Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty

During the dinner, Kangxi and the Empress Dowager each had a table.The Kangxi table is the "Golden Dragon Banquet Table", surrounded by a gold embroidered table.Needless to say, the sumptuousness of the dinner included pork, fat duck, vegetable duck, fat chicken, vegetable chicken, fish and other common dishes as well as delicacies from mountains and seas.

Because of the need to watch the night until the ugliness, the dew will be deeper, so after sitting for half an hour, Kangxi first ordered Li Dequan to send the queen mother back to Shoukang Palace.Of course, when the queen mother was leaving, Chen Bochu also quietly asked Chen Bochu to follow the banquet out of the banquet and followed the queen mother to Shoukang Palace.

Chen Xiuming went back to Shoukang Palace early, Liu Nanny, who had been waiting in the palace for a long time, quickly took off Chen Xiuming's cloak, waited for Chen Xiuming to soak in hot water, and put it on Chen Xiuming, which was given by Kangxi before. A skirt made of su satin.

The red clothes set off Chen Xiuming's reddish face just after taking a bath.

After serving Chen Xiuming with the cold tea, it was time for dinner. Fortunately, the Empress Dowager’s Shoukang Palace had its own small kitchen. Now I can't even have a sip of hot soup, let alone dinner.

After dinner, Chen Xiuming went directly to the Queen Mother's main hall to wait for the Queen Mother and Chen Bochu.

It didn't take long for Chen Xiuming to wait for the two who entered the palace gate amidst the wind and snow. "I have seen the empress dowager, the empress dowager is blessed and safe."

"Get up, have a good chat with your brother, the Ai family will drive away the cold first." The Queen Mother's words are also half-truths, although it is cold outside, no one dares to cold the Queen Mother, even if there is a little cold , also disappeared after entering the palace gate, these remarks were just to keep Chen Xiuming brothers and sisters to talk about their own opinions.

"Respectfully send the empress dowager."

The two brothers and sisters who sent the queen mother away were also speechless, and in the end it was Chen Xiuming who spoke first, "Brother looks very tired, how are you doing these days? Parents..."

"Okay, although I look a little tired, it's just that I'm busy with things these few days near the end of the year. Don't worry about your parents, they are fine. Two days ago, my father wrote a letter saying that I got married in the lake. After Ice, a group of Bingxi people came, my mother was very happy to see...

I see that you are no worse in this palace than at home, so I can reply to my parents. "Chen Bochu answered Chen Xiuming's question with a smile, and did not mention the worries expressed by Chen Qishan and Mrs. Chen in the letter.

"That's good. I'm in the Empress Dowager's palace, and the food and clothing are all paid by the Empress Dowager. If you say something out of line, your empress treats me like a parent and child. The emperor is also very close and easy-going, and he is also very friendly in Shoukang Palace." It's very comfortable to be disturbed by people." Chen Xiuming knew the worries of her parents and brother, but she didn't know how to ask them, so she said them all.

"Okay..." Chen Bochu didn't understand what Chen Xiuming said. No matter what the reason was for Chen Xiuming to enter the palace, now she is all because of her admiration for Kangxi, and she is willing to do so.

Chen Xiuming and Chen Bochu chatted for a long time after finishing their business. Chen Xiuming heard Chen Zhongchu talk about how Chen Bochu's son, Chen Fangpan, was mischievous and made his wife jump in anger, and when Chen Bochu wanted to beat him. Acting like a baby and begging for mercy in front of his mother is really like Chen Zhongshuang and Uncle Chen Fu when they were young.

Chen Zhongshuang and Chen Fushu are ten years older than Chen Xiuming. They were twins born when Mrs. Chen was 33 years old. They were also very naughty when they were children.Chen Xiuming also remembered that when he was two or three years old, he always saw his old father chasing the two of them with a cane. The two brothers were also smart. Whenever Chen Qishan was really angry, he would hide behind Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen. Chen Xiuming is behind, so they can always escape the beating.

Later, when Chen Qishan saw that the two were really unable to discipline them, he sent them to the army, but he didn't want them to make a name for themselves in the army.It was also due to various reasons that every time someone mentioned the two brothers in front of Chen Qishan, Chen Qishan would just shake his head.

The two chatted for a short time. After all, Chen Bochu came out out of inner urgency, and if he came out for a long time, it would arouse suspicion.After Chen Bochu gave Chen Xiuming a piece of red paper in his arms, he went to ask the Queen Mother to bid farewell. After leaving, Chen Xiuming remembered the gift he wanted to send to the Queen Mother.

"Thank you, Empress Dowager." Chen Xiuming saluted the Queen Mother who was lying on the soft couch.

"You kid, why are you still thanking Ai's family, and why don't you come and sit down." The Queen Mother frowned.

"Empress Dowager, my servant will not sit down. Look at this gift I promised you a few days ago. My servant has not forgotten it." Chen Xiuming took out a scroll that was only the size of a folding fan from his sleeve.

Although the Queen Mother didn't get up, she focused all her attention on the scroll.I saw Chen Xiuming slowly unrolling the scroll. When I unrolled it a little, I felt that there was a little light on the fabric, which attracted people to explore the rest of it. After unrolling all the scrolls, I found that it was a grassland and a mountain peak. above the temple.The temple is surrounded by golden light and colorful clouds, and even the grassland on the ground is illuminated by golden light. There is a golden line of different thickness connecting the grassland and the sky.

The queen mother looked at the small embroidery and stretched out her hand. Chen Xiuming stepped forward and placed the scroll in front of the queen mother who had already sat upright.The Empress Dowager took off the armor and touched the embroidery, and found that what her fingers touched was a piece of fine bumps and ups and downs, as if there was really a piece of grass under her hand.I took the embroidery and looked at it carefully, and found that the golden light also had a hidden meaning.Because the golden light is composed of thin threads in different directions, no matter which direction you look at, you will feel that there is light shining from the embroidery scroll, and...

"Mother Su, the Ai family asked you to take care of Xiu Ming, how can you allow her to be so nonsense! It hurts the eyes and mind to embroider Buddhist scriptures on this embroidery scroll." The queen mother saw it. The most secretive mystery on this embroidered scroll is also the reason why he was furious because he saw through it.

"Empress Dowager, this is really not Nanny Su's fault, this Buddhist scripture was embroidered on by my daughter's whim." Chen Xiuming would never have thought that this action would hurt Nanny Su.

"The Ai family is not angry with Mother Su, it's just that you will hurt your eyes. If you are young now, you will suffer if you grow older." The Queen Mother got off the soft couch and pulled up Chen Xiuming who was kneeling. "Aijia will fine Madam Su with one month's salary, and if she doesn't get away with it in the future and let you ruin your body, Aijia will let her suffer a few punishments."

The Empress Dowager was just joking when she asked Chen Xiuming to ask for a gift, but Chen Xiuming was so serious, not to mention the most eye-catching and exhausting embroidery, but she still put all her effort into it.The queen mother was really about to be laughed at by Chen Xiuming's sincerity and honesty.

"Thank you, Empress Dowager. This servant will serve the girl wholeheartedly in the future." Mammy Su knew that the Empress Dowager was warning herself, if she didn't worry about it in the future, it would be more than a few things.

"The Ai family loves you so much. You have just recovered, so how dare you do such a laborious job..." The Queen Mother stroked Chen Xiuming's hair, and pulled Chen Xiuming to sit down. "However, your girl's hands are really ingenious. Yiai's family thinks that this embroidery does not need to be inferior to anyone in the palace." The queen mother was afraid that what she said just now would scare Chen Xiuming, so she moved it with the help of embroidery. Topic, but what the Queen Mother said in the palace did not include those embroidered ladies, otherwise wouldn't Chen Xiuming's identity be lowered by comparing Chen Xiuming's identity with embroidered ladies?

"The empress dowager praised it absurdly. How can my ministers compare with the empresses in the palace. It is good that this gift of my ministers suits the empress dowager's wishes. Before I send it out, I am afraid that the queen mother will not like it." Chen Xiuming saw that the empress dowager really liked it. I am also happy, after all, this is the last thing I gave away this year, and being able to be liked by others can be regarded as a consummation this year.

"I like it, how can such an exquisite object not suit my heart." The queen mother smiled and handed the embroidery to Fang Ruo who was standing beside her, "Keep it carefully, and tomorrow Ai's family will find a good place to hang it up. Fanghua, go and get the things."

The queen mother asked Fanghua to fetch things, and Chen Xiuming was also very curious about the queen mother's order.When Fanghua came to the Queen Mother with a tray, she couldn't help but asked the Queen Mother, "Ms. Empress Dowager, what did you ask Aunt Fanghua to pick up, so Aunt Fanghua was so careful."

The Queen Mother lifted the red cloth covering the tray, "This is the New Year's money given to you by the Ai family. When you were at home, your parents gave it to you. When you are in the palace, the Ai family, your elders, should give you something at the end of the new year." Have fun."

After the Queen Mother opened it, she revealed the mysterious thing that was covered. Inside was a set of delicate mutton jade head and a light green flag dress with a white fur collar.

Chen Xiuming was stunned for a moment and then figured it out. The queen mother and Kangxi planned to push her to others.After all, many people saw her today, so they simply sent her to others in a fair manner, so that the people in the front palace and harem would know her existence, but they would not dare to touch her easily. After all, neither the Queen Mother nor Kangxi After clarifying her identity, no one knows whether she will stay in the palace in the end or marry into the royal family or an important minister because of the Queen Mother's favor.

"Tomorrow, I have breakfast to greet Ai's family. It's good to wear more festive jewelry." The Queen Mother meant that Chen Xiuming came in a flag dress, and the jewelry she wore was not limited to the suet given today. Jade.Before, because Chen Xiuming would definitely participate in the draft, and because she was weak, she had been taught by Madam Liu who came out of the palace early on to teach Chen Xiuming the etiquette in the palace, so the bottom of the flowerpot can also be worn. It's really fate.

"Yes, empress dowager. It's not too early at this time. Tomorrow, the empress dowager will get up early, and the servants will retire first." Tomorrow, the concubines and wives will come to pay homage to the empress dowager, and the empress dowager will have to get up earlier.

"Go ahead, you'll rest early after you go back, and dress yourself up well tomorrow, and don't just wear a hairpin like you usually do." The Queen Mother reminded Madam Su.

Chen Xiuming just returned to the side hall of Shoukang Palace.
