Rong Fei is not honored

The Empress Dowager understood and said, "I also think it's not Suochuoro. I'm afraid they are trying to push the blame on Suochuoro, so they made up this story about the medicine being problematic."

"The maids in the Qianqing Palace don't have such courage. The problem should be with Rongpin and Zhaojia."

"Your Majesty, what you mean is that something went wrong with the people around me and they leaked the matter?" Ji Nai looked at Kangxi blankly.

Kangxi patted her comfortingly and said, "You were sick before, and I was a little worried, so I asked Wei Zhu to arrange someone to keep an eye on you at all times, and report to me immediately if anything is wrong.

If the servants around you were acting suspiciously, the people below would have reported it long ago."

"So it was Concubine Zhaojia and Concubine Yiergen Jueluo who teamed up to stage this drama? I just don't know if there are other people involved behind the scenes."

When Concubine Hui saw that Concubine Rong had spoken, she dared to find the right opportunity to speak up to show her presence.

Kangxi looked in the direction of the voice and found that Nara had knelt on the ground without him noticing. He frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"

Huipin was speechless. She knew that Kangxi didn't notice her at all, or he saw her at first but didn't take it to heart and quickly forgot about it.

The Empress Dowager seemed to have just remembered it and said:

"It was I who asked Huipin to stay. After all, there are only Rongpin and Huipin in the palace now, so naturally she should also understand the cause and effect of the matter.

I was so angry that I forgot you were still kneeling. Get up quickly."

Huipin stood up with a smile, not daring to show any dissatisfaction with the Empress Dowager.

Kangxi really ignored her, she believed it. After all, his lover had been wronged, so it was normal to be confused due to concern.

But if the Empress Dowager really forgot, she would eat her own brain. This old witch must have done it on purpose.

Although she still couldn't figure out what the Empress Dowager wanted to express, she firmly believed that there must be a deeper meaning behind it.

"Do you think that besides the Zhaojia clan and the Irgenjueluo clan, there are other people involved in this matter? Why?"

Huipin was confused by Kangxi's words. Why?

She just said it casually. Otherwise, if she continued to kneel, she would probably get rheumatoid arthritis. However, she definitely couldn't tell the truth.

"I just can't understand what Concubine Zhaojia and Concubine Yiergenjueluo are trying to do. What good will it do for them if something happens to Concubine Rong?"

This time it was Kangxi who was speechless. He thought Nara could say something insightful, but he didn't expect that it was just this?

Ji Nai's honor, palace power, and offspring, which one wouldn't make people jealous?

As long as she fell down, she could always scoop some into her bowl.

Instead, the Empress Dowager's eyes flickered. To be honest, among the women in the harem, Zhaojia and Irgen Jueluo did not have any advantage. Even if Majia fell, they would not be able to gain much benefit.

It's impossible that after all the efforts, all the benefits will be taken away by others. Can Zhaojia and Yiergenjueluo be so generous? Is there any other trick?

But since the Emperor had not thought of this, the Empress Dowager did not intend to remind him. After all, the matter of contraception would not develop as they expected, so there was no reason for her to say anything more.

“This matter is easy to handle, but it is also difficult to handle.

Even if the truth is told, those who believe it will probably think too much and damage the emperor's reputation, and those who don't believe it will only think that this is an excuse the emperor made to protect Rongpin."

Could the Empress Dowager not know that what she said was all nonsense? However, she did not propose a solution, but pointed out the problem again and again, just to remind Kangxi that the harem should not be without a master.

Even if he is unwilling to accept the candidate I recommend, he has to enthrone a new queen as soon as possible even if he chooses himself. Otherwise, there will be many more such incidents in the future, and the fighting in the harem will never stop. Does he, the emperor, have to deal with it every time?

Kangxi understood what the Empress Dowager meant, but what was before him now was the fact that Ji Nai was being plotted against. Even if he wanted to consider enthroning a new queen, there was no need to be so anxious.

He and Hesheli were strangers, and they were not deeply in love. He was obsessed with her and would not be discouraged by her death and not take another queen. So why was the Empress Dowager so anxious?

Ji Nai saw Kangxi's displeasure, took the initiative to hold his hand, and comforted him:

"In fact, in half a month, this matter will be resolved."

The three people present all looked towards Ji Nai. The first one to react was the Empress Dowager. She looked at Ji Nai in surprise, with excitement and disbelief in her eyes.

"You, are you, again?"

Ji Nai smiled and replied:

“Yesterday the imperial physician checked my pulse and said that my pulse was unusual, but it’s been less than a month, so we have to wait a little longer to confirm.

However, I feel that I can be sure that there have been some changes in my body in the past few days."

Kangxi looked at Ji Nai for a while before he realized what she meant. Then he was ecstatic. If it had not been for the wrong occasion, he would have hugged her in his arms.

This was different from the joy of being a father for the first time. Kangxi knew what Ji Nai's heart knot was, and he also knew that even if the estrangement between them disappeared, there would still be traces left. So this child was what Kangxi had been looking forward to, he just didn't expect to get his wish so soon.

So this joy is complicated, not only because of the arrival of the newborn, but also because of my feelings for Ji Nai.

The only one who didn't think there was anything wrong was Concubine Hui. She knew how fertile Concubine Rong was in history. If she hadn't lost four sons in a row, which affected the relationship between her and Kangxi, this first favorite concubine of Kangxi in his early years would probably have been able to give birth to more children.

The Empress Dowager was pleasantly surprised and said, "We don't have to wait another half a month. A skilled imperial physician can diagnose a fetus that is less than a month old. Go call Imperial Physician Zhao!"

Doctor Zhao was the imperial physician who specialized in taking care of the Empress Dowager, so his medical skills were naturally beyond reproach.

The Empress Dowager couldn't wait to summon Imperial Physician Zhao, also wanting to confirm the good news on the spot.

When Doctor Zhao hurried over, he originally thought that the Empress Dowager was unwell, but at a glance, he knew it was something else. After all, the Empress Dowager had a rosy complexion and looked somewhat happy, and she did not look like she was sick at all.

"Quick, show it to Rongpin."

Doctor Zhao put aside all his questions, calmed down, and concentrated on feeling Rongpin's pulse. He was startled, and after feeling it carefully, he found that it was indeed the case. He reported the good news with a look of surprise:

"Congratulations to His Majesty, and to the Empress Dowager. Concubine Rong is less than a month pregnant."

"Good! Good! Good!"

The Empress Dowager said three good words in a row, not only because she saw that Kangxi had another child, but also because once the news came out, no one would question the emperor's intentions.
