Chapter Twenty-Seven: An Unexpected Encounter with Emperor Kangxi



They were lost for several hours without finding Yonghe Palace.

Nan Yi looked at Qingyun, but she couldn't remember it. Time was hard to remember in ancient times. Anyway, she wandered around inside for a long time. At first, she was a little curious, but later she just wanted to find a place to rest as soon as possible.

Qingyun remained silent. "Your Majesty, I entered the palace at dawn and asked a palace maid to lead the way, but... she didn't seem to know the way either."

Qingyun was extremely embarrassed. Who would have thought that after all this time, she had found a newbie to lead the way? When she got back, Yiren would definitely laugh at her to death.

"What time is it now?" Kangxi raised his head and glanced at the sky.

"Your Majesty, it is already noon," Li Dequan replied, shaking his head inwardly. Both master and servant are incredibly stupid.

After hearing this, Emperor Kangxi sighed. "A foolish master with a foolish girl, why not just find a guard to lead the way?"

"Get up," Kangxi said gently. The two girls were quite pleasing to the eye. Getting up in the middle of the night, walking for half a day, and basking in the sun for half a day, they must have lost half their lives. Consort De was not a petty woman before.

Kangxi beckoned to his subordinate, "Li Dequan, convey my message: have someone escort Lady Tong back to her residence. There's no need for further greetings."

This girl has forgotten who she is. She's gotten a good deal and is still haggling over it. An unreadable emotion flashed in Kangxi's eyes.

"How miserable must the girl be in this secluded courtyard?" she said calmly. "Granted."

Kangxi immediately turned around and did not enter Yonghe Palace.

Li Dequan instructed someone to escort Consort Tong, and hurriedly followed the imperial carriage. He felt sorry for Consort De, who had lost more than she gained. He knew that one should be moderate in dealing with people, especially since she was his own daughter-in-law, and she even bore the surname Tong. The Emperor missed Empress Tong, so naturally he would bestow favors upon the Tong family's daughters.

Why can't Consort De understand this?
