happy rebirth

Chapter 17

Ke Qi doesn't know much about the royal family.But many things are no secret to Xie Jinhua.

The queen's surname is Zhao.Empress Zhao had a difficult time with her children. After she married into the Li family, she was not pregnant for three years. Although she gave birth to the eldest daughter, she was not pregnant for many years, so she let go of the concubines. In this way, there are two concubine sons, Li Da and Li Er.

That was the way it was, even if she failed to give birth to a son-in-law, Li Zhao's status as mistress would not be shaken.As a result, she happened to be pregnant again at an advanced age, and after several hardships, she finally gave birth to her first son Li San.When Emperor Kairui came to the throne, he did not hesitate to make his son the crown prince.

Having a legitimate son would of course restrict the birth of a concubine, so there were only three older princes, Li Da, Li Er, and Li San.It wasn't until the emperor took over the harem after he ascended the throne that the number of beauties in the harem suddenly increased, and the empress Zhao also loosened the restrictions, and then more little princes were born one after another.

The fourth prince is only 12 years old now, and he was born after the emperor ascended the throne.The remaining princes were even younger.

Xie Jinhua only talked about these royal affairs in a few words, and briefly explained them to Ke Qi.But Ke Qi is a person who has read history, and history is always surprisingly similar.The current emperor is almost 60 years old, and the prince is already in his 30s. It is really hard to say how the situation in the court will change in the future.At this time, the average life expectancy is not high. If the emperor can die within three to five years, then the prince should be able to ascend the throne smoothly.As for the prince and the eldest princess, Xie Da is the consort of the princess, and the entire Xie mansion is the prince's natural ally, so it is naturally safe.

But what if the emperor's age is still long?

In a few years, the little princes below will all grow up.Is the prince going to wear the title of prince until he grows old?Can the First Prince and Second Prince have no ambitions?When that time comes, what should the Xie family, which is still closely connected with the royal family, do?It seems that the Xie family can only board the prince's boat and the Dejun king's boat, but if the prince and the Dejun king fight, what good results can the Xie family have with two boats?

Ke Qi never worried about himself.Because when the situation in central Beijing really becomes chaotic, it will be four or five years later.According to Ke Qi's plan, he must have reconciled with Xie Jinhua at that time.As long as he leaves the Xie Mansion, of course he has a way to protect himself.

Ke Qi was worried about Xie Jinhua.Since the surname is "Xie", Xie Jinhua will always advance and retreat with the Qingyang Hou Mansion.

However, Ke Qi will not express his concerns directly.If he talked about the situation in the DPRK now, it would really shock the world.Ke Qi only encouraged Xie Jinhua to buy more private property.As long as you work hard to develop yourself, you will have more choices in the future.

Xie Jinhua was a little distressed.He has never done anything to set up a Zhuangzi or a shop.

"You can leave things to the people below." Ke Qi calmly pointed at the second-year boy in his eyes, "If you don't have anyone on hand, then you can ask the mansion to borrow the second or third manager, or go outside It’s okay to search, as long as you can know people and get their loyalty, you can leave these things to them. Of course, you also need to form a loyal team. It’s very good for me to see Li Yang, you let Li Yang first Practice it."

In Xie Jinhua's position, he doesn't need to know everything, as long as he knows people and uses them well.

Xie Jinhua looked at Ke Qi thoughtfully.

Ke Qi didn't say much.Although he and Xie Jinhua got along well, deep down in his heart, he still didn't regard himself and Xie Jinhua as a real family.Therefore, in front of Xie Jinhua, Ke Qi is always restrained.He's used to it when he speaks.

It will be late.

Xie Jinhua left Ke Qi to sit in the room and read the gift list, while he ran to take a bath.When Xie Jinhua came back covered in moisture, Ke Qi had already folded the gift list and put it aside.Xie Jinhua walked up to Ke Qi and sat down, while Li Yang stood aside and helped him brush his hair.This is a manual dryer.

Ke Qi only felt that Xie Jinhua's life was very corrupt.

"Is there anything you particularly like?" Xie Jinhua asked.

Although Ke Qi read the gift list in its entirety, he really didn't choose a few items.He knew that Xie Jinhua liked ancient books and classics very much, so naturally he wouldn't take advantage of others.As for coral potted plants, gemstone flower trees, etc., although Xie Jinhua didn't like it that much, but the value of those things was too high, and Ke Qi felt it was too hot to handle.Even if it is a wood carving, the agarwood wood carvings are worth more than gold!Can't everyone give some civilian gifts?

But Ke Qi knew that Xie Jinhua had good intentions, if he didn't want anything, I'm afraid the second-year boy would be unhappy.So, Ke Qi looked at Xie Jinhua sincerely, and said, "I...I just think that everything here suits you very well, but I can't choose anything for myself."

Xie Jinhua had just taken a hot bath, and the heat on his face hadn't dissipated. Hearing what Ke Qi said, he only felt that his face was getting hotter.

"He... how could he speak so bluntly!" Xie Jinhua said to himself.

"Master Ke really has deep affection for my young master. This is indeed a fate arranged by God." Li Yang thought so.

Ke Qi saw that Xie Jinhua who had just come out of the bath was only wearing unlined clothing, and said, "It's not completely warmed up yet, so don't be greedy for the cold. I'll get you a coat to wear." Probably Xie Jinhua's body was a little weak inside, he If the yang energy is not strong, the extremities tend to get cold, and I like to use slightly higher temperature water when taking a bath, so after taking a bath, I always have the heat all over my body, so I can't wear any clothes for a while.However, Xie Jinhua was always particularly prone to catching cold.

"I wanted him to choose what he likes, but now it seems that I need to help him choose. It's really worrying." Xie Jinhua said to himself, "These gold and jade things are too vulgar, but he doesn't have them at hand. Affordable... that's all, I'll keep a few, and give the rest to him."

Ke Qi put a piece of clothing on Xie Jinhua, and went to take a bath.

Ke Qi doesn't often take a bath, he likes to take a shower.Therefore, he always washes very quickly.Because he needs to be naked when taking a bath, he doesn't like to be served by his side, and he always solves it quickly by himself.Ke Qi wiped his hair until it stopped dripping, and then stepped on his wooden clogs and returned to the bedroom.

As soon as Ke Qi opened the door, he saw an unexpected scene.

Xie Jinhua's hair has been completely dried.He lay on his side on the couch.Li Yang squatted on the ground, as if kissing Xie Jinhua's hand.

Ke Qi quickly closed the door tightly.

This this……

"If the sex is changed, I am the wife of the wife, and Li Yang is the maid of the house, does this count as being caught in the bed?" Ke Qi wiped the sweat that did not exist on the forehead.He imagined Li Yang with a sexual transformation—a girl as burly as a bear—and only felt that Xie Jinhua's aesthetics was very problematic.

Ke Qi continued to stand at the door.He had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

A few servants stood under the eaves not far away.Ke Qi stared at them in a daze for a while.

"What can happen to the two men!" Ke Qi quickly adjusted his mentality, bent his fingers and knocked on the door.

"Come in." Xie Jinhua's voice was a little lazy.

Ke Qi opened the door calmly and walked in calmly.Li Yang was still squatting there, but this time he didn't hold Xie Jinhua's hand, he was holding Xie Jinhua's foot.Ke Qi took a closer look and knew that Li Yang was helping Xie Jinhua trim his toenails.So, the front is trimming fingernails?

Xie Jinhua's feet are very white, the kind of paleness that is not particularly healthy.

It is probably because of a serious illness before, or maybe it is because young people at this age are a bit indisputable. Ke Qi only thinks that Xie Jinhua's ankles are too slender, not like the ankles of old men.The movements of Li Yang's hands were very light, and the toenails were neatly trimmed.

"I saw you opened the door, but didn't come in... What's wrong?" Xie Jinhua asked.

Ke Qi can't say that just now he took a glimpse and mistakenly thought that Xie Jinhua and Li Yang were hiding in the room to stir up trouble, could he?As a straight man, his integrity almost collapsed.So Ke Qi pulled his collar and waved it twice, and said, "I still felt a little hot after taking a shower, so I stood at the door to let off the heat for a while."

It wasn't the first time Xie Jinhua asked Li Yang to trim his nails, but this was the first time Ke Qi met him.

He was used to being served by others since he was a child, so he didn't think much of it.

Ke Qi was full of emotion in his heart.He needs someone to cut his nails, so he still wants to live in seclusion?Xie Si is so naive!

Xie Jinhua turned his eyes, saw that Ke Qi's nails were a little long, and said, "Your nails should be trimmed too, let's cut them together."

Before time travel, Ke Qi knew that in ancient times, the birth of a body originated from his parents, so he always thought that in ancient times, a series of practices such as "shaving hair, cutting nails, and beard" to cut off a certain part of his body were unreasonable. It is unfilial.But after he really crossed, he realized that at this time there is still a saying that "the armor is the muscle, if the armor is not enough, the muscle will not be replaced".That is to say, people at this time think that nails are stagnant things, and not cutting them frequently will inhibit the emission of turbid air.Of course, nails can't be cut casually, you need to pick an auspicious day.Today happens to be an auspicious day.

Ke Qi looked down at his hands and said, "It's time to cut it. Give me the scissors, and I'll cut it myself."

"You cut it yourself?" Xie Jinhua was very surprised, as if Ke Qi had said something extraordinary.

"Yeah!" Ke Qi said in a daze, "I always cut it myself. Is there any problem?"

"Can I cut my nails? Can't I cut my hands?" Xie Jinhua asked.Someone can cut their own nails!

Ke Qi felt that there were too many flaws in these words.He felt that it was time to open the eyes of Xie Jinhua, who was used to being served since childhood.So Ke Qi picked up the small scissors and cut the nails of his left hand first.Xie Jinhua was so amazed that he actually let out exclamations such as "wow" and "oh".

After cutting her nails, Ke Qi put her hand in front of Xie Jinhua's eyes.

Xie Jinhua touched Ke Qi's hand, saw that the nails were really neatly manicured, and said, "You are amazing!"

"Uh...not really. It's very simple!" Ke Qi said.

"Don't be humble." Xie Jinhua said.

"It's really, really simple! If you ask Li Yang, he must have cut his nails himself." Ke Qi quickly pointed to Li Yang and said.

Xie Jinhua looked at Li Yang suspiciously.

Li Yang is a loyal servant, and he wished that his master could live a long life through this heaven-sent marriage, so this loyal servant with an upright face told a little lie in good faith, saying: "How can everyone be like this?" Master Ke is so powerful? The servant’s nails have always been trimmed by Li Sang, who lives in the same room.” In Li Yang’s view, as long as the two masters can admire and respect each other, their friendship will grow stronger. The deeper it is.

Xie Jinhua continued to look at Ke Qi with a look of "Don't be humble, you are really too good".

Ke Qi looked down at his nails.

Yes, Xie Fu Pills.

--------

"He can cut his own nails! Cut it himself!"

"The world is full of wonders."

"It must be a technique that can only be mastered through hard work."

"Yes, I really didn't miss him, he is a very persistent person."
