Chapter 226

"Master, you are finally back."

After Shuxuan came out from Liu Shuxue, she told Xiaobai to wait there to report to Kangxi. After returning, the two went back together, and then she went to Liu Feng and told him about Liu Shuxue.

It's just that she didn't expect that when Shuxuan came back from the outside, she would see Xiaobai anxiously walking up and down the yard not far from her. When she saw Shuxuan, she hurried up to speak.

"Xiaobai, didn't I tell you to wait for me in the yard? Seeing how anxious you are now, what happened again?"

Seeing Xiaobai's anxious appearance, Shuxuan asked a little strangely.

"Master, not long after you left, Kangxi came to look for you, and then he didn't see you, and was angry in the room! I thought something was wrong, so I quickly hid."

"Kangxi is here? What is he doing here again? Is he really free?"

Shuxuan frowned when she heard that Kangxi was running over again.

While talking, usually go to the yard.

"I don't know either, but when I came out, I saw his face was ugly."

Xiaobai followed behind Shuxuan, also looking confused.

"Forget it! No matter what's going on with him! Just go and see. I don't believe he can do anything to me!"

Shuxuan thought for a while, but really couldn't figure out why Kangxi came to her at this time.

"My concubine is finally willing to come back! It really made me wait a lot!"

As soon as Shuxuan returned to the courtyard, she saw Kangxi sitting at the door with a gloomy face. Before she could speak, Kangxi spoke in a strange manner.

"What's wrong with the emperor? Why are you so angry? Did someone make the emperor angry again?"

Seeing that Kangxi was angry, Shuxuan quickly said with a smile.

She also knows that in this era, it is a bit out of line for a concubine to run around, but is there no way?
"Who can make me angry? Who will make me angry? It's just that I wanted to visit someone when I was busy, but I didn't expect that person to be busier than me! It's really incompetent!"

Kangxi is now in a fit of anger, and when he heard Shuxuan's words, he still said sarcastically.

"What is the emperor talking about? You work hard all day for state affairs, and you don't even have time to rest. If you are incompetent, is there anyone else who is competent?"

Shuxuan looked at Kangxi's angry appearance, and quickly said compliments.

After all, Liu Shuxue still needs Kangxi's help next!If the two offended now, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?
Although Shuxuan felt that she could get things done without relying on Kangxi, since she promised Liu Shuxue to ask Kangxi for help, she must not break her promise!

Besides, what Shuxuan said was not a lie, the current Kangxi didn't have the bad problems of his later years, and he could indeed be regarded as a good emperor.

"Hmph! Do you think that if you just say a few good words like this, I can ignore the fact that you left without permission? Do you know that you broke the palace rules by sneaking out like this."

Although Kangxi was still angry, when he heard Shuxuan's compliment, his anger also dropped a lot. After all, he wanted to be a good emperor and live forever, which was what he expected most, and now Shuxuan said that it was tantamount to He affirmed him, so his tone of voice became better.

"Your Majesty, we are not in the palace now, and concubines are not breaking the palace rules! Besides, concubines have serious business to do when they go out this time, and they are not sneaking out to play. Don't worry about it, your majesty." Well!"

As soon as Shuxuan heard Kangxi's words, she knew that he was not so angry now, so she hurriedly continued.

"Business? What kind of business is it that made you run out so eagerly? You don't even have time to notify me?"

As soon as Shuxuan mentioned this, Kangxi couldn't help but get angry again.

"Your Majesty, it's because of my second sister? Wasn't she framed before? So I went out this time to find someone to investigate this matter. It's not without reason!"

Seeing that Kangxi was getting angry again, Shuxuan quickly stated her purpose, believing that he would be able to control his emotions after hearing this.

"This? Then why didn't you tell me before going out? Besides, didn't I say that I would have people investigate this matter thoroughly? If you go to someone to investigate this matter privately, you don't believe that I can solve this problem Is this thing clear?"

Sure enough, after listening to Shuxuan's words, Kangxi suppressed the anger that had already burst out.

After all, someone will frame Liu Shuxue this time, and there must be Kangxi's reasons in it. Kangxi has experienced this since he was a child, so he won't fail to understand, but what makes Kangxi angry now is that Shuxuan ran out without even saying hello. , Does she really not believe that she can find out this matter?

"Your majesty, where did you go? Of course the concubine believes in the emperor! It's just that the emperor is so busy these days, how can the concubine let the emperor worry about these things? Naturally, I must find a way to help the emperor reduce some of the burden!"

Shuxuan looked at Kangxi's flattery and said, anyway, you don't need money to say good things, so why not do it because you can achieve your own goals by the way?

"Then who can you go to find out? As far as I know, this Yan Chang didn't have any enemies before, so most of the people who instigated people to attack Yan Chang were people in the harem. Don't you still have the ability to find out?" this?"

After hearing Shuxuan's explanation, Kangxi understood her behavior, but then he had a new problem.

"Your Majesty, of course I can't investigate things in the palace. But isn't this midwife invited outside? It has nothing to do with the palace. I just sent someone to check on the midwife's family members to see if they have Is there anything abnormal, or has been in contact with any special person, so we can see if we can find out the main messenger behind the scenes."

Shuxuan knew what Kangxi was thinking when she saw Kangxi's face. Although Kangxi was still young, his suspicious temperament was cultivated early in the morning. Shuxuan knew that she had to find a good reason this time. Otherwise, if it aroused Kangxi's suspicion, the next thing would be troublesome.

And thinking of Liu Shuxue's talk about asking Kangxi to confess about her shops, Shuxuan had to find a way to divert the topic.

"You have a good idea. Since you have asked someone to investigate, what is the result now?"

"How can it be so fast? The concubine has just delivered the news, and even if there is a result, it should be a few days later!"

Shuxuan was also a little speechless to Kangxi's question, could it be that his subordinates moved so fast?He could find out the result as soon as it happened?
"Didn't Yan Changzai be plotted against yesterday? Why didn't you take any action yesterday and let someone investigate it until today?"

"Is the emperor suspicious of the concubine?"

When Shuxuan heard Kangxi's words, she knew that he was suspicious again, but it was just right, so she could tell him about Liu Shuxue's shop.

"Why would I doubt Aifei? I'm just curious, so I just asked."

Kangxi was indeed suspicious about this matter, but when he thought of Shuxuan's ability, he felt that keeping Shuxuan would be useful in the future, so he only said it tactfully.

"Actually, I shouldn't have said this, but now that the emperor has doubts, I have to say it."

Although Shuxuan wanted to talk about the shop with Kangxi, she couldn't say so directly. After all, Kangxi didn't know that Liu Shuxue already knew that he was following and investigating Liu Shuxue's affairs, so in his opinion, Liu Shuxue's shops should still be hidden in the dark. Well, if Shuxuan just said it directly, maybe with Kangxi's suspicious nature, he would still doubt Shuxuan's intentions!
So Shuxuan looked at Kangxi with a troubled look and said, "Actually, this time the concubine is out of the palace and asked to investigate these matters. It's not convenient for the second sister to go out now, so I let me pass the news on her behalf."

"Who is Yan Chang? Wasn't she just a concubine when she was at home? Does she still have her own power? Can you help her investigate these things?"

As soon as Kangxi heard what Shuxuan said, he knew that Shuxuan was going out to contact Liu Shuxue's subordinates this time, but he thought that sister Shuxuan didn't know that he already knew, so he also pretended to be said in shock.

"Where is there any power? It's just that before entering the palace, my second sister opened some shops outside. There are more people in this shop. Now their boss is almost killed by someone. Let them investigate and have not been able to find out. This matter should be done! After all, they have more people, and it is a little easier to investigate."

Shuxuan knew from Kangxi's expression that he was acting, so Shuxuan also acted with him, isn't it just acting?When who will not be the same.

"But the people in her few shops shouldn't be able to find anything, right? It's not that I look down on them. Although they are quick-spoken, they want to use this kind of family. They must have something to do there. In the hands of the people behind the scenes, with the hands of Yan Chang's staff, it is estimated that there is nothing to investigate."

Kangxi thought that what Shuxuan was talking about was only those shops on Liu Shuxue's face, but after thinking about the fact that there were no people there, he said suspiciously.

"Actually, I only found out today that the shops in my second sister's hands are not the only ones known to everyone, and there are some others. If one or two people are selected from each shop, it will come in handy. There will be more people, and if only one or two people are selected to leave, it will not have any impact on the operation of the store."

Now is the time to fight for acting skills. Shuxuan looked at Kangxi and said with a look of surprise, "I never thought that the second sister is so good, she can open so many stores quietly by changing someone, and Every store is so profitable."

"Yan Changzai is indeed a very smart person. Her talent is rare in the world. It's just a pity that she was born as a daughter. If she were a man, then..."

At the end, Kangxi's voice gradually became quieter, but the pity in his eyes was obvious.

"Your majesty, you don't have to sigh too much! Even if my second sister is a woman, she still has those abilities! If the emperor needs her help, you can go to her! I believe she will definitely I am happy to help the emperor."

When Shuxuan heard that Kangxi felt sorry for Liu Shuxue, she pretended to say it casually, and then realized that she seemed to have said something wrong, covered her mouth, and said in panic, "Ah! It's the concubine's slip of the tongue. Well, what the concubine forgot, people in the harem can’t casually talk about the affairs of the previous dynasty. Just now, the concubine was only thinking about the help the second sister could help the emperor, but she didn’t think of this for a while, and asked the emperor to forget the concubine just now Say what you said!"

"I know what's on your mind, and you're also thinking about it for me, but it's an ancestor's rule that the harem doesn't discuss politics, so don't say this to anyone in the future."

After listening to Shuxuan's words, Kangxi was quiet for a while, looking at Shuxuan, he didn't know what to think, until he felt uncomfortable looking at Shuxuan, and then he opened his mouth to speak.

"The concubine knows, and the concubine will not talk nonsense in the future."

Shuxuan nodded docilely. Anyway, she had already told Kangxi what she had said, and had already planted a seed in Kangxi's heart, making him think that Liu Shuxue was someone who could help him solve problems. What embarrassing things, when you want to talk to others, you will think of Liu Shuxue.

It's just that what Shuxuan has to do now is to deepen Kangxi's feeling for Liu Shuxue, so she thought about it and said to Kangxi, "Your Majesty, although the second sister can't help the Emperor with the matter of the previous dynasty, there are still many This place can help the emperor!"

"You just hope that Yan Changzai can help me so much? Don't you think of helping me yourself? Or are you unwilling to help me?"

When Kangxi heard Shuxuan kept telling it how capable Liu Shuxue was, without him mentioning herself at all, Kangxi felt a little unhappy again.

"Why wouldn't concubines be willing to help the emperor? But the second younger sister is more powerful! Concubines are not good at other things that need to use their brains except for their slightly higher force value. If the emperor wants concubines Concubine to help, at most the emperor will bring concubine with him when he goes out in the future, so that concubine can still protect the emperor."

When Shuxuan heard Kangxi's words, she didn't know what he was thinking, so she could only pretend to be wronged and looked at Kangxi and said.

Anyway, Kangxi likes to go out so much, and the world is not safe now, so in order to protect Kangxi, it is best for Shuxuan to follow him when he leaves the Forbidden City, so that she can take action in time if there is any danger.

It's just that if Kangxi doesn't take her with her, she can only follow secretly by herself, but she is obviously going to protect Kangxi, so it's too shameful to be sneaky like this?So she told Kangxi like this.

"Haha... So Concubine Ai said so much, she wanted me to take Ai Concubine with me when I went out! Concubine Ai, don't worry, as long as I can bring someone with me in the future, I will definitely take you with me."

Who knew that Kangxi laughed excitedly after listening to Shuxuan's words, and he didn't know what was going on in Kangxi's brain circuit. , so Shu Xuan couldn't refute what he said.

Thinking of this, Shuxuan felt aggrieved, but had nowhere to vent.
