The Woman Behind Kangxi: The Biography of Virtuous Concubine

Chapter 38
Kangxi didn't care about him, he waved his hand to signal him to retreat, and sat there without moving for a long time.

Ning De, who was accompanying him, sighed inwardly, poured a cup of tea and offered it, and said, "Your Majesty, drink some water and take a rest quietly."

Kangxi took the teacup blankly, held it in his hand, but didn't drink it.After a long time, Fang finally sighed and said: "I was wrong, I was wrong. I thought that Wu Sangui would not dare to rebel, but I didn't expect him to rebel so quickly! Give me another three years, repeat again!" Years, I'm ready!..."

Ning De looked at him tenderly, and persuaded politely: "The emperor is not wrong, how could the emperor make mistakes? Wu Sangui's rebellion has already appeared, and he will rebel if he withdraws, and he will rebel if he does not withdraw. The decision of the emperor is not wrong. It is only a matter of time before he gets rid of him." Now, although we are caught off guard, the emperor is the true son of heaven, with great blessings, so there is no need to worry too much about this capricious and self-willed villain."

But as if he hadn't heard of it, he stood up and paced back and forth, muttering to himself, with an abnormal expression.

The empress dowager coughed: "Forget it, De'er, you can go back with the emperor first, seeing that he is not in the mood to chat with my old lady anymore."

Ning De looked at the emperor worriedly, stood up and replied: "The concubine knows."

Xiaozhuang stood up, as if he wanted to leave, but at the moment of leaving, he stopped his leading crutch severely, and said sharply: "Emperor, cheer up! De'er is right, you are ours!" The king of a country in the Qing Dynasty, the court is full of civil and military affairs, and the people of the world are looking at you, put away your panicked look, don't worry, the sky will not fall!"

Then he walked towards the inner palace without moving his head.

Ning De watched the empress dowager leave silently, secretly admiring this woman who had the blood of the descendants of Genghis Khan flowing in her body, full of bravery, fortitude, confidence and wisdom, and fought her whole life in the vortex of Manchu court struggle and political tide.

Kangxi also seemed to be awakened by these few words, and he held hands with Ning De, watching his grandmother leave slowly but calmly and powerfully.Ning De felt that Kangxi was holding his hand tightly, and said in a low voice: "De'er, we have to learn from the emperor's grandmother! I am ashamed!"

This time, Ning De did not speak to comfort him, but squeezed Kangxi's warm and dry palm vigorously.The feelings at this time can no longer be expressed in one or two words.The worries about the future fate of the Qing Dynasty and the shock brought to them by the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang tightly connected their hearts.

Under the moonlight, Kangxi rested in the Chengxi Hall of the Imperial Concubine Niu Hulu's Dongzhu.

Since Ning De became a nobleman, he has become more and more careful in his work, cautious and sensitive. If Kangxi often visits her, he will persuade him to rest with other concubines. Xiangyi didn't come to invite her to sit down for a while. Most of the time she stayed out of the world, serving the two empress dowagers in the Palace of Compassion and Ning for a long time, devoting herself to worshiping Buddha.Compared with the newly favored nobles, there is almost no mistake in their behavior and behavior, and they have not given any excuses to everyone, so they live in peace for a while.

As a result, it was inconvenient for Kangxi to stay in Yonghe Palace every night. This day, he remembered that he had not seen Concubine Jing for many days, so he set up a display in Chengxi Palace.

Concubine Jing was delighted that the emperor had arrived at the Chengxi Hall. She greeted the maids for a while, and cooked the dishes herself, setting up a table full of dishes.
