Since they are all worn by the Qing Dynasty, you might as well be bold and choose Kangxi!

In the Yanxi Palace, Guo Luoluo Baozhu knelt on the ground and flatly denied spreading the rumors.

"My three majesties, I did say that Shi Yiyao was found by Concubine Xian to secure her favor and give birth to a child, but I only guessed privately and asked my aunt, Concubine Yi, out of curiosity. I did not spread it. Really, I am innocent."

Concubine Hui looked stern:

"Even if it wasn't you who spread it, it still came from your mouth."

As soon as these words came out, Guo Luoluo Baozhu's eyes flashed with a hint of evasion.

Rong Fei snorted coldly when she saw this.

"It is you, spreading rumors and slandering the current Imperial Concubine Xian. This is a crime of great disrespect."

"My two sisters are right." Concubine Xi leaned back in her chair, looking lazy but her words were sharp.

"How dare you, a mere concubine selected from the imperial selection, spread rumors and slander the imperial concubine Xian? It is not enough to correct the palace rules if you don't punish me."

No matter how smart Guo Luoluo Baozhu was, she was only fourteen years old. Upon hearing this, she was at a loss and could only shake her head in panic and beg for mercy:

"I know I was wrong. I know I didn't do it on purpose..."

At the end, seeing that the three ladies were indifferent, she was completely panicked.

"My three majesties, I am the niece of Concubine Yi. Please spare me this time for Concubine Yi's sake. Aunt, save me, aunt, save me...

However, the gate of Yanxi Palace was quiet and no one came.

Concubine Hui and the other two looked at each other.

Concubine Hui said:

"It is impossible to forgive you for such a serious crime, but since you are the niece of Concubine Yi's sister, I will let you off the hook. Come here, concubine Guo Luoluo Baozhu spread rumors and slandered Concubine Xian, openly violating palace rules. From now on, your status as a concubine will be revoked, and you will never be allowed to participate in the selection. You will be expelled from the palace."

Soon, Guo Luoluo Baozhu was dragged out by two maids, one on the left and one on the right, and her voice begging for mercy became increasingly distant.

There was silence in the palace for a while, and finally Concubine Hui spoke first:

"Since this matter involves Imperial Concubine Xian, it would be better to send someone to deliver the news to Tangquan Palace as quickly as possible. What do you two sisters think?"

Both Concubine Rong and Concubine Xi had no objections. They came here to deal with this matter, and after it was done, they would leave.

But before leaving, Rong Fei thought of something and suddenly spoke:

"How to deal with the rumored Princess Shi San?"

They all know how that person has behaved recently.

Concubine Xi raised her eyebrows upon hearing this:

"That clown?"

Yes, in their eyes, Shi Yiyao is just a clown. Who cares about Concubine Xian? She is the only one favored by the emperor. She must be crazy to find a concubine to share the emperor's favor.

As for offspring, it's even more of a joke.

In the past, they didn't believe that Concubine Xian really wanted to give up having children in order to spend more time with the Emperor. But two years have passed, and Concubine Xian has been in good health except for catching a few colds. This shows that she has really recovered and can have children.

But Imperial Concubine Xian really never had a child. Even if she got pregnant in the future, the child would be much older than the Crown Prince and his brothers, and it would be impossible for them to compete with them. It was obvious that she had no other ambitions.

This is also the reason why the court and the harem no longer hold on to the fact that the emperor has always favored Concubine Xian in the past two years.

But I didn't expect that Princess Shi San actually took it seriously. No, judging from her reaction, I was afraid that she had this idea in mind, so she tacitly accepted it after the rumor came out.

After hearing this, Concubine Rong immediately covered her lips with her handkerchief and chuckled:

"It was her. After the rumor came out, she never explained, which led to the rumor becoming more and more intense."

Concubine Hui hesitated for a moment and said:

"Even so, it can't be considered wrong. After all, she has never personally admitted the rumor."

The three of them looked at each other, and they all knew what the Third Princess Shi was planning. Finally, Concubine Xi said:

"If that's the case, then don't worry about it. Wait for Concubine Xian to come back and handle it personally."

The other two had no objection to this. After all, after this incident, Miss Shi San had lost her reputation and was considered useless, so they left it to Concubine Xian to deal with it.

……

the other side,

Tangquan Palace.

Shi Nanxi was lying on the couch and having her waist massaged by Nanny Yang. Ever since she told Kangxi that she wanted a child, he seemed to have gone crazy, working day and night, wishing he could stay in bed all day and make her pregnant immediately.

She endured it at first, but later she could no longer tolerate it and drove him out of the palace.

"My queen, are you feeling better?" Nanny Yang's voice came from behind.

Shi Nanxi felt it and felt that her sore waist was much more comfortable, and immediately praised:

"Mammy, your cooking skills are really good. I feel much better."

After saying that, she slowly sat up, took her clothes and put them on. At this time, Hongying came in carrying a box.

"My lady, the kitchen is making Tremella, Lotus Seed and Red Date Soup today."

Since Shi Nanxi was preparing to get pregnant, she naturally had to pay attention to her diet. After consulting the imperial physician, she would drink some nourishing soups such as bone soup, crucian carp soup, or white fungus, lotus seeds and red dates soup every day to help with pregnancy.

"Bring it here."

She put on her clothes and came over. Hongying put the box on the table and brought out a white fungus, lotus seeds and red dates soup. There was steam coming out of the soup and wolfberries were also put in it. The red and yellow colors looked very nice. Shi Nanxi picked it up with clean hands.

"Well, it tastes good."

She scooped a mouthful and ate it, nodding her head in evaluation. Then, as she was eating it spoonful by spoonful, Kangxi walked in from outside.

Hongying and Nanny Yang were about to bow, but Kangxi waved his hand.

Shi Nanxi raised her head when she heard the noise and saw that it was Kangxi. She did not stand up or pay attention to Kangxi and was obviously still angry.

When Kangxi saw this scene, he touched his nose uncomfortably. He was so excited when he suddenly learned that the girl was going to give birth to his child that he lost his composure and walked up to Nanxi.

Shi Nanxi held the bowl and changed direction, determined to cure Kangxi. He didn't even know how old he was, and he couldn't stand being so indulged no matter how healthy his body was.

Upon seeing this, Kangxi changed direction, walked in front of Shi Nanxi, bowed his head and confessed his guilt.

"Nanxi, I was wrong. I'm not angry anymore. I won't lose my temper again next time."

Shi Nanxi, holding the bowl, changed direction and said indifferently:

"I dare not be angry with the emperor. If it gets out, the censor will accuse me of being arrogant because of my favor."

"I will remove anyone who dares to impeach you from his post," Kangxi said immediately after hearing this, and turned back.

Hearing this, Shi Nanxi put down the bowl, wiped the corners of his mouth, and said indifferently:

"Then Your Majesty, please go ahead. Then you will not only prove that I am arrogant because of my favor, but you will also impeach me for causing harm to the country and the people."

Seeing that Shi Nanxi was willing to pay attention to him, Kangxi immediately said:

"I just listened to Nanxi. I didn't think it through."

Shi Nanxi's face looked better, and Kangxi saw this and took the opportunity to say:

"I brought a good thing here, Nanxi, would you like to take a look?"

Good stuff? Shi Nanxi put away the handkerchief and looked over curiously.

Kangxi immediately took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Shi Nanxi. Shi Nanxi looked at the words written on it, divided into two lines, with three words in each line.

The first line reads: Blessing, Prayer, and Joy.

The second line reads: Yue, Zhen, and Jing.

"This is?"

Shi Nanxi had some guesses in her mind. Kangxi stroked the jade ring and explained with a smile:

"This is the name I picked for our future child from the Shuowenjiezi and Shijing I read last night. What do you think?"

Shi Nanxi thought to herself that she had guessed right, and her anger was completely gone. Kangxi attached so much importance to her and his future child, which showed that he cared about her.

"They are all very good. Your Majesty chose it well."

Kangxi laughed loudly, and then said:

"But I think it's not good enough. I'll look through it carefully and find a better one."

Just as the two were talking, Xiao Ruzi walked in.

"Your servant greets His Majesty and His Majesty. Concubine Hui sent the letter as fast as she could."

Shi Nanxi remained calm, it seemed that the rumors in the palace had come to fruition, but she said:

"bring here."

Xiao Ruzi stepped forward and handed it over. Shi Nanxi took the message and saw that it was just as she expected, but the man had a frown on his face.

"What's wrong? Did something happen in the palace?" Kangxi looked over.

Shi Nanxi pursed her lips and said nothing, then handed the letter to Kangxi. Kangxi read it quickly and slammed the table.

"This is ridiculous! How can Concubine Hui and the others be responsible for the selection of talents?"

Seeing this, Shi Nanxi's expression softened and he advised:

"Your Majesty, please calm down. There may be some misunderstanding. Sister Huifei and the others have dealt with the rumors. However, we have been out of the palace for so many days and it is time to return."

Kangxi's face was still full of anger.

But I still agreed.

"it is good."

Afterwards, Shi Nanxi ordered people to pack their luggage and prepare to return to the palace. When she and Kangxi left, they kept a low profile and no one knew about it, but when they came back, they did it with great fanfare, and everyone knew that Concubine Xian was going back to the palace.
