Rong Fei is not honored

Chapter 276: Princess 3 is in trouble

Something flashed in Ji Nai's eyes, and then she said tentatively: "Yesterday, I sent someone to report this matter, and I thought the Queen Mother would be mentally prepared. It happened that I got up late last night because I was worried that Chengrui did not sleep well."

The Empress Dowager was stunned when she heard what Ji Nai said. How come she didn't know about it when he had told her yesterday? Just as she was about to speak, the nanny beside her stopped her calmly.

The maid smiled and asked, "The master was heartbroken when he saw the little prince crying, so he sent people to Zhongcui Palace to look for you and Prince Chengrui. How come you didn't know about it?"

Ji Nai looked confused, but snorted in her heart. Oh, she was really good. If she hadn't realized that the Queen Mother's words were not right and had not deliberately diverted the topic, no matter how well she behaved today, she would have been branded as disrespectful and unkind to the Queen Mother.

The nanny who was speaking smiled and smoothed over the matter, "Perhaps the two groups of people got lost." But everyone knew that this was impossible, and there must be something fishy going on.

Even the Queen Mother, who didn't understand what they were talking about, sensed something was wrong, and her long experience made her shut up and stop talking. At this point, she hadn't figured anything out yet, and the more she said, the more mistakes she would make.

Ji Nai pretended to know nothing. She asked someone to bring a glass of water, and using the cover of her sleeve, she added a drop of spiritual liquid into it and then fed it to Saiyin Chahun.

In fact, it was not necessary to add spiritual liquid, but Ji Nai was worried that Saiyin Chahun would hurt his throat after crying for so long, so she added a drop anyway. Anyway, she had fed Saiyin Chahun a lot of spiritual liquid before, and the child could bear it.

Saiyinchahun seemed to know that what his mother fed him was good stuff, or perhaps it was because the water with the spiritual liquid was sweet and delicious. Saiyinchahun was reluctant when he first drank it, but later he wished he could hold the cup himself.

This scene surprised the Empress Dowager very much. Saiyinchahun never liked drinking plain water, probably because he thought it was tasteless. He only liked to drink milk and the like.

After thinking about it, the Queen Mother guessed that Saiyinchahun had been crying for too long and was thirsty, but he still refused to give up and did not stop until he saw his mother. What a stubborn child.

The Queen Mother looked at Saiyinchahun with pity and love.

Just when the atmosphere was just right, a few faint cries were suddenly heard. Although they disappeared quickly, Ji Nai still heard them clearly. She knew that the owner of the cries was probably the Third Princess.

I had no intention of paying attention to it, but suddenly I had a bad feeling in my heart. Why did the crying sound like something was wrong with the Third Princess?

Ji Nai first told Yuan Xu to go and take a look, then smiled and said to the Empress Dowager: "Was it the Third Princess who was crying just now?"

"Should it be?" The Queen Mother looked at the nanny beside her uncertainly.

"Master Rongpin is right. It is the Third Princess. Her health is not good, so her cry is weak, not as powerful as the little prince's."

Ji Nai looked at the reactions of the master and servant, especially the indifference on the face of the nanny beside the Empress Dowager, which was completely different from the anxiety and distress she had shown when Saiyinchahun cried before. He knew the situation of the Third Princess in Shoukang Palace.

Ji Nai's heart was beating fast. The Third Princess was only the adopted daughter of Kangxi. With such an identity, if something happened in the palace, it would definitely cause quite a stir, especially since everyone knew the purpose of Kangxi's adoption of her.

Although it is now a feudal dynasty with imperial power supreme and distinctions between the high and the low, Ji Nai climbed up from the bottom and had experienced glory and desolation. Naturally, he knows that not all slaves are servile and fear the imperial power.

If the owner of Shoukang Palace doesn't care about the Third Princess, then one can imagine what kind of situation she, the daughter of a prince, will be in in this harem full of rich and powerful people.

Ji Nai deliberately tapped Saiyinchahun's nose with his finger and said softly, "It's because you cried too loudly. Did you scare your sister?"

Saiyin Chahun didn't understand what his mother meant, and thought she was playing with him, so he started to giggle. The child's innocent smile was very contagious, and the empress dowager also laughed.

Only the nanny beside the Empress Dowager frowned. What did Rongpin mean by this? Why did she bring up the Third Princess for no reason? Did she really bring it up because she heard her crying?

It has to be said that people in the harem like to overcomplicate things. This nanny had already imagined that Kangxi thought Shoukang Palace neglected the Third Princess, so she used Rongpin's mouth to remind him.

That shouldn't be the case, right? The master really didn't like the Third Princess very much, but that was because the Third Princess was always sick. For the sake of the master's health, the servants around the Third Princess didn't dare to let the two get close.

They didn't see each other for a day, so how could they have any feelings even if they lived together? But in terms of food, clothing and daily expenses, the master was no less than the third lady, and sometimes she even subsidized him from her own private storehouse.

But the more the nanny thought about it, the more guilty she felt, because she found that she seemed to pay too little attention to the Third Princess and could not even pat her chest and guarantee with absolute certainty that the Third Princess would live well in Shoukang Palace.

It was clear that after the Third Princess came to Shoukang Palace, the Empress Dowager had specifically reminded her that the Third Princess's safety was of great importance, concerning the previous dynasty and the relationship between the Emperor and his brothers, and asked her to take good care of the Third Princess.

But since when did she forget such an important thing?

Soon, Yuan Xu came back. She said to Ji Nai in a rage, "Ji Nai, do you know what those beasts are doing? They are covering the mouth of the Third Princess to prevent her from crying. The child's face is flushed red!"

Ji Nai was startled, and then said to the Empress Dowager: "The Third Princess has always been in poor health, and I don't know if this will have a big impact. In the end, it is Saiyin Chahun's fault. I feel uneasy, so I want to go see the Third Princess."

Before the Empress Dowager could say anything, Nanny An hurriedly said, "The Third Princess is ill. What if you are infected with the disease and pass it on to Prince Chengrui or the younger prince?"

Ji Nai was stunned. He did not expect that he would be stopped.

Nanny An took the opportunity to say, "Why don't I go and take a look for you?"

"Okay." Ji Nai thought that he had made too much of a fuss in the past, and those people might have noticed it in advance. If he wasn't caught in the act, the Third Princess would suffer in the future.

When Nanny An saw that Concubine Rong did not insist any longer, she felt relieved and thought to herself that maybe she was overthinking it and that Concubine Rong was really just concerned about the Third Princess.

But that's true. Rongpin has always been cautious. Maybe she was just worried that the little prince's crying might cause trouble for the third princess and give her something to hold against her.

But since the words had been spoken, Nanny An naturally had to make this trip. As if possessed by some mysterious force, Nanny An lightened her footsteps and slowly approached the Third Lady's room.

But then she heard the voice of a palace maid coming from inside, "Mammy, let the Third Princess go. Her face has turned purple."

"Let go, that sounds so easy to you. What if the Third Princess starts crying and alarms the masters?"

"You can't keep covering it up. If you go on like this, something bad will really happen. Besides, even if it cries, that child won't cry." The maid who was speaking was so anxious that she was about to cry.

"What do you know? Everyone knows that Rongpin is a soft-hearted person who loves children the most. However, in order to save the baby in Huipin's belly, she was disfigured by the Queen.

What if the Third Princess cries too loudly and is heard by Concubine Rong? What if she comes over out of pity? Don’t forget that you have taken a lot of things from this room.”

boom!

The door of the room was pushed open. The Third Princess's wet nurse was startled and turned around to yell, but she saw the dark face of Nanny An beside the Empress Dowager.

The nurses and maids in the room all knelt down with weak legs, with only one thought in their minds: it's over!

Nanny An quickly stepped forward, uncovered the wet nurse who was covering San Gege's body, and then picked up San Gege to check on her condition. Fortunately, apart from the obvious palm print on her face, San Gege was fine, and her purple complexion gradually improved.

Nanny An breathed a sigh of relief, but she also felt murderous intent and fear in her heart. If she hadn't witnessed this scene, what would have happened to the Third Princess... Nanny An couldn't even imagine it.

Unexpectedly, at this time, the daring wet nurse actually dared to come forward and said to Nanny An in a flattering manner: "Oh, how can I trouble you to hold her?" As she said that, she wanted to take the Third Princess.
