Transmigrating to the Qing Dynasty: The Beloved Princess Uses a System to Change the Plot
Chapter 75 Wei Jingzhu's Choice
Looking at Mu Yue's confident demeanor, Kangxi couldn't help but recall what Mu Yue had said before.
He frowned, waved his hand, and signaled the servants to stop.
"How did Yue'er know the name of this thing, and how did she know that this thing called potato was not poisonous?"
Mu Yue sensed the hesitation in Kangxi's tone and immediately said, "It was Yue'er's dream!"
"The fairy uncle told Yue'er that this food called potato is very delicious, has many ways of being prepared, and is produced in large quantities..."
Mu Yue chattered on about the benefits of these things.
When Emperor Kangxi heard about the high yield, he couldn't help but be tempted.
You must understand that even in the capital city, there are impoverished people who cannot fill their stomachs, let alone people in other places.
If there were a crop that could fill people's stomachs and also had a high yield, those people wouldn't have to continue going hungry...
He hurriedly asked, "Is everything you're saying true?"
"Then how do we plant it?"
Mu Yue told him everything she knew.
After hearing this, Kangxi disregarded his concern for the Empress, picked up Muyue, and headed towards the Imperial Study.
He wrote down everything Mu Yue had said.
At the same time, Tong Guowei and Nalan Mingzhu were summoned.
But it wasn't named Suo'etu.
When Tong Guowei and Nalan Mingzhu arrived at the Imperial Study, Kangxi handed them the contents he had written earlier.
He didn't rush to speak.
After reading it, Nalan Mingzhu immediately realized the purpose of Kangxi's summons.
He immediately asked, "Your Majesty, where are the plants mentioned here?"
The Emperor didn't even summon Suo'etu for such an important matter, which suggests that he has been temporarily disliked by the Emperor.
However, as long as the Empress and the Crown Prince are there, this is only temporary.
As long as I accomplish this, even if Suo'etu is a relative of the Empress, he will not overstep his bounds.
Thinking of this, Nalan Mingzhu immediately said, "This servant is willing to personally do everything possible to bring benefits to the people of the Great Qing!"
Tong Guowei was a step behind, but he followed closely behind.
"Very well, I entrust this matter to the two of you. I hope for a good outcome!"
Before Mu Yue could even plant the ingredients she found, Kangxi had already plundered them all.
Looking at the now empty courtyard, Mu Yue pouted, looking somewhat aggrieved.
But she quickly lost interest in thinking about it.
Wei Caiwei is pregnant.
Judging from the timeline, this child was conceived during Wei Caiwei's first sexual encounter.
There are many concubines in the palace who have been favored many times, but have never become pregnant.
Wei Caiwei is truly lucky.
Moreover, this news came out together with the matter of improved breeds.
If the Emperor knew about this, he would surely dote on Wei Caiwei even more, and might even think she was a blessed person.
as predicted.
Just as Mu Yue had guessed.
A constant stream of gifts was sent into the palace where Wei Caiwei lived.
She was the talk of the town for a time.
Everyone in the palace knew how much Emperor Kangxi valued Wei Caiwei.
Seeing the Empress's dejected state, Mu Yue couldn't help but feel worried.
Empress Dowager is pregnant with her younger brother and sister, so she can't keep worrying about this.
A few days ago, Suo'etu sent another letter to the palace through a messenger.
He must be dissatisfied with Nalan Mingzhu's promotion and wanted his mother to whisper in his ear to get him a better job.
Empress Dowager was heavily pregnant, and Father Emperor had been favoring Wei Caiwei these days. Empress Dowager was sensitive and also had to worry about the affairs of the Hesheli family, so she had become quite haggard.
Mu Yue felt a pang of heartache seeing this.
She immediately decided to do something to make her mother-in-law happy!
Before Mu Yue could come up with a solution, something unexpected happened.
The Empress Dowager suddenly sent someone to serve her to find Mu Yue.
They emphasized that Wei Jingzhu should be brought along.
When Mu Yue heard this news, she had a strange feeling of unease.
But she still took Wei Jingzhu to Cining Palace.
"Moon greets the Ancestor!"
The Empress Dowager waved her hand casually, indicating that there was no need for formalities, and her gaze immediately fell on Wei Jingzhu behind Mu Yue.
"The maidservant serving Yue'er is quite beautiful; I haven't seen her much before!"
Mu Yue knew that Wei Jingzhu's face was eye-catching.
She never took Wei Jingzhu with her when she left Kunning Palace, lest she arouse the jealousy of the concubines in the palace.
Unexpectedly, Wei Jingzhu was not targeted by the concubines in the harem, but by the Empress Dowager.
What does the Empress Dowager want to do?
Mu Yue felt a little uneasy, but she still looked blank and innocent. "Yue'er is used to Chunju serving her, so I didn't bring Jingzhu with me."
"Why is the Ancestor suddenly so curious about Jingzhu?"
Mu Yue asked, feigning innocence.
The Empress Dowager glanced at Wei Jingzhu, who was standing behind Mu Yue with her head down and a timid expression, and a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes.
This palace maid is beautiful but lacks backbone.
Even if given to the emperor, it wouldn't necessarily garner much favor.
But there's no other good solution right now.
The Empress Dowager sighed silently, "I need someone to serve me. I've heard that this palace maid is meticulous and has excellent cooking skills."
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Mu Yue's eyes.
The Empress Dowager must know just how dazzling Wei Jingzhu's face is.
The Emperor had previously shown interest in Wei Jingzhu.
If she weren't his palace maid, Father Emperor would have taken her into the harem long ago!
The Empress Dowager is...
Empress Dowager was already heartbroken over Wei Caiwei's matter. If she agreed to the Empress Dowager's request, it would be tantamount to agreeing to Wei Jingzhu entering the harem.
If the Empress Dowager knew, she would be even more heartbroken.
Mu Yue didn't want that situation to happen, but she couldn't directly refuse the Empress Dowager. She could only frown slightly and say helplessly, "Yue'er also wants to agree to the Empress Dowager's request, but Brother Baocheng really likes Jingzhu's pastries. If..."
When the Crown Prince was mentioned, a hint of hesitation appeared in the Empress Dowager's eyes.
The Emperor is currently showering Wei Caiwei with affection. If we don't find someone to distract the Emperor, the incident involving Consort Dong'e might happen again.
But there's no rush to do this.
She glanced at Wei Jingzhu, then casually looked away.
"Alright, take this girl back with you!"
Mu Yue breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that the Empress Dowager had changed her mind.
As she walked out of Cining Palace, a gentle breeze blew by, and she was surprised to find that her back was already soaked with cold sweat.
She glanced at Wei Jingzhu beside her and asked, "Do you understand the Empress Dowager's meaning?"
Wei Jingzhu nodded.
If she were truly that stupid, she wouldn't have lived long enough for Mu Yue to take her away from the Xin Zhe Ku.
"Then what do you think?"
Mu Yue asked abruptly.
If Wei Jingzhu intends to marry into a wealthier family, she has no intention of stopping her.
But they won't help.
Wei Jingzhu knelt down in front of Mu Yue with a thud. "This servant only wishes to stay by Your Highness's side. Please, Your Highness, do not send this servant elsewhere!"
She didn't want to be the emperor's woman and live a life of intrigue and backstabbing.
