The favored imperial concubine

Chapter 90

When Kangxi saw Li Mingshan sizing up Nian Xilan blatantly and ignorant of etiquette, and then uttered wild and frivolous words, he was immediately enraged.With a look from Kangxi, a guard rushed forward, gagged Li Mingshan's mouth neatly, and dragged Li Mingshan and his entourage down.

Kangxi glanced at Yinzhen coldly, and snorted coldly: "You can recognize that shameless guy just now, what is his identity?"

Yinzhen's heart trembled, and he didn't dare to hide anything, and quickly replied respectfully: "This man Li Mingshan is the younger brother of his son's concubine, Li Shi. Since he only loves poetry, calligraphy and painting on weekdays, so after he was selected as a scholar, he will be a scholar. Tried and failed."

Kangxi snorted coldly, and said disdainfully: "This person is unworthy of reuse. Even if he is lucky enough to pass the exam, he is just a waste of a corpse!"

Seeing that Kangxi blocked Li Mingshan's official career with a few words, Yinzhen didn't dare to say a word to explain Li Mingshan.What's more, Yinzhen knows that Li Mingshan really likes poetry, calligraphy and painting as Kangxi said.Yinzhen only hopes that Kangxi will not directly put Li Mingshan to death because of a moment of anger.In Yinzhen's eyes, the execution of a Li Mingshan is a trivial matter, and if it affects Kangxi's reputation for benevolence, it is not worth it.

In fact, Kangxi also knew in his heart that although Li Mingshan offended Nian Xilan with his reckless words, which made him very displeased, but the crime was not worthy of death. his life.However, in any case, Kangxi's original intention to smile at Bo Jiaren has been completely disrupted.Therefore, he just confessed a few words casually, and hurriedly bid farewell to Brother Yinzhen, took Nian Xilan into the carriage, and headed for the Forbidden City.

Yinzhen watched Kangxi and Nian Xilan's carriage galloping away under the guard of dozens of guards, and then recalled Kangxi's almost instinctive actions to protect Nian Xilan when the crisis happened just now, he couldn't help but frowned, and felt in his heart An inexplicable worry arose.

Yinzhen looked at his fourth brother's worried appearance, and couldn't help but speak out to persuade him: "Don't worry about Li Shi's incompetent younger brother, that kid is ignorant all day long, and only thinks about romance and poetry. Painting. It is also a good thing for him to learn some lessons this time."

Yinzhen thought for a while, touched his chin, shook his head and sighed: "Although Nianshi is indeed good-looking, the old man cares too much about Nianshi..."

Yinzhen narrowed his eyes slightly, but he didn't reprimand his younger brother for being ignorant as usual, but just silently looked at the direction of the carriage leaving, with a gloomy face, not knowing what to think.

Sitting in the carriage, Nian Xilan recalled that whenever she was about to greet the Yinzhen brothers, Kangxi seemed to have unintentionally changed the topic, and then remembered what the old man who sold candied haws just now said, and couldn't help but rise in her heart Fear and uneasiness are afraid of leaving a thorn in Kangxi's heart that cannot be removed, which will affect the future fate of the children in his womb.

Nian Xilan was thinking about something, while eating candied haws, she accidentally ate many hawthorns wrapped in frosting sugar.

Kangxi was also thinking about his own thoughts, and didn't pay attention to Nian Xilan's movements for a while.When she came back to her senses, she found that there was only half a bunch of candied haws left in Nian Xilan's hand, so she couldn't help snatching the candied haws from Nian Xilan's hand anxiously, and asked anxiously, "Why didn't I look at you for a while, so you just ate it?" So many hawthorns? Have you forgotten Liu Shengfang’s advice that pregnant women should not eat too many hawthorns, otherwise it will be harmful to the fetus in the womb!”

As Kangxi spoke, he carefully looked at Nian Xilan's face, and asked worriedly: "How do you feel? Do you feel uncomfortable in your stomach? I will return to Qianqing Palace in a while, and I will tell you that Liu Shengfang will come over to give you a careful pulse diagnosis, so that you I'm more at ease."

Nian Xilan felt Kangxi's care and love from the bottom of her heart, her eyes turned red, she stretched out her hand to take Kangxi's warm palm, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, don't be angry with my concubine. Candied haws!"
