The most favored princess in the imperial harem, the delicate little princess of Emperor Kangxi
Chapter 251: Emperors Have Always Been Unfeeling
"Okay, my lady!"
Walk beside the table and help with grinding.
Harigana glanced at her and then shook his head.
In fact, even if Kangxi hadn't said it that day, she wouldn't be angry about these things. They were just insignificant people.
But no matter how angry she is, since she has appeared, she should be a good tool and play her role.
"Dulan, tell the cooks from Qingxi Palace to make some small cakes. Once they're done, pack a few of them, along with the sweet-scented osmanthus wine from yesterday, and send them all to Ningshou Palace for the Empress Dowager.
Oh, and don't forget to send it to the Empress Dowager, too. Remember, have Li Dequan do it."
Something needs to be delivered, but nothing can go wrong.
The kitchen is the small kitchen in the Qianqing Palace. The person who delivers things is Kangxi's personal eunuch, and the purchasing is also done by the emperor's people. Even if the old woman wants to find something to do, she has to rack her brains.
"Yes! I'll go right away, slave."
Du Lan ran out to arrange the staff and came back soon.
"My Lady! It's already been arranged. It will be delivered as soon as it's finished."
Harigana nodded without saying anything, still concentrating on writing the big characters.
She was very calm, but everyone in the harem had some expectations.
"What did you say? Your Majesty, did the Emperor really go to the harem?"
Concubine Hui and Concubine Liang got together and talked for a long time.
After Liangpin was promoted, she became the principal lady of a palace and had moved to Jingyang Palace long ago.
But even after going to Jingyang Palace, she would come to pay her respects to Concubine Hui every day.
It was not because she respected Concubine Hui so much, but because the eighth prince Yinsi was raised by Concubine Hui.
Now, the emperor has only nine sons, and except for the fifth and eighth princes, all of them are with their biological mother.
It’s not that Concubine Liang didn’t have any thoughts about it, but she was born cowardly and was not favored at all. If it weren’t for the Eighth Prince, she might not even have the position of concubine.
So even though she really wanted to ask the emperor to return the Eighth Prince, she just thought about it and didn't dare to go to Kangxi at all.
Looking at her chubby son, Concubine Liang wanted to hug him, but she was afraid that Concubine Hui would disagree, so she was stunned for a moment.
"Liangpin, I'm asking you a question, can't you hear me?"
Concubine Hui just couldn't stand Concubine Liang's timid nature. She had the courage to climb into the emperor's bed and gave birth to a prince, but in the end it was still useless.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was lost in thought. Please punish me."
Liangpin hurriedly knelt on the ground to apologize, looking extremely frightened, which made Huifei even more annoyed.
He waved his hand and gave the maid a look, indicating her to carry Yinsi out.
"Okay, get up quickly.
It's because I'm generous. If you met a stronger one, you would have lost a layer of skin today."
Liangpin's face flushed, and when she woke up, Yinsi was no longer in the hall.
"Thank you, empress."
He withdrew his gaze, composed himself, sat down in his seat, lowered his brows, and waited for Concubine Hui to ask him questions.
Concubine Hui, who was already in a bad mood, became even angrier when she saw her like this.
"Okay, go back first. I still have things to take care of. I'll call you over when I'm done.
You don’t need to come these days.”
Liangpin had originally planned to bring the Eighth Prince the clothes she had sewn herself when she came tomorrow, but now she heard that Huifei meant that she didn't need to come.
He opened his mouth to say something, but when he met Concubine Hui's unfriendly look, he didn't say anything in the end.
"Yes! Your Majesty, I obey your command!"
After Liangpin left, Huifei chuckled: "You don't know what you're talking about. You even want to snatch the child from me. You really don't know your own limitations."
Regardless of whether she is the favorite concubine now, she is the head of the four concubines. As long as she does not make any mistakes, the emperor can return the child to her.
Although Lao Ba is not her biological son, she raised him since he was a child.
It's not her biological child, but it's better than her biological child. How could I possibly return it to her?
"Go and find out if what Concubine Liang said is true. If it is, we have to take action.
I am an elder in the Emperor's residence. Even if I am not the first, I will not be the last."
Concubine Hui pointed at the maid beside her and said, "Be careful, don't let anyone find out."
The maidservant retreated, leaving Concubine Hui sitting alone in a daze.
In the Qianqing Palace, when Kangxi heard the news from Li Dequan, his first reaction was to go and explain to Harigana.
"Where's the Imperial Concubine?"
Kangxi put down his brush, stood up and was about to go to the backyard, but Li Dequan quickly stopped him: "Your Majesty, Lady Mingzhu is waiting at the door."
Li Dequan lowered his head and did not dare to look at the emperor.
He didn't call the person, and he didn't conceal the news. It was just that the two things happened at the same time.
"Tell him to come in!"
Kangxi sat back down on the Dragonborn: "Wait!"
He called to Li Dequan who was walking to the door and said, "Send the letter to the Imperial Concubine."
As he said this, he picked up the brush, wrote a few words, folded it, and handed it to Li Dequan.
"Go ahead, and be sure to hand it over to the Imperial Concubine personally."
Nalan Mingzhu must have had some clues, otherwise he wouldn't have come to him so soon. Moreover, Hesheli can no longer delay, otherwise it will easily cause unrest.
"Yes! I obey your command!"
Li Dequan put the letter into his sleeve, called Nalan Mingzhu in, closed the door of the imperial study, and then went to the back to deliver the letter.
Not to mention, he is quite willing to do such errands. Not only will he not be scolded, but he can also be lazy, which is pretty good.
At this moment, Harigana was watching them making small cakes in the small kitchen, with a chef from the Qianqing Palace standing beside her. The reason for this was to let them learn, but in fact it was to prevent the Empress Dowager from causing trouble with her over food.
"Your servant pays respects to the Empress!"
Li Dequan stood beside Harigana and saluted to greet him.
I heard from Little Li that when she was in the small kitchen, she thought she was making soup for the emperor herself, but she didn't expect that the emperor was just standing at the door watching them work, and had no intention of helping at all.
The air was filled with a sweet smell that felt very familiar, but I didn't know where I had smelled it before.
"Li Dequan? Hurry up and get up. Do you need anything from me?"
Li Dequan hurriedly presented the letter in his hand to Harigana, not daring to delay for a moment.
He took the letter from Li Dequan but didn't open it directly: "Where's the emperor? Is he busy?"
"Your Majesty, Master Mingzhu is in the imperial study."
If it were someone else, he would definitely not say it, but this living ancestor must be coaxed well.
Seeing her happy expression, she probably hasn't heard the news yet. What if she gets angry that the emperor didn't come to see her after reading the letter?
So, an honest answer is best.
"I understand, just wait."
I took the letter and went to the study, then opened it and read its contents.
Sure enough, it was almost as she guessed, but a little earlier.
It seems that he is not unaware of what is happening in the harem, but he can pretend not to know.
Although the conclusion has been reached long ago, now that it has been confirmed, I suddenly feel that it is true that emperors have always been so heartless.
