The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty
Chapter 455 Knowing That Drinking Poison Would Quench Thirst
What a great show! The show has ended, but those who were immersed in the show have not realized that they were trapped in the show, and naturally have never thought about leaving the show. I am afraid that so many people are still immersed in the show and are worried!
There is sympathy for one's own kind, and there is also compassion for the world, but she is still a human being after all.
However, the four heaviest words or idiom in the world are - powerless.
The survival rules here are primarily cruel and cold-blooded. Only cruel and cold-blooded people can protect themselves. If you add the four words "profit first", good luck, glory and wealth, you can also give it a try.
Qin Rou told herself not to take it to heart. Human power was limited and weak. Even in this magnificent, cruel and bloody palace, she could only rely on luck and then try her best to protect herself. She was also a chess piece on someone else's chessboard. No one should pity anyone. She didn't deserve it!
She suppressed her compassion, which was still there, but it no longer affected her.
"It's so lively!..." Qin Rou said briefly and sighed! She didn't want to elaborate, and she wouldn't say much. She was still herself, still the same. She didn't lose her cautiousness and deep thinking because she was pregnant, and became trusting of others. For Qin Rou, except for me, everyone else was someone else.
Aunt Chen smiled... Even if she didn't go in person, based on the concubine's words, Aunt Chen dared to predict that it was very lively, otherwise Qin Rou wouldn't say so. In this palace! There are all kinds of calculations, and there are always, at most, the roles have changed.
And the master she served! Aunt Chen didn't dare to say that she knew 70% or 80% of him. No one could know another person, but 40% or 50% of him was enough.
This master comes from a prominent family name, but not a big clan. He has never been exposed to such sinister schemes as internal debts and murder for money without making a sound. But he is not without talent. He sees through things but does not say them out loud, and he knows what is going on but does not show it blatantly. Isn't this better?
Aunt Chen didn't say much, and smiled: "Just by listening to what the concubine said, I know how lively it is." After all, even the concubine recognized how lively it was. Aunt Chen planned to ask the servants who followed her to serve her. She didn't want to inquire about the whereabouts of her master, but she wanted to keep a bottom line in her mind about some things in the palace.
Of course, they also wanted to see if the new servants were useful. Loyalty could not be seen in a short time, but whether they were useful or not, their abilities were basically there, and generally speaking, they could not be faked. Because a person's stupidity, arrogance and other temperaments could not be concealed.
Qin Rou smiled, not wanting to say more. Aunt Chen did not ask, and time flowed slowly and quietly. Qin Rou thought about the bustle in the harem today, and unexpectedly thought of the previous dynasty. Based on past experience, the previous dynasty was a hundred times more lively than the harem. Anyway, since the withdrawal of the feudal system was put on the table, the previous dynasty has never been peaceful, and the court officials have been arguing over whether they agree or not.
It shows that they are capable and can argue.
Qinrou waited for the imperial physician to come and check her pulse, but the imperial physician came early. When it was almost time for dinner, Kangxi came with a sullen face. The servants in Zhenshunzhai were happy and terrified. They were all very careful, afraid that they would be hit by the gun muzzle and have their heads chopped off, which was a relatively painless way to die. One cut and the head would be separated.
Qin Rou waved her hand and asked the servants to retreat. She couldn't run away. If the servants were cautious in front of her, it would hurt her eyes. She would be furious if they saw her. As a master, Qin Rou felt that she had the obligation to protect the servants. They served her sincerely, and Qin Rou would not watch them die without saving them. Unless there was really no hope, Qin Rou would not show off. She served a cup of tea and looked at Kangxi's lingering anger. Qin Rou considered it very carefully. Anyone who was not mentally retarded could guess why Kangxi was angry. It was nothing more than the previous dynasty's abolition of the feudal system. Some ministers opposed him and had different opinions. Kangxi was angry! Now the court is not the only one who has the final say. Kangxi's power is not as serious as this.
The Three Feudatories were merely the cornerstone for Kangxi's great power and authority.
Seeing her quietly serving tea, Kangxi pulled her back and said, "I'll hug you."
Qin Rou said nothing, walked forward, stretched out her arms, hugged Kangxi's body, and rested her chin on his shoulder. Anyway, accompanying and listening are enough at this time. The rest can be discussed after Kangxi calms down! Otherwise, Qin Rou was afraid that Kangxi would kill people in her Zhenshunzhai. There were not many people in her Zhenshunzhai who could withstand his killing.
Li Dequan stood aside with his head down, waiting to be served, feeling relieved, as he had escaped a disaster for now. During these days, whenever the emperor was furious, Li Dequan felt that he would be killed by the sword in the next moment. Before the emperor decided to come to Zhenshunzhai, he had suppressed his anger, but when he stepped into Zhenshunzhai and saw Concubine Nara, his anger subsided a lot. At this moment, his anger subsided a lot.
Li Dequan just wanted to say, God bless you, ancestors bless you! His life was saved once again, and Concubine Nara really became his savior once again. Amitabha!!!
Qin Rou quietly let Kangxi hold her, hoping that she had the ability to cool down. Otherwise, the worst consequence would be that they would go to the underworld hand in hand. However, maybe she really had the ability, otherwise Kangxi would not hold her. Out of fear and respect for her own life, Qin Rou did not dare to say much.
"Talk to me." Kangxi's voice had calmed down a lot, and it expressed his emotions very well, but it still revealed some lingering anger.
Qin Rou naturally obeyed him, unless she wanted to try the head-moving game or the Nine Clans Elimination Game. Qin Rou did not dodge or avoid, and asked in a gentle voice, "Is the emperor angry because of the reduction of the feudal fiefdoms in the previous dynasty?"
Although it was a question, Qin Rou knew that there was no second answer.
As for why the question was asked so bluntly, I can only say that if possible, Qin Rou would not ask any more questions. It was just a matter of Kangxi's words and thoughts whether it was the concubines interfering in politics. If he changed his mind or changed his mind immediately, she would suffer, but Qin Rou still said it.
Because she knew that this was all Kangxi wanted to hear. He was indeed an emperor, but an emperor was also a human being, and he would also be upset, so upset that he wanted to kill people and behead them. Killing people and beheading people did not cost anything for the emperor. If you chat with him about something when he was upset, it would be strange if he did not get upset. He was furious. He just beheaded everyone at once...
So Qin Rou chose to say what Kangxi wanted to hear, even though she knew the possible consequences. Some things and some words, knowing that they may be harmful, are like drinking poison to quench thirst, but you still have to do them.
Sometimes, people have no choice but to choose the lesser of two evils. (End of this chapter)
