Rong Fei is not honored

After the three of them sat down, the Grand Empress Dowager asked with concern, "Rongpin looks very bad. Could it be that the heir is not well? Have you asked the imperial physician to take a look?"

Ji Nai covered the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, then explained with a smile: "The child is fine, thank you for your concern, Empress Dowager. The imperial physician has examined it and said that both the concubine and the heir are fine, but the pregnancy reaction this time is a little strong, but it's all normal."

"That's good." The Empress Dowager breathed a sigh of relief. Even if she disliked Ma Jia, she still cared about the child in her belly. Especially since Ma Jia looked like a blessed person who was suitable for giving birth to a boy. Who knows, this might be another prince, and also Saiyin Chahun's biological brother.

She smiled and joked, "This child is very troublesome. It's obvious that he is not as well-behaved as Chengrui and Saiyinchahun. Who knows, he might be another naughty prince."

What the Empress Dowager said was a bit biased. Chengrui was really well-behaved. From pregnancy to delivery, she never let Ji Nai suffer. As for Saiyinchahun, although he did not make Ji Nai suffer as much as this pregnancy, he still tormented Ji Nai for a long time.

Even after he was born, Saiyin Chahun's behavior in Shoukang Palace was not related to the word "well-behaved". It was just that the Empress Dowager was close to the children raised by her, so she had a particularly strong filter for Saiyin Chahun.

But Ji Nai couldn't tell the truth. After all, he was her son, so how could she say anything bad about him in front of outsiders? So she just smiled and said, "I think this is a spoiled princess."

"Princess?" The princesses in this palace were not as noble as the princes, and it was not known whether Ma Jia said this sincerely or falsely. But the Empress Dowager changed her mind and felt that a princess was good. A princess born to a favorite concubine had two brothers to support her. If she could marry into Mongolia, then she would not have to worry about the Qing Dynasty becoming estranged from Khorchin after her death.

"It's not bad to be a princess. You and the emperor already have two princes. It would be perfect if you have a son and a daughter."

The Empress Dowager's attitude changed quickly, but Kangxi and Ji Nai both understood what the other party was up to. In order to prevent the Empress Dowager from saying anything that would embarrass him, Kangxi took the initiative to change the subject, "You are the assistant manager of the harem, what do you think about the eldest princess's matter?"

Kangxi's meaning was very clear. Since you are in charge of the affairs of the harem, and the affairs of the eldest princess are also the affairs of the harem, you must handle them well, otherwise it would be dereliction of duty. For a moment, Huipin and Dong Shufei looked unhappy. The affairs of the eldest princess were not easy to handle.

Especially Concubine Dong, she has a princess. What if the Emperor and the Empress Dowager think that she has the experience in taking care of princesses and push this hot potato onto her?

Kangxi did not want to embarrass them, so he immediately asked Liang Jiugong to repeat the conversation he had just had with the eldest princess.

As expected, Ji Nai started to feel nauseous again after hearing the word "mother". He took a few drops of spiritual liquid while drinking water, and only then did he suppress the discomfort.

Kangxi looked at Ji Nai, whose face had turned even paler and tears were still hanging from the corners of her eyes, and knew that she was feeling unwell again, but was just trying to hold it back. He couldn't hold it back any longer, so he said distressedly, "If Rongpin is feeling unwell, she should go back first."

After Kangxi said this, everyone realized that Rongpin's condition was indeed not good. Huipin and Dong Shufei were immediately worried. If Rongpin left again, the matter of the eldest princess would fall on them alone.

Fortunately, Ji Nai spoke up in time: "It's fine for me. I've already declined many palace duties because I'm pregnant. This time, it concerns the future of the eldest princess, so how can I be absent again?"

In fact, Ji Nai didn't want to stay, but she just didn't want to get involved in palace affairs now, and didn't want to leave an impression of being incompetent in the harem.

These words really made Huipin and Dong Shufei feel relieved, but they also made Kangxi's face look even uglier.

Ji Nai was just a little bit bored. Kangxi radiated coldness towards himself, and then said, "Children always have a special attachment to their mother. Perhaps it was because those palace servants talked about their mother that the eldest princess also began to be curious about her mother."

"That's right." Huipin reacted after hearing Ji Nai's words and continued, "It's just that what Zhang did in the past was too much... His Majesty's attitude was clear, and the palace people didn't dare to mention the criminal, so the eldest princess didn't know what kind of person her mother was and how she treated her."

Of course, neither Ji Nai nor Huipin said anything stupid like “How does the eldest princess know that she is not the Queen’s biological daughter?”

Even though the eldest princess was still young when she was taken to Kunning Palace, there were always servants who were talkative. Moreover, the empress's behavior was not like that of a real mother.

But the eldest princess really once regarded the queen as her own mother.

Ever since she began to have vague and fragmented memories, she has been staying in Kunning Palace. Although she cannot see "Er Niang", isn't "Er Niang" also very strict to her younger brother (Chenghu)?

Moreover, the maids and servants served her attentively, and her food, clothing, housing and transportation were all taken care of with great care. If she were not the daughter of "Emother", how could she have been treated like this?

But a long-awaited meeting shattered the princess's dream.

Even though she was still young at that time, the eldest princess could still remember the scene clearly. She opened her arms and happily wanted to throw herself into the arms of her "mother", but the other party just chuckled and asked the nanny to take her away.

Since then, the eldest princess never left her room again. She made a fuss about this, but the nanny just said, "It was the Queen's order."

The eldest princess was still young at that time and did not understand the meaning of "mother's" laughter at all. She just felt very sad and upset.

But from then on, from the subtle expressions of the maids and the whispers away from her, the eldest princess accepted the fact that "mother" was not her mother, she was only her younger brother's mother.

No wonder, although the Queen was strict with her brother, there was love in her eyes; even when she spoke harshly, it was because she was disappointed in her brother.

But the look she gave him was cold, and the chuckle she made expressed mockery, alienation, disgust, and pity for her overestimation of her own abilities.

The eldest princess felt very uncomfortable, but as an unloved child, she didn't even have the courage to cry. She could only pretend that she knew nothing, curled up in a corner, and reduced her presence.

Therefore, the conversation among the palace maids that day was just the fuse. In fact, the eldest princess had begun to be curious about her biological mother a long time ago.

She thought that if it was her biological mother, she would definitely like her. Even if she treated her badly, she would still love her very much in her heart, just like the Queen Mother.

Even though the adults didn't know the eldest princess's psychological changes, they more or less understood the child's attachment to her mother, but this was really difficult to deal with.

All the things Zhang did at the beginning were extremely hateful. Such a person only regarded her own children as tools to win favor from the very beginning. She even attacked her own flesh and blood just to get rid of a burden. She was worse than an animal.

Could it be that they still hope that these years of hardship will allow Zhang to change her ways and awaken her maternal love?

But they were reluctant to tell these concerns and what Zhang had done in the past to a child who had expectations of his biological mother, was still young, and had just suffered hardship.

In the eerie atmosphere, the eldest princess's originally bright eyes became dim, and she raised her head with great difficulty, but lowered it again.

Whether for his own plan or because he really felt sorry for the child, Ji Nai had to persuade him:

"After ten months of pregnancy and one day of childbirth, this blood bond is very difficult to sever.

It is natural for children to love their mothers. Even if the mother is partial to them or even doesn't love them at all, few children can just abandon this family relationship. Most of them have hope in their hearts. Even if they are covered in wounds, there is always a spark of hope in their hearts. "

With the experience of the Empress Dowager, she naturally knew that the world was full of strange things. There were ungrateful people who were unfilial to their parents, and naturally there were unkind parents, so she could understand what Concubine Rong said.

She felt pity for the eldest princess and followed suit, saying, "Yes, Rongpin is right. No matter what, it's not the eldest princess's fault. Unfortunately, the bitter fruit has to be borne by a child." As she spoke, she touched the corner of her eyes.
