The Palm Jade of the Red Chamber

Kangxi woke up before dawn. He opened his eyes and looked sideways at Daiyu who curled himself up into a ball and slept obediently next to him. Daiyu was very obedient when she slept, and she could maintain a single position for a whole night. Kangxi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, smiled, and stood up cautiously. As soon as he moved, Daiyu woke up. She opened her eyes in confusion, and looked at Kangxi in a daze, obviously she hadn't remembered where she was now.

"It's still early, you can sleep a little longer!" Kangxi touched Daiyu's small face and whispered in her ear.

A faint breath blew past her ears, Daiyu shuddered slightly, fully woke up, sat up and asked: "What time is it now?"

"If you go back to your mother, it's already Yin time." Bai Ling, who heard the movement and entered the house to wait, replied.

"Bailing, go get ready for breakfast." Daiyu got up from the bed, walked to Kangxi's side, took the emperor's court clothes from Liang Jiugong, and said while dressing Kangxi, "It's still early, the emperor first Go back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation sooner."

"I'll use it early, you go back to sleep for a while, and let Bailing wake you up at Chenshi." Kangxi straightened his clothes, raised his hand to touch Daiyu's hair, and said.

Daiyu smiled: "I'm not tired after waking up, I'll have some breakfast with the emperor later, and then go to clean up the study room, the books I brought from home are still locked in the box, I should go after breakfast Greetings to the noble concubine, I will go to the Palace of Compassion later!" She was sitting in front of the vanity mirror, and Shao Yao was standing behind her combing Daiyu's hair, Kangxi thought it was interesting, so she stood aside and watched Daiyu get dressed.

Daiyu combed her simple curly hair, and picked out a green flag dress, which made Daiyu's complexion even more white and flawless.

Changchun Palace has its own small kitchen, and Nanny Gui manages the small kitchen. When the emperor came, she had already cooked soup and stewed millet in the kitchen. No, when Bai Ling came, there happened to be ready-made ones, a plate of golden cakes, a basket of steamed buns, and two bowls of millet porridge. For a simple breakfast, Kangxi and Daiyu felt warm all over their bodies. Daiyu didn't eat much, so she drank a bowl of millet porridge and a piece of golden cake, and Kangxi ate all the rest in a good mood.

Daiyu's hands are small, with slender fingers, soft and boneless. Kangxi has liked to play with Daiyu's hands since last night. During breakfast, Kangxi played with Daiyu's hands while talking to Daiyu.

It seemed that after the two of them went to bed in the same bed last night, the atmosphere returned to what it was before, but the way they got along changed.

Daiyu sent Kangxi to the door, stood outside the palace gate and watched Kangxi go away, waited until Kangxi was out of sight, then went in, returned to the palace, sat on the couch, and said to Bailing: "You guarded the palace last night. It's been a night, go to rest first, let Xueyan come and accompany me."

"Yes, ma'am."

Bai Ling withdrew to ask Xueyan to take over, and Mammy Li was waiting on her side. Seeing Daiyu's dazed expression, she asked, "Your Majesty, if you have any doubts, why don't you tell Mammy?"

Daiyu was stunned for a moment, and beckoned to let Nanny Li sit on her lower head, and Nanny Li sat on the footrest, stretched out her hand to hold Daiyu's slightly cold hand, and said with concern: "Is your lady not wearing enough clothes?" , hands so cold?"

"It's not that I don't know about my physique, it will be fine after a while," Daiyu smiled, and looked down at Li Nanny, with dependence in her eyes, "Yesterday I had some things that I couldn't say to my mom, but now Entering the palace, although the two mothers, Bai Ling and Xueyan, are pretty good, they didn't grow up in the palace after all, and they don't understand some rules. Fortunately, there are two other mothers by my side. I feel a lot more at ease.”

"Your Majesty, don't worry, you grew up under the watchful eye of Numaids and Nanny Gui. To put it bluntly, the servants treat Your Majesty as their own child. The Changchun Palace will be guarded by the servants like an iron wall." Nanny Li immediately expressed her loyalty to Daiyu, and what she said was true. She and Nanny Gui had no children of their own. When Daiyu was seven years old, the two of them came to Daiyu's side, although they had already beaten her at that time. I want to rely on Daiyu's thoughts, but people's hearts are the most emotional. Daiyu has been lovable since she was a child, well-behaved and sensible. The two of them taught Daiyu, and they also really like this child, and naturally hope that she will be well.

"With Mammy here, I can't rest assured." Daiyu smiled, Xueyan also came in at this time, walked to Daiyu's side, and said with a smile, "Girl, why did you wake up so early?"

"Xueyan, I want to call your mother." After hearing this, Nanny Li kept a straight face.

Xueyan stuck out her tongue at Daiyu, and obediently called out: "Yes, it's the empress."

"You can't call girls anymore after entering the palace, Xueyan, you have to be more careful." Li Nanny eased her complexion, and told Xueyan again, "You girl, you have to have a good temper in the palace, don't be careless."

"Yes~ slaves will definitely change, Mammy don't worry." Xueyan raised her hand to assure Li Nanny, Daiyu smiled lightly, pulled Xueyan's hand, and said, "Don't mess with Mammy, wait a minute Just accompany me into the house and move out all the books in the box."

"Your Majesty, you've been thinking about that box of books since you woke up early in the morning!" Xue Yan lamented, "My Majesty, it's only time now!"

"We don't have free time these days. When the study is finished, you and Bailing will follow the mother to learn about the things in the palace. Also, how are the thrush and Lulu who were just arranged?" Daiyu said. asked.

"Sister Bailing arranges Thrush to manage the flowers and plants, sweeping and other matters in the Changchun Palace, while Lulu is responsible for external affairs, and Sister Bailing is in charge of the maiden's personal things." Xueyan reported to the eight in the palace. For the matter of the eunuch and the six maids, two of the six maids were brought up to become Daiyu's big maids, and the remaining four were divided among four people, and each of the seven The little eunuch was arranged by Dongzi himself. Dongzi called Li De's little eunuch to be his assistant. The other arrangements were scattered, but they all performed their duties.

Daiyu nodded, expressing that she was very satisfied with this arrangement. She was not used to having too many waiters around her, and there was nothing that needed so many people. Nanny Gui took Xueyan to manage the small kitchen, and Nanny Li He took Bai Ling to manage the bedroom. In the small kitchen, there were Nanny Gui and a little eunuch named Xiaodao. They came from the imperial dining room. The little palace lady Huilan was also brought by Bailing. There were two little palace ladies beside Bailing, one Cymbidium and the other Shaoyao, while the thrush wore Bauhinia, and Lulu was followed by Muxiang.

Huilan's female worker is very good, Shaoyao is good at combing hair, and Bauhinia is very good at making tea, Muxiang is very clever, and knows everything in the palace very well. Lu, on the other hand, is eloquent and greets people with a smile. Each of the court ladies has its own characteristics.

When Daiyu met them, Xiaobai had let Xiaobai cast a spell on them silently. This was to prevent them from thinking of harming her, and they would do whatever harmed her. The meaning of avoidance is the same as when Xiaozhuang or the emperor delivered news.

Daiyu doesn't think that she has entered the palace, and she can avoid everything without fighting for favor. That's the idea that only a fool would have, but fortunately, even if she wants to fight for favor now, it's relatively easy. Xiaobai has said that Kangxi treats her well, no matter what, he must maintain it until she is old enough.

And she also made a plan. After Jiji, having a child at the age of fifteen is too early, and it is not good for her health, but she has a mall, and the medicine in the mall can just make up for all the shortcomings. There was one child left before her interest disappeared, both boys and girls were good, at least she could have one in the palace.

Taking advantage of the early time, Daiyu took Xueyan to tidy up the study room. All the books were taken out of the boxes. Before she entered the palace, her husband also sent her a box of books. , are all books she has never read, and they say they are for her to pass the time. Those books are also passed down from the barbarians, and some are from the other side of the sea. It is very interesting. Daiyu knows that these books are not prepared for her by her husband. After accepting all the books, now holding the book, Daiyu sighed slightly.

"Your Majesty, it's Chen time, do you want some breakfast?" The books in the study are all sorted out, it's Chen time, and in half an hour, Your Majesty should go to greet the noble concubine, and then go to the Palace of Compassion.

"Use it, I have to face everyone today!" On the second day after entering the palace, the emperor's women also had to meet, even if they had met before, but their identities were different now.

Xueyan went down to prepare breakfast for Daiyu. Daiyu usually used very little in the morning. Nanny Gui felt sorry for Daiyu and always used bone broth to make porridge for Daiyu. She boiled a small bowl and Daiyu drank it. After a bowl of porridge, he took Xueyan and others to Niu Gulu's Palace of Yanxi Palace.

Niu Gulushi was waiting for Daiyu early in the morning, while the younger Niu Gulushi looked at his elder sister amusedly, and said, "My elder sister is obviously looking forward to Yu'er's arrival, but she laughs at her every time."

Niu Gulu raised his eyebrows and said: "That's my pleasure, Yu'er is the prettiest when she is angry~"

"Yu'er listened, but I want to make trouble with you again." Xiao Niu Gulu shook her head, she lived with Niu Gulu in the side hall, and met the emperor more often than other concubines There are many concubines, but she is used to being quiet. Every time the emperor comes, she also consciously avoids it. Even though Mrs. Niu Gulu doesn't care, Mrs. Niu Gulu always feels strange and uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Tong, concubine Nala, and concubine Ma Jia are here to pay their respects." Xianghui came in and said in a low voice.

After Niu Gulu heard this, he sneered: "Usually, it's the one who likes to come and doesn't like to come, but today all come." Niu Gulu waved his hand, "Let them come in, one by one, not just to find out about Yu'er of."

Concubine Tong came in first, smiling, followed by concubine Nalashi and concubine Ma Jiashi with a pot belly.

"There is no need to be too polite, Xianghui, show the concubine Shu a seat."

Mrs. Niu Gulu stopped Tong Bin and others from saluting, while little Niu Gulu stood up and saluted Tong Bin. After everyone sat down in their own order, Tong Bin smiled and said: "It seems that the slaves are here. It's too early, disturbing the empress."

"It's a bit early, but it doesn't matter, the time is almost here." Niu Gulu smiled, looked at Ma Jia and said, "You want to be a person who is ready for the offer, and you are so careless, don't come here next time Now, the most important thing now is to give birth to the emperor's little elder brother and little Gege."

"Yes." Ma Jiashi lowered her head and put her hands on her stomach.

Tong Bin's eyes darkened, she glanced at Ma Jiashi's stomach from the corner of her eye, she sat down and didn't speak anymore, anyway, Niu Gulu didn't want to see her, and she didn't want to see Niu Gulu either, if it wasn't for meeting Na Gang Concubine Xi who entered the palace, she didn't want to come here so early.

Nalashi started talking to Niu Gulushi. The other nobles were too low-level, and Niu Gulu didn't want to see them, so he didn't let them come to pay her respects.

When Daiyu came, she only saw three people besides the two Niu Gulu clans.
