Chapter 292 Watching the Sunset Chen Agrees to See You
A lot of things happened during this trip to Mulan Paddock. First, an adulterer was caught in public, and then there was the horrific human pig incident. Both made Kangxi in a bad mood and he lost face in front of the Mongolian princes.
In the days that followed, Kangxi always let the crown prince come forward, and everyone was very cautious and followed the rules for fear of accidentally becoming cannon fodder.
In a blink of an eye, ten days have passed since Longkodo caused a scene at the banquet, and tomorrow we will set off for the Forbidden City.
Shi Nanxi walked into the imperial tent holding a teacup and saw Kangxi concentrating on reviewing memorials. She walked lightly and replaced the cold tea carefully.
Kangxi didn't even raise his head, his eyes were always on the memorials, and a line appeared between his eyebrows. Shi Nanxi didn't say anything either, put down the teacup, quietly retreated to the table on the other side, picked up a book and started reading.
It was unknown how long it had been before Kangxi pinched his brows, put down the memorial, picked up the teacup, but his mind was still thinking about what was happening in the court.
Recently, Longkodo's demotion caused a series of turmoil in the court. There were too many things to deal with, and the tea was put down before he even had a sip.
"But the tea I brewed doesn't suit Your Majesty's taste?"
At this time, Shi Nanxi came over without knowing when, stretched out a pair of soft hands from behind and gently placed them on Kangxi's shoulders, pinching them lightly, and spoke in a gentle tone:
"Your Majesty has been dealing with palace affairs for the entire day. Your health is important. You should combine work with rest and take a proper rest!"
Smelling the familiar scent, Kangxi relaxed, leaned back in his chair, and said in a hoarse voice:
"When did you arrive? You've been waiting for a long time, haven't you? That dog slave Liang Jiugong is getting more and more tactless. He didn't even bother to inform me!"
Shi Nanxi kept moving, and smiled as she heard the words:
"It has nothing to do with Chief Steward Liang. I didn't want to disturb the emperor, so I didn't let him report it. You, don't change the subject. I'm talking to you about rest."
In the past ten days or so, Kangxi was very busy due to a series of events triggered by the Longkodo incident, and she spent most of her time resting in her tent.
He would come over during the day, but would not stay long. He would usually come over to take a look, give food, and give some instructions.
Kangxi was not angry. He held the hand on his shoulder and exerted a little force, and Shi Nanxi was about to sit on Kangxi's lap.
Shi Nanxi quickly put her arms around Kangxi's neck to steady her body, then glanced at Kangxi, who felt a little happier when he saw this.
He smiled and stroked Shi Nanxi's cheek, which was warm, soft, white and smooth. His hand slowly slid to her chin and gently lifted it up.
Shi Nanxi met Kangxi's gaze, realized something, her eyelashes trembled, and she slowly closed her eyes. Soon, she was covered by a slightly cool lip.
He first bit my lower lip, then pried open my lips and teeth, exploring inside, rolling and grinding, like the sunshine on a winter afternoon, gentle and lingering.
Kangxi didn't stop until Shi Nanxi was almost out of breath. He rested his forehead against Shi Nanxi's, and their breathing was still intertwined.
Shi Nanxi's eyes were moist and a little dazed, and she slowly calmed her breathing.
"I've wronged you."
Kangxi suddenly spoke up. Logically speaking, Longkodo should have been sentenced to death for his suicidal behavior that day, but Kangxi spared his life because of Longkodo's identity.
Shi Nanxi blinked her eyes before she realized what Kangxi meant. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. For her, the matter was over.
But he said softly:
"Your Majesty, I have not been wronged. On the contrary, Your Majesty protected me that day, like a god, and severely punished Longkodo. I don't know how happy I am. How could I feel wronged?"
Kangxi was a soft-hearted person. His little girl was always so considerate and kind-hearted, but Longkodo wanted her to die.
"I will compensate you."
Next month is the little girl's birthday, and it's a good opportunity to add insult to injury by raising her status. The reason why Longkodo dared to slander the little girl so unscrupulously and even wanted to kill her was because he was bullying her because her status was not high.
Since it's not high enough, he will promote her to a higher position and see who will be so blind as to bully the little girl in the future.
However, I have to go back and inform the Queen Mother about this matter, so that she won't be dissatisfied with the girl.
Kangxi has already considered every aspect of Shi Nanxi's promotion. This is the difference between liking someone and disliking someone.
When Shi Nanxi heard Kangxi's words, she had an idea and her heart started beating fast. In order to prevent Kangxi from noticing, she suppressed her fast heartbeat and deliberately changed the subject:
"Your Majesty, we will be leaving for the Forbidden City tomorrow. I haven't had a good look at Mulan Paddock yet. Could you please take me out for a walk before we leave?"
The last syllable of the sentence was drawn out, with a bit of soft coquettishness. Kangxi felt a little guilty when he heard it. He was the one who ignored the little girl, so he agreed immediately.
"it is good."
Soon, Shi Nanxi followed Kangxi out of the imperial tent and came to the stable. Kangxi took Shi Nanxi to a horse and introduced it:
"This is my Ferghana horse, named Zidian. It is extremely fast, like lightning. You can touch it."
As he spoke, Kangxi reached out and touched Zidian's head. Zidian immediately moved closer with a friendly attitude. Kangxi's brows softened, and it seemed that he really liked her.
Shi Nanxi looked at the horse named Zidian with curiosity. It was indeed a Ferghana horse, even its hair looked exceptionally vigorous.
She tentatively imitated Kangxi and touched its head. It looked at her and did not refuse. Instead, it rubbed against Shi Nanxi's palm. It was Shi Nanxi's first time to touch a horse, so she was very curious and liked it a little.
Kangxi looked at this scene with a softer look in his eyes. He patted Zi Dian's horse's back, then jumped onto the horse with a nimble figure and stretched out his hand to Shi Nanxi.
Shi Nanxi put her hand on it, and the next moment, Kangxi exerted force, and Shi Nanxi sat on Kangxi's chest, with her whole body tightly embraced by him.
Shi Nanxi couldn't help but exclaimed, but Kangxi laughed softly behind her, and soon he shouted:
"drive."
Zi Dian hadn't gone out for a run for a long time, and when he went out, he was very excited.
Shi Nanxi was a little scared at first, but although Zi Dian ran fast, he was very steady. With Kangxi behind him, he gradually gained courage. He faced the wind, feeling high and as if he was flying freely.
The sky was high and the clouds were vast, stretching as far as the eye could see. Listening to the hearty laughter of the person he loved, Kangxi's depressed mood gradually dissipated. The two of them ran all the way to the edge of a cliff before stopping.
It was just sunset at this time, and the golden light illuminated the afterglow of the sky, like a beautiful painting, dreamy, beautiful, quiet and beautiful, which made people intoxicated.
"Your Majesty, the sunset here is so beautiful." Shi Nanxi murmured, as if her soul had been baptized.
Kangxi hugged the little girl tightly in his arms, with a smile on his face:
"Well, it's very beautiful!" There is also another sentence: It looks better when I watch it with you.
On the other hand, after hearing the news that the Emperor took Concubine Xian out for horseback riding, Concubine Nianhulu's face twisted for a moment. Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian, is it really like she thought, that the Emperor has fallen in love with Concubine Xian?
At this moment, the young eunuch came in and reported:
"Your Highness, Chen agrees to see you."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Nianhulu regained her composure and narrowed her eyes.
What did Chen agree to do? He was suspicious and said:
"Let her in."
