The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Aunt Chen was already waiting on the side, and Qin Rou only needed to move her hands and pass the bowl over!
Aunt Chen looked very kind, took the bowl, and then stepped back.

Qin Rou was ready to turn around so that she could continue massaging Kangxi's temples.

It was already late. But it didn't matter, the entire palace was there to serve the emperor. What was the big deal if it was an hour or two late? Even if the lights stayed on all night, it was the emperor's great favor, and we should be extremely grateful...

Not a big deal.

The palace is the most rule-abiding and the least rule-abiding. But whether it is rule-abiding or not, it has nothing to do with the servants below. That is the privilege enjoyed by the master.

In the palace, the number of people who can be called masters does not exceed one handful at most.

Qin Rou was someone who had understood this a long time ago.

She understood this point and it was no big deal for her to just do it.

However, she hadn't walked a few steps, but turned around and walked one or two steps, when Kangxi suddenly reached out and held her hand. Qinrou was startled, and the touch of his slender fingers came first, and then Qinrou asked naturally: "Your Majesty?"

Li Dequan had not yet led the servants who were to serve Kangxi in bathing into the inner room. It seemed that the emperor's washing items were not ready yet.

Kangxi looked up at her, exerted force on his hands, and pulled Qinrou into his arms. Qinrou was caught off guard. People are used to protecting themselves, especially her. She is a selfish person who always puts herself first, so she naturally wants to stabilize her body. However, men are always much stronger than girls.

Therefore, her usual gentleness and calmness were gone, and she was panic-stricken and panic-stricken. In a state of fear and anxiety, Qin Rou finally fell into Kangxi's arms. She could still hear and feel the sound of her heart beating in her right chest.

The time seemed very long, but in fact it was only a moment. She suddenly had this thought. When she watched TV before, the pictures were usually beautiful and romantic. She exclaimed, "Great!"

Now that I have experienced it, I realize that the momentary insecurity of being off the ground and out of control is enough to make a person's heartbeat unbalanced for a moment, as if it can no longer function.

Qin Rou just wanted to curse. How could Kangxi, an emperor, learn such a lecherous behavior? He was frightening, probably to death.

In a flash, the smell of alcohol on Kangxi's body had no effect on Qinrou. It can be seen that there is nothing that people can't change, nothing that they can't adapt to, it's just that they haven't been forced into a desperate situation yet.

Kangxi saw her change of color and panic, which was much more pleasing to the eye than her usual docility. He placed his big palm on her pounding heart and smiled as if the prank was successful, "What are you afraid of? I won't let you fall!"

See if she believes it or not. Qin Rou wanted to curse and also wanted to reply with this sentence.

It's strange that the emperor's words can be trusted. When he is willing to fulfill his promise, even if you don't mention it, he will take it to heart and put it into practice. This is called the emperor's promise, the words of the imperial edict, there is no regret.

But if the emperor has no intention, if you say one more word or sentence, you will be considered ignorant and ignorant of the rules.

In short, he has the final say in the world. Black and white, everyone listens to him.

"I also want to be fearless!" Qin Rou pulled the corner of her mouth, her throbbing heartbeat revealed her inner emotions, Qin Rou said: "But thinking and doing are two different things! It happened suddenly, maybe because I fell too many times when I learned to walk, and I also felt the pain. Before the brain reacted, the body had already sensed the fear and began to have coping strategies." People are born with a mouth, except for eating, it is used to shut their mouths! Or to speak.

In short, it was just a body reflex, what could she do?

It is rare that Kangxi still has such a childlike heart today.

Qin Rou's words were rambling, but they made some sense. But she wanted to talk, and for a moment, she no longer considered whether to keep her mouth shut!
Kangxi smelled of alcohol. He put his arms around her and leaned his head on her.

"After all, it's the body's fault, not yours! Right?" Kangxi concluded. After all, he is good at speaking and can argue that he is not wrong. Qinrou looked up at Kangxi's expression. He didn't look angry. His sharp eyes showed that he was not angry. They were very bright and beautiful. A smile could be seen in his sharp eyes, which was very obvious.

"That's right!" Qin Rou responded confidently. "I didn't make any mistakes in the first place."

Think about the future in the future. If someone hates you, even if you are just a corpse lying there, they will still blame you for polluting their eyes and the ground.

There is never any reason for disgust and dislike.

If Kangxi wanted to find fault with her in the future, it would be nothing more than a small matter. -- A small matter among all the things.

When the time comes, she will accept it if she is asked to die or be punished! What else can she do if she refuses? There is nothing she can do.

But when he likes you, he is willing to bear the responsibility for you, no matter how big the mistake is. This is what a man is, this is what an emperor is.

So she was not wrong, why should she admit it? She was not wrong! Kangxi had already confirmed it.

"He is a sharp-tongued man who always avoids the important issues." Kangxi said lightly.

Qin Rou said nothing. She was eloquent, but why couldn't she just say something to praise him? She wouldn't push him too far. It wouldn't do her any good!
Qinrou agreed.

Kangxi also laughed, but it was hard to tell what he was laughing at. A smile could be seen in his sharp eyes.

Coincidentally, Li Dequan entered the inner room with his servants.

When Li Dequan led the servants into the palace, all the servants lowered their heads and followed the chief steward Li Dequan in an orderly manner. They were very well behaved. They did not look sideways, and they held basins and other things in their hands, all of which were there to help Kangxi wash.

The bowl of sobering soup had already been removed.

Li Dequan was much happier.

He had served the emperor for many years and knew that the emperor hated to drink hangover soup, whether it was simply because he didn't like it or for other reasons. Out of ten times of being served hangover soup, the emperor rarely drank it!

Today, they drank for the sake of Concubine Nara's face. Li Dequan was also happy. If the emperor was comfortable, they, as servants, would also have a good life.

Aunt Chen went out with an empty bowl, and Li Dequan saw it and understood what was going on. The two of them even nodded and smiled.

"Your Majesty," Li Dequan saluted. The servants following him, no matter what they had in their hands, could not avoid saluting. The master was the most important.

The servants served closely and knew best that they should not listen, ask or tell.

Qin Rou sat in Kangxi's arms. To be honest, sitting in Kangxi's arms was not as comfortable as sitting on a couch or a chair, but the emperor was noble! Throughout the ages, only one true dragon emperor could sit in the emperor's arms. That must be the blessing of the previous life and the result of eighteen generations of ancestors. Very noble!
Qin Rou also sat calmly. Whatever happened around her was not something she could control. What did the servants see and what did they not see? The sky wanted to rain, my mother wanted to get married, and the emperor's wishes were up to him, whether it was a reward or a punishment!

They are so insignificant as ants that they can only accept it.
