Rong Fei is not honored
Chapter 38: Successive Favors
Ji Nai hugged Kangxi's head and kissed him back, saying guiltily: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said these words to hurt your heart, and I shouldn't have doubted your feelings for the child."
Under the control of sadness and guilt, the two rolled together again, venting their emotions. After stopping panting, the two no longer called the palace servants to come in to wash, and just hugged each other tightly.
Ji Nai looked up at the expression on Kangxi's face and knew that he was still bothered by what she had just said about the death of his child. She comforted him, "Your Majesty, I was too excited just now. Now that I think about it carefully, everything in the dream was definitely false." Kangxi glanced at her and said nothing.
"Really, I just remembered that in that dream, my four children died young." When saying this, Ji Nai's voice trembled a little.
Kangxi felt even more uncomfortable after hearing this. Just when he wanted to ask her to stop talking, he heard Ji Nai continue, "Many people ridiculed me, saying that I gave birth to one child and one died. Even though you didn't say anything in the dream, I could feel that you felt that way, because after this, you never doted on me again, and you didn't want me to have another child."
Ji Nai cried in grievance. "Asshole." Kangxi was so angry that he yelled at her. How could he treat Ji Nai like this, especially after she lost her sons one after another.
"That's why I said it was fake. How could His Majesty treat me like this?"
"Yeah." Kangxi felt that what Ji Nai said was right. It couldn't be true. How could he treat Ji Nai and their child like this? The two future new parents clung to each other for warmth.
Before going to bed, Ji Nai was upset. He shouldn't have mentioned these things. It was useless except for making a scene. But this was just Ji Nai's idea. At least for Kangxi, it sounded a wake-up call for him, making him realize that not only the former dynasty, but also the harem needed to manage their own power.
He must not let what happened in Ji Nai's dream happen. When he thought of the heartbreaking words that one child would die if he was born, Kangxi felt heartbroken. He then secretly vowed to protect the children in the palace and never tolerate any behavior that would harm the heir. This led to Kangxi beginning to pay attention to the safety of the heir before any concubine in the palace became pregnant.
Such an attitude would also affect the concubines in the harem, who would at least think twice before attacking the heir to the throne. Unlike in the previous life, those people were so bold because they were busy with the affairs of the previous dynasty and ignored the harem. Among the princes ranked before Yinzhi, only Yinzhi, who was sent out of the palace to be raised, and Yinreng, who was canonized as the crown prince at birth, survived.
Ji Nai originally thought that Kangxi would not come again after two days of favoring him, but after staying in the Qianqing Palace for a day, he turned over the sign of the Zhongcui Palace for several days in a row. In fact, Kangxi also planned this at the beginning, but he was scared by Ji Nai's dream. Perhaps the impression was too deep, and he began to have such dreams at night.
The dream was so desperate and suffocating, but he couldn't remember anything when he woke up. He couldn't tell others, and the Imperial Observatory didn't know what he dreamed about, and couldn't do anything about it. He felt at ease only when he was with Ji Nai, and he felt that what Ji Nai felt must be more difficult to accept than himself, so he had to stay and comfort Ji Nai.
If Yuan Xu knew Kangxi's thoughts, he would definitely complain. Is that because he feels at ease? Every time you come, you sweat a lot and have to ask for water at least two or three times. How can you not sleep well after going to bed?
Ji Nai could clearly feel that other people's eyes were looking at him more and more unfriendly. Even the Queen became impetuous. On this day, when paying her respects, she directly said that she wanted to advise the Emperor to be fair and just.
Nonsense, matters like this are naturally decided by His Majesty, and it is impossible for a mere concubine like me to persuade him. Besides, I don't believe that if something like this happened to someone else, they would be willing to push it aside.
The reason why these people echoed the queen's words was because they were the ones who benefited instead of the ones who lost. As for why the queen said such things, it was naturally because she could not sleep with him now, so she could talk without any pain in her waist. Rather than letting everyone receive the favor, she was more worried that someone would be favored by Kangxi.
Seeing that Ji Nai didn't respond at all, everyone was angry and anxious, but there was nothing they could do about her.
Concubine Nara suddenly asked, "Should we go pay our respects to the Grand Empress Dowager?" This made no sense. They had only been sitting there for a while and it was still early for them to pay their respects to the Grand Empress Dowager. Why was she bringing this up now? It made Concubine Nara seem very filial.
Empress Hesheli's eyes flashed. Yes, there was also the Empress Dowager. She hated to see anyone being favored, so she said gently, "That's right. The time is almost up. Let's go quickly." Then she stood up.
Ji Nai naturally knew what they were planning, but it was impossible for her to avoid their favor.
Yuan Xu was a little worried, but Ji Nai comforted her that with the favor she had enjoyed in the past few days, she would not be tempted to attract the Empress Dowager to take action against her.
Sure enough, after the Queen brought a group of concubines to pay their respects to the Grand Empress Dowager, the Grand Empress Dowager first spoke a few words to the Queen, and then asked about the situation of concubine Borjigit, and did not pay any attention to Majiajinai at all.
This was not what the Queen wanted to see, so she quickly turned the topic to Ji Nai, "Speaking of which, my granddaughter-in-law had heard long before she entered the palace that there was a fairy-like woman in the palace. Later, when she saw Concubine Ma Jia, she was stunned by her beauty. No wonder His Majesty likes her so much."
The Grand Empress Dowager looked at the Queen meaningfully. The Queen was really smart. She had learned how to kill someone with a borrowed knife, and she could even say it so obscurely. Even if the Emperor knew later that she had punished Ma Jia, she would not be implicated.
However, the Empress Dowager really wanted to meet this concubine Ma Jia. She only vaguely remembered that the child was very plump when she first entered the palace, and she praised her for being blessed. Later, she opened her eyes because of her reputation for beauty and the emperor's favor. She was a gentle woman like Dong Efei and Hai Lanzhu. Because she didn't like her and she soon became silent, she forgot about her.
"Ma Jia, come forward and let me see you." Ji Nai responded and walked forward to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager was startled by Ji Nai's appearance for a moment. Looking at her face, it was as if she saw the shadow of an old friend, and she frowned instinctively. However, the child had a smile on her face and had no intention of concealing her beauty at all.
This is very different from the other two. They have always been weak. Even though they were favored by the emperor with absolute power, they still looked pitiful, as if they had suffered a great injustice. But in fact, those who dared to bully the emperor's beloved would have been punished long ago, at least on the surface.
But this concubine Ma Jia was very interesting. She knew very well that she was most afraid of being favored alone, but even after being favored for several days in a row, she still dared to smile in front of him and had no intention of hiding her appearance at all.
Everyone was gloating as they saw that Ma Jiajinai had not been called up yet. The next second, they heard the Empress Dowager say, "Good boy, you are really good looking. It turns out that what I said back then was right."
"The Empress Dowager said that Concubine Ma Jia was blessed, and that was exactly the case. It was also because the feng shui of the Forbidden City was good for people. The rumor is indeed true."
Su Malagu was reminding the Empress Dowager that the rumors about Concubine Ma Jia's appearance had brought glory to the royal family. So no matter how others dealt with Ma Jia, for the sake of the interests of the Aisin Gioro family, they could not be allowed to attack her based on her appearance.
