The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 427: Disaster for Thousand Years

This is what he has to take care of!

Qinrou didn't need to say this, Fushun also understood. After this was said, the servants serving in the bedroom were all delighted. The palace maids were all born in the Baoyi Banner, some of them were rich and noble at home, and some of them had no food to eat at home.

Ten taels of silver was not a small amount, but it was not too much either. For a poor family, these ten taels of silver were life-saving money; but for a palace maid from a wealthy family, ten taels of silver was really nothing.

Qinrou didn't want this. Even if the palace maids and servants from wealthy families were rewarded with 100 taels, it would still be insufficient; Qinrou didn't want their gratitude either.

For those from poorer families, this money is a big income that helps them in time of need. Qin Rou did not intend to buy people's hearts, because the hearts of people in the harem are not so easy to buy!
"I'll go right away!" Fushun responded hastily. The concubine in Zhenshunzhai was getting better, and Fushun was very happy. Without mentioning his feelings, after spending so many days together, the concubine was not a difficult master to serve, and now it seemed that she had a bright future.

The master is fine, the Dinghaishenzhen in the Zhenshunzhai of Chengqian Palace has returned. Fushun is very happy!
When the concubine said she wanted to give him a reward, Fushun was naturally happy to do it. In order to celebrate the concubine's recovery, Fushun also called the servants in the bedroom and said, "The concubine has a reward, follow closely!"

No matter what the servants in the bedroom thought, they all said "yes"! The master has a reward, so the servants are naturally happy to accept it.

They all glanced at the concubine lying on the bed, then followed Fu Shun out happily.

Only Aunt Chen and Xiaoman were left, still serving by the side.

After everyone left, Xiaoman looked out the door with a worried look on her face. The servants that the Empress had ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to temporarily serve the concubine had all been taken out, starting with Cangzi. After making sure that no one was there, Xiaoman whispered, "Concubine, may the reward be too little? Among the servants that the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent to serve, two of them have quite wealthy families."

If one is not born into a bondservant family, one is bound to be poor; some families often serve in the palace, and in their eyes, these ten taels of silver are just thrown down for nothing.

Even though they were from wealthy families, they still entered the palace to be maids. It was just a rigid rule. The bondservants were originally the emperor's household slaves. No matter how well they were raised at home, it was their duty to serve their masters in the palace.

What Xiaoman meant was, was the reward a little too little?

Qin Rou raised her head, her expression calm, not caring much, and said firmly: "No."

After this, how could she not have made any contribution? She must have worked hard! Qinrou was also willing to teach her some principles. Perhaps it would help her to gain a foothold in the world more easily!
Qin Rou replied: "I rewarded them for their good service. If it was because my family was wealthy, I would have thought of giving them more rewards. Even if I gave each of them 100 taels, it would not be enough."

Three years as a magistrate earns 100,000 silver coins; the palace maids have many sons working in government offices, so if they use their brains, they have many ways to take advantage of the people's wealth. But they are all hidden from the public!

If they were to be grateful for the reward, they would probably have to give several hundred or a thousand taels. Qinrou's annual allowance was not even that much. In that case, Qinrou would not ask for too much and spend money for such a frivolous thing. Her money was not blown by the wind.

Aunt Chen nodded with a smile. Xiaoman had thought it through, but there was no need to reward her too much. After all, she had to be able to stand on her own in the palace. People who were bought with money might turn around and betray her.

And just as the concubine said, the palace maids from the bannerman family are not short of that little bit of silver, and they will not be satisfied no matter how much they are given. It is well known that the concubine is not rich, and there is no need to pretend to be rich. It is not necessarily a good thing to be too popular in the palace! It is better to reward according to merit, which is the most fair and just. Even if people come to find fault, they can't say anything.

Therefore, Aunt Chen also agreed and said, "That's right! The servants have worked hard for more than ten days, and the concubine's reward is already a generous reward. The concubine escaped death, so it is reasonable for her to give a generous reward in a moment of joy."

Aunt Chen reminded Xiaoman carefully that when it comes to rewards, the more the better... the right thing to do is to reward according to merit.

"Yes." If Qin Rou only gave some advice and taught Xiao Man a few things, then Aunt Chen had crushed all the truths and stuffed them into Xiao Man's stomach. Xiao Man was not a stupid person. With the concubine's teaching and Aunt Chen's special advice, Xiao Man also understood the truth.

Qin Rou nodded. Qin Rou didn't say anything. I don't know what she was thinking. Everyone knew about the bustle outside the bedroom. Even Qin Rou and others in the bedroom could feel the bustle!
Xiaoman was young after all, and when she heard the noise, she couldn't help but look outside and follow the crowd. Aunt Chen had experienced such noise many times, so she could endure it for a while.

Although she was happy, she would not think of joining in the fun right away. Aunt Chen looked at Xiaoman and said, "You can also join in the fun. I will serve the concubine here."

Xiaoman turned around and first looked at the concubine. In Zhenshunzhai, Xiaoman knew who was the head of the family and her real master.

If the concubine does not give orders, Xiaoman will hesitate for a moment, waiting for the concubine's instructions, let alone Aunt Chen, even if it is the Queen.

Qin Rou didn't care about this. She liked quietness and didn't like excitement. But after being quiet for a long time, she didn't mind the excitement. So he whispered to her, "Go!"

"Thank you, Concubine!" Xiaoman bowed happily and went out to join in the fun.

Qin Rou's eyebrows were drooping, she was not in a good mood; Cui Daorong said: If the adverse wind understands your feelings, don't be easily destroyed! However, there are eight out of ten things in life that are not as you wish;
To put it another way, the way things are in the world is that 80% of the people in the world go against their will. Things that you don't want happen, and what you truly hope for often don't turn out to be what you wish for!
It seems that people come to this world just to experience the word "hurt". Those who don't hurt others much are hurt more by others; those who hurt others a lot are hurt more by others.

It seemed that people were born with a wounded heart. It was supposed to be a happy event, but Qinrou didn't feel happy. Having lived once, she didn't care about death in the past, and now, she couldn't bear to die with the life in her belly.

After going through the gates of hell, I am no longer afraid of life or death. This time, I am only afraid of the emperor, and I am going to get what I want.

Qin Rou closed her eyes, not wanting to think too much.

Inside Chengqian Palace, especially in Zhenshunzhai, there was a lively and festive atmosphere. The uproar outside Chengqian Palace was no less intense:

Everyone said that Concubine Nara might not be able to survive. The period started on the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month and lasted until the 8th day of the first lunar month. The most important and busiest days of the year almost all fell during these days.

She had been seriously ill for ten days, and everyone thought she was going to die, but she got well again. The concubines around her were really shocked when they heard this: This evil will last for thousands of years!

The ghost lingers!
