The favored imperial concubine

Chapter 48

Although Kangxi had just declared in front of the concubines that he hoped that Nian Xilan would give birth to a little elder brother or a little Gege, deep down in his heart he was still looking forward to the little Gege who had the same appearance and temperament as Nian Xilan.At this time, Kangxi heard that Jing promised to mention the little elder brother, and couldn't help frowning slightly. He just waved his hand casually to make Jing agree to step down, but didn't say anything else.

Concubine Tong didn't know why, she only said that Kangxi's displeasure was only frowning because she hated Jing's promise, and she didn't think that Kangxi was thinking about her long-awaited little Gege in her heart, so she frowned because of Jing's displeasure.

Concubine Tong thought that she had been in the palace for many years and had never been lucky enough to give birth to a little elder brother or little Gege for Kangxi. She couldn't help being envious and jealous of Nian Xilan who was pregnant and loved by Kangxi.

In order to restore Kangxi's favor towards her, Concubine Tong smiled gently at Kangxi, and said in a virtuous and generous soft voice: "The concubine almost misunderstood the slander just now and misunderstood Concubine Xi, who was pregnant and wronged Concubine Xi, concubine I was very disturbed physically and mentally. I thought that Xipin was pregnant at a young age, and I must be very disturbed. Therefore, I dared to ask the emperor to allow Xipin's mother to come to the palace to stay with Xipin for a few days. Xipin I will be very happy to see my mother-in-law at this time."

Kangxi smiled and patted Concubine Tong's hand, "The concubine and I thought about going together, and I plan to allow Concubine Xi to summon her mother-in-law to accompany her in the palace at any time before she gives birth. As the concubine said, Xi The concubine is still young and has just entered the palace. She must be very disturbed when she suddenly finds out that she is pregnant. If she can have her mother-in-law by her side, she will feel much better, and it will be very beneficial to the heir in her womb. .”

Kangxi looked at the gentle and smiling Concubine Tong, and said slowly: "The concubine's words just reminded me that Concubine Xi is young and ignorant, and there are many taboos of pregnancy that I don't know. However, daily affairs are so cumbersome, and it is always necessary to have a careful and experienced nanny to remind me. Therefore, I decided to send Grandma Sun from Qianqing Palace to serve by Xi's side, and Nanny Sun would remind me , I can rest assured."

No one in the palace knew that Grandma Sun was the niece of Kangxi's wet nurse Sun. Because of this relationship, Grandma Sun, who entered the palace at the age of 13, had been serving Kangxi in Qianqing Palace. She was a quite respectable old nanny. , very trusted by Kangxi.

Concubine Tong Guifei saw that Kangxi actually sent Nanny Sun to Nian Xilan's side, and specifically explained that she was reminded by her. She just felt a wave of anger suffocated in her heart, unable to spit out or swallow it, but she still had to pretend to be angry. The generous and decent smile, and the soft-spoken approval of Kangxi's decision, really made Concubine Tong very annoyed, almost vomited a few mouthfuls of blood.

Seeing that it was already noon, and he was almost done beating, Kangxi said to everyone: "Just now when Concubine Xi left, her face was still a little bad, and I still have to go to Chuxiu Palace to see her. Concubine Tong Gui is not feeling well, no matter how little you Sit for a while and then go away, don't disturb Concubine Tong Gui's rest."

After Kangxi finished speaking, he stood up and led Li Dequan and others out of Jingren Palace amidst the crowd kneeling and sending them off, boarded the imperial chariot, and drove to Chuxiu Palace.

After Kangxi left, Concubine Tong Guifei, who was in a turmoil, naturally had no intention of continuing to deal with the concubines, so she let them kneel down early.

After Qiaoxin waited for the concubines to leave, she suddenly knelt down on the ground with a solid thud, kowtowed and confessed to Concubine Tong Gui: "Because the humble name of the servant has caused the concubine to be wronged, the servant really deserves it." Doom!"

Concubine Tong leaned weakly on the bed, the corners of her lips slightly raised, evoking a lonely smile, "Get up. I can't blame you for knowing what happened today. The emperor just borrowed you to give me a warning. .”

Qiaoxin stood up nervously, and obediently stepped forward to rub Concubine Tong's legs.

Concubine Tong frowned and pondered for a while, then murmured with a sneer: "I don't believe it, so Concubine Xi is so good? As the emperor's woman, even if she is noble and extraordinary, she will inevitably feel jealous. I think Can't wait to see how our emperor, who has always hated jealous women the most, will deal with Xi Concubine when Xi Concubine is pregnant and unable to attend bedtime and shows jealousy because the Emperor dotes on other women!"

Emperor Kangxi rushed to Chuxiu Palace, but Fang Wan, who was kneeling outside the palace to meet him, reported that Nian Xilan was very tired after returning, and fell asleep after eating only half a bowl of bird's nest porridge.

Kangxi waved his hand, ordered Li Dequan and others to wait in the front hall, walked into the bedroom alone, and walked slowly to the bed.

I saw Nian Xilan sleeping soundly with her sideways body hugging the brocade quilt, her slender eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyes.Kangxi stretched out his hand to gently caress the shattered skin on Fu Nian Xilan's cheek, and the corners of his lips slightly curled up because of the delicate and soft touch of his hand.

Kangxi stared at Nian Xilan's soft and beautiful sleeping face with a smile on his face, then his eyes fell, and he looked at Nian Xilan's belly.When Kangxi thought that his little princess with Nian Xilan was quietly growing up in Nian Xilan's womb, a strange warmth surged in his heart.

Kangxi suddenly reached out his hand under the brocade quilt, gently stroking Nian Xilan's still flat belly, he couldn't help but secretly wondered, after all, Kangxi had never felt such a feeling of eagerly anticipating the birth of a child for a long time.

Kangxi sat gently beside the bed, chatting with the child in Nian Xilan's womb with great interest, the slightly raised Danfeng eyes were no longer sharp, and the thin lips curled up in a pleasant arc, softening the majestic and cold face on his face line.

"Little girl, I am your Huang Ama. Do you know that you have to be obedient? Don't bully your mother..."
