Rong Fei is not honored

According to the original rules, pregnant concubines could not sleep with the emperor, and their green badges would be removed, unless the emperor allowed them to stay overnight as a sign of favor. However, the person who slept beside the emperor at night was not necessarily the master, and the emperor was the person in the world who would least tolerate his own mistakes.

So Ji Nai should have prepared palace maids for Kangxi, but she was unwilling to do so. She left her bed to Kangxi and other women, while she could only move to another room to make room for them because she was pregnant. This was too disgusting. She had never done it in her previous life, and it was even more impossible in this life.

Otherwise, in his previous life, there was Noble Lady Guo Luoluo in Concubine Yi's palace, there was Zhangjia in Concubine De's palace, and there was Juechan in Concubine Hui's palace, but Yinzhi had no brothers to help him except relying on the crown prince.

If Kangxi didn't mention it, Ji Nai would pretend not to know. Even if he did, she would have a way to refuse. Besides, she felt that with her current relationship with Kangxi, he would not take the initiative to make such a request. After all, she didn't stop him from going to other people's places, so he wouldn't be unable to resist for a whole day.

Nanny Zhou had advised Ji Nai many times about this, and she hoped that Ji Nai would take the initiative to offer a woman to Kangxi. Nanny Zhou was a nanny sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs after Ji Nai became pregnant. The Empress Dowager originally wanted to send a nanny from her own palace, but the Empress refused in the name of filial piety, saying that how could a younger generation lose a capable person by the side of the Empress Dowager for her own sake, and if something happened because of this, it would be a great sin.

After this was said, even Kangxi could not refute it. This man really could not be accepted. After all, no one could guarantee that the Empress Dowager would always be safe and sound. Otherwise, it would all be Ji Nai's fault.

Finally, the Queen ordered the Imperial Household Department to send over several maids and let Ji Nai choose one for himself. Although it was said that he could choose one himself, in fact, all of them were the same.

Ji Nai had never thought of sending the nanny to stay with the Imperial Household Department. At that time, the Imperial Household Department was a mixed bag, with people from bondservant families, royal relatives, important officials of the previous dynasty, and even forces left over from the former Ming Dynasty. None of them wanted Ji Nai to give birth to a child safely.

Therefore, the queen's action was completely ill-intentioned, but there was nothing wrong with it. After these words were spread, they even added to the queen's reputation of being filial.

It is indeed beneficial to the Aisin-Gioro family for the Queen to have a good reputation, but this time the good reputation was gained by putting the baby in Ji Nai's belly in danger. For the Empress Dowager and Kangxi, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

It can be said that the queen became smarter, but not that smart, otherwise she should not put her own interests before the interests of the royal family. She won fame but lost the favor of Kangxi and the Empress Dowager. Fame can be icing on the cake, but it caused dissatisfaction from the two biggest masters in the Forbidden City, which was fatal.

Perhaps the queen had thought of this, but to her, Ji Nai's child posed a greater threat.

The first thing that Madam Zhou did when she came to Ji Nai's side was not to help her with her pregnancy, but to bring up the matter of the palace maids serving in the bedroom. At that moment, the expressions of Yu Qing and Yu Sheng changed, and they wanted to throw Madam Zhou out immediately. The master's pregnancy wasn't even stable yet, wouldn't it make her sad if she was brought up with this now?

This move directly overturned Ji Nai's speculation, because it was too stupid, and it exposed her bad intentions right away. Later, when Yuan Xu stared at Madam Zhou, she found that she had contact with people around Concubine Borjigit. When she learned the news, Ji Nai was silent for a long time. She really hadn't thought of this possibility. Although Borjigit was a little unruly, she was not vicious. How could she think of bribing the maternity nanny who helped her to stay pregnant?

Ji Nai was leaning on the couch watching Yu Sheng making small clothes for the child. She had been feeling very uncomfortable since she became pregnant with this child, and she started having morning sickness when she was more than one month pregnant.

This made Ji Nai even more certain that his Chengrui had returned. In his previous life, he was pregnant with Chengrui at this time. The child was very tiring when in the womb. He was thought to be a naughty devil, but Chengrui turned out to be very well-behaved.

But Chengrui was so thin and emaciated by illness. Before he died, he comforted his mother and father, asking them not to be sad and to take good care of his younger brother. Such a good child died in the battle for the eldest son. Thinking of this, Ji Nai's eyes were red.

As soon as Kangxi came in and saw this scene, he immediately got angry and scolded the servants for not serving him well.

It was fine that no one noticed, and the emotion dissipated in a blink of an eye, but seeing Kangxi so nervous about her, she suddenly felt very wronged. Ji Nai looked at Kangxi with tears in her eyes and reached out to hug him. Kangxi hugged Ji Nai into his arms and asked her softly: "What's wrong? Are you bullied? Or are these servants not serving you well?"

Ji Nai said nothing, but just buried his head in Kangxi's chest, rubbing it from time to time.

Nanny Zhou felt that this was too presumptuous and not good for the child, so she lectured Ji Nai directly in front of Kangxi: "Since the concubine is pregnant, she should not cling to His Majesty. What if she hurts the royal heir?" There was undisguised contempt in her words, and it was clear that she was accusing Ji Nai of wanting to seduce men even though she was pregnant.

Kangxi was so angry at this bastard that he wanted to explode immediately, but he was afraid of scaring Ji Nai in his arms, so he winked and asked Liang Jiugong to pull the man away.

When Ji Nai recovered her composure and looked up, she noticed that there was one person missing from the palace, but she said nothing. She just said to Kangxi a little embarrassedly, "Your Majesty, my mood has been very unstable these days, sometimes good, sometimes bad."

"I wasn't like this when I came to see you the other day. If you've been wronged, don't bear it." Kangxi still didn't believe that Ji Nai was in a bad mood for no reason. The nanny was like this in front of him, and he didn't know how to treat Ji Nai in private. If it weren't for the queen, Ji Nai wouldn't have been unable to take good care of her pregnancy.

The attitude of the previous dynasty's Sony and the Queen's calculations in the harem made Kangxi increasingly dissatisfied with Hesheli. In addition, the Empress Dowager had previously mentioned to him in a subtle way that he should take good care of Ji Nai's baby. If anything happened to this child, the benefits brought by the previous birth would be multiplied, and some people would even spread rumors that Kangxi was not orthodox and was not recognized by God, so there would be no successor.

Even though Kangxi was only 13 years old this year, emphasizing his age in this matter would only make those people look down on the young emperor. Kangxi felt that the Empress Dowager was hinting at something, but he really didn't want to believe that possibility. Even though he and the Empress were not a loving couple, they were still respectful to each other. Kangxi still didn't want to believe that his wife, his Empress, would do such a thing.

"I think this Nanny Zhou is not good. Let's replace her. I will send you another Nanny later."

"I will obey your Majesty." Ji Nai showed that he trusted Kangxi very much. Who could he send? Since he couldn't ask the Empress Dowager for people, those few people were the only ones left.

Apart from Nanny Sun, whom Kangxi regarded as his mother, there were only Nanny Chen and Nanny Li in the Palace of Heavenly Purity, and Nanny Tong left by Empress Dowager Tong Jia. Nanny Sun had returned to Jiangnan to retire under the manipulation of the Empress Dowager, and Nanny Chen was the manager of the Palace of Heavenly Purity, leaving only Nanny Li and Nanny Tong.

Ji Nai would rather have the inexperienced and inconspicuous Nanny Li come. After all, in the future, princesses from the Tong Jia clan will also enter the palace, and by then it is still unknown who Nanny Tong's master will be.

"Your Majesty, it was only after I became pregnant that I realized how hard it is to be a mother. Suddenly, I felt that the wood carving of Guanyin that I made for Empress Dowager Cihe was too crude." Ji Nai's words were never meant to gain Tong Jia's favor, but to make the emperor remember his biological mother and keep the nanny beside the empress dowager.
