Transmigrating to the Qing Dynasty: The Beloved Princess Uses a System to Change the Plot

Upon hearing Consort Tong's voice, Lady Uya was startled and immediately raised her head.

But having weathered many storms and served as Empress Dowager for quite some time, she quickly regained her composure.

Consort Tong only brought a nanny and Mu Yue with her; there was no one else around.

As long as you insist that you did nothing wrong, even if you go to His Majesty's presence, you will at most be reprimanded, but there will be no punishment.

Moreover, with the experience from her previous life, even if she is temporarily disliked by His Majesty, she can quickly regain her position as a concubine.

There's absolutely no need to be afraid of a woman who died young.

Consort Tong had no idea what Lady Wuya was thinking. She held the young child in her arms and gently coaxed him.

Only when the child's cries gradually subsided and he fell asleep with his finger in his mouth did she lower her voice and say to Uya, "I will tell the Emperor about what you did today."

After saying that, Consort Tong planned to leave with Mu Yue.

Before she could leave, Uya, her eyes red-rimmed, rushed to Consort Tong's side, pleading pitifully, "This servant knows that the child will be raised by Your Highness, but I am, after all, the child's mother. Please, Your Highness, let this servant see the child one more time..."

Her voice was mournful.

If Consort Tong hadn't just heard Wuya's malicious words, she might have actually softened her heart.

However, Consort Tong did not miss the fleeting malice on Lady Wuya's face.

Although she didn't know why Uya had suddenly changed her attitude, she knew that she had ill intentions.

However, Consort Tong had the support of the Tongjia clan and a childhood friendship with Emperor Kangxi, so she was not afraid of the schemes of the Uya clan.

She slightly lifted her eyelids and looked at the pitiful-looking Uya, saying, "This child should have been brought to me as soon as he was born. It was because I pitied you and your child being separated that I specially asked my cousin the Emperor to allow the child to stay for a while. But you have not taken good care of the little prince. I cannot joke about the dragon prince."

"If you have any complaints, you can ask your cousin the Emperor to return the child to you, instead of playing the victim here with me!"

No sooner had Consort Tong finished speaking than a familiar voice came from behind her, "Why is my cousin here today, and with such an angry expression?"

No wonder Uya changed so quickly; it seems she knew her cousin the Emperor was coming and was deliberately putting on an act for him.

However, no matter how pitiful Wuya was, the Emperor's cousin still had to consider Tongjia behind him.

My cousin is a man of deep thoughts and feelings, and he never cares too much about personal relationships. Even if he cares about Wuya, he would never do anything to embarrass Tongjia.

As expected, Kangxi didn't even glance at the pale-faced and frail-looking Uya.

She walked up to Consort Tong and put her arm around her waist. "Why are my cousin and Yue'er here?"

"The side hall is poorly lit and incense-filled; my cousin can't stand the smell!"

Uya looked up at Kangxi with a dependent expression, but he didn't expect that he wouldn't even glance at her.

It was as if all the pampering she received in her previous life was just her fantasy.

Could it be... that those were just dreams?

Uya looked somewhat dazed, muttering, "No...no...His Majesty cares most about me..."

She spoke very softly.

Apart from Mu Yue, who was standing next to her and could hear it clearly, Kangxi and Consort Tong could only hear a few faint whispers.

Uya looked dazed and indeed appeared to have been wronged.

"Father Emperor, what do you mean by 'seeing you off on your way'?"

Mu Yue deliberately imitated Consort De's tone of voice, and it didn't sound like she was saying anything nice.

Kangxi's expression immediately turned cold. "Did someone say something to Yue'er?"

He released his arm from Consort Tong and easily picked up Mu Yue.

"It's nothing, it's just that my mother and I were outside the side hall when we heard what was going on inside."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Kangxi immediately looked at Lady Uya, who was kneeling on the ground.

She was wearing a plain white undergarment. She had just given birth and was still in her postpartum period. To cover up the odor, she used a lot of face powder.

Her lips were pale, and it was hard to tell whether it was her undergarments that were paler or her complexion that was paler.

Kangxi subtly withdrew his gaze and looked at Consort Tong beside him, asking as if casually, "Cousin, did you hear anything?"

My cousin had previously said that her child was too young to be separated from his mother, so she had never taken the initiative to visit Yinzhen.

But today, he brought Yue'er to the side hall and happened to overhear some things he shouldn't have heard.

Could it be that my cousin is jealous because I slept with Lady Wuya in Chengqian Palace, and is deliberately using Yue'er to scheme against Lady Wuya?

Both Consort Tong and Mu Yue sensed the subtle probing that Emperor Kangxi was giving them.

Today, Mu Yue requested that Consort Tong bring her to the side hall, so we can't let Father Emperor misunderstand Consort Tong because of this.

She quickly feigned innocence and said, "Father, you haven't answered Yue'er's question yet!"

"What exactly does that mean?"

Kangxi frowned slightly, not intending to explain, but instead asked, "Why are Yue'er and Consort Tong here?"

"I remember Yue'er always liked to cling to your Bao Cheng brother, didn't she?"

Now that Bao Cheng has recovered, given the bond between the two children, why would he be alone with his cousin and even come to the side hall of Chengqian Palace?

Remembering the smallpox incident that had not yet been resolved, Kangxi was worried that someone would plot against his children again.

He has already lost many children, and he doesn't want anything to happen to his only legitimate son and daughter.

Mu Yue sensed Kangxi's worry about her, and wanting to clear Consort Tong of suspicion, she immediately said aggrievedly, "After Brother Baocheng recovered from his illness, he started reading all day long and had no time to pay attention to Yue'er. Yue'er finally learned from the nanny that Consort Tong had a new younger brother and wanted to come and see him, but who knew that she would inexplicably encounter a crazy woman!"

Her chubby cheeks puffed out slightly, making Consort Tong's fingertips twitch slightly, as if she wanted to gently pinch that soft flesh.

However, in front of Emperor Kangxi, Consort Tong suppressed her thoughts.

She didn't want to arouse any more suspicion.

"Cousin, you should talk to Yue'er first, otherwise... she'll be so upset!"

When Consort Tong spoke, her tone carried a hint of amusement and intimacy.

This surprised Emperor Kangxi, who planned to come to Chengqian Palace that evening to ask him some questions.

However, the most important thing now is to deal with the Uya clan.

"That's not a nice thing to say. Yue'er is a good child, you can't learn that from her!"

“Baocheng has been well-behaved and diligent since childhood, but he just came back from the brink of death. Why is he reading books again?”

Emperor Kangxi frowned slightly. "It seems I need to have a serious talk with the Empress!"

"Cousin, I'll come see you again tonight. Let that brat Yinzhen stay by your side for now!"

Consort Tong had already arranged for people to take care of the child and sent them to the palace.

But now that she has come to the side hall and taken the child away, others will surely think that she has stolen Wuya's child.

She didn't want to take the blame.

Before she could refuse, Kangxi had already led Muyue out of the side hall of Chengqian Palace.

Wei Zhu, who was following behind Kangxi, left the procession at some point and went to a side hall.
