Chapter 155 Kangxi Pure Concubine 22
Chapter 155 Kangxi Pure Concubine 22
Wangshu is currently very satisfied with her life.
There is no need to pay respects, and the food, clothing and other necessities are all excellent.
Although she has fewer entertainment activities, she has already studied the operating principles of the watch. Currently, it can be considered a fun way to pass the time, and her life is not boring.
Kangxi would come over from time to time to chat with her to relieve her boredom and flirt with her.
Everything is perfect except that it is not very free.
He happily ate snacks and flipped through the sketchbook, complaining to the system: "The writing is really good, and the content is also acceptable, but it's a bit short and has no punctuation marks. It's really tiring to read!"
"Host, just be content! Whose palace fighting can be as leisurely as yours!"
How could Wangshu be satisfied? "Do you have any novels, TV series or anything like that?"
She wanted to read. Although picture books could help kill time, only some ghost stories were worth reading, and most of them were rather tacky. There should be other types, but in the environment of the Qing Dynasty, they could not circulate into the palace!
System: "...Can we do without it?"
Wangshu's eyes lit up: "That's it. System, you're not being nice. We're in a relationship of mutual support. You didn't even think of ordering a good thing from me. You're being estranged!"
system……
The system cursed and brought out novels and TV series for her. When Wangshu saw them, he became even happier.
"Wow, it's a holographic projection. Wow, there are also mecha pieces. So real and cool!"
Wangshu was so happy. She didn't expect that she would find so many stocks when she just bombarded the system. Most of these videos had names she had heard of before. They came from the system's "homeland", the interstellar space, and there were also things she was familiar with.
It seems that I need to shake it more often in the future, who knows what else there is in stock!
In the blink of an eye, it’s the end of the year.
Baozhu: "Your Majesty, Concubine Yi gave birth to a prince last night, both mother and child are safe."
Wangshu said: "Send someone to deliver a gift!"
"Yes, ma'am."
Concubine Yi gave birth, but at night, when Kangxi came to her, she was already able to serve him in bed.
"Are you in a bad mood today?"
"I'm not in a bad mood. I heard that Concubine Yi gave birth to a prince for you. I'm a little envious. I hope I can give you a child someday. I'm pretty. If I give birth to a princess, she'll look like me. Your Majesty is brave and extraordinary. If I give birth to a prince, he'll look like you. That would be great."
Looking at the envy and longing in her eyes, Kangxi thought of the lost child again.
"Yes, there will be a child."
"Your Majesty, I naturally believe you. Your Majesty, shall we go and have the baby?"
Kangxi picked her up and walked to the bed, spending the whole night in a crazy mood.
The next day, Wangshu received another reward from Kangxi. Since Concubine Yi gave birth to a son, she would also receive a large reward. Everyone in the harem was stunned, and they realized how favored Concubine Chun was.
Rongpin couldn't help but sigh and laugh at herself: "Everyone says that the emperor doted on me in the past, and I thought that was the greatest favor. But now compared with Chunpin, my great favor seems ridiculous. It's such a pity. If Hesheli was still alive, she would be so angry! Unfortunately, she died too early."
"My lady, walls have ears, be careful what you say."
Rongpin sneered: "There are no outsiders. If I don't say a few words, I'm afraid I will be very upset. Don't worry, Ma'am, my words will not be spread."
Rongpin now appears to be noncompetitive in public, but her nature is not like that. Looking back on her past, she was much more straightforward than Yipin today.
A hero never brags about his past achievements!
All in all, Wangshu's great favor was witnessed by all in the harem, but fortunately Kangxi still had a sense of propriety and would never favor one person alone, and Wangshu was not a person who was arrogant and would cause trouble.
The relationship between the favorite concubine and the other concubines in the harem was also relatively harmonious.
Of course, this is partly due to the fact that Wangshu does not have to pay respects and does not like to go out, as well as Kangxi's secret care and Dai Jia's thoughtfulness.
Two days before the New Year.
Wangshu: "Ask the small kitchen to make some soup and send it to the Qianqing Palace."
Su Mu: "Yes, Madam."
Kangxi received her soup, drank it, and couldn't help laughing and saying, "Princess Chun and Shao sent the soup to the Qianqing Palace. After packing up, go to the Qixiang Palace."
Sending soup is equivalent to seeking favor. Wangshu didn't do it before because it was unnecessary. With the frequency of Kangxi's visits, if she tried to seek favor again, the concubines in the harem would have to focus their fire on her.
The Qianqing Palace was not far from the Qixiang Palace, so Kangxi arrived there quickly.
"I have met the emperor."
Kangxi took her into the house and said, "Bring me some soup. Do you miss me?"
"Of course I think of Your Majesty all the time, but I sent you the soup because I prepared a New Year gift for you."
Kangxi became interested.
"What is it?"
"Please follow me to the study. The things are in the study."
Kangxi followed her into the study and saw a large wooden box on the workbench.
"Your Majesty, you can open it and take a look. This is made by me!"
Kangxi really didn't know that she had prepared this gift, so he was very excited. After opening it, he found that it was a clock.
There is no saying that giving a watch as a gift is unlucky at this time.
There were not many clocks in the palace, but Wangshu had two, and both had passed his inspection.
“You made this!”
Kangxi's tone was full of surprise and admiration!
Clocks were introduced from the West, and he has arranged for craftsmen to learn the craft. They have made some progress, but it is hard to say what the success rate is.
There aren’t many finished products.
Style?
Although it looks good, it's nothing new.
The clock in front of him is different. It is gorgeous but not exaggerated, which is rare. The background of the dial is an ink painting that he made in his spare time.
"The Imperial Household Department helped a lot with the design. The things inside were made by me, and the style was also made according to my wishes. Does the emperor like it?"
"Of course I like it. I just didn't expect that my little moon would have such a great ability and could even make a clock. It's amazing."
Wangshu was embarrassed by the praise: "As long as the emperor likes it, I will put it in the study of the Qianqing Palace, so that the emperor can think of me when he looks at the time. I can't be with you all the time, but I want the emperor to think of me when he looks up."
"I will put it in the study and look at it every day. I have received your kindness."
Wangshu smiled and said: "This is not enough, this is also for the emperor."
After that, Wangshu took out a blueprint and gave it to him.
"This is?"
"I have asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the blueprint of the clock. The craftsmanship of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in making clocks is still unstable, so I drew a blueprint.
I heard from Baozhu that in the imported goods shops outside the palace, a watch can cost hundreds or even thousands of taels, and the demand is far from meeting supply.
I have made it myself and found that the cost of making watches is not particularly high. If the parts are made according to the specified dimensions, I can definitely make a lot of them.
Your Majesty is diligent in his work and loves his people. I am stupid and cannot help you with your worries, so I thought of giving you the blueprints and creating an imperial merchant. This will also give something of my love to the Qing Dynasty and the emperor."
Kangxi also studied clocks and watches. Even if he couldn't make one himself, he could still tell the quality of the drawings. The drawings looked much better than those provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
"Is this your own idea?"
"I think I have both. I made a clock, and Baozhu said that if I could sell it, it would bring in a lot of income, so I had this idea. But what's wrong with my idea?"
As she spoke, she looked at Kangxi worriedly.
Kangxi said quickly: "There is nothing wrong. My Concubine Chun is really pure and kind."
Wangshu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
