Forbidden city

Forbidden City, Baohe Palace

Kangxi couldn't stand goosebumps and swallowed his saliva, while Concubine Ping and the nouveau riche standing over there showed an indifferent expression on Concubine Xuan's behavior, Kangxi gently withdrew his hand from Concubine Xuan's hand, smiling with embarrassment and politeness, "I came back late from my inspection last night, it's not that I fell asleep directly when I was tired, and I didn't go anywhere." ”

"That's right, the emperor is in charge of everything, and he cares about the world, how can he care about anyone in the harem? Not to mention Sister Xuan, even the queen doesn't necessarily have the opportunity to accompany the emperor often, and sister, the emperor is tired and you insist that the emperor come to you, why don't you think about the emperor so much? Do you say it's the emperor? The nouveau riche is not a vegetarian at first glance, and he is also beautiful, but his mouth seems to be a little poisonous, and his voice is relatively sharp, Kangxi hooked the corner of his mouth with a perfunctory smile, and nodded perfunctorily; Seeing that Kangxi nodded, the nouveau riche was so happy that he immediately took advantage of the situation and picked up the bowl that the palace maid next to her had been holding and handed it to Kangxi, "Your Majesty, this is the tonic soup that the concubine personally boiled for you, you can taste it." ”

Kangxi took it, smiled perfunctorily, and put it on the table, "The new noble has a heart, and I will drink it after a while." ”

"Your Majesty, the new sister's tonic soup can be drunk later, but the concubine's freshly cooked osmanthus cake has to be eaten at the best time, Your Majesty, come, the concubine feeds you." Concubine Xuan sat next to Kangxi and had no intention of leaving, so she picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and was about to hand it to Kangxi's mouth.

Kangxi grabbed her hand all of a sudden, and said perfunctorily, "I don't think it's the best time to eat now." ”

"The emperor should drink the tonic soup of the concubines first." "No, no, no, eat osmanthus cake first." "It's good to make up the soup." "The emperor loves to eat osmanthus cakes." "Tonic soup is good for the body." ...... The two of them quarreled so that Kangxi was even more tired of this, he closed his eyes, got up after a while, walked to Concubine Ping's side and said to the two of them, "Can't you be as quiet as Concubine Ping?" ”

Concubine Ping smiled and bowed her body, she really had nothing to say from just now, except for the words of greeting, just standing there quietly and waiting, this is her highest position. "Your Majesty, the concubines just came to see the emperor and asked the emperor to say goodbye, I didn't have to be as thoughtful as my sisters and sisters, my lord, the concubines are just waiting for you to let the concubines retreat." Concubine Ping's appearance is more like a hibiscus than that of the nouveau riche and Concubine Xuan, and she behaves decently, her speech is meticulous, and her speech is neither humble nor arrogant, in Kangxi's eyes, in the harem, such a girl is more popular with him, so she is named a concubine, and she will never embarrass her queen sister.

"Well, okay, I'm going to see you and your sister another day, you can go and rest first." As soon as Kangxi's words came out, Concubine Ping congratulated her body, and left calmly like her title.

As soon as Concubine Ping retreated, Kangxi was thinking about how to send the remaining two annoying concubines, when suddenly Su Bojian came in, "Your Majesty, Lord Ling asks to see him, do you want to announce him in?" ”

Kangxi instantly grabbed a life-saving straw, and looked at Su Bojian with golden eyes, "Okay, okay, tell him to wait for me in the imperial study!" Su Bojian smiled and retreated, Kangxi was also very happy, and then looked at the two people who were full of resentment, "You want to be here, right?" Then I'm gone. After saying that, he didn't look back, although he was leaving, but it was like running away.

"Your Majesty!!" The two yelled, then looked at each other, then rolled their eyes at each other, "Humph!! ”

The Imperial Study

"See the emperor."

"You've really saved my life!" Kangxi sighed as soon as he came in, making Ling Feifei confused.

"Huh? What's wrong with you, Your Majesty? ”

"It's okay, it's those annoying women, you and Su Bojian's trick is really useful, and it will continue to be carried forward in the future." Kangxi just thought that Su Bojian was looking for Ling Feifei to help.

But, "Your Majesty, the minister and Lord Suo have something to discuss with the emperor." ”

"What's wrong?" Kangxi suddenly became serious, "Xuan." ”

After a while, Suo Etu came in, "The minister Suo Etu is the emperor." ”

"Calm down, you've found out a thing or two, right?" Kangxi changed his childlike state just now, and at this moment he is the monarch of a country, the emperor of the Qing Empire.

"Yes, the emperor, the minister and Lord Suo investigated together, the emperor's assassination was really planned, and they were so blatant, because they had the ability to directly compete with the imperial court." Ling Feifei was also very serious.

"What does that mean?"

"Your Majesty, have you heard of it...... White Lotus Sect? Suo Etu's question shocked Kangxi, "The White Lotus Sect arose in the Tang and Song dynasties, and slowly developed into a huge organization fighting against various dynasties, Zhu Ming even strictly forbade it, but this White Lotus Sect is almost all over the country, and the imperial court wants to do something against them, but I am afraid that it will be even more difficult." ”

Kangxi pondered, "White Lotus Sect? ”

"Your Majesty, there are many factions in the White Lotus Sect, and the number of sect members is also immeasurable, but they will only obey the arrangements of their bishops, as the saying goes, capture the thief first and capture the king, what we have to do is to find out where their bishop is as soon as possible and annihilate them in one fell swoop." Ling Feifei's words made Kangxi nod slightly.

"Okay, Suo Etu, pass on my will to thoroughly investigate the White Lotus Sect, I want to restore peace to the world as soon as possible, and there will be no more such an organization that will harm the world."

"Obey the order!" After saluting, Suo Etu withdrew.

"Tie Fei, how is the situation in the Zongren Mansion?"

"Your Majesty, they still insist that they only have a relationship with Aobai and are helping Aobai do things; The strange thing is that Ao Bai also admitted that he had this group of people under him, but they were not confidants, and this group of people who were arrested by Chao Fangyuan seemed to be inseparable from the White Lotus Sect. ”

Kangxi nodded, "It's okay, I have a lot of time, I can spend it with them slowly, it's still the same, we don't move them, it's so easy to give birth to, it's the day when the fox always shows its tail." ”

Ling Feifei understood, nodded with a smile, "Then the emperor, the minister will go down first." ”

"Wait." Kangxi suddenly stopped him, "That, I told you to send someone to secretly follow Shu Liu......"

"The emperor can rest assured, Shu Liu's side has already helped you keep an eye on it, but the emperor, do you suspect that he is, the White Lotus Sect?"

"That's not it, he saved me and will definitely provoke the person who wants to kill me, if he is in danger, I will be fully responsible, although I have met a few times, it can be regarded as a so-so experience of life and death, but he is full of resistance to the court, I want to make a friend, I have made friends for a long time, I don't believe it, I can't take this person for my own use." Kangxi was full of confidence, and his confident appearance made Ling Feifei show a subtle expression, in the final analysis, the little emperor is just a child, a child.
