Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty

Although the Empress Dowager asked Chen Xiuming to stay in the side hall, she didn't stop Chen Xiuming from going anywhere as if she didn't restrain her feet, and occasionally she asked Chen Xiuming to sit in the main hall.

It's been two months since she was idle, and Chen Xiuming couldn't figure out how the queen mother and Kangxi arranged for her. It stands to reason that she should also be the show girl of this year, but she stayed here under the order of the queen mother. Shoukang Palace, if this is not a draft, then it can only be directly canonized into the palace, which is not a few times.The one who was directly canonized into the palace was only a few years before Kangxi's accession to the throne. He was still young and had not yet been in charge of the government, and when he needed to win over courtiers and Mongolia, he was canonized after the Yuan Dynasty and several young Mongolian concubines.

No matter how Chen Xiuming guessed, she was still not sure, but after thinking about it for a few days, she let it go. What was supposed to come would always come.But what Chen Xiuming didn't expect was that Kangxi didn't stay in the palace after the final selection of Xiunv in September, including several Han girls who were extremely good-looking but not very well-born.Didn't Kangxi favor the Han family daughters with low family background and good looks at the end of the period as stated in the book?

What made Chen Xiuming even more unexpected was that after the selection of Xiunv Palace, the queen mother actually summoned Chen Xiuming, and after talking with her, ordered someone to send Chen Xiuming out of the palace and back to Chen Bochu's mansion.

Chen Xiuming was already sitting on the sedan chair and was still thinking about what the queen mother said when she summoned her.

"You are a good boy. Go back and have a good rest for two days to talk to your elder brother and sister-in-law. When you come in a few days, you can talk to Ai's family about the interesting things at home. Aunt Su and Fanghua will go back with you. To save you from getting used to it when you go home, just bring them with you when you return to the palace."

It's not right to go back to play. If you really want to play, why did it take her half a year to go back?

Chen Xiuming thought about it all the way but couldn't figure it out, and she came back to her senses when Mammy Liu said it.At this time, Chen Bochu hadn't come back yet, and only the housekeeper and his servants were waiting outside the door.

"The servant waits to see the eldest lady." The housekeeper Zhou in Chen Bochu's mansion led a group of servants to greet Chen Xiuming who had not left the sedan chair, and behaved in a humble and respectful manner.

"Get up." Chen Xiuming said softly while sitting in the sedan chair.Grandma Liu, who was standing outside the sedan chair, gave Steward Zhou a purse.

"Thank you, Miss." Steward Zhou led the eunuch carrying the sedan chair in through the main entrance.

After entering the door, Steward Zhou dispatched the other servants, and led Chen Xiuming and his party who came out of the palace alone through the corridor next to the outer courtyard and into the inner courtyard, but after a while they arrived at Mrs. Chen's courtyard.

"Miss, please get off the sedan chair." After Housekeeper Zhou reminded her to get off the sedan chair, Nanny Liu walked to the sedan chair whose curtain had been drawn up, and helped Chen Xiuming get off the sedan chair.

"I've met the eldest lady." The two little maids outside the door had met Chen Xiuming, and after saluting, they led Chen Xiuming into the house.

After Chen Xiuming entered, Steward Zhou greeted the eunuchs who carried the sedan chairs to the room in the outer courtyard, and brought fruit refreshments to entertain them.

Nanny Liu helped Chen Xiuming into the house, and saw Mrs. Chen who heard the movement outside the house, pulled Chen to stand up and looked at the door.

"It can be regarded as coming back, come and have a rest." When Mrs. Chen saw Chen Xiuming, she pulled Chen Xiuming and pressed him to the chair, without giving Chen Xiuming a chance to salute.

"Side greetings to aunt." Chen Fang was very naughty, but he respected Chen Xiuming since he was a child, even though he didn't have much time to see Chen Xiuming.

"Sidepan has grown up now, even taller than me." Chen Xiuming stroked Chen's head and smiled slightly.

"He, besides eating, drinking, and playing all day long, it's difficult to grow taller. Don't praise him for this, or he will go all out to lift the roof of the house when he is proud."

Although Mrs. Chen loves Chen Fangpan, most of them also dislike him very much.Who made Chen Fangan so naughty and troublesome.

"This is..." Mrs. Chen chatted with Chen Xiuming and then changed the topic to the unfamiliar Madam Su.

"The maidservant is Madam Su who was ordered by the Empress Dowager to serve the girl. The maidservant has been in the palace for many years, and this time it is only because of the honor of the lady that she can see the scenery outside the palace." Madam Su bent her knees.Madam Su came out of the Empress Dowager's palace. Although she is just a nanny, there is no need to please Mrs. Chen too much. After all, she is serving Chen Xiuming and she will go back to the palace in a few days.

"Thanks to Madam Su for taking care of me these days, I can be fine."

"You're very polite, ma'am, thank you for taking good care of my little sister." After being reminded by Chen Xiuming, Mrs. Chen naturally understood that Madam Su had helped Chen Xiuming a lot, so her tone was more Kind of close.

"Mrs. Chen is out of touch. This is a servant's job."

After the meeting, they chatted for a few words, Mrs. Chen stopped talking when she saw Chen Xiuming's tired face, and asked the close-fitting Lufu to take Chen Xiuming to the place that she had prepared for Chen Xiuming a long time ago. attic.He also specifically asked Chen Xiuming to have a good rest today, and to have dinner with Chen Zhongchu tomorrow for dinner.

"These things in the yard were taught by the madam before the adults. The young lady will use them first. If they are not useful or look uncomfortable, they will be sent back to the madam. The madam will sell people directly. Don't bother the lady. If the lady wants to order something directly, someone will do it herself."

Lu Fu said this to Chen Xiuming, but it was more of a warning to the maids in the yard, letting them understand that Chen Xiuming is the one who can determine their future fate, and Chen Xiuming is their real master.

"Okay." Chen Xiuming was also tired and stopped talking after saying a word.

Lufu knew that Chen Xiuming was aware of it, and she left after saluting and didn't say much else. There are two nuns in this courtyard, so she is not afraid of improper arrangements.

Sure enough, after Lufu left, Mammy Liu ordered someone to fetch water to wipe Chen Xiuming's face, while Mammy Su helped Chen Xiuming to go behind the screen, and after wiping her face, she took off her hair ornament and changed it I took off my clothes and went to sleep.

After serving Chen Xiuming to sleep, the two nuns also went out of the room to lecture.

"I've seen you." There were no. 30 people in the yard, including maids and wives. After Chen Xiuming said only one word, I felt a little uneasy, worried that this master would be difficult to serve. Seeing the two mothers Come out and salute together.

"Okay, let's not say much. The young lady is not healthy and eats very carefully. I will make a list in a while, and I will cook according to the meals on the list. As for the people who serve the young lady, we haven't seen yours clearly. Our two wives are the ones to take care of you. I won’t say anything else, just leave the four thoughtful ones to walk in front of the young lady, and the rest of you can find something to do.” Su Momo is higher than Liu Momo Some, the lecture is that Mother Su is here.

It took a long time to go back to the mansion this time. I had breakfast in the palace and waited for Kangxi to come to Shoukang Palace. Looking out of the small kitchen, Madam Su brought four thoughtful maids to pack the clothes, jewelry and other supplies brought out from the palace for Chen Xiuming.

When Chen Xiuming woke up, the two nuns had already arranged everything and waited for Chen Xiuming to get up and deliver dinner.The dinner was not as exquisite and delicious as the ones in the palace, but it was also very suitable for Chen Xiuming's appetite. Perhaps because he was in a better mood after leaving the palace, Chen Xiuming used half a bowl of soup more than usual.

Seeing that Chen Xiuming was satisfied with the meal, the two nuns were relieved.Waiting on Chen Xiuming for a while, reading a book and drinking health-care tea.

This health-preserving tea is made by Doctor Wang after reading ancient books and combining Chen Xiuming's body and medicinal diet. Drinking it after fatigue can nourish blood and nourish Qi. Chen Xiuming drank it a few times during this period The effect is also good.

When it was time to rest, Mother Su and Mother Liu took Chen Xiuming to take a bath, and then took out a jar of fragrant ointment from a small box. This ointment was made to remove the cold air in Chen Xiuming's body.Applying massage on the waist, abdomen and navel after bathing can play a slight role in dispelling the cold in Chen Xiuming's body.

After all this action, it's not too late, Mammy Su and all the maidservants retreated, only Mammy Liu rested on the small bed in the outer room so that she could go in and serve Chen Xiuming when she needed someone at night.

On the second day, Chen Xiuming got up earlier, and had breakfast after Mammy Liu brought someone to wash and wash.

Chen Xiuming, who had nothing to do, went for a walk in the corridor outside the house, and a fresh scent of sweet-scented osmanthus lingered in her nose, screaming joy.Chen Xiuming walked out of the veranda, and saw a very old osmanthus tree planted in the corner of the backyard, among the luxuriant leaves, there were some small and dazzling osmanthus flowers the size of rice grains that were as small as stars.

"This sweet-scented osmanthus is very good. Miss, would you like sweet-scented osmanthus cake?" said Madam Su, who had almost figured out Chen Xiuming's temperament.

"Yes, I thought about it. The sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by my mother is delicious. It's soft, delicious and fragrant."

Chen Xiuming was also greedy when she was a child, even though she knew she was not healthy, she always ate the pastry that Uncle Chen Fu secretly gave her, Chen Xiuming ate it for a long time without being discovered.

It was only once that Uncle Chen Fu ate a few pieces of glutinous rice cakes for Chen Xiuming, which caused Chen Xiuming to be unable to eat at meal time. Mrs. Chen was so anxious that Uncle Chen told what he had done, and Uncle Chen Fu was fined to kneel because of this. For most of the night, Mrs. Chen was afraid that Uncle Chen Fu would accidentally feed the young Chen Xiuming something inedible that would damage Chen Xiuming's body, so she made osmanthus cake with osmanthus. Since then, Chen Xiuming has never eaten what Uncle Chen Fu secretly gave. pastry.

Chen Xiuming also thought it was very funny when he thought of his few childish behaviors in the past.

After laughing, Chen Xiuming reached out and folded a sprig of sweet-scented osmanthus and pinned it on her hair. The beige golden osmanthus exuded a fragrance in her hair, which made Chen Xiuming feel very at ease.

After making the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, Chen Xiuming sent most of it to Mrs. Chen.Because there were not many sweet-scented osmanthus at this time, there were only two plates of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes. Chen Xiuming had a small appetite and kept half a plate, so it was unlikely that he could finish it, so he gave some to Su Momo and Liu Momo.

When it was time for dinner, Mrs. Chen sent someone over to invite Chen Xiuming to have dinner.
