Rong Fei is not honored

Chapter 45 Traveler

In the Yanxi Palace, Concubine Nara had a gloomy face. She originally thought that by using Ma Jia to attract everyone's attention, she and her child would be safer.

But she never expected that the Emperor and the Empress Dowager did not attach so much importance to their own children. It was obvious that she was pregnant with the eldest son. Could it be that just because the news of Ma Jia's pregnancy was known first, Nara Zhizhu felt a little regretful.

But then she thought that her child was the eldest prince, so Ma Jia's child probably didn't succeed in being born, and Nara Zhizhu felt relieved. Even if she was pretty, so what, and was favored by Kangxi, she couldn't compare to herself in terms of offspring or status.

Although Nara Zhizhu did not know the history of the Qing Dynasty, she knew about the four concubines Hui, Yi, De and Rong. She also knew that Concubine Hui gave birth to the eldest prince, and the second prince was the legitimate son. Therefore, Ma Jiajinai, who was currently in the limelight, was not taken seriously by her at all.

That being said, Nara Zhizhu's eyes were filled with jealousy, otherwise she wouldn't have set traps for others from the beginning. It was a pity that Ma Jiajinai was either too stupid to understand the meaning of her words, or too cowardly to act. She never thought that the other party had seen through her calculations.

Perhaps this is the self-righteousness of smart people. They always put themselves in a high position, looking down on others, but never think about the height of others. In their eyes, every move of the other party has its own explanation and its own logic.

This is what Nara Zhizhu is like now. She thinks that the ending of Rong Fei Ma Jia in history is enough to show her ordinariness, so she won't think of other possibilities. Even if there are unreasonable places, they will be logically self-consistent and fill in the gaps. And she came to this feudal and ignorant dynasty from a better era, which is naturally unusual, and she has a sense of superiority that destiny is in my hands.

She used contempt and disdain to cover up her true thoughts. An ancient feudal woman who was destined to be a loser could never be better than herself. Her beauty was just for show, and her inner self was ignorant and stupid. Only by thinking this way could she feel comfortable, so she despised and was bold. The only person she really cared about was Empress Hesheli on the Phoenix Throne. Rather than saying that she valued the empress, it would be better to say that she valued the chair. She wanted to be the empress, to be high above, and to be the mother of the world.

But she only saw the golden mountain and ignored the piles of bones at the foot of the mountain. Perhaps she saw them but didn't care because she didn't think in her heart that she would be one of them.

Ma Jiajinai and Nara Zhizhu both lived through the best of times, but the biggest difference between them was that Jinai was a product of the feudal dynasty. She clearly understood the horror of this era, and she was afraid of imperial power from the bottom of her heart. Even though she had been exposed to new ideas, she never dared to indulge herself in exploring the world outside the framework.

Nara Zhizhu may have known that human life was worthless in feudal dynasties, and that a single emperor's wrath would result in the death of millions. But those pale words would never shock her to the point of being engraved in her bones. Some things can only be understood through personal experience.

So while Nara Zhizhu was aiming for the position of empress and looking forward to a bright future, the countdown to the death of her unborn child also came. As the winner of the palace fight, the Empress Dowager knew almost every move made by Xuemei, but she did not react until the harmful thing was sent to the Yanxi Palace.

It was really that the Empress Dowager did not like Concubine Nara's plan. So what if the Emperor now needed a prince to consolidate his imperial power? The child in Ma Jia's belly was the recognized first son inside and outside the palace. Even though it was now known that the two of them were conceived at similar times, the meanings were completely different.

Besides, the Queen's behavior was not up to standard, and she was too young to handle the important task. But soon after the wedding, the Emperor let the Queen take over the power of the palace under the pretext of letting him enjoy his retirement. The Emperor in the former court and the harem were so cautious of her. If that matter was known one day, her old age would be ruined...

The Empress Dowager would never bow down to her grandson and ask for peace, so the best way to get closer to the two is to wait until the emperor needs her. However, the child of Ma Jia, the concubine, cannot be touched, otherwise it will cause unrest in the court, and the emperor has deployed a lot of people in Zhongcui Palace to protect the child. Therefore, the most suitable one is the child of Nara.

It's not that the Empress Dowager didn't pity this great-grandson, but compared with other things, this feeling was too insignificant. Just like Cheng Rui and the others in the previous life, they were abandoned.

(In the eighth year of Kangxi's reign, his eldest son Chenghu was born, and in the second year, Chengrui died.)

Unless Concubine Nara could realize the Queen's intentions herself and take the initiative to avoid her schemes, or find a way to make Kangxi notice and believe that the Queen was going to take action against her child, the child was destined to become a victim of the game between the Empress Dowager and Kangxi.

As the year drew to a close, Ji Nai found that Kangxi was coming more and more frequently. At first, he held back and did not ask, but later he could not stand it anymore. Kangxi was either doing prenatal education, reading until he was drowsy, or talking and doing things that made him want to have sex. He made Ji Nai very horny several times, but he always stopped at the last step.

In fact, the imperial physician also said that as long as the sex was not intense, pregnancy was fine except for the first three months and the last three months. But Kangxi said he should be careful about the child and refused to give birth. Once, Ji Nai was so anxious that he bit Kangxi's chin and insisted that he tell her the truth. Kangxi refused to say anything, so Ji Nai kept crying, saying that Kangxi despised her and refused to touch her.

Kangxi had no choice but to explain that Ji Nai could only be gentle while pregnant, and he felt that he could not control himself. Hearing this, Ji Nai was speechless, but he could do nothing about it, as it might hurt the child. After that, he strictly forbade Kangxi to touch him, otherwise he would feel uncomfortable. He ran to take a cold shower and had to calm down slowly.

However, it was of no use. Kangxi continued to do as he pleased, only occasionally helping Ji Nai with his hands.

Kangxi originally wanted to avoid the women in the harem. Ever since Concubine Nara became pregnant, they had gone crazy and only wanted to get pregnant. Kangxi had desires, but he didn't want to be a tool for giving birth. When he thought about what those women were thinking, he completely lost interest.

And the concubine Borjigit, I have never favored her until now, which is unique in the palace. Doesn't she know this? She didn't even think about how I would give her a child if I didn't want to touch her. Not to mention that she was arrogant and domineering before, always making things difficult for Ji Nai. Even if she didn't do these things, I would not accept her based on her background.

But other people didn't want to touch, but when it came to Ji Nai, they couldn't stop. Kangxi thought that he had strong self-control in normal times, but it seemed to be ineffective with Ji Nai. As soon as he saw Ji Nai, he wanted to kiss and hug her, and even wanted to do something more in-depth, but he couldn't, because he knew himself.

In the past, every time Ji Nai slept with me, I would be very fierce. But I don’t know why, even though I was very tired before going to bed, Ji Nai would always greet me without changing his expression when he woke up the next day.

If it wasn't for someone else, who obviously didn't favor her as much as Ji Nai, and whose condition wasn't good the next day, Kangxi would have doubted his own ability. It was also because of this that people in the palace thought that even though Kangxi went to Zhongcui Palace more often, Ji Nai was not favored, and she was just lucky to get pregnant.

The Empress Dowager suspected that Kangxi had hidden someone in the Zhongcui Palace. After investigating to no avail, she also speculated whether Ji Nai was a target set by Kangxi. But who was he trying to protect? The Empress Dowager subconsciously looked towards Kunning Palace, and her disgust became even stronger.
