Qing Dynasty: After Kangxi Kowloon heard my voice

Chapter 284: More Bitter Than Coptis Chinensis

"Third sister-in-law?" Wen Yao stood in front of the gate of Zhongcui Palace and saw the Third Lady in the front yard. Why is she here so early...ah, no, it's not early anymore!

"Why are you here again?" Sanfujin stopped following Rongfei who was taking Hongqing with her, turned around and looked at the newcomers. As Wenyao approached, she lowered her voice a little, "Why are you like a street ghost?"

"What street ghost? I'm here to pay my respects to Mother Rong. You really don't know how to talk." Wen Yao dodged the hand that the Third Lady was trying to hit her with and walked in decisively. "Mother Rong, Wen Yao is here to pay her respects to you. Hong Qing, have you missed Aunt Nine?"

"Ninth Aunt!" Hong Qing just heard the voice of her own Ninth Aunt. She leaned on Rong Fei's arms and waved her little hand to Wen Yao, "Ma, Hong Qing wants to go find Ninth Aunt."

Rong Fei put Hong Qing down, "Slow down," Rong Fei stood up and followed behind, looking at Wen Yao who came in, "Hong Qing finally came once and you took her away."

"Hongqing, your mama is jealous and is blaming the imperial aunt for taking you away. You have been in the palace for almost a month and the imperial aunt has only hugged you once. I didn't expect your mama would chase me away. The imperial aunt is sad. Oh, my heart hurts so much!" Wen Yao squatted down and put her head on Hongqing's shoulder, but she didn't really lean on him. After all, he was just a little boy of four years old and couldn't bear Wen Yao's weight.

The Third Lady's eyes flickered for a moment, her expression remained unchanged, but she glanced at Rong Fei from the corner of her eyes, then smiled and said, "Hong Qing, hurry up and comfort your childish Ninth Emperor Aunt, otherwise she will cry."

"That's right. You, the Ninth Emperor's aunt, will cry soon." Rong Fei smiled slowly, and then said, "Shu Yin brings Hong Qing to pay respects every day. I can't get enough of Hong Qing. You come and snatch Hong Qing away from me every time. I must be jealous!"

"Hongqing, your grandma bullied me~" Wen Yao complained to Hongqing in an aggrieved manner.

Hong Qing looked at Wen Yao, then raised his little head to look at his own mama, and finally looked at his own mother for help, and saw that his own mother turned her head away, "..."

Hong Qing felt that he wanted to cry. It was too difficult for such a little kid like him. His little nose twitched, "Aunt Jiuhuang, then you can bully her back," and then he opened his two chubby hands to block Rong Fei.

Rong Fei was stunned for a moment and then laughed out loud, and directly picked up Hong Qing, "Oh, my good grandson~"

Then Wen Yao saw Concubine Rong holding Hong Qing and turning around before heading to the main hall at the back, "Mother Concubine Rong, you have no moral principles!"

"Run!" Rong Fei held Hong Qing in her arms and walked in pelvic-soled shoes like the wind. The servants had to jog to keep up with her.

Wen Yao couldn't help but admire it, this was the walking posture of a high-ranking concubine. Look at her, her elegance was engraved in her bones!

Wen Yao ran over and saw Rong Fei had already put Hong Qing down from her arms. Hong Qing was laughing so hard that her eyes were invisible. Wen Yao played for a while before leaving.

Walking out of Zhongcui Palace is the Imperial Garden. Wen Yao ran into Concubine Yi in the Imperial Garden and said, "Mother, let's go to your palace for some snacks later. I'm hungry!"

"You've paid your respects to so many mothers, but no one gave you anything to eat?" Concubine Yi knew without guessing that her ninth daughter-in-law must have been wandering around, so she said jokingly.

"I'm saving my stomach for mother's snacks," Wen Yao approached Concubine Yi, pushed away Qiu Ling who was beside her, and directly hugged Concubine Yi's arm. Although this was against the rules, Concubine Yi was already used to it.

"Mother," Wen Yao lowered her voice, "I have come this far and I feel that you are so good, mother. Incomparably good!"

“…I have to walk all the way to feel this?” Concubine Yi began her daily quarrel.

"Mother, you actually suspected that I didn't treat you like my own mother, didn't I? I'm so heartbroken!" Wen Yao looked at Concubine Yi angrily, "This hurts my heart so much!"

"Oh, that's good. You've made progress this time. Xiaojiu taught you well. You don't hurt my eyes anymore," Concubine Yi stared at Wen Yao for a long while. At least she didn't dig her toes into the ground because of what she saw.

"Can't it be a very good evaluation?" Wen Yao felt that her acting skills had improved a lot, how could she evaluate it with eyes that hurt without watching!

"..." Concubine Yi took a deep look at Wen Yao, then laughed like a bell, "When you are angry, you often sneak glances at me. Shouldn't you stare at me? Why are you dodging?"

"..." Wen Yao decided to change the subject, "Mother, aren't you curious about why I sighed just now?"

"You're being a little stiff in changing the subject."

"Mother, you are becoming less and less lovable now. Where is the love between us?"

"Eated by a dog!"

"..."

"Oh~ I was wrong, you ate me!"

"It must be my mother who was taught by my father, right?"

……

This time Kangxi really didn't want to eavesdrop. He just really wanted to stroll around the Imperial Garden by himself, and he didn't let the servants break the whips. Unexpectedly, he heard this Little Ninth Lady complaining about him again!

This time Kangxi knew he wasn't eavesdropping, so he decided to come out and said, "Xiao Jiu Fu Jin, why did I hear you talking about me again?"

Kangxi walked out from the west side of Qianqiu Pavilion, while Concubine Yi and Wen Yao were on the south side of Qianqiu Pavilion. The two really did not see Kangxi, not even Concubine Yi this time, but they did not say anything inappropriate!

So it doesn’t matter whether Kangxi is there or not.

[Why are you eavesdropping again! As expected, he is the King of Eavesdropping, Emperor Kangxi!] Wen Yao also knelt down to pay her respects, but she couldn't help complaining in her heart.

Kangxi's eyelids twitched. He was really wronged this time. He couldn't even visit the Imperial Garden? This was still his place!

No, there’s also a first come, first served basis!

This Lady Xiaojiu is a bit unreasonable!

So Kangxi planned to speak frankly, "Is Concubine Xiaojiu mumbling about me again? Don't say anything. I can guess from your expression that I came to the Imperial Garden first."

Wen Yao pursed her lips, [Isn't this person a bit too unreasonable? He didn't even let me speak! First come to the Imperial Garden and then hide secretly, hey... You are worthy of being the insidious Emperor Kangxi! ]

Kangxi's eyelids twitched again. His mouth was sealed by him, but his brain was not. He was just eavesdropping just now, but now he was being sinister!

Concubine Yi was pulled over by Kangxi. She looked at Kangxi and said with a smile, "Your Majesty is still arguing with Wen Yao. She can't win the argument with me. She must find a reason."

"Oh, I understand. You're just trying to save face, but you're suffering." Kangxi glanced at Wen Yao over there, "Why don't you say anything?"

[Listen to what you said, are you talking like a human being? You are the emperor, how can I speak if you don't allow me to? This is too bad, don't think I'm afraid and don't know that you are definitely taking revenge! ]

[It seems that Kowloon's stinginess is inherited from you! Absolutely! ]

Wen Yao looked at Concubine Yi with grievance, "Mother, please save Wen Yao. Wen Yao is being harmed by some people, which is more painful than eating coptis root~"
