Rong Fei is not honored
Chapter 160 Helping with the Aftermath
That evening, after Kangxi had appeased Nara, he came to Zhongcui Palace. His face was very long, which clearly showed that Kangxi was in a bad mood.
Ji Nai knew he was in the wrong, so he stepped forward to help Kangxi change into his casual clothes and served him tea and water. However, Kangxi showed no sign of softening, so Ji Nai had to grit his teeth and use the beauty trap.
Kangxi held down his hands that were restless on his chest and said unhappily, "Is this how you admit your mistake?"
Ji Nai blinked her eyes, "Admit your mistake? What have I done wrong? Why should I admit my mistake?"
"You still dare to say that you are not wrong. Do you know that if I had been there later, you would have been beaten?"
"I knew His Majesty would come, and Nanny Li and Yu Sheng were there to stop him."
"But there are only two of them. Can they stop them?"
"That's not my fault. I had planned everything. Even if the Queen really wanted to do it, you would have been able to stop her in time. Who knew that Concubine Hui would be so bold and say such words to provoke the Queen?"
"Then you are not wrong? Since you know that things are out of control, you should stop while you are ahead, even if it means giving in first. But you dare to provoke the queen."
"If I had bowed my head at that time, I would have lost all my dignity. In the future, I'm afraid everyone in the palace will laugh at me for being strong on the outside but weak on the inside."
"So, you have to be tough so that the Queen will lose completely today?"
Ji Nai put his arms around Kangxi's neck, leaned against him, and confessed:
"I don't want to deceive His Majesty. Ever since she attacked Chengrui, I will never be able to reconcile with the Queen. What I did today was to undermine the Queen's prestige in the six palaces, so that she can't take a single step."
"I don't blame you for dealing with the queen, but I also said that you don't need to personally take part in this matter. If you really get hurt, it will make me and Chengrui worried."
"I won't do that again. I will take good care of myself."
Kangxi finally felt relieved after receiving Ji Nai's assurance. God knows how anxious he was when he heard that the queen was going to torture Ji Nai when he rushed to Kunning Palace, fearing that she would really be hurt by the queen.
Suddenly, Kangxi remembered something and asked Ji Nai, "Why did you agree to raise the little princess?"
Kangxi remembered that when he first mentioned this matter, Ji Nai was unwilling because she was afraid of trouble. It was impossible that Ji Nai was unwilling at that time but was willing now.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. This will never work. I have absolutely legitimate reasons to refuse. However, I don't dislike Little Princess Ang. I just..."
"I know that you are worried that the Queen will use the little princess to plot against you. I chose the Queen because of this consideration."
It's just that the Queen is unwilling to accept this hot potato. Ji Nai added secretly, "Your Majesty, don't worry, there will soon be a situation that the Queen will have to accept."
Ji Nai knew that Kangxi really wanted to register the little princess under the name of the queen. This man really loved his eldest daughter and felt sorry for her not having motherly love.
Otherwise, how could Kangxi not know that if the queen had another child, even if it was a princess, it would increase the power of Kunning Palace. But for the sake of the child, Kangxi still did it.
Didn't Concubine Zhang dislike the little princess for delaying her, so she would help her. But she shouldn't even think about having others help her raise the child, if she wanted to cut off the relationship, she should do it cleanly.
Didn't the Queen want to use the little princess to plot against him? Then she would let the Queen suffer the consequences. Ji Nai knew very well that the Queen would never accept the little princess. She was waiting for her rejection, which would only make Kangxi feel worse about the Queen.
Kill several birds with one stone.
Kangxi suddenly realized, "So you acted so straightforward at that time, just to trick the queen?"
"hey-hey."
Kangxi said angrily: "You are taking too much risk. If you don't have a legitimate reason, the good reputation you have created will backfire. Even if you have a suitable reason, the Queen will find fault with it."
"Yes, I know."
"Know?" Kangxi looked at Ji Nai suspiciously, "Are you hiding something from me again?"
"No, no, I am also waiting for news." She couldn't tell Kangxi that their Saiyin Chahun had arrived.
At this time, the baby was not even one month old. Even if the imperial physician came, he could not tell anything. How could Ji Nai explain how he knew? It was better not to tell him for now. When the time came, he could give Kangxi a surprise.
Kangxi was even more curious about what Ji Nai's reason was. But no matter how Kangxi asked, Ji Nai refused to tell him. In the end, this idiot caused trouble for him.
"What did you say?" Kangxi held his forehead. He was really pissed off by Ji Nai. His emotions fluctuated so much that day that Kangxi really had a headache.
Ji Nai felt guilty and begged Kangxi for mercy, saying, "I didn't expect the Queen and Concubine Zhang to suddenly attack, so I made a hasty plan in a hurry."
"So you didn't think about how to end it before you acted impulsively, or was your original plan to let me help you clean up the mess?"
Ji Nai's eyes were wandering, and Kangxi knew very well that the idiot in front of him was doing it on purpose.
"Alas, there is nothing I can do. It will take more than ten days to explain the reason."
Kangxi was really convinced. He never thought that Ji Nai would be so unreasonable. Wasn't she afraid of getting into trouble in the end? Kangxi seriously doubted whether Ji Nai's reason for hiding it was true.
"Have you ever thought about what you would do if I am unwilling to help you?"
"Your Majesty, are you willing to do this? Are you willing to let this concubine become infamous?"
Okay, Kangxi really couldn’t bear to do it.
On the second day, news came from the Zhongcui Palace that the side hall was going to be renovated. It was said that it was the Emperor himself who ordered it so as not to mistreat his daughter.
If Ma Jia had not stopped him, the Emperor would have planned to renovate it, but in the end he was worried that it would take too long, so he gave up.
When the news came out, Concubine Zhang was so regretful that she thought the emperor loved the princess so much. So she struggled desperately to keep the little princess by her side. After all, this child was her only hope.
In this way, Ji Nai spent two days cleaning up the bedroom, and also wasted two or three days arguing with Concubine Zhang.
Finally, the Queen could no longer sit still and asked directly, "When does Sister Ma Jia plan to take the little princess to Zhongcui Palace? It has been several days. After all, it was His Majesty's wish, so we can't delay it any further."
What the Queen meant was that if Ji Nai delayed any further, it would mean that he was not taking Kangxi's will to heart and was being disrespectful to him?
