Without the other odors of ambergris, it smelled particularly comfortable. From a distance, Wen Xi caught a glimpse of the sachet that Kangxi had picked up on the ground outside the tent and discarded like a rag. In the past, Wen Xi often went to Changping Palace, but it was just
I went with Kangxi and only came back after three to five days. In the past, as soon as Wen Xi returned to the palace, many concubines came to fawn over her, and Mi's concubine was also one of the best at fawning over her. But this time it was different.
Although the concubine was selected by Wen Xi, she has never been close to her. Everyone has ambitions, and she is no exception, but she didn't dare to have them before. In the days when Wen Xi was not around, she was the most favored.
, naturally her eyes were dazzled by all this love. She just wanted to be pampered, but she actually dared to allow her fourteenth brother to bully her son. This kind of gentleness could not be tolerated.
Wen Xi snuggled into Kangxi's arms and said softly: "Your Majesty, please don't pick on Yin Lu anymore!" As soon as Wen Xi left the palace, Kangxi didn't look good on her son.
Kangxi couldn't help but sneered: "This bastard... Huh, he thinks his acting skills are quite good!"
"Um..." Wen Xi touched his nose, which was what he taught Yin Lu not to show too much edge.
There was a smile like ripples in clear water in Kangxi's slanted red phoenix eyes, and he said in a calm tone: "I scolded you so much, but you can still hold back and not show off..." Kangxi nodded slightly, and said with a smile.
Wu praised, "Well, that's a good point. You know how to restrain your sharpness."
Wen Xi had no choice but to laugh dryly, and her voice was as smooth as water: "Although I don't want the emperor to care for Yinlu and Yinli more than other brothers, the emperor should not suppress them too much."
"Your concerns...I understand." Kangxi said in a kind tone, stroking his warm and loose temples, "In the future, I will treat the children Yinshan, Yinxiang, Yinzhen, Yinyou, Yinlu, and Yinli.
Try to treat everyone equally."
Wen Xi hummed, treating everyone equally is the best, and not showing any preference will not cause unnecessary jealousy and resentment. In this way, at least the brothers who are studying will not fight. Then she felt sad and her tone was low: "
Please also ask Your Majesty not to let your concubines be your favorites alone."
The gentle words couldn't help but have a sour meaning. If she was still the only one who loved her, then Kangxi did not deliberately love her two sons. Little Pomegranate and Little Peach would still arouse the jealousy of others. Kangxi's affection for
She was so good and gentle that she couldn't help but be touched. Maybe he had already touched her deep in her heart, but Wenxi had been avoiding it and refused to admit it. But for Wenxi, her children were more important than her husband. Then... she
I only like Kangxi a little bit, and if I feel sad for him one day, I will only feel a little bit sad...
"You!" Kangxi's tone was quite helpless, but Wen Xi could tell that Kangxi had already agreed.
"It's just -" Wen Xi glanced at the sachet outside the tent, "When the emperor comes to my concubine's palace, don't smell of other women. I will be sad." The concubine's little thoughts of competing for favor are not what Wen Xi thinks.
I don’t know, so her tone is particularly sour. She is also a woman, and women are naturally jealous. She used to be cold-hearted and refused to love this man, but after many years, she is not hard-hearted. Apart from being unable to be single-minded, Kangxi is indeed
She has done a good enough job. What's more, this man is the father of her daughter and two sons. He is her husband of more than ten years, how can he not be emotionless at all?!
"I, I really don't know what to do with you! If you want me to pamper others, why don't I smell like others! I really don't know if you are virtuous or jealous!" Kangxi's tone became more helpless, pinching.
He pinched the tip of his warm nose and couldn't help but feel more affection in his eyes.
"Being virtuous is too difficult, and concubines can never achieve it," Wen Xi admitted frankly. As a woman, it was already difficult for her to endure her husband having so many concubines. How could she endure being reminded every day?
Did his husband have a good time with the woman next to him last night? Wen Xi continued: "I don't want others to think that I am jealous - it is even more tiring to bear the name of jealousy!" For example, Ba Fu Jin, who is usually public
I don’t know how to restrain myself, but will my life be better? The answer is no.
Kangxi nodded his gentle eyebrows and said, "You are such a greedy woman!"
Wen Xi smiled, and she admitted the word "greedy".
Kangxi inadvertently put his hand under the pillow and touched something that seemed to be silk thread. He took it out and asked casually: "This is..."
Wen Xi immediately blushed. Wen Xi only dared to do such a handiwork when she was alone. She didn't dare to show it to anyone after it was done, so she hid it under the pillow and planned to take it apart tomorrow. Unexpectedly, Kangxi was
After feeling it out, Wen Xi hurriedly tried to snatch it away: "That's not for you!"
Kangxi pursed his lips, a proud smile appeared on his brows, and suddenly lifted up the crooked crotch wrapped in the silk thread, to a height that Wen Xi couldn't reach.
Wen Xi hurriedly got up, and Kangxi also stood up on the bed, still holding the thing high, to a height that Wen Xi could not reach even on tiptoes. Wen Xi's face turned purple with anger, and she shouted: "Pay it back quickly.
Give me!"
Kangxi pinched the thing with his fingers, played with it in the palm of his hand, looked at it carefully, and said with a loud laugh: "This is... an auspicious knot? Well, when did my beloved concubine get a knot? I didn't even know!"
Her face was burning with heat, so she had no choice but to reply: "I just learned it in the past two days! I'm just practicing! This doesn't count!"
Although the auspicious knot is simple, it is indeed a beautiful and meaningful knot. However, the workmanship is poor, not only is it loose and muscleless, it is also asymmetrical, and the tassels below are not neat at all, as if they are broken by a touch.
It seemed like they were about to fall apart! However, Kangxi saw the smile in his eyes getting stronger and he said: "I don't mind it!" As he said that, he actually put it into his arms!
"Hey -" Wen Xi was so angry that she wanted to stamp her feet, "I told you it wasn't for you!"
"If you don't give it to me, who will you give it to?" Kangxi raised his eyebrows and joked, "Since my beloved concubine has learned how to tie the knot for my sake, I will naturally not dislike my beloved concubine's craftsmanship."
"I didn't learn it for you!" Wen Xi looked embarrassed, her cheeks were as red as sunset, and her anxious look was really cute and pitiful in Kangxi's eyes!
"My beloved concubine's love is the rarest. I will definitely wear it with me." Kangxi didn't listen to Wen Xi's words at all, and smiled more and more triumphantly. It seemed that his machismo was greatly satisfied.
Conscience of heaven and earth! Wen Xi wailed in her heart. She really didn’t learn to tie knots because of Kangxi. First, she was bored because of the long night, and second, she was so greedy when she saw the beautiful knots made by bamboo. She heard Kangxi say
Wanting to "wear it with you", Wen Xi suddenly became anxious and shouted: "No! You can't wear it on your body! If the important people see it, I won't be laughed to death!" Even the ten princesses in the palace are better at tying the knot than her.
Okay! If Kangxi wore something like that to show off, would Wen Xi be shameless?!
Kangxi couldn't help but burst into laughter, and hurriedly comforted Wen Xi and said: "At the worst, I promise you to keep it in your arms from now on, just don't let others see it."
Wen Xi muttered: "Give that to me, and I'll make a better one for you!" Even if this kind of embarrassing thing is not seen by others, I'm afraid Kangxi will use it to make fun of Wen Xi! It must be given
Come back and destroy the corpse and eliminate all traces!
Kangxi held it tightly in his arms and said, "Let's wait until you do something better!" Kangxi touched his chin and said, "Just learn to make a concentric knot. Didn't my beloved concubine say that concentric knot means eternal knot?"
Are we of the same mind? Then learn from it and make one for me! I will return this to you."
Wen Xi's face suddenly fell. The concentric knot is not an auspicious knot, is it difficult to make? !! Wen Xi's little hands-on ability will definitely have to learn next year... I don't know if I can learn it. But looking at Kangxi's appearance, Wen Xi
You'll know if it's coming!
Kangxi narrowed his eyes and smiled and said: "It's getting late, let's get settled! I have to go to court tomorrow."
The next day, I got up extra late. Who said I rested too late last night?
Early in the morning, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent people to send Wenxi's proportion of furs again. They were all mink furs of the best quality. Wenxi had made a lot of money this year. No wonder they came in such a hurry.
I sent it off, because Ling Pu, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, was punished by Kangxi for thirty years early in the morning, and everyone in the Ministry of Internal Affairs was also asked to watch. Naturally, they rushed up to fawn over him.
After sending away the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Wen Xi asked the palace maids to prepare silk threads and other things for tying the knots, mainly in bright red and purple colors. As the year was approaching, naturally they were brought with brightly colored silk threads.
The concentric knot is one of the many kinds of knots. It expresses the love between men and women. This thing has been around since ancient times. With double belts around the waist, dreaming of concentric knots is also a good wish. It often becomes a woman's wish.
A young girl in love gave this gift to her beloved man to express her feelings. Thinking of this, Wen Xi sighed softly. She was already in her thirties and had several children, but she still had to live with her youngest daughter.
You want to learn this kind of thing! Where can you put your old face?! Zhu'er, who is born as a master, always looks at her with an ambiguous look, which makes Wenxi feel hairy in her heart. Wenxi is also embarrassed to tell Zhuer, the reason is
She made a particularly ugly concentric knot and it was taken away by Kangxi, so she had to exchange it for another concentric knot.
Luozi is also called "绦子", also known as "knot", and Daluozi is a common name. The corners of Zhu'er's mouth are slightly raised, with a lingering smile, and his hands are flying dexterously, like a fluttering butterfly, Zhu'er
While tying the knot leisurely, he explained: "Master, don't worry, this concentric knot is easy to tie! Master, if you are a beginner, just use one color of silk thread. You don't need to learn the five-color concentric knot first, just the single-color one."
Just fine...."
Wen Xi saw that the beating was going very fast, and she became more and more dizzy. She hurriedly shouted to stop: "Slow down..."
Zhu'er said oh, "I have already tied it." Zhu'er put the big red concentric knot in the palm of her warm hand, "Master, this slave knows five kinds of concentric knots, this one is the simpler one, and
The wish-fulfilling knot is similar, but it is wrapped in a heart shape up and down, left and right, and there is also a heart-to-heart style, which one do you want to learn?"
Wen Xi lowered her head and looked at it. It was small and exquisite, and it was indeed cute and tight. The key was that it didn't look difficult, "Just learn this!"
Zhu'er chuckled and said: "This idea is also very good, it's called wishful thinking!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest support)
