[Red Mansion+Qing Chuan] The heroine comes from the last days

After that, Kangxi spent more than ten days in this room.During the day he would deal with political affairs outside, and at night, he would go back to the house to rest, sometimes to review papers, sometimes to read, and sometimes to take Jiang Ling outside for a walk, it is said that it was for her wounds There are benefits to recovery.Jiang Ling felt uncomfortable at first, but gradually got used to this kind of life.

Although this place is desolate, far less bustling and bustling than Beijing, but fortunately, it is quiet.

Jiang Ling spent her two lifetimes in a highly tense state, especially in the last two years of the end of the world, and the two years when she first came to the world of the Red Chamber, her spirit was so tense to the extreme.Now suddenly there was a place to relax, so he simply took this opportunity to take a rest.In more than ten days, two more letters from Lin Daiyu came, and two more letters from her also went.According to Lin Daiyu's letter, Mrs. Wang seemed to have received the gift that was left to Mrs. Wang earlier, and she fell on her back in anger, which made Jiang Ling feel very relieved.

In June, the imperial physicians finally let go, saying that Jiang Ling would not have to wear gauze all the time.

Correspondingly, her wound medicine was changed to another type, so she no longer had to endure severe pain as before.

When Jiang Ling was taking a bath, he had carefully looked at his wound.It was still a hideous scar, but it had faded to a light pink color, which was not much different from other skin colors.She guessed that it should be the plant hormones she used earlier, which worked again.

According to the doctors, Jiang Ling will be fully recovered in August/September without leaving any traces.

This assertion made Jiang Ling feel relieved for a long time.

But during this period of time, Emperor Kangxi's place was really too peaceful.

Originally, in May, Jiang Ling had some thoughts.She thought that since she wanted to live here for a long time, she should try to adapt to the rules here.If Emperor Kangxi... he wouldn't be unacceptable, he would have survived with his eyes closed anyway.But who would have thought that since that day when she spoke with Kangxi, she actually lived in peace and stability. The emperor, who was in his prime, had never touched a finger of her.Really never touched.

At first Jiang Ling thought it was because of the injuries on his body.

But as her health improved day by day, Kangxi still didn't show signs of calling her to bed, which made her a little puzzled.The houses here are simple, and there are only two or three courtyards. Not only did the living officer watch every move of Emperor Kangxi, but even Jiang Ling saw it carefully.But for more than a whole month, apart from being too busy to touch the ground, there was no extra action.

Jiang Ling once thought that there were only two reasons for this fact:

First, Kangxi is not interested in her.

Second, the government overdrawn his energy too much.

No matter what the reason was, the result made Jiang Ling feel weird.

The nuns advised her to relax her heart and take good care of her body, because her body is her own anyway, as long as she is in good health, no matter what troubles outside, she can cope with it freely.Jiang Ling thought that what the nuns said made sense, so she put those things aside for the time being and continued to heal her wounds.

Until I sent another letter to Lin Daiyu, the time has slowly come to the end of June.

Jiang Ling had just circled the Great Lake and was resting in the house under the orders of the imperial physician and accompanied by the nuns.

After resting for a while, he saw a lot of first- and second-rank officials coming out of the small palace outside, and their attendants went forward to pick them up.Jiang Ling took a breath and suddenly thought that today is not a holiday.

So what are those officials? ...

Before Jiang Ling could figure out why, he saw Emperor Kangxi walking out of the small palace with three or four close officials.Jiang Ling didn't know those few close ministers, but among them there was a man with a high nose and deep eyes, with light hair, who seemed to be a Russian from his height, browbones and cheekbones.Jiang Ling knew that Kangxi was busy with affairs in Tsarist Russia recently, so he looked away.

That night, Kangxi returned an hour earlier than ever before, and from his expression, he seemed to have solved a huge problem.

Jiang Ling waited for the nuns to finish changing their medicines, then sat in the corner to read.These days, she and Kangxi have reached some tacit agreement. When Kangxi was reviewing his papers in the room, she would read quietly in the corner without disturbing each other.But today Kangxi seemed to be very excited. Not only did he smile more than before, but he also pushed away the box of the memorial and did not review it as usual.

Jiang Ling was puzzled, but didn't ask any further questions.

"Go for a walk with me." Kangxi said with a smile.

Jiang Ling put down the book, bowed his head and said yes.These days, she has figured out a way to go out with her when Kangxi is in a good mood.But Jiang Ling just went out for a trip today, and going out again now is "disobedient to the doctor's order" again.

Kangxi had just put a cloak on her, and when he heard that she didn't follow the doctor's advice, he smiled and said: "Then forget it."

Jiang Ling was startled, and was about to ask, when Kangxi suddenly picked her up, and it was a serious princess hug.There was a thump in her heart, and her pupils shrank slightly. Before she could make a sound to stop her, Kangxi had already carried her to the bed, untied the cloak she had tied just now, and lay down beside her, pillowed on his own. With a pair of arms, looking at the beams of the roof, his eyes are full of joy.

Jiang Ling's heartbeat that had just accelerated suddenly slowed down again.

She moved a little inside, and said in a soft voice: "The emperor seems to have a happy event today."

Kangxi glanced at her sideways and smiled: "You can see my joy and anger."

Jiang Ling complained silently in his heart: Isn't it written on his face.

But these words can only be said silently in my heart.

Kangxi's gaze lingered on her face for a moment, as if he could see what she was thinking, then shook his head and smiled: "It's really a happy event today. I got two Russian translators earlier, but they were all confused. Baba, I can’t find any tricks. The credential from Tsarist Russia arrived early this morning, and a translator was also attached. It is said that he is a know-it-all from Russia. I asked, but it is much better than the original two Even Fan Chen, who is used to knowing the affairs of Tsarist Russia, is ashamed of himself."

Jiang Ling leaned back a little, thinking to himself, this is indeed a happy event.

Kangxi continued: "The Russian envoy who came with the interpreter also deliberately confessed to me. According to them, the Russian Emperor Alexei was also in his prime, but because of the distance between the Far East and the capital, Far away, it lost control a little. From the east of the Russian capital to the sea, there are more than a hundred cities in total, so those prisoners who committed crimes in Aihui, oh, are not prisoners, they are garrisons, and they were also arrested by the Tsar As a pawn who abandoned his car to report to the commander, he was ready to be handed over to me. I didn't know that the capital of Russia was in the far west, near the glacier ocean..."

wrong!

According to time calculations, the Russian Emperor Alexei I should have passed away, and the current reigning tsar is the future famous Peter the Great.But when Peter the Great first came to the throne, he was very young, so in Russia now, there are two tsars standing side by side, and their sister Sophia is the regent.

When Jiang Ling was taking world history as an elective, he was extremely impressed by this section.

The last time Jiang Ling returned to the end of the world, when he looked up the events from the 22nd to 24th years of Kangxi, he also compared the current affairs in Russia, and this section was even more impressive.The current Russian Tsar is by no means in his prime, but two young children.And one of the tsars, Ivan, is completely incapable of governing, just like a useless person.

"...So I thought, this matter will probably come to an end here. After a while, I will send envoys to the northeast to demarcate the border with Russia, and then send two battalions of officers and soldiers. They should be able to stabilize the situation. Frontier. Well, I forgot that you are a woman." When Kangxi said this, he suddenly smiled again, looked sideways at Jiang Ling, and said with a smile, "You just think it's because I'm holding back and want to talk to someone. stop."

Jiang Ling pinched the corner of the pillow, and said softly, "I... I have read about Russia in a book."

"Oh?" Kangxi was aroused, and asked with a smile, "What is said in the book?"

Jiang Ling slowly organized his words, trying to make himself less shocking: "The book says that the land of Tsarist Russia is vast, from the sea in the east to the ocean in the west, and the ocean in the north is also frozen all year round, only the east is slightly warmer. The large piece of land to the east of the capital is called Siberia. Siberia is sparsely populated, and there are large areas of inaccessible ice fields. Not to mention hundreds of cities, even manors are very few. Most of the people in their country live in To the west."

Kangxi looked at her sideways, a little surprised and said: "Large land with few people? Few people?"

This is inconsistent with what the Russian envoy and the translator said...

Jiang Ling squeezed her palms, trying to make her words seem reasonable: "The book also said that the further north you go, the more severe the cold will be; when you reach Russia, it will be covered with ice and snow for half a year. Like that kind of place, It's extremely difficult to live in."

— so they are lying.

Jiang Ling hesitated for a moment, then changed the subject, and turned to Siberia again, but did not turn to the Tsar.She didn't want to appear too shocking.It was the first time for Emperor Kangxi to hear such a statement. Although some people had said that the northern border was extremely cold, they had never heard such a detailed statement.He turned sideways, listened quietly for a while, and suddenly felt a very faint fragrance.

Very light, very light.

Hardly noticeable.

Kangxi glanced outside and said with a smile: "It's actually a lotus flower in full bloom today..." Suddenly he felt a little troubled.He had indeed expended a lot of energy today, so he didn't think about anything else. He asked someone to come in and blew out the candle, lay down beside Jiang Ling, and slowly fell asleep in her soft voice.

"I can't find that book, but the words I saw before are still vivid in my memory..." Jiang Ling said slowly.

Kangxi hummed lightly.In the half-dream and half-awake state, it seemed that I heard such a sentence.He felt a little regretful, if he could find that book, he might be able to compare it with the envoy one by one, so that they would give up more benefits.Unknowingly, he had a dream.

During the day, at noon, there are two or three courtyards scattered, not too small to look like a palace.

He saw the officials filing out, and he, three or four close ministers, and the Russian translator, who was also a missionary, came out of the palace.The Russian translator still had a strange tone, but what he said was very different from what he had just heard:

"Our old tsar has just passed away, and the new tsar has two children. Well, why two, you ask? Because unfortunately, our sire Peter is too young, and sire Ivan can't even take care of himself. Can you manage state affairs? So now, the elder sister of the two Majesties, His Majesty Sophia, is in power. After all, Her Majesty Sophia is young, and she has just encountered an accident..."

Kangxi heard himself questioning, "What about the Aihui matter?"

The Russian translator and missionary shrugged and said, "How do I know? Maybe it's Her Majesty Sophia's inability to control the Far East, maybe those damn nobles are fighting each other, or maybe it's old Alexievich After being called by the Lord, I finally came to my senses. Siberia is full of snow, especially northern Siberia. We are not the frost giants in the legend. Oh, you ask the Far East? Haha, the mouth of the Far East...is warm climate... the vast black land..."

Kangxi was startled suddenly, and sat up in the dark, his eyes were full of cruelty.

wake up.

The woman beside her had already fallen asleep, her breathing was clear and light, and she had obviously fallen asleep.A very faint fragrance permeates around me, like the fragrance of lotus flowers floating in from the window, very faint, almost indistinguishable.Kangxi glanced at Genglou who was next to him, and the water droplets were already pattering, overflowing the line of Choushi.
