Rong Fei is not honored

Kangxi was never a person who would listen to one side of the story. Although he asked himself, he did not really listen to his own opinion.

If Ji Nai only cared about venting his emotions and ignored objective facts, then Kangxi's trust in him would no longer exist, and it might even affect the relationship between the two.

Many times, Ji Nai would feel powerless. If she had a family background like Hesheli or Niuhulu, she wouldn't have to endure such humiliation.

Just like the queen, no matter how big her mistakes were, even if she repeatedly touched Kangxi's bottom line, she still sat firmly on the throne. Her family background and her status as queen were natural advantages.

Whether it was ordering the death of the queen or abolishing the queen position, both were major events that shocked the court and the public. Even if the monarch really had this idea, he had to discuss it with the previous dynasty. Even if the queen was really unworthy of being the queen, there would still be stubborn ministers who jumped out to oppose it.

It is not as simple as the promotion, demotion and disposal of concubines, and the queen naturally understands this.

Otherwise, Hesheli might have been completely unaware that she and Kangxi were becoming estranged, but she was never in a hurry to save the relationship, because that was her confidence.

Ji Nai was impressed by the Queen's advantage and did not respond to Kangxi's words in time. This moment of silence made Kangxi misunderstand, "I just want to ask your thoughts, not to test you. You just lost a lot of good things, how can you make the same mistake again so soon."

"I don't doubt your intentions at all, I just don't know where to start for the moment."

"Just say whatever comes to mind. Just treat it as a casual conversation between the two of us."

Ji Nai had to be crazy to believe this during a casual conversation with the emperor. He rolled his eyes secretly and said, "First of all, the death of that palace maid was strange. There are two possibilities. Someone used this to frame the queen, or it was Nanny Zhao who did it."

Kangxi was more inclined to believe the latter, because there were only Madam Zhao and the young palace maid in the room. It would be unlikely unless a third party took action and had the ability to avoid his eyes and ears.

However, Ji Nai did not know that the little palace maid did not commit suicide, otherwise he would not have thought that someone was framing the queen.

"If it's the latter, I think it was Madam Zhao who made the decision on her own."

"Why do you think so?" Kangxi knew that Nanny Zhao was loyal to the Queen and didn't think she would do that.

"Your Majesty, you are the ruler of the world. You are so high up that you cannot see the world of the palace maids. Even though Nanny Zhao is loyal to the Queen, she does not mean she does not have her own selfish motives."

Ji Nai thought about it and explained from another perspective: "If it was the queen, why would she do this? It's really a thankless task, and the queen is not that stupid."

"Perhaps the Queen wants to use the excuse that she just found out she's pregnant to cover up her retreat during the day."

"If the Queen knew about the pregnancy in advance, I'd be frank with you, but she probably wouldn't even leave the gate of Kunning Palace. She could just make up an excuse afterwards, such as fainting after hearing the news. You wouldn't care whether it's true or not, considering that the Queen is pregnant."

Kangxi kept thinking, Ji Nai was right, this was in line with the Queen's temperament. But there was another possibility, that is, the Queen regretted halfway through and did not want to take risks, and Zhao Mama's pregnancy gave the Queen an excuse.

After all, Kangxi remembered that only the queen knew that Oboi was alone with her. It was not impossible that the queen was afraid of Oboi.

You have to know that even facing the emperor himself, Oboi was not very respectful, let alone Empress Hesheli, who he demoted to the daughter of a Manchu servant.

However, if this was the case, it would be a bit strange for the other concubines to have received false news that she had fainted.

Kangxi felt that if other people also knew the news that Oboi was there, few people would rush to the Qianqing Palace. Only when he was ill would these people go to visit him and express their concern, thus highlighting the queen's coldness.

Thinking of this, Kangxi suddenly realized why he was entangled in whether the queen was calculated by someone. There must be someone involved, but no matter when the queen knew she was pregnant, it could not change the fact that she abandoned him.

The difference between the two is that the queen gave up herself for her own safety, or after learning that she was pregnant, she analyzed the pros and cons and thought that the child was more important, so she gave up herself.

Kangxi felt a chill in his heart. He asked himself that even though he did not have much true love for the Queen and had used her in the past, he still gave her due respect and even let her mistakes go many times.

But what did he get? The queen, his wife, didn't care about her husband, the emperor, at all. Ordinary people couldn't accept being treated like this by their wives, let alone the emperor.

Perhaps some people would put themselves in the Queen’s shoes and think that her behavior was excusable, but sorry, Emperor Kangxi would never think so.

Even when concubines and royal heirs were interacting with the emperor, they had to be careful to avoid harming the dragon's body. Do you expect Kangxi, who was treated like this, to tolerate the queen's behavior that disregarded her own safety?

However, he still had to find out who had plotted against the queen.

This person actually knew that he was going to take action against Oboi, and he was able to get the news of the queen's pregnancy in advance. He was able to intervene in both the Qianqing Palace and the Kunning Palace while avoiding the eyes and ears of himself and the queen.

Anyone who can do this is definitely a big threat. Kangxi would not allow such a potential threat in his harem, otherwise he would be unable to sleep day and night.

Ji Nai didn't know that Kangxi had already figured it out and sentenced Empress Hesheli to death in his heart. He was still carefully analyzing the incident, fearing that his hatred for the empress would cause him to say biased words.

"Madame Yan is very powerful in the Queen's palace. I guess that Madame Zhao might want to use the news of the Queen's pregnancy to do something, so she might have delayed the news? That's why she didn't hesitate to kill people to protect herself afterwards."

Ji Nai's brain raced, thinking of the most reasonable possibility, not realizing that he had inadvertently guessed it. Kangxi found it funny to see Ji Nai racking his brains to think. He was still a fool. After analyzing for a long time, he could only think of these trivial details.

How could he know that Ji Nai knew that the key point was not whether the queen was plotted against, but that the queen's action of looking back was too hurtful, but this was not something she could say. Kangxi could think of it himself, but if Ji Nai said it out loud, it would be suspected of slandering the queen.

Therefore, Ji Nai could only try his best to dig out those details. His troubled look was just Ji Nai trying to suppress himself from saying anything that would imply the Queen, which led to Kangxi's misunderstanding.

However, if it weren't for this misunderstanding, Ji Nai would not have been able to further deepen Kangxi's image of himself as a simpleton. It also wouldn't have made Kangxi feel that even if Ji Nai had a conflict with the queen, he would not take the opportunity to slander the other party.
