Chapter 280: Temptation
Kangxi's feelings for Yunxi are actually not very clear to him, but he knows one thing very well, that is, he doesn't want to leave her, let alone have an accident with her. Although the matter of the witch curse was dealt with in time, the fear of losing her at that time still made him feel palpitations.
It stands to reason that Kangxi should not have a weakness, not to mention that this weakness is still standing in front of people clearly, but Kangxi thought about it, and even hinted to himself countless times, but he couldn't remove Yunxi from his heart. After all, he didn't want to try the fear of losing her, and he didn't want to experience the feeling of being out of breath with his chest tight.
In the final analysis, Kangxi is also an ordinary man, and he also longs for understanding in his heart, and he wants someone who can really accompany him. He once thought that the Empress Hesheri was the one who could accompany him, but unfortunately she wanted too much, in addition to favor and power, he could give the former to the latter, and if he could give the latter, he couldn't give the former, after all, the world was in the Qing Dynasty, and he couldn't let any surname have the possibility of overriding Aixinjue Luo, so even if they were young couples, they could only split in the end, and what made him even more unwilling was that he had no power, even if he didn't like it, he had to give Empress Yuan dignity, which made people think how much he loved her.
"Xi'er, there are some things I only say once, you listen carefully!" The moment he spoke, Kangxi held Yunxi who was leaning in his arms tightly in his arms, and did not let her look up at the expression on his face: "In addition to repaying your kindness, I also welcomed you into the palace because I was a little curious about you, but after that, your gentleness, your understanding, Your tolerance has surprised and cherished me, although I may not be able to give you everything, but I am sincere to you, so I may be wronged by the last resort, but I will protect you wherever I can. ”
Kangxi didn't say that it was his greatest sincerity to stop letting Yunxi be wronged from now on, because even if he was the king of a country, he had to have a last resort, not to mention Yunxi, it was himself, many times he was obviously unwilling but had to compromise for the sake of the overall situation, and he didn't feel wronged at that time, but there was no way.
This world is indeed the world of the Qing Dynasty, but he is not the only one who loves Xinjueluo Xuanye in charge of this world, so all he can do is to make himself stand higher, and then seriously do everything that is beneficial to the Aixinjueluo family and the world, as for Yunxi and a few children, that is all his selfishness, and his heart is the softest.
Yunxi looked up at Kangxi's eyes full of friendship in surprise, listened to his most straightforward confession, looked at the seriousness and determination on his face, and it took a long time to bloom a smile on his face, and then leaned into his arms softly, and answered gently, with indescribable joy and relief in his voice.
Kangxi's chin rubbed against the top of Yunxi's hair, and there was a kind of relief in his heart after analyzing his inner emotions, these words actually lingered in his heart for a long time, but he never had a chance to say them. Now this is just a coincidence, otherwise Kangxi's domineering and sullen personality is afraid that he will never open this mouth.
Fortunately, Yunxi has never been the kind of woman who likes to get to the bottom of things, she took the initiative to give Kangxi enough space, and cleverly slowly infiltrated his life in a moisturizing and silent way, becoming an inseparable part of him, not only can he not lose her, but the most important thing is that he does not tolerate others to hurt her. Originally, this kind of action was the most difficult to complete, but Yunxi, who slowly showed herself, made Kangxi move her and fell in love with her.
Yunxi leaned on Kangxi's arms, although she was a little moved in her heart, but she was very restrained, maybe it was because Kangxi couldn't give her all her feelings, she would try to restrain herself, so as not to let herself become crazy about love like Concubine Tong, and finally hurt others and hurt herself.
All this today is really surprising to Yunxi, after all, after she accepted the fact that Kangxi did not belong to her, she died of this feeling, but at that moment, Kangxi suddenly confessed her heart, such a divine operation made her seem a little dazed and at a loss, but when she came back to her senses, she was at ease. With Kangxi's sincerity, she will not say that she will do whatever she wants in the future, at least when she is old, she will not let the so-called newcomers step on her head.
This time, everyone with a discerning eye knows why Mulan Qiuqiu's purpose is clear, Kangxi wants to test the Mongolian ministries, but it seems a little unclear to bring the queen mother. It can be said that this opportunity is a great opportunity for the Empress Dowager to improve her prestige, and it is also an opportunity for her to decide whether she can live in peace with Kangxi? After all, the fundamental contradiction between Kangxi and the Empress Dowager before was that she did not want Horqin's woman to go to the harem, and now Kangxi's attitude has made it clear, and the rest depends on the Empress Dowager's own choice.
It can be said that although the choice of the queen mother cannot change the overall situation, it also adds a lot of trouble to Kangxi in a certain aspect, because Kangxi wants Mongolia to continue to be loyal, so he has to make a gesture of favor to the woman sent to the palace by Horqin, and even give a high enough position to show his attitude, which undoubtedly makes the concubines from the Eight Banners including Yunxi appear passive, and also makes Kangxi feel unhappy in his heart, feeling that the queen mother is finally the same as the queen mother, only caring about the interests of Horqin and ignoring his feelings.
At that time, the first choice is wrong, and the status of the queen mother will definitely become very delicate, after all, Kangxi's heart knot for the queen mother is still there, if the queen mother is also like this, then fundamentally speaking, it is self-destruction, who makes the queen mother's biggest shortcoming is that she is not Kangxi's biological mother!
"It seems that the concubine was too unreasonable just now, but the emperor's words made the concubine very happy. Yunxi rubbed Kangxi's strong chest and whispered.
Kangxi patted Yunxi's back lightly, and said with a smile: "It's good to be happy, my Xi'er smile is the most beautiful, and my favorite is your smile." When Kangxi said this, his eyes were soft as if he was about to come out of the water, drowning people in it.
Yunxi didn't say anything when she heard this, obviously she should have been moved, but all she could think of was the various arrangements after the trip, after all, she had three children to take care of, and she didn't spend a little more thought, how could she rest assured. After all, she is not the only concubine who is serving in this harem, and there is also the queen mother, and the scene is so lively, there must be no shortage of good shows, and there is no shortage of intrigues and tricks. Although she didn't want to hurt anyone, she never lacked this heart of defense.
In addition, since it has been decided to go, it must be prepared for other things, such as food, clothing, housing and transportation, it is impossible to rely on others for everything, especially eating, not to mention Kangxi, it is Yunxi and three children, that appetite has long been raised, just those beef and mutton on the grassland with a strong smell, it is good to taste new occasionally, and eat them all at once, Yunxi is afraid that they will be directly unaccustomed to the soil and water, and will be packed and sent back.
Kangxi didn't think about it so much, after all, as the king of a country, he has too many things to do, this kind of thing he has always given an order, and then the people below have broken their legs to arrange everything for him, even the accompanying women, which are all drawn up for him to choose.
No, Yunxi is in charge of his own stall, and Concubine Niu Colu, who is in charge of the palace power over there, not only did not get the opportunity to accompany him, but also had to arrange everything himself. Even so, she didn't dare to complain, but when arranging the selection of her entourage, in addition to the Queen Mother and Yunxi, the other concubines who served with her were either like Yi Concubine, who were neglected and were almost forgotten by Kangxi, or they were low-status and rarely emerged, or they were dependent on the Niu Colu family to live, anyway, inside and out, the prevention that could be prevented, the one who could take advantage of the advantage, and the same were all calculated.
Kangxi roughly read the booklet sent by Concubine Niu Colu, and when he saw the list of concubines accompanying him, his brows furrowed slightly, but he didn't say anything after all? After all, this harem needs stability, and since Concubine Niu Colu wants to stay in the palace and sit in the battle, then he can't lose her face too much, so even if this matter is not so arranged to his heart, he doesn't know anything, after all, what he really wants to bring is only Yunxi alone, with her, it is the same whether the others go or not.
It's just that Niu Colu Guifei's careful thinking is too obvious, which Kangxi looks down on, and on the contrary, Yunxi, who is only in charge of part of the palace power in the harem, is much more generous, unlike in the past, when Concubine Tong was in charge, she always used to make things difficult for people, which Kangxi was very unaccustomed to, but because of Concubine Tong's identity and the balance of the harem, he turned a blind eye and did not interfere, but this does not mean that he knows nothing.
It is said that he is not deaf or dumb and does not be a family, since Kangxi gave Niu Colu the right, it is impossible to interfere in everything, after all, there is no doubt about employing people, if he even has to interfere in the daily affairs of the harem one by one, let alone Qiu Xuan, I am afraid that even sleeping is luxurious.
But Concubine Niu Colu didn't know that her careful thinking made Kangxi see it clearly, and she thought that Kangxi was very satisfied with her arrangement, and she was happy in her heart, which has to say that most of the beautiful misunderstandings started from brain supplementation.
However, after Kangxi announced the date of going to Mulan Qiuqiu, those who were able to accompany him were naturally overjoyed, and those who could not sigh at any time sighed, after all, no matter how rich and noble the Forbidden City is, they will feel tired of staying for a long time, and it is a good thing to be able to go out and see it, otherwise it will greatly increase the chance of sleeping, who is not greedy, but unfortunately before they can use all their resources to fight for it, there is already a result, which has to be said to be fate!
When Yunxi learned about the personnel accompanying the concubine, although she was a little surprised, she didn't feel too surprised, after all, Niu Colu Guifei didn't fight or grab it because she didn't have ambition, but hoped to prove that she was different from her successor with her actions, and continue to earn Kangxi's favor, as for the future, even if she can't be favored, at least she has to take the opportunity to conceive a son and a half daughter, in short, in Yunxi's opinion, Niu Colu Guifei is a rare smart person in the harem, and she knows what she wants from beginning to end!
"Niangniang, this Niu Cobalt Lu Guifei looks at her generosity on weekdays, but I didn't expect that just a Mulan Qiuqiu would make her true form exposed, you can't let her calculate it in the future, otherwise it will not be good if she really suffers a loss." Qiao Ying looked at Yunxi, who didn't care, for fear that she would suffer a loss in the future, so she couldn't help but remind.
