The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 99 Behavior does not match your heart
Qinrou was shocked! How could you not be shocked? This happened as soon as it was said.

Qinrou suppressed her thoughts and went to bathe and change clothes first, respecting ghosts and gods and staying away from them. She might not believe in ghosts and gods, but she would maintain the most basic respect.

People in the world are inherently contradictory when their actions don't go with their hearts, and she is one of them.

While taking a bath, I was still thinking about this matter. To put it bluntly, it was just a matter for the concubine. When it came to the emperor, it was as simple as crushing an ant. The emperor needed to consider the ant's thoughts. ? unnecessary.

If the emperor hates a person, will he still ask him to sleep next to him? In the same way, the imperial mausoleum is also the emperor's territory. The emperor may not lack the three acres of land, but why should the emperor want to bury an annoying person in it? Thinking about it this way, it was very simple, and Qinrou accepted it quickly in her mind.

It's just a trivial matter to deal with a white concubine.

But Qinrou also remembered.

She remembered that Bai was not the second named deceased person she had seen in the palace.

She is the third one!
She forgot about Concubine Yan. Concubine Yan, whom she had never met before and died during the Mid-Autumn Festival, was the first dead person she knew after entering the palace.

The second one is Da Gege. The third one is Bai.

It seems that this is the fate of the people in the palace. Facing death, obscurity.

Bathing, changing clothes, combing and bundling hair, this whole process proceeds in an orderly manner, layer by layer. And with the servants waiting on him, Qin Rou, the master, didn't need to worry too much.

There may be troubles in the harem, but they have nothing to do with her.

The slaves used towels to carefully wipe Qinrou's wet hair dry little by little!
The master and servants were busy, but unexpected people came quietly.

"Honey, concubine." Li Dequan was already familiar with Zhenshunzhai. Even if there were no servants to guide him along the way, Li Dequan would come in by himself.

The arrival of this person was truly unexpected. Qinrou might as well be frightened, but she still understood that in the end, everything in the world was not the king's land; and the shore of the land was not the king's ministers. The emperor cannot go anywhere!

In the same way; it's not surprising that Li Dequan next to him would appear here.

Li Dequan's eyes clearly saw the surprise in Concubine Hadana's eyes.

"My father-in-law, please get up," Qinrou was surprised, but she quickly put her surprise away, her hair still hanging loose.

Because I was so surprised, I didn't even remember to stand up.

Fortunately, Li Dequan didn't care about this. He only smiled but said with a bit of respect: "The emperor ordered the servant to come and pick up the concubine? I didn't expect that the concubine just took a bath and changed clothes."

Li Dequan, you can't tell whether the smile on his face is genuine or the respect he shows is genuine.

How else to say he is awesome? Without means and skills, even if the emperor relied heavily on him, he would not be able to secure his position as the leader of the Qianqing Palace.

Qin Rou hesitated for a moment, whether Li Dequan had conveyed the wrong imperial edict, or whether she had heard it wrong. Qinrou thinks the latter is more likely.

"Eunuch Li, I remember that the concubine of Yongshou Palace is accompanying the Holy Emperor." One palace is in charge of one palace. Concubine Niu Hulu is in charge of Yongshou Palace, so it can be called: Concubine Niu Hulu; it can also be called Yongshou. Princess.

Qinrou hesitated, but kept her sense.

The emperor was the Son of Heaven. Generally speaking, when he summoned Concubine Niu Hulu to accompany him, he rarely summoned other concubines.

After all, the Yongshou Palace Concubine also has to have face.

In her true heart, Qinrou did not want to confront Concubine Niu Hulu, nor did she want Concubine Niu Hulu to think that she was so ambitious that she dared to rise to snatch Concubine Niu Hulu's favor. The King of Yama in each palace is trying to fight, and brats like them are mixed in and can only be used as cannon fodder.

"Exactly?" Li Dequan replied with a smile. "Concubine I went to Qixiang Palace today. When the news came to the emperor, Concubine Niu Hulu was accompanying me. I just want the emperor to summon you to see you."

Li Dequan was still cheerful.

Qinrou smiled, she probably understood the words. This means that it was Concubine Niu Hulu's intention to summon her. Even if Concubine Niu Hulu did not ask for the order in person, she still reminded her verbally. In short, this is what she meant.

Qinrou did not refuse and just said: "Please wait a moment, Eunuch, and let me tidy up my appearance." She couldn't go there with disheveled hair, disheveled appearance, and disgrace in front of the emperor, which was enough for her to drink a pot.

In fact, there was no room for her to refuse. Even if it’s to watch monkeys playing? She also had to go there with a smile.

Li Dequan was not in any trouble, and just said: "No hurry, concubine, please tidy up your appearance first." Li Dequan also knew that it was impossible for Concubine Nala to go out without her appearance. Not a sinner! Want to be treated like this.

It is impossible for Li Dequan to say that he is not in a hurry, but he really is not in a hurry. Fushun and others knew the importance, so they speeded up without Qinrou's urging.

Qinrou's hair was half-dry before. After a lot of busy work, she finally wiped her hair dry. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Xiaoman was used to taking care of things like combing her hair and washing her face, and her hands and feet were also nimble. Qinrou quickly combed her hair into a simple two-piece hairpin, put on a hairpin and silk flowers, and it was done.

There is no need to change clothes. Just pack up and leave, never dragging your feet.

Crisp and neat.

In a hurry, they arrived at the Arrow Pavilion, where Kangxi and Concubine Niu Hulu were riding horses.

The sons and princesses of the Manchu family are all amazed when riding and shooting. Just looking at Concubine Niu Hulu, one can tell that she is extremely dignified normally, but when she is on horseback, she is especially heroic.

Qinrou said in her heart: This is the daughter raised by the nobles of the Eight Banners of Manchu and Mongolia. Even though she is noble, she is also proud and heroic.

They can take care of housework and ride on horseback. And he will not lose his pride.

The horses of Kangxi and Concubine Niu Hulu soon stopped. Qinrou saluted and said, "This servant pays homage to the Emperor, and this servant pays homage to Concubine Niu Hulu."

Cangzi, who was waiting beside her, also saluted with her.

Concubine Niu Hulu only smiled slightly and stood aside with a dignified expression. But just standing there, she shined.

Qinrou thought about the Queen and Concubine Niu Hulu. They are two completely different individuals, and their temperaments are also so distinct:

If the Queen is gentle and virtuous, a lady, and thoughtful in explaining her words, then Concubine Niu is the type who is calm and steady, who speaks lightly and kills everyone instantly.

Concubine Niu Hulu stood there, and her first impression was the four characters of "everyone's demeanor", which was extremely shocking.

It's not that the queen is not good, it's just that the queen is gentle, virtuous and full of aura; however, Concubine Niu Hulu's aura is even more dazzling.

Both are two extremely good people.

Kangxi dismounted, but still extended his hand, as if the horse race or the events in the palace had no impact on the emperor.

"Come." Emperor Kangxi said casually. Qinrou also stood up with Kangxi's strength.
