Rong Fei is not honored

Ji Nai really thought that his daughter was pretty good, at least in his previous life he loved his own Rong Xian the most. It was a pity that the child was unlucky and ended up in his belly.

Rongxian was born in the 12th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign. At that time, there were already rumors in the harem that Ji Nai had given birth to a son. In fact, when Ji Nai learned that the baby was a daughter, he was relieved.

She knew that her child's death was suspicious, but the status of Ji Nai was much different from that man, and the other man was protected by Kangxi. In the end, she could do nothing and could only silently endure the pain of losing her child.

Under such circumstances, Rongxian was born. After that, she gave birth to children for three consecutive years, and finally lost them one after another. It was this daughter, who was still young and ignorant, who always accompanied her.

In her childhood, when she should have been loved by her parents, she was treated coldly by her father and ignored by her mother. Instead, she had to comfort her exhausted mother. When she grew up, Ji Nai had already gone insane and was only concerned about protecting her youngest son.

Perhaps it was because he knew that Rongxian, as a princess, would not encounter too much danger, perhaps it was because he knew that Yinzhi was Kangxi's last kindness to him, or perhaps it was because he knew that the child was the most sensible, so Ji Nai enjoyed his daughter's efforts with peace of mind.

It was not until the 30th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign that Rongxian was betrothed to Urgun of the Borjigit clan of the Balin tribe of Mongolia south of the Gobi Desert. Only then did Ji Nai realize his debt to the child, but it was too late.

Poor child, this child lost her husband, children, father and mother one after another, and finally passed away the second year after Ji Nai's death.

(There is no clear record of the year of death of Princess Rongxian's son Linbu, but in 1972, the tomb of Princess Gulun Rongxian was excavated, and an urn was placed on the south and east sides of her coffin, containing the ashes of her husband Wuergun and the princess's son Linbu respectively.)

It was no good. Thinking of that child, Ji Nai wanted to cry. If he continued to think about it, Ji Nai would burst into tears in Kunning Palace.

"Preferring sons over daughters."

[What?] Ji Nai, who had just come back to his senses from his own thoughts, heard Yuan Xu's voice and was unable to react for a moment to what she was saying.

"It seems that it has been the same since ancient times. Even in the most enlightened times, there will be people who only treat their sons as treasures. What, is there a throne in the family that needs to be inherited?"

Then Yuan Xu came to his senses again and said listlessly, "Okay, your family really has a throne to inherit."

Ji Nai comforted Yuan Xu, "This is different. Not everyone in the Qing Dynasty has such stubborn ideas. In the end, it is driven by interests. The throne is one of them, but more importantly, it is not easy to be a princess of the Qing Dynasty."

"Because you want to marry far away?"

[Yes, because of the policy of pacifying Mongolia, the princesses of the Qing Dynasty were generally married to the grasslands. If you know the history of this area, you will know that many princesses died of illness at an early age.

So rather than saying that the concubines in the palace did not like to give birth to daughters, it would be better to say that they were afraid of suffering the pain of separation and death in the future.

Moreover, after the death of an emperor, the new emperor would usually show favor and allow concubines with sons to take them out of the palace to live in luxury. But this was limited to sons. Anyway, I have never seen an example of a princess taking the concubines of the previous emperor. 】

Perhaps it was because Ji Nai just thought of Rong Xian, so he was a little depressed, and then he tried to comfort Yuan Xu. In the eyes of others, Ji Nai was hit in the sore spot by the Queen, and he was just being stubborn just now.

For a moment, everyone was like mice smelling oil, and they all started hinting that Ji Nai was pregnant with a daughter. They wanted to stimulate Ji Nai and hoped that Ji Nai would have a miscarriage.

But Ji Nai was not affected at all. She was not disappointed even if it was a daughter. Moreover, Ji Nai knew that the child was her Saiyin Chahun.

However, Ji Nai's thoughts drifted away as everyone talked. If he became his daughter, Ji Nai imagined Sai Yinchahun wearing a Manchu dress and combing her hair into a bun. Goose bumps appeared on his skin. He quickly forgot such a terrible picture.

The main reason was that Saiyin Chahun looked, well, very much like a man from the Mongolian grasslands. Even though he had not had time to grow up yet, one could tell at a glance. This was why the Empress Dowager loved the child so much that she even gave him a name without going through Emperor Kangxi herself.

If she really became a princess, even if the emperor's daughter had no trouble finding a husband, Ji Nai would still be worried. Moreover, if she gave birth to a daughter, would she still be her own Saiyin Chahun?

Everyone realized that they had been talking for a long time, but Ji Nai didn't respond at all. He was distracted all the time, and they couldn't help but feel a little angry. A concubine said sarcastically: "Sister Ma Jia is pregnant again, so she doesn't take me and others seriously?"

"what?"

Ji Nai looked like she was not in the right situation, which made the concubine who was talking very angry. She really didn't take herself seriously at all. It's just that she is pregnant, what's the big deal.

In fact, Ji Nai heard what the other party said, but she did it on purpose. These people, do they think that he is not aware of their little thoughts? The malice is almost rushing to Ji Nai's face. Only a fool will be fooled.

The concubine was still unwilling to give in, and forced a smile, saying, "I mean, Sister Ma Jia has become even more beautiful since she got pregnant. It is said that a mother with an ugly son will have a beautiful daughter. It seems that your baby will be a caring little princess."

"Really?" Before Ji Nai could say anything, the Queen asked with great interest whether what the concubine said was true.

"Your Highness, this is of course true. My mother was like that at the beginning. Because I thought it was strange, I went to investigate among the people. It is true that there is such a saying."

"I didn't expect that what I said would come true. Our little princess is really going to have another sister."

The more the Queen and others thought about it, the more they felt that the statement was true. Look at Ma Jia, her face is as rosy as a peach, her skin is as white as jade, and there is no sign of haggardness caused by the hardships of pregnancy.

At this time, everyone ignored that when Ji Nai was pregnant with Cheng Rui, she was also so beautiful. At that time, there were concubines who were jealous of Ji Nai and secretly said that she was a fox spirit, otherwise how could she be more and more beautiful.

"I already have a prince, it would be nice if this one is a princess, so that we can have a good name."

Everyone who was originally happy froze their faces, especially the concubines who had no children. Yes, Ma Jia already had a prince, even if this baby was a daughter, she would have left them behind, so why were they so happy?

Ji Nai didn't want these people to always focus on him, so he changed the subject, "Your Majesty, speaking of the little princess, the eldest princess is indeed pitiful, so please be more merciful to her."

The queen was a little unhappy. Was Ma Jia going to use the little princess to slander her? She knew that the people in the palace could not really be obedient. The way Ma Jia behaved in the past was all pretended, just like Nara.
