The princess has the skills to keep her face [clear wear]

In the past, the prince was the absolute center at any time. Kangxi was quite proud of this son, and he never left the prince in three words. As the prince's uncle, Suo'etu would always pay attention to the prince.

Ever since the eighth younger sister came with him, the prince realized that he had fallen out of favor.

Oh, these adults who love the new and hate the old!The prince clicked his tongue.

At this moment, the prince heard Longkodo's coughing sound coming from the side. At this moment, the prince was relieved to find that there was a person next to him who was ignored by everyone like him, and this person was Concubine Tong His own brother, Qionghua's uncle.Logically speaking, Longkodo should be the person closest to Qionghua among all the people present, except Kangxi and the prince.But now he was excluded like an outsider.

Thinking about it this way, the prince felt that he was not so miserable anymore.Sure enough, whether it is tragic or not, it has to be compared with others.

Longkodo didn't know what the prince was thinking at this time. If he knew that the prince was pitying him, he would be dumbfounded.

Ever since Qionghua was born, Longkodo has never found a chance to enter the palace to pay respects to Concubine Tong, and naturally he also failed to meet the eighth princess who was rumored to be beloved. This time it can be said that it was Qionghua and Longkodo. meeting for the first time.When Concubine Tong Huanggui was not out of the cabinet, Longkoduo had always admired this elder sister very much, and Longkoduo naturally had a sense of intimacy in his heart for the child that the elder sister had given birth to with great difficulty.

He originally wanted to have a good look at this little niece, get to know her preferences, and then get along with her well, if he could let the little niece get acquainted with his aura, that would be great.For the rest of the journey, he had to take care of her instead of his sister.

Ke Longkodo never expected that after meeting Qionghua, his uncle hadn't said anything yet, Nalan Mingzhu went up and praised Qionghua directly, and praised Qionghua so much that there was nothing in the world Yes, immediately after, Suo'etu also surrounded him, who would be more boastful in the competition with Nalan Mingzhu.

What exactly are Suo'etu and Nalan Mingzhu trying to do?Longkodo couldn't help but suspect their intentions.

In the officialdom, who can not know who!Nalan Mingzhu and Suo'etu have always been thieves and thieves, and they will never do anything that is not beneficial.They spared no effort to praise Qionghua like this, they must have no good intentions, don't just praise Qionghua!

If it wasn't for Qionghua being held in Kangxi's arms, and Kangxi didn't seem to have any bad feelings towards Nalan Mingzhu and Suo'etu, Longkoduo might not be able to resist taking his niece over to protect her In his arms, he forbids two colleagues who seem to him to be quite abnormal from approaching Qionghua.

Kangxi didn't know that Longkodo had so many thoughts in his mind in a short period of time. When he saw Longkodo, he immediately waved to him and said, "Longkodo, come and see Jiaojiao. Jiaojiao But your niece, is this the first time you've seen her?"

The place is just that big, and a few big men are crowded together to watch a baby, so the space is naturally not enough—at least Longkodo thinks so.

Longkodo compared the size of Suoetu and Nalan Mingzhu and their respective positions, and finally squeezed out Suoetu, who was relatively small in size. Now, he finally occupied an excellent position. The location, you can take a good look at your niece.

Nalan Mingzhu was secretly competing with Suo'etu. When he saw Suo'etu being squeezed away suddenly, he was stunned, and then smiled without giving face: "You are really ignorant, and you have been standing in the way of the eighth princess. Uncle came to him, talking about that, preventing the eighth princess from communicating with Longkodo. Now, you can’t blame Longkodo for pushing you away. Who told you to ask for it! The eighth princess has her relatives Uncle is taking care of you, you don't need to worry about it anymore, you should take care of the prince. Just now, you only cared about the eighth princess and ignored the prince, it really shouldn't be."

As for gaining favorability in front of Kangxi, just leave it to them.

Nalan Mingzhu saw that his old enemy was very angry but had to hold back his anger, and he couldn't help but felt a sense of sadness. At this time, Long Kedo, who had no friendship with their family, in Nalan Mingzhu's eyes, was like Much cuter than ever.

Suo'etu, who was forced to withdraw from the central position, stared at Nalan Mingzhu for a while while blowing his beard. His eyes stayed on Long Kedo who suddenly came out halfway, and finally retracted.

As Kangxi's favorite minister, when did Suo'etu receive such treatment?But this time, even Kangxi would not feel that Longkodo's behavior was excessive.After all, the prince and elder brother had fought openly and secretly many times before for Qionghua's attention.

If Longkodo does this, it can only prove that he is still full of childlike innocence and that he values ​​Qionghua very much.

Although Suoetu really wanted to offend Longkodo, who made him ashamed, there were not many ministers accompanying him this time. With Nalan Mingzhu who had a bad relationship with him, if Suoetu offended Longko again More, and his situation will be very bad.Therefore, after a little hesitation, Suo'etu suppressed his anger and turned his attention to the prince.

No matter how harsh Nalan Mingzhu's words were, she was right in one point.Just now, he did ignore the prince because of the eighth princess, which shouldn't be.It is important to please Kangxi, but the crown prince is the real trump card of the Hesheli family, and the foundation for the continuation of prosperity and wealth in the future.Although the Hesheli family had been using various methods to maintain contact with the prince in the past, it was still very rare to have such an opportunity to communicate with the prince face to face and cultivate a relationship. He should seize the time.

Thinking about it this way, Suo'etu didn't envy Nalan Mingzhu who was not squeezed away just now.

"That's right, I didn't expect you, Mingzhu, to be a dog in the usual days, but it's rare to say something plain. The eighth princess is surrounded by the emperor and Long Keduo who care about her, and His Royal Highness-the prince has me by his side. It seems like this , among the few of us, you are the only one who is idle." Suo'etu pretended to shake his head: "If the big brother is here, you can have something to do. It's a pity...or else, Come and serve His Highness the Crown Prince with me. Although you are always unpleasant, His Highness the Crown Prince will not care about you."

There was a needle in Suo'etu's words, which made Mingzhu furious.I don't know when Nalan Mingzhu and Suo'etu met each other, just like the elder brother and the prince, they would have a quarrel.Seeing Suo'etu who was almost focusing on Nalan Mingzhu, the corner of the prince's mouth twitched.

Didn't the uncle say that he wants to have a good exchange of feelings with him? Why do you feel that he has become an extra person intervening between the uncle and Nalan Mingzhu again?

Longkoduo focused on two things. While communicating with his little niece, he also took some time to pay attention to Suo'etu and Longkoduo.He couldn't help but sneered when he saw the appearance of the two men's sabre-rattling.These two people are still as naive as ever.

He lowered his head and looked at the cute little niece in his arms.Under Kangxi's introduction, I have a deeper understanding of my little niece.

Before seeing Qionghua, Longkodo thought that Nalan Mingzhu and Suo'etu said so many nasty words to praise his little niece to please Kangxi. Who knew, he was watching After arriving at the little niece, he felt that he and this little niece were destined for each other, and he couldn't love her enough. He even felt that Nalan Mingzhu and Suo'etu couldn't praise her enough.It was fine if Longkodo didn't speak, but once he spoke, the words of praise flowed out of his mouth naturally, which was several times more exaggerated than the posture of Nalan Mingzhu and Suo'etu just now.

Qionghua: "..."

Hurry up and stop boasting, any more boasting will make her feel inflated.

Qionghua finally understood why it was difficult to impress Kangxi with ordinary flattery. There was such a group of high-level flatterers around him every day, and they flattered without any trace. Even if he knew they were flattering, he felt very comfortable in his heart. Not on the poor little flattery of some concubines.

Because of the blood relationship with Qionghua, Longkodo received a benefit that neither Nalan Mingzhu nor the elder brother had received: hugging the little princess Qionghua.

Although the whole process was very short, before Longkodo had time to communicate with Qionghua, Qionghua was carried back by Kangxi, but Longkodo still remembered the small and soft feeling of his niece.When he held her in his arms, he felt a gentle warm current flowing in his body, which was very comfortable.

He thought, no wonder the bigwigs in the palace like to hug Qionghua so much.His little niece might really be a person favored by heaven.

……

This time Kangxi went out to worship the mausoleum, and did not deliberately hide his whereabouts.

After hearing the news, many people rushed to the side of the road to watch the excitement.

For them, it was a rare thing for them to be lucky enough to see the emperor travel. It would be even better if they could get some dragon energy to protect their family members.Besides, I heard that among the people traveling today, there is also the Eighth Princess.That is a person born with blessings, and I don't know what the eighth princess looks like, and whether she is different from others.

For the safety of Kangxi and others, the common people were separated, and they could not see the appearance of Kangxi and Qionghua clearly, only a vague outline, which also made Kangxi and Qionghua They became more and more mysterious in their minds.

"I saw the emperor just now. The emperor is so powerful that he is worthy of being the Ninth Five-Year Lord." Some people only saw the bright yellow robes on Kangxi's body, but they were so excited that they said as if they saw Kangxi himself: " I don't know if the little princess was born to look like him."

"You really saw the emperor? What does the emperor look like, tell us quickly." The people around came over with interest.

"The emperor..." The man thought for a while, and said, "He was born with a majesty, which can be compared with ordinary people. I just wanted to see the face of the emperor, but I felt a sharp pain in my eyes, and I dare not look at it again. The emperor is Son of Heaven, Ding Ran in Heaven does not allow ordinary people like us to peek at Longyan at will."

He was clearly talking nonsense, so far away, what could he see clearly?But he talked nonsense, but he talked with a nose and eyes, which really made some people believe what he said.

"That's right. If ordinary people like us can see the face of the Son of Heaven clearly, the Son of Heaven will not be so mysterious. Anyway, seeing the scene of the Son of Heaven traveling with our own eyes is enough for me to brag about for three full years." Someone cheerfully said: "We can't see the face of the emperor, and we can't see the face of the little princess. However, the little princess's forehead is the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine is a fairy empress with a bodhisattva heart. There is such a forehead Mother, the little princess must be born well."

"Yes, my natal house was crushed by the snowstorm earlier, and all the rations left at home were buried in the snow, and I couldn't eat any more. Fortunately, there was a fairy lady who saved her own time and sent someone to Beijing My natal family survived the most difficult days by giving porridge to places that were severely affected by the disaster. Later, the emperor followed the advice of the fairy lady and let those homeless people live temporarily in Huangzhuang. We need to use work as relief, but it finally gave us a chance to survive. When the weather gets warmer, everything will be fine. Now, my natal family and my husband’s family are all set up by the emperor and the fairy maiden. I got the Longevity card."

When Kangxi's guard of honor passed by, Qionghua could clearly perceive the support and love for Kangxi from the surrounding people.

With her keen sense of hearing, she even heard the voices of "Emperor", "Fairy Empress" and "Princess Fuxing" from the crowd.It seems that her family, Khan Ama, is really supported by the people.No, not only that, her mother-in-law's reputation among the people seems to be quite good, and even her daughter also benefits.

Qionghua only needed to think about it for a while, and she knew that this was caused by the actions of Kangxi and Concubine Tong when some people's houses in the eastern district of the capital were destroyed by snow not long ago.

The minds of the people are actually very simple. Whoever can give them a bite to eat, who can keep them alive, who can give them a hand when they are in despair, they will respect and love that person.

When she was in the harem, Qionghua didn't have much feeling when she watched Concubine Tong busy for disaster relief outside the palace.

Only now, standing in front of these relief people and looking at the admiration and admiration in their eyes, can we clearly perceive what is the heart of the people.

After Kangxi saw this scene, he was also quite emotional, and he held Qionghua in his arms tighter: "In the harem, only your mother-in-law has such foresight and can solve my problems for me. agree with me."

Some things seem meaningless, and only when you actually do them, you will find out how useful that thing is.

For example, after Concubine Tong Huanggui took the lead in cutting down the expenses in the palace, she used the saved money to give porridge.These coins are like a drop in the bucket, and they can't help the people who have suffered disasters to tide over the difficulties, but they can help them when they are fighting against death and give them more strength to survive.

At the same time, this is also a statement from the harem.Not only Kangxi was concerned about the people affected by the disaster, but the women in the harem were also concerned about the disaster in Beijing.In this way, the people in Beijing will naturally have a greater sense of belonging to the Qing Dynasty, and therefore, they will be more loyal to the Qing Dynasty.

Water can carry a boat or overturn it. Kangxi never forgot the words of the ancients.

As Kangxi's confidant, Nalan Mingzhu naturally read his thoughts from Kangxi's words, and couldn't help sighing secretly in her heart.Concubine Tonghuang has such exquisite thoughts, it is no wonder that she was able to become the imperial concubine after the death of the queen, and command the six palaces.In contrast, his younger sister, Concubine Hui, put more thought into the minutiae.For example, how to compete with others for favor, how to make opponents unlucky, in this way, it is naturally impossible for Concubine Hui to become a concubine that Kangxi relies heavily on.

In the past, Concubine Hui also had the opportunity to command the Six Palaces.As one of the early concubines around Kangxi, she also gave birth to a big brother for Kangxi. In the previous dynasty, Mingzhu, the elder brother who was the emperor's favorite minister, supported her. As long as she can have half the vision and means of Tonghuang Guifei, It wouldn't be reduced to the point where it is now, where it doesn't even touch the edge of palace affairs.

Sometimes, people can't even admit defeat.

Nalan Mingzhu glanced at Long Keduo secretly, he really has a good sister.

Longkodo noticed Nalan Mingzhu's gaze, and proudly puffed out his chest.Yes, his sister is so good, and in the future, his little niece will definitely be better than blue.

As for Suo'etu, he had no idea what Kangxi said.Empress Renxiao has passed away for many years. If Empress Renxiao is still alive, she will definitely choose to do the same thing as Concubine Tong Huanggui. She has always been considerate and knows how to share Kangxi's worries. Otherwise, Kangxi would not have died so many years after her death Still miss her.After the death of Empress Renxiao, although the Hesheli family sent a concubine daughter to the palace to maintain the connection between the family and the royal family, but the concubine daughter's status was not high, and her presence in the sky was always very low. It's not her turn to come forward.

Kangxi didn't care about the eyes of several ministers under him, he planned to take this opportunity to teach the prince a lesson.

"What is popular support? Now, do you understand?" Kangxi asked.

The crown prince nodded: "A king must consider the people, think for the people, and only then can he gain the trust and love of the people."

After Kangxi listened to the words quietly, he didn't say right or wrong, he just asked: "What else?"

The prince recalled what Kangxi often taught him when he was with him on weekdays, and said: "The hearts of the people are available. When a ruler has prestige in the hearts of the people, the government orders he implements will be easily accepted by the people." .”

"This is only one aspect. There are more things that you need to comprehend by yourself in the future. Baocheng, you are the crown prince of my Qing Dynasty. You have to observe and ponder many things by yourself. Anything that is beneficial to my Qing Dynasty , you should do it."

"My son understands."

Listening to Kangxi's patient teaching to the prince, Nalan Mingzhu couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken.

Only the prince can receive such treatment and receive one-on-one personal counseling from Kangxi.His nephew is no worse than anyone else, but he is still far from being a prince.

Qionghua hehehe, where is the one-on-one tutoring?Is she still in Kangxi's arms?I don't know if it was an illusion, but after Kangxi said these words, he took a special look at her.

……

It was night, Kangxi and others stayed in an inn in the suburbs of Beijing.This inn is the property of the royal family, and it only receives dignitaries on weekdays.When the emperor came today, the inn naturally no longer received other people, but cleared the place, deliberately reserved for Kangxi and his party.In this way, it is also avoided that good and bad people are mixed in the inn, and some people don't have long eyes and run into Kangxi and the noble masters.

Kangxi was worried about his little girl, so he arranged for her to live with him.Only by placing it under the nose can people feel at ease.

As for the prince, he is such an old man, how can he not take care of himself well?Besides, Suo'etu is still there. Suo'etu has always cared about the prince, so it is absolutely right to let Suo'etu look at the prince.

Compared with the soft little girl, Kangxi's attitude towards his son is much more casual.

No matter how much you dote on your sons, in Kangxi's heart, sons still need to go through hardships and become the pillars of the country.It's different for a daughter, it's better to pamper her, especially his Jiaojiao.

"Last time, Ama taught you halfway through literacy, and you were taken back to Changchun Palace by your mother. Let's continue tonight."

As Kangxi said, he took out a stack of memorials from the table.He has carefully selected these memorials, and it is absolutely impossible for the embarrassing situation like last time to happen again.

Qionghua stared at the stack of memorials dumbfounded.

Wait, isn't it, is this what she wants to learn?Help!

When Kangxi and Qionghua had a "warm" interaction, Suo'etu was also asking the prince about his recent situation in the palace.

After Suo'etu learned that Kangxi intended to let the prince get close to the fourth elder brother and the eighth princess, he couldn't help showing a satisfied smile: "It seems that the emperor values ​​His Royal Highness the prince very much. The fourth elder brother is now the son of Emperor Tong, and the eighth princess It is such a fate. The emperor let His Highness the Crown Prince contact them, which is paving the way for His Highness's future. With the fourth elder brother as your right-hand man, and the eighth princess's fate to protect you, His Highness will be able to walk in the future Smoother."

The prince saw that Suo'etu's statement was consistent with his own analysis, so he couldn't help but nodded, with a soft look in his eyes: "Well, the fourth brother is very good, and the eighth sister is also very good. The imperial concubine stays alone, and it is even more difficult But kind. Now, there is an imperial concubine in the palace, and concubine Hui can't make any troubles. The eldest brother has started to behave with his tail between his legs. In the future, the lonely will become more and more dominant. Uncle, tell me, if you go to beg How about Khan Ama making the imperial concubine the empress? If the imperial concubine becomes the empress and takes charge of the affairs of the harem, it will be more justified. Now, Changchun Palace is also the power of Gu. When Changchun Palace is well, Gu will naturally become better .”

Suo'etu heard the first half of the prince's words, but did not react. When he heard the last few words of the prince, his face sank: "Prince, this is not allowed. Although the imperial concubine Tong is now because of the emperor's intention And being close to you and assisting you, but in the future, will there be any unreasonable thoughts? Who knows? The emperor trusts the Tong family very much. The Tong family is no worse than our Hesheli family. In addition, Concubine Tonghuang now has sons and daughters, if you rely too much on the Tong family, it will be very disadvantageous to you."

"Don't forget, you can sit on the crown prince because you are the only surviving son of the emperor." Suo'etu said: "If the imperial concubine becomes the queen, the fourth elder brother, as her son, will succeed you His second son."

The prince looked at Suo'etu in surprise, his immature face was full of confusion and incomprehension.

Obviously, at this time, he was still a relatively solid-minded child. Kangxi asked him to get close to the fourth elder brother, and he just got close to the fourth elder brother, without thinking about other miscellaneous things at all.

However, he didn't think about it, which didn't mean that Suo'etu couldn't think about it either.

As someone who is on the prince's side, Suo'etu is naturally happy that his side has grown stronger.But in the same way, such a powerful ally also made Suo'etu quite afraid.

In particular, the reason why the Tong family and the Hesheli family got closer was not because of the exchange of interests, not because of any consensus reached, but only because of Kangxi's wishes.

This relationship, in Suo'etu's view, is very fragile.If one day, the Tong family felt that instead of following the crown prince to gain the merits of a dragon, it would be better to put their nominal grandson, the fourth elder brother, on the throne, what should they do?

Suo'etu couldn't fully trust the Tong family.If the Tong family is the kind of family that needs to rely on the Hesheli family to survive, then Suo'etu may be less afraid of the Tong family and more trusting.But the Tong family doesn't exist like this.

Suo'etu thought for a while, and said to the prince: "Your Highness, it is a good thing that you are getting close to the fourth elder brother and the eighth princess. In this way, we can also borrow part of the power of the Tong family. But, you You need to know that only the Hesheli family will truly consider you wholeheartedly. As for the Tong family, the imperial concubine, the fourth elder brother and the eighth princess, you should pay attention to them, but you should not trust them too much. In other words, you have to rely heavily on Eternal Spring Palace, but not without reservation."
