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

"I woke you up." Kangxi smiled, leaned over and kissed Jiang Ling lightly on the forehead.

Jiang Ling was dazed for a moment, just about to stop his movement, Kangxi had straightened up, put his hand on her neck, and said slowly: "It's because I've been negligent these days, you are a woman, you can't work like an ordinary man. Rest for a while, I am here with you."

"Your Majesty, I..." She wanted to say that she was fine, but she didn't know how to speak.

Kangxi smiled softly, bent down, and was less than half an inch away from her face, stroked her cheek inch by inch with his fingertips, and continued: "I am too eager these days, and I have tired you instead." He said, Suddenly shaking his head slightly, he laughed at himself.

"No..." She couldn't continue after she said a word.

The concern in his eyes was not fake, and his fingertips were still slightly hot, obviously because he rushed back from outside in a hurry and didn't have time to rest.Jiang Ling pressed the back of his hand, thinking a little guiltily, this is the first time that he felt guilty because of his actions.

However, there are some things she can't say at all.

Supernatural abilities and the end of the world are the biggest secrets in Jiang Ling's heart, no matter who they are, she will never tell them.

Kangxi noticed her little intimacy, and there was more gentleness in his eyes, he pulled the corner of the quilt for Jiang Ling a little, and said softly: "They have already told me everything about today, so you don't have to worry too much. Why, can't you sleep?" His fingers lightly touched Jiang Ling's cheek, and his skin felt slightly cool, not like he had a fever.

Jiang Ling lowered his head and said sadly, "Actually, I'm fine." But he lacked confidence.

Kangxi laughed softly: "Little girl who is brave." He pinched the tip of her nose, and continued, "Just now the imperial doctor told me that you have been overworked these days, and your body is a little weak, and you need to rest for a while. One or two days. Go to sleep. I just want to come and see you, and leave when you fall asleep, don't think about it, huh?" His voice was also a little low, with a little hoarseness.

Jiang Ling closed his eyes, and murmured: "Then, if I infect the wind and cold..."

A finger was lightly pressed on her lips, Kangxi slowly shook his head and said, "Don't talk nonsense."

Jiang Ling was about to say something more, when suddenly he covered his eyes with his hands, and his eyes suddenly became pitch black, and even his slightly confused thoughts became calm.She knew this meant letting herself sleep peacefully.Every time Kangxi made this move, it would make her calm down slowly, and then she would gradually immerse herself in dreams.

Forget it, it's not the first time I know that this person treats me very well.

Jiang Ling closed his eyes, gradually slowed down his breathing, and fell asleep as usual.Her energy was originally higher than that of ordinary people, and it was difficult to fall asleep, but these days, she became a habit around Kangxi, and she gradually became sleepy, and fell asleep without knowing it.

I don't know when Kangxi left. When he woke up, there was still some temperature on his side, and there was a shallow dent.

Jiang Ling hugged the quilt and sat on the bed, looked at the dent with her eyes, thinking, Kangxi must have slept here last night.

Not long after he got up, a maid entered the room to help Jiang Ling get up and wash up.Because of her "infected with the wind and cold", the movements of the maids became extremely gentle today, and even their voices were lowered three degrees, as if they were afraid of disturbing her.Jiang Ling was a little dumbfounded, and recalled what Kangxi said last night, and the slight sense of guilt in his heart unknowingly became stronger.

In any case, after the two-day rest period, she will be able to "heal".

After making up his mind, Jiang Ling rested on the bed for two days with peace of mind.In the past two days, no one came to bother her, and every day three or four more imperial physicians came to ask her a doctor, asking if she needed to take care of her for a while longer.Where can Jiang Ling take more time to take care of her, and if she does not get sick, she will get sick again, so she insisted on getting out of bed and walking around, but the imperial doctors couldn't hold her back, so she let her go.

Time soon came to the end of June, and Emperor Luan drove south to Hangzhou, where he stayed for several days before heading to Fujian.

However, Kangxi did not stay in Fujian for long, and after only resting for three or two days, he went all the way south to Guangzhou.

The Thirteen Travels in Guangzhou was the last destination that Kangxi temporarily added during his southern tour.

Jiang Ling was dizzy and dizzy from the tour, and had no choice but to turn on the hibernation mode in the carriage, and made it all the way to Guangzhou in chaos.Originally, when Kangxi stayed in Hangzhou for a day, he wanted to take her to see the sea, but because Jiang Ling's body couldn't bear it, he skipped it, saying that he would take her there again when he returned. take a look.

Those who went to Guangzhou with Kangxi, apart from the first few close officials, were only the officials in Jiangnan and Lingnan.

During the period when Jiang Ling was drowsy, Kangxi had sent most of the accompanying officials back to the capital, and then replaced a group of envoys who dealt with the affairs, and hurried to Lingnan, which coincided with the time when Kangxi arrived in Lingnan.

As for the envoys and merchants who first went to Yangzhou to face the holy, naturally they all went to Guangzhou.

The climate here is indeed hot, especially in early autumn, but it is almost hotter than midsummer.

Jiang Ling stayed in the room and slowly shook the fan, a subtle energy spread along the fan surface, and a thin layer of frost formed after a while.She deliberately chose a milky white round fan, so even the maid who served her personally, no one would notice the strangeness on the fan.She held the round fan to fan the wind for a while, and suddenly remembered that today was the third day in Guangzhou, and she wondered if those merchants were ready to negotiate with the officials and negotiate a new trade agreement.

In fact, she really wanted to know the details of the negotiation.

Jiang Ling looked at the window in the corner, guessing that the time was almost up, so he pushed open the window, flicked two fingers lightly, and a faint fragrance filled the air, like the fragrance of phoenix flowers outside, lingering for a long time go.The boys in the corridor all dozed off in twos and threes, and took a nap in the side room in their free time.That ray of fragrance didn't stop, it didn't stop until it floated into the mansion outside.

There are several officials in the official residence who are working, but because it is afternoon and Shangfeng is not here, they are a little tired.

When the faint fragrance wafted over, they couldn't resist the drowsiness welling up in their bodies at all, so they fell on the desk and took a nap for a while.

All had the same dream.

The dreamland is full of the fragrance of phoenix flowers, just like the phoenix flowers all over the streets and alleys in June, all blooming at the same time.The peddler carried the burden and walked through the streets and alleys. Occasionally, there were two crisp laughter on the street. A woman called the peddler in soft Cantonese and picked silk flowers under the phoenix tree.

The boys walked out of the house in twos and threes and looked outside.

Those officials looked at me and I looked at you, standing on the bustling street at a loss.

A young woman was sitting among the branches and leaves of the poinciana, gently shaking the round fan, and with a tap of her slender fingers, the whole street suddenly became famous. If you understand, talk loudly about when the cargo will land.One of the officials finally moved, stabbed his companion, and whispered, "What is this place?"

Jiang Ling smiled quietly.Here is the dream she created, of course any detail can be changed.

But she was still sitting among the clusters of phoenix flowers, watching the officials below, waiting for them to speak.

The official who was stabbed was a little unhappy, and said, "I don't know." With a little Cantonese-specific high-swelling ending.They looked around for a while, but they didn't see anyone. Instead, two Westerners in front came over and asked if they had negotiated.

The official who was asked was a little impatient, and said: "Why are you in a hurry. With the emperor here, it is not our turn to talk. But you, you actually got into a fight with Mr. Zhang and Mr. Suo a few days ago. You are really audacious. Very much."

One of the Westerners shrugged, indicating that he was not satisfied with the details.

The official became even more impatient, and sneered: "Not satisfied? How can you be satisfied? You can't eat up the Guangzhou Thirteen Banks alone, and now you have to add two provinces. I'm not talking big, you guys That little cargo is not even enough to put a gap between our teeth."

The picture changed in an instant, from a spacious and bright lobby to a bustling street.Merchants from south to north all import and export goods here, speaking with different accents, but everyone is busy, unloading and picking up the goods and leaving in a hurry.

This is Guangzhou Thirteen.

The official who spoke just now became interested, pointed to the street and asked, "No, when will you fill up these streets, come and discuss with us again. Your Majesty is gracious and allows you to put forward some conditions. Don't push yourself too far." .Otherwise, when the time comes, you won’t know how you died. I heard that most of your goods are damaged, and only three out of ten are intact. Is this how you do business?”

Another official said casually: "Since ancient times, merchants have been very cheap, so there is no need to tell them so much."

Those Westerners got together again and muttered a few words.

Finally, an official in front got impatient and stepped forward and said, "This matter is never clear. One is that the tariff will be increased by [-]%, and the other is that no matter what you sell, you have to give us a list. If you can't sell it, you are prohibited from entering the country. Did you hear that? As for those weird gadgets, such as mirrors and clocks, it’s okay to get a couple of them once in a while, but if you want to come in in large quantities, I’m afraid it won’t work.”

The other said: "You can get more wheat from outside. It's almost the same." He is an official released from the north and is used to pasta, but he rarely sees wheat in the south, and he feels uncomfortable if he doesn't eat it for a day.

Those Westerners got together again, muttered for a while, and then one of them said in a blunt tone: "If there are any controversial conditions, please give some examples one by one, we will definitely go back and discuss with the supervisor. of."

The official in front said: "Didn't I tell you just now that the tariff will be increased by [-]%, and the items prohibited from entering the country should not be sold. If you want to go directly to Fujian and Jiangnan, you have to ask if we agree. Don't think that Long Live Wherever you let go, everything will be safe. I tell you, there are many details that need to be finalized. Also, don’t stop the boat on the coast indiscriminately. And what are you, missionary ascetic monks, be restrained on weekdays Son, don’t let each ship come to preach the Gospel. What else is there?... Well, the previous Emperor said that he wanted to open two Yi language schools, do you agree or not?”

None of the Westerners spoke.

The second official said again: "Look, look, look, our sage traveled thousands of miles to Lingnan, and this is how you handle things. Now, go back quickly, with your envoys and the envoys sent by your emperor, Discuss and negotiate carefully. If you can't reach an agreement, then this matter will be considered dirty."

This is the ultimatum.

The few Westerners said goodbye and left without saying anything.The officials smiled, trying to find their way back, but got lost in the fragrance of the phoenix flower.There are still bustling crowds around, merchants and hawkers coming and going, and the big four characters of Guangzhou Commercial Port in front.Although I know that this is the thirteen lines, but compared to the thirteen lines in my memory, it seems that there is something missing.

By the way, it is real popularity.

Although there are indeed hawkers coming and going around, and you can hear all kinds of yelling, with accents from all over the world, but these voices are heard in the ears, no matter what, they seem to be separated by a thin layer of fog. Reality is like someone deliberately set up a stage and invited people to sing in front of it, and they are in this play.

On the phoenix flower tree not far away, Jiang Ling was still shaking his fan slowly, tapping the branches with his fingertips.

wake up.

The few officials looked at each other in blank dismay, and after a quick glance, just a quarter of an hour later, they went on with their own business.

In the inner courtyard, Jiang Ling gently closed the window, shook the round fan covered with thin frost, and said to herself: "It seems that both sides have a lot of appetite, I hope things will go smoothly." She didn't want to be here What means to use at this time.

But if it is really a last resort, it should be used, or it should be used.
