Rong Fei is not honored
Chapter 423 Taking advantage of the situation
Liang Jiugong laughed awkwardly and said, "Oh, my master misunderstood. Your Majesty did not send me here to monitor you."
"I know that His Majesty is worried that I will be bullied."
Liang Jiugong was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's good that you understand His Majesty's intention."
"Eunuch Liang also conveyed a message for me, saying:
"I don't want to get involved in this matter, but the news has been passed on from the Yanxi Palace. If the people in the palace don't calm down, I will quit."
If it really comes to that, I will not take over the palace affairs. The one in my heart will not agree."
"Hey, I will definitely pass on the message."
Qianqing Palace
After hearing Liang Jiugong's report, Kangxi felt even more guilty and asked, "Did Rong Fei say anything else?"
Liang Jiugong shook his head.
If Concubine Rong really said something, he would never dare to hide it.
Kangxi didn't know whether he was disappointed or relieved, and turned to look at Wei Zhu again.
Wei Zhu understood and stepped forward to report, "Yesterday, the Yanxi Palace did pass on the news to the Zhongcui Palace, and not long after, the Rong Concubine summoned several concubines."
Kangxi frowned, very dissatisfied with Nara's behavior of bothering Ji Nai, who was pregnant, and completely forgot about Nara's busyness during this period.
"The palace really needs to be rectified. From now on, no items sent to us will be accepted.
The Qianqing Palace is the emperor's residence, and court officials occasionally come and go. How could it look like for people from the harem to approach so casually?"
With Kangxi's words, Liang Jiugong and Wei Zhu naturally knew what attitude they should adopt towards the ladies in the harem.
Of course, this definitely does not include the ancestor of Zhongcui Palace.
After this day, Kangxi still did not enter the harem again, but no one dared to make a fuss. However, it was not because they were afraid of Ji Nai's few words, but because:
The soups and snacks sent to the Qianqing Palace were all rejected. Although they knew that with so many people sending things to the Qianqing Palace, it was impossible for the Emperor to eat them all, but accepting the things meant that the Emperor was willing to give them this face, didn't it?
The nightgowns, sachets and other items sent to the Qianqing Palace were also sent back in the same condition.
Although the pajamas worn by His Majesty were all made by the embroidery room, to be honest, compared with their craftsmanship, those made by the embroiderers are indeed more comfortable.
As for sachets, His Majesty has only worn those made by Concubine Rong so far.
They know that they are not favored, but they also hope that one day the things they send will catch the Emperor's eye. At the very least, they can send some things from time to time and register with the Emperor so that they will not be completely forgotten.
The result is that not only are the things they sent to the Qianqing Palace not accepted, but even the servants who delivered the things were beaten with boards and thrown back, for the crime of spying on the emperor.
God knows, how could they have the guts to do that?
I was already feeling uneasy, not knowing what the Emperor was angry about. Then, thinking back to Rong Fei's lecture some time ago, I immediately had a bad guess:
Could it be that Rong Fei’s lecture that day was the Emperor’s intention?
The more she thought about it, the more this was the case. Rong Fei had always been a person who kept to herself. She was kind to the children in the palace, and she always ignored the concubines.
She was not one who liked to hold power. She would repeatedly push away the palace power she had obtained. This was the case when she was a concubine, and it did not change much after she became a Rong concubine.
The lecture in Zhongcui Palace did make Rong Fei famous, but if you think about it carefully, this is not something Rong Fei could do at all.
Unless, Rong Fei was pretending all along, and her true face has been exposed now.
A cautious concubine investigated privately and found out that after Rong Fei's lecture that day, Liang Jiugong came out right after they came out of Zhongcui Palace.
In other words, it is very likely that Liang Jiugong was present throughout Rong Fei's lecture, and the Emperor must have known what they said and how they reacted.
When the truth came out, the concubines felt like the sky had fallen!
At this moment, there was no longer any resentment or dissatisfaction towards Concubine Rong. He thought she was just talking without any guilt. He just wanted to go back to that day and say that he was wrong in a proper and respectful manner. He dared not make trouble again.
And the concubine Sochorolo, who had the worst attitude and spoke the most rudely that day, was also blamed by them.
If it weren't for Concubine Sochorolo taking the initiative, they, who were unfavored and childless, would never dare to confront Concubine Rong.
As for why they did not hate Rong Fei Ma Jia, it was because the strength of the two sides was very different. It was no exaggeration to say that if the other party really wanted to deal with them, they could kill them without anyone knowing.
Secondly, Concubine Rong's lecture was originally carried out by the order of His Majesty, and her persuasion was well-reasoned and she had no intention of deceiving them. If it were Sheli, she would have used this opportunity to lead them into rebellion.
Moreover, after this incident, His Majesty went to Zhongcui Palace much less frequently. You know, although they had fallen out of favor before, Rong Fei was still able to see His Majesty from time to time because of her pregnancy.
It is hard not to suspect that Concubine Rong was implicated by them, although they would not feel guilty.
......
"Are you unhappy? Is it because of Kangxi?"
"No, I'm pregnant, so it's not very convenient. Last time, we almost had an incident. It's better for us to avoid seeing each other for the time being. This was my own suggestion, so why should I be upset about him?"
"But coming to the Zhongcui Palace is one thing, but being obsessed with beauty is another."
[How about asking Kangxi to remain a virgin for me?]
Yuan Xu choked.
[Besides, how do you know that Kangxi didn't enter the harem just because of beauty?]
Yuan Xu's eyes lit up, didn't they?
[You didn't take the Imperial Hospital's medicinal material consumption that Nanny Li presented to you earlier seriously.]
Ji Nai looked at Yuan Xu, who was still confused, and explained patiently:
[Juechan and the others are still palace maids now. Kangxi will only allow them to have children if they have the status of a legitimate concubine, whether a concubine or a princess.
However, the amount of contraceptive medicine taken from the Qianqing Palace during this period wasn't very large, and after I summoned the concubines to give them a lecture, the amount was reduced by 60%.
"Is this possible?" Yuan Xu was stunned.
What else?
Spying on the emperor is a serious crime. Although trying to guess his intentions is disrespectful, if you are always by the emperor's side, how can you not know his likes and dislikes?
If you can't check directly, you won't have to go around in circles.
"Then you're still not happy?"
Ji Nai raised his eyebrows, indicating that he had no idea what Yuan Xu was talking about.
"You're still pretending! If Kangxi wasn't unhappy, you should be in a good mood right now.
People outside thought that this lecture was Kangxi's intention, but it just allowed you to take advantage of the situation.
If this happens a few more times in the future, no matter what you do, people in the palace will wonder if this is Kangxi's intention again.
Then, it will be much easier for us to act by taking advantage of the power of the tiger."
