Queen Xiaoxi

Chapter 68 Portrait
"Mommy, where will the banquet be held on the [-]th?" Wanxian sat on the embroidered pier and played with Qiaoguo turning over the flower rope.

Grandma Yun was packing up her needlework when she saw Wanxian asking. Grandma Yun quickly replied: "My lord, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival is held in the Imperial Garden. Because the Imperial Garden has such a large scenery, it is a good place to enjoy the moon."

"I see, that day must be very lively." Wanxian said, turning over the flower rope again.

"My young master, did Long Live Lord tell you when to return to Changchun Palace." After thinking about it again and again, Grandma Yun walked to Wanxian's side and asked.

"I didn't tell you. Why did you ask like that?" Wanxian put down the flower rope and asked Aunt Yun strangely.

"My dear, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be in two days. You have been criticized for living in Qianqing Palace these days. If it were the Mid-Autumn Festival, you would still be living here. Are you afraid?" Aunt Yun still has something to say. , she was just worried about Wanxian.Before Wanxian could speak, she added: "My dear master, please think about the scene on the first day of junior high school."

As soon as Aunt Yun told her what happened on the first day of junior high school, Wanxian became a little scared.There are so many ladies who say something here and there, and every sentence is directed at themselves.By the way, on the Mid-Autumn Festival, the empresses of all palaces will be there.

"Mommy, should I tell Lord Long Live about returning to the palace myself?" Wan Xian said this after thinking for a long time.

"Young Master, please think carefully about what to say to Long Live Lord." Grandma Yun touched Wanxian's hand and said worriedly.

"I understand, mama." Wanxian nodded and said solemnly.

Not to mention that Grandma Yun and Wanxian were talking about this matter, even Kangxi and Liang Jiugong were also talking about it.

"Long live the Lord, please drink tea." Liang Jiugong offered a cup of tea and placed it on the Kang table, then said cautiously: "Long live the Lord, I don't know whether I should say this or not."

When Kangxi heard Liang Jiugong's pinching voice, he knew that he was not holding back anything good.He closed his eyes and said, "If you fart, let it go."

"Hey. Long Live Lord, it will be August [-]th in two days." Liang Jiugong was a little frightened when he saw that Kangxi had his eyes closed and his expression was expressionless.

"You don't have to hide your head and show your tail. If you have anything to say, please tell me." Kangxi stared at Liang Jiugong and said.

"Yes, please forgive me for talking too much." Liang Jiugong bent down and said: "Long live Lord, including today, Shugui has lived in the Qianqing Palace for five days. Today is August [-]th, and there are two days left. It's the fifteenth day. On the fifteenth day, Lady Shu will pay her respects to the imperial concubine and attend the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the evening. Should Lady Shu return to the palace?" Liang Jiugong originally wanted to say a few more words, but seeing Lord Long Live's expression getting darker and darker, I couldn’t pronounce it well, so I quickly said the most important words.

"You're the only one who talks too much." Kangxi heard the implication of Liang Jiugong's words.To make it clear, the little girl is too eye-catching, and she is afraid that the people in the harem will tear her apart.

"This slave is also afraid that something will happen to Master Shu." Liang Jiugong said with a smile.

"Okay, I understand. Ask someone to keep a close eye on her. If anything happens, come and report to me immediately." Kangxi was about to get up when he saw the embroidered handkerchief left by Wanxian on the kang table and said.

Liang Jiugong immediately showed his loyalty after listening to Kangxi's instructions. "Long live Lord, don't worry. If there is any trouble, I will report it to you."

"Let's go to Xinuan Pavilion." Kangxi picked up the embroidered handkerchief and walked towards Xinuan Pavilion.

Liang Jiugong hurriedly followed.As soon as he reached Xinuang Pavilion, Liang Jiugong shouted: "Long live the Lord is here."

Wanxian, who was sitting on the embroidered pier, quickly got up and walked to the door to salute and wait.

Kangxi was very happy to see the person he wanted to see as soon as he opened the door.After waving his hands to the rest of the crowd to leave, he pulled Wanxian towards the warm bed.

After Liang Jiugong saw Kangxi's gesture, he immediately asked Grandma Yun and Qiaoguo to go out and closed the door thoughtfully.

"So good, wait for me at the door." Kangxi said while sitting on the edge of the Kang.

"Long live the Lord." Although Wanxian was happy that Kangxi praised her like this, she felt that it was not good to praise her for even the smallest things.After saying three words, Wanxian knelt down and took off Kangxi's shoes.

"You come up too." Kangxi got on the kang and lay half on the heated kang.

Kangxi sometimes felt a little incredible.It's not like no one has done these things before, but as long as it is done by a little girl, I will feel happy in my heart.This may mean that the little girl was born to be in harmony with herself.

Wanxian took off her shoes obediently and sat next to Kangxi.Kangxi saw this and grabbed Wanxian, making Wanxian lean into Kangxi's arms.

"Long live the Lord." Wanxian was obviously frightened.His head was pressed against Kang Xi's chest, but his tone was more coquettish than before.

Kangxi was also somewhat satisfied with Wanxian's change, at least it was a sign of intimacy. "Just leave the painting and I'll polish it up." Kangxi hugged Wanxian with his right hand and stroked the broken hair on Wanxian's temple with his right hand.

Wanxian was in Kangxi's arms, indulged in Kangxi's tenderness and the scent of ambergris.Listening to what Kangxi said, he took a deep breath and said, "Long live the painting, wait until the painting is finished and hang it in the slave's bedroom."

"If you are happy, of course it is okay." Kangxi touched Wanxian's face, listened to Wanxian's words, pinched Wanxian's face and said.

"Then the slave will hang the painting on the bed so that the slave can see it if he wants to." Wanxian closed her eyes and imagined the scene.When Wan Xian was thinking about it, she suddenly said: "Long live the Lord, does he have a portrait?"

"Of course there is a portrait of me. What do you do with this?" Kangxi asked.

"Where is it? Can you show me to this servant?" Wan Xian was tempted when Long Live Master said there was a portrait. "I want to see the portrait of Lord Long live when he was young."

"What's so difficult about this?" Kangxi also became interested.

"Liang Jiugong, Liang Jiugong." Wanxian was in Kangxi's arms. When she heard Kangxi calling someone, she quickly stood up and sat aside.

Kangxi looked at Wanxian with great interest, and when Liang Jiugong came in, he ordered before he could speak: "Please send someone to the Ruyi Pavilion to get some of my portraits. Your dear master wants to see them."

"Come on, I'll tell you this." Liang Jiugong hurried out of the room and told the eunuch to get the portrait.

After a while, Liang Jiugong led five eunuchs into Xinuan Pavilion.Liang Jiugong greeted him and said, "Long live Lord Qi, Master Qi Shu, the portrait has arrived."

"Let me take a look." Wanxian quickly stood up and put on her shoes, wanting to go in and take a closer look.

Liang Jiugong quickly asked the first young eunuch to open the portrait. Inside was the portrait painted when Kangxi ascended the throne.A six-year-old child, dressed in the emperor's court uniform, showed an imperial aura even though he was young.

"Is this when Long Live Master was a child? He was so domineering." Wanxian looked at it, fascinated.

"Why did you bring this one?" Kangxi also got off the kang and walked to Wanxian's side and said.As he spoke, he pulled Wanxian to the second portrait. This second portrait was painted by Kangxi after he surrendered to Obai. It was so high-spirited.

The third picture shows the complete suppression of the San Francisco Rebellion, with the emperor's majesty in full display.

The fourth painting was painted after the Galdan rebellion was put down, and the emperor's spirit ruled the world.

The fifth picture is about the fiftieth birthday, when the world is united and the world is united.Wanxian was mesmerized when she looked at it, and felt that every painting was good.

After thinking about it, Wanxian stuck it on Kangxi's body.He said sheepishly: "Long live Lord, I have a request. I hope Long Live Lord can grant it."

"What request do you want to tell me? I won't tell you whether it's accurate or not." Kangxi rarely heard the little girl say what she wanted, so he became curious.

"I would like to ask the Lord Long Live to reward me with one of these paintings. Any one will do." Wanxian spoke softer and quieter, and her head lowered as she spoke.

Kangxi never expected that Wanxian would mention such a thing, so he asked: "Why do you want my portrait? Tell me the reason first."

"Minion, I want to leave a message and hang the portrait in the bed. This way I can keep company with the minion, and I can also keep company with the minion's painting." Wanxian thought very simply. After returning to the palace, she would definitely do it. I wish you long live the Lord.With the portrait of Long Live Lord, you can treat yourself as if Long Live Lord is accompanying you.

Kangxi somehow thought of this reason and said: "I see, then I will give you one. You can choose which one you want." Kangxi thought that it was just a portrait. Since she had this intention, then she give her.But I also became curious, which one the little girl would choose.

When Wan Xian heard the Lord Long Live saying which one he wanted, she immediately thought about it. She walked to the fifth painting and said, "I want this one."

"Why this one?" Kangxi also walked to the fifth picture, took Wanxian's hand and asked.

"This one is good, this one looks more like Long Live Master now. I like the current Long Live Master." Wan Xian said shyly.

"Okay, then I'll give you this one." Kangxi took Wanxian's hand and said forcefully.
