Chapter 320 Fu Jin 27
As soon as Yin'e finished speaking, his mind went blank as if a thunderclap had exploded. Then, the originally blurry figure suddenly emerged like a tide, becoming clearer and clearer. What he had never expected was that such a person would appear at this moment and in this place! The hazy face gradually became clear, and every subtle expression was exactly the same as the one seen today by Qiqige.
Although Yin'e still had many questions in his mind, the beautiful figure that was deeply imprinted in his mind brought him endless joy and pleasure. Unconsciously, the corners of his lips slightly raised, and a faint smile quietly appeared on his face.
Yin'e on the side thought that what Yin'e said made sense. However, just when Yin'e finished speaking, it was as if time suddenly froze, and he seemed to be lost in some kind of contemplation. Gradually, his originally resolute eyes began to reveal a hint of tenderness, and the corners of his mouth slowly rose, outlining an imperceptible arc. The image of a simple and honest man in his daily life has disappeared at this moment, replaced by a state of spring love and confusion. Yin'e really couldn't bear to look at this scene in front of him, and thought to himself: It seems that Yin'e has finally figured out the connection, but it's really hard to accept such a look!
After that, Yin'e finally realized the truth and had the idea of visiting the person he loved frequently. So, he often went there in the name of visiting Bater, hoping to meet Qiqige by chance. However, Yin'e never expected that his thoughts that he could not hide had already been seen through by everyone. If it were not for Yin'e's repeated covering up for him, I am afraid that Emperor Kangxi would have noticed it long ago. If so, it is hard to say whether this marriage can be agreed. After all, although Emperor Kangxi felt that the two were a good match, he would never want to see his son become a lovesick seed.
Not only that, even someone like Bater who was a little dull about the relationship between men and women could see the clues. It was because every time Yin'e came here, before they had even talked for a few words, he would start to ask about Qiqige's situation in a roundabout way. At first, Bater didn't understand why, and just thought it was Yin'e's casual question, so he answered casually. It was not until later that he came to his senses, but he still chose to pretend to be confused and gave Yin'e several chances. However, sometimes he really couldn't understand what Yin'e meant, so he could only continue to pretend to be ignorant.
After some thought, Yin'e finally came to his senses, but at this moment, he had gradually developed a thick skin. After all, there was nothing wrong with coming to visit his future wife, not to mention that he could see her by talking a few more words, which did not seem to be something difficult to accept.
When Qiqige saw through Yin'e's true thoughts, she began to guide him subtly. In this way, time passed quietly, until there was a full month left before the draft, when the two finally revealed their true feelings to each other.
After Yin'e learned of Qiqige's response, he was overjoyed and his mood was as bright as the sun. However, Qiqige thought it was a good thing, at least at this moment, she was very satisfied with the current situation.
As the day of the selection approached, with her prominent family background and outstanding appearance, and the fact that Emperor Kangxi had already known this, everyone was almost certain that Qiqige would become the future Tenth Concubine. Therefore, during the selection process, Qiqige did not deliberately do anything, and everything seemed to be a natural outcome. Whether it was the preliminary selection or the re-selection, she passed it easily. When it came to the final selection stage, Qiqige entered the palace with many other concubines, received strict etiquette training, and waited for the final decision of her fate.
In the palace, Qiqige always kept a low profile and did not show herself too much, because she knew very well that as long as she could pass the final selection safely, her future fate would be clear to her.
In this deep palace, Qiqige met a woman named Dong'e Qingning. There was no doubt that she was the one who would become the Ninth Lady. This beautiful woman was gentle and polite, and could be called the best among the Manchu beauties. Her appearance was elegant and graceful, extraordinary and unforgettable. When Qiqige and Dong'e Qingning lived in the same bedroom, it was Dong'e Qingning herself who broke the silence first. As time went by, Qiqige gradually realized that Dong'e Qingning was such a considerate, gentle and caring person.
At the same time, the other ladies in the palace were also well aware of the identity of Qiqige, the Mongolian princess. They knew that if everything went well, Qiqige would undoubtedly become the Tenth Wife. Because of this, most people showed their friendship to Qiqige, but a very small number of people were jealous and resentful of Qiqige.
