313, Wang Ba is old
Wen Xi may not have seen Guiren Guo for a long time. She should be a few years younger than Concubine Yi, but now she looks declining and is far less than Concubine Yi’s charm. Although Concubine Yuan gave birth to the ninth princess Songgeli, she was not promoted to the throne because of this, and she is still a noble person. Not to mention Concubine Guo, the fourth princess Shu Lan is eighteen years old and is about to be enthroned and married, but her biological mother is still a noble person. There are many noble people in the palace, but there are very few who can be promoted from noble people to concubines. One step away, the world is different.
Before, when he had just told the Queen Mother that he wanted to choose a noble man to be a concubine in the empress dowager, Yuan Guiren and Guo Guiren couldn't sit still. Both of them were already the wife of the boss Xu. Knowing that it was difficult to please Chang Zai, he brought a charming Chang Zai and agreed. There was a Su who was left behind this year's talent show. He was very cute and beautiful. He had a bit of charm between his eyebrows and eyes. He said in a coquettish voice: "I heard that there are turtles here!" While lowering his eyes, he looked at Kangxi's fishing results, and said in a coquettish manner: "It's just that it's very difficult to catch."
Su promised to be from Yuan Guiren's house. Yuan Guiren naturally spoke, and said with a bit of compliment: "The turtle has the meaning of longevity. If it can be caught, it will be a good omen!"
Wen Xi was so uncomfortable with all kinds of scents. If it were just a kind of aroma, it might be pleasant to have a sweet fragrance, but if seven or eight kinds of spices were mixed together, the smell would be particularly bad. Kangxi was more determined and focused on fishing without moving.
Kangxi's fishing rod suddenly tightened, and with a thud, a huge turtle as big as a dip, bit the hook and was pulled out of the water. Wen Xi blinked and said, "There are really turtles!" - It's still so big. What age is the Seventh Prince who was stocked at the time of his spare time? Could it be that he raised it if he was a little bigger, right? Otherwise, how could he grow up so big without more than ten years!
Seeing this, Yuan Guiren hurriedly flattered with a smile, "Congratulations to the emperor, I will live forever!"
For a moment, Guo Guiren and others also hurriedly started to compliment. Kangxi rarely smiled on his face, but the smile did not last long. With a thud, the turtle fell into the water before he could pull it up by his lever. It seemed that the big turtle had loosened his mouth and raised his warm eyelids. He called him pride, but he forgot to take it back early. Now the bamboo basket is empty.
Yuan Guiren immediately smiled awkwardly, "The turtle is old, I can't bite it anymore."
Originally, Kangxi felt ugly and embarrassed, but Yuan Guiren said something. Kangxi's face turned blue. Wen Xi thought for a moment and then understood. The person who said Yuan had no intention, while the person who listened to Kangxi was interested. The turtle was old, but I was afraid that Kangxi felt that Yuan was mocking him for being old.
Yuan Guiren was not a fool either. He immediately knew that he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly knelt down with a pale expression: "Your Majesty, I don't mean that! Majesty is really just talking about turtles. There is no other meaning!" This was like he was trying to cover up.
Kangxi could not hear her explanation, his face was so gloomy that water dripped out. Perhaps he had come back from the battlefield and the murderous aura he brought had had not dissipated, which scared Guo Guiren and others so much that they were trembling and dared not say a word.
This is called flattery and slapping the horse's hooves. As Kangxi grew older, he became more and more cautious. Wen Xi put down the fishing rod and stood up and said, "Your Majesty, it's not too early. I asked someone to prepare lotus root powder and balls, so why not go to my palace."
Wen Xi persuaded Kangxi to leave, and Yuan Guiren suddenly felt like he was pardoned, and he lied to the ground, breathing heavily. Guo Guiren showed a little proud look on his face. Yuan annoyed the emperor, afraid that the concubine would be hopeless in this life, so she felt that she had more hope.
Until he returned to Chengqian Palace, Kangxi's expression had not improved. Seeing that it was almost noon, Wen Xi ordered the kitchen to prepare lunch. He ordered people to serve tea and said, "Yuan is not smart at all, so the emperor does not need to take her words to heart."
Kangxi narrowed his face and ordered: "Call Jingshifang to remove Yuan's green head sign and never be allowed to go again!"
Yuan was also unlucky. He said something wrong and he would never be favored in the second half of his life. In the past, Kangxi had seen the ninth princess who could summon him once and half a month. Later, he would have to stay alone in the empty room and end up old. Wen Xi was unintentionally sighing for her that there were too many concubines in the palace who could not see Kangxi once for more than half a year, so she was not the only one.
Suddenly, Kangxi sighed deeply and said, "Maybe I...really old."
Wen Xi also saw that there were crow's feet on the corners of Kangxi's eyes. The battlefield was sharpened, although it was not rough and murderous, but also sharpened people's youth. Wen Xi slowly took out the Yang Yang Pill from his sleeve and said, "If you want to use it, use it."
Kangxi held the cold touch in his hand and sighed a little, "I originally thought that I would not grow old and could have another son, but you have never been pregnant since you gave birth to Yinli... Maybe I am really old."
Wen Xi's mouth twitched, because she did a good job of protective measures! Then she remembered the sound of orioles all over the palace and couldn't help but snorted, "I think the emperor is not old. This year's new Su promised that Zhou Changzai and others were all as beautiful as flowers."
Kangxi then smiled and twisted warm nose: "You are getting more and more jealous!" Kangxi's face calmed down for a long time, but he was still a little sad. "When I used to, I always felt that no matter how many concubines there were, I could do it with ease, but now I'm a little helpless."
"I can't do it?" Wen Xi raised her eyebrows, "I didn't realize it." But she was not as capable as she used to be. The next day, she was rarely able to get started. She then pulled her fingers and calculated, "Now, there are ten concubines and ten nobles, and there are about twenty nobles. I always have to agree that all the officials and women and concubines are all over 100. Even if the emperor has ten clones, he can't take care of her. It's natural to be unable to follow her!" Then he raised his eyebrows and said, "Did the emperor think that he could summon all the concubines in a month?"
Kangxi was somewhat helpless after being joking with Wen Xi, but he was less sentimental. He said, "After all, I'm still eating it! I haven't added a few new people over the years, and many of my concubines are old, so I'm not very lucky."
Wen Xi's eyebrows and eyes were pretty, "Yes, the emperor likes concubines who are as young and beautiful as flowers!" Nowadays, except Wen Xi, only concubines above the position of concubines, are somewhat favored by concubines. Although Wen Xi has not read Tongshi for a long time, he also knows that if Kangxi did not come to the harem, those concubines who are lucky enough to be low-ranking and young and beautiful. If they don't like each other, they will be as good as they are young and beautiful as they are equal.
Kangxi suddenly pulled Wen Xi into his arms and whispered sweetly: "Where is you as beautiful as you?"
Wen Xi cut it disdainfully, with a bit of sour taste: "I am thirty years old, how can I compare to those of fifteen or sixteen years old?"
Kangxi thought for a while and said, "Well, you were born in the sixth year of Kangxi, and now you are thirty years old! I really think that if you solve the problem of Galdan, you will be easier. Next year, you will be thirty years old, and you will have to have a good time for the New Year!"
Qianqiu, Empress and Empress Dowager's birthday is called Qianqiu Festival, and the imperial concubine's birthday is also considered "Qianqiu". Wen Xi pouted, which woman loved to celebrate her thirtyth birthday? Is it a reminder to join the ranks of middle-aged and elderly people? So, she refused without hesitation: "But!"
Kangxi patted Wen Xi on the shoulder and said, "It's rare to have a lifetime, the next one... I don't know if I can live with you." His tone was inexplicably sad.
Wen Xi opened her mouth and felt silenced. She didn't know what to say for a while, so she hurriedly changed the topic: "I heard that the Fourth Prince is pregnant and hasn't come to the palace to pay tribute to the Queen Mother recently."
Kangxi said oh, "I think it's just because he's pregnant, but his fetus is not stable. The fourth brother has been married for five years, and he only has a princess under his knees. It would be great if he could get a legitimate son now. The third brother is about to give birth, so I have to prepare a name in advance."
The third concubine Dong E family was eight months pregnant, and also entrusted the third prince to be scolded by Wen Xi for "possessing concubines and destroying his wife". In the past two years, he has paid more attention to his legitimate wife. Now he has to have a legitimate son and is more motivated to do things.
After talking about Kangxi's grandson, Kangxi was quite happy to have more grandsons, especially his son's legitimate son. Kangxi had many sons, and thought that his grandson would definitely be indispensable, so he chose the character next to the character "Ri" and "Ri" with more characters next to the character "Ri" and "Ri" with most of them are good, so he chose such a radical. The eldest brother's family has Hongyu, and the Yuqing Palace has Hongxi, and now he is preparing to name the legitimate son of the third prince and the fourth prince.
"The bass has the effect of nourishing the five internal organs and has the effect of safe fertility. I have caught a lot today. It is better to condemn the third concubine and the fourth concubine to send some." Wen Xi smiled. She had no friendship with the third concubine, and her purpose was the fourth concubine. Wen Xi really hoped that she would give birth to the fourth prince's healthy eldest son and become the prince in the future! Although in history, Ulanara did give birth to the eldest son of Yinzhen, Honghui, but unfortunately this child was not very healthy and died at the age of eight. With Wen Xi, the child must be allowed to grow up safely. As long as he had the eldest son above, no matter how Ruyan jumped around, it would be useless!
After lunch, Wen Xi ordered people to send live bass, all of which were kept in clear water, and they must be fat, tender and delicious. The ones given to the Four Concubine were specially used for space water, which would make her look extremely stable. Of course, the premise was that she was really willing to eat. Ulanara was careful and didn't go out now, and I don't know if she would use them. Anyway, Wen Xi's job was done enough, and it depends on her whether she would use them or not.
In the afternoon, thinking of his promise to the empress dowager, Wen Xi asked, "When will the emperor plan to be promoted to Concubine Xuan and Concubine Wei?" This was something Kangxi had been interested in, and he mentioned it to Wen Xi a few days ago.
"I look at Concubine Xuan's health, wait." Kangxi's tone was faint.
Wen Xi couldn't hear how long Kangxi wanted to wait, so he said again: "If Concubine Xuan was granted a concubine, then there would be two vacant positions. Does the emperor intend to promote another concubine?"
"I don't look dignified and steady!" Kangxi said with some displeasure in his tone. When he thought of the words "The turtle is old", Kangxi felt unhappy.
