Emperor Kangxi angrily went off to deal with state affairs.
Xue Li was having a peaceful and safe pregnancy. Looking at Lian'er, Xue Li asked her a question.
"You're getting old, do you want to leave the palace and start a family?"
Lian'er glanced at her secretly and said that her family had arranged a marriage between her and the steward of the manor.
Sherry nodded, gave her a dowry, and begged Emperor Kangxi to send her out of the palace.
Thus, it was Mei'er's turn and the spies of Chuxiu Palace.
Actually, it's nothing much, just people from the Crown Prince, Emperor Kangxi, the Empress Dowager, Consort Tong, Consort Niohuru, Suo'etu, Consort Hui, Consort Rong, Consort De, and Consort Yi...
Ha! A small temple with a big demonic wind!
Every day, after eating and drinking her fill, Shirley would take a stroll and then get together with Princess Gaowa of Xianfu Palace.
She, on the other hand, lives a peaceful and quiet life.
On the other side, Emperor Kangxi hesitated for a long time before finally letting the beautiful young eunuch serve him.
Emperor Kangxi felt a surge of excitement, both physically and mentally, that he hadn't experienced in a long time.
Liang Jiugong knew Kangxi well, and the eunuchs who replaced him in the Qianqing Palace were all incredibly handsome.
The Empress Dowager was unaware of this and assumed that the Emperor was too busy with state affairs to visit the inner palace.
Emperor Kangxi cursed himself every day, yet he couldn't help it!
One day at the horse farm, he set his sights on the young, handsome, and exceptionally talented Nalan Rongruo!
Nalan Rongruo was unaware of this, only believing that the Emperor appreciated him, describing him as a refined and gentle young man.
Feeling the presence of certain clamoring voices, Kangxi had to admit that he was finished.
But a new idea formed in my mind even faster.
For example: What he sets his sights on is his. Regardless of gender.
For example: The whole world belongs to him, let alone people?
For example: He is the emperor, why should he wrong himself?
For example: He has so many children, that's enough!
Having prepared himself mentally, Kangxi invited Nalan Rongruo to stay for drinks on a dark and windy night.
One day, while Shirley was strolling in the Imperial Garden, she saw Emperor Kangxi and Nalan Rongruo arguing.
Shirley asked Mei to pick some chrysanthemums.
Mei left, not long after!
The news arrived.
Mei'er was punished for seducing the emperor and was beaten to death.
Emperor Kangxi confined Xue Li to her feet.
Sherry fainted in shock. After being examined by the imperial physician, it was revealed that Sherry was pregnant.
Emperor Kangxi was pleased and, as was customary, bestowed a reward upon him!
The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager also bestowed great honors upon them.
The imperial edict ordering confinement suddenly became relevant.
Of course, Sherry is so well-behaved.
She stayed in the Chuxiu Palace to rest and prepare for childbirth!
Shen Hun observed the various methods employed by the concubines.
Some play the piano at midnight, some row boats on the stream, some dance in the garden, and some sing softly.
They were all so beautiful and dazzling!
Kangxi remained unmoved.
Unsurprisingly, the young concubines became a laughing stock, but soon, another group of new women followed the same path.
Only the ladies and concubines in the palace still maintained some semblance of decorum.
After all, they don't really serve the emperor anymore.
When Emperor Kangxi arrived, he also dined with him.
The young concubines were the ones who couldn't contain themselves.
The Empress Dowager did inquire about it indirectly, but Kangxi only said that he was busy with state affairs!
Sherry ignored all that and wrote her erotic novels every day.
There's no way to print and sell them; after all, she has a lot of enemies around her.
No matter what you're doing, you can't avoid the path of the Hesheli Palace.
So, how about giving it a try?
Would Emperor Kangxi be furious if he found out?!
Before Sherry could even come to a conclusion, the imperial court and the harem were in an uproar.
If you walk by the river often enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet!
The news of homosexuality has still spread.
Many of the concubines stopped vying for the emperor's favor and became as quiet as chickens.
The Empress Dowager was so shocked that she fainted. After waking up, she began to purge the inner palace.
As Emperor Kangxi served the Empress Dowager, he felt both uneasy and ashamed.
Looking at Kangxi's expression, the Empress Dowager closed her eyes slightly wearily.
"Xuan Ye, you must prioritize the affairs of the state! I have already suppressed those rumors! Do not let anyone take advantage of the situation!"
"...Yes! Your grandson has troubled Grandmother again!" Kangxi paused and responded softly.
The Empress Dowager didn't ask, and Emperor Kangxi didn't say anything either.
Emperor Kangxi walked along the palace road with mixed feelings.
The Empress Dowager in Cining Palace sighed softly.
"Princess, perhaps some people are spreading rumors to overthrow the court! Don't worry!"
Sumalagu supported the Empress Dowager, looking at her with some concern.
"...Ah! I hope so!" The Empress Dowager wanted to say something, but swallowed it back down.
Both master and servant understood that some things, once done, will inevitably leave a trace.
Not to mention the beautiful eunuchs, even the guards in the Qianqing Palace were replaced one after another.
They have very different styles and handsome faces!
What's more, what about the actions of some scheming officials?
The master and servant walked silently, each lost in their own thoughts as they watched the sunset.
And so, the palace fell into an eerie silence.
The concubines were no longer as fierce.
On September 28th of the same year, Emperor Kangxi embarked on his first southern tour.
Sherry was chatting with Gao Wa while holding her belly!
Gao Wa initially thought that Xue Li was a bit too outgoing, but after spending more time with her, she realized that Xue Li was quite familiar with people.
Gao Wa thought Shirley was quite interesting.
Unlike the concubines in the palace, Shirley looks quiet, but she loves to tease her, telling the lame jokes with the calmest face.
After a while, Sherry started eating Gao Wa's lamb skewers again.
And so the year passed.
On the 26th day of the second month of the 24th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign (1685), Consort Tong gave birth to a daughter.
In early March, Sydney gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl!
Emperor Kangxi was overjoyed, and the Empress Dowager also perked up immediately.
