Chapter 222: On Flowers

Recently, the emperor has gone to Kunning Palace more often, and it can be seen from the records of Tong history that the emperor stayed in Kunning Palace for seven or eight days in January. This point, in addition to the harem concubines cares about, Chang Kang, the head of the inner chamberlain, is the most concerned.

Who the emperor favors in his heart and where he wants to go when he is tired, as the most intimate chamberlain, must be clear, which is also related to his importance by the emperor.

For example, at the moment, when Emperor Chongde looked at the names of the concubines and didn't think about where to go. Chang Kang bent down and bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, the slave heard that there are a few exotic flowers in Kunning Palace, which only bloom at night, and they are in full bloom these days. Why don't you go up and take a look? ”

After listening to Chang Kang's words, Emperor Chongde nodded: "Just Kunning Palace, I want to see what kind of flowers it is." ”

His face was not happy, and his tone was flat, but the speed of the review was obviously much faster. Seeing this, Chang Kang knew that he had judged correctly, and the silver sent by Kunning Palace was received.

Before the royal driver came to Kunning Palace, Xie Zi waited with the palace maid. At this time, she was dressed very simply, wearing a red regular dress, only with gold patterns on the neckline of the hem, and no heavy and luxurious ornaments on her head, only an ordinary phoenix hairpin.

Such casual makeup, but there is a strange attraction, all because Xie Zi's face, a very charming face, makes people dazzle. No wonder Emperor Chongde's eyes flashed as soon as he saw her.

"The concubines welcome the emperor......" Xie Zi said half-kneeling, his voice crisp and soft, as if scratching people's hearts.

Then she looked up at Emperor Chongde, and her eyes were full of affection. It seems that the vastness of heaven and earth and the abundance of all things cannot enter her eyes, and there is only one in her eyes.

Seeing such a Xie Zi. Emperor Chongde's throat tightened, and then Lang Lang smiled: "Hurry up!" I heard that there are a few exotic flowers here in Kunning Palace, so I took a look. ”

He took a step forward, stretched out his hand to help Xie Zi, and strode into Kunning Palace. After seeing the furnishings of Kunning Palace, his brows stretched even more, and his smile deepened.

After Xie Zi entered the Kunning Palace, the layout of the Kunning Palace has also changed, no longer only majestic and stable, but also more idle and comfortable. This is also one of the reasons why Emperor Chongde likes to come to Kunning Palace.

Chang Kang, who was with him, saw the furnishings here. Looking at Xie Zi's makeup again, I thought that this successor is really powerful, no wonder the emperor is so favored.

The queen is the head of the harem, and most of the people selected are Kun Shun and dun people. But actually. Majesty and stability are mostly boring. Most of the people who have Feng Laiyi have to put up a shelf. How could such a palace and such a queen win the favor of the emperor? The emperor is facing the major affairs of the court all day long, and what he needs most is relaxation.

In this palace. A lot of people know this, but how many people can actually do it? Especially the queen, her status restricts her to be dignified and steady.

Queen Xie Zi did exactly the opposite, so she won the emperor's favor. It's really strange, this person who was stable and square at the beginning, has become more and more charming in the past two years, which shows that the palace can change a person's heart the most.

And in front, Xie Zi seemed to say something funny, which made Emperor Chongde laugh "haha". It is not unreasonable for Emperor Chongde to like Xie Zi, in addition to her young beauty and charming style, but also because she did not give birth to an imperial child, which reassures him.

The queen's heir is a major event of the country, and Emperor Chongde is happy that Xie Zi is not pregnant, which sounds incredible, but this is the truth. Without the emperor, there is no need to plan anything, and there will be no intrigue, so that the face is hateful. It is human nature to seek power for your loved ones, but Emperor Chongde is tired of these battles.

Seeking power and fighting for power are not things that harem women should do, they obediently wait for pets/luck, it's fine. Over the years, he has paid more and more attention to the third child, but he has gradually alienated the concubine, which is the reason.

Xie Zi listened to Emperor Chongde's laughter, looked at him angrily, and said angrily: "Didn't the emperor come to see the flowers?" Why do you keep teasing the concubine? The concubine will take you to see the flowers. ”

Playing with a flower gun, this is a profound technique, Xie Zi has just the right grasp of this, not only hanging on to Emperor Chongde's mind, but also not making him feel debauched/debauched/inferior/cheap.

Emperor Chongde, under the leadership of Xie Zi, saw those few different flowers. In the dim night, those flowers open quietly, the petals are white and yellow, pure and fragrant, like a beauty under the moon.

"I heard from the palace ladies that this flower is very difficult to feed, but a flower only blooms for one night and then withers. With so much effort and so much time, the concubine was uncomfortable when she heard it. But when I think about it, the flowers are rewarded when they bloom, and there is nothing if they wither. Xie Zijiao said with a smile.

Emperor Chongde nodded, his eyes still falling on the strange flower, and he didn't pay much attention to Xie Zi's words.

"And even if it only blooms for one night, don't be afraid, the concubine has her own trick to see it bloom every night. Does the emperor want to hear this clever plan? Xie Zi asked with a smile.

"Oh? Tell me what the trick is? Emperor Chongde said cooperatively, being a little interested.

"When the concubine was in the boudoir, she went to the temple to offer incense, and once heard a slang saying: eggs cannot be put in just one basket. The concubine felt that this was too right, so she asked the palace maids to plant many such flowers, one of which withered, and another one. Your Majesty, this is a clever plan, right? Xie Zi said proudly, and asked Emperor Chongde for a reward.

Emperor Chongde couldn't help but smile: "What kind of trick is this?" Without him, there is only more. However, that slang saying is a bit interesting, eggs can't just be put in one basket, simple words, the truth is very profound.

"Of course it's a clever idea! Not only that, but the concubine also pinched the life gate of this flower, telling it to open whenever it wants. Xie Zi continued, carefully explaining the flower's fate.

At this moment, Emperor Chongde's smile was a little lighter, and he seemed to have grasped something in his mind. The speaker has no intention of listening, this is obviously talking about flowers, but in the ears of Emperor Chongde, every word has a deep meaning, which makes him think of those two names.

Pang Zhen came to report secretly that there was a riot in the Western Frontier Guard, and Emperor Chongde was very satisfied with this, because this gave him the best reason to replace the General of the Western Frontier Guard. Pang Zhen looks simple, but if he goes to Xijiangwei, will he develop into another Fu family?

If Pang Zhen serves as a general, his influence on Longxiwei will disappear slightly, so if you think about it carefully, Xijiangwei and Longxiwei are all related to Pang Zhen, and one basket accounts for so many eggs, is it appropriate?

As for Zhu Youji, he just holds his life, that is his only son Zhu Yang! In the early years, Emperor Chongde often kept Zhu Yang by the side of the princes in the name of accompanying reading, and now Zhu Youji rarely sees his son.

What's more, Emperor Chongde knew that Zhu Youji had been injured and could no longer have children! As long as you hold Zhu Yang, you are not afraid of where Zhu Youji can turn!

He held Zhu Youji, and he held Xijiangwei. He is very confident in this!

After figuring out the connection, Emperor Chongde laughed "haha", and stroked Xie Zi's hand and said, "This is really a wonderful plan!" My Zitong is really amazing! ”

Xie Zi blinked and smiled and accepted Emperor Chongde's praise. After a while, there was a burst of gasps in Kunning Palace.

Emperor Chongde thought about it so much, but he missed one point: that is, Zhu Youji can be mediocre, but he can be the general of the Western Xinjiang Guard? If Dasheng is invaded, what should Xijiangwei do?

Who knows? Anyway, at this moment, the iron-blooded emperor has the fragrance and warm jade in his arms, and he has not yet had time to think of this.

(Extra: At that time, was there a flash in the pan?) (To be continued......)
