The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 152 White Jade Gold Hairpin
Kangxi summoned Concubine Niu Hulu to accompany him during the day, and went to the Queen's Palace at night, focusing on not leaving anyone behind.

There are only a few days until New Year's Eve, and the flavor of the new year in the palace is getting stronger and stronger. Along with it, the festive atmosphere in the palace is becoming more and more lively.

Under the control of the servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Chengqian Palace also has a new year appearance. Qinrou only lives in Zhenshunzhai, so when Zhenshunzhai was decorated, only the outer walls were decorated. Aunt Chen took Xiaoman and the others to follow suit.

The interior of Zhenshun Zhai was also decorated by Aunt Chen and Fushun. The servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not need to worry about it. After the decoration was completed, they only came in to take a look.

As the time approaches, New Year's Eve is gradually approaching in the palace.

"Let's see if you like it." In the dim candlelight night, Kangxi personally took a white jade gold hairpin, walked to Qin Rou's side, bent down slightly, and specially pinned it on her head.

Qinrou blinked her eyes. In this life, she was far away from mobile phones and no longer had the harm of mobile phone radiation. Her eyes were extremely normal. The eyesight is also excellent!

She looked at herself in the bronze mirror, with the hairpin on her head. It had to be said that it looked elegant and noble, and looked extremely good-looking.

Emperor Kangxi also looked at Qin Rou in the bronze mirror from behind. He looked as if she was trapped in his arms. He extended his index finger and touched the hairpin on her head. He was obviously very satisfied. It is resplendent, yet elegant and noble.

There was still a trace of regret in Kangxi's eyes, it was not the best after all! Kangxi originally valued another bead hairpin, Feng Chai, but it was inappropriate to give it to her now and would only bring trouble to her. After thinking about it, the emperor decided to stop.

Qinrou liked it very much when she saw it. It had to be said that, among other things, the emperor's vision was really good and the craftsmanship of the craftsman was really good. Beautiful things always make people love them.

Qinrou couldn't help but curve the corners of her mouth, and her eyebrows in the bronze mirror also curved, looking very beautiful. It doesn’t just refer to people, the hairpin is also very beautiful.

"Is this a reward from the emperor during the Chinese New Year?" Qinrou raised her head, and the person in the mirror also raised his head slightly, along with his body.

She could only look at the emperor from the corner of her eye. A pair of eyes full of joyful smile, very beautiful and pleasant to look at.

"Of course," Kangxi reached out and plucked the hairpin on her head. He was obviously very satisfied with his aesthetics and vision, and then uttered the second half of the sentence, "No."

"There are other preparations for the rewards during the New Year. This is just a small thing given to you at ordinary times." Kangxi said in a normal tone, as if this was an ordinary and simple thing.

Emperor Kangxi really didn't lack that little thing. He originally thought about putting this hairpin in the New Year's gift, but he gave up in the end.

He wanted her to wear it now!

As for other things that are missing, he can just make up for them later. Don't say just make up for the same thing, it doesn't matter if you make up for it ten times or a hundred times.

The emperor is rich. If the emperor likes it, he will not give enough gold and silver; if the emperor does not like it, he will not be stingy even if he gives a penny or a half.

Not everyone can be worthy of such a good thing.

Good things also come from people.

Qinrou heard that the emperor would give rewards during the New Year, especially during the Chinese New Year, they were even more generous. She thought this was a New Year's reward given to her in advance?

Hearing this, Qin Rou's eyebrows arched and she smiled beautifully. She is not stupid, nor is she a fool. She naturally understands that the emperor's reward during the New Year's Day is when one's status is displayed. The reason why she had such a carefree and good life on weekdays was because of the emperor's favor. Otherwise, how could she be so comfortable in the palace?

If it’s during the Chinese New Year, you’d better take it back! She didn't mind waiting two more days to reward her at the New Year's Eve banquet.

Everything on the left and right belongs to her, and it can make her life better, so why not? The New Year's Eve palace banquet is also a stage for showing strength.

How respectful your dear minister and clan Fujin will be to you depends on the strength you show at the New Year's Eve banquet. Although they both looked down upon you, one of them ignored you and never restrained himself from speaking in front of your face, while the other just said something behind your back and did not hurt your ears or eyes in front of you.

In comparison, the latter is naturally better. Qinrou doesn't want to pay attention to everyone, and she doesn't want everyone to pay attention to her.

Including causing trouble for her. Qinrou hates such trouble.

That's good! Qinrou raised her head, and her gaze reflected the bright face of Emperor Kangxi. In this ambiguous candlelight, there was some illusion, as if it could give people a heavy sense of security, and... A sense of history.

Qinrou thought, she wanted him to hug her! After being alone for a long time, she felt a little lonely no matter how much she liked to be quiet. So I want to be close to someone.

She thought so and did so. Qinrou stood up slightly and put her hands around Kangxi's neck...

The winter night is too cold, and the world with only one person is too strange. Sixteen years have passed by in a snap, and tonight seems a little unbearable. Let her find someone to keep her warm!
The night was bright, and the more revealing night had passed. The emperor was in a rare mood. He gently caressed Qinrou's body, held her in his arms, and kissed her face, with tenderness and reluctance in his voice. Still with the tiredness of getting up in the morning, "After tomorrow, it will be the first day of the New Year. I will not pass tonight in the new year."

Qinrou nestled in Kangxi's arms, her eyes no longer tired or exhausted. The fragility caused by the darkness in his eyes also disappeared.

Qinrou is Qinrou. The warmth of someone is always temporary, but loneliness is long-lasting. A person's road always has to be walked alone. Even if there is no direction, even if it is confused, even if it is ignorant, you still have to walk alone in confusion until the end.

The end of life is death.

"Yes." Qinrou responded softly. She knew clearly that this was the emperor. He is the emperor who is watched silently by thousands of pairs of eyes and countless individuals.

She had extravagant desires from him, but she always understood what is enough.

The emperor heard this and kissed her again. It's rare that you don't have to go to court, so you can sleep a little longer, but not for too long. Kangxi was an emperor, but he was also a son and grandson.

Huang Ma Ma and Huang Enie helped him a lot. For the sake of national policy and the orthodoxy of the Qing royal family, the emperor had his own considerations and refused and silently resisted the entry of Mongolian concubines into the palace.

However, greetings from time to time is also essential.

Therefore, neither the emperor nor Qinrou are idle people. When they get up early, one goes to Ciren Palace and Cining Palace to say hello, and the other goes to Kunning Palace to have a morning sleep. Even these days, the empress has never shown up, but she just goes to sit in the cold. You also have to sit on the bench.

Even if there is no bench, it is still necessary to stand upright in Kunning Palace.

People, only by doing their duty can they live a better life.

After all, it was because I couldn't resist.
