The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 103 The Queen’s Purpose
"The Queen has always been kind-hearted and is a blessing to me and the others." Concubine Niu Hulu also said with a smile. Between the lines, her expression and demeanor all reflected the sincerity of what she said.

Concubine Niu Hulu understood clearly that the queen's reason for doing this was just to gain a good reputation. As for the other purposes hidden in it, it depends on who can see clearly.

Only those who can see clearly can gain understanding.

The queen smiled when she heard this and said: "I am the queen, not only the mother of the country, but also your mistress. You are all concubines selected through the draft to share the worries of the palace and to spread the flowers for the emperor. I am the concubine. As the Queen and the Mistress, I will take care of you lovingly."

The queen spoke softly, and the soft knife was quietly hidden.

The mother of the country and the mistress have dual honors. Whether she is a concubine or a concubine in the harem, she is a unique and irreplaceable queen. To her, compared with her, they were just ordinary concubines.

Just like these things, she did it in compliance with her title. It was the Queen's orthodox thing to do, and others did it. If the name is not legitimate, it would be inappropriate.

Her orthodoxy is more unique than anyone else's; only her position is unique in the world.

Concubine Niu Hulu didn't care whether the queen did it intentionally or not. Whatever the queen said was true. Whether the queen wanted to knock the mountain and shake the tiger, or she made insinuations, she received them all.

The relationship between Concubine Niu Hulu and the Queen, whether it is harmony on display or the shadow of swords and swords in secret, the relationship between them has been determined a long time ago. Now, no matter how many words or words No means can change the essence of the most.

After understanding this, Concubine Niu Hulu had nothing to be angry about. Those who cannot rise to the top can only endure. Concubine Niu Hulu has become very familiar with this word over the years.

Concubine Niu Hulu did not refute, but followed the words respectfully: "It is my concubine and others who are so lucky that they met such a kind-hearted empress as their mistress."

Concubine Niu Hulu never refutes the queen. The queen is the queen, and she is the concubine; the queen is the mistress, and she is the concubine. The queen has done well again, and Concubine Niu Hulu is not eager to fight for this time.

"I entered the palace with you, and I know you best, Concubine Niu Hulu! You are the sweetest. Your words are the most beautiful." The queen said with a smile.

The queen spoke as if she and Concubine Niu Hulu were the most harmonious mistress and concubine.

The concubines all listened silently. When the queen and Concubine Niu Hulu finished their greetings, they would not speak easily, whether they were arrogant or not.

"It's snowing heavily today. I'm afraid the imperial doctors will come a little late. Huan Yan, ask the servants to add more fire, and then ask the slaves to bring hot tea. Ask the concubines to drink a cup of hot tea to warm themselves up." The queen glanced at the concubines standing below and gave orders to Wan Yandao who was waiting at the side.

Ding Ruzhong replaced Yuan Yan and went to the Imperial Medical Office to hire an imperial doctor. So Yuan Yan is still waiting in the palace.

"Yes." Wan Yan behaves in a disciplined manner. He is the Queen's right-hand man, and Wan Yan always fulfills the Queen's orders. echoed.

The queen turned her head again and said to the concubines: "It's snowing heavily today, so the imperial doctor may be delayed on the road for a longer time. What about us? Wait slowly, don't be silent all the time, just have a casual chat. Let's kill some time." "Concubine Wanyan, the hairpin on your head looks very beautiful. I see it as the finishing touch. You look very beautiful today." The Queen has sharp eyes, and because of her status as Concubine Wanyan, Even if Concubine Wanyan was not favored, she would not be looked down upon by anyone.

The queen wanted to protect her, but also to give face to the empress dowager and empress dowager, and to take into account Mongolia's face.

"Back to the Queen, this hairpin was presented to me by the Ministry of Internal Affairs a few days ago." Concubine Wanyan raised her hand and touched the hairpin on her head. The corners of her mouth unconsciously curled up slightly, and a smile filled her eyes. Then he replied:
"I saw that I liked it, so I put it on." Concubine Wanyan is also a patient person. Even though she has not been favored so far, she still remains calm and unhurried. If you are more sensitive, you may be able to see or vaguely sense that this person has the shadow of Concubine Niu Hulu.

"Back to the Empress, it wasn't like this when I was appointed to the Imperial Household Office." Little Concubine Li looked at the whole process, looked at the Empress, then looked at Concubine Wanyan, and said boldly: "I understand, this slave. , it was Concubine Wanyan who picked up the beads and strung them together herself with her own skill."

At first she got it out of her mouth, but later on it wasn't that difficult. Little Concubine Li spoke more smoothly, talking and laughing boldly, "Concubine Wanyan has a clever mind and a skillful hand. She strung a string of beads on it, and the hairpin looked brand new in an instant. Look at it. That hairpin instantly no longer looks like an old thing."

"Oh!" The queen also said in surprise, looking at Concubine Wanyan in amazement, "Concubine Wanyan is so skillful. I finally found out today that there is such a clever person in this palace."

The queen praised him lavishly.

Concubine Wanyan was a little shy, but she still smiled beautifully. She admitted gently and generously, "I had nothing to do in the palace, so I took a hairpin and strung it together. I really didn't expect the hairpin to be so beautiful."

"You are indeed very skillful!" Concubine Niu Hulu also praised: "A little inspiration can become a treasure. I also saw that Concubine Wanyan's hairpin was indeed very beautiful. Although the one presented by the Ministry of Internal Affairs is also beautiful, after all, There is still something missing, and I usually don't notice it, but comparing it before and after, this hairpin is really ordinary, and it can't stop Concubine Wanyan's skillful hands. Now look at it, everything is beautiful."

The queen said: "The Ministry of Internal Affairs is mainly about stability. There is no way to think of changing those tricks. The clothes and jewelry they make are beautiful, but they don't have much new ideas. You still need to be dexterous and make changes yourself."

"The Queen is right." Concubine Niu Hulu also praised. "You will know after seeing Concubine Wanyan's achievements." The Queen has to carry Concubine Wanyan, and Concubine Niu Hulu is no exception.

The face given to Concubine Wanyan is not only given to Concubine Wanyan; it is also given to the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, and even more to Mongolia.

The main hall of Kunning Palace was bustling with excitement. The queen raised her head, Concubine Niu Hulu also raised her head, and the concubines also participated enthusiastically, and it suddenly became lively.

Everyone was talking about the materials of jewelry and clothes; what looked beautiful and what looked innovative. What kind of jewelry is good, what kind of clothing material is good, what kind of flower garden is beautiful!
Passing the time, waiting for the arrival of Taiyuan Hospital.

Qinrou remained silent amid the bustle. She didn't like the bustle in the first place, and she didn't want to be conspicuous. Others didn't speak to her, so she hid silently in the bustle.

The true feelings and false intentions between people always make people secretly sad.

Therefore, Qinrou always chooses to speak less and make fewer mistakes. Avoid misfortunes coming from your mouth.
