Chapter 264 Kangxi's cold face "washing underwear" Nan Guo met
In the end, seeing that Li Dequan was still silent, Kangxi had no choice but to speak coldly:
"I heard that Xixi is not in good spirits. I am a little worried. I happen to have some free time now, so I will go and see it."
After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the door. Before leaving, he glanced coldly at Li Dequan.
Li Dequan shuddered when he was looked at, his back was wet with sweat, and he thought in fear, did he say something wrong just now?
However, he had no time to think deeply at this moment. He quickly suppressed his anxiety and chased after the emperor, while flicking his whisk and singing a salute loudly:
"The Emperor is leaving for the East Cross Courtyard."
The east wing where Shi Nanxi lived was just behind the Yanbo Zhishuang Hall. It could be reached by walking around the side hall and through the corridor. Because it was close, the news of Kangxi's coming quickly reached Shi Nanxi's ears.
When Nanny Yang and Hongying learned about it, they were very happy for the Empress.
"My lady, you heard that the Emperor came here. It seems that he knows that you were bullied by those people. As expected, I said that the Emperor is sincere to you. He did not come to visit you in person last night because it was inconvenient."
Hongying was very happy for the Empress.
Nanny Yang also looked relieved.
However, Shi Nanxi, the person involved, did not show any emotion at all. All her energy was now focused on the conspiracy against herself and investigating the spies around her. She had no time to deal with Kangxi.
What's more, Kangxi was inconvenienced last night simply because of his look, but it was also his own fault. Who made him let Chen Da Ying in?
Moreover, he saw that she was not feeling well last night and was deeply traumatized. He neither came to see her nor to explain. She didn't want to see him at all now.
It just so happens that now we need Chen to openly attract other people's attention to his relationship with Kangxi, so there is no need to reconcile with him for the time being.
So Shi Nanxi put down her teacup and avoided talking about Kangxi.
"Xixi is not in good spirits. I will take her outside for a walk. Maybe she will feel better."
After saying this, he stood up and walked towards the door without waiting for anyone to react. Nanny Yang and Hongying were stunned for a moment, they looked at each other, and then hurried to follow their master.
When they arrived at the side hall, Qing'er heard that the queen wanted to take Xixi for a walk, and while untying the rope, she said:
"My lady, I heard that the 20th scene of the Rehe Palace, the Wanshu Garden, has many ancient trees that block out the sun and the ground is covered with green grass. It is very suitable for taking a walk. Why don't we go there and take a look?"
Shi Nanxi didn't care. She just wanted to avoid Kangxi. As the group and Xixi walked out of the east wing through the back door, Kangxi came with his men from the side hall. Everyone in the east wing knelt on the ground.
"Your servant/your servant pays respects to His Majesty. May Your Majesty be blessed with good health and good health."
Kangxi looked straight ahead, walked straight past the servants and entered the bedroom. However, he was so happy that he came here only to find that Shi Nanxi was nowhere to be found after searching the entire hall of the dormitory. He came out with a face as dark as ink.
"Where is Concubine Xian?"
The leader, Xiao Ruzi, licked his lips and replied:
"Your Majesty, it's a pity that the Queen saw that Xixi was in a bad mood and was afraid that she would get bored, so she just took Xixi for a walk."
How could it be such a coincidence that he had just arrived and the little girl had just taken Xixi for a walk. This high-sounding excuse could not fool Kangxi at all.
She was deliberately avoiding him. After coming to this conclusion, Kangxi felt as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water on him, chilling him from head to toe.
As soon as he learned that she was being bullied, he came over immediately. He didn't even mind the way she looked at him last night and made excuses for himself to come over. However, when he came over with full of longing and anxious concern, he only saw an empty house.
A cool breeze blew in late autumn. Kangxi, standing in the corridor, had a blank expression on his face. The palace maids around him lowered their heads one after another. Xiao Ruzi was even more nervous. What on earth was the Empress thinking?
Kangxi was also wondering what Shi Nanxi was thinking.
What am I in her eyes?
Does she really care about him?
Or does she say she believes it, but in reality she still doesn't believe in the innocence of what he and Chen promised?
Shi Nanxi was unaware of Kangxi's self-doubt. After leaving Yanbo Zhishuang Palace, she headed towards Wanshu Garden.
"It's just like Qing'er said. There are trees everywhere. The trees are really big, but the leaves on the trees are all yellow!"
Hongying was amazed, then looked at the ground:
"The grass on the ground has turned yellow. We came at the wrong time. It would be nice if we came in spring. It would be green then."
Qing Er also saw it and quickly bowed to apologize:
"My lady, it was all because of my carelessness that I forgot it was late autumn. My lady came here for nothing."
Shi Nanxi held Xixi in her arms and didn't care:
"It's not your fault. I didn't react when I heard it. Besides, even if there are no trees blocking the sun and no green grass all over the ground, it still has a different kind of beauty. Don't you think the large expanse of bright yellow looks nice from afar?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xixi in Shi Nanxi's arms meowed twice, as if agreeing with the mistress's words.
Qing'er was relieved to see that the queen really didn't care. Shi Nanxi put Xixi down and let it run on the ground. She slowly pulled the leash.
At the same time, on the other side of Wanshu Garden, Guo Luoluo Jirgalang and his servant were strolling slowly to avoid Tong Jia Wanru.
"Master, Fu Jin has gone too far this time. She didn't even let you sleep on the bed last night, and even drove you to the couch. You are her husband, and you should obey your father at home and your husband after marriage. It was okay in the mansion before, but this happened outside. If people knew about it, where would your face be!"
The servant knew that the marriage between the concubine and his master was plotted, which resulted in the concubine, who could have entered the palace as a queen, marrying the master in a hurry and in a respectable manner.
So he could understand that she blamed her own grandfather, did not give his grandfather face, and that the relationship between them was cold.
But she has been married for several months, and the matter is a foregone conclusion. Life must go on, and no matter how big the resentment is, it should be put away. Besides, it is not just his master's problem.
What's more, this is outside, so I have to give face to my grandfather, and I feel very unfair for him.
Guo Luoluo Jirgalang looked indifferent. It was inconvenient to live outside. As they were husband and wife, they naturally lived in the same room. Tong Jia Wanru didn't want to face him, and he didn't want to face her either. They could just put up with it at night, but they didn't want to face her all day long.
"Well, we finally came to Rehe Palace. What's the point of staying in the house? Didn't you say you wanted to see Wanshu Garden? This is Wanshu Garden."
The servant was somewhat disappointed when he heard this. He looked up at the surrounding scenery and was immediately disappointed:
"This is the Ten Thousand Trees Garden. There are many trees, but the leaves are all yellow and the grass is withered. It doesn't look good at all. I really believed it and came here just because someone told me about it."
Guo Luoluo Jirgalang stood with his hands behind his back, walking slowly and leisurely.
"I think it's pretty good. There are few people and it's quiet."
The boy pursed his lips and was about to speak, but at this moment, his peripheral vision suddenly caught a glimpse in a certain direction. He immediately forgot what he was going to say and exclaimed:
"Master, is that Empress Xian?"
Upon hearing this, Guo Luoluo Jirgalang suddenly stopped and looked in the direction of the servant's gaze. As expected, he saw Empress Xian and her entourage walking towards him.
The group of people led by Shi Nanxi on the opposite side also spotted Guo Luoluo and Jirgalang and his servant, and stopped as well.
