Sherry would go out for trips every few days, and Kangxi didn't say anything when he found out. They were both quite happy and didn't want to leave.
Lying on the small boat at night, looking at the stars, Sydney felt as if the stars were within reach!
Sherry sat up and looked at the shimmering water and the reflections of the stars.
I couldn't resist reaching out to play in the water!
Suddenly, an arm wrapped around her waist!
"Sister~" The voice was low and lingering, and his hot lips gently sniffed along her earlobe.
Shirley was dressed casually at night, without her hair styled or makeup done. The way she played in the water made her seem like a fairy suddenly appearing in a storybook.
"Sister~" Sherry was pulled back and nestled in a fragrant embrace.
"Little brat~" Sherry played with the man's Adam's apple and then gently stroked the beauty mark under his eye!
Hmm, how many tears will this man shed for her in his lifetime?!
Sherry was lost in her own thoughts when she suddenly realized...
A mirage suddenly and slowly rises from the calm, still water.
A tall tower can be vaguely seen standing proudly.
Sherry vaguely felt a kind of intense heat.
Sherry met the gaze from above, which seemed to be fixed on its prey like a wild beast.
I suddenly realized that men are creatures driven by desire.
Their inherent flaws are innate.
They fawn over the strong, hoping to be dragged into the mud and replaced, while also bullying the weak to satisfy their tyrannical and controlling instincts.
This usually gentle and considerate man becomes all-powerful at times like this!
He longed to see the other person scream fiercely, beg for mercy, or break down in tears because of him...
Those lips were soft and sweet, like some kind of addictive gummy candy.
Sherry's jaw couldn't close properly, and saliva slowly spilled out.
This alluring situation makes men feel like firewood that has been drying out for a long time, and they can't stop until the firewood is completely burned!
The small boat rocked and swayed anxiously for a long time.
At the same time, Ning Chukuo began to arrange for people to gradually occupy unclaimed land.
While we're at it, let's recruit some uncultured savages!
Then he assigned his trusted confidants to oversee mining, weapon manufacturing, farming, and canal construction...
Chengze took the opportunity to donate smallpox vaccine!
Therefore, Emperor Kangxi relied on him even more!
Chengzhen followed his brother around, running errands and spending his free time running entertainment venues.
The "male best friend" has become an instant hit as soon as it appeared, a paradise for women!
Of course, Chengzhen means sitting upright and sitting properly.
He just felt that men liked to frequent brothels and pleasure houses when they had nothing to do, let alone male-male brothels.
So he simply asked his older brother, sister, and mother, and decided to take a different approach.
Initially, it was just for women to maintain their health, play, relax, or compete!
Of course, there are also men of all different styles serving you!
Some court officials were outraged and impeached Chengzhen, and of course, Yinzhi was also very vocal in his criticism.
After all, once Chengzhen's wedding enters the imperial court, his own brother, born of the same mother, will be a real headache for others.
Emperor Kangxi was also unwilling to disrupt the current balance!
So it was just a minor punishment to serve as a warning!
Chengzhen immediately called out "Mother" with tears in his eyes, and Kangxi felt inexplicably guilty.
They didn't punish him further, but just scolded him a few times and made him reflect on his actions!
He instructed Chengze to teach his younger siblings well!
As the two brothers exited the Qianqing Palace, they ran into Suo'etu!
Chengze had an air of nobility and refined elegance!
Suo'etu appears humble, but his small eyes dart around quickly.
“Brother, I’m afraid the Hesheli clan wants a second crown prince!” Chengzhen recalled the soup that Chuxiu Palace had sent to the emperor before he arrived.
"Ha! Let him be! Hongxuan missed you when we dined at the Prince's residence today." Chengze smiled with narrowed eyes, not taking it seriously.
"Okay, let's invite An Qi!" Cheng Zhen was very happy.
With their mother gone, their older brother is their pillar of support!
Changchun Garden was completed in the 26th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign (1687).
The concubines of Xianfu Palace, the Empress Dowager, and the Grand Empress Dowager all went to Changchun Garden to escape the summer heat.
As Kangxi gazed upon the pleasant scenery, he was reminded of Shirley, a memory he hadn't had in a long time.
After all, she was his female tutor!
However, Kangxi was inexplicably angry again when he remembered how his cousin had taken care of the eldest princess.
His cousin indeed didn't miss him as much anymore.
Even the princes are now considered dispensable.
Kangxi was both happy and unwilling, after all, he had seen how much his cousin loved him.
That's fine then!
Even the Consort Xian, far away in Jiangnan, was not at peace.
If the letters Consort Xian sent him were all filled with rude and infuriating words...
However, the letter from Consort Xian to Imperial Noble Consort was different; it contained her notebook and even some short poems she had written.
Every time he saw the twins looking longingly at their brothers kissing them and their mother, he felt a pang of sadness.
It's not that he didn't think of bringing the person back!
But Sherry's actions still infuriated him!
If he hadn't returned to the capital so early, his current concubine might not even know who she'd be close to!
Kangxi grew angrier the more he thought about it, just then he heard Chengzhen arrive.
"Your son greets Father Emperor!" Chengzhen smiled broadly.
"Get up!" Kangxi didn't say anything; even a smiling face won't be slapped.
"Father, your son misses Mother!" Chengzhen went around and hugged his arm, acting coquettishly.
Kangxi paused, vaguely recalling Xue Li, who had been clinging to him and acting spoiled.
"I miss your mother too!"
Kangxi muttered to himself.
"Then, son, go and fetch your mother back to the palace?" Chengzhen glanced cautiously at the memorial on the table, then looked eager.
Emperor Kangxi put down his pen and stared at him intently: "Very well! Changchun Garden will also be a place for your mother to recuperate!"
And so, the matter was settled!
Cheng Zhen went south to pick up Sydney, taking with him various weapons and ammunition.
Ning Chuge sent a message saying he would be back at the end of the year!
After all, the Empress Dowager's health was deteriorating, and Ning Chukuo genuinely wanted to be close to her.
For more than two years, Sherry arranged for her aunt and maid to open shops for her to earn money.
Those promoted are all new favorites!
In other words, whatever she wanted Kangxi to know, Kangxi could only know.
Shirley also inquired about Chengzhen's wife, and then learned that Chengze had been involved.
Bao Cheng has no hope and has been recuperating for many years.
The Hesheli family later placed all their hopes on Consort Chuxiu, but Emperor Kangxi remained indifferent to her.
The Hesheli family even hoped for a direct grandson and subtly mentioned it to the emperor.
Unfortunately, Chengze also raised his hand to vote. After all, Baocheng and Chengzhen were the same age, and with their mother gone, it would be a troublesome task for Emperor Kangxi.
Suo'etu grew anxious and secretly encouraged Baocheng.
Not only did Chengzhen jump around with her, but there was also Anqi, her half-sister.
Emperor Kangxi was unwilling for the auspicious omen of the Qing Dynasty to be married off to Mongolia, and, annoyed and helpless, he suppressed the matter.
It was already autumn when Shirley returned to the palace.
Yikun Palace had long been cleaned up and made spotless!
