Leaning in Kangxi's arms, Jiang Ling couldn't help smiling again when he heard him talking about offering sacrifices to heaven.

It was already approaching October, and it would be at least mid-July when Kangxi set off to return to Beijing.Guangzhou City is far away from Lingnan, from here all the way back to Hangzhou, Yangzhou, Jinling, and then to Mount Tai in Shandong, at least it will be September or October.In addition, there are so many and complicated things about sacrifices, it will definitely not be done within ten days and half a month.Calculated in this way, when we return to the capital, it should be winter.

But I don't know what it will be like after returning to Beijing.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ling suddenly turned over in Kangxi's arms again, looked up at his side face, and asked softly: "Has the emperor made up his mind? On the return journey, he wants to go to Mount Tai to sacrifice to heaven?"

Kangxi nodded slowly and said: "It has been decided."

Jiang Ling leaned back into his arms, closed her eyes, and suddenly felt uncomfortable.She knew how important Mount Tai was to the emperor.Just now I made a snowstorm in June. If I really got to the foot of Mount Tai, I don’t know if I can pass the test of God.

Kangxi hugged her waist, patted her shoulders, and said with emotion: "Today's matter really went too smoothly. Even the old minister who has been with me for more than 20 years feels a little unbelievable. Presumably it should be God blesses me to pass this test." When he said this, he suddenly smiled, leaned over and kissed her forehead lightly, and said with a low smile, "Of course, it's because of you."

If Jiang Ling hadn't mentioned some things at the beginning, I'm afraid it wouldn't be as smooth as it is today.

Jiang Ling closed her eyes, and passively endured the kiss. After a long time, she asked in a low voice, "Don't the Emperor suspect me of meddling in politics?"

This question has been in her mind for a long time, and it was not until today that she really asked it.

Jiang Ling waited for a while without any response, then looked up at Kangxi, and asked softly, "Your Majesty?"

Kangxi froze for a long time, then tapped her forehead lightly, and said with a smile, "What are you thinking about in your little head?"

"Whether you do politics or not, it doesn't count if you say it, and it doesn't count if I say it. It won't be counted until those ministers are impeached." When Kangxi said this, he suddenly laughed softly and squeezed With the tip of her nose, she said, "You are training Huang Mama together."

"I do not have it.

Jiang Ling stared at him blankly, and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.The Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang's intervention in political affairs was not just one or two, but 90.00% of the affairs were done. Otherwise, at the age of six when Shunzhi was six years old and Kangxi was eight years old, he would definitely not be able to stabilize the situation.Where did the saying "the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics" come from? Did she remember it wrong?

When Kangxi saw her expression, he couldn't help but smiled again, hugged her in his arms, and said in a low voice: "Ling'er knows how to behave, so naturally there are not so many rules. I will tell you when I return to Jingzhen." , who can interfere and which cannot. Now..."

He turned over and pressed her under the thin quilt, rubbing the bead with his fingers, and said in a low voice: "Give me a child first."

It was followed by light and shallow kisses all the way, which made her mind so confused that she almost couldn't think of anything.It wasn't until the curtain outside fell that she suddenly woke up. What did Kangxi call her just now? ...

It came again and again, every time I encountered this title, it was when Kangxi gradually revealed his emotions.

It's gonna be tough tonight, woo.

When the love was at its peak, he suddenly asked her in a low voice: "Do you like it?"

She blushed instantly, turned her head away, and said nothing.There was muffled low laughter again, and someone said to himself: "That means I like it. Great, if you don't like it, I have to doubt myself..."

Jiang Ling stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, causing another burst of low laughter.

"If Ling'er likes it, then of course there's no need to be ashamed." He caressed her face inch by inch, looking into her eyes, still with that very faint smile, with a hint of teasing, and A very natural intimacy.I don't know if it's her illusion, Kangxi has been a little crazy every night during this period, which means that the king will not go to court early.Although he often got up earlier than her the next day.

Jiang Ling thought vaguely, one day, he would be assimilated by this guy too.

The hazy shadow slanted on the tent, and there was a vague aura that made people blush and heartbeat.For a moment, she forgot where she was again, like a small boat that was heaving with the wind and waves, rolling like a squall, only the beauty of the room remained.

The next morning, Jiang Ling took it for granted and slept until the sun was up.

In the afternoon, a little eunuch came over and told her that the emperor had just issued an order to return to Beijing in [-] days, which was exactly the same time as Jiang Ling estimated last night.Jiang Ling nodded calmly and told him to retreat, while she sat in the room, staring at the phoenix flowers and trees outside in a daze.

These flowers were beaten by yesterday's frost and snow, and more than half of them were wilted.

Jiang Ling was tossed hard last night, plus four storms were created in a row during the day, all the strength in his body was drained, and he was limp and unable to lift his spirits all day long.Instead, Lin Daiyu's letter was finally delivered to her, and she flipped through it for a while, most of which was describing her life after marriage, and there was a sentence or two that mentioned Rongguo Mansion, but there were very few words.

Lin Daiyu said that the turmoil in Beijing gradually subsided.

Jia Lian's move to Jinling to clean up the ancestral property obviously had an effect. Now in the capital, except for Xue's family, whose life is a little tight, the rest is peaceful.Xue Pan was sent to prison, but the Xue family was still supported by Xue Baochai, and there was another Xue Biao, who was also preparing for the imperial examination. Although life was tense, he was not hurt.As for the original Wang family, because the old man Wang was demoted, it has subsided a lot, but the foundation of the family is still there, and life is not very difficult.

And because of the attack on the Wang family, Mrs. Wang has restrained herself a lot these days.

Jiang Ling wrote back a letter to Lin Daiyu, but because he had nothing to write, he wrote some daily trivial matters in bits and pieces, and mentioned his life in Guangzhou.Although the time for Kangxi's return trip has been set, she didn't dare to mention it. Who knows if someone will take this opportunity to make a big fuss.The people in Beijing are all good people.

It was not until the third day that some rumors arose in Guangzhou, saying that it was God who was angry, and that was why the June blizzard fell.

Jiang Ling didn't want to make things too abrupt, so he created two more small hailstorms.Compared with snow in June, hail in July is not so rare for Nanyue, at least once in 30 to [-] years.Unknowingly, that June blizzard became a legend, which only existed in people's gossip topics. Although they enjoyed talking about it, it didn't cause any panic.

People in the south really don't care much about these details.

After resting for three to five days, everything calmed down and Kangxi's affairs were handled quickly, so he started to go back home.During the southern tour just now, Kangxi actually brought a lot of people with him, but along the way, some returned to Beijing ahead of schedule, some stayed in Yangzhou and Jinling, and some were left by Kangxi to finish in Guangzhou. Less than half of them went back.The light car is simple and easy, and the speed is much faster.

In August, they passed through Hangzhou, and she was taken to the end of the Qiantang River by Kangxi, saying that she was looking at the sea.

The Qiantang River's big tide wave after wave has triggered many memories of Jiang Ling's previous life.

After staying in Hangzhou for two or three days, I went north all the way and returned to Yangzhou and Suzhou.According to Lin Daiyu's letter, Jiang Ling brought a letter to Lin Daiyu's family in Suzhou, and some words from King Beijing.People from the Lin family in Suzhou were overjoyed to see Jiang Ling for a while, and asked her many things about Lin Daiyu in Beijing, and Jiang Ling answered them one by one.

After leaving Suzhou, he headed north all the way to Shandong.

Jiang Ling once asked Kangxi why he didn't return to Jinling this time.

Kangxi replied: "The reason why I came to Jinling at the beginning was to clean up those salt merchants. Now that they have been cleaned up and my people stay in Suzhou and Yangzhou, Jinling naturally becomes dispensable. Besides—" He Smiled, but the smile was a bit cold, "When I was still in Jinling earlier, someone had already made arrangements in Jinling in advance. Going to Jinling now will do more harm than good."

Jiang Ling guessed that this should refer to the four families of King Xue and Jia Shi.

But Kangxi only vaguely mentioned one point, but did not go further.

So the emperor's Luanjia drove all the way north, and didn't stop until it reached the territory of Shandong.Sacrificing to the sky is hard work, and Jiang Ling was a little tired because of dizziness (horse) carriage, so Kangxi left him in the city for two days.

When Kangxi returned to the city, Jiang Ling heard that there was a rare sight on Mount Tai.

It is also said that this trip to worship the heavens is smoother than the previous ones.

Jiang Ling didn't know what the reason was, so after listening for a while, he passed.When the sacrifice to heaven was over, Luanjia set off back to Beijing again, passing many interesting places along the way.Jiang Ling's estimated date was very accurate. When he returned to the capital, it was already mid-to-late October, the wind was bleak, and there was even light snow in the sky. It was already the beginning of winter.

This was Kangxi's longest southern tour, and he was almost on the road from the end of spring to the beginning of winter.

On the first day back to Beijing, Jiang Ling received a letter from Kangxi, asking her to stay in the Empress Dowager's bedroom and not to go anywhere.But in that handbook, there was no mention of the slightest reason.After Jiang Ling received the letter, he sent someone to send it to the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager also replied: Then stay here.

So Jiang Ling continued to live in the Empress Dowager's palace without moving her position at all.

However, on the second day, many more people came to visit one after another. Some asked her about her health, some made insinuations, and some asked her if Kangxi had met any "gentle and graceful Jiangnan women" on the road and wanted to take her in. In the harem as a concubine.However, Jiang Ling hadn't seen many of these people, most of them were blocked by Aunt Su Ma, and said with a straight face, the young master has just returned to Beijing and needs to rest, you should wait until the young master has rested, It's not too late to visit again.

By the way, the Empress Dowager also saved her daily morning and evening schedule.

The longer Jiang Ling lived in the palace, the more strange he felt.Before the southern tour, although Kangxi also let her live in the Empress Dowager's palace, although Lagu Su Ma would block these people for her, she has never been like this now, and even some ordinary entertainments have been turned down by her. Understand.Sometimes, when Jiang Ling wanted to go out for a walk, Aunt Su Ma would stop her and tell her explicitly and secretly that now was not the right time.

Jiang Ling asked Aunt Su Ma, when is the right time?

Aunt Su Ma was silent for a long time before she said, it depends on when the emperor will finish the matter.

After speaking, he glanced at Jiang Ling, and his eyes fell on her pair of pearl earrings, his eyes were a little complicated.

Jiang Ling touched his earrings and thought to himself, this pair of rare light blue pearls really looked a little eye-catching.

But she didn't think about the deeper things.

Two days later, the time agreed to meet Lin Daiyu was coming soon, Jiang Ling just mentioned to the Empress Dowager that he wanted to go out of the palace to pay respects to the Buddha, the Empress Dowager glanced at her and wiped it away with a tea cover. The foam on the tea said calmly: "Do you want to meet your handkerchief handkerchief? The emperor mentioned it to me yesterday. I have sent someone to bring her to the palace early this morning. You No need to leave the palace."

As the Empress Dowager said, her eyes fell on Jiang Ling's earlobe intentionally or unintentionally, her eyes were quite complicated.
