Rong Fei is not honored

Under Ji Nai's gentle gaze, Yuan Xu said with relief: "There are many parents who don't love their children, and many parents who don't know how to love their children. But these are not the children's fault, nor are they our fault. Fortunately, you are not such a parent."

Ji Nai's eyes flickered when she saw Yuan Xu quickly adjusted his mood. What she didn't tell him was: Even if the Queen loved Chenghu, this motherly love was very thin, and it was more of a desire for power, and Chenghu was just a tool of the Queen.

But if he said this, Yuan Xu would be even more sad. In the words of that era, it was the misfortune of childhood, which needed a lifetime to heal. Moreover, once he said it deeply, Yuan Xu would know that this sick child would not have the chance to grow up.

Unless the queen could let go of her obsession with power, or could foresee that she would give birth to a healthy son in a few years, perhaps Chenghu would still have a chance of survival.

Otherwise, the queen would have placed all her hopes on Chenghu after waiting so long for this prince. As for Kangxi's fatherly actions, they would only make the queen more eager to force Chenghu to make progress.

All these were like adding insult to injury. For Chenghu, who was already in poor health, it was like his own mother was sending him to his death with her own hands.

Ji Nai didn't want Yuan Xu to know this, because she couldn't be sure whether Yuan Xu would let her save these poor children. She always knew that there was a fundamental difference between her and Yuan Xu.

Even though Yuan Xu, who had gone through several lifetimes of trials and tribulations, was no longer purely kind, she would never harbor ill will towards innocent children. At most, she would bare her fangs towards concubines who were her competitors.

However, if Chenghu was alive, it would be a huge threat to her and would also be the queen's life-saving talisman. Based on her understanding of Kangxi, this weak child would definitely make Kangxi soft-hearted. So,

As his biological mother, would the Queen be spared by Kangxi at a critical moment? How could he keep such an uncertain factor, so...

A few days after New Year's Eve, the servants in Kunning Palace took frequent actions and secretly contacted Prince Chengrui's wet nurse in Zhongcui Palace, and the results were quite good.

The Queen then learned that the wet nurse beside Chengrui had been punished by Ma Jia and made to kneel in the snow, but was not sent away but had remained with Chengrui.

Because of this, the wet nurse surrendered on the surface, but hated Ma Jia in her heart, but she didn't dare to do anything. The queen was still a little hesitant, afraid that this was a flaw that Ma Jia deliberately revealed, waiting for her to take the bait.

It was not until she heard that Ma Jia was going to send the wet nurse back after Cheng Rui turned six and not keep her forever that the Queen sneered and felt relieved. It was no wonder that the wet nurse had turned away from him. Ma Jia was too petty.

In the aristocratic families, which young master was not brought up by a wet nurse? As a mother, she only needed to discipline the servants and care about their studies. How could there be someone like Ma Jia who did everything herself, as if she was afraid that the prince would become alienated from her?

In this regard, Madam Zhao once tried to please the Queen and said, "What you said are the rules of a big family. And usually the mistress of the house needs to take care of the household affairs, so she gives the child to the madam. But what is the identity of Ma Jia? She is just a concubine from a bannerman family. And she can only rely on the child, so naturally she is worried that she will not be close to me."

Although on the surface, the Queen reprimanded Zhao Mama and told her not to talk about her master, but from the upturned corners of her mouth, it can be seen that the Queen agreed with what Zhao Mama said.

In addition to Kunning Palace, Ningshou Palace also changed its low profile and became lively. However, unlike the joy of the birth of a baby in Kunning Palace, the imperial doctors frequently came and went in Ningshou Palace.

Just after the New Year, news came out from Ningshou Palace that Concubine Borjigit was seriously ill. This time, she was really ill, not the victim of a conspiracy. And judging from the reaction of the imperial physician, it seemed that she was not in good condition.

Everyone in the palace, including the Empress Dowager, was very surprised. He was fine during the Chinese New Year, but he fell ill a few days later. He was seriously ill and was in critical condition. The Empress Dowager originally thought that someone was asking for trouble and had attacked him again, but she didn't expect that the doctor she often used also replied that he was really ill.

The Empress Dowager could not accept this fact and she had a tantrum at the Imperial Medical Bureau. However, even though the doctors tried their best, they could not save Concubine Borjigit's life.

By March, seeing the situation, the Imperial Household Department started preparing directly. Although it was unlucky to prepare funeral items when someone was alive, if the concubine really passed away and the Imperial Household Department was completely unprepared, resulting in a shabby funeral for the concubine, then the Imperial Household Department would have to bear the brunt of the Empress Dowager's fate.

Ji Nai once followed the crowd to visit her. The bright and outgoing woman in the past now looked haggard, as if she had lost all her vitality.

Ji Nai suddenly realized that Concubine Borjigit had actually begun to wither and decay since she was poisoned, but at that time, she began to decay from the inside, so she appeared normal on the surface and was not noticed.

But now that the inside has decayed completely, it has just erupted. That is why it is so fierce, and within two or three months, it will be time to prepare for the funeral.

Ji Nai followed the crowd and left without a chance to say a word to Borjigit concubine. But from the look on her face, Ji Nai didn't think she had anything to say to him.

However, after Ji Nai returned to Zhongcui Palace, Yu Sheng, who had followed him out, stepped forward with a serious expression and reported, "Master, the head maidservant next to Concubine Borjigit just now privately said that their master wanted to talk to you away from others."

"We said this in private. Did anyone see it?"

"No, I avoided people on purpose, and my movements were low-key and my voice was very quiet, so no one noticed."

"I know, please go down first."

Yuan Xu was a little worried, "This won't be a trap, why not just not go."

[But she is not so sneaky when doing things. I think she has something important to say to me.] After thinking about it, Ji Nai decided to go. It was also a way to fulfill her friendship with Qi Ge.

But Ji Nai was not so stupid as to rush in without knowing the way ahead. She had informed Kangxi in advance, and faced with Kangxi's strange expression, Ji Nai acted very frankly. After all, she had never intervened in the dirty things in the harem, and there was nothing she could not tell Kangxi.

"Others would hide their secrets as deeply as possible, but you just laid them out in front of me. Aren't you afraid that I will know your little secret?"

"I really have nothing to hide from Your Majesty, so I am not afraid." Of course, the matter of rebirth and Yuan Xu does not count.
