[Comprehensive] Empress Variations
Chapter 31
Concubine Hui walked to the center of the pavilion, watched the maid Mu Qiu wipe the stone bench for her, and then sat down.However, the cold touch of the stone bench still made her frown slightly, and subconsciously glanced at Wei Chan.
If it wasn't for Wei Chan, she wouldn't have run out to visit the Royal Garden at this time.Compared with the summer, the scenery of the imperial garden is indeed different, but the coldness is really uncomfortable.
Concubine Hui saw that Wei Chan lowered her head slightly, she looked no different from other court ladies.Although she has a delicate face and such an unappealing personality, the way she can go is limited after all.
There was a glimmer of light in her eyes, and the corners of her lips curved into a bright and seductive arc.Looking at Wei Chan's gaze again, there was a sense of judgment, as if looking at a valuable item. "Your Majesty Wei, don't stand there. My palace asked you to come out and walk together, but I didn't want you to be my servant. If you want a servant to serve you, the servants of Yanxi Palace are more suitable than Mr. Wei. .”
"Yes." Xun Ying sat on the stone bench, but didn't dare to sit all the way.It's just that the body touched the edge of the stool, and even the hem of the clothes didn't completely cover the whole stool.
Concubine Hui looked at Wei Chan with a little more satisfaction when she saw this scene. "Your Majesty Wei, you and I understand very well how you came to be the noble person you are today. As for this person, you must have some self-knowledge. It's not something you can get with your status. You can't stretch your hand too long .”
Xun Ying paused for a moment, and her body seemed to be visibly stiff for a moment.Only then did he speak slowly, "The servant understands."
Concubine Hui was also quite satisfied with Wei Chan's answer. She thought that Wei Chan was not very threatening, but because of her special status, she could make the other two people in the palace very friendly after being well trained.Naturally, she was unwilling to let go of this opportunity, but before she started training, it was better for Wei Chan to recognize her identity.Lest she think about something that shouldn't belong to her.
"It's good to understand. If you follow my wishes, I will naturally benefit from you." Concubine Hui also knew that threats alone are not very effective.Giving a sweet date with a stick can not only maintain one's own status, but also prevent subordinates from being distracted.
Xun Ying raised her head slightly, opened her mouth to answer, but was interrupted by a loud voice.
"The emperor is here!" The eunuch's somewhat feminine voice was heard from afar.
Concubine Hui quickly stood up, squinted her eyes, and glanced at Wei Chan.Don't come early, don't come late, the emperor came to the Imperial Garden at this time, why?
If it was normal, Concubine Hui might still think it was a chance encounter.The problem is that the emperor has not been to the harem for a long time, and he rarely comes to the imperial garden.The previous times when I came to the harem, it seemed that I always went to the Yongshou Palace, but this time I came to the Imperial Garden when Wei Chan was here.
It was such a coincidence that Concubine Hui couldn't help but think about it.If the emperor came this time because of Wei Chan, then whether she was promoted because of the eighth elder brother or herself, then further investigation is needed.
Walking down from the pavilion, Concubine Hui led the servants behind her to salute the emperor respectfully. "See the emperor."
"Get up!" Kangxi waved his hand casually, and he walked straight into the pavilion without looking at anyone.
Concubine Hui got up with the others, and then walked into the pavilion.Facing the emperor's somewhat deep gaze, she couldn't help but slightly lower her head.If it was a few years ago, he could understand what the emperor was thinking, but in recent years, he felt that the emperor's mind was unfathomable.
"Your majesty also came to this imperial garden to see the scenery? Although it can't compare to the blooming flowers in summer, it still has a special flavor." Concubine Hui took two steps forward, glanced at the scenery around the pavilion, and broke the silence .
"Although the scenery is not bad, it's a bit colder today." Kangxi raised his head to meet Concubine Hui's gaze, "My concubine, don't be attached to the beautiful scenery, the most important thing is your body."
"The concubine understands." When Concubine Hui heard Kangxi's answer, the smile on her lips relaxed a little.
Only then did Kangxi glance at Wei Chan, still looking well-behaved.No matter how you look at it, Wei Chan seems to be a polite person. If you don't look into her eyes, you will definitely think that she is extremely afraid and can't stand on stage.In fact, it's just because this posture is more suitable for her current status.
'Words are like people' Similarly, paintings are like people.He has never seen Wei Chan's handwriting, but he has admired her words carved with embroidery.Even without the boldness of a man, you can still see the atmosphere that women rarely have.It's just that these people were all dazzled by Wei Chan's appearance, thinking that this appearance is what she should be like.
It's not that he hasn't heard the rumors in the palace for the past two days, and he also knows that Concubine Hui will definitely not sit still and confront Wei Chan directly.However, he didn't intervene, instead he watched Wei Chan walk into Yanxi Palace.
He knew everything that happened in Yanxi Palace clearly. In fact, nothing these high-ranking concubines did could escape his eyes.Naturally, he was very clear about Wei Chan's performance in the Palace of Yanxi Palace.
No matter how you look at Wei Chan's appearance, she seems to be submissive. I don't know if she really crossed her boundaries, she might look another way.
Kangxi felt more and more that Wei Chan was like a pet cat, and most of the time he looked lazy.If you tease and poke your head too much, you may show your claws.Although in his opinion, if Wei Chan really showed his claws, they wouldn't be sharp.Instead, it will hurt others first, and then yourself.
So...he appeared here.Kangxi narrowed his eyes slightly, the eighth elder brother Yinhu was indeed Wei Chan's reverse scale.No matter what kind of grievance she has suffered, she can bear it, but when it comes to her own child, her reaction will become somewhat irrational.Concubine Hui is the adoptive mother of the eighth elder brother Yinhu, and besides him, she is the easiest person to take advantage of Yinhu.
"Mr. Wei has this leisure time to enjoy the scenery here. I think the painting that promised me has already been done?!" Kangxi asked unhurriedly.
Xun Ying raised her head involuntarily, with two points of confusion in her eyes.Then she lowered her head and knelt on the ground, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Qing Ling quickly followed Wei Chan and knelt down, feeling very confused.What painting?When did the master promise the emperor to draw pictures for the emperor? !
Qingling didn't think about whether Wei Chan could paint or not. How could Wei Chan once lived as a young lady.Even if you haven't mastered the other three kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, you must know painting.Embroidery patterns are usually drawn by myself. If you don't know how to draw, how can you embroider perfect patterns on clothes? !
Concubine Hui took a look at Wei Chan, but she did not expect that Mrs. Wei has good painting skills.If she really has some skills, then it is normal for the emperor to favor her a little.Even if it was really because Yinhu made Wei Guiren into the eyes of the emperor, this promotion probably has little to do with Yinhu.
The current situation can at best be regarded as the emperor has a new favorite, the emperor has more women, at first she will feel a little bit sad, but now she is used to it naturally.
"Your majesty, it was the concubine who asked Mr. Wei to accompany you to see the scenery of the imperial garden. It's just that the concubine didn't know that the emperor asked Mr. Wei to paint for you, so I ask the emperor to forgive Mr. Wei this time." Concubine Hui also pleaded with Kangxi, but She didn't kneel down.
Concubine Hui didn't really want to help Wei Chan when she opened her mouth. She didn't hide anything about letting nobleman Wei accompany her to the Imperial Garden.The emperor may be clear in his heart now, even if he is not clear now, he will know after a little checking later.
If she didn't respond at this time, it might displease the emperor.Opening her mouth to intercede can still gain a reputation of being virtuous and generous, so she naturally wanted to open her mouth. "Why don't you let nobleman Wei paint a picture for the emperor here? The scenery of this pavilion is not bad for my concubine."
Kangxi glanced at Concubine Hui and frowned slightly.Afterwards, his gaze was placed on Wei Chan again.
Concubine Hui's heart skipped a beat.She thought that with her status, the emperor would not lose face to her in front of nobleman Wei.Even if the emperor doesn't love her much now, he still gives her some respect.After all, she also accompanied the emperor for so many years.However, she seemed to see displeasure in the emperor's heart.
"It's getting colder outside, Mr. Wei's background is not good, so it's not appropriate to paint outside."
"It's the concubine who didn't think carefully." Concubine Hui lowered her eyes, suppressing the sudden displeasure.She thought that nobleman Wei was easy to control, but unexpectedly, she was humiliated by the emperor because of nobleman Wei.Now she understands the feelings of imperial concubine Tong Jia facing Concubine De.
Kangxi watched the calculation in Concubine Hui's eyes turn into ice cold, and then got up contentedly.When he walked to Wei Chan's side, he stopped. "Don't get up, follow me back to Yongshou Palace?!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xun Ying stood up and followed Kangxi out of the pavilion.
She couldn't help but looked up at Kangxi's back, if he hadn't appeared, she would have followed Concubine Hui's wishes.The relationship between her and Concubine Hui is too stalemate, which is not good for the eighth elder brother Yinhu.However, his appearance completely deviated from her expected ending.This time, she really realized what the emperor represented in this era.As long as he wants to, he can easily change the outcome of a matter.
"Your Majesty Wei." Kangxi suddenly stopped for some reason, and Wei Chan just bumped into the somewhat hard back.
"Why are you so careless?!" Kangxi put his palm on Wei Chan's blushing forehead, with a smile on his lips.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Xun Ying couldn't see any tenderness and affection in those eyes, what she saw was only a bit of obvious mystery, which made one's heart chill.
The smile on Kangxi's lips became brighter, he forcibly met Shang Xunying's gaze, and lowered his head slightly so that their gazes seemed to intertwine. "Your Majesty Wei, please remember that Aixinjueluo Yinhu is my eighth son. His future has always been in my hands. Others have no right to interfere."
"..." Xun Ying's gaze changed slightly.
"Let's go, I'm still waiting for the painting you made for me." Only then did Kangxi let go of the restraint on Wei Chan in satisfaction.He subconsciously didn't want Wei Chan and Concubine Hui to get too close, even if Wei Chan's background couldn't help the clique.Since he doesn't like it, it will completely cut off the possibility of the two getting close.
Xun Ying lowered her head slightly, squinted her eyes, and followed Kangxi towards Yongshou Palace.
If it wasn't for Wei Chan, she wouldn't have run out to visit the Royal Garden at this time.Compared with the summer, the scenery of the imperial garden is indeed different, but the coldness is really uncomfortable.
