Qing Dynasty: After Kangxi Kowloon heard my voice

Chapter 119: The Annoying Ghost Wen Yao

Kangxi complained angrily, and Wen Yao was choked. [Jiu Ye and you are definitely biological children. This sharp tongue is inherited!]

Kangxi almost couldn't maintain his expression. How could this be possible if this wasn't his biological child?

How bold! Never mind. He had already seen how bold she was.

"You've already done it, what else are you talking about?" Kangxi raised his eyelids, "Oh, you're holding a gift? It tastes good, bring it over and have a look."

"Father Emperor, this is for Mother. You have to ask her for it." Wen Yao saw that Kangxi looked very good and was not angry, so she pressed the issue decisively. "Don't be angry first. Just say that I didn't know you were in the Yikun Palace. If I knew you were there, I would be spying on the Emperor. Also, your share has been sent to the Qianqing Palace."

"Look, I only said two sentences, and she is waiting here for so many sentences. Concubine Yi, look at your daughter-in-law," Kangxi immediately looked at Concubine Yi with a hint of accusation on his face. This Concubine Xiaojiu's mouth was so irritating, and the key was that she was always reasonable.

"What belongs to me is the emperor, how can we still distinguish between each other? Wen Yao is a very honest child. Hurry up and open the box to show it to the emperor. Don't make the emperor angry." Concubine Yi took the box with a smile and opened it herself. "Is this the soft jerky that Yinlu mentioned?"

"Yes, these are small steaks. They are made from sacrificial meat that is beaten three thousand times with a special small hammer. After going through dozens of processes..." Wen Yao was interrupted by Kangxi before she could finish her words.

"Ahem... I am the emperor. If you lie in front of me again, it will be a crime of deceiving the emperor," Kangxi raised his eyelids and looked at Wen Yao. Concubine Yi lowered her head with a smile in her eyes.

Wen Yao smacked her lips and said, "Three thousand times is used to describe a large number of times. It doesn't necessarily mean three thousand times, but just a few dozen times. As for the process, from fat to pork ribs, it goes through several processes." Anyway, ten processes is also considered a few processes.

Kangxi raised his eyelids. It was already too much if he believed half of what Concubine Xiaojiu said, but he should not believe it all. If he believed it all, then he would believe that one day the sun would rise from the west.

"Father, mother, please try it. Little Pomegranate really likes it. Wen Yao came here just to give her some small chops. Fortunately, I prepared more." Wen Yao breathed a sigh of relief. [Fortunately, I had just given the portion for Concubine Niu Hulu to her first, otherwise I would not have been able to ask for it.]

Kangxi then remembered that Concubine Nianhulu was in the Yikun Palace, and thought of the child Xiao Shi. That child was a sentimental child. This Concubine Xiao Jiu had many bad points, but like Xiao Shi, she was loyal, righteous, and filial. That was enough.

"Little Pomegranate? Pomegranate is a good nickname. Liutongliu is also good," Kangxi nodded to Wei Zhu beside him. Wei Zhu had summoned the eunuch who tested poison. After the eunuch tasted the poison, Kangxi picked up a piece and started eating it. Then Concubine Yi picked up a piece herself.

"It's not as chewy as the meat in a meat shop, it's just the right amount of tender, with a hint of burnt aroma," Concubine Yi liked the taste very much. She lowered her head to look at her clothes. Since Xiaojiu's wedding, Wen Yao has been coming to Yikun Palace every day, and she can hardly wear any more clothes. "Your Majesty, since Wen Yao came, I'm almost going to have to remake my clothes."

"Speaking of this, the last time I went to Qixiang Palace and Concubine He's place, Concubine He had asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make new clothes. She also said that Concubine Xiaojiu joked that they were fed so well that they became plump and white," Kangxi glanced at Wen Yao who was grinning. She didn't look like the well-educated and well-mannered girl she was during the selection. The woman smiled without showing her teeth.

"Look at the way this guy is smiling. He mentioned this to Xiaojiu the other day, and Xiaojiu told me that that was his wife's true nature. Look!" Kangxi got angry when he talked about this. Before he could say anything, Xiaojiu and Xiaoshi had a bunch of excuses waiting for him, and in the end, Xiaoshi cheated him out of 12,000 taels of silver.

[That’s right, Father Emperor, you should know that the truth hurts! ] Wen Yao felt that everything was someone else’s fault, and that she was not at fault, so she would not be pua. Although she would become a common person in the end, it was better than being pua.

When Kangxi was about to speak, Wen Yao quickly stood up and said, "Father, Mother, I have an appointment with Concubine He. Father and Mother, you guys go ahead and chat. I'll take my leave now." She quickly backed away and when she reached the palace gate, she turned around and left.

Kangxi laughed angrily, "You are quite considerate." Did he know that he was going to scold him?

"Why does the emperor always care about Wen Yao? She is just... a child, similar to the eighth princess Wen Ke. Wen Ke was very happy today. Wen Yao often called them in recent days. Wen Ke, Dun Ke, the sixth princess and the ninth princess also often go to the prince's residence," Concubine Yi smiled and drank a sip of milk tea.

Kangxi's eyes changed from amusement to depth, "Wen Ke?" Born by Concubine Min. Kangxi thought of Concubine Min and Yonghe Palace. He had already made a general idea of the investigation. The remaining details, which happened a long time ago, would take time. Kangxi had already declined any interest in Yonghe Palace.

Kangxi currently feels guilty about Concubine Min. "Speaking of Wen Ke reminds me of Concubine Min. Concubine Min was a gentle person. I didn't expect that she left me so early."

Concubine Yi also had a trace of sadness on her face. "Your Majesty is right. You also know that Concubine De and I have different personalities, but I still know Concubine Min in Yonghe Palace. I met her in the Imperial Garden before and talked to her. Concubine Min has a gentle personality. When she talked about the Thirteenth Prince before, her brows were full of energy. I don't know when she looked so sad. Slowly, her health deteriorated. I feel like Concubine Min is still here now."

Kangxi narrowed his eyes, not knowing when he looked sad. He knew when Kangxi regained his composure in an instant. "Min Fei has a gentle temperament, but she is also thoughtful," Kangxi held Yi Fei's hand, "but I like you the most. You have your own opinions and are not influenced by outsiders."

"Because I firmly believe in my heart that the emperor will not despise me and will always uphold the promise I made to him," Concubine Yi said with confidence. She really thought so. Maybe the emperor has other favorites, but she firmly believes that she is different in the emperor's heart.

Kangxi tapped Concubine Yi's forehead and said, "I will always remember you," and held Concubine Yi's hand tightly, "We will grow old together."

If Wen Yao was here, she would definitely complain. Fortunately, Wen Yao was not here. At this moment, she really went to Qixiang Palace, because if she didn't go, it would be deceiving the emperor. The stingy Kangxi might find something to hold against her, so Wen Yao went to Qixiang Palace.

"Ninth sister-in-law!" After knowing that Wen Yao had arrived, Xu Jing quickly came to Hepin's place, "Hepin's mother, Xu Jing also wants to eat with you."

Hepin smiled and looked at Xun Jing, "Okay, I can't chase you away, Xun Jing, call your mother over, it will be more lively with more of us."

"I'll go right away!" Xu Jing went out immediately.

"Why doesn't Concubine He ask me to invite her?" Wen Yao asked with a little confusion.
