Sherry's voice was low and husky, and she spoke with a hint of a smile.
Consort Tong was both ashamed and angry at the sight.
"I can't compare to my sister's beauty and charm!" Consort Tong replied curtly.
Sherry's smile became even brighter.
"You're so annoying, sister, you're embarrassing me!"
Sherry herself didn't notice the complicated expressions on the faces of the concubines around her.
Consort Tong was utterly speechless at this moment, but some of the things she said were beneath her dignity.
She couldn't help but glare at Shirley with a huff.
Sherry smiled, her face flushed, clutching her handkerchief.
Consort Tong felt inexplicably flustered at this moment and glanced down at the seat below.
The expressions of those concubines were quite intriguing!
Consort Tong kept a straight face and didn't say anything.
After the Empress came out, she asked each of them a few questions, rewarded Sherry with some things, and then dismissed everyone.
The weather was freezing cold, and the Empress Dowager also fell ill.
So I didn't go to Cining Palace again.
Perhaps due to illness, the Empress specially arranged for everyone to pay their respects every ten days.
Before Sherry could react, Consort Tong had already hurriedly left with her entourage.
Sherry left in a different direction, somewhat resentful.
Consort Tong almost cried upon returning to the palace.
"Granny, did you see her? That vixen, she, she..."
Granny Fang's face was filled with indescribable emotions.
What could she say? She's lived a long life; she's seen what she should have seen and what she shouldn't have seen.
She dared not even think about it!
"You vixen! In broad daylight, you actually, you actually..."
Consort Tong lay on the couch again, whimpering softly.
The young palace maid and Granny Fang looked at each other in bewilderment.
"How about we stop talking to her from now on?" Granny Fang suggested after a long pause.
"Granny, do you think it's because she hasn't seen the Emperor in a long time... She wasn't like this before, her speech wasn't so abnormal!"
Consort Tong cried for a long time, her eyes were red.
Granny Fang's lips twitched for a long time before she swallowed her words.
It's more than just abnormal; before, he either didn't say anything at all, or when he did, it was always annoying, like a cannon...
Besides, what if her master didn't understand those things, and she insisted on bringing it up? The nights in the palace are long, and what if that person really had feelings for a woman? That would be a sin.
"Your Majesty, shall we decide whether to select a few people or wait a little longer?"
Granny Fang promptly changed the subject.
Consort Tong was no longer angry; she stroked her belly with a resentful expression!
"I've been in the palace for so long, why is there still no movement?"
"Your Majesty, perhaps it's just not meant to be!" a maidservant said timidly.
"Ah, what a coincidence! The family can't wait any longer!" Consort Tong's eyes revealed a weariness beyond her years.
She's willing to raise her cousin's child; if she can't give birth, it's because she's not good enough.
However, she didn't want to push her cousin into bed herself.
Emperor Kangxi would ask Liang Jiugong every day what was happening in the harem!
Hearing that Consort Xian had recovered from her illness, his face was filled with joy.
Seeing Liang Jiugong's hesitant expression, Kangxi thought something had happened!
"Tell me the truth, what exactly happened?" Kangxi asked impatiently.
"This is just my guess. I heard that today, Consort Xian was looking at Consort Tong..."
As Liang Jiugong spoke, he carefully observed Kangxi.
"What, is she angry with the Imperial Concubine?" Kangxi's face turned cold; he probably knew why.
After all, she was unhappy that the entire palace had been promoted without mentioning her.
But who could blame her for coming from a humble background?!
“No, it’s not…” Liang Jiugong’s expression became even more distorted.
Kangxi's brows furrowed tightly in an instant.
Liang Jiugong knelt down with a death wish: "I heard that Consort Xian made Consort Tong blush with embarrassment!"
After a while, you could hear a pin drop in the Qianqing Palace.
"What did you say?" Kangxi thought he had misheard. "Nonsense!"
"Yes!" Liang Jiugong hurriedly knelt down.
Kangxi said nothing more, but the messy handwriting reminded him of his inner turmoil.
So, is it that Consort Xian is too flirtatious, or is it that my cousin's tastes are slightly different from ordinary people?
The more Kangxi thought about it, the angrier he became. He didn't even know who he was angry at.
That night, as expected, Kangxi went to Yikun Palace!
After not seeing each other for several months, the two of them felt inexplicably estranged.
Sherry's smile was soft and gentle, just like...
Kangxi held her and chatted casually.
Sherry nestled in his arms and slept soundly.
Of course, Sherry wasn't idle all day; instead, she started practicing her martial arts whenever she had free time.
Perhaps it was because of the old man's guidance that her cultivation progressed rapidly, and Shirley found herself unable to stop.
So the illness lasted a bit longer.
At the same time, Sydney planned to build a Buddhist shrine!
She now has a child and runs a shop, so she only needs to absorb some dragon energy occasionally.
So, Kangxi can go wherever he wants, as long as he doesn't interfere with her cultivation.
Kangxi didn't mind and held her as they slept.
But in the days that followed, Shirley couldn't escape it. After all, if you eat too many green apples, you'll eventually have to switch to ripe peaches.
Sherry didn't refuse either!
Consort Tong in Chengqian Palace, however, found it difficult to sleep peacefully every day.
Her family pressured her to have a child, and even hoped that she would use a surrogate mother.
Consort Tong intended to promote Lady Daijia and Lady Wanliuha.
She did meet Wuya, but Wuya was more intelligent than the others.
Consort Tong did not want to raise a tiger that would become a threat, so she simply dismissed them!
However, Lady Uya still learned of Consort Tong's plans.
After all, the Bao Yi family had been operating for many years, and their influence was deeply entrenched.
So, after spending several days indulging in passionate lovemaking with Shirley, Kangxi was visiting his cousin when Uya climbed into his bed.
If Emperor Kangxi were interested, the matter would be settled.
