Comprehensive Qing wear good luck
Chapter 26 Kangxi's Harem Wins Everyday
After seeing off Su Jing, whose intention was unclear, Chunlan couldn't help but step forward and speak.
"My lady, the flower room suddenly wants to send flowers. Do you think there is another intention?"
It’s no wonder Chunlan was overthinking, Su Jing came too quickly.
An Ning is in favor, but her foundation is unstable, and Su Jing's attitude is too nice.
As the people sent by Kangxi to protect peace and safety, Kangxi has put in a lot of effort. This is reflected in the fact that Chunlan and Mammy Ulan are very clear about who are the people in charge of the harem.
Su Jing is also a big shot in the greenhouse.
Chunlan felt that Su Jing had come with bad intentions.
"What do you think this Eunuch Su is going to do?"
The first thing Chunlan thought of was the secret affairs of the harem. Although flowers are good, there may be many places where they are manipulated. Although the fragrance of flowers is better, the rich fragrance can cover up many unusual things.
Many ladies in the palace would not grow too many flowers, let alone keep them for too long. No matter how good the bonsai was, they would only enjoy it for a day or two and then take it down.
But it's not easy to say this directly.
"I dare not speak nonsense."
"You are thoughtful. I know that strong flower fragrance is not necessarily good, but I also want to see if anyone wants to make fun of me behind my back. Besides, I really like flowers and plants. When I was in the boudoir, my mother always said that women should focus on managing the household, so I never announced this hobby to the public. Now that I have entered the palace, I can tend to flowers and plants to kill time."
When Chunlan heard this, she immediately stopped objecting.
In addition to protecting An Ning's safety, she also has another mission, which is to ensure An Ning lives a comfortable life.
"I will send someone to check the things sent from the flower room."
"Thanks for your hard work."
"It's what this servant should do."
Looking at Chunlan's serious expression, An Ning was puzzled as usual, why?
Although Kangxi's "attention" could make her worry-free for the time being, An Ning was not at ease because she did not know the deeper meaning behind it.
The life of a concubine in the Qing Dynasty was not as free and comfortable as in modern technology and a society ruled by law, but compared to the days of uncertainty and hunger in the last days, today's life was enough to make her content.
But there was something incomplete in this contentment. She couldn't feel at ease because she didn't understand why Kangxi valued her.
He sighed softly and picked up the book again.
She had read many books in the past, but she had never been able to calm down and read them. Now that she is in the harem, she has experienced a lot and can really take in a lot of things.
As for the reasons why Kangxi values her, we still need to explore it, but there is no rush. For now, Kangxi will not do anything bad to her.
In the afternoon, Su Jing brought a dozen people from the greenhouse to deliver flowers and trees.
After all the busy work, Changchun Palace became "poetic and picturesque".
After politely seeing Su Jing off, An Ning looked at the summer colors in the garden and called Baiguo and Chunlan.
"Come with me to have a look."
"Yes, ma'am."
After looking around, An Ning laughed. It was really interesting.
She sighed first: "It's rare to see such beautiful chrysanthemums in this season."
Autumn chrysanthemum, autumn chrysanthemum. It is not autumn yet, but the chrysanthemums sent by the greenhouse made her feel that the weather has become much cooler.
Chunlan knows a lot.
"There are many talented people in the flower house, and there is no shortage of flowers and plants that are not suitable for the season in the palace. Winter peonies are also common. If your majesty likes them, it would not be a problem for the flower house to send one or two pots in winter."
Since ancient times, the upper class has often held banquets on the pretext of flower-viewing. It was only during the Qing Dynasty when the Manchus were in power and had not moved into the Forbidden City for many years that flower-viewing and other "elegant things" continued to be practiced by literati in the south of the Yangtze River. There were mostly Manchus in the capital, so there was no shortage of these things in the palace, but they were not very popular outside the palace.
If An Ning had traveled through time ten years later, she would not have been unaware of the flowers that were not in season.
"So that's how it is. There is indeed a capable person in the flower room!"
After sighing, An Ning looked at the diligent lady mixed in with the evening primroses in the corner, then looked at the pots of poppies that were particularly enchanting, and the narcissus potted plants whose stones were replaced by jade.
Sigh, these are not good things.
Madam Qin looks very similar to Xiyanhua, but they are different in subtle ways. She also has another nickname, Mandragora, and her whole body is poisonous.
The same is true for poppy.
These two things are okay. Although they are poisonous, it is not a big deal if you don't eat them. However, these things are in her palace and the small kitchen is nearby. It would be easy for someone who wants to harm her to provide the raw materials.
As for daffodils, they are the most beautiful, but they are also poisonous, and they are the kind that can make her feel sick if she smells them too much.
The poppy and the daffodil were in conflict, but in the end, they found a clear path.
Madam Qin is more interesting. I don’t know who wrote this, but she is really flattered!
Chunlan: "My lady, I had someone check it out. There is some poisonous qinniangzi mixed in with the evening primrose. Also, the poppy is poisonous and cannot be eaten. Would you like me to send someone to send it back to the flower room?"
There are many talented people in Changchun Palace, including some who understand flowers and plants, and they are very proficient in them.
Even among the people in the greenhouse, few people would know about this thing of Qin Niangzi. After all, it is not common. It is not surprising that Yu Meiren was found out.
An Ning is delighted with Chunlan's ability, which is great!
"No need to send it back. They sent it here with great difficulty. It would be a pity to send it back. Send someone to keep an eye on it and see if there is anyone dishonest in Changchun Palace."
"Yes, ma'am."
"These two pots of daffodils are nice. Put them in the study. I will feel comfortable looking at them."
"Yes, ma'am."
She liked to stay in the study alone and read books, and no one would know what she did to Narcissus.
In fact, An Ning's favorite is Lady Qin, who owns Mandragora. With her, he won't have to worry about hallucinogens, which are good for interrogation.
The key is that after purifying it with the system, she can conduct interrogations without anyone noticing, and can also keep the other party unaware, which is comparable to hypnosis.
The osmanthus tree was also delivered, but it is not very tall, but it seems to be growing well.
Thinking of the tradition of not planting tall trees in the Forbidden City, An Ning could only express her understanding, otherwise there was nothing she could do.
Narcissus was also sent to her study.
She secretly collected some narcissus "essence" and hid it.
"My queen, the daffodils are growing better and better. It seems that the feng shui of our Changchun Palace is good, otherwise the daffodils would not grow so well."
Baiguo went into the study to clean and saw the daffodils growing better and better, and couldn't help but speak.
peaceful:……
In order to purify it, she used her wood-type ability to raise it, so it was naturally excellent, but it became more poisonous.
She is not afraid of this thing, but she doesn't want others to come into contact with it too much. She would feel sad if someone really got poisoned.
"It does look good, but even though the flower is beautiful, I've had enough of looking at it all day. Take it out and send it back to the greenhouse for processing!"
Bai Guo was stunned for a moment, then said: "Yes, Madam."
Narcissus was sent out of Changchun Palace, and two more pine and cypress bonsai pots were added to the study. There was nothing wrong with these two pots.
"Your Majesty, someone from the Imperial Office has come to tell you that the Emperor has turned over your name card today."
An Ning has become accustomed to being Kang's "favored concubine". She only has a gentle smile on her face and is very calm in her heart.
"Let the kitchenette prepare!"
"Yes, ma'am."
Kangxi arrived not too late, it was still early. The two were talking in the study when a voice came from outside the door.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Xia promised to come and pay her respects."
Kangxi and An Ning were both stunned.
Kangxi was stunned because he hadn't met such an unruly person for a long time.
An Ning was stunned because it finally arrived.
Looking at Kangxi, An Ning said with a sour tone: "Your Majesty is really lucky. I have never seen you come to pay respects in the evening on weekdays."
Kangxi couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "My beloved concubine, are you jealous?"
An Ning was embarrassed: "Your Majesty, how could I have that?"
Seeing that she was stubborn and unwilling to admit it, Kangxi was happy and a little jealous!
"Oh, since my beloved concubine is not jealous, then I want to see if Xia agrees?"
An Ning has already noticed Kangxi's inconsistent "tolerance" towards her, and she wants to test it.
So she deliberately snorted: "The emperor's mind is not something that I can influence."
"It seems that my beloved concubine is really jealous. Since my beloved concubine doesn't like me to see other people, let Xia agree to go back."
In fact, Kangxi no longer remembered who Xia Ying was. There were so many people in his harem that he could not remember many. Xia Ying was not favored in the past, and even though she was pregnant, she did not leave much trace in Kangxi's heart.
An Ning shook her head: "Forget it, Xia promised that she has feelings for him, but I cannot be a jealous woman, so let's meet her."
