The Fourth Master's Favorite Concubine from the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 15 Meeting Kangxi
Outside Changchun Garden
Prince Yong Yinzhen brought his concubine Jin Geng and a pair of twins to meet Kangxi outside.

Changchun Garden has always been the royal palace of the emperor in Rehe. According to rumors, Kangxi also died in Changchun Garden.

Qingyou is very interested in Changchun Garden. From a distance, Changchun Garden seems to be a fusion of the characteristics of Jiangnan gardens and palace gardens. The buildings are simple, mostly small rolling sheds with tile roofs. , not painted, but it has a unique charm if you look closely.

She was about to meet Kangxi, the most important emperor of all time. Qingyou was still a little excited. If she said that she liked Yongzheng as a historical figure, then she admired Kangxi. Kangxi's contributions were countless. Without Kangxi's contribution to bringing peace to the world, If so, there would be no peace and prosperity under the rule of Yongzheng and Qianlong. It can be said that Kangxi's "benevolence and virtue govern merit" has been passed down to later generations.

But it would be a big mistake to think that Kangxi was a kind father. Let’s not talk about the case of deposing the crown prince in the forty-seventh year of Kangxi two years ago. At that time, Kangxi deposed the crown prince because the crown prince Yin Reng was cruel and unkind, ignored brotherhood, and spied on the emperor at night. The next day He told his ancestors to depose Yin Reng as the crown prince. Qingyou didn't believe it if there was nothing fishy between them. At that time, he was serving in another palace, and his own Ama even sent a message to him, telling him to remind Sibeile not to get involved. In the incident of the deposed prince, he also warned himself that the water behind him was deep and he could not act rashly. After receiving the letter, he handed it into the hands of Fourth Master. After that, even if Fourth Master recovered from his illness, he stayed in another hospital for a long time under the pretext of recuperation, and only returned to the capital after everything settled.

The emperor's thirteenth son Yinxiang was so favored by the emperor at that time, but the next day, he was secretly escorted to the beekeeping corridor. The fourth master and the thirteenth master were not real brothers, but they were better than real brothers. But what happened to the thirteenth master But he was unable to do anything and could only take care of Shisan's family secretly behind his back. This shows how cruel the incident at that time was.

Therefore, Qingyou was more nervous about facing Kangxi for a while.

Entering Changchun Garden, Qingyou followed the fourth master and his two children and knelt down to greet Kangxi, "My sons/servants, please greet the emperor. May the emperor be blessed with peace."

Kangxi shouted lightly and stood up. He didn't seem to be very interested in Qingyou, the concubine, but he was very interested in the two children held by the wet nurse behind him.

He quickly asked someone to bring the child to Kangxi.

Unlike Yinzhen who loved his daughter, Kangxi seemed to prefer Tuantuan who looked quiet, and even picked up Tuantuan in his wet nurse.

He was still teasing the child beside him, "You know who I am." Kangxi was just teasing the child and did not expect Tuantuan's reply. After all, the child, who was only seven or eight months old, could not talk about it, and he had never met anyone there. Live your life.

But the next second, what shocked everyone was,

Tuantuan, who was in Kangxi's arms, jumped out word by word. "Grandpa Huang" was slow but his enunciation was very clear.

This made Kangxi laugh.

Yinzhen and Qingyou hurriedly apologized below, saying frankly that they had never taught Hongzhou in private, and that Hongzhou had not even called anyone out until now. This was the first time, and Yinzhen himself did not think of it.

As for whether Kangxi believed it or not, Yinzhen didn't know, because Kangxi's attention was attracted in the next second by the chirping Yuanyuan next to him.

Yuanyuan was at the side, being held by the wet nurse. When she saw that her brother was being held by a stranger, but she was in the arms of the wet nurse, she suddenly felt that it was unfair, and she immediately hugged the wet nurse. The stranger's gaze attracted his brother.

Seeing Kangxi looking at him, he immediately opened his arms and motioned for Kangxi to hug him.

Kangxi was very happy to see such a child who was not afraid of birth, and held both children in his arms. At this time, Kangxi was like an ordinary old man, holding his grandson with no sense of distance. But at this time, Qingyou didn't dare to take it lightly. This was the famous Emperor Kangxi, and Yuanyuan, who was usually mischievous, was still in Kangxi's arms. She didn't even know what she would do in the next second, as a mother, so Qingyou Seeing the kinder Kangxi, he subconsciously became more respectful.

All this was seen by Liang Jiugong who was beside Kangxi.

Sure enough, in the next second, Kangxi's beard was caught in Yuanyuan's hand.

When Yinzhen and Qingyou saw this scene, they were so frightened that they almost fell out of their wits, and they quickly knelt down to apologize.

Not only was Kangxi not angry when he saw this scene, he waved his hand for Yinzhen and Qingyou to get up. He also said to Yuanyuan with a smile, "You really like Grandpa Huang? You insist on grabbing Grandpa Huang's beard, but this way Grandpa Huang will It hurts, so our Tana, please let go.”

Yuanyuan didn't seem to understand who the person in front of her was calling, but she understood the word "release". Not only did she release her hold on Kangxi's beard, but she also gave Kangxi a toothless smile. Next, I kept ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh what I was talking about, and I was shaking my little hands when I was excited.

Kangxi was puzzled.

Seeing this, Qingyou quickly explained, "The name given by Emperor Ama was a great blessing to the two children. I was afraid that the children would not be able to hold back this blessing, so I privately named them Tuan Tuan Yuan. In private, everyone is calling Yuanyuan, so Tana may not know it is her, but she tells you that her name is Yuanyuan." Qingyou said she had no pressure at all to put the blame on the Fourth Master. , who makes him the child’s Amma.

After Kangxi heard this, he shouted "Tuanyuanyuan". The two children were also very considerate and gave Kangxi a big toothless smile, which made Kangxi smile happily.

After a while, Yinzhen and Qingyou were allowed to go back with their children.

After Qingyou and Yinzhen left, Kangxi immediately sent Liang Jiugong to find out whether the two had deliberately taught Hong Zhou to please him in private.

Although Kangxi loved children very much on the surface, the suspicion of being an emperor still made Kangxi a little wary, even when facing his direct grandson.

Soon Liang Jiugong came in with a reply.

Kangxi looked at the reply and fell into deep thought. If Qingyou saw this investigation at this time, he would definitely be frightened, because it not only included the big and small matters of Prince Yong's Mansion, but also recorded everything he said in his daily life.

After a long time, Kangxi seemed to be asking Liang Jiugong. From this point of view, what happened today was indeed an accident, and there was no human involvement. Moreover, this Geng Shu Fujin was a good person and did not have those messy thoughts.

Liang Jiugong thought for a while and said, "I observed this concubine Fujin today. He has a measured advance and retreat. He does not seem to be scheming. Moreover, the two elder brothers and Princess who taught him are very lively and cute."

After Kangxi heard this, he waved Liang Jiugong to retreat while he slowly thought about it.
