunt Fangruo to the main hall .

"Your servant greets the empress dowager, and the empress dowager is blessed and safe." Chen Xiuming squatted down and saluted the empress dowager before getting up.

"Didn't I tell you that you don't need to salute, why are you so disobedient? It seems that the emperor will issue you an imperial decree someday." The queen mother shook her head and said.

"Empress Dowager, you are cheating on your courtiers again. Didn't you mean to go to the Imperial Garden? If you don't go for a while, the sun will be too poisonous." Chen Xiuming saw that it was not too early, if the sun was hot for a while Land, whether it is a weak girl waiting in the imperial garden or an elderly queen mother, accidents are prone to accidents.

"Okay, let's go, follow Ai's family to see the spring scenery in the imperial garden." The queen mother was also joking, there is no spring scenery in the imperial garden now, except for the summer flowers, there are only the beautiful girls from the new palace.Aren't the beautiful girls who are less than twenty-eight just as delicate and charming as flowers in spring, but people don't know the world?

The Empress Dowager and Chen Xiuming sat on the shoulders and went to the Imperial Garden. The Shoukang Palace and the Imperial Garden are also a little distance away. Maybe it's because the sun is not bad, maybe it's because there is a canopy along the way, but I don't feel the heat.

When you walk to a corner, you can see beautiful girls in various clothes standing in twos and threes in the shade through the gaps between the branches and leaves of the trees.

Before the empress dowager arrived, there were eunuchs announcing it in front, so after the empress dowager's shoulders fell outside the pavilion, I saw that the ladies had already stood up according to their family backgrounds and greeted in unison, "My servants greet the empress dowager." , the Empress Dowager is blessed and safe."

The Empress Dowager was supported by Aunt Fang Ruo into the gazebo and sat down before calling out, "Get up, Aijia also saw that the flowers in the imperial garden looked good, so I called you all to have a look.

"Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your concern." All the beautiful women have been trained in etiquette, so they can all answer the empress dowager's words in unison.

"My dear masters." Naturally, Chen Xiuming couldn't just sit down like the queen mother, and gave a half salute after all the beautiful girls got up.

Chen Xiuming's status is not low, if not because of their status as beautiful women, Chen Xiuming can ignore them directly, and even greet them with a half-courtesy "Miss Chen".

And when faced with Chen Xiuming, who had been reminded by her parents a long time ago, who was favored by the queen mother, all the beautiful girls returned the gift, saying, "Miss Chen is too polite."

The Empress Dowager’s visit this time is not simply to invite the beautiful girls to enjoy the flowers and view. Kangxi has already explained that none of the beautiful girls will enter the palace this time. These beautiful girls are only for elder brothers or clan relatives, and some are for I gave flowers and returned home to marry myself.

So the Empress Dowager is just here to see the character and appearance of these beautiful women, so that she can have a better understanding before going to the palace with Kangxi and other concubines.

The Empress Dowager sat for a while and ordered a few people to ask questions, and then took everyone to visit the Imperial Garden. At this time, there were no other people in the Imperial Garden except the eunuch who was sweeping and tending the flowers and plants.

After the concubines in the various palaces knew that the Queen Mother had told all the beautiful women to go to the Royal Garden, they asked their own people in the palace not to go to the Royal Garden so as not to disturb the Queen Mother.

Chen Xiuming has been following the queen mother for half a step. At first, the girls were very nervous and cautious. The chatting and amusing between the queen mother and Chen Xiuming made the girls relax a little, and they were also comfortable when the queen mother asked questions. He took up the conversation and left.

Not long after the queen mother left, she saw that the sun was high, and the queen mother herself was a little tired, so she asked Fanghua to send all the beautiful girls back to Ganxi Fourth Institute while it was not too hot.

After returning to the Shoukang Palace, the Empress Dowager did not keep Chen Xiuming, she was prone to sleepiness in this summer and Chen Xiuming's body was not in good health, it took a lot of effort to ease the atmosphere after walking for so long.

When Kangxi came to pay her respects after dinner, the queen mother chatted with Kangxi about Chen Xiuming's performance today, "What does the emperor think?"

"Even though Mrs. Chen is frail and sickly, her knowledge and what she should learn are not far behind. Don't worry, Empress Madam, my servant knows how to behave." Kangxi replied while sipping tea.

Kangxi also knew what the Queen Mother was worried about. He was always afraid that he would treat Chen Xiuming poorly. It was rare for Chen Xiuming to be favored by the Queen Mother. He was also quite satisfied with Chen Xiuming. presentable.

The queen mother is too worried. Is there anything in this palace that Kangxi doesn't know? Moreover, Kangxi has also seriously investigated Chen Xiuming, and knows that Chen Xiuming is not as sick as her body. Compete.

She has all the femininity and character that ordinary women should know, and they are far beyond ordinary people. She also likes poetry, books and history books that ordinary Han women can't read.

Chen Xiuming never concealed his preferences in the palace, so Kangxi also understood that Chen Xiuming was an open-minded man with a long-term vision and knowledge.

To put it in a hypothetical way, even if Chen Xiuming does not enter the palace as a concubine, even if she is a daughter of the Han family based on her family background and her own ability, some clans and important officials are willing to ask her to marry her as the first wife to take charge of the family.

The Empress Dowager met Xiu Nv in the Royal Garden, and the empresses of the palaces also began to summon Xiu Nv, and because it was hot now, the Empress Dowager let Chen Xiuming stay in the side hall.
