Queen Xiaoxi

Passing through the verandah, you are faced with a seven-room palace with verandahs at the front and back, rolling sheds and mountain-style tile roofs. It is called "Yanbo Zhishuang".

There are also several tall and lush pine trees in the yard in front of Yanbo Zhishuang Hall. There are also many precious flowers and plants, a few beautiful peacocks, and white cranes interspersed among them. There are many kinds of flowers and plants but not cluttered. Looking at them, there is a sense of calmness but not confusion. Losing the air of majesty.

Kangxi pulled Wanxian across the yard, stopped in an open space near the palace gate, and said, "I will also put a swing for you here. It will be fun then."

Wanxian held Kangxi's hand, shook her head and said, "I don't want the swing anymore. Long live my Lord, please take me inside to have a look."

"Okay, let's go." Kangxi didn't want to argue with Wanxian on such a trivial matter, so he agreed to Wanxian and took her inside.

The main hall is three rooms wide. In the middle of the main hall hangs a plaque with the four characters "Yanbo Zhishuang". Under the plaque is a large picture with the character "福".There is a throne bed at the bottom, which has a seat mattress, a backrest, a hand-in-hand, a sapphire wishful thinking, etc.Duobaoge is also placed on both sides, with various antiques and bonsais on display. Various low cabinets, clocks, incense burners, porcelain, vases, etc. are placed around it.

There is a pair of double-topped vertical cabinets painted with gold flowers and birds on the east wall. On the west wall are paintings and calligraphy handed down from the previous dynasty. The porcelain, enamel, etc. are placed on the large table beside the wall.

Wanxian looked at the splendor of the main hall and said coquettishly to Kangxi: "Why do you think this place is richer than the palace and Changchun Garden?"

Kangxi put his arms around Wanxian and came forward to sit on the throne, explaining: "This is where I receive concubines, emperor's heirs, close ministers, and close Mongolian nobles who specially come to see me. Naturally, it should be more gorgeous and noble."

"So that's it." Wanxian nodded, picked up the sapphire Ruyi placed aside and played with it.

Kangxi hugged Wanxian and said with a smile: "The two rooms on the east side are my sitting room (Dongnuan Pavilion), where we eat. It is also where I talk to the concubines and the emperor's heirs who came to pay their respects, and to talk to the ministers nearby. A place where state affairs are discussed. You should go and take a look."

Wanxian put down Qingyu Ruyi, took Kangxi's hand, and said: "Yes. I want to see if it is different from Qianqing Palace."

"Okay, then please ask Concubine Shu to get off the bus." Kangxi said, taking Wanxian's hand and walking towards the sitting room on the east side.

Liang Jiugong hurriedly took two steps forward, walked to the east door wall, and carefully raised the hanging curtain.

Seeing Liang Jiugong's cleverness, Kangxi nodded with satisfaction.

Wanxian was pulled into Dongnuan Pavilion by Kangxi, and she saw a large red sandalwood screen with thousands of horses galloping in front of her.

Kangxi smiled and took Wanxian's hand across the screen. In front of him, he saw a big kang with bright yellow mattresses, backrests, handrails, etc. on it.There is a red sandalwood kang table next to the mattress, and the four treasures of the study are also placed on the kang table.There are still treasure racks and ornaments placed on both sides of the end of the big Kang.There are many seats neatly placed on both sides near the window, and screens, calligraphy and paintings, etc. are hung on the walls.

Wanxian looked at the unobstructed view of Dongnuang Pavilion, and pulled Kangxi, who was about to walk forward, in boredom, and said coquettishly: "Long live my lord, I find this place boring at first sight. You'd better take my servant to see Xinuang Pavilion. I want to Look where we sleep."

Kangxi saw the impatience on Wanxian's face at a glance, and agreed fondly: "Okay, let's go and see where we sleep. After all, I was negligent. I should take you to see where we sleep first." The dormitory. Let's go." After Kangxi said this, he turned around and walked out with Wanxian.

Wanxian was made happy by Kangxi's words. She held Kangxi's arm affectionately and said coquettishly: "Long live my Lord, please walk slower. Even my slaves can't keep up with you."

Hearing this, Kangxi immediately slowed down and accommodated Wanxian's pace.

Wanxian became even more happy and clung to Kangxi even tighter.

Kangxi opened the curtain and pulled Wanxian towards the west.

The Xinuang Pavilion in the west is different from the Dongnuan Pavilion in the east. The east room is a passing door wall with only a curtain as a partition.As the emperor's bedroom, Xinuang Pavilion naturally needs a door.Kangxi pushed open the small door of Xinuan Pavilion and pulled Wanxian in.At the end, Kangxi took the initiative and gave instructions outside, saying: "I have something to discuss with Empress Shu, and no one is allowed to come in and disturb me."

"Hey." Liang Jiugong agreed quickly and quickly closed the door that Kangxi pushed open.

Wanxian originally thought that when she walked in, she would find a place as wide as the east.But I never expected that as soon as I walked in, I saw a Buddhist niche on the table. In front of the Buddhist niche, there were also enamel pagodas, enamel eight treasures (with wheels, snails, umbrellas, lids, flowers, pots, fish, intestines), enamel Five offerings (one incense burner, two candlesticks, and two incense sticks).The burning of sandalwood in the incense burner can't help but calm people down and make them seem to have no more worries.

Wanxian took Kangxi's hand and was pleasantly surprised to find that it turned out to be a small Buddhist hall. "Long live Lord, this is the Buddhist hall." Wanxian said to Kangxi in surprise.

Kangxi looked at the smile on Wanxian's face and said: "Although we Manchus believe in shamans, our ancestors have been married to Mongolia for several generations. Mongolia, Qinghai, Tibet and other places believe in Tibetan Buddhism, and each Mongolian tribe has its own worship Living Buddha. When I met with leaders of various ministries before, they would often bring Buddha statues to me. This is a place specially created to enshrine those Buddha statues."

"That's just right. In this case, it's even better for the slave. In the past, the slave either burned incense and chanted sutras in the small Buddhist hall of Changchun Palace, or went to Baohua Hall to kowtow and make offerings. Now there is a ready-made one here, which is the most suitable for slaves. From now on, slaves will do it every day I burn three sticks of incense in the morning and evening to pray to the Buddha for the prayers in my heart." Wanxian said happily to Kangxi, the joy on her face almost beyond words.

Before Kangxi could speak, Wanxian broke free from Kangxi's hand, took the initiative to kneel on the futon on the ground, bowed three times to the Buddhist niche above, clasped her hands together and began to pray.

Kangxi looked at Wanxian mumbling words, and couldn't help but wonder what Wanxian's prayer was?
After Wanxian prayed to the Buddha in her heart, she bowed solemnly and respectfully three times.

Kangxi then said: "Okay, get up."

"I know." Wanxian was about to stand up when she saw a big hand appearing in front of her eyes.Wanxian smiled and put her little hand into the big one.

Kangxi pulled Wanxian up and walked inside.

Pushing open the small door in the innermost room, you arrive at the dormitory where Kangxi lived.

There is a calligraphy and painting hanging in front of me.Under the calligraphy and painting is a large table with an enamel incense burner, porcelain bottles and several books on it.

Wanxian let go of Kangxi's hand and wanted to carefully look at the place where she would live in the next one or two months.

As soon as she turned around, Wanxian saw the red sandalwood kang table and the four treasures of the study placed on the kang under the south window.

Wanxian curled her lips and complained to Kangxi: "What? This place is not big, long live my Lord, do you still have to deal with government affairs under this window sill?" After Wanxian finished speaking, she sat on Nanmu opposite, minding her own business. On the floor bed, he looked at Kangxi unhappily.

Kangxi touched his nose and said guiltily: "This is my previous habit. The people below didn't know it and they got ready." As Kangxi said, he sat next to Wanxian and hugged Wanxian's waist in a flattering manner.

"Anyway, I don't care, slave. I don't care how you deal with government affairs after you leave this door. But here, you are not allowed to handle government affairs, especially at night." Wanxian took the initiative to turn around and put her arms around Kangxi's neck, and said arrogantly.

"Okay, okay. This is your world, and everything is up to you." Kangxi fell in love with Wanxian's unruly spirit, kissed Wanxian's forehead indulgently, and said dotingly.

"That's pretty much it. Long live my lord, you can handle government affairs in the main room outside and the Nuan Pavilion to the east. But once you enter here, that won't work. This is where you sleep, and it should be the most comfortable and relaxing place. place. You have already spent enough time here, but you should relax when you get here." Wanxian is not a messy person, and whenever she opens her mouth, she basically thinks about Kangxi.

Listening to Wanxian's concerned words and the sincerity and worry in her eyes, Kangxi kissed Wanxian's little face lovingly and murmured: "My dear, my dear, how can I not feel sorry for you just like this."

"I know that Lord Long Live you care about me, so I also feel sorry for you." Wanxian also kissed the side of Kang Xi's face distressedly, and said: "Everyone in the world thinks that Lord Long Live you are the ninth-five-year-old, Jinyi Yushi, you can do whatever you want. But how many people know the real you?" (End of Chapter)
