Chapter 78 Drunk
After returning to Qingxi Book House, Yuying's sleepiness disappeared, so she took Qingtao and Luchen to Qingxi Book House to drink again.
When Kangxi came back, Yuying was already drunk and confused. But she was unwilling to stay still and insisted on finding Kangxi, leaving Luchen and Qingtao at a loss as to what to do.
Seeing Kangxi finally appear, Yuying rushed over and said, "Your Majesty, you are finally back!"
Kangxi hurriedly took it, smelled the alcohol on Yuying, and asked, "How did you take care of Concubine Jin? Why did you let her drink so much?"
Lu Chen and Qing Tao on the side hurriedly knelt down and apologized.
"I am guilty, but I will punish you, Your Majesty."
Before Kangxi could say anything, Yuying was unhappy, "What...what are you doing? Hurry up and get up."
He slapped Kangxi on the chest again, "And you, why are you so fierce? I wanted to drink on my own, why are you blaming them?"
"They can't stop me." Yuying looked proud.
Kangxi didn't bother with the drunkards and waved his hand to let them go.
He led Yuying to sit on the edge of the bed and used his hands to brush away the scattered hair on Yuying's face due to her rough movements.
"Aying is looking for me?"
As soon as Kangxi finished speaking, Yuying nodded impatiently.
Seeing her like this, Kangxi felt soft in his heart and spoke in a gentler voice, "Since you are looking for me, why don't you go to the Nine Classics and Three Affairs Hall to call me?"
"No...it's not appropriate." Yuying shook her head and suddenly fell on the bed, scaring Kangxi so much.
Seeing her turn over and reaching out to feel something under the pillow, Kangxi did not rush to pull her up.
Seeing her groping stopped, she took out something that looked like a sachet from under the pillow the next second. With a surprised cry of "Found it!", she handed the sachet to Kangxi.
Why do you say it seems?
Because have you ever seen a scent bag with sharp edges and a crooked mouth? To call it a scent bag is a compliment.
Kangxi looked disdainful and was reluctant to take it.
"Your Majesty?" Yuying tilted her head, questioningly, and handed the sachet forward again, "Why don't you take it? This is the sachet I made for you myself!"
It’s actually a sachet?
There was a flash of disbelief in Kangxi's eyes.
He took it and lowered his head to examine the small sachet in his hand. Let's not talk about the shape first, just look at the golden dragon pattern embroidered on it.
Who could embroider a golden dragon that looked short and stocky? Not only that, but the big head also had a pair of even bigger eyes, which made Kangxi feel awkward no matter how he looked at it.
Thinking of how he had said to Yuying that day in order to coax her into embroidering a sachet that he would not dislike any style, Kangxi felt a headache.
But Yuying still blinked and stared at him, "How is it? Your Majesty, do you like it?"
Kangxi said with difficulty: "Aying is indeed not good at embroidery. Let the palace embroiderers do it in the future." He has so many embroiderers in the palace, they should be able to play a role, right? It's all his fault that he was so mean and insisted that she embroider it herself.
Now it’s too late to save face.
Yuying didn't feel frustrated when she heard Kangxi's words. Instead, she nodded seriously and said, "Your Majesty is right."
"Then your Majesty, please quickly put away the sachet! You can wear it tomorrow!"
Yuying did not forget what Kangxi had said before, and insisted that Kangxi wear it the next day.
Kangxi hesitated, "I know."
After getting Kangxi's affirmative answer, Yuying no longer obsessed with the sachet.
After much persuasion, Kangxi finally coaxed the person to sleep.
After tucking in the quilt for Yuying, Kangxi stood up and asked someone to bring water for him to bathe.
When Kangxi finished washing up, he lay down beside Yuying. Yuying was already fast asleep, not knowing that there was someone beside her.
Kangxi looked at her for a while before lying down.
As for the sachet? Kangxi didn't want to see it for the time being, so he stuffed it back under his pillow.
I hope Yuying will have forgotten about this by tomorrow.
A good night's sleep.
The next day, Yuying woke up feeling dizzy.
She sat on the bed, shook her head, and called out, "Qing Tao! Lu Chen! Where are you?"
The two who heard the noise hurried into the inner room from outside the yard. Kangxi had specifically instructed them this morning to go to the small kitchen to warm up a pot of sobering soup to prevent Yuying from having a headache after getting up.
The two of them had just returned from the kitchenette.
Seeing Yuying shaking her head, Lu Chen said, "My dear, do you have a headache?"
"A little bit."
"Then I'll go and bring the sobering soup." Qingtao heard that Yuying had a headache and hurried out.
"Then my young master, let me help you get up first."
Yuying nodded, closed her eyes and let Luchen do what he wanted.
Thinking back to when she first wore this, when Qingtao wanted to change her clothes, she was so scared that she quickly crawled to the corner of the bed and hurriedly refused Qingtao's help. She was not as calm as she is now.
The feudal society where people have everything they want and nothing is too much is sure to corrupt people's hearts.
Yuying sighed sincerely.
When Qingtao brought the sobering soup, Yuying drank it with a frown.
"My Lord, what shall we do today?"
Qingtao packed up the bowls and asked the eunuch at the door to take them back to the kitchen, then began to ask.
Yuying lowered her head in deep thought. She couldn't seem to think of any way to kill time, and she and Qingtao were both having a headache.
Seeing this, Lu Chen suggested, "The emperor took care of me last night. Why don't you prepare some food to see the emperor?"
Yuying thought about it and decided. Although she had no memory of what she did when she was drunk, she heard Luchen say that Kangxi took care of her all night, which was probably the first time for Kangxi.
Yuying carried the basket and arrived at the back of the Nine Classics and Three Affairs.
Liang Jiugong stood at the door with a serious look on his face. Seeing that it was Yuying who came, he quickly stepped forward and saluted, "My lady, you are here."
"Why is Eunuch Liang guarding outside the door?"
"My lady, you don't know," Liang Jiugong said with an apologetic smile, "Just now, a letter came from the palace. After reading the letter, the emperor drove me out. I saw that the emperor's face was not very good. I am afraid it is not convenient for me to see you now."
After hearing Liang Jiugong's words, if it were in the past, Yuying would have definitely turned around and returned, not wanting to offend Kangxi. But today, Yuying hesitated for a moment and spoke again: "How about Eunuch Liang tell the emperor that if he doesn't want to see me, I will go back."
"My lady..." Seeing that Liang Jiugong said this and was unable to get Yuying to return home, Qingtao spoke anxiously.
"It's okay, Qingtao, I'm just asking." Yuying turned around to comfort Qingtao.
Liang Jiugong looked embarrassed, but thinking of all the special ways Kangxi had treated Yuying in the past, he decided to give it a try, "Then please wait a moment, young lady."
Liang Jiugong pushed the door open and went in.
Kangxi sat at the desk with a dejected look on his face. He looked up when he heard the noise, and said dangerously, "Didn't I tell you to leave? Why are you coming in again?"
Liang Jiugong quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, it is Concubine Jin who wants to see you."
Kangxi's expression brightened. "Why is she here? Didn't you tell her that I don't see anyone?"
"Your Majesty, I have said it. But...but Concubine Jin insisted that I pass it on."
Kangxi rubbed his brows and said, "Let her in."
