Qing Dynasty: Pampering The Queen

Zhou Yan originally wanted to refuse, but he knew his master's temperament in his heart. Since he said so, he would definitely not change his mind, so he had to hand over his hand and thank him.

Lord Kangxi smiled and waved his hands: "Zhou Qing and I don't need such vain courtesy."

Bihong didn't come back again, the two of them, the monarch and his ministers, talked about the past, the current situation, and the political affairs in the court, but they didn't realize that the moon had moved to the west.

When I came back to my senses, it was already past midnight.

Master Kangxi felt a little guilty at once, and said with a smile: "I don't think it's this time, you are not in good health, go to sleep."

I didn't realize it before, but now I realized it later, Zhou Yan really couldn't stand it anymore, so he didn't pretend to refuse at the moment, and resigned, and went to rest.

Liang Jiugong came in with a bow, seeing his master still sitting here in a daze, he carefully smiled and said: "Master, you can go and rest too."

Lord Kangxi nodded, sighed and got up.

This night, the three of them were destined not to be able to fall asleep.

Especially Lord Kangxi, his thoughts were ups and downs, tossing and turning, and he kept his eyes open almost all night.

For many years, he has never had such a turbulent time.

Sighing for a while, laughing lightly for a while, feeling lost for a while, satisfied for a while, contradictory and tender, sad and sweet.

Bihong had long been used to getting up early, and got up at dawn the next day, and ran to the pool in the back mountain to practice swords by himself.

She has excellent boxing and kick skills, but the swordsmanship was taught by the guards around Lord Kangxi back then. Now, with the long sword in hand, there are very few opponents.

And the commander of the guards who taught her swordsmanship in the past is already old.

Now the guards around him are young, strong, and heroic, and they look like masters, but none of them are faces she is familiar with.

The years are always changing something silently. When you suddenly look back and realize that everything is different from what you are familiar with.

She was in a trance when she heard footsteps behind her and looked back.

Master Kangxi smiled and walked to her side.

"I still remember when you pretended to be a bodyguard and accompanied me."

Bihong smiled, raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look at him: "Really? Then I'm very honored!"

At that time, she was reprimanded by the Empress Dowager, who accused her of being absurd and ignorant of the rules.

Lord Kangxi smiled again: "You were very good at that time, and you are even better now."

Bihong nodded, rather proudly: "That's natural!"

Lord Kangxi: "Then, do I still have the honor to have you by my side?"

Bihong: ""

Bihong smiled and said, "You're waiting for me here! I'm old, I can't do it!"

"Ah Hong!" Maybe the word "old" hurt Lord Kangxi's nerves, he suddenly became agitated and lost his composure, holding her arms with both hands, staring at her with burning eyes: "Do you know , since you left, I have been looking for you all these years"

Bihong's eyes were calm, his expression was calm, and he even let him hold his arm like this, without saying a word.

Lord Kangxi suppressed his emotions, and said in a deep voice: "I originally thought that after the death of the Empress Dowager, you would always go back to Beijing to see me, but I didn't expect it to be just my wishful thinking! Do you know why I have made several southern tours?" ? It was because you told me that you liked Jiangnan and that you would choose to settle in Jiangnan in the future, and I was looking for you!"

"This time, it should be my last tour to the south. I stopped at various docks in the south of the Yangtze River all the way, and made private visits in disguise. I only hope that God will be merciful to see you. If I can't, I don't have the strength to look forward to it or wait any longer. "
