[Quick Wear] Puhua Fairy is blessed with a long pregnancy
Chapter 16: Queen Tong Jia's Blessing of Pregnancy
Kangxi stayed for a while, talked to Sheng Huan for a few words, hugged her tenderly for a while, and then left.
Before leaving, he reminded her to take good care of the pregnancy and not to harm her body. If she needed anything, she should send someone to the Qianqing Palace to let her know.
Sheng Huan naturally agreed with a smile.
……
"Your Majesty, the Queen has just sent someone over to say that dinner has been prepared. Please take a look..."
Not long after walking out of Jingren Palace, Liang Jiugong had cold sweat on his forehead. After all, His Majesty was with Concubine Tong just now, and the Empress knew this but still sent people over. Wasn't this making things difficult for him, a eunuch?
Even if you want to compete with Concubine Tong, you must not bring harm to these minions.
Kangxi didn't have so many thoughts now, so he ordered: "Send someone to tell the queen not to wait for me, let her use it first, I will go to see her in the evening."
"Whoo."
Liang Jiugong understood what he meant and gave his disciple Li Dequan a look. Li Dequan understood and left the team and went towards Kunning Palace.
When the emperor returned to the Qianqing Palace, Liang Jiugong handed a cup of tea to Kangxi.
"Your Majesty, please have some tea."
When Kangxi took it, Liang Jiugong was bending over and could easily see the hand Kangxi extended. However, that hand was covered with clearly visible marks at some point, and some places had even broken skin and were bleeding.
This wound actually looked like it was caused by the master himself! How much strength did the master use to break the skin? But why did His Majesty do this? ! No one in the palace could hurt him.
Liang Jiugong's heart sank. His Majesty had no injuries on his hands when he went to Jingren Palace, which meant...
When he thought of a certain idea, Liang Jiugong successfully frightened himself and broke out in a cold sweat on his back. He always felt that there was something wrong with the Emperor since he left Jingren Palace.
"Your Majesty, you need to call the imperial physician to bandage your hand..." His lips trembled as he chose his words, fearing that he might say something wrong and anger Kangxi.
If he didn't call the imperial physician, the Empress Dowager would never forgive him if she knew about it. After all, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and his body cannot be harmed.
Kangxi glanced at him, his eyes were cold and fierce, and he said, "This matter cannot be made public. Go and get the golden medicine in the box."
Liang Jiugong was fixed by Kangxi's gaze. Hearing this, he knew that the Emperor wanted to apply the medicine secretly. He was afraid that he would be too slow and offend him, so he bowed hurriedly and went to get the medicine.
But his heart was filled with huge waves. Liang Jiugong wondered what had happened between His Majesty and Concubine Tong in Jingren Palace just now that made His Majesty's hands like this?
When Liang Jiugong went to get the medicine for the wound, a figure appeared below Kangxi and presented him with a document.
"Your Majesty, this is the result of the investigation into Li Guihua's case. Please review it."
Li Guihua is also known as Li Ma.
……
Kunning Palace
After receiving Li Dequan's reply, Empress Hesheli could not hide her disappointment, but she could not show it on her face.
She wondered if His Majesty had grown tired of her? Otherwise, why would he not dine with her? The last time she had dined with him seemed to be a month ago. Now that she thought about it, had that much time passed?
After Li Dequan left, she was already in a sullen state due to her wild thoughts.
"Master, His Majesty is very busy, so I guess he has something important to attend to. Besides, didn't Eunuch Li say that His Majesty will come over in the evening, so Your Majesty should make preparations early?" Seeing that her master had a grim expression, Bi Qing was afraid that she would get stuck in a dead end, so she hurried to comfort her.
When Empress Hesheli heard this, a trace of barely detectable melancholy flashed across her eyes. She touched her belly and said, "You are right. The most urgent thing is to get pregnant."
As for other unnecessary things, there is no need to think about them. She is the Emperor's first wife, and no one can surpass her.
Neither the Niuhuru clan could do it, nor could the Tonggiya clan!
But it had been four years since she gave birth to Chenghu, and she had never been pregnant, so she was really worried.
Empress Hesheli suppressed her chaotic thoughts and forced herself to cheer up. The Emperor would be coming over tonight, so she had to be prepared and try to get pregnant as soon as possible.
At night, Kangxi came and entered the inner chamber. He listened to the queen talking until he heard the queen mention Jingren Palace. He asked without warning: "Does the queen know Li Guihua, the head nanny of Jingren Palace?"
When Empress Hesheli heard this, her eyebrows jumped. She had a bad premonition, but her face was puzzled. She seemed to have no idea why Kangxi mentioned this person. She responded:
"Of course I know, but she is not dishonest. She has been imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment by His Majesty. His Majesty, what happened?"
Kangxi stared into her eyes, but could not see anything. Perhaps it was because of her good disguise. He looked casual, but his eyes were full of coldness: "That lowly slave has such a big guts. It's not that he has dirty hands and feet, but he is plotting to murder the imperial concubine and the heir to the throne."
Empress Hesheli's heart skipped a beat, and she looked shocked: "What? Murdering the imperial concubine Longsi?!"
Her shock seemed unmistakable.
Kangxi glanced at her and said in a dignified manner: "If Concubine Tong had not been lucky, I'm afraid the traitor would have succeeded."
Perhaps she had something to hide, Empress Hesheli always felt that Kangxi's words were hinting at something.
She unconsciously clenched the handkerchief in her hand, as if praying: "May the Eternal Heaven bless you, luckily Concubine Tong is fine."
She paused, a hint of inquiry flashed through the depths of her eyes. She pretended to be puzzled: "How could Li Guihua be so generous as just a maid? I wonder if His Majesty has found out who is behind this?"
Upon hearing this, Kangxi looked at her meaningfully.
Queen Hesheli was stunned, and then her heart tightened.
Sure enough, I heard Kangxi's cold voice ringing in my ears.
"The Queen, do you know that the mastermind behind this that Li Guihua revealed is you?"
Empress Hesheli felt a chill in her heart, her face turned pale, and she knelt down quickly: "Your Majesty, even if I had the guts to do it, I would not dare to murder the imperial concubine Longsi. Before this, I had never met Li Guihua a few times. I know I am innocent, and I don't know why Li Guihua wants to attack me. Please, Your Majesty, make the decision for me!"
Kangxi did not speak. After Empress Hesheli knelt for a while, he felt that it was enough, so he stepped forward and helped her up: "I know what kind of person the Empress is, but you are in charge of the six palaces, you must not allow such villains to appear in the palace again."
"Yes, I will definitely clean up the six palaces."
"It's too busy for the queen to be in charge of the harem alone. It's inevitable that there are things that she can't take into account. Now that there are Concubine Tong and Concubine Niu Hulu in the harem, they can help the queen to manage the six palaces."
Kangxi's words made Empress Hesheli feel cold in her heart. The Emperor wanted to divide her palace power.
"Concubine Tong is pregnant now, so it's not good to let her work too hard. The Queen should arrange some light work for her, such as working in the Imperial Kitchen." Kangxi said nonchalantly but made the final decision.
"Yes." Empress Hesheli felt bitter in her heart, but she had to accept it. It was the imperial kitchen, where there was so much money and profit. The Emperor really loved his cousin.
Of course, Empress Hesheli also knew that the Emperor was punishing her in disguise.
Kangxi was satisfied when he saw that she did not behave abnormally.
The Queen was indeed not the mastermind behind the incident, but as the one in power in the harem, she turned a blind eye and even secretly provided convenience, which is a crime.
"It's getting late, let's get settled."
"I will help Your Majesty change his clothes."
"No need, the Queen is tired today, let the palace maid come."
After changing their clothes, the emperor and the empress lay on the bed but did not move any further.
Strange bedfellows.
In the darkness, Empress Hesheli could no longer suppress the bitterness at the corners of her lips. She tightened her hands as she touched her belly. If the Emperor did not favor her, how could she have a child?
……
Time flies, and a month passed in a flash. Just as Sheng Huan thought, Kangxi did not come to Jingren Palace in this month.
But even so, he sent Liang Jiugong to deliver the reward. She didn't even know what had happened between Empress Hesheli and Kangxi. She and Concubine Niohuru both had the right to assist in managing the six palaces. Therefore, the concubines did not notice anything unusual.
Now Kangxi has returned to his former self and treats the concubines in the harem equally.
However, for some reason, the number of visits to the Queen's Palace has decreased. If one is more attentive, one will find that Ma Jia and Nara have not been favored by the Emperor recently.
Sheng Huan thought that Kangxi would not come to Jingren Palace for some time. Unexpectedly, when she woke up from her nap at noon, she found that Kangxi had come and was sitting beside the bed looking at her.
"Cousin, you're here." She got up in surprise. Because she had just woken up, her eyes were still a little confused, but they were soon filled with joy. Unknowingly, tears appeared in her eyes.
"Why are you still crying..." Kangxi wiped the corners of her eyes.
Who would have thought that before she could say anything, she had already crashed into his arms, crying silently: "Am I dreaming? My cousin really came to see me. I thought he was angry with me and didn't come to see me for so long..."
Kangxi felt wetness in his chest, but the woman's voice did not bring out that. This silent crying made him feel an indescribable bitterness in his heart.
Then, he felt a pain, as if some bug was drilling and gnawing at his heart. Kangxi thought that during the past month of his struggle, it would be more accurate to say that he was torturing his cousin rather than torturing himself. In the end, he had hurt her heart.
He felt both guilty and pity, and surging emotions surged out from the depths of his heart again. It was clearly his fault, but he still let his cousin suffer the pain of his neglect.
His heart ached, and he put his big hand on the woman's back without hesitation to comfort her. His unfathomable eyes were already filled with tenderness: "Qing'er, it's not your fault. I'm not angry. It's my fault. I ignored your feelings. I won't do this again in the future."
Kangxi's voice was soft but serious. A bud somewhere in his heart had sprouted without him noticing when, and would grow bigger and bigger when watered by the spring rain.
He thought that no matter what kind of feelings he had for his cousin, he should not ignore her.
Cousin... Qing'er is not someone else.
He called the name Qing'er so affectionately that he himself did not seem to realize it. Or perhaps he did realize it, but this time, he did not feel that there was anything wrong.
Sheng Huan buried her head in Kangxi's arms, she carefully felt his emotions, a smile flashed across her red eyes.
Look, we’ve caught him.
