The Palm Jade of the Red Chamber
Chapter 40
Kangxi slept in Changchun Palace for seven days in a row. It can be said that Kangxi accompanied Daiyu for seven days, and went to Yanxi Palace on the eighth day, and then Chengqian Palace.
Although the seven days of honor and favor were different from Concubine Tong's when she first entered the palace, it was unmatched by other concubines in the palace.
Daiyu gradually got used to the life in the harem, but she couldn't help but think of her father and younger brother at home, and felt sad again. She was afraid that if she left, God would not take good care of herself.
"Don't worry, your father and Tianyou are both healthy." Xiaobai comforted Daiyu.

The upgrade of the plane mall itself is not easy. What Daiyu puts up this time is still calligraphy and painting, and she has nothing else to sell. Most of her warehouse is jade medicinal materials and calligraphy and painting. Daiyu didn't understand how to increase the health and agility of these two points. As for the English, one of the books I read recently was in English, and Daiyu was very interested.
Looking at the main quests and side quests, Daiyu squinted her eyes and looked at her plane coins. Daiyu spent a lot of money over the years, and the most she spent should be for Xiaobai to buy food. Daiyu doesn't care too much. Anyway, Xiaobai has always been taking care of the plane mall, and she doesn't have anything in particular she wants to buy. Besides, she is raising Xiaobai now, and cats are all pets.
"Yu'er, the favorability will not drop after reaching eighty~ You have to work hard." Xiaobai said to Daiyu while holding the plane mall.
"Really?" Daiyu replied indifferently, looking at the map of England in her hand. It was a gift from Linzhou. There are not only maps, but also explanations of other regions, etc. It's just a pity that these I can't read the words.
"Xiaobai, help me see if there are any books with this kind of language, it seems very interesting." Daiyu closed the book, got up and changed another one, this time it was about the customs of the Mongolian grassland.
The vastness of the prairie is beyond Daiyu's imagination. Every time the two queen mothers talk about Horqin, they always look nostalgic. They talk about the vastness of the prairie, the boldness of riding a horse, and the bonfire celebration. Jade has never seen it.
Daiyu was very yearning for the prairie that the two empress dowagers talked about, but unfortunately she didn't have the chance to see it.
The weather in March is slowly warming up. Daiyu will go to greet the two empress dowagers every day, and then talk with Niu Colu in Yanxi Palace, play chess or something, and return to Changchun Palace, just in the courtyard Make flowers in the garden, or write and read in the study, or play the piano. If the emperor comes, occasionally he will go into the small kitchen to stew medicinal food to nourish the emperor.
The affairs of the government seemed to be very busy, Daiyu never asked, at most she asked about Lin Hai's recent situation, and then told Kangxi about the topic of chatting with the two empress dowagers, the small life in the palace was peaceful and regular.
On the day of March 23, Ma Jia cried out in pain for a long time, and gave birth to a little elder brother safely. Because Daiyu was still young, she did not wait for Ma Jia to give birth, but waited for Ma Jia. When the family was born, Lulu reported to Daiyu: "The concubine gave birth to an elder brother, and the empress dowager was very happy, but the elder brother was just born, and the imperial doctor said that his body was soft and he had to take good care of him for a while, so the empress dowager let him The concubine takes good care of elder brother."
"Concubine Shu is very happy to think about it." Daiyu smiled, and the scissors in her hand gently cut off the excess flower bones on the peach blossom branches.
"My maidservant heard that Madam Tong's expression was very ugly at the time." Lu Lu laughed.
Daiyu put down the scissors, and Thrush wiped Daiyu's hands with a handkerchief. Daiyu glanced at Lulu and said, "Go to the warehouse and get some things to send over. Don't send things that make people have a chance to do something."
"Yes, ma'am." Lu Lu led the order to find Bai Ling to open the warehouse to pick things out, and Thrush arranged the vase that Daiyu had inserted, and then followed behind Daiyu.
Daiyu sat on the couch, leaned against the back of the chair, closed her eyes and meditated.
Ma Jia gave birth to an elder brother. These are Kangxi's only three children. The two concubines have been with Kangxi for many years. In addition, both of them have children. As I mentioned earlier, both Concubine Tong and Concubine Niu have their eyes on the position of the middle palace, and the one who will eventually become the queen will definitely be Clan Niu Colu. With Xiao Zhuang around, Concubine Tong should not think about that position, but with Kangxi's opponents Her friendship, I am afraid that she will not stay in the concubine for too long.
Concubine Tong wanted to adopt Ma Jia's child in order to advance to the throne, but it was a pity that this opportunity was disrupted by Xiaozhuang, and she had to think of other ways next.
Daiyu opened her eyes, and said to Huamei: "The weather is fine today, help Ben Gong bring the rattan chair to the yard, Ben Gong wants to sit in the yard."
The sunset has already dyed the sky red, and the cool wind is the most comfortable on the face. Thrush and Bauhinia immediately moved the wicker chairs under the banyan tree in the yard, and prepared a coffee table with freshly made dishes in the kitchen. glutinous rice cake,
Bauhinia even brought a few books from the study. Daiyu likes to sit in the yard like this every evening or night, looking at the sky, emptying her mind, not thinking about anything, just staring at the sky in a daze.
When Kangxi came, Daiyu was in a daze. Kangxi didn't let anyone tell her, and quietly walked behind Daiyu. He wanted to scare her, but he saw that Daiyu was covered with a small blanket, and his hands were folded. On the lower abdomen, that delicate little face looked at the sky expressionlessly, with inexplicable respect in his eyes.
Kangxi was taken aback, it was the first time he saw Daiyu in such a state, he slowly squatted beside Daiyu, stretched out his hand to hold Daiyu's hand, and said with a smile: "What is Yu'er thinking?"
Daiyu's eyes blinked, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised. This natural movement made Kangxi frown. Daiyu turned her head to look at Kangxi and smiled: "Why is the emperor here?"
"I went to see Ma Jia's child just now. I was going back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but I remembered that I have been busy for the past few days and I will not come to Changchun Palace, so I want to come and see you." Kangxi got up and sat on the side of the rattan chair.
"How is the child? The Empress Dowager said that it is not appropriate for Yu'er to see the mother giving birth now, so she will not let Yu'er go." Daiyu asked.
"The little one hasn't bloomed yet, it's ugly, wait until it grows, and you can go and see it." Kangxi smiled and flicked Daiyu's forehead, and seeing her staring, he let her go , said, "I will accompany you to eat dinner later. I heard from Bailing that your appetite has not been very good recently."
Daiyu snorted and said in dissatisfaction: "Bailing just loves to talk nonsense with you, but recently Nanny Gui made peach blossom cakes, and the emperor knows that Yu'er loves these sweets. If you eat too many sweets, you will use less for dinner. .”
"Then I have to tell Nanny Gui not to make pastries anymore, so that you can have a good meal."
"Yu'er has a good meal." Daiyu grabbed Kangxi's hand. Kangxi's palm was wide, with clear palm lines and slender fingers. Daiyu thought it was interesting, so she held it in her hand and played with it. Kangxi looked at Daiyu with a smile .
Huamei had already asked Zijing to inform the kitchen to prepare dinner, and Daiyu was lying on the wicker chair, chatting and laughing with Kangxi.
"Emperor Niang said that she wanted to listen to the opera. I have already asked the theater troupe to prepare a few performances, and I also asked the jugglers to prepare together. When the time comes, the Empress Niang will be lively. What would Yu'er want to see?"
"The empress dowager said, ask the concubine sister to take the sisters to see it together. I haven't seen the juggler Yu'er yet, and it's very interesting to hear about it."
"It's very interesting, but it's all little tricks. If you like it, you can let them play it for you often."
"That's not necessary. After seeing too many interesting things, it becomes boring."
"Your father said that you like snacks outside the palace. I will bring you what you want to eat next time you go out of the palace."
"Why did father tell you this~" Daiyu chuckled, "Nurse Gui always said that the outside is not clean, and she dotes on me, so she asked someone to come and teach her how to do it. Now she is doing better than the outside. The food is delicious, the emperor can try it if he has a chance."
"Okay, let me try to see what flavors you like." Kangxi pointed at Daiyu's nose and smiled.
Nanny Gui and Xueyan quickly prepared dinner, because Daiyu loves home cooking, so the dishes in Changchun Palace are very common and most of them are vegetarian.
Kangxi was very satisfied with the meals in Changchun Palace. Dining in Changchun Palace was the most comfortable. Kangxi also liked the herbal soup cooked by Daiyu.
After dinner, Kangxi stayed with Daiyu in the Changchun Palace for a while, and then returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to deal with government affairs. Before leaving, he saw the sewing box on the small table on the couch, and said to Daiyu: "Yuer You haven’t made me a purse yet, why don’t you make me one.”
There was doubt in Daiyu's eyes, but the emperor said so, she couldn't refuse, and replied: "Yu'er is afraid of doing it, the emperor will despise it."
"No, I like what Yu'er did." Leaning down lightly, he placed a gentle kiss on Daiyu's forehead, and Kangxi left with a smile.
Daiyu touched her forehead, the place where Kangxi kissed was a little hot, her little face was also rosy, facing the smiling eyes of Bailing and others, Daiyu snorted and said, "Go get the fabric from the storeroom. Come, I want to choose a color for the emperor to make a purse."
"Yes, ma'am." Bai Ling smiled and went on.
Sitting on the couch, Daiyu touched her forehead again, feeling very strange in her heart.
"I just got kissed, what's so strange!" Xiao Bai's voice suddenly sounded.
"Xiaobai is a cat, how can he understand!" Daiyu said, but she didn't think about the kiss, and Bailing also brought Cymbidium and Shaoyao to send all the fabrics in the warehouse for Daiyu to choose.
Daiyu followed a few court ladies to choose colors for the emperor to make purses, and had no time to think about other things.
Although the seven days of honor and favor were different from Concubine Tong's when she first entered the palace, it was unmatched by other concubines in the palace.
Daiyu gradually got used to the life in the harem, but she couldn't help but think of her father and younger brother at home, and felt sad again. She was afraid that if she left, God would not take good care of herself.
"Don't worry, your father and Tianyou are both healthy." Xiaobai comforted Daiyu.
