Chapter 210
"The emperor tasted this freshly stewed fish maw, it tasted very good."
Shu Wan brought the untouched fish maw on the table to Kangxi.
"Yes, your little kitchen just doesn't smell like the rest of the world."
"The emperor can also let the imperial dining room do this, at this time the weather is hot and humid, and there is always no harm in eating a little light and nourishing things."
Kangxi took the spoon in his hand and paused, "What the imperial dining room makes is not as delicious as what your small kitchen makes." ”
"It's the emperor who has won the award."
"Does the emperor have anything to explain to his concubines at this time?"
"I'm here to see the three children and you, you've been recuperating for a month, how are you doing? Still uncomfortable? ”
"Back to the emperor, it has already gotten better, and the imperial doctor said that he can fully recover after three months."
"Hmm," Kangxi waved his hand, and Liang Jiugong retreated with the people who were waiting in the house.
Kangxi took out a string of incense beads from his sleeve and handed it to Shu Wan, "This is a summer incense bead developed by the Internal Affairs Bureau, wear it and try it." ”
The incense beads have a kind of bitter floral fragrance, and there is a cool feeling on the wrist after wearing it, Shu Wan plucked the beads of the incense beads a few times, and there is already a pulp on it, and there is another sound of gold and stone when it is hit, it should have been played for a while.
"Emperor Xie's love, this incense bead is really cool after wearing it, but this incense bead contains borneol, which matches the medicinal properties of the concubine now, so I am afraid that this string of incense beads will be unblessed."
After speaking, he took off the incense beads and gently pushed them back to Kangxi, "Besides, the concubines stay in Jingyang Palace all day long, and they don't need such good things, so please ask the emperor to take it back." ”
"Don't go too far," Kangxi frowned, stepped forward and grabbed Shu Wan's hand that was about to be withdrawn, "I'm just a pet of Wei, do you use it like this?" ”
When he came the first few times, Shu Wan kept avoiding him, either saying that his arm hurt, or that his leg hurt, anyway, he tried his best to avoid him, and even the things sent by people were all sent to the Internal Affairs Office, he was really tortured thoroughly, and he lost all his good temper.
"The emperor is too careful, what the concubine said is true, the concubine is indeed not suitable to wear this incense bead, and it has nothing to do with Wei agreeing."
Shu Wan's tone was as flat as ever, "Your Majesty, you are the Son of Heaven, you can pamper all the women in this palace, and the concubines have no complaints." ”
She rolled her eyes in her heart, she didn't know what Kangxi wanted to say this time, but don't be those disgusting people's love words, maybe she will spit it out again in front of him.
Although she has long accepted the fact that since she has entered the harem, she must compete with many women for a man, she also knows that as long as she enters the harem, such a beautiful thing as a couple for a lifetime will not happen to her, and she never thought that Kangxi would guard her like a jade.
But she still thinks that it is an extremely disgusting thing for a man who was still talking sweet to her a second ago to turn around and fight with another woman of low status, and even have sex with her.
"I said you weren't allowed to say such things again!"
"Yes, since the emperor doesn't like to hear it, then the concubines don't say it."
Shu Wan poured herself and Kangxi a cup of tea, the fragrance of tea was permeated, the heat was thick, and the two were relatively speechless.
"What the hell do you want?"
"What does the emperor mean by this?"
"What do you mean by me? Do you want to keep messing with me like this? Hide in this Jingyang Palace for the rest of your life and don't see me? ”
Shu Wan smiled lightly, "Isn't it okay?" Maybe the concubine's legs and arms will be abolished from now on, does the emperor want a waste person to be your concubine? ”
Kangxi rubbed his forehead, "What nonsense are you talking about, the imperial doctor has said that you are fine, how can you become a waster?" ”
"Didn't you say that everything is possible," Shu Wan shook her handkerchief, "and the concubine thinks it's good now, anyway, there is a large group of servants waiting for the concubine, and the concubine only needs to give a few orders to do whatever she wants, but it is much better than the previous days." ”
"You're still better than you used to be? How dare you say it? ”
Kangxi grinded his teeth, how can Shu Wan look a little better now, although the doctor said that the fracture is not serious and there is no need to put on a splint, but the arms and legs are wrapped with thick gauze, and she can't even move.
Fortunately, Shu Wan asked the Internal Affairs Office to make a wheelchair, although she no longer has to lie in bed pitifully all day, but she looks pitiful and distressed, and she even said that it is 'much better than the previous days'?
Could it be that he also injured his head when he fell.
Shu Wan snorted, "The concubine just wants to live quietly, isn't it much better than before, she was busy before, and she had to deal with such and such things, hey, the concubine had never found that the decoration of this Jingyang Palace was so good-looking, the atmosphere was exuberant in the simplicity, and there was connotation in the low-key, the concubine liked it very much, if it wasn't for this recuperation, the concubine wouldn't have found it." ”
Kangxi frowned, anger growing in his eyes, "Cope? Feelings, you used to deal with me? Ma Jia Shuwan, you dare to say such things in front of me, why didn't I find out that you were such a heartless person before. ”
Shu Wan pouted, she used to call her Wan'er when she was in love, but now she is directly called Ma Jia Shu Wan, sure enough, the man's mouth is a deceitful ghost.
"It's not too late for the emperor to find out now," Shu Wan sighed and continued: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the concubines are deeply sinful, and when they stay in Jingyang Palace in the future, they will definitely pray for the emperor day and night, and bless the emperor with a long life and a long Qing dynasty." ”
"I can't live forever, I'm going to be angry with you now," Kangxi took a sip of tea and shook his head helplessly, "Ma Jia Shu Wan, Ma Jia Shu Wan, you are really my nemesis." ”
"The concubine doesn't dare."
"Heh, what else do you dare not do," Suddenly, Kangxi's gaze froze, and his gaze turned to Shu Wan's arms and feet wrapped in gauze, "The steps in front of the gate of Chengqian Palace are wide and gentle, how did you fall?" ”
Shu Wan's hand holding the handkerchief tightened, "The bottom of the flower pot that the concubine wore that day was too high, and she accidentally fell down if she didn't notice it for a while." ”
"What shoes were you wearing?"
"It's the pair of water ripples embroidered with magnolia flowers."
Kangxi put down the tea bowl with a bang, "Those shoes are not high, how could you fall, Ma Jia Shuwan, should you be..."
Shu Wan hurriedly said: "The emperor thinks too much, it is difficult to wear the bottom of the flower pot, if you don't believe the emperor, you can try it yourself, besides, the concubine fell down at that time, but many people saw it, does the emperor still suspect the concubine?" ”
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Kangxi's mouth, "Naturally not, how could I doubt you?" After all, there is a person in the world who is so stupid that he breaks his arms and feet, isn't that stupid? ”
"Yes, yes, isn't it stupid," Shu Wan tugged at her veil, "but as long as the emperor believes in the concubines." ”
"Well, I believe you."
Kangxi leaned comfortably on the chair and looked at the strangely shaped wheelchair that Shu Wan sat down, "This thing called a wheelchair is really good, and the two round wheels next to it can also be moved, which is really convenient." ”
"The emperor has won the award, this wheelchair was not thought up by the concubine herself, but the concubine saw someone do this when she was a child, and then she drew a gourd and asked the Internal Affairs Office to make it exactly the same."
"It turns out that you saw it when you were a child, and it sounds like your life when you were a child was really colorful."
Kangxi raised his eyebrows and looked at Shu Wan with a playful look, Shu Wan was startled by such a look, could it be that Kangxi had begun to doubt her.
After looking at it for a while, Kangxi withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the decoration of Jingyang Palace, and a cowpea red group brocade Taibai Zun attracted his attention.
Kangxi got up and looked at it carefully, and was sure that it was cowpea red, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, this cowpea red firing is difficult, the yield is low, it is extremely rare, and there are only a few in his study in the entire palace, why is there such a thing in Jingyang Palace?
Shu Wan was stunned when she saw him holding the Taibai Venerable, and couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Do you like that Taibai Zun too? ”
"Well, that's good."
Speaking of cowpea red porcelain, Shu Wan was instantly full of energy, "The concubines also think it is very good-looking, and there are several concubines here." ”
"How many more?"
"Yes, there is also a long-necked bottle and a pomegranate flower butterfly pattern plate, the concubine thinks it is good, so she accepts them all."
Kangxi frowned, turned sideways and asked, "Take it?" Who sent you? ”
"It was given to the concubine by Lord Cheng named Cheng Jinshan, and the concubine thought it was good and accepted it."
He was not familiar with this name, and asked, "Cheng Jinshan?" What did he say to you. ”
"I didn't say anything, but I just said that he had a son, Cheng Dazhi, who participated in this year's imperial examination this year, thinking about whether the concubine could blow the pillow wind or something."
Kangxi was speechless, but he was sure that Cheng Jinshan was definitely not using the words 'blowing the pillow wind' at that time.
"Did you know that the last palace examination of the imperial examination has ended at the end of April?"
"Ah, really?" Shu Wan's eyes widened and she slapped her thigh, "Oops, then there is really no way, the concubine was injured at that time, and she was too busy to take care of herself, and she forgot about such an important matter." ”
Kangxi smiled, the imperial examination is the highlight of the year, although it has been strictly forbidden, but there are still some people who are not afraid of death dare to ask to come to the palace, as far as he knows, almost everyone in the harem has received such a 'salute', but he has always turned a blind eye, after all, people are humane, ghosts have ghosts, and there are no fish when the water is clear, he still understands this truth.
There is also the fact that this Taibai Zun is placed in such a conspicuous place, is it really when he can't see or is blind, and it is really bold enough to put the bribes he received like this.
Kangxi looked at the Taibai Zun carefully, the glaze was even, and the red was also very smooth and beautiful, it was indeed a top grade, that Cheng Jinshan was able to send such a thing, and he gave three pieces as soon as he gave it, it seems that he is worth a lot of money.
"Those who don't know are not guilty, so be it, this Taibai Venerable I like it very much, so I will accept it, and I will not pursue your private bribery."
"But this matter can only be regarded as Cheng Jinshan unilaterally wanting to bribe the concubine, and the concubine didn't really say good things about Cheng Dazhi in front of the emperor, the concubine should be innocent."
"What do you want to say? You don't even know that Cheng Jinshan, so you dare to accept his gift, why are you so bold? Well? ”
Kangxi leaned down and looked at Shu Wan very seriously, her eyelashes blinked quickly a few times, lowered her eyes, and said obviously with a weak heart: "It's not because the concubine likes this kind of cowpea-red porcelain, and she suddenly took it for profit, and she didn't know how to accept it." ”
"A few pieces of porcelain can buy you, you're really..."
The things he sent before, which one is not as precious as this cowpea red, but he is liked by these broken porcelain, which is really hateful! It's time to fight!
He slammed Shu Wan's head hard, "You are not allowed to do this kind of thing again in the future, you know?" ”
"Well, the concubine knows."
"Then this Taibai Venerable took it?"
"Yes."
"And that long-necked bottle and that pomegranate butterfly pattern plate, I will take it with me too."
"Huh? Didn't the emperor leave any of his concubines? ”
I knew that she wouldn't say it, Shu Wan was really anxious to scratch the wall, this kind of cowpea red porcelain she had seen on TV in modern times, cowpea red porcelain is very special, and since the Kangxi Dynasty, the skill of cowpea red firing has been lost, and the only few remaining pieces are kept in the museum.
When she saw it at that time, she felt that this kind of porcelain was really beautiful, especially the incomparable color of cowpea red, which immediately grabbed her heart.
However, with her financial ability at the time, she could only buy a fake and put it there to enjoy it, but she didn't expect that Cheng Jinshan to bring her three pieces at once, although her brain said that she should refuse, but her heart couldn't refuse.
Kangxi saw her appearance of wanting to cry and couldn't cry, but he was angry and ridiculous, he put the Taibai Zun away, and said: "Actually, I originally wanted to leave those two pieces for you, but I suddenly thought that if you see this cowpea-red porcelain, you have other thoughts in your heart, so what should I do?" So just let me take it all, you will have no thoughts in your heart, and naturally you will not have other ideas that you shouldn't have. ”
As soon as she heard this, Shu Wan's tears were about to flow out, "Yes, the concubine obeys the order, the emperor is for the good of the concubine, and the concubine understands." ”
"Well, it's good that you can think like that, good."
Tears rolled in Shu Wan's eyes, and the cowpea red that she had worked so hard to get was gone.
Kangxi touched her head, "Okay, okay, isn't it just a few porcelain?" I'll send you a bunch another day. ”
"Cowpea red?"
"Naturally not, but I can guarantee that they are all fine official kiln porcelain, and you will definitely like it when you see it."
"Then forget it, the concubines don't have a place here to put those porcelain that occupies a large area and is useless and can only eat ashes," Shu Wan waved her hand, "The emperor still rewards the concubines with some gold and silver, at least it is more practical, and the concubines can also reward the palace people with it." ”
Kangxi rubbed his forehead, although he had been together for so long, he still couldn't fully understand Shu Wan's preferences, when he liked something, he liked it very much, he couldn't wait to crush it and eat it to the bones, and he was completely disdainful of what he didn't like, for her, delicate hairpins, jewelry, and porcelain were not as good as some cheesy gold and silver.
It's really infuriating and loving, especially looking at Shu Wan's pitiful appearance that has just shed tears, he really wants to eat her in one bite.
Sometimes he really wants to get into his head and heart to see what kind of person she is.
So before Shu Wan could react, Kangxi was already eating her upper lip.
"Hmm, Your Majesty, what are you going to do? The concubine is now injured! ”
"I know," Kangxi pressed her head down at once, "be careful, I don't want to leave a wound on you." ”
Shu Wan snorted disdainfully and said in a low voice, "The emperor is here again." ”
"What's coming again?"
"The concubines are all injured so badly, you still bully the concubines, you, you are the body of the concubines!"
"Hungry for your body?" Kangxi raised his eyebrows and wiped the saliva from her lips with his hand, "Let's talk about each other, didn't you also say that you were fascinated by my beauty?" ”
Shu Wan thought about it, she seemed to have said something like this.
Seeing her in a daze, Kangxi directly picked her up from the wheelchair, "Since you said so, I naturally have to behave well, right?" ”
"Your Majesty, don't!"
"Ah, it hurts, it hurts! Your Majesty, tap it! ”
The few people guarding outside the door heard that the room was so lively, looked at each other silently, and then retreated three steps away.
Inside the house
"How are you, are you alright?" Kangxi saw Shu Wan holding his arms and looking at him with teary eyes, as if he was the biggest sinner in the world, "It's me who is wrong, I will declare the imperial doctor." ”
After Imperial Physician Zhao saw it, "The emperor can rest assured, Concubine Yu Niangniang is fine, and the fracture has not worsened, but you must not move again in the future, otherwise it is likely to fall into hidden dangers." ”
"Well, I know, stand down."
"Why doesn't the emperor leave?"
Kangxi touched her delicate eyebrows, "I haven't talked to you for a long time, and I finally said a few more words today, and you're going to leave?" ”
"The concubine just asked, if the emperor doesn't leave, then stay here."
Shu Wan arched the quilt, and then got in, "Anyway, the concubine is tired and painful, and she wants to rest for a while." ”
"Well, let's rest."
After a while, Shu Wan felt someone stumbling into bed.
"Your Majesty?"
"Well, don't move, I just want to hug you and go back to the Qianqing Palace soon."
"Oh."
Kangxi rested his head on her shoulder, and the vibrations of gasping and speaking were transmitted through the skin to her limbs little by little.
"I haven't seen you these days, and I even dream of you at night."
"What did you dream of a concubine?"
Kangxi chuckled twice, "I dreamed that you lost your temper with me, saying why did you ignore you for so many days, and you still cried fiercely." ”
"I also dreamed that you and I, just the two of us, we galloped together on the grassland, very beautiful."
"The emperor should ask the imperial doctor to prescribe some soothing decoction, so that there will be no dreams."
"But I want to dream, because I can see you in my dreams, and in my dreams there are only you and me, and you and I are just the most ordinary couple in the world."
Kangxi took her hand and interlocked his fingers, "If I weren't for the emperor, I would have taken you to the end of the world a long time ago." ”
He hugged her for a while before he got up and said, "Okay, what I want to say is finished, you can rest well, and I will come to see you tomorrow." ”
After Kangxi had been gone for a long time, she answered softly, "Okay." ”
