Rong Fei is not honored

Why was Consort Rong also injured, and why was her hand injured?

The master and servant exchanged a glance, instantly connecting it to the events that had occurred recently.

"This is aimed at Wan Fu! Is it a warning, or... has it implicated Consort Rong?" Noble Lady Nara asked in a panic, her face pale as she grabbed the old nanny's hand.

The old woman was also flustered, but unlike her mistress, she remained composed. She whispered, "It was Lady Wuya who injured Consort Rong. What does it have to do with us? Mistress, you can't take everything upon yourself." "But..."

“No buts! Consort Rong is favored, and her hand is so badly injured, His Majesty will surely be furious. I'm afraid even Lady Wuya won't get away with it. Your Majesty, no matter how many conspiracies and schemes are involved, it can't be our fault.”

Suppressing her unease, Noble Lady Nara asked, "Where is Wan Fu? Bring Wan Fu here."

Holding her son tightly in her arms, Noble Lady Nara kept muttering, "Everything was getting better, how could this happen..."

Just as the old woman had predicted, Kangxi was indeed so angry upon receiving the news that he wanted to kill someone.

He rushed to Zhongcui Palace and, seeing Ji Nai who had fainted from the pain, kicked the Zhongcui Palace servant who was kneeling and begging for forgiveness.

"If you can't even protect your master, what's the point of keeping you alive, Liang Jiugong!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down."

Liang Jiugong didn't want to disobey His Majesty at this time, but Consort Rong was very protective of her own. If she woke up and found that her servant had been punished by His Majesty, she would definitely be angry.

At that time, His Majesty might not think that Consort Rong was ungrateful, but he would definitely blame him for not stopping her.

As soon as he finished speaking, Liang Jiugong was also kicked to the ground. Not only did he not dare to cry out in pain, but he also had to whisper a reminder: "The young masters have probably already received the news."

Kangxi regained his senses and looked at Granny Li, who quickly replied, "When Your Majesty brought them back, the Princess and the three young princes all saw them, and they are currently being held in the side hall."

If you listen carefully, you can actually hear crying, but at this moment, Kangxi has no time to feel sorry for Ji Nai, as all his attention is focused on him.

He closed his eyes briefly and ordered, "Find out the truth!"

"Yes."

“Cheng Rui and Saiyinchahun have arrived. They are not allowed to come in. Tell them to go directly to the side hall to take care of Rongxian and the other children.”

"Yes."

Kangxi carefully took Ji Nai into his arms and asked the imperial physician Lin, who was treating Ji Nai's wound, "How is Consort Rong's hand?"

Physician Lin, sweating profusely, replied, "External injuries are easy to treat, but... there are several fractures in the hand bones. Even if it heals, it might..."

"Abandoned?"

"It's not that bad. It's just that I can't exert any force, and I can't do delicate work like needlework. It hurts when the weather is bad."

After carefully answering His Majesty's question, and seeing that the other party did not speak again, Physician Lin calmed himself down and focused on treating Consort Rong's hand injury.

The master was injured, and even several of Li Mama's trusted confidantes were almost punished. It was only because His Majesty still needed him that he didn't retaliate against him. But what if the master really was in trouble...

After treating the wound, Imperial Physician Lin was about to leave when he inadvertently noticed the Emperor's reddened eyes. Terrified, he used all his acting skills to pretend he hadn't seen anything.

Just as he stepped out of the palace gates and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Physician Lin looked at the little eunuch blocking his way and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

It's good to have the right master, but it's bad to have the right profession.

After following the eunuch named Xiao Shouzi to the side hall, as expected, they saw several of Consort Rong's children, including the two-year-old Prince Yinzhi.

How is my mother?

Physician Lin repeated what he had just told His Majesty.

As soon as he finished speaking, he could clearly feel the air in the hall grow colder, as if it were not June but the dead of winter, making him feel a chill from head to toe.

Sensing that his younger brother was on the verge of exploding, Cheng Rui asked everyone to step back first.

Sure enough, the next second they heard Saiyinchahun shout angrily, "Damn Uya clan!"

Cheng Rui calmly said, "Although she doesn't have a formal title now, her health is precious. It's fine as long as the baby in her belly is alright. But if something happens, I'm afraid Mother will be held accountable instead."

Compared to a hand, the imperial heir is naturally more important.

A murderous glint flashed in Sainchahun's eyes. He was nothing but a piece of flesh that had not yet been born. How dare he be compared to his mother?

"You are not allowed to do anything!"

"Why should I?" Saiyinchahun was very indignant. His mother had already gone through all this, so why wouldn't his elder brother allow him to retaliate?

“Now that this has happened, everyone can guess that it’s Zhongcui Palace’s revenge. No matter who did it, in the end it will be Mother’s fault.” Cheng Rui said in a low voice, “Aren’t you afraid of getting your hands dirty by taking revenge on a child who can’t even kill a chicken?”

"What do you mean, brother?"

"Whether it was voluntary or not, the fact that she was able to get pregnant with this child shows that she was ambitious."

Cutting off all paths for an ambitious person to climb the social ladder can indeed hurt, but it's not painful enough.

Only those who have experienced success are less able to accept failure.

Without Cheng Rui needing to say anything more, Saiyinchahun already understood his meaning: let Wuya climb up first, then fall down.

With nowhere to vent his anger, Saiyinchahun grew increasingly irritable and impatiently asked, "Hasn't Liang Jiugong finished his interrogation yet?"

"It might not be that something is wrong with the people around Mother. If that's the case, it will take a lot of effort to find clues."

It wasn't that Chengrui trusted Li Mama and the others that much; he simply trusted his mother's abilities. If there were truly problems among these servants, his mother would never have been unprepared.

Despite Cheng Rui's outward calm and composed demeanor during the competition, the way his fingers gripped the teacup so tightly they turned white betrayed his true emotions.

Upon seeing Li Mama and Xiao Anzi, Cheng Rui immediately stood up. "Where is Liang Jiugong?"

“Eunuch Liang has gone to Chengqian Palace.” Granny Li said with a grim face, “Just now a young eunuch came to report that Lady Wuya is showing signs of miscarriage and asked His Majesty to go and take a look.”

Sainchahun's eyes widened as if he was about to explode, but he hadn't completely ignored his elder brother's instructions, so he forcibly held back and asked, "Does Father know?"

Upon hearing this question, Li Mama's expression miraculously softened considerably. She replied, "His Majesty is with the master and no one is allowed to disturb him."

Upon hearing this, not only Cheng Rui and Saiyinchahun, but also Rong Xian and the others felt a little better.

Even though they knew that the child in Uya's belly was also their father's child, at this time, as children, they still hoped that their father could stay by their mother's side.

"What exactly happened today?"

The children all turned to look at Granny Li and Xiao Anzi, which was what they most wanted to know.

They simply couldn't believe that their mother, with her cautious nature, could run into Uya, who was pregnant. Under normal circumstances, she would have avoided her at a distance.
