Sherry, breathing softly, teased Kangxi.
She lay down halfway, the closed flower petals appearing and disappearing in the distance.
Shirley's fair fingers lightly brushed over the area.
Kangxi couldn't help but shudder, and then he saw Xue Li lick those fingers little by little.
Kangxi could no longer resist and eagerly covered her body with kisses and nibbles.
Sherry's eyes were glazed over, surrounded by mirrors.
A pair of fair and tender legs were wrapped around her like water snakes.
Emperor Kangxi stared intently at the scenery reflected in the mirror.
He then realized that every angle presented a different view, and the alluring demeanor made him unbearably thirsty!
He also ignored the commotion caused by the eunuchs from the Imperial Household Department outside.
The following day, Emperor Kangxi lavishly rewarded Xue Li with pears.
Many of them were banknotes.
Sherry looked at the gifts and instructed the small kitchen to prepare some nourishing food.
And they arranged for someone to invite Emperor Kangxi.
Emperor Kangxi's legs were actually a little sore, but he felt relieved thinking about the bright sunshine.
Then he left!
After the emperor and empress had finished their meal, Kangxi finally had time to catch up with Xue Li.
The two chatted idly for a while before Sherry remembered the important matter.
"Your Majesty, as the ancients said, 'Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime!' I am very happy that Your Majesty has given me money, but I have four children, and I need to save some money for them. Therefore, I am thinking of opening a shop!"
Sherry nestled in his arms, acting all sweet and affectionate.
Kangxi is not as paranoid as he was in his later years.
After all, the children are still young, and Sydney is known for its weak foundation.
She was also the only one who asked him for money.
Thinking about it this way, even Emperor Kangxi felt a pang of heartache.
He understood better than anyone why the noble ladies in the harem looked down on his beloved concubine.
Thinking about it this way, Kangxi felt even more sorry for Xue Li.
It's probably because I like someone, so I intentionally exaggerate all her good qualities.
Moreover, Emperor Kangxi was well-fed and satisfied yesterday, and felt happy and relaxed!
It's not because I love Sherry more!
So not only did he nod in agreement, but he also secretly gave Sherry several prime shops and estates.
Emperor Kangxi himself thought of the two pairs of twins, and felt that he should save some money for them.
He made a mental note of it, kissed Sherry again, and hugged the two babies before leaving.
"By the way, it's perfect timing. Your Majesty has arranged palace affairs for you, which will make it easier for you to send people out of the palace!"
Emperor Kangxi was worried that Xue Li might not understand, so he gave her a special reminder.
And they were thinking of arranging for some more people for Sherry.
Liang Jiugong, standing outside, raised his eyes in surprise, then lowered his head again.
After all, many things are unspoken rules, and no one dares to say them openly.
The other masters all had businesses, which were all supported by their families.
That's true, this guy has nothing!
"I will do my best! Actually, Sister Niohuru did quite well."
Sherry gets annoyed just thinking about palace affairs.
Emperor Kangxi couldn't help but laugh when he saw her pouting.
"Alright, it's time you became more sensible. From now on, you'll be in charge of teaching Ning Chuge and An Qi!"
As he spoke, Kangxi walked away with his hands behind his back.
Upon hearing the news, Consort Tong's face darkened immediately.
The Emperor didn't order much water in her palace, and he even dined with her today.
Consort Tong was so angry she wanted to curse, but she held back!
"How could I forget? Wasn't that woman the one who seduced the Emperor with her vixen-like figure?!"
After a while, Consort Tong was still unhappy, angrily waving her handkerchief and muttering curses under her breath.
The palace servants looked at each other, not daring to say a word.
"Ha! You lowly woman, what are you without children? You dare to compete with me?!"
Tong Fei remained immersed in her own world.
The head maid, Ruhua, couldn't hold back any longer: "Your Highness, walls have ears."
Consort Tong looked unconvinced, but didn't say anything.
However, these words still reached the ears of the Empress Dowager!
The Empress Dowager said nothing, but stared intently at Sumalagu.
Sumalagu nodded and withdrew.
Just as Kangxi guarded against the Mongols, she helped him guard against the Tong family in the same way.
After all, it's impossible for the next emperor to be a descendant of the Tong family!
I suspect the emperor understood this too!
Therefore, the Empress Dowager had a plan in mind!
And so, in the summer, Ma Jia became pregnant again.
Everyone in the harem was numb!
How come Ma Jiashi is so fertile?
Giving them one or two would be good too.
Li and Wang Jia hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they looked unwell, with resentment on their faces.
Heseri, the youngest, became a new favorite and enjoyed unparalleled popularity.
Consort Tong was keen to compete for power with Consort Niohuru, and occasionally she would also tease Xue Li.
"Oh dear, Consort Xian, perhaps you haven't studied household management? Will you have difficulty handling palace affairs?"
Sherry looked at her with a troubled expression and ignored her.
"Why isn't Consort Xian speaking? Does she look down on her younger sister?"
Sherry yawned lazily and turned her head.
Then, Consort Niohuru was seen holding a teacup, exuding an air of grandeur and majesty.
Consort Tong looked at Xue Li, her face conveying a few words: peony, lotus...
Hmm, she doesn't look like a mistress at all, unlike Consort Niohuru!
"Consort Tong is quite free? If you're too idle, I can make you busy right away!"
Sherry looked at her, who seemed utterly bored.
Which good person doesn't sleep and busy themselves with all this nonsense?
Sherry is filled with resentment right now!
“You…I…” Tong Fei hesitated, somewhat speechless.
Consort Niohuru suddenly lowered her head, and Shirley could see that her fingers holding the teacup were gripping it a little too tightly.
"What are you saying, Consort Xian? I just want to have a chat with you!"
"So you're still too idle. Aren't you supposed to be handling palace affairs? How come you have time to chat?"
