Qing court ladies

Chapter 43
Suyue walked out of the room, the warm sunlight made Suyue's eyeballs hurt, when she closed her eyes, she couldn't feel a trace of warmth, some of them were all cold "It's so cold", the bone-chilling cold, just like when she was lying on the bluestone floor when she was pregnant Similarly, the despair and helplessness in the heart are infinitely magnified, and the cold air comes out from the heart. The cold people don't even have the courage to live.

Li Dequan knew what Suyue meant by being cold, but he didn't do it well enough, so he asked, "Suyue, what do you want to do?"

Su Yue smiled wryly, a court lady is so frightening, if she is the master, how would she live? "I am still Su Yue, a court lady, but I will protect the people around me. Manager Li, Su Yue made you feel so sorry... , now let Su Yue grow up by herself."

Li Dequan nodded, and supported Suyue to go to Qianqing Palace. Today's matter must be told to Lord Longevity, and there is no way to hide it.

Kangxi was processing the memorial, watching Li Dequan stepping forward with the help of the pale Suyue, frowned slightly, put down the ink pen, and waited.

"Slaves (slaves) greet the Long Live God, and the Long Live God is auspicious." Su Yue and Li Dequan both saluted.

"Get up" Kangxi waited.

"My slave is dead, please punish me, Lord Long Live. This slave disobeyed the imperial decree and informed Su Yue of poisoning. Qiu Xi, who poisoned Su Yue, also bit his tongue and committed suicide." Li Dequan prostrated himself on the ground.

Kangxi slapped the dragon case and yelled, "My words, you are becoming more and more careless, and you dare to resist the imperial decree." Kangxi stepped down from the dragon chair and kicked Li Dequan on the shoulder.

Su Yue stepped forward to stand in front of Li Dequan, and looked at Kangxi pleadingly, "Long Live Lord, you can't blame Manager Li for this matter, not to mention, Long Live Lord, Manager Li can hide it from Su Yue for a lifetime. Nobody told the slaves anymore."

Li Dequan was kicked down, knelt down again, watched Suyue flicking the handkerchief, and hurriedly retreated.

"Hmph, what you say now is more sacred than my imperial decree." Kangxi asked with an angry smile when he saw the actions between Su Yue and Li Dequan.

Su Yue felt uncomfortable now, and begged softly, "Long Live Lord, slaves are nothing more than foxes pretending to be tigers, what is useful is not slaves' words, but the dragon's power that slaves rely on."

Kangxi looked at Suyue's pale face, and his anger dissipated. Now that he knows what he shouldn't know, it's okay. Although he was afraid of scaring Suyue, it's not a bad thing for Suyue to experience it. "You have something on your mind, you know Who is it?" Although Kangxi didn't know the ins and outs, Kangxi imagined that a court lady wouldn't do this.

Su Yue nodded, and told Kangxi about the cause and effect, and said that Qiuxi died, and tears flowed down again.

Kangxi looked at Suyue's tears and seemed to be unable to stand still. He picked up Suyue and went to Dongnuange, put it on the couch before asking, "Are you going to tell me who she is, you want to solve it yourself"

Su Yue knew that she couldn't hide her thoughts from Kang Xi, "Yes, she harmed Qiu Xi, I want to seek justice for Qiu Xi"

Kangxi put his arms around Su Yue and sighed, "I teach you strategies in the hope that you can see through the detachment. If you use these to get caught up in that conspiracy, it is not my original intention. If you retaliate with an eye, it is not difficult, but So what is the difference between you and them, I am the emperor, there is nothing wrong with being trapped in it, but I don’t want you to be trapped in it, I want you to be happy, there is no happiness in it.”

Su Yue raised her right hand, clenched her fist tightly, and her eyes were blurred with tears, "I don't think so, but this hand has Qiu Xi's blood, it's so hot, if I can't get justice for her, I will never be happy in this life."

Kangxi wrapped Suyue's fist in his big hand, "I'm here to deal with it, you look good"

Su Yue turned sideways and looked at Kangxi with a firm expression, "Long Live Lord, you protect this servant, and this servant understands, but this servant wants to grow up by herself, and the people around this servant want to protect herself"

Kangxi looked at Suyue, he wanted Suyue to grow up like this, but the road to growth was so difficult, Kangxi was good at covering Suyue's eyes, what he didn't want to see, still appeared.

Suyue relies on Kangxi. I don't know when Suyue got used to relying on Kangxi and firmly believed that Kangxi would protect her. In fact, if she wanted to do this, how could it not be because of Kangxi's friendship with her.It's just this friendship, when will it end?
"Long live Lord, I have a request from my maidservant. Please ask Long live Lord to bury Qiuxi generously. It is also good to give a grave. There is also Qiuxi's family. Long live Lord think of a way to protect them well." Qiuxi's only wish, Suyue will definitely do it for her. She is done.

Kangxi answered "OK" in a low voice

On February 30st, the [-]th year of Kangxi, Kangxi issued an edict to the bachelors and others: the important place of the capital, the people's merchants, gathered from all directions.Inside and outside the capital, there must be special responsibilities in the administration, and only by eliminating rape and thieves can the merchants and people have peace.Today, the area inside the city is under the command and management of the infantry. Although the outside of the city is under the jurisdiction of the Third Patrol Battalion, it is also under the jurisdiction of the Supervising and Arresting Yamen of the Ministry of War.The internal and external responsibilities are different and inconsistent with each other. When there is a robbery case, it is difficult to investigate.Afterwards, the third battalion was patrolled and commanded by the infantry.In this way, the inspection inside and outside the capital will be carried out as a whole, with specific responsibilities, which will help eliminate robbers and calm the people.On the [-]th, after Jiuqing and others complied with the decree, they handed over the supervision and arrest, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the management of the five cities to the infantry commander for management.The fugitives and other criminals captured by the third battalion were patrolled, and the commander was ordered to transfer the criminals to the supervision and arrest, and the Ministry of Punishment ended.At the same time, it was exchanged for the seal of "Admiral Nine Gates Infantry Patrol and Commander of the Third Battalion".Since then, it has been known as "Admiral's Nine Gates".

Su Yue looked at the papers, and after Kangxi had approved them, she put them together and handed them to Liang Jiugong when there was a stack.

"Suyue, Dongmeixue is still there, make me a cup of tea." Kangxi put the teacup away in disgust, and focused on the book.

Su Yue watched Liang Jiugong come in again with a stack of bags, frowned slightly, took the bag and replied, "Long Live Lord, there are things, but it's too late now." Kangxi was reviewing the memorials every day until the third shift, and the admiral Jiumen had just been appointed, and Kangxi became more and more busy.

Kangxi glanced at the memorial, "Forget it, let's forget about today, Su Yue, go and rest too."

"Your servant obeys, your servant will leave." Su Yue bowed and left, glanced at Xinuang Pavilion, and left with a smile.

The day before yesterday, someone in the imperial garden danced all over the city, and now she was waiting in the Xinuang Pavilion, Su Yue remembered the shock of that day, and smiled brighter and brighter.Thinking to himself, this Qiuhe is getting more and more thoughtful.After being cold for so many days, he turned over.

"Are you happy for her or what?" Gui'an sent Suyue to rest, looked at Suyue with a smile on her face, and asked strangely.

"Of course I'm happy for her. After being cold for so many days, I can still be favored by the Lord Long Live, not to mention that we were both working together in the past, I still wish her well." Su Yue looked at Gui'an with a smile, and stirred the handkerchief in her hand.

Gui'an nodded, looked at Suyue's courtyard gate, bid farewell to Suyue and left.

"You have a good appetite today." Seeing that Su Yue had already had her second bowl of white fungus soup, Aunt Rong asked with a smile.

Su Yue didn't realize that her mouth was full of bitterness these days, she tasted sweet ones and ate more, she didn't have any other meanings, "It's not that the white fungus soup from Mammy is delicious, and how many bitter medicines you have poured into me, it is rare to have sweet ones." Eat, can you eat more?"

Aunt Rong gouged out Su Yue's eyes, and stopped giving Su Yue a lot of words, "That's how I remembered, you can't eat too much sweets, go to sleep."

Su Yue suddenly remembered, and secretly blamed herself for being talkative, watching Rong Rong take away the things, with a sad face.It's a pity that Nanny Rong is immune to Suyue's trick, so Suyue can only lie on the table dejectedly and pretend to be pitiful.

After Nanny Rong left, Su Yue finished grooming, changed her clothes and lay down on the imperial concubine's couch. In the deep night, Su Yue read a book under the lamp, not daring to fall asleep all night.

Such a quiet night always reminds Suyue of what Concubine Tong Guifei said to her back then. Back then, Suyue firmly believed that she would never hurt the people around her again, but after that child, Qiuxi's life was also involved. Yinzhen's increasingly indifferent face and Yinhu's scars made Suyue wonder if she had done something wrong.

If she had listened to the words of the imperial concubine back then, maybe she is not too free now, but Yinzhen and Yinhu can grow up beside her, and with her protection, Yinzhen will never become the cold-faced person now, and Yinhu will also grow up. There is no need to work harder than others to learn those kung fu, which will cause scars all over her body. Even if Yinhu insists on learning, at least she can still give him medicine, but now, she can only watch all this happen.

If she became a noble concubine, Qiuxi would not be involved in this matter because of her involvement. Maybe in two years, she would be given a decree to leave the palace, often accompany her parents at her knees, have a family, and have children in groups.

And her parents can also invite an edict to come to the palace to meet each other every month, instead of seeing each other only once a year.

Could it be that all her attachments are just her own selfishness, and the source of everything lies in her refusal to accept her fate, so God played her like this.

As the sky was getting brighter, Su Yue put down the unturned page of the book in her hand, exercised her muscles and bones, and then went to fetch water and wash herself. Since Qiu Xi left, Su Yue couldn't sleep at night, couldn't sleep well on her pillow, and when she closed her eyes, Qiu Xi's mouth fell. The appearance of vomiting blood, the blood-stained hands are so hot that people want to chop them off, and sleeping is also a nightmare surprise, and the whole body is sweating.So Su Yue didn't dare to sleep anymore, and sat alone at dawn every night.
