Rong Fei is not honored
Chapter 212: Drama Contest
Seeing Kangxi caressing his belly lovingly, Ji Nai said casually, "However, it's no wonder that Your Majesty feels bad for him. Prince Chenghu has indeed had a very hard life.
Even if a poor family were to take the imperial examination, they would not exploit a child who is not even old enough to learn how to read. I don’t know what the queen is thinking. Isn’t she afraid of harming Chenghu’s health?”
Kangxi paused. These days he was worried about Chenghu and wanted to separate him from the Queen. That day he was hurt by Chenghu's reaction and left in anger, but he never investigated why the Queen was so cruel to Chenghu.
Now, after hearing Ji Nai's words, he realized what the queen was thinking. Kangxi sneered, Chenghu was only a five-year-old kid, and the queen was so anxious that she hoped she would die.
(In the Qing Dynasty, the age was calculated based on the lunar calendar. A child was one year old at birth and another year old during the Chinese New Year. Therefore, Chenghu is only three years old now.)
Ji Nai sensed that something was wrong with Kangxi, so he deliberately distorted Kangxi's meaning and said, "Your Majesty, what is this expression? Are you unhappy because I heard you say bad things about the Queen?
But I have always been at odds with the Queen. As long as Chengrui doesn’t get better, I will never be able to reconcile with the Queen. So even if Your Majesty is unhappy, I will not change. "
Kangxi thought it was funny. He hadn't said anything yet, but Ji Nai was so angry. However, she looked really cute. Kangxi hadn't seen Ji Nai act like a little girl in the daytime for a long time.
Kangxi admired her for a long time, and before Ji Nai was about to get angry, he spoke to comfort her, "I know that the Queen has gone too far, and it is natural for you to resent her. I have never thought of letting you reconcile with the Queen.
But the queen is the queen after all, she should at least cover up a little, don't be stupid and show it outside, so that people can find fault with it. "
Ji Nai rolled her eyes and said, "Of course I know, but I'm afraid that His Majesty will soften his heart because of Prince Chenghu and forgive the Empress."
"I didn't." Kangxi looked like he was saying, "Don't accuse me."
"Humph! Just now when I mentioned the Queen's faults, your face darkened. Aren't you angry with me?"
Kangxi could see that Ji Nai was taking advantage of his behavior to make a fuss. Kangxi took Ji Nai into his arms, deliberately lifted Ji Nai's chin, and jokingly said, "You are jealous."
Ji Nai was silent. In the past, Kangxi always called her by her maiden name. This was the first time she heard such a disgusting name. Ji Nai did not feel shy, but felt a little disgusted instead.
"Your Highness..." Ji Nai wanted to stop Kangxi from going on, but Kangxi pressed his index finger against his lips.
"My beloved concubine, you don't need to say it. I know what you mean. Don't worry, I only have you in my heart. There is no room for anyone else."
Ji Nai was going crazy. She was wrong. She shouldn't have played tricks on Kangxi just because she had a good relationship with him in this life. These words could warm up the relationship behind the curtains, but it was extremely embarrassing to say them in broad daylight.
Yuan Xu, who was standing by, felt that she could dig out a Forbidden City with her toes. It was all her own fault. She had said many domineering quotes to Ji Nai just for fun, but she didn't expect Ji Nai to be so shameless when he was with Kangxi.
As a result, a door to a new world was opened for Kangxi. It was obvious that Kangxi was better than his teacher, and now Ji Nai had to suffer from Kangxi's abuse.
It's all your fault! This was said not only about Yuan Xu, but also about Ji Nai.
Ji Nai's face turned red with embarrassment, and he quickly stopped Kangxi, hinting with his eyes that this was not the right occasion and how could he say such words at this time and place.
However, Kangxi was still the most coquettish. He pretended not to understand Ji Nai's meaning and continued to play his own role, which made all the servants stunned.
Especially Liang Jiugong, as one of the people who knew Kangxi best, he looked at the completely unfamiliar master in front of him, and his heart was filled with turmoil.
Could it be that His Majesty is possessed by an evil spirit?
In fact, if you look closely, you can find that Kangxi's ears were red, but other people did not dare to look directly at the emperor, and Ji Nai missed this truth because he was distracted.
Not long after Yuan Xu could no longer hold on and dodged, Ji Nai could no longer bear it. She begged for mercy and begged Kangxi to stop. If he didn't stop, she was afraid that she would be traumatized.
If it really leaves a shadow, she probably won't be able to stand up even if she finds a suitable occasion in the future. Wouldn't that mean she will lose a lot of benefits?
After all this fuss, Ji Nai lay exhausted in Kangxi's arms, not only physically tired but also mentally tired.
Kangxi held Ji Nai with one hand and gently stroked Ji Nai's shoulder with the other hand. He first signaled Liang Jiugong and everyone else to leave, and then bent down and kissed Ji Nai's forehead.
These days, because he was concerned about Chenghu's health, he often went to Kunning Palace. Therefore, the rumor that the queen had regained favor spread in the palace, and Kangxi, who was gradually controlling the harem, was not completely unaware of this matter.
But Kangxi didn't clarify whether he called the child by that name out of pity, but let the harem speculate. He didn't expect that Ji Nai would also be affected, but it's no wonder, even if Ji Nai believed in himself, his recent behavior was too easy to be misunderstood.
Rather than saying that Ji Nai was deliberately taking advantage of the situation today, it would be more accurate to say that Kangxi was just being unreasonable. After this incident, Ji Nai's anger was gone.
"Since Chenghu cannot leave his mother, I will not force him. But since he has made his choice, he should bear the consequences. In the future, even if Chenghu gets sick again because of this, I will not bother him anymore."
This was Kangxi's real thoughts. He loved his child, but he also knew that the problem was not with Chenghu. As long as he did not leave the Queen, Chenghu would not get better. So, what did it matter if he went to Kunning Palace often to visit him?
It's just treating the symptoms and not the root cause.
What? Ji Nai didn't react for a moment, and then he realized that this was Kangxi explaining to him that he didn't intend to let the queen go, and it was also to reassure himself.
Although Ji Nai did not misunderstand and never placed all her hopes on Kangxi, since Kangxi had promised, there was no need for her to dirty her hands.
Besides, the Queen killed Chengqing. Given Nara's character, she would definitely retaliate. But no one knows who she will target, the Queen, or... Chenghu.
If it was the former, it would be fine. But if it was the latter, I am afraid that Kangxi would change his mind at that time. After all, although Chengrui was injured, Chenghu died young. Both of them were his children, and the queen did pay a price.
However, Ji Nai was not afraid. By that time, many things had already gotten out of control. It was not possible for Kangxi to stop this cause and effect just because he wanted to.
