Kangxi Harem Ⅰ: Green Years

Chapter 197 ([-]) Theory of Grass and Stones in the Royal Garden (Part [-])
Hearing Xuan De's words, Rong'er couldn't help being shocked, she raised her head slightly, and looked at Xuan De, Xuan De still had an easy-going smile on her face, this girl is wise, her words are so similar to what the emperor said back then, Rong'er stared at Xuan De, his eyes didn't leave for a long time.

Xuan De said softly, "However, the scenery of stones lacks vitality. After looking at a stone for a long time, it is always so plain and unremarkable, and you will lose interest. Unlike flowers and plants, they grow differently every year and will have new ideas. With stone as the main scene, I personally feel that it still lacks freshness.”

Rong'er looked at it, feeling a little amazed that she could say such a thing at such a young age.

"Master Rong, did Xuan De say something wrong?" Seeing Rong'er staring at her without speaking, Xuan De asked hurriedly.

Listening to Xuan De's question, Rong'er realized that she had lost her composure. Looking at Xuan De, she really seemed to see herself. Ten years ago, she recited poems with the emperor. Poetry, she was still young at that time, she was a new grass, she could have many aspirations... She felt her heart was trembling slightly.

"Sturdy rocks can't stop grass roots from growing." Rong'er thought, and subconsciously said, "Dechang is here, have you heard that grass is very powerful? In harsh environments, it will take root and grow , unstoppable, even by the hardest stone."

"Stubborn grass grows out of cracks in rocks." Xuande replied with a smile, "Sister is right, but if grass grows in a pile of rocks, no matter how tenacious it is, it can only grow out of cracks in rocks, and this crack in rocks is The gap left by the stone, if there is no gap, no matter how tenacious the grass is, it will not be able to get out."

Rong'er looked at Xuande, she was only 15 years old, Rong'er was nearly ten years older than her, and sighed softly, "It's really rare for you to have such thoughts at such a young age, what you said is right."

"Actually Xuande has read some books since he was a child, but he didn't learn well. My father is a military commander, so he doesn't pay much attention to these things. However, he has a relatively loose discipline over his children, and it also gave me a lot of freedom. I often chat with my brothers. , good or bad, they are all somewhat touched." Xuan De said with a smile.

Rong'er felt the familiar feeling, and thinking about the conversation between the two, she suddenly felt that these new concubines were like new grass with vigorous vigor, while these old concubines were like stones without freshness. And the gaps between these stones made the new grass grow, heh, Rong'er laughed at herself, even if they didn't want to have gaps, they couldn't be completely closed, and just like Xuan De said, As long as there is such a gap, the new grass will grow well. Whether it is what she said "hard rocks can hardly stop grass roots from growing", or what De Changzai said "stubborn grass grows from the cracks in rocks", doesn't it all explain this truth? ?
Rong'er stood up gently, looked at Xuande and said softly, "It's nice to be young, cherish it."

"Mr. Rong, are you feeling well?" Xuan De asked with concern as she didn't know what Rong'er was thinking, seeing Rong'er's face turn pale.

Rong'er shook his head and smiled, "It's nothing, it's just that I've been tired recently, I'll just go back and have a rest, then I'll take my leave first."

"Respectfully send off my sister." Xuan De also got up and said.

Rong'er looked back at Xuan De before leaving the pavilion, "It's a pleasure chatting with you, we will walk around more in the future, we will stay together in this palace for a lifetime."

Xuan De nodded and replied with a smile, "Naturally, Xuan De will continue to pester my sister a lot in the future, so don't dislike her."

Rong'er pursed her lips and smiled, nodded lightly, without replying, she led Su Ya out of the pavilion.

Standing alone in the pavilion, Xuan De watched Rong'er call Princess Rongxian, and walked towards the gate of the garden holding the princess's little hand, with a smile on her face, Rongguiren...it is this Rongguiren, as the palace population said It is said that the woman who gave birth to the most children for the emperor, the woman who has won the emperor's favor for ten years, this should be the first time they have been alone together. Frankly speaking, she feels...not bad, this honorable person makes her feel kind... …
