The Woman Behind Kangxi: The Biography of Virtuous Concubine

Chapter 61
Suishou Hall.

Suishou Hall is a corner of Changchun Palace, one of the six West Palaces inside, and it has been moved here since An Yi, the Zhaojia family, became a concubine.At this moment, she was quite distraught, her cuteness and sweetness in front of people in the past seemed to have disappeared, the ground was covered with fragments of porcelain, most of which were smashed by her when she vented, and a few knelt on both sides All the maids looked at her in panic, but no one came to persuade her.

Although her mood had calmed down a bit at this moment, she was still very angry, with a heavy breath in her chest, she suddenly slapped the table heavily, vaguely remembering that Fang Fu standing behind her at that time was Yi Concubine and Duan Concubine: Guo Luo Luo Shi At that time, Shu Yu thought to get rid of her once and for all, but unexpectedly let her make a comeback. Although she had been very careful in courting her in the past few years, it was hard not to be jealous of herself because of that matter; She is very jealous and pungent, the emperor likes her straightforward temper, that's why she made her a concubine after giving birth to the second daughter of the emperor. Now that her limelight has suddenly overshadowed her, can she not trick herself?
He thought for a while that both of them might attack him, but he was just not sure who it was.Although there was a stove behind him, making the room as warm as a spring day, but the coolness on my back was deep, penetrating into the marrow of my bones.

She gritted her teeth, biting her lips until a little bit of blood oozes out, and then said bitterly: "No matter who did it, I will never let it go!"

Yonghe Palace.

That night, Kangxi came with his shoulders. These years, he rarely went to the concubines' palaces, because he felt that going to the harem was a waste of time, so he asked them to go to the Qianqing Palace, and sometimes he sent them out without leaving anyone. Still get up and work.

Today, walking on the palace road leading to the Yonghe Palace, a crescent moon like a hook is shrouded in the night mist.Kangxi suddenly remembered Li Houzhu's "Bodhisattva Man", looked at the bright yellow shoes on his feet, the dragon embroidered with gold thread was shining dimly, isn't it just a pair of golden lace shoes?

Kangxi laughed out loud, causing the followers to feel that the emperor is a little strange today, why?Is it so fun to go to Yonghe Palace?

Ningde stopped under the pear tree. Ningde had already heard the announcement and came out of the hall to greet him. Kangxi stood beside the shoulder, watching Ningde running down the steps lightly, and said angrily: "I'm pregnant, so I'd better go with someone else." Like a child, let me see how you will teach my children in the future! You will still be as frizzy as you!"

Ning De rolled his eyes at him: "It's not up to me to discipline this kid anyway, if the emperor doesn't like it, then find him a good teacher."

"Yo, are you angry?" Xuan Ye turned his head and looked at Ning De with a smile, "Come on, let me see, ah, you are so angry!"

Ning De turned around and spat at him, then ran away with a smile.Xuanye shouted repeatedly from behind: "Be careful, be careful!"

Approaching the inner room, Xuan Ye pushed open the door, and said mockingly: "I have so many concubines, and you are the one who makes me worry the least, and you are still restless when you are pregnant with a child."

With no outsiders present, Ningde let go of his restraints, and it was rare to regain his girlish nature. He said with a playful smile: "Got it, old mother, my mother-in-law doesn't nag like you."

Just as Xuan Ye was about to retort, he suddenly felt something like a ball of white ball rushing towards him, rolling to his feet and biting the hem of his trousers, refusing to let go.Looking down, what is it if it's not a bear?
Ning De was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the little bear's behavior, he clapped his hands and smiled and said, "It's such a good little cat, it knows how to vent its anger on its master, and brought it back to tell your elder sister Liuli to feed the fish for you."

Xuan Ye smiled helplessly: "That's all, you one person and one beast unite to bully me, I don't count villains if I beat you, can you still reason with a cat?"

Ning De smiled complacently, and then Xuan Ye continued to say: "However, since you are pregnant, it is not appropriate to keep a cat by your side. Now I regret that I shouldn't give you this Wu Yingxiong."

Ning De was still taken aback when he first heard it, and first replied: "Wu Yingxiong, it's Xiaoxiong." But after he finished speaking, he lowered his head and thought about it, but realized that Xuan Ye's words were actually very reasonable, and couldn't help hesitating for a moment: "But...but ....I really miss the little bear, it's been with me these days..."

Xuan Ye comforted: "Well, let me raise this beast for you for a few days first, and then return it to you after you give birth, okay?"

"Then you are not allowed to bully it, you are not allowed to abuse it, you are not allowed..."

Xuan Ye interrupted her: "Where are so many not allowed, if you are disobedient, I will not give Wu Yingxiong anything to eat every day, and starve to death."

Ning De curled his lips, pretending to be pitiful: "You will bully me."

Xuan Ye scolded with a smile: "Girl, I don't know who used you like this!"

While talking, he walked casually in the room, and saw that there seemed to be a few more scrolls in the blue and white Shuanglong Xizhu painting vat in the official kiln, so he reached out to pick it up, and asked casually: "I will come in a few days, it seems that your collection is so big. There are a few of them, they must be good things, let me feast my eyes too." As the scroll unfolded, Xuan Ye took a look, and suddenly "ah", his face changed slightly.

Ning De took a step forward and said with a smile: "It turns out that the emperor had the same reflection as me, and was about to return to you. This was sent by Concubine Rong in the morning when I was away. There are 5 pictures in total, and all of them are high-quality goods. I am afraid that things will happen." It's not easy, so I didn't dare to act rashly, but now that you are here, I dare to ask you, should I accept this painting or not?"

Xuan Ye opened them one by one, with no expression on his face, but an indescribable chill in his eyes. Seeing his expression when he was dealing with politics, Ning De was worried, wondering if he had done something wrong, He just stared at him in a daze and took a closer look: it was already pitch black outside, and the glazed lamp was burning in the inner hall, half of Xuan Ye's face was hidden in the shadow in the flickering lamp, and the cold moonlight slanted in from outside, According to the contemptuous and cold smile on the corner of his mouth, although he knew that this matter was none of his business, a chill still arose in his heart and ran through his whole body.

Xuan Ye looked up and saw the expression of Ningde Qiqi, and smiled Wanran: "I didn't expect that our little Ningde, who is not afraid of anything, would be afraid sometimes. Is my expression not that scary?"

Ningde was a little uneasy, ignored his jokes, and asked in a low voice, "Is this my concubine doing nothing wrong?"

Xuan Ye hugged Ning De: "You didn't do anything wrong, of course you didn't do anything wrong, and I still want to praise you for your good work! You can accept these paintings with peace of mind. I already know this in my heart."

Ning De was still a little worried: "Where is Concubine Rong?"

Xuan Ye smiled, but the smile was a bit mean: "You just take advantage of her, she is just being used by others."

Ning De nodded silently.
