Kangxi was confused. When did he say that he would not let her come to the Qing Palace? If she didn't come, what fun would he have?
Even Liang Jiugong was confused. These past few days, Mu Sili had been staying at the Palace of Heavenly Purity, and Kangxi's tempers had decreased. How could she not come? If she didn't come, what would happen to them?
It has only been a few days since things got quiet, and he doesn't want to continue facing Kangxi's cold face. After all, he has had too many good days, and who would still want to live the kind of life that made people autistic before?
"What are you doing, young master? Why don't you come to the Qing Palace for no reason? Could it be that now that you've become a young master, you don't want to bother with me?"
Liang Jiugong looked a little aggrieved. He really didn't want to face Kangxi's cold eyes.
"That's not what I meant. Although I can't come to the Ganqing Palace, you can go to the Yonghe Palace to find me. I'm not an unkind person. How could I forget you?"
That's true, but they didn't dare go. Didn't you see that Kangxi's face was not good? If they made a mistake, they would be beaten.
"This... This servant suddenly remembered that the side halls of Yonghe Palace have not been inspected yet. I am afraid that my lady cannot move out today. Your Majesty, how about you let my lady stay for a few more days?
Rest assured, my lady. I will immediately take people to clean Yonghe Palace inside and out, and call in the imperial physician for a thorough inspection. I will definitely not allow any problems to arise in Yonghe Palace."
Kangxi looked at Liang Jiugong with satisfaction. He performed well today and deserved a reward. I believe Mu Sili would agree with him, right?
"I'm afraid this won't work. The Emperor doesn't want me to stay in the Palace of Heavenly Purity anymore. I'm not a shameless person, so how can I stay here with such a thick face?
If this gets out, I, the newly promoted concubine, will probably become the laughing stock of the entire harem. That doesn't matter. What I am worried about is that they will say that the emperor has poor taste.
If someone as ignorant as me could live in the Palace of Heavenly Purity for so long, others would surely follow suit. Wouldn't that cause chaos in the harem?"
Mu Sili spoke seriously, and if Kangxi didn't know that it was not the case at all, he would have believed her lies.
"When did I ever say I wouldn't let you live in the Palace of Heavenly Purity? Isn't it true that the Yonghe Palace has been renovated? Don't I want you to go and see it?
After all, this is the palace I carefully selected for you, and you will live there permanently in the future. If you don’t like it, I can ask someone to change it.
If I really didn't want you to stay in the Qianqing Palace, I wouldn't have let you stay there before. What you said just now really hurt my heart, and I am so sad.
Liang Jiugong, take your men to Yonghe Palace for a thorough inspection. If there are any problems, they can be resolved promptly. However, you should focus on the main hall. I have never considered letting her live in a side hall.
Liang Jiugong knew at a glance that Kangxi was going to change the place to communicate with Mu Sili. In that case, he could no longer stay here.
"Yes, I will take someone to check it out right away. Please wait a moment, my lady. I will notify you after I have checked it out."
As soon as Liang Jiugong closed the door, Kangxi pulled Mu Sili into his arms with a resentful look on his face.
"I am truly wronged. If I remember correctly, I have never set foot in the harem since I favored you that day. What you said just now really hurts my heart."
"How could Your Majesty speak of me like this? If Your Majesty liked me, you wouldn't be in such a hurry to send me away. After all, I have served in the Palace of Heavenly Purity for so long, can't I stay a little longer?"
"You can stay as long as you want, but I still say that when you have children, you will have to move back to Yonghe Palace, so I hope you can go and take a look.
If there's anything you don't like, it's a good time to change it now before we move."
"Your Majesty, do you really have no intention of sending me away? It seems that I have misunderstood Your Majesty. I feel deeply guilty. How about I go and take a look now?"
After saying this, Mu Sili was ready to slip away, but she was held in Kangxi's arms and couldn't escape after running for a long time.
"Oh! Seeing your stubborn attitude just now, I thought you wouldn't change your mind. I didn't expect you to change your mind in less than a quarter of an hour.
I think I must have neglected you recently, which is why you are so uneasy. Don't worry, I will take good care of you."
Mu Sili was pulled to the bed by Kangxi. She felt helpless. She didn't intend to commit adultery in broad daylight. It was all Kangxi's fault and had nothing to do with him.
Another week later, Mu Sili had to move to Yonghe Palace. Liang Jiugong bid her farewell in tears. If nothing unexpected happened, Kangxi's anger would also follow.
As he expected, before the afternoon, the palace maids and servants serving in the Qianqing Palace were complaining to Liang Jiugong with bitter faces.
"This servant is really exhausted. When will the young lady come over? I'm used to a relaxing and comfortable life, and I really can't adapt to it all at once."
"That's right. We used to serve him this way. How come he can't change after just a month?"
"Eunuch Liang, I've already brought the Emperor tea seven times, and he's never been satisfied. How about you bring it in this time? I'm really afraid the Emperor will scold me the next time I bring it in."
Liang Jiugong was speechless. If they were afraid, wouldn't he be afraid too? It seemed like they thought they were slaves, so he wasn't a slave anymore, right?
At best, his status was only slightly higher than theirs, and he was still a slave. Since he was a slave, he could not take the blame for them.
"Serving tea is your job. How can you ask us to help you? What if the emperor thinks you're lazy and gives you a beating?"
"But......"
"Don't say but, the Emperor can't wait any longer. You should go serve tea first, lest you anger the Emperor and even if Noble Ding comes, he won't be able to save you."
If Mu Sili had not just moved to Yonghe Palace today, he would have gone to Yonghe Palace to invite her over.
"Liang Jiugong, you dog slave, what nonsense are you talking about out there? Where is my tea? Where is the servant who serves tea? If you can't even serve tea properly, do you still want to stay in the Palace of Heavenly Purity?"
Sure enough, Kangxi's furious voice came out, scaring them so much that they trembled. Help! They really hoped that Mu Sili could fall from the sky and save them from the water.
"The servant is here. I will come in and serve you."
Kangxi felt that something was wrong today, as if something was missing. Even reading memorials was not going well, and he always wanted to get angry.
Liang Jiugong was serving carefully at the side, and when he saw that he was showing signs of slacking off, he felt a headache. He had never seen him be so lazy before. How come he had become such a different person in such a short time?
"Your Majesty, I see that Consort Ding has some unfinished business. How about this: once you've read the memorial, I'll accompany you to Yonghe Palace?"
