Chapter 706 Bring the Child Over
"Do you think I want to come? I'm still dizzy!" Hui Fei rubbed her forehead, picked up the brush angrily, dipped it in the ink that the servants had ground in advance, and glared at De Fei beside her fiercely: "It's all your fault, you had to make a fuss, and now you are so happy."
Defei curled her lips coldly, spread out the paper, and glanced at Huifei beside her: "Can you blame me for this? When you curse others behind their backs, why don't you think about the consequences? If I hear it again next time, I will definitely make a bigger fuss than this time. At worst, I can just write some Heart Sutra. Anyway, I'm in good health, so it's no big deal to write for two more days!"
Concubine Hui's hands were shaking with anger: "You are simply unreasonable! Like a shrew!"
"Who's the shrew? Say it again! Believe it or not, I'll drag you to the emperor to seek justice now!"
Concubine De narrowed her eyes, immediately put the paperweight heavily on the table, and stared at Concubine Hui.
Concubine Hui had already witnessed Concubine De's stubborn attitude and was afraid that she would go crazy again. She gritted her teeth secretly and only muttered a few unreasonable words, but did not dare to say anything else.
"You two are still angry? I should be angry, okay? I'm the one who's been wronged the most! How come I ran into you two in such a good year?"
The more Rong Fei thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. They were the ones who started the quarrel, and she had to intervene to stop them. Not only was she furious, but she was also punished by being forced to copy scriptures with them! What kind of thing was this?
Thinking of this, he suddenly put down his pen in anger and sat down on the chair.
Just as he sat down, he saw Li Dequan coming into the side hall with a smile on his face.
Rong Fei was startled and immediately stood up from her chair and picked up the pen again.
Li Dequan glanced at them but pretended not to notice. He coughed lightly and said, "My lords, the emperor said there were a few chairs missing outside. He thought the ladies would not need them for copying the Heart Sutra, so he asked me to move them out."
As he spoke, he winked at the young eunuchs, who immediately ran over and moved out the few chairs left in the room.
After hearing this, Concubine De began to feel nervous. It seemed that the emperor was really angry and didn't even leave a chair for them.
There is so much in the Heart Sutra. If I really want to finish it as the emperor said, I am afraid it will take until tomorrow.
Rong Fei's face froze for a moment, she took a deep breath, glanced at Li Dequan beside her and said, "The chair has been moved out, and Eunuch should go and get busy."
Li Dequan laughed again, and then bowed and said, "The Emperor has ordered that I accompany the ladies here to write. If the ladies have any instructions, just let me know..."
Rong Fei: “…”
The emperor really left me no chance of survival and even called a supervisor over!
With Li Dequan here, the three of them dared not slack off. They had no choice but to straighten their backs and copy diligently. They complained bitterly for a while.
While warming the wine, he couldn't help but glance towards the side hall and whispered to the Fourth Master, "Master, we have to help the Empress."
Speaking of which, Concubine De is not young anymore.
In addition, they were concubines, and the bottoms of the flower pots under their feet were higher than their own, and the hair on their heads was bigger than their heads, plus tassel hairpins and the like, just standing was tiring enough.
Wenjiu's body is already in very good condition. After wearing crotch-potted shoes all day, she now feels a little sore in her feet, not to mention that they are so old.
And he has to keep his back straight while copying Buddhist scriptures. How can his body handle that?
After hearing what Wen Jiu said, the Fourth Master raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why? Do you have a solution?"
Wenjiu blinked: "Hmm...it seems not."
The Fourth Master glanced down at her, and the next second he stuffed a beef skewer into her mouth: "If you don't have any, eat it first."
Wen Jiu silently took the skewers and said, "...Okay."
"Father, I'm full and want to go out for a walk."
Emperor Kangxi was sitting in front of a baking tray with the Ninth Master at the moment, trying to figure out how to bake something to eat. Then he saw the Fourteenth Master standing up with a bunch of skewers and answering him.
Emperor Kangxi frowned slightly: "Why don't you go out for a walk? What are you going to do with so many skewers?"
Fourteen chuckled, "Son, aren't you thinking of sending some to your nephews? Fourth brother and his wife are here, and the children have no one to look after them. They've just arrived in a strange place, and I'm afraid they'll cry, so I want to go check on them."
I haven't seen Dabao for a long time. The boy hugged my neck and fed me a piece of candy.
Fourteenth felt that he should always show some reciprocity.
Thinking of Dabao hugging his neck and calling him Uncle Fourteen, Uncle Fourteen, Fourteen laughed so hard that his mouth almost reached his ears.
When Emperor Kangxi saw the way his son laughed, he became furious.
His mother was still in the house copying Buddhist scriptures as punishment. And yet he was so happy, happily taking food and going to play with his little nephew?
I really don't know whether to say he is careless or stupid.
Looking at the bunch of red meat skewers in his hand, Emperor Kangxi wanted to kick him twice.
"Don't you know how old your nephews are now? Can they eat these things?"
Fourteenth usually loved spicy food. He took a look at the skewers and didn't think there was anything wrong with them. "Father, why can't we eat it? The imperial physician said that eating less spicy food is good for the body. Besides, I know what's going on. I even grilled some non-spicy food. If they don't like it, they can have this instead."
Emperor Kangxi glanced at his youngest son's show-off appearance. He suddenly felt a tightness in his chest due to his anger. He pointed at him twice and said, "You are really promising."
At that moment, he turned to look at Liang Jiugong beside him and said, "Go to the East Third House and pick up the children."
The words frightened the Fourth Master, who frowned slightly and looked up at Emperor Kangxi. "Father, the child is still young. If he comes, he might cause trouble. How about letting the Fourteenth Master go over and take a look?"
Emperor Kangxi glared and said, "I have so many people here! I'm not afraid of them making trouble!"
He then glanced at Liang Jiugong beside him and said, "Go pick them up yourself and give the children more clothes. It's cold outside, so go quickly and come back soon."
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Wait, ask someone to bring a sedan chair to pick him up."
Liang Jiugong was not too surprised, as the emperor always showed special love to these children.
He responded immediately and took people to the East Third Office to pick up the person.
The Fourth Master subconsciously glanced at Wenjiu beside him. Seeing Wenjiu's tightly knitted brows, he patted her hands and handed her another bunch of roasted mushrooms: "It's okay, you eat yours. It's good to have the kids come over and have some fun."
The Fourth Master felt that there was nothing shameful about his son. He was over one year old, so it wouldn't be too eye-catching if he talked more.
