Chapter 28 Title and First Snow
Hearing this, Yuying's eyes lit up, and then suddenly she seemed to remember something and frowned slightly.
[Please don’t be Liang, I don’t want to be Liang’s concubine.]
Kangxi was puzzled. Who was this Liang Fei? Was she also his concubine? Why didn't she want to be one? However, this was not the title he had given her. Kangxi believed that the future could change, and he was not as excited about the news that Yuying had accidentally revealed as he was at the beginning.
"How about the word 'Jin'?" Kangxi told Yuying straightforwardly without beating around the bush.
[Jin? Which Jin? Phew~ Fortunately it’s not Liang, I don’t want to compromise the position of Concubine Liang!]
"May I ask your Majesty, which character is this?"
Yuying breathed a sigh of relief and enthusiastically discussed with Kangxi what the word was.
"It's the character 'Jin' as in 'Huai Jin Wu Yu'. What do you think, my beloved?" Kangxi looked at Yuying, waiting for her reply.
Yuying thought about it. Concubine Jin? That sounds good.
"Thank you, Your Majesty! I think this word is great!"
After getting a nice title, Yuying did not stay in the Qianqing Palace for long. She returned to Changchun Palace happily, not caring how many times Kangxi scolded her behind her back.
Watching Yuying walking away, Kangxi's eyes became deep.
Although giving her the title was a spur-of-the-moment idea, the word was not given casually. "Jin" means the vessel of Jin Yu, and it also means "cautious". She is an inestimable treasure of the Qing Dynasty, and she is also by his side to remind him to be cautious in everything.
The news that Kangxi vomited blood and fainted and that Yuying had met the prince in the Palace of Heavenly Purity were concealed. The former was to avoid causing unrest in the court, and the latter, although Kangxi wanted Yuying to get closer to the prince, it was not a good time. If the harem knew about it, Hesheli would definitely be the first to disagree. After all, it made no sense for the prince to get close to Xipin, who was related to him, and get close to a lowly noble lady? It was hard not to doubt the emperor's intentions.
But the news that Concubine Wei had become Concubine Jin spread into the palaces like weeds.
After Yuying left, Kangxi locked himself in the study and stayed there for a long time. It was late at night, and Liang Jiugong had to remind Kangxi to rest before he opened the door and came out.
The second day.
The first snow fell since the beginning of winter.
Overnight, the Forbidden City changed its appearance. It was covered in silver and looked extremely beautiful.
Yuying woke up early in the morning and was very excited to see the yard covered with snow.
In modern times, Yuying has seen the Forbidden City after snow on major video software countless times. They all say that the Forbidden City becomes the Forbidden City after snow.
In the past, Yuying had no chance to see the Forbidden City after the snow, but now she can see the real Forbidden City.
Qingtao dressed up Yuying and put on a cloak. Yuying couldn't wait to go out for a walk.
"Qingtao! Come on, let's go for a walk."
"My young lady, it just snowed and the palace roads haven't been cleared yet. If you go out now, be sure not to get your shoes and socks wet." Qing Tao disagreed. Her young lady was weak to begin with, and what would happen if she caught a cold?
After hearing Qingtao's words, Yuying hesitated for a while.
But the opportunity was rare, and Yuying didn't want to miss it. "Qingtao, let's go out and play, please, you see, it's rare for me to want to go out for a walk, you can't bear that I have to stay in Changchun Palace every day, right?" Yuying looked pitiful, pulling Qingtao's sleeve, trying to soften her heart.
Qing Tao glanced at Yu Ying awkwardly, but finally agreed, "Then my lady, let's make a deal that you can't run too far."
"Great! Qingtao, let's go!"
Yuying went out with Qingtao and Pei'er.
Walking along the palace road, Yuying and her group didn't see many people walking on the road except the eunuch sweeping the snow.
And this was exactly what Yuying wanted.
Yuying planned to take a stroll in the Imperial Garden. After being here for so long, she always kept her distance from the Imperial Garden, a place where palace fighting incidents were prone to occur.
Seeing that it was snowing today, no one would want to go out in the snow, so Yuying dared to go over and take a look. It was just the right time to go and see if the plum blossoms in the imperial garden had bloomed.
The only good thing about traveling back to the Qing Dynasty is that there is plenty of time. If it were in modern times, Yuying would never have the opportunity to walk in the snow to look for plum blossoms.
I don’t know how long I walked before I reached the Imperial Garden.
As Yuying expected, the Imperial Garden was empty except for the bare branches.
Yuying walked in with confidence.
"My lady, the scenery is bleak in winter, what are we doing in the Imperial Garden?" Qingtao asked in confusion.
"I came to see the plum blossoms. Besides, when all the flowers in the imperial garden are in full bloom, your young lady doesn't dare to come." Yuying curled her lips.
"Qingtao, where is the plum garden? Why can't I see it?"
"My lady, we have to move forward. When I went to collect my monthly salary a few days ago, I ran into Peihuan from Zhongcui Palace. She said that the plum blossoms in the imperial garden were in full bloom." Qingtao led the way in front, and Yuying held Pei'er's hand and walked slowly forward.
Probably because it was snowing, the eunuchs in the palace thought that no one would come to the long imperial garden, so the eunuchs who were sweeping the snow had no time to clear the road, making it particularly difficult to walk on.
Yuying looked at Qingtao in front of her, and couldn't help laughing when she heard the news she had heard from other people.
Yes, after three years of getting along, Yuying finally understood why her original father had gone to such great lengths to send Qingtao to her.
To survive in the harem, it is essential to have a pair of sensitive ears. And Qingtao was sent by the original body's father to serve as the original body's "ears".
Qingtao is a community cow. There are always big and small things happening in the palace every day. The ones who are most informed are the eunuchs who run around the palace every day. Yuying didn't know how Qingtao got into this group of eunuchs. Anyway, one day Qingtao secretly told her that Concubine Xi had a stomachache yesterday and went to the toilet four or five times in one night. Yuying was shocked.
At that time I thought Qingtao had some special hobbies, but later I found out that she was just a gossiper. She could find out everything from who stole the monthly wages of the maids who cleaned the Cining Palace to which prince was beaten by his own mother.
There is nothing wrong with loving to listen to gossip, everyone loves to listen to it. For a long time, Yuying used the gossip that Qingtao heard from various sources as a joke to kill time. But for being able to develop her love of listening to gossip into a specialty, Yuying didn't know whether to praise Qingtao for her ability or to praise her original father for his insight.
But after all, Qingtao did her no harm.
After a while, before she saw the plum blossoms, Yuying smelled the unique cool fragrance of plum blossoms in the cold wind.
finally.
Flowers bloom above my head, visible in the cold of ice and snow.
Yuying looked at the plum blossoms that were blooming alone in the cold weather in front of her and felt that she had come to the right place.
It’s really beautiful.
The red plum blossoms are proud, while the white plum blossoms are noble. The two are clearly different, yet they complement each other.
Yuying was immersed in this rare winter scenery for a moment.
