251 - Unexpected favors
Li Dequan hurriedly stood in response, turned around and bowed respectfully, "Your Majesty." ”
Kangxi said thoughtfully: "Don't call others to come, after all, this is in Yonghe Palace, and it's not like words to say." In this way, you go to the Qianqing Palace and let Yinxiang come over, after all, it is his blessing. By the way, tell him that if he can't send Zhao Jiashi back to his room quietly, don't blame me for letting him kneel down the porch together. ”
Li Dequan was happy in his heart, and then his face fell again, and he asked pitifully: "Your Majesty, what ......?"
"What's that? Why don't you go soon? Kangxi waved his hand impatiently and asked Li Dequan to hurry up.
Li Dequan saw that his master didn't understand his hints, so he had to ask in a low voice, "Long live the master, what about the fourth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother?" "I went and only invited the thirteenth elder brother away, and the other two elder brothers still let them kneel?
As soon as Concubine De heard that her two sons were in the Qianqing Palace, she was stunned for a moment, then looked at the emperor and asked casually: "Are the fourth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother also with Yinxiang?" ”
Kangxi's face was somewhat embarrassed, but he still said calmly: "Yinxiang is messing around, Yinzhen Yinyu is also dishonest, and I let them all reflect in the Qianqing Palace in a fit of anger." Don't worry, it's not a big deal. Instead, he instructed Li Dequan with an unhappy face: "Naturally, they will each go back and reflect." Do I want to tell you about this kind of thing? ”
Although he was scolded by Kangxi, Li Dequan finally got the emperor's words, so he still went steadfastly.
Concubine De has been in the palace for a long time, and what she knows best is how to appease the emperor's mood, seeing that Li Dequan went to deliver the decree, she gently helped Kangxi to go inside, "Yinzhen and Yinyu are not sensible, and the emperor should discipline them well." Please also ask the emperor not to indulge the concubines in order to take care of their face, that is really not to give the concubines dignity. ”
Kangxi was very satisfied with what he said, but he was a little sour, so the emperor simply took the topic and only said that he wanted to have lunch here, and what delicious food could be prepared in the dining room.
Concubine De had to be busy and agreed, so she asked people to make careful arrangements, and finally forgot about the sound of the voice for a while.
Kangxi was very happy to see Concubine De Zhang Luo, and he was also thinking about what to say, and waited for Concubine De to almost finish what he had ordered, and then slowly opened his mouth. "Aifei, in all fairness, what do you think of that kid from the Zhaojia clan?"
People are picked by the emperor, things are ordered by the emperor, and the scale in Concubine De's heart is clear, so she said without hesitation: "That kid is very good, smart, sensible, kind-hearted, and very pleasing." ”
"Don't pick and choose what to say." Kangxi waved his hand, signaling that Concubine De didn't want to hear these words. "I want to hear something practical, the truth." In the ears of the emperor, Concubine De's words were too popular, and basically anyone who had seen Zhaojia's voice would say such a few words. "I want to know, this child has been with you for a long time, just get along day and night, how do you feel when you watch her every move on weekdays?"
Concubine De looked at Kangxi with some hesitation, she didn't want to reply to this, but she couldn't be perfunctory, so she didn't know how to say it for a while.
Kangxi gently knocked the table next to him with his fingers, and said as if he had realized: "That's very bad?" It's not good that you can't even say what to say to defend her if you're so honest, so if it's ......"
Concubine De was frightened by the emperor's words, and while kneeling, she explained, "No, no." Your Majesty, it's really what you said. ”
"What's that like?" Kangxi asked with a sense of nature.
Concubine De thought for a while and said seriously: "This child is indeed a very likable and reasonable child, not to mention the rules. Lord Marhan is proficient in Sinology, and the daughters of this family are also half talented, especially the little mouth is sweet, and she always talks in a set way, and the people who coax her have no temper. ”
Kangxi nodded, "This can be regarded as a good temper, there are not many such girls in the families of noble officials now." "I'm quite satisfied." What else? "No one is perfect, this little girl won't have any problems, right?
"The only fly in the ointment is that she is somewhat stubborn, and some words and some truths are not figured out by herself, there will be no pimples, but I am afraid how she will twist it. Well, there's ......" At this point, Concubine De was a little speechless.
"And?" Kangxi just wanted to say that stubbornness is not a big problem, there must be Concubine De, and suddenly felt that Niansheng would be an interesting person, so he asked.
Concubine De knew that her next words might not only be as simple as offending Marhan, but even the emperor would be offended, so she had to say more and more cautiously, and carefully consider her words. "That's it, I'm afraid it's better to do that rule in front of people."
Kangxi listened to Wu Ya's words, and couldn't help but laugh, this is indeed a question, or a big question that everyone has.
Concubine De didn't understand the reason for the emperor's laughter for a while, and she couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in her heart, and asked uneasily: "Your Majesty, why are you laughing?" But what did the concubine say......"
"No, no, no, it's not that you're saying something wrong." Kangxi hurriedly clarified, "I just think what you said is very interesting, I'm afraid the rules are better done in front of people, I am afraid that it is not only Zhaojia's family, most people in the world are like this, right?" ”
Concubine De nodded yes, although she was a little embarrassed, she still talked about Niansheng's private dealings with Yinxiang, and the things that Yinyu also joked about. "Now their concubines who come and go, but in the future, when they come to Yinxiang's mansion, if she is still like this, not to mention that the rules in their mansion do not stand, it is to restrain others, but if she doesn't do a good job, she will be said by others to be dark under the lights." Concubine De said without worry.
Although Kangxi nodded, what he said was: "I think that with Zhaojia's temperament, first, she will not suffer in Yinxiang Mansion in the future, and second, her means should not be able to do this little thing well." ”
The emperor is such a optimistic person, of course Concubine De will not say anything, so she just echoed it, and left the emperor alone with the dishes in the kitchen to see under the pretext of leaving the emperor alone, and withdrew herself.
Li Dequan hurried to the Qianqing Palace, first listened outside, and then looked inside along the crack in the door, as he expected, only the fourth elder brother of the three elder brothers was still kneeling upright, the thirteenth elder brother knelt on his lap, and the fourteenth elder brother simply sat on the ground.
Seeing the situation clearly, Li Dequan gave the apprentice on the side a look.
The little apprentice said with a very good eye: "Master, didn't you follow the emperor to Concubine De's mother?" How did he come back suddenly. ”
Only then did Li Dequan pretend to scold his apprentice and say, "Go, go, go." Can you take care of my business? Are the three elder brothers still kneeling? The words "kneeling" were particularly important to him.
"If you are old, we didn't dare to go in and take a look, it should be."
"Alright, that's none of your business. I'll go in and take a look. As he spoke, Li Dequan pushed the door and wanted to go inside.
The people inside listened to the movement outside, and knelt down in a decent manner early, just waiting for Li Dequan to come in.
Li Dequan greeted the three princes with a smile, and asked Yinzhen and Yinyu to go back first, and then they could talk to Yinxiang when they left.
But Yinyu was very unhappy about this, and shouted at him Li Dequan vigorously, "My thirteenth brother and I are in trouble together, why did I go back and let him kneel here." ”
Li Dequan knew the impulsive nature of the fourteenth master too well, and he didn't dare to confront him head-on, so he had to smile and say good things to Yinzhen, "Four Belles, what does the emperor mean...... Slaves also have the difficulty of being a slave, go to the fourth Belle to be sympathetic and persuade the fourteenth elder brother. ”
Yinzhen couldn't rest assured that Yinxiang was in his heart, so he looked at Li Dequan and asked: "Gonggong Li, it's not that our brother wants to embarrass you, it's just that we went back and left Yinxiang alone, it's true that we are not sure." I also hope that Gonggong Li can make it convenient. ”
"Four Baylors are serious." Li Dequan heard it, if he didn't give an explanation, it would be difficult for him to take Yinxiang away smoothly today.
Li Dequan thought about it for a while, leaned on Yinzhen's ear and whispered a few words, Yinzhen's eyelids were one when he listened, and he asked in surprise: "Really?" ”
Li Dequan smiled and said, "Si Baylor, how many heads do the minions dare to lie to you?" ”
Yinzhen nodded, and without saying a word, he got up and pulled Yinzhen to leave.
Yinzhen wanted to ask a few more words, but before the words came out, Yinzhen was dragged straight out.
After sending these two people away, Li Dequan hurriedly asked Yinxiang to get up, and let the queen recite the emperor's words as they were, "Thirteenth Master Rongyu, it's not that the slave intends to embarrass you, but that's what the emperor ordered." ”
Yinxiang thanked him first, and then nodded and said, "Father-in-law took care of it, Yinxiang remembered it." As he spoke, he motioned for Li Dequan to go with him.
Anyway, there was no one left and right, and Li Dequan didn't mind selling one more favor to Yinxiang, so he said softly: "Look at the emperor's meaning, I probably want to end this matter silently." I also ask the thirteenth elder brother to be considerate of the emperor's thoughts, it is not good to make trouble again when I see Miss Niansheng for a while, and it is serious to send Miss Niansheng back to the house quickly. As for this thing behind closed doors, as long as the emperor can't hear it, then it will naturally be ......" said and did not forget to look at Yinxiang's reaction.
Yinxiang didn't expect Li Dequan to sell such a big face at this time, and he had the heart to reward to express his gratitude, but because he was just doing a daily errand today, he didn't plan to leave the palace, so he didn't even have any silver around him that could be rewarded.
Fortunately, Li De was not here, and without waiting for Yinxiang to think about it, he led him to Yonghe Palace.
When Yinxiang entered the door, his voice seemed to be sensitive, and when he looked up, the two looked at each other.
