The favored imperial concubine

Chapter 165

After Kangxi finished speaking, ignoring Niu Hulu's astonished eyes, he ordered lightly: "Now that the prescription has been delivered, you should go back first."

Niu Hulu's heart shuddered, secretly seeking the emperor was really thoughtful and clever, it seems that if he wants to achieve his goal, he still needs careful planning and preparation before he can achieve it.

On the surface, Niu Hulu made a face of shame, repeatedly kowtowed to Kangxi to plead guilty, and then retreated according to Kangxi's will, but in fact he was not discouraged in his heart.Niu Hulu thought of his daughter who died tragically, and thought of the figure he accidentally saw near the Xianfu Palace on the day when the side hall of the Xianfu Palace happened, and was once again excited that he had discovered such an important secret.

Niu Hulu thought to himself: The reason why God allowed him to accidentally break the adultery between Concubine Xi and Prince Yong when he went to Xianfu Palace to borrow Buddhist scriptures from Concubine Hui must be because of the pain of losing his daughter, so Give yourself a chance to get justice for your daughter.However, how to use this secret to achieve your own goals requires careful planning.

Niu Hulu believes that the key to how to act next depends on the depth of Kangxi's affection for Concubine Xi and his true attitude towards the side hall of Xianfu Palace.Niu Hulu thought of the mystery hidden in the prescription she presented, and couldn't help showing a smug smile.

Niu Hulu believed that after Kangxi ordered the imperial physician to read the prescription, he would see him again soon.And if Kangxi didn't want to listen to her explanation, even if she directly ordered to take her life, Niu Hulu didn't feel any fear in his heart except that it was a pity that he failed to avenge his daughter.Anyway, her heart was already dead when her daughter died. If she hadn't supported her with the belief of revenge for her daughter, Niu Hulu would never have survived to this day.

Today, Niu Hulu feels that her only purpose in life is to avenge her daughter.In addition to the excitement and pleasure of revenge, every day of her life is only pain and longing.

Kangxi saw that after Niu Hulu's retirement, Nian Xilan was still a little tired, and his mood was obviously not as relaxed and happy as before, so he asked considerately, "Is Lan'er a little tired?"

Nian Xilan nodded lightly, and said softly: "It is true that I am a little tired. My concubine's eye disease has not recovered, and I can't continue to accompany the emperor for a walk. I have spoiled the emperor's interest, and I hope the emperor will be happy."

Kangxi frowned slightly, and said with a slight smile: "Why did Lan Er suddenly become so polite and alienated from me? Could it be because of the concubine Niu Hulu?"

Nian Xilan sipped her lips, and denied it: "That's not true! I have always been so courteous when facing the emperor in person! Doesn't the emperor remember?"

Kangxi thought to himself: Looking around in the harem, which concubine would dare to say such arrogant and unreasonable words to him?However, there was still a gentle smile on his face and he nodded, "Lan'er has always been so gentle, virtuous, generous and polite."

Kangxi's serious answer and pampering tone seemed like a helpless elder trying to appease a naughty and willful child, which instantly made Nian Xilan lose his temper.

Nian Xilan thought about it carefully, and felt that her idleness just now was somewhat inexplicable, so she smiled shyly at Kangxi again, and said coquettishly: "After walking for a long time, I feel a little hungry...I want to eat hibiscus Pancakes and sweet-scented osmanthus cake... I also want to drink Lu'an melon slices..."

Kangxi helped Nian Xilan onto the shoulders, and said with a slight smile: "I have ordered people to send the refreshments you just mentioned to the Yujing Pavilion. It's just that I have something to say first, you want to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake and hibiscus cake As much as you want, it’s just that you shouldn’t drink too much of Lu’an Guapian at this time. I can only allow you to take two sips..."

Nianxi Lan Dai frowned slightly, and pleaded pitifully: "Is three sips okay? Two sips are really not enough!"

Kangxi snorted coldly, raised his eyebrows and said, "Just take a sip!"

Nian Xilan nodded with a smile and said, "Two sips, let's take two sips! That's the deal!"

Kangxi was amused by Nian Xilan, stretched out his hand to pinch Nian Xilan's tender cheeks, and said with a light smile, "Silly girl!"

Kangxi and Nian Xilan were drinking tea and chatting in the Yujing Pavilion, bathed in the autumn wind and warm sun, quite at ease.The two didn't return to Yikun Palace together until it was time for dinner.

That night, Nian Xilan, who was always used to going to bed early, unexpectedly suffered from insomnia.When Kangxi finished reviewing the memorial and returned to the dormitory, he saw Nian Xilan sitting on the bed with her brocade quilt in her arms, her black eyebrows were slightly frowned, her eyes were melancholy, and she looked worried and confused.

Kangxi stepped forward, gently hugged Nian Xilan into his arms, kissed Nian Xilan's fair forehead, and asked with concern: "It's late at night, why isn't Lan'er still asleep?"

Nian Xilan rested her head on Kangxi's warm chest, and replied sullenly: "I originally planned to rest earlier, but I don't know why, I feel very tired and sleepy, and I can't even open my eyes. Opened, sore and painful, very uncomfortable, but the concubine can't sleep..."

Kangxi gently patted Nian Xilan on the back, and said softly, "If Lan'er has something on his mind, you can tell me. As the saying goes, one person counts the short, and two people count the long. Maybe after Lan'er discusses with me, Then you will find that these things that are bothering you are not really big things at all, and it is not worth your troubles for them."

Nian Xilan was silent for a long while, then suddenly raised her head, she opened her mouth a few times before she asked the question that troubled her all night, "Your Majesty, do you really mind the scars on my wrist? Please don't ask the emperor to comfort me. Tell some lies against your will... Although I am very scared in my heart, I still want to hear what the emperor has in mind!"
