The favored imperial concubine

Chapter 116

When Kangxi heard what Mu Jin said, a stern look flashed quickly in his deep phoenix eyes.Kangxi looked at the obedient and docile Nian Xilan beside him, suddenly his heart moved, and he even reached out to pick up the half bowl of pearl ginkgo sweet soup that Nian Xilan had just drank, and drank it down one mouthful under the surprised eyes of everyone.

Nian Xilan looked at Kangxi in shock, deeply moved by Kangxi's care for her, her clear eyes became more crystal clear, staring at Kangxi, and softly called: "Your Majesty..."

Nian Xilan just called out, then fell silent again. Under Kangxi's scorching gaze, she gradually blushed, "Your Majesty, this is my daughter's favorite soup, I'm afraid it doesn't suit the emperor's taste..."

Kangxi naturally saw the emotion in Nian Xilan's eyes, and joked with a slight smile: "My concubine's taste is really good, and the pearl ginkgo sweet soup made according to this method is really sweet but not greasy, and extremely delicious. From this point of view, in the future I still want to taste more of my concubine's favorite delicacies, maybe there will be unexpected surprises."

As soon as Kangxi's words came out, everyone present was shocked.

Kangxi is the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and it has always been the only practice for him to reward his concubines and courtiers with only a few mouthfuls of imperial vegetables, so how could he eat other people's leftovers?But now Kangxi not only drank the remaining half bowl of soup in Nian Xilan's bowl in front of all the concubines, princes, and royal family members, but also drank it with joy and satisfaction.

Seeing this situation, everyone was already extremely surprised.However, according to what Kangxi said, he seemed to be planning to gradually develop a habit of this incredible thing.As soon as Kangxi said this, everyone's faces were filled with excitement.No matter what everyone thinks, no one dares to question Nian Xilan's status as a favorite concubine.

Seeing this situation, Concubine De knew that Kangxi had made up her mind to protect Nian Xilan to the end.Concubine De recalled what the servant girl next to Nian Xilan had done with the bowl of red dates and black-bone chicken soup, and recalled her reckless arrangement yesterday, Concubine De only felt that she was so stupid that she was dazzled by jealousy and almost made a big mistake , Ruined the bright future of himself and his two sons.

Concubine De hurriedly re-examined her recent actions carefully in her heart, the more she thought about it, the more she felt creepy, and suddenly realized that she had made such a serious mistake, almost exposing her connections in the palace for many years.

Concubine De thought of the servant girl who presented the soup to the palace just now, and she secretly rejoiced in her heart, but this time she used a trick of borrowing the chicken to lay eggs, using the eyeliner put by other people, to put the medicine on Nian Xilan In the prepared soup.Even if Kangxi pursued the matter afterwards, he would only find one scapegoat.And as long as he silences the other maid in charge of poisoning at the right time, he will never be found out about this matter.

Concubine De was thinking, while absent-mindedly eating the red bean stuffed rice dumplings in front of her, it was obviously her favorite delicacy in the past, but now she felt extremely bitter and tasteless.

Concubine De raised her head, watching Kangxi gently wipe away the glutinous rice grains from the corners of Nian Xilan's mouth, she couldn't help but sighed softly, and secretly made up her mind to stay calm, keep a low profile, wait for the right time, and then punish Nian Xi orchid.

Concubine De looked at Nian Xilan's round abdomen, and thought disdainfully in her heart: There are two little princesses on the left and right who have nothing to do with the overall situation, so what's the harm in letting them be born?Maybe when the time comes, Nian Xilan, who has a swollen face and out-of-shape figure, will be rejected by Kangxi without waiting for her own action.

Prince Yinreng looked at Kangxi pampering and caring for Nian Xilan, but he couldn't help but think of his empress mother who died young.

Yinreng, who has never enjoyed maternal love, looked at Nian Xilan who was pregnant, but secretly thought in his heart: If his empress mother is still alive and is favored by Huang Ama, then when I make Huang Ama angry At that time, there was Queen Emma beside Huang Ama who said some good things for herself in a timely manner. Perhaps the relationship between herself and Huang Ama would not go to the point where father and son are suspicious and monarchs and ministers are separated.

Yinfeng's eyes dimmed, and he picked up the flagon in front of him again and wanted to pour a glass of wine, but found that the flagon was empty, so he couldn't help frowning and told the little eunuch next to him: "Bring Gu another pot of wine, Hurry up."

The little eunuch persuaded anxiously: "His Royal Highness has already drunk four jugs of wine. If you drink too much realgar wine, you will be intoxicated. Your Highness should drink less!"

Seeing that even a young eunuch dared to disobey his order, Yinfeng frowned immediately, and said angrily: "Gu told you to bring the pot of wine quickly, you didn't hear clearly, did you?"

The little eunuch trembled from Yinreng's cold voice, pleading guilty again and again: "Damn you, damn you! Your Highness, please calm down! This servant is going to fetch wine for His Highness!"

Yinhu and Yin'e sat on the left and right sides of Yinhu respectively.Yin'e only cared about drinking wine carelessly, and even persuaded Yinhu and Yinhu to drink with him.

Yinzhen helplessly pushed away the wine glass that Yin'er handed to her, and sneered softly: "What's so good about this realgar wine for the festival? You can't finish drinking it! Wait until tomorrow to have a small gathering at my house , I will find some good wine for you! In addition to the bamboo leaf green you like to drink, I also found a kind of foreign wine that foreigners like to drink. When I first drank it, it was inevitable that the taste was a bit strange, but I got used to it You will feel that there is an indescribable charm in it.”

Yin'e waved her hands in fear, "Don't mention the things you got from foreigners! Only the dark bitter tea from last time made me tormented. It's hard for you to drink it. What's so good about bitter tea that's a hundred times worse than traditional Chinese medicine soup? I'm afraid the foreign wine you recommend today must be extremely weird, and it may not taste as good as this realgar wine!"

Yinzhen narrowed her peach blossom eyes slightly, shook her head helplessly and sighed: "It's really a good thing that was ruined by you before you tasted it in your mouth! Good coffee is described like this by you, it's really wasteful! "

Yinzhen ignored Yin'er, smiled and said to Yinhu: "Old Ten is a reckless man who doesn't know how to appreciate it, but the starling must come to my house to taste the good wine I have treasured!"

Yinhu's face was still a little pale, but he looked pretty good.At this moment, hearing Yinzhen's invitation, Yinhu smiled slightly, nodded and said: "I'm free now, and wherever there is good wine, I will naturally go there. Ninth brother's invitation, I will definitely come."
