The Virtuous Concubine

After the decree of conferring titles on the six palaces was issued, the concubines in the harem were more genuinely happy, and their eyes looking at Kangxi were more sincere. After all, this was a real increase in status and status. During this period, everyone in the harem was much more friendly when they met, and there were fewer quarrels and bickering.

Kangxi was also very happy. He had won a great victory in his previous reign and completely put down the rebellion of the Three Feudatories. He was in a good mood and liked everyone. He even issued an imperial decree to reward the royal family and foreign vassals. A combination of "granting titles and gifts, expanding the number of titles, promoting hermits, honoring chastity and filial piety, caring for the lonely and amnesty for the whole world" made his throne more stable.

It can be said that this year was a year of great success for Kangxi in the former dynasty. The former dynasty was thriving, and he was more willing to spend time in the harem. Concubine Wei was already quite favored, and with such frequent visits, it was natural for her to get pregnant. However, she did not catch up with the six palaces, so it can only be said that she missed the opportunity to be promoted to a concubine.

Wei's pregnancy was not good. First, she had just been freed from a long period of copying, and second, she drank too much contraceptive soup when she was a concubine. The soup was very cold and really hurt her body. She was in excruciating pain every month when she had her period, and the time was not regular. This made her unaware of her pregnancy and she did not take care of herself in time, which made this pregnancy even worse.

Malu was a little surprised when she learned about this: "Will this Eighth Prince be killed by a butterfly?"

The system didn't know, it hadn't unlocked the permission to check her health condition yet. This was purely because Malu felt that it was a waste to unlock it now, and it wouldn't be too late to unlock it when Kangxi was about to die, and the system complained about being stingy. Points won't earn interest if they are left there!

This morning, the system reminded me early: "The probability of you giving birth today is 93%. You have to be careful and don't go anywhere."

Upon hearing this, Malu called Bai Xia and Bai Fu and instructed them: "Go check the midwives and wet nurses immediately and make sure they are on standby at all times. After the check, place them properly and then carefully check every corner of the delivery room to make sure everything is ready for delivery."

Bai Xia and Bai Fu felt that this instruction was indeed a bit sudden, after all, the estimated date of delivery by Doctor Rong was more than half a month away. But they still did it - after following the master for so many years, they could more or less sense that the master had some magical qualities. For example, every time the master wanted to trick the emperor, the master would catch the emperor wherever he was, accurate to the minute. The master was also able to grasp the emperor's mood, looking at the emperor was like looking at a blank piece of paper, and seeing everything at a glance.

At first they thought their master had connections with the emperor, but they had never seen their master contact anyone in front of the emperor. But since their master didn't say anything, they didn't ask and just obeyed.

Malu waited quietly, and even took the time to ask Dachun to bring the Fourth Prince over, and they had a good time together. Malu hugged the Fourth Prince and kissed him non-stop, making him blush and bury his head in Malu's shoulder shyly. Malu couldn't hold him now, so she could only put him on the bed and gently stroke his hair.

He was not old enough to have his hair shaved yet, so his hair was short and soft, like a penguin chick. Malu loved to touch his hair the most. After the twins were born, according to the rules of the Qing Dynasty, she would probably have to stay in confinement for two months. Malu was reluctant to not see the Fourth Prince for two months.

Malu sighed softly: "Yinzhen, mother won't be able to see you for the next two months, what should I do?"

Yinzhen raised his head and said, "Mother, Yinzhen is waiting for you to study."

Malu was amused by his pedantic words. She smiled and tapped Yinzhen's forehead. Although the force was very light, it almost pushed him over. "What? Can't you take the initiative to look for mother?"

Seeing that he almost fell over, Malu became even more worried - this child, despite being fed so many tonics, supplemented with so much nutrition through scientific parenting, and guided to do so many activities, he wouldn't still have the strength of four and a half tonnes, right?

"Silly child," Malu gently took Yinzhen's hand and helped him sit back down, "Mother was just joking. No matter where you are, you are always in my heart. No matter how many brothers and sisters you have, Yinzhen will always be the most special one. You have to take good care of yourself and wait for mother to come out, okay?"

Yinzhen nodded seriously, as if he couldn't bear to hear Malu's admonitions: "Mother, Yinzhen is obedient. The little emperor is bad."

Malu couldn't help but look at Dachun who was standing next to him with his head bowed: "Who is the little emperor?"

Without waiting for Dachun to answer, Yinzhen said, "He said that mother only wants brothers and sisters, not Yinzhen."

Malu's eyes showed a fierce light. There really was someone so ignorant as to mess with their mother-son relationship! She was not distracted, and her expression was still as gentle as a loving mother: "Don't listen to him, he lied to Yinzhen. We don't want him anymore."

Just a few words determined the future fate of this little eunuch.

The treatment in Yonghe Palace was unparalleled in the entire harem. After Malu was promoted to Defei, she even designed a system based on the modern five insurances and one fund, double wages on holidays, etc. Not only was the treatment better than before, but if she was sick, she could directly use Malu's badge to invite the imperial physician to see a doctor.

I didn’t expect that there are still so many termites to catch!

If you don't know how to cherish the Yonghe Palace, which treats everyone well and treats everyone as a blessed place, you are ungrateful. When Dachun heard what his master said, he knew that the eunuch named Jie Tiantian was finished. Malu has always been kind and would only return him to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The Ministry of Internal Affairs would assign him some of the lowest jobs such as cleaning toilets and stables, but at least he would have a way out.

But someone who is not even wanted by Concubine De of Yonghe Palace is not worthy of being on duty in the palace. There is a high probability that he will be directly expelled from the palace after he is sent back, so that he can understand what the rules and what the limits are.

However, what surprised Malu even more was that Yinzhen actually showed decisiveness far beyond his age: "We don't want this kind of person, this Jie Tian, ​​beat him to death, beat him to death." His little hands were clenched into fists, and there was a ruthlessness in his eyes that was inconsistent with his age.

Malu was horrified: "Yinzhen! Who taught you to punish people like this?" She thought for a long time, but she didn't think anyone would say such a thing in front of Yinzhen. She was afraid of scaring the child, so she gently stroked Yinzhen's hair and said softly: "Yinzhen, mother knows you are doing this for her own good, but we can't hurt others at will. Mother will handle this matter, you don't have to worry."

After hearing this, Yinzhen showed some confusion on his face, but still nodded: "Mother, Yinzhen listens to you."

After saying that, he buried his head in Malu's shoulder again. But where Malu couldn't see, he looked at Dachun next to Malu with cold eyes and repeated silently with his mouth: "Beat them to death, beat them all to death."
