Chapter 492 Emperor Kangxi: Take the Imperial Edict and Get Out
Emperor Kangxi had long expected that the Fourth Master would say this, but he had not expected that he could not even survive a day and would say it so readily. He was immediately furious and picked up a paperweight and wanted to throw it down.
Liang Jiugong immediately knelt down again and said, "Your Majesty, this is absolutely not possible. Prince Yong has just recovered from a serious illness..."
Whenever the Emperor and the Fourth Master were in the same space, there would inevitably be some quarrels. Liang Jiugong was now very familiar with mediating quarrels.
Emperor Kangxi was so angry that he finally took the memorial and threw it at the Fourth Master.
The Fourth Master was hit twice lightly, as if he was tickled. He just lowered his head and said nothing for a while.
Emperor Kangxi was so angry when he saw his expression.
However, this son had also been ill for a long time and was injured while saving his younger son. He also had made great contributions in protecting the emperor during the southern tour. Emperor Kangxi could not bear to blame him and finally slammed the table in extreme anger: "Evil creature, what an evil creature!"
Emperor Kangxi cursed for a long time before waving to Liang Jiugong beside him: "Where is the imperial edict?"
Liang Jiugong was stunned for a moment, then he reacted immediately. He went to the box next to him, took out the imperial edict that Emperor Kangxi had drafted yesterday, and presented it.
Emperor Kangxi didn't even glance at it. He took it and threw it directly to the ground: "Take it and get out of here."
A hint of confusion flashed across the Fourth Master's narrow eyes, and he immediately leaned over and picked up the imperial edict.
Upon closer inspection, it was the imperial edict appointing Jiu'er as Consort Jin. The Fourth Master's brows immediately relaxed: "Thank you, Father."
Seeing the sullen look on Emperor Kangxi's face, the Fourth Master added, "Jiu'er was still worried about your health when he woke up this morning, so he deliberately asked me to bring some food. I'll have my servant get it now."
Jiu'er hadn't woken up yet, so naturally, there was no way to order food. Today, the Fourth Master had brought over a lot of food from Wenjiu, all of which were the favorites of the Emperor's father and mother. He was thinking of trying to win her favor, and it had to be said that Jiu'er's food was quite useful.
After hearing this, the anger on Emperor Kangxi's face dissipated a little.
When I think about it carefully, Wenjiu is indeed a thoughtful girl.
After the imperial edict appointing him as a concubine was thrown down, Emperor Kangxi actually felt a little relieved.
These days, both the Empress Dowager and the Virtuous Concubine would often ask him to warm up the wine.
The fourth brother also repeated it several times, but this imperial decree shut them all up.
Feeling a little better, Emperor Kangxi no longer disliked the Fourth Master and asked again, "How are you?"
The Fourth Master simply said, "Don't worry, Father. The poison in my son's body has long been cleared. The Imperial Physician said it was simply due to overwork. He will recover after a good rest."
Recalling something, the Fourth Master continued, "Thank you, Father, for not disturbing me recently. After waking from this coma, I feel refreshed and full of energy."
When Emperor Kangxi heard the Fourth Master talking about this, he suddenly remembered to warm up the wine. A puzzled look appeared on his face. He looked at his fourth son again and found that he looked very healthy and strong.
"As long as you're well, I'm fine. Your grandmother and your mother are both worried about you. Go and pay your respects later so they can take a good look at you."
The Fourth Master nodded immediately: "Yes."
"Wait," seeing that the Fourth Master was about to go out, Emperor Kangxi stopped him again.
"Does the Emperor have any other instructions?" The Fourth Master paused, turned around and asked with a fist salute.
Emperor Kangxi gave another warning: "The imperial edict in your hand will be announced after the wine is delivered. Her family background is not good enough now. If you rashly give her the position of concubine, you will inevitably fail to convince the public."
The Fourth Master was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "The Emperor is indeed thoughtful."
From Jiu'er's perspective, it would be better to confer the title after the birth. However, since the imperial edict is already coming down in three or four months, there's no need to rush. It would also be helpful to give Jiu'er more confidence.
Emperor Kangxi continued, "I have two longevity locks in my storeroom. They were inlaid with longevity stones that my grandmother painstakingly found. I'm going to bring them back to you and give them to you as a warm gift."
The Fourth Master was stunned. He couldn't understand the Emperor's behavior.
The Emperor had been holding back on issuing the imperial edict, and the Fourth Master thought that the Emperor was somewhat dissatisfied with Jiu'er.
I never thought that I would be rewarded with such a precious thing. The longevity lock was made by my ancestors for the emperor, which shows how precious it is. The emperor even specifically said it was for Jiu'er, which is really strange.
Furthermore, the imperial edict conferring the title of Consort on the Emperor had clearly been prepared long ago...
Or was it that the Emperor had already considered conferring the title? If not, why did he need to write the imperial edict in advance?
Now it seems that the emperor still values Jiuer very much.
The Fourth Master was thinking a lot, but in fact, it only took the blink of an eye for him to finish his thought. He immediately bowed and said, "Your Highness, I thank you."
Emperor Kangxi waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
After seeing the Fourth Master off, Liang Jiugong said, "Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Liu is here to check your pulse."
Emperor Kangxi nodded immediately and let Doctor Liu in.
After Imperial Physician Liu examined Emperor Kangxi's pulse, he smiled and asked, "Your Majesty, have you had any pain in your legs lately?"
Emperor Kangxi shook his head: "No."
Doctor Liu continued, "Your leg disease has almost healed. You don't need Miss Wen's wine anymore. Just apply a compress daily and be careful not to bump or bruise it, and you'll be fine."
Emperor Kangxi felt a little uncomfortable when he heard what Doctor Liu said.
It is said that the fourth child had not woken up for several days. Emperor Kangxi was in a very bad mood these days and even regretted listening to Wen Jiu and Doctor Liu.
How can a person who has been in a coma ever recover? That's nonsense.
If it weren't for the busy affairs at court, Emperor Kangxi would have rushed to the Fourth Master's residence, and he also had a strong impression of Wen Jiu in his heart. He felt that this girl Wen was just being too clever.
But I never thought that the fourth brother was really energetic after sleeping for these two days. Now it seems that Wen girl was wronged.
When she heard Doctor Liu say that Wenjiu was always concerned about her health, and even the doctor's medicine was obtained from Wenjiu, for a moment, she felt that giving him a concubine was nothing.
Let’s not even look at the achievements this girl has made over such a long time. Just look at the fact that she is pregnant with two grandchildren.
Emperor Kangxi tapped his fingers on the table and continued, "Liang Jiugong, go to the storehouse and get a thousand taels of gold. Have the fourth son take it back to Wenjiu and say that I'm doing business with him for fun."
