The upgrade of Concubine Xian in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 142

In the palace, Kangxi took Concubine Tong to the Empress Dowager's courtyard, and the two had breakfast with the old lady.

"Xuan Ye, hurry up and deal with things, you don't need to stay here with me anymore." The Empress Dowager said according to her old habits.

"Emiang, I don't have to be so busy. Now that I'm in the Zen seat, I feel much more energetic. It's good for the fourth child to go to work." Kangxi said quickly.

In the past few days, Kangxi came here a little bit more frequently, which made the Queen Mother feel a little strange, and even started talking beside her, telling Kangxi that the previous court should be the most important thing.

"Emiang, don't worry about it anymore. The fourth child has good abilities, and I will not be the best support if I don't go there." Kangxi replied respectfully, "There is no second sun in the sky, and there is no second king in the country. Since I have let go , don’t worry about it anymore, the courtiers of the previous dynasty will know who is going to manage the country.”

When the Empress Dowager heard Kangxi's words, she felt a little generous in her heart, and Kangxi really thought clearly.

"Back then, Han Erniang did the same thing. After you came to power, she didn't restrain you any more, she just helped you when you needed it." The Empress Dowager nodded, Kangxi's approach was very similar to that of Xiaozhuang.

Although Kangxi had some conflicts with Xiaozhuang, Kangxi had to admit that Xiaozhuang had really done a good job in this matter.

"Emiang, let's not talk about this matter anymore. After a while, take Yuanshou and Jiaojiao to see the ice lantern together." Kangxi looked at the Empress Dowager expectantly.

The Empress Dowager herself is a very well-behaved person. In order to avoid troubles from time to time by the old Fujins who are full of Mongolia, she would rather stay in the palace and seldom run out.

"Xuanye, Erniang knows that you want me to go and see. If those people find out, it will definitely be a chance encounter." Kangxi and others made trouble, she would rather not go out by herself.

Kangxi quickly waved his hands: "The fourth child went out once with two children, let's leave in a low-key manner, absolutely nothing will happen."

At the gate of the courtyard, Hongli's carriage had already stopped, Zarafin stood in the carriage, took off his clothes, turned around and looked at Hongli, and asked him to see if there was anything inappropriate, Hongli Li shook his head directly.

"It's all very good. Don't be nervous. It's not the first time I've seen Khan Mafa." Hongli got out of the carriage first, then turned around and hugged Zarafin who was standing at the door.

Ever since Zarafen watched Hongli and the others stepping on the little eunuch to get out of the carriage, he couldn't adapt to it. It was just a small look. After Hongli found out, he asked someone to replace the little eunuch with a horse stool.

In the main hall, Kangxi immediately became happy when he heard what Li Dequan said.

"Yuan Shou has grown up and used a horse stool. Among the princes, this is the first one." The Empress Dowager said directly.

Kangxi quickly shook his head: "It should be that Jiaojiao couldn't bear it anymore, otherwise, Hongli would never have done this."

The two little men walked in one after the other, respectfully saluting everyone.

"Knock." The Empress Dowager said lovingly.

"Mother Angguma, how are you doing today? How are you?" Hongli quickly asked about the Empress Dowager, and Zarafin obediently stood by Hongli's side.

Kangxi and Concubine Tong looked at the two cheerfully, and didn't mention the rules at all.

"Well, that's right, Yuanshou, I'm going to see the ice lanterns in a while. I heard from you, Mafa, that the two of you went to the night market yesterday?" The Empress Dowager looked at them curiously and asked.

Hongli quickly responded: "The night market is really lively, and the ice lanterns are beautiful, but it's definitely not very safe, Mama Anguma, just go and see it during the day."

After hearing Hongli's words, the Empress Dowager immediately understood that they must have encountered danger when they went out, otherwise, Hongli would not have said so.

"Well, let's go out now." The Empress Dowager helped Narentoya up, and was about to go to the inner room to change clothes.

Zarafin only had time this time, looking at Kangxi and Concubine Tong who were dressed in princely clothes. Since Kangxi had been in power all year round, he could never hide his aura.

"Okay, let's go out later, Jiaojiao calls Zhen Mafa and Mamo, you know?" Kangxi looked at Zarafin and said.

Zarafin nodded cautiously, Concubine Tong looked at her, and burst out laughing.

"Xuan Ye, don't be too serious. When the time comes, you will scare Jiaojiao. Don't say it, you might as well not laugh." The relationship between Tong Taigui and Kangxi has become closer, and she is no longer as frightened as before. Now, occasionally, Concubine Tong can still play a joke with Kangxi.

Kangxi felt a little resentment in his heart, while Concubine Tong picked up Zarafin and started teasing Zarafin to call Mamo.

"Han Mafa, you'd better stop laughing, grandson and Mama have the same idea." Hongli said as he approached Kangxi.

"Stinky boy, what happened yesterday, who is it aimed at?" After Kangxi took the Zen position, he seldom took care of things, and only when danger happened occasionally would people investigate.

"Han Mafa, if you investigate, Ama won't say anything, she should be targeting Jiaojiao, because she has lost several girls who are similar to Jiaojiao's age recently, so Ama discussed with me , let Jiaojiao hide in the cloak all the time, so she didn't have a good time." Hongli said briefly.

what?
Kangxi looked at Hongli strangely and asked, "How many girls have been lost?"

"It is said that there are already more than a dozen." Hongli looked at Kangxi and said back, "Now, many people are guessing what these people are doing. Some are children of high-ranking officials and noble families."

"Is no one going to investigate?" Kangxi frowned slightly, maybe it was because of this that Yinzhen went to the night market.

"Khan Ama should have sent someone to investigate, Khan Mafa, shall we go out?" Hongli asked with his head raised.

"Li Dequan, go and prepare the carriage, Yuanshou, you can use your own carriage exclusively." Kangxi said directly.

Hongli watched the Empress Dowager come out from the inner hall, and Narentoya rolled up a lady's flat plate, with a few golden hairpins pinned to her head, as if she was a lady accompanying the old lady.

"Xuan Ye, let's go." The Empress Dowager looked at Kangxi and Tong Taigui Concubine and said.

A group of people walked towards the commercial street in a carriage. Zarafin lay down on the table and looked at Hongli.

"Ah Hun, let's go out now, when will we come back?" Zarafin was worried that Yinzhen and the Queen would tell Hongli if they found out.

"Ama will bring Erniang over before dinner, so you don't have to worry about it." Hongli said looking at the scenery outside the window, "You'll have fun in a while, don't think about it."

Hongli regretted letting Zarafin see the reality clearly, and was worried at a young age.
