Since they are all worn by the Qing Dynasty, you might as well be bold and choose Kangxi!

Palace of Heavenly Purity

Kangxi did not turn over the cards today. After dealing with the affairs of state, he sat on the chair and pinched his brows tiredly.

"Your Majesty, you have been tired all day. I heard that the imperial kitchen prepared beef noodles and mutton soup today. Would you like to send some over?"

Liang Jiugong saw this and expressed his concern.

Kangxi didn't even raise his head:

"I don't have much of an appetite. Just ask someone to bring me a cup of milk tea to warm my stomach."

Upon hearing this, Liang Jiugong quickly gave orders, and the imperial kitchen immediately served the emperor a cup of fragrant milk tea shortly after hearing the order.

"Your Majesty, the milk tea is here."

Liang Jiugong carefully placed the milk tea next to the emperor where he could easily reach it.

Kangxi put down his hand and picked up the milk tea. Suddenly, a strong milky aroma came to his nose. He paused and his mind inexplicably recalled the fragrance he smelled today.

The fragrance is similar to the sweet scent of milk tea, but not as strong as that of milk tea. Instead, it is sweeter and just right, which is very impressive.

It was the first time he smelled it. It might be the prepared sachet. The thought flashed through his mind and he suddenly remembered something. He put down the milk tea and took out a paper star bracelet from his sleeve.

Looking at the paper stars above, I couldn’t help but think of the three wishes of Princess Shi Er.

Let’s not talk about the first two wishes for now, and just talk about the last one. She doesn’t ask for great wealth and honor, but only for the lover’s heart to be like hers. It can be seen that the little girl may seem timid and weak, but deep down she is a person who is indifferent to fame and fortune, and values righteousness and deep affection.

At this moment, I thought of the other person's beautiful handwriting.

Kangxi nodded affirmatively. No wonder he could write such beautiful calligraphy with such good character.

It's really good, worthy of being the future Crown Princess's sister, but this bracelet is a private item.

He thought of this at the time and put it away, but with his identity, it was not suitable for him to keep it. It would be better to return it if there was a chance.

Thinking of this, he handed the thing to Liang Jiugong:

"Put it away carefully." After saying that, he also reminded: "This thing is made of colored paper, don't let it get wet. Ask the palace maids who clean the house to be careful."

Liang Jiugong carefully took the thing and looked at the small paper star bracelet. He thought about the emperor's words, then took out a small box and put it away, placed it on the treasure rack, and then passed on the emperor's words. Then he quietly returned to stand beside the emperor.

The next day, because of a bee sting in the Imperial Garden, Nanny Yang reported the incident to the Empress Dowager and Noble Concubine Niuhulu who was assisting in the selection. The Empress Dowager and Noble Concubine Niuhulu were both kind and gentle. After expressing their concern, they asked Shi Nanxi and others to learn the rules in the morning and have a good rest in the afternoon.

However, the Empress Dowager was a little worried about Shi Rongyue, so she ordered someone to summon Shi Rongyue to Ningshou Palace after lunch.

After receiving the summons, Shi Rongyue wanted to bring Shi Nanxi with her, but then she changed her mind and thought that Shi Nanxi was stupid and timid and must not offend the Empress Dowager. Besides, she could take the opportunity of leaving Chuxiu Palace to see if she could meet Sisi again or find out the whereabouts of the prince. Then she could find a way to send Shi Nanxi to the other party.

Regardless of the purpose, Shi Nanxi was a burden, so she didn't mention it, but told the other party:

"I'm going to Ningshou Palace. You've always been introverted and timid, so stay in the room. Otherwise, you'll be bullied without me."

There’s nothing wrong with being bullied, but I’m just afraid of being schemed against and not being able to make it to the draft.

Nanny Hu, who came to invite Shi Rongyue, nodded secretly. Good, he knew how to protect his timid sister, which showed that he had a dignified and honest character.

Shi Nanxi nodded obediently. After seeing Shi Rongyue off, she took out the thousands of palace rules and regulations and continued to recite them silently. When she felt her brain was full of energy, she stood up and practiced calligraphy. When she finished writing a piece of calligraphy, Hongying carefully took it over.

Putting it aside to dry, she looked at the words on the rice paper and couldn't help but praise:

"Although I can't read, I think the Second Princess's handwriting is beautiful."

Shi Nanxi looked calm. This was a skill left by the original body, and also an advantage. Since it was an advantage, he had to be familiar with it and practice it better in order to develop greater advantages.

"We need to practice more."

Upon hearing this, Hongying was immediately filled with admiration. The more she served the Second Princess, the more she felt that the Second Princess was no worse than the First Princess, it was just that her inner beauty was not revealed in front of others.

After practicing ten characters, Shi Nanxi felt some pain in her wrist, so she stopped immediately, rubbed her wrist and sat on the couch to rest.

Hongying helped to dry the last piece of calligraphy. While waiting, she suddenly remembered that Ergege wanted to know more about the people in the palace, so as not to accidentally offend people or violate taboos in the future, so she said:

"Second Princess, when I went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to collect my share today, I unexpectedly heard someone in front of the emperor arranging for the palace maids to clean the main hall of Kunning Palace. They also said that the emperor was sighing that the prince had grown up and could get married."

Seeing that the words were dry, she carefully put them away and couldn't help but sigh:

"Speaking of which, the Emperor is even more loving and kind to His Royal Highness than the fathers of ordinary people outside the palace. The eldest princess will be blessed in the future."

When Shi Nanxi heard this, she paused rubbing her hands and said in surprise, "That's great! I'm so happy for my elder sister."

But a thought came to my mind. Since the imperial servants were cleaning the Kunning Palace, would Kangxi take time out in the near future to pay tribute to Empress Hesheli?

"You are happy for your elder sister..."

Suochao Luo Jiahui's voice suddenly sounded in the house, and the next moment she and Li Jiaming walked in.

"He went to see the Queen Mother but didn't bring you along. I'm afraid he doesn't care about him as much as you do!"

Shi Nanxi watched the two people come in, collected her thoughts, and stood up and greeted them hesitantly:

"Princess Socholuo, Princess Lijia."

Suochao Luo Jiahui raised her eyebrows and sat down on the embroidery stool in front of the dressing table opposite without any hesitation. Li Jiamingxiu automatically stood beside her.

"Why isn't Erge saying anything? Do you think you have nothing to refute?"

Shi Nanxi lowered her head, twisting her handkerchief nervously, looking nervous and apprehensive.

Hearing the question, she couldn't help biting her lip and mustered up the courage to whisper back:

"It's not that my elder sister didn't bring me along, it's that the Empress Dowager ordered that only my elder sister be summoned, so..."

Suochuoro Jiahui immediately interrupted Shi Nanxi with a sneer, raised her newly dyed red nail polish fingers, and deliberately stretched out her tone:

"The Empress Dowager didn't say anything, but Shi Rongyue didn't even ask. Does she really care about your sister's performance?"

How stupid! She is the future Crown Princess. Even if he really took his sister to Ningshou Palace, so what? But it depends on whether he has the intention to do so.

As expected, Shi Rongyue was a treacherous and hypocritical person. But how could such a person be summoned by the Empress Dowager? It must be because she was the designated Crown Princess, but that was robbed from her.

A flash of jealousy and resentment flashed across Suocho Luo Jiahui's eyes.

"Second Princess, although my cousin speaks bluntly, it is for your own good. Look, your elder sister has a bright future, but you are weak and your future is uncertain. If you can be summoned by the Empress Dowager, you will have more options."

Li Jiamingxiu also followed gently in agreement.

Shi Nanxi knew clearly in her heart that these two people just wanted to sow discord between her and Shi Rongyue, but she pretended to be stubborn and naive, as if she didn't understand, and said timidly and self-abased:

"My eldest sister has a bright future because she is excellent. I can't do that. I am useless and not smart..."

Shi Nanxi repeatedly talked about how excellent Shi Rongyue was and how bad she was. Suocho Luo Jiahui listened for a long time but was furious. Did she come to listen to how excellent Shi Rongyue was?

In the end, I couldn't hold back any longer and cursed out loud:

"Shut up, you idiot!"

Shi Nanxi looked up blankly, as if she didn't understand why the other party wanted to scold her for no reason. Li Jiamingxiu also frowned secretly.

Seeing her second princess being scolded, Hongying clenched her fists and was about to speak up to defend her master, but was suddenly interrupted by a sharp voice:

"This is Shi Gege's room. I, Xiao Xuzi from the Yikun Palace, have been ordered to lead Shi Gege to the Yikun Palace to meet Concubine Yi."
