Chapter 180 Confession
system?
Yuying felt a little dissatisfied. She had read a lot of time-travel stories with built-in systems, so she understood what Kangxi said as soon as he said it.
only……
Yuying looked Kangxi up and down with a critical eye. She felt indignant. According to the general routine, shouldn't this system be given to her?
"So it was you, Your Majesty, who stole my system!"
That’s what she said!
How could she travel through time without a golden finger?
Yuying had an angry look on her face. It was all Kangxi’s fault!
bump--
Kangxi felt like a huge pot had been dropped on his head, and he saw stars. Kangxi thought about it and still couldn't understand how Yuying came to this conclusion.
Kangxi was so upset that he asked, "Is this what Ah Ying cares about?"
Yuying sat in Kangxi's arms, holding Kangxi's braids, and nodded, "If I could read minds..."
Yuying snorted twice, then suddenly realized what was happening and said sternly, "Don't change the subject. Keep talking. Don't hide anything from the beginning to the end."
"Okay, then Aying, don't interrupt me again."
Yuying pinched the soft flesh on Kangxi's waist and glared at him.
Kangxi hugged Yuying with one hand, and with the other hand, he clenched his fist, put it to his lips, and chuckled.
"I was staying alone in the Palace of Heavenly Purity at the time, and the system appeared suddenly." Kangxi still has lingering fears when he recalled the situation at that time.
He was vague about what the system said, saying that he had searched all over the previous dynasty but had not been able to find the "soul from another world" that the system mentioned.
Speaking of this, Kangxi said to Yuying guiltily: "I didn't forget Aying on purpose at that time."
"Hmm?" Yuying didn't understand Kangxi's train of thought.
Seeing that Yuying seemed to have forgotten, Kangxi felt disappointed that Yuying had never taken him to heart, so she didn't care about the fact that he had forgotten her in the harem at that time.
"It was not until Little Thirteen was born that I realized the person I had been looking for for so long was right under my nose."
Kangxi smiled faintly when he mentioned this, and joked, "Aying seemed to be waiting for Xiao Shisan to take care of you in your old age at that time."
Yuying seemed to have returned to the scene of Concubine Zhang Jia giving birth as Kangxi recalled, "It's because Your Majesty is unreliable."
"Aying knew everything that happened afterwards. It was my fault. I shouldn't have kept it from Aying, and I shouldn't have avoided her after she found out."
Kangxi bowed his head and admitted his mistake to Yuying.
Yuying was stunned. Actually, she didn't seem angry. Her intention was not to cause trouble for Kangxi. She was just a little annoyed that Kangxi had been avoiding her.
Yuying raised her head and looked at Kangxi.
To be fair, if she really had the ability to read minds, she would keep it a secret and not tell anyone else, let alone the person whose mind was read.
Moreover, Kangxi had given her everything he asked for over the years. She seemed unable to put on a stern face and get angry now.
Moreover, perhaps Kangxi did not deliberately hide it from her later, which allowed her to discover it.
"I wasn't angry in the first place." Yuying couldn't help but mutter.
Kangxi's heart softened, "Yes, I was judging others by my own standards. Ah Ying is not such a stingy person."
"Then Ah Ying..."
Kangxi changed the subject, not understanding why Yuying suddenly didn't want to pretend to be ignorant even though she knew the truth.
"Actually, if you want to know something, you can ask me directly, instead of beating around the bush and still not getting to the point." Yuying found it funny when she thought of Kangxi's test some time ago.
She stood up and used her hands to twist Kangxi's head so that he had to look into her eyes. She said softly, "This place is half my home. I hope it will get better and better."
Unexpectedly, just one sentence like this made Kangxi's eyes red.
He didn't know whether he should be glad that Yuying treated his Qing Dynasty as her home, or because Yuying, like him, wanted to make Qing Dynasty a better place.
"I haven't cried yet, Your Majesty, please don't shed tears." Yuying said helplessly, "Okay, let's turn the page. What I thought in my heart is what I wanted to tell you."
"Yes, I will listen to Aying."
Kangxi seemed to be still immersed in his emotions, and his whole body was in a daze.
Yuying couldn't help but get out of Kangxi's arms, grabbed his arm and shook it, "Your Majesty, please come back to your senses. You must remember what I am going to say next."
Kangxi felt his arms were empty, and he subconsciously wanted to grab Yuying back, but Yuying dodged him nimbly.
He then straightened his mind and asked, "What did Ah Ying want to say?"
So Yuying spoke slowly. She had previously told Kangxi about the nine princes' fight for the throne and Yinzhen's eventual ascension to the throne.
Now she is going to talk about later events, including Qianlong, Jiaqing, Daoguang, Xianfeng, Tongzhi, Guangxu, Puyi, and finally Cixi.
The further they talked, the more carefully Yuying observed Kangxi's expression, fearing that he would accidentally take his anger out on her.
Thinking of this, Yuying had to move further away from Kangxi to avoid being affected.
Noticing Yuying's little action, Kangxi laughed, and the thick atmosphere finally dissipated a little. "What is Ah Ying doing? Could it be that in Ah Ying's mind, I am such an unreasonable person?"
Yuying wanted to nod, after all, Kangxi was the one who knew how to vent his anger on others. But looking at Kangxi's increasingly dangerous eyes, Yuying's head froze. She could only shake her head.
"Then why don't you sit closer, Ah Ying?"
Yuying reluctantly moved back. She looked at Kangxi and asked curiously, "Aren't you angry after hearing this?"
"Of course I'm angry." He had already been angry before, "But, none of this will happen now, right?"
"I have Aying who is always by my side." Kangxi's eyes were burning and his tone was full of determination.
"Of course. You are blessed to have me." Yuying turned her head slightly, avoiding Kangxi's sight, and responded softly.
Kangxi was a little disappointed, but he quickly hid this disappointment. He cheered up again and held Yuying's hand. "Aying, do you want to be the queen?"
Kangxi's question was so abrupt that Yuying was momentarily distracted. Then, she tried to pull her hand back, but Kangxi held it tightly, as if he would not let go unless she answered.
Perhaps the last of his worries were gone, Kangxi was a little sentimental today. Or perhaps Yuying had always been evasive about his feelings, which made Kangxi anxious, so he wanted her to get closer to him.
"Only when Ah Ying becomes the queen can she stand beside me more legitimately, right?"
Kangxi tried to sell Yuying the various benefits of being a queen, but Yuying remained silent, and Kangxi's heart sank gradually.
"Forget it. My three previous queens did not have long lives. People in and out of the palace say that I am a wife-killer. Compared to Aying becoming my queen, I still hope that Aying can stay by my side for a long time."
Kangxi looked straight ahead and just let the matter go indifferently, but it was unknown what he was thinking in his heart.
"Aying, please tell me where you live." He was really curious about what kind of world could produce a beautiful person like Yuying.
Yuying perked up when she heard that Kangxi wanted to hear about modern things. She had been holding these things in her heart, and now that Kangxi asked about them, she couldn't wait to give Kangxi a little shock.
"Where we are, there is no emperor anymore. Even the Forbidden City is deserted. You still need to buy a ticket to go in and have fun."
As expected, Yuying saw Kangxi's expression change. She hid aside and laughed, "Oh, so now I can live in the Forbidden City for free, which is also a good deal for me."
"Since Aying said so, then we will live in the Forbidden City next year and not come to the garden." Kangxi threatened Yuying.
"Okay, okay, I'm wrong, that's not enough. The Forbidden City is too small." Yuying was telling the truth. "Where we are, we can go wherever we want. We have cars, high-speed trains, and airplanes. I was still in Beijing this morning, but I might be thousands of miles away in the afternoon."
Kangxi became interested in the means of transportation that Yuying mentioned, and Yuying finally explained to him what these things looked like.
"What a pity that our Qing Dynasty cannot produce such a magical weapon now." Kangxi smacked his lips and came to this conclusion.
Yuying looked at Kangxi with a frown on her face. He had just learned to crawl, but he was already thinking about flying. It was too wishful thinking. Yuying had to speak out to break his beautiful dream, "Your Majesty, you haven't even built a steam engine yet, and you're already thinking about this."
"Hmm? What is this steam engine?" Kangxi grasped the key point, "Can the Qing Dynasty build this?"
hiss--
Kangxi stumped Yuying with his question: Can the Qing Dynasty build a steam engine?
"Well...if you know the principle, it should be possible." Yuying said embarrassedly.
Kangxi's eyes lit up, "Oh, does Aying know?!"
"Let me think about it, let me think about it..."
Knock knock——
There was a knock on the door.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, do you need the meal served?" It was Qingdai's voice.
Kangxi and Yuying then looked at the scenery outside the window together. It turned out that the sky had become completely dark without them knowing when.
"Your Majesty, how about we have our meal first? I'll tell you the rest slowly." Yuying asked tentatively.
"Okay, serve the meal." Kangxi agreed. Seeing Yuying's bitter face, he comforted her, "It's okay if Aying can't remember. My Qing Dynasty is full of talented people. There is no need to put pressure on Aying alone."
Yuying took this to heart, and she was not one to waste time. At this moment, the food in front of her was more important.
And perhaps because she and Kangxi had talked it out completely, the two of them now get along more naturally.
