The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 145: Being humble and polite is always the right thing to do
Even if the emperor seals the pen, it has nothing to do with their harem concubines. When the emperor seals the pen, it is essential for them to go to the Kunning Palace of the main palace and queen every day for morning and dusk inspection.

Even if Qin Rouyuan was in Qianqing Palace, this was no exception.

Qinrou had been prepared early in the morning and would leave when the time came. What she does most patiently every day is to reflect on her morning and evening.

Kangxi put a big cloak on her, and there were as many gloves as Mrs. Tang. Seeing that Kangxi was interested, the servants also helped her. Until they were packed up and made sure they would not freeze, the emperor said: "Finish the invitation for the queen." After that, come back."

Qin Rou bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I have gone to pay my respects to the Queen. I excuse myself." Qianqing Palace is also close to Kunning Palace, but the distance is not a reason to get up late.

Qin Rou always believes that it is better to do it sooner rather than later when it comes to things like morning and dusk. Even if you arrive earlier? There will be no words of fault; if you arrive later, you will definitely be "arrogant".

Qinrou saluted, with a white hair mop on her forehead. The emperor stretched out his hand and put the white cloak hat on her head.

At least it's protected from the wind and rain so you won't get cold.

Qinrou bowed slightly, and then walked outside the palace. Qianqing Palace is the largest and most majestic palace in the entire harem, followed by the Queen's Kunning Palace. There is a long way from Qianqing Palace to Kunning Palace. Walk.

It is difficult to walk along the palace road at night. In winter, it gets dark earlier. Early in the morning, the white twilight has disappeared. It snows every three days in winter. Although the snow has stopped by this time, the palace road is still dark. It is even more difficult to walk.

Xiao Man waited on the lantern, and the light was already dim. Fortunately, there were palace lanterns illuminating the palace road. Although it was still dim, a faint light could finally be seen.

Qinrou could only walk slowly.

It should be said that both the slaves and the concubines walked extremely carefully.

A fall is no small matter.

Even though he was cold, he still wanted to speed up, but he still walked carefully. The closer he got to Kunning Palace, the more he could meet the concubines who were also going to Kunning Palace to pay their respects.

Qinrou had no friendship with anyone, and she didn't want to talk to other concubines in the palace.

The concubines they met were either in groups or alone. Naturally, they had no thoughts about Qin Rou. This was the case on the surface. Secretly, even if there are any ideas, they will only come secretly.

This is the benefit of being pampered! When He finds that He cannot afford to offend you, He will be friendly to you subconsciously, so everyone is like this.

Qinrou didn't want to speculate whether she was included in their gossip. Qinrou didn't care about what she talked about. As long as she couldn't see it, she could just treat it as 'no'.

However, the concubines are also in a hurry, and the weather is cold. Not every concubine can dress beautifully and warmly. This is the confidence that only concubines or concubines with wealth have.

Therefore, you can tell whether a person is good or not by looking at him. But in the palace, it is easy to tell whether someone is a beloved concubine or not.

The concubines came to the palace one after another. As usual, Concubine Zhang was missing from the main hall of Kunning Palace. Concubine Zhang was still in confinement, and there was still about a month left until her confinement was completed.

It seems that the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and I don't know if Concubine Zhang will be released during the Chinese New Year.

"It's really cold today. When I was walking on the road, the wind kept blowing in my face. The palace road was slippery. Lilac held the palace lantern for me, and the palace lantern was blown up by the wind." Concubine Dong and Concubine Wanyan on the side was talking.

Ding Xiang is Concubine Dong's personal maid. Concubine Dong is a woman who knows how to understand current affairs. Even if the Queen and Concubine Niu Hulu don't mention it, she also knows that Concubine Wanyan has a special status in the palace. Although the masters above try their best to avoid this, how can any of the concubines not be angry with the gang of slaves in the Ministry of Internal Affairs? Look at how many servants in the Ministry of Internal Affairs dare to have trouble with Concubine Wanyan. .

"The proud snow is Lingshuang, the winter snow is towering, and it is colder in winter." Concubine Wanyan is also polite. It is true that Concubine Dong was born as a slave, but she has two talents under her knees and the emperor's favor, which is enough to stand proudly. People.

Wanyan is familiar with poetry and books, and he is very clear about the fact that heroes do not ask the source.

Women who are both emperors are already at the same starting point. Those who are favored by the emperor will always have a smoother journey. How many concubines who came from noble families were suppressed and unable to move by the common people who came from humble backgrounds.

The emperor's preferences are the most unpredictable. Who knows which concubine in the harem or which woman in the world the emperor will favor.

There is nothing wrong with Concubine Dong, but as long as she is favored by the emperor, this is good enough.

Concubine Wanyan had been in the palace for four months, but she had not done anything. She has eyes so she can observe for herself; ears so she can listen; and brain so she can judge for herself.

But the time is still too short. In just a short period of time, nothing can be seen.

After all, Concubine Wanyan would not offend anyone and she would get along well with everyone.

You can never go wrong by being humble and polite.

"Some people are cold, and others are warm." Concubine Dong said: "Look at Concubine Nala's appearance. My sister comes from a wealthy family and has sharp eyes. Can you tell that they are all made of good materials? But they are all gifts from the emperor."

Since the beginning of winter, the emperor had prepared several sets of clothes for her. Looking at the winter clothes of the other concubines in the palace, they were bloated and short, unlike hers. At first glance, they were made of fine materials from tribute furs.

Is this all the savings? You can tell if you don't say much, whether you are pampered or not.

Concubine Wanyan smiled calmly. She didn't care what Concubine Dong meant, and she wouldn't be jealous. Concubine Nala really overwhelmed them. It should be said that there was no one in this group who didn't feel suffocated.

But Concubine Wanyan knew that there was always someone in the palace who wanted something. She could still calm down, but it would not be possible if she didn't. Concubine Nala was easy to get along with. She just ignored people and rarely interacted with others. , and will not find fault with others for no reason.

The most important thing is, is the emperor doting on you? How could she have trouble with the emperor?

"Is the emperor's inner treasury rich? The emperor likes it, but there is no need to reward him a little more. Let's talk about Sister Concubine Li, Sister Concubine Wen, and Sister Dong..., which one of you is short of the emperor's subsidy." That's all for them. Those who are not favored will also be rewarded after entering the palace.

Concubine Wanyan is open-minded, she is still protecting herself, how dare she have other thoughts. She was very cautious, not daring to do anything that Emperor K didn't like, so Concubine Wanyan also said in a joking tone.

"Concubine Nala has just suffered a serious crime. She only took medicine for a month. It is understandable that the emperor feels sorry for her." Concubine Wanyan even said.

One month is not long enough for people to forget everything. Concubine Wanyan secretly meant something, but she would not show it openly.

After all, it is someone else's sad thing, so if you mention it, you don't have to hold grudges.

He was already distressed, but this suffering made the emperor even more distressed.

"What sister Wanyan said is reasonable. Concubine Nala has suffered, and the emperor does feel sorry for her." Concubine Dong also sighed, and the two seemed to be just chatting.
