Rong Fei is not honored

"Since Concubine Zhang said so..." The Queen was interrupted by Concubine Hui's scolding before she could finish her words.

"Say it again! Since she wasn't the one who bullied you, why didn't you tell me when I asked you yesterday?"

The queen was so angry at Concubine Hui's rudeness that her face turned blue, but she didn't scold her. Concubine Zhang's eyes were red, and she looked at the queen for help.

Concubine Hui was even more furious, "Who are you showing this to!" Yesterday, the other party acted like this and deceived Concubine Hui, making her think that Zhang was afraid of Ma Jia and did not dare to tell the truth, and making her think that she had really caught Ma Jia's handle.

"Haha, Concubine Hui, you look like you want to eat someone, so how can Concubine Zhang dare to tell the truth? If the truth is told, it will lose your face, and you will be so angry that you bite people, what should you do?" Ji Nai said sarcastically.

As Ji Nai finished speaking, low laughter was heard in the hall.

"You! You guys!"

"Okay, Concubine Hui! Haven't you had enough of making a fuss? Hurry up and sit back down." The Queen was already satisfied after seeing Nara's humiliated look today. She couldn't let her make a fuss anymore, otherwise how would the next show start?

The Queen then turned to look at Concubine Zhang and said in a gentle voice, "Sister Zhang, if you have any difficulties, you can just speak up. Why kneel down? We are all sisters in the palace. We will definitely help if we can, right, Sister Ma Jia?"

Who are you sisters with? Ji Nai sneered in his heart, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "Of course, I just don't know what Concubine Zhang wants from me to make such a big fuss, even kneeling down."

The meaning of this was unclear. Concubine Hui and the others looked at Concubine Zhang thoughtfully. Yes, if there was something wrong, why couldn't they say it first? Why did they have to kneel down and beg?

Concubine Hui and Yuan Xu thought of the same word, moral kidnapping. It seemed that what Concubine Zhang was asking for was definitely not a good thing. It was just that Yuan Xu was worried about Ji Nai, while Concubine Hui was waiting to see the joke.

Concubine Zhang felt everyone's gazes and bit her lower lip lightly. Was she being too reckless? If this plan failed, her reputation would be ruined, which would displease the Emperor.

At this moment, Concubine Zhang felt a little regretful, but the situation did not allow her to retreat even a step. "Sister Zhang, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. Are you afraid that Sister Ma Jia will not agree?" The Queen urged with a heavier tone.

Concubine Zhang gritted her teeth, knelt down, and kowtowed to Ji Nai, and then said: "Sister Ma Jia, I hope you can be the mother of the little princess."

As soon as this was said, there was an uproar. Concubine Zhang was crazy. Why would she give a good child to someone else? Although a princess is not as good as a prince, she is still a support.

Ji Nai snorted lightly, ignoring Concubine Zhang who was kneeling at his feet. He raised his chin towards Concubine Hui opposite him and said, "See, she did the same thing yesterday. She knelt down without saying anything. I also find it inexplicable."

Seeing that Concubine Hui's face turned black because of what he said, Ji Nai felt happy and laughed out loud. Concubine Zhang felt humiliated when she saw that Ji Nai had no intention of paying attention to her, and she clenched her hands tightly in her sleeves.

Ahem! The queen coughed lightly, and then reminded: "Sister Ma Jia, Sister Zhang is still kneeling."

"Oh."

"Sister Ma Jia, what do you mean by this? Are you humiliating me?"

"Humiliation? Did I ask you to kneel? Did I ask you to kowtow? After kneeling for a while, you couldn't stand it and felt wronged and humiliated? I still feel wronged. I was inexplicably labeled as someone who forced people to kneel when I walked on the street. Now it's the same again. What? Do you want to force me to agree by kneeling?"

Concubine Zhang felt guilty, so her voice weakened again, "That's not what I meant."

"Then what do you mean?" Ji Nai refused to give in.

The queen quickly came out to smooth things over, saying, "Alright, alright, we are sisters, why are you being so aggressive?"

"I am being aggressive? How about you, the Queen, raise the little princess?"

"Well, Sister Zhang wants you to raise her. After all, she is the little princess's biological mother."

"So what? What does Concubine Zhang think?" Ji Nai sneered, "Don't blame me for being harsh. Even if Concubine Zhang is the little princess's biological mother, so what? Who does she think she is? Does she have the right to decide where the little princess will go?"

"Ma Jia, you are going too far."

"Is it too much? But what did I say that is not true? Little Princess is the daughter of His Majesty, a princess of the Qing Dynasty. Even if Zhang is the little princess's biological mother, she is not worthy of disliking the little princess again and again."

"Sister Ma Jia, I don't dislike the little princess. I hope the best for her." As she said this, Concubine Zhang looked submissive and cried like a pear blossom in the rain, which was really pitiful.

Unfortunately, the women present were all vying for the same man, so they naturally didn't really feel how pitiful Concubine Zhang was. However, the protagonists of this confrontation were obviously the Queen and Ma Jia, and Concubine Zhang was just a knife, so they didn't want to get involved.

"Concubine Zhang, I didn't ask you the reason. What I want to ask is, does His Majesty know that you acted on your own?"

Concubine Hui mocked, "Of course I don't know. Who knows, maybe Concubine Zhang wants to act first and report later. She thinks she still has some standing with His Majesty. After the matter is settled, His Majesty will not give her no face."

Concubine Hui hated Ma Jia, but she hated the Queen even more. Since Concubine Zhang dared to get involved with the Queen, she was her enemy. Don't blame her for taking revenge.

"Speaking of which, little Princess is also pitiful. Since she was born, you, her biological mother, have disliked her and even refused to raise her yourself."

Ji Nai and Concubine Hui were talking back and forth, and Concubine Zhang had no confidence to refute. The Queen was very angry when she saw how useless Concubine Zhang was, but she had to speak up to help Zhang.

"Sister Ma Jia, sister Nara, sister Zhang is the little princess's biological mother after all, how could she not love her sincerely? Why don't you all make such a fuss? Why don't we just be patient and listen to sister Zhang's reasons?"

Ji Nai sneered. Could it be that since Chengrui got into trouble, he had not confronted the Queen, so she thought that he was being cautious and did not dare to directly embarrass her?

But Ji Nai didn't want to endure it this time. After all, Kangxi had said that if one didn't want to endure it, then there was no need to endure it. As long as it wasn't too excessive, he would cover for himself.

"I don't understand what the Queen said. Zhang is just a concubine, but she dares to look down on the pearl of the royal family. As the legitimate mother of the little princess, why don't you rebuke Concubine Zhang and protect her?"
