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

The young eunuch moved very quickly.

He was not as reckless as the palace maid who had delivered the message before.

Once inside, he looked around and walked towards Liang Ruhai.

Liang Ruhai frowned slightly as he looked at the unfamiliar young eunuch, wondering what the eunuch wanted from him.

Seeing that the Emperor's attention was currently focused on the princes and princesses, he took a few steps back and asked softly, "What do you want with me, Eunuch?"

The young eunuch didn't rush to speak. Instead, when no one was paying attention, he took out a few taels of silver from his pocket and stuffed them into Liang Ruhai's hand.

The silver coins weren't much, and they were still warm.

When the young eunuch gave it to them, there was a hint of reluctance in his eyes, but his actions were very decisive.

Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.

Having served Emperor Kangxi for so many years, Liang Ruhai's ability to understand others' thoughts had long been unparalleled.

He immediately realized that the young eunuch in front of him had something to say to him.

Although this young man is of lowly status, he knows a thing or two about manners.

Liang Ruhai didn't mind giving the young eunuch a chance.

He calmly put the silver, still warm from his body, into his pocket, gave the little eunuch a look, and gestured for him to state his purpose.

The young eunuch breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Liang Ruhai accept the silver he offered.

He quickly lowered his voice and whispered in Liang Ruhai's ear, "This servant is a servant of Consort Wei."

Upon hearing the name Consort Wei, Liang Ruhai suddenly felt the silver in his hand burning hot.

The Emperor was clearly more displeased with Consort Wei just now.

If I were to do Wei Pin any favors in the short term, I would not only not gain any benefits, but I would also be implicated.

He wouldn't do something that loses him money.

Liang Ruhai was just about to take out the silver from his pocket and return it to the little eunuch in front of him.

Then the young eunuch in front of her continued in a low voice, "Consort Wei just had a little accident and gave birth to the Eighth Prince prematurely!"

The young eunuch's tone was somewhat complicated when he mentioned the Eighth Prince.

For a moment, it was difficult to discern the emotions expressed by the young eunuch.

He paused for a moment, then immediately recalled the noisy palace maids who had been making a ruckus before the full moon celebration began.

Could it be that what that palace maid said was true?

This is really troublesome!

Liang Ruhai glanced at Kangxi not far away, trying to guess his mood at that moment.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally stepped forward and walked to Kangxi's side.

Before Liang Ruhai could speak, Kangxi abruptly asked, "What are the people serving Consort Wei giving you money for?"

Liang Ruhai immediately realized that he and the little eunuch were under Kangxi's watchful eye. Cold sweat broke out on his back, and he looked somewhat nervous.

But having weathered many storms, he managed to remain composed and spoke without any emotion, recounting the news the young eunuch had just told him.

Upon hearing the information revealed by Liang Ruhai, Emperor Kangxi immediately realized that he had misunderstood Consort Wei.

He frowned slightly, a hint of regret creeping into his heart.

"Are the child and Consort Wei alright?"

Liang Ruhai shook his head with difficulty and said in a low voice, "The little eunuch did not reveal the child's or Consort Wei's condition. He only said that Consort Wei had just given birth to a little prince, so there should be no major problems."

After a moment of silence, Kangxi instructed Liang Ruhai beside him, "Send some rewards to Consort Wei!"

The following day at noon, everyone in the palace learned that Consort Wei had given birth to a prince on the day of the Empress's child's full-month celebration.

The emperor, however, did not appear.

The concubines in all the palaces felt that Consort Wei had fallen out of favor and were eager to make a move.

However, they did not forget to prepare gifts to send to Consort Wei's palace.

Mu Yue learned of this from the servants of Cining Palace and immediately recalled what had happened at the full moon ceremony yesterday.

She frowned and immediately ran to the Empress Dowager. "Grandmother, Yue'er also wants to visit Consort Wei and my eighth brother!"

The Empress Dowager looked at Mu Yue, who stood before her with expectant eyes, and after a moment of silence, instructed Su Ma La Gu beside her, "You and Yue'er take my gifts to Consort Wei's palace!"

Su Ma La Gu nodded, prepared a few gifts that would never go wrong, and led Mu Yue toward Consort Wei's palace.

"Your Majesty...you must do justice for me..."

Mu Yue had just arrived outside Consort Wei's palace and hadn't even entered when she heard her pleading voice at the door.

Curious about what Consort Wei was planning, she lowered her voice and said to Su Ma La Gu beside her, "Aunt Su Ma, it doesn't seem convenient for us to go in. Why don't we wait at the door for a while?"

She had a mischievous glint in her eyes, making her look lively and adorable.

Sumalagu watched Muyue grow up.

Yesterday, Mu Yue looked dejected and couldn't muster any energy to do anything.

Sumalagu was very worried.

She was still considering how to make Mu Yue happy.

Seeing Mu Yue's change from dejection upon arriving at Cining Palace yesterday to excitement, Su Mala Gu's lips curled up slightly, a hint of indulgent smile on her face.

Following Mu Yue's suggestion, she stood at the door of Consort Wei's room.

"What's wrong with you that you need me to settle this score for you?"

Kangxi spoke casually, clearly not taking the matter to heart.

Wei Caiwei was able to gain Emperor Kangxi's favor, which naturally meant she had some skill in understanding his temperament.

She saw through Kangxi's attitude, and her hands, hidden under the covers, clenched involuntarily. She lowered her face slightly to hide her anger, but her tone remained soft. "Your Majesty... I attended the full moon celebration of the Sixth Prince and the others yesterday. On my way back, I was bumped by a cat, which is why I gave birth to the Eighth Prince early!"

"Who knew...who knew..."

As Wei Caiwei was speaking, she suddenly covered her face and started crying, looking very pitiful.

Looking at her like this, Emperor Kangxi couldn't help but feel a little more pity and tenderness for her.

He half-embraced Wei Caiwei, his voice gentle, "Tell me what happened. If you've been wronged, I will definitely help you!"

What Wei Caiwei wanted was exactly what Kangxi said.

Her sobs subsided slightly, and with reddened eyes, she looked up at Kangxi. "I was offended by someone, which caused me to give birth to the Eighth Prince prematurely. The Eighth Prince was not born at full term, so he has a foot ailment..."

While speaking, Wei Caiwei kept observing Kangxi's expression.

When Emperor Kangxi heard that the Eighth Prince had a foot ailment, his brow furrowed slightly. "What ailment?"

Wei Caiwei did not explain, but instead gestured to the nanny who was taking care of her to bring the Eighth Prince over.

The nanny, trembling with fear, carried the Eighth Prince to Emperor Kangxi and carefully unwrapped the swaddling clothes covering him.

The Eighth Prince's uneven legs were instantly exposed to Kangxi's view.

When Kangxi saw the Eighth Prince's appearance, his expression immediately turned somewhat unpleasant.

He reached out and touched the Eighth Prince's leg.

They also gained a general understanding of the Eighth Prince's situation.

His sharp gaze fell on Consort Wei lying on the bed. "Why didn't you send someone to tell me sooner?"
