Rong Fei is not honored

Chapter 17 Comforting Kangxi

It can only be said that Ji Nai appeared at a very good time. At that time, Kangxi was still a sunny and cheerful young man. Because of his father's early death, he was forced to grow up. He did not become extremely cunning, suspicious and ruthless, and had not yet transformed into a qualified emperor with a complex temperament. So Ji Nai easily walked into Kangxi's sight. Because of curiosity and because he found it interesting, he took people to heart. If it was the grown-up Kangxi, he would definitely lock his feelings tightly and would not let anyone have the opportunity to enter his heart.

According to Kangxi's observations during this period, Ji Nai was a pure-minded little girl who had not yet grown up. She was happy because of Liang Jiugong's embarrassment, and offended him because of her concern for her health. She felt from the bottom of her heart that she would be a good emperor. Unlike the ministers of the previous dynasty, who were too respectful on their faces, and were even unwilling to be serious and manage their expressions. Perhaps in their hearts, they were still just children who knew nothing, so it was not worth their effort to perfunctorily deal with them. One day...

Just like this, two people, one quietly thinking, the other silently accompanying. Just sitting on the steps, the dim moonlight shines on the two of them, brewing a harmonious atmosphere. Yuan Xu looked at the two people getting along, and couldn't help but have love in his eyes. At this moment, a hurried footsteps, accompanied by shouts of "Long live the Lord", broke this beautiful atmosphere.

Liang Jiugong and Nanny Chen ran to Kangxi with their people and stopped panting: "Your Highness, are you okay?" Liang Jiugong glanced at the quilt wrapped tightly around Kangxi and breathed a sigh of relief. "Your Highness, this little girl came to report that Ma Jia neglected her duty during the night watch, and when she found you again, you were gone. That's why I came with Nanny Chen to look for you."

The master is the master, and there is no need to explain anything to a servant. This is the iron rule in Liang Jiugong's mind. So even if he was anxious, he knew his limits in front of Kangxi. He did not ask Kangxi why he was here, but instead reported to Kangxi what he knew as soon as possible.

Wu Jiashi, who was standing behind, had a pale face. When she found that the emperor was missing, she realized that she had caused a big disaster. So when she saw Ji Nai, she subconsciously shirked her responsibility and even complained to Nanny Chen first, eager to clear herself of the relationship. But she forgot that once Kangxi was found, her lies would be exposed. Seeing Kangxi being found safely, Wu Jiashi regretted it. If she had known earlier, she would not have been in a hurry to find a scapegoat for herself. If the emperor was found secretly, as long as no one else was alerted, the matter could be quietly covered up.

However, they did not know that even so, Kangxi would not keep this person.

"I was upset and couldn't sleep, so I came out to relax. It happened that this servant was sleeping at that time, so I didn't bring anyone else out." Kangxi directly exposed Wu Jia's lie. He was upset at the time, so when he saw the little palace maid fell asleep while keeping watch, he didn't care, but it didn't mean that he would let her stay in the Qianqing Palace.

"This servant has failed to serve his master and has been full of lies. It is my fault for mismanagement. Please punish me, Your Majesty." Nanny Chen knelt down and begged for forgiveness.

Kangxi waved his hand and said, "What does it have to do with Nanny Chen? I'm tired, let's go back." The group escorted Kangxi back to the palace and went back to sleep. As for Wu Jiashi, she had already been covered with her mouth and dragged away. Seeing this, the coldness in Ji Nai's eyes disappeared. Since she dared to be lazy and sleep while keeping watch for the emperor, she was already a dead person.

The next day, the Empress Dowager heard about what happened last night and was furious. She ordered the palace maid who made the mistake to be beaten to death, and her family members were punished by imperial decree. Everyone in the Palace of Heavenly Purity was also beaten with a stick. In particular, the guards on duty in the Palace of Heavenly Purity last night, except for Ji Nai, were not beaten but rewarded. But no one envied Ji Nai, but was very grateful to her. If it weren't for Ji Nai, once something happened to Kangxi, the entire Palace of Heavenly Purity would be in danger, and the entire nine clans would be killed.

"The emperor is too young, which is why he allows these people to be so presumptuous." The Empress Dowager was not only talking about the palace maid, but also Oboi.

"Fortunately, a young palace maid found His Majesty in time. I heard that he was holding a thick quilt and wrapped him tightly. He didn't feel cold at all."

"You are still ignorant and don't even know how to notify anyone. It's the middle of the night. If something happens, what can your little body do?"

"He's still young, and he's worried about His Majesty, so he doesn't think things through." Only Su Malagu would dare to say this in front of the Empress Dowager. "If he really does things perfectly, that would make us worried."

"Too."

The Empress Dowager also said in Mongolian: "I heard that the little girl was praised by the Empress Dowager as being blessed. You are really good at judging people."

"It turned out to be that child." The Empress Dowager remembered the chubby little face.

After tonight, Nanny Chen arranged Ji Nai to stay by Kangxi's side, but did not ask her to do anything. Liang Jiugong was pleasantly surprised to find that as long as Ma Jia and Ji Nai were on duty, Kangxi's mood would be much better, and his position was finally saved.

That day, Kangxi dismissed everyone and left Ji Nai alone to complain to her about the court. He said a lot and finally said, "These people look at me and don't understand? They really underestimate me." Ji Nai painfully discovered that Kangxi treated her as a tree hole.

Although he was very happy to be trusted by Kangxi, he was really too long-winded. Why didn't he realize that Kangxi was a chatterbox when he was young? Ji Nai tried hard to pretend that he didn't understand what Kangxi was saying, but no matter what Kangxi said, he was indignant and said, how could they treat the emperor like this, it was too much!

Kangxi stopped talking until his mouth was dry, and he felt relieved. Although Ji Nai had no idea what was going on in the court, she tried her best to maintain her feelings, which made people feel it intuitively, which was really happy.

Suddenly Liang Jiugong rushed in, knelt down and said sadly: "Your Highness, the Queen Mother is critically ill." Kangxi's heart sank suddenly, and his body was swaying, as if a little unstable. Ji Nairou was quick to move forward and supported him, exclaiming: "Your Highness! Be careful." Kangxi was called back to his senses by this shout, and immediately went to Jingren Palace.

Kangxi looked at his mother, who was barely breathing on the sickbed, and couldn't help but burst into tears. In fact, he was raised by wet nurses since he was a child, and because he was not raised in his mother's palace, he was not close to her. But after all, they were biological mother and son, so how could there be no affection?

Moreover, with Consort Dong E around, my mother was not favored and had always been treated coldly in the emperor's harem. After he finally became the emperor, my mother could finally live a good life, but not long after, she fell ill again, and now she was leaving him.

Kangxi thought about his father, who was not close to him but was still trying hard to pave the way for him before his death, and his mother, who was about to leave him. He felt that he was the only one left in this world.
