Chapter 295 Ji Nai is pregnant
No, the words were normal, but why did Kangxi's tone sound wrong? Ji Nai turned his head and ran straight into Kangxi's meaningful eyes, almost drowning in them.
After reacting, Ji Nai took a deep breath, then covered Kangxi's eyes with his hands expressionlessly.
Kangxi's eyes went dark, and he was about to take Ji Nai's hand away, but unexpectedly, the other party whispered in his ear angrily: "Your Majesty! I am still pregnant. If you seduce me at this time, won't you hurt the enemy by a thousand and hurt yourself by eight hundred?"
After hearing Ji Nai's words, Kangxi's body heated up, but he had to calm down because of the word "pregnant". Feeling the reaction on his body, Kangxi smiled bitterly and buried his head in Ji Nai's neck. This was clearly hurting the enemy eight hundred and hurting himself a thousand.
It took a long while for Kangxi to calm down and return to the demeanor of a proper emperor.
Seeing the huge contrast between Kangxi and his father, Ji Nai laughed out loud without mercy. Just as he was about to make a few mocking remarks, Cheng Rui rushed in, shouting, "Where is my mother? How is my mother?"
Then Ji Nai saw Chengrui's small figure like a gust of wind, and it came to him in the blink of an eye.
Chengrui's speed was so fast that Kangxi was startled. He was afraid that the child would hit Ji Nai's stomach, so he picked him up before Chengrui pounced on Ji Nai.
"Ama?" Chengrui felt a little strange when he was picked up. Ama seldom hugged him now. But Chengrui could understand it. After all, he had grown up and could not always stay in Ama's arms like he did when he was a child.
"Where are your rules? You barged in without waiting to be notified, and even forgot to greet and perform formalities?"
Chengrui was not afraid of his father's fierce face. He hugged Kangxi's neck and said, "Chengrui didn't mean it. Chengrui was just too worried about mother. Mother is okay, right?" Children are the most sensitive. From the expressions of the people and the atmosphere in the hall after he came in, he could sense that mother should be fine, otherwise his father would not be in the mood to tease him.
"How did Cheng Rui know?"
"That's what the Empress Dowager said."
"Oh, then when Chengrui left Shoukang Palace, did he say hello to the Empress Dowager?"
"Don't worry, mother."
Chengrui is not stupid. He naturally knows that he can be more unrestrained in front of his father and mother, but when he is outside, no matter how anxious he is, he must not lose his manners.
"That's good." Hearing that Chengrui did not behave disrespectfully in front of the Empress Dowager, Ji Nai breathed a sigh of relief. He turned around and found that something was wrong with Kangxi's expression. "Your Majesty?"
"It's okay." It was indeed nothing serious, but the conversation between Ji Nai and Cheng Rui reminded him that he seemed to have lost his composure in front of the disfigured Empress Dowager.
If it was just the Empress Dowager, it would be fine, but the Grand Empress Dowager was there too. He felt a headache when he thought about the Grand Empress Dowager staring at him in the future, telling him earnestly and at length that the emperor should not be tempted.
"Ama?"
"Ok?"
Kangxi came back to his senses when Chengrui called him.
"You haven't told Chengrui yet, what happened to your mother, why did she faint?"
Ji Nai looked at Chengrui helplessly. She had just told Chengrui that she was fine, but the child didn't seem to believe it and insisted on asking Kangxi again.
The kid didn't even think about it. If something really happened to him and he didn't want Chengrui to know, then what was the point of him asking Kangxi? Kangxi would naturally help to conceal it.
"It's okay. Your mother fainted because she was pregnant with your brother. The doctor said it's nothing serious."
Chengrui's eyes lit up instantly, "Mother, am I going to have a younger brother again?"
"Mother thinks that this is my younger sister." It is her little cotton-padded jacket - Rong Xian.
Chengrui looked at his mother, then at his father. Why did his father and mother say different things?
"It's only been a few months, and even the imperial physician couldn't diagnose it. How do you know it's a princess?"
"Of course mother and daughter are in tune with each other. This baby must be a princess." Ji Nai stroked her belly and smiled gently. But when she raised her head, she saw Kangxi's frown and immediately became unhappy. "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this? Don't you like daughters?"
"Of course not." Kangxi denied it flatly.
"Your expression doesn't say that." Ji Nai was determined to get to the bottom of the matter. He had ignored Rong Xian in his previous life. Rong Xian's so-called favor was only slightly better among her sisters. She was not even as good as a prince who was not favored by Kangxi.
"Really not. I like princesses very much, too. What's more, this is our child. But it's not easy to be a princess of the Qing Dynasty. It's better to give birth to a prince."
Ji Nai immediately stopped talking. OK, what Kangxi said was true. The Qing Dynasty's policy of pacifying Mongolia meant that these princesses had to devote their lives to it. Wasn't that the case with Rong Xian in her previous life?
"What if I really gave birth to a princess?" Ji Nai leaned lightly in Kangxi's arms, with an unconcealable sadness on her face.
After a long silence, Kangxi said, "There will always be a way."
There was a flash of surprise in Ji Nai's eyes, but he said nothing. He just held Kangxi's hands that were around him.
What Kangxi just said was that there would be a way, not empty words like "he would like their princesses". Does this prove that Rongxian doesn't have to marry to Mongolia in this life? In the previous life, not all princesses of the Aisin-Gioro family went to Mongolia, there were exceptions. If that's the case, why can't it be Rongxian?
Chengrui looked at his parents who were oblivious to the people around him. Although he was also in his father's arms, he felt that he was excluded and had a feeling that he couldn't get in.
Not long after, the news that Concubine Rong was pregnant again spread throughout the harem.
On that day, countless porcelain pieces were broken into pieces on the floor of the master's house.
In the Cining Palace, after receiving the news, the Grand Empress Dowager sighed to Sumalagu: "This Ma Jia family is so lucky." The Empress Dowager of Shoukang Palace was really happy for Rongpin. Ever since she raised Saiyinchahun, she loved the child as much as she felt guilty towards Rongpin. Now, she has another child.
After hearing the news, Huipin was in a daze, touching her belly from time to time. Originally, she and Ma Jiajinai were not much different. It can be said that they had the same starting point, the same bannerman background, and the same first pregnancy, but since when, the gap between them has become larger and larger.
Huipin came back to her senses and met Nanny Wu's concerned and anxious eyes, and comforted her: "Don't worry, Nanny, I have let it go a long time ago."
Even if she was unwilling, what could she do? With the reality like this, did she have any other choice? The incident of attacking Chenghu was indeed in the past, but Huipin also understood that she would never be favored again in the future. This was Kangxi's punishment for herself. Although the death penalty was spared, the living punishment could not be escaped.
But Huipin was not sad at all. If she, an outsider, had suffered such a fate, Hesheli's ending would be even worse than hers. Soon, her Chengqing would be able to rest in peace.
The next day, Kangxi went to the Cining Palace again. He had left in such a hurry the day before, and whether the Empress Dowager minded or not, he should come and apologize.
However, even though Kangxi still had a serious face today as usual, anyone could tell that he was in a good mood.
The servants in the Qianqing Palace have the most say on this point. Ever since they learned that their mistress, Concubine Rong, was pregnant, the Emperor has been serving them very well. Even if they make mistakes in front of him, they will be forgiven.
In this regard, Kangxi even explained to Liang Jiugong, "I am just praying for the child." Liang Jiugong was so annoyed at the time. My Highness, you are the emperor. Even if you reward someone who made a mistake, how dare a servant like him make a comment? How could he bear it if you had to explain it to him?
The Empress Dowager looked at Kangxi, who was filled with joy, and could not help but remind him, "Although Ma Jia's pregnancy is a happy event, it is still her duty. Your Majesty should not give her too much honor and favor, or she will become the next Nara clan."
Kangxi's face suddenly turned ugly, and the atmosphere in the hall became cold. Liang Jiugong and others on the side lowered their heads, pretending that they did not exist, while Su Malagu was hesitant to speak, her princess!
Even between a mother and her son, the actions of the Grand Empress Dowager would cause a rift between them, let alone between a generation of grandparents and grandchildren. Especially between His Majesty and the Grand Empress Dowager, there was the death of Empress Xiaokangzhang.
At the beginning, Tong Jia somehow found out about this matter and reported it to the Emperor. Although there was no response afterwards, it was probably because the other party did not believe it. After all, there was no evidence. However, it still made the Emperor feel a little bit resentful.
