Chapter 18: Queen Tong Jia's Blessing of Pregnancy

Cining Palace

The Empress Dowager was flipping through Buddhist scriptures and reading.

"Master, you have been reading for a while, drink some tea to moisten your throat."

Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager did not take the tea. She raised her eyes and looked into the distance.

After an unknown amount of time, she sighed quietly, "His Majesty Xuanye is getting more and more powerful."

The thundering means hit the pain point directly, and before she could react, the harem was purged and the forces were separated.

However, the more powerful Kangxi became, the more worried the Empress Dowager became. After all, she had seen how good he was to Tong Jia.

The emperor was obviously more courageous than the previous emperor. But if he really made the same mistake, what would happen to the Qing Dynasty? Then, she would really become the eternal sinner of the Qing Dynasty.

The Empress Dowager's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she finally made a decision:

"The emperor has feelings for Tong Jia, and she is pregnant and still possesses the emperor. How can the royal family have more children? In this case, you can't blame me for interfering."

She sighed, her eyes deep, "But Concubine Tong is too young to move the fetus now. When she is pregnant for three months and the baby is firmly seated, I will tell the emperor to let her go to the Cining Palace to take care of the baby. With me watching over her, I think the emperor will be relieved and can enter the harem without any worries."

Kangxi often went to Jingren Palace to visit Concubine Tong and stayed overnight, and this had happened for several days this month.

Although he treated his concubines equally without any partiality, the Empress Dowager had never seen Kangxi stay overnight with a pregnant concubine, not even when the empress was pregnant.

The Empress Dowager was finally paranoid about Shunzhi's affairs, and because of this difference, she felt that she could not let it go.

Kangxi would never have thought that although he had been very restrained, the Empress Dowager still felt wary because he only stayed overnight for a few days during her pregnancy.

Su Malagu heard this and saw that the Empress Dowager was still in a dilemma, so she decided to go all out and said, "My Lord, giving birth is like walking through the gates of hell. When Concubine Tong gives birth to a prince, why not take advantage of the opportunity..."

She gestured at her neck.

The Empress Dowager's fingers trembled slightly. She thought for a while and shook her head, "No, if the Emperor knew, our relationship as grandparents and grandchildren would be broken. Although the Emperor is more powerful now, his temperament is still as paranoid as when he was a child. If you touch his things, he will never let it go."

"How can I guarantee that if I leave, Khorchin will encounter any disaster. Furthermore, if the little prince grows up and knows the truth and blames me, it would be fine. But if he blames Xuanye, and the father and son of the royal family turn against each other, it would be a bad omen for the Qing Dynasty."

It would have been fine if the emperor had no feelings for Tong Jia, but he really did have feelings for her. Besides, he was already missing his biological mother who died young. If this cousin of his really died at her hands, it would have driven the emperor as crazy as the previous emperor.

She had already seen her Fulin go mad, and she must not commit murder again because of it.

"Master, the Emperor is heading towards the Cining Palace and will be there soon." At this moment, a young eunuch walked in from outside the door.

The Empress Dowager was surprised and wondered why Kangxi came at this time.

But that didn't stop her and Su Malagu from talking.

Soon, Kangxi arrived.

Unlike in the past years when he never showed his emotions, he had a smile on his face and was obviously in a very good mood.

The Empress Dowager secretly wondered what had happened to make him so happy.

"Grandson pays respects to the Royal Madam."

"Xuan Ye is here. Why is he here at this hour? Is there something wrong?" Many guesses flashed through the Empress Dowager's mind, but she still looked like a kind grandmother.

Kangxi laughed out loud, very happy: "Grandma, my grandson does have great news to tell you." He paused, with joy in his eyes: "Wu Chen diagnosed that Tong Jia's baby is twins!"

Thinking that his and Qing'er's child would be born in a few months, Kangxi became more and more excited.

When he heard the news, he was so happy that he didn't know what to do. However, after the joy, he couldn't help but feel worried. Having twins is a happy event, but it also comes with great risks.

Especially since no one knows what treacherous people are hiding among the concubines in the harem, and the Empress Dowager has always been prejudiced against Qing'er. Now that she knows that Qing'er is pregnant with twins, she should be able to let go of her partiality to some extent.

It's no wonder Kangxi thought so. After all, he had three surviving children, but the Fourth Prince had died of frailty not long ago. Now the Second Princess was still taking medicine as usual. If the Second Princess was also gone, he would only have the Fifth Prince left.

How could the Empress Dowager not be anxious? She must have been very anxious, very anxious! Kangxi himself was also anxious, but there was nothing he could do. The harem had been like this for so many years.

Now, Qing'er's pregnancy is already a great joy, and now we know that she might be pregnant with twins, which is double happiness and undoubtedly a great omen. The Empress Dowager must be extremely happy and will definitely do her best to keep the baby.

Sure enough, the Empress Dowager was very excited when she heard this: "Really?"

"Of course it's true. The imperial physicians of the Imperial Hospital have confirmed it, so it can't be wrong. Wu Chen knew it when he examined Tong Jia's pulse a few days ago, but he said that the period is still young and he can't be sure whether it is true. I can only wait and see."

"Therefore, I have stayed at Tong Jia's place for a few more nights in the past few days. Today, Wu Chen has confirmed that Tong Jia is pregnant with more than one child. As soon as it was confirmed, I couldn't wait to come and tell the Royal Madam."

With just a few words, Kangxi found a perfect excuse for staying overnight for a few days.

In fact, he did not know it very early, but only found out today. However, when he told the Empress Dowager, he deliberately mixed up the time. After all, he was very keenly aware that the Empress Dowager had a problem with Qing'er.

When a person has a grievance against another person, they will always magnify that person's shortcomings, and whatever she does seems to be wrong.

Only by releasing what she cares about most can this prejudice temporarily disappear.

"Good, good, this is a blessing for the Qing Dynasty!" The Empress Dowager's dissatisfaction with Sheng Huan eased because of Kangxi's words. She felt relieved to know that the Emperor was not doing it out of love.

She felt more comfortable with the idea that he was interested in Long Si than in a woman.

Kangxi's lips were curled up all the time, and he said sincerely: "I and Tong Jia are still too young. Tong Jia's baby will be taken care of by the Royal Madam."

"Look at what the emperor said. This is my grandson. I will naturally protect him well."

The royal family had never seen twins before, so this was a very auspicious sign. So the original plan to bring Tong Jia to the Cining Palace to nurse the baby would not work.

It is better for pregnant women to stay in their own territory. They will not feel suffocated and will have a sense of security. They don’t have to meet and greet this old woman every day. Maybe they will feel better, and it will be better for their lives.

If the emperor wants to see her, then he can go. After all, the blessing of twins is indeed pleasing, the Empress Dowager convinced herself.

She looked at Kangxi and asked with concern, "How many months has Tong Jia been pregnant?"

"Less than three months." Kangxi said.

"It is indeed too early in the pregnancy, and the fetus is not in the right position yet." The Empress Dowager pondered for a moment and said, "In this case, let's not let anyone in the palace know about this for now. It won't be too late to talk about it when the pregnancy is more advanced and stable."

"What the Royal Madam said is true."

……

The days of pregnancy passed quickly. Although harmful things were often seen in the first few months, such incidents became less frequent after Kangxi's major reorganization of the harem.

Later, the Empress Dowager herself took care of Sheng Huan's baby, and no one dared to interfere anymore.

After all, the two giants have personally protected it, and no one dares to pluck the tiger's whiskers at this time.

Although everyone is wondering why the Empress Dowager took personal care of Sheng Huan's baby.

It was not until they saw Sheng Huan's belly getting bigger and bigger that they knew the answer. It turned out that she was pregnant with more than one baby.

The concubines in the harem suddenly realized what was going on.
