Autumn is coming to the east, and minks are about to wear their clothes. Cheng'en Gong Tong's Mansion handed over a sign and wanted to visit the concubine Tong who had just been diagnosed with pregnancy. He had been so gentle for two days and specifically chose today's snowy weather to call him. They enter the palace.
Wen Xi leaned leisurely on the beauty's couch, holding a clay hand stove in her hand. With a bit of anxiety on her eyebrows, Zhu'er couldn't help but remind her: "Master, this is already the third time Duke Cheng'en has entered the palace. Yes, you don’t have to agree!”
Wen Xi raised her eyelids and said, "Let them see, can they still see the flowers?" Then she asked: "Tell people to watch Yu Ludai carefully and don't run out casually!"
This damn girl is so wild-minded that she actually dares to take advantage of the opportunity to go to Cining Palace to pay her respects and go to have a tryst with Cao Yong! She is not afraid of being discovered and making unpleasant remarks about her! When she comes back that day, Yulu Dai just said that he went to Linxi Pavilion to see the scenery, but he overheard the secret discussion between the secret concubine and Zhao Guiren. How could Wen Xi be a fool? This girl would never lie, and she would blush whenever she did. She was dressed so beautifully that day , looked like she was having a tryst with her lover, Wen Xi was already suspicious. So she asked Zhu'er to torture her daughter Lu Hen, and the little girl Lu Hen spit out all the truth. Wen Xi grounded the dead girl without saying a word. Already.
Thanks to this, Wen Xi learned that Zhao Guiren turned out to be a double spy, revealing Tong Concubine's every move to her, and hooked up with the secret concubine at some point. Originally, it was her own business to decide how many spies she wanted to be. Xi didn't bother to pay attention to it, but if her plot came to my head, don't blame me for being rude!
"Master, since Tong Bi became pregnant, you have been claiming to be sick and can't go out. Isn't this bad?" Zhu'er reminded Wen Xi carefully.
Wen Xi pinched a piece of candied crabapple that was pickled and full of flavor, and said lazily: "What's wrong?" They wanted to blame Tong Bi's pregnancy on Wen Xi, and Wen Xi naturally wanted to avoid any trouble. The possibility is that they will not give anything away and will never meet Tong Bin. But - although Wen Xi knew what they were planning, she had already asked people to keep an eye on Yonghe Palace and Jingren Palace. She did not expect that Tong Bin would be revealed so soon. The concubine is pregnant, and she is already four months old. It is said that the fetus is very stable.
In this month of winter, Wen Xi felt that she was about to hibernate from laziness. She didn’t know what tricks they were going to play. As long as Wen Xi stopped with silence, Tong Bin would naturally show off in every possible way. Zhao Guiren was her palace. The wife also restrained her sharpness and no longer dared to confront her, let alone her concubines. She was as honest as a good person.
"Is Jing'er okay there?" Wen Xi asked casually.
Zhu'er smiled and said: "The statue of the Seven Fortunes is stable. Didn't you send Hu Yu to have a look at it a month ago?"
"On the other hand, Concubine Cheng is getting busier and busier. Jing'er is getting heavier, so Nuan'er is sent to the palace to be taken care of by Concubine Cheng herself." There is a smile on Wen Ru's face, but Concubine Cheng is happy with such busy work. . She was really looking forward to having a grandson in one fell swoop, and everyone there personally agreed to Wan Jing’s wish. As long as she had a son in one fell swoop, she would not let anyone into the Qibele Mansion in the future.
In the morning, Wen Xi was too lazy to get up, so she ate something and took a nap. Unexpectedly, Xiaoluzi came in a hurry to report that Kangxi was coming. Wen Xi was surprised. He should not go to Jingren at this time. Is it right for the palace to see Tong Concubine? I had to get up quickly, freshen up a little, and go out of the palace to greet her.
Kangxi came here in a light carriage. He only brought a few personal eunuchs with him. They came on foot, and there was a lot of flying snow on their clothes and hats.
Wen Xi made a common courtesy and asked doubtfully: "Why did the emperor come here at this time?"
Kangxi just smiled softly and entered the palace together with his warm hands. He said in a gentle tone: "It's such a cold day, why do you need to come out in person? Your hands are so cold."
He asked Zhu'er to bring milk tea, and drank a cup of it slowly with Kangxi to warm his stomach. Since he hadn't gone out for a long time, Wen Xi naturally didn't bother to dress up, so he dressed very homely. His bun was an ordinary braided hairstyle, and his clothes were a gentle lilac color.
, just like an ordinary lady.
Kangxi entered the Nuan Pavilion and took a look at the half-eaten candied fruits and snacks. He looked helpless and asked: "How long will you continue to complain about illness?"
Wen Xi shrugged and said, "Let's wait until Tong Bi gives birth." - or she may have had a miscarriage.
"Are you still eating?" Kangxi stretched out his hand and twisted the tip of his warm nose and said.
Wen Xi hurriedly shook her head: "No!" - She was just afraid of causing trouble!
Kangxi sighed softly and said: "I have been asking people to secretly give Tong Bi the Xixi Decoction... This time it was an accident!"
Accidents happen all the time. Even future generations cannot achieve 100% contraception, let alone the Qing Dynasty. However, Wen Xi does not think that Tong Bin’s pregnancy is an accident. Although Kangxi valued his mother’s family, he also guarded against his relatives.
Therefore, Concubine Tong is not allowed to get pregnant.
"Tong Bi is a concubine, and she has been peaceful for many years." Kangxi said slowly.
Wen Xi understood what Kangxi meant. Tong Bi was not the same Concubine Tong as before, and Kangxi blamed himself for the death of the little princess born to Concubine Tong, so he could not prevent Tong Bi from giving birth again.
Just because Kangxi asked her to give birth, would she definitely be able to give birth? Wen Xi had great doubts.
Seeing that Wen Xi didn't speak, Kangxi just stared at Wen Xi's seemingly uncaring face for a long time and said, "Yinlu and Yinli have grown up. Have you ever thought about raising another child?"
Wen Xi immediately shook her head fiercely and said, "I don't want to raise other people's children!" Even if Kangxi allowed her to give birth, he might not allow her to raise them! But don't set your target on me!
"Then..." Kangxi hesitated for a long time and then said: "Let's become a concubine."
"Become a concubine?" Wen Xi was stunned, yes, she can only be a concubine. If she wants to raise Tong Bi's children, she must have a status that cannot be lower than hers, which is the fifth concubine. Concubine Xuan is a concubine.
As if he is going to die tomorrow, Concubine Hui's eldest brother is already tit for tat with the prince. Kangxi does not want the eldest brother's power to continue to expand and threaten the prince's status one day; Concubine Rong's third elder brother also has a style of his own.
, Kangxi would not give any more help to the third elder brother; Concubine Yi already had two sons, and it was not suitable to raise a prince; so it was most suitable to become a concubine, and the seventh elder brother would not participate in the fights of his brothers and just live his own small life.
What's more, he has leg problems and has no hope of becoming a big official. He is Kangxi's most trustworthy son.
"If she gives birth to an elder brother, he will be given to his concubine to raise." Kangxi paused and said, "In the future, I will promote her to the title of concubine to make up for it."
"What if the child is a princess?" Wen Xi asked.
"Then let her raise it by herself!" Kangxi said in a relaxed manner.
"What if..." Wen Xi looked at Kang Xi's face, "What if something unexpected happens?" For example, what if she can't give birth or has a miscarriage?
Kangxi's face hardened and he said: "The imperial doctor said that she wanted to be stable so much that there would be no accidents."
Only then did Wen Xi realize that her question was a bit abrupt, and she quickly added: "I just thought that Tong Concubine was suddenly pregnant...it reminded me of Concubine Jia from back then!" Concubine Jia, also known as Yi.
Ermu, when she got pregnant for the second time, it should be said that she was Princess Roujia. She used Ermu's talent in medicine to force herself to become pregnant.
Kangxi's expression became more solemn, but he said: "The person who took care of Tong Bin's fetus was the imperial physician I sent."
Wen Xi said lightly, could it be that Tong Bin's fetus is really very stable?! After all, it is not an easy task to bribe Kangxi's people. Wen Xi silently counted the time, and the secret concubine and Zhao Guiren conspired.
At that time, Tong Bin was already two months pregnant, but she had kept it a secret. Only the Zhaogui people discovered it, so she planned with the secret concubine to abort Tong Bin's pregnancy and then put the blame on her? But she didn't know, so she
Next, how will they play their cards?
Wen Xi was playing around in her head, and was suddenly hugged by Kangxi, who spoke with a warm tone on her cheek, "I don't want her to be pregnant...but now that she is, I can't
——" Kangxi's tone suddenly condensed, "Since you gave birth to Yinli in the thirty-second year, the concubines in the harem have had nothing to do, and there have been some unpleasant rumors outside."
It has been six years in total. Compared with Kangxi's previous breeding ability, none of the concubines have become pregnant in six years. It can indeed make people outside doubt Kangxi's ability. However, Wen Xi can't wait to roll her eyes. The old man in his forties or fifty years old
If you can’t give birth, you can’t give birth. What’s the big deal?! Do you still expect to be as powerful as you were when you were twenty?!
"I know you feel uncomfortable..." Kangxi hugged Wen Xi more tightly, "When you were pregnant with Yinli, I promised you... I didn't do it."
"What did the emperor promise me? I have long forgotten it." If you keep Kangxi's words in your heart, you are called a fool!
Kangxi sighed deeply, "I promised you not to ask other concubines to have children, but I... I broke my promise again."
He broke his promise again, yes, this was not the first time that Kangxi broke his promise. His nose was a little sour, Wen Xi lay on his shoulder, and just said lightly: "I didn't take it seriously, so the emperor doesn't have to feel guilty." As soon as the words came out.
, Wen Xi felt that she was almost choked by his suddenly strong arm! - Why are you so crazy?! I'm just telling the truth!
Suddenly, Kangxi let go of his hand, lowered his head and stared at Wen Xi's red face, saying: "Tong Bi must give birth to this baby. If you want to raise her, bring her. If you don't want her, raise her as a concubine."
If you don't like Tong Concubine Jin Feng, I will ask her to remain in the concubine position."
Kangxi couldn't help but chew Kangxi's words carefully, and then frowned: "What do you mean by this, Your Majesty?! Do you think that I will harm Tong's children?!" When he said the words, he became angry without realizing it! What if it happens again in future generations?
, my husband made another woman pregnant, he should have beaten him to death with a big stick!!
"That's not what I meant!" Kangxi also frowned.
"If you don't mean that, what do you mean?!" Wen Ru's tone became more and more aggressive.
"I know that you don't like Tong Bin." Kangxi stared into his gentle eyes that were almost on fire, "Because of Yi Wan's relationship, you have always hated Tong Bin. It's just that Shu Lu did something wrong, and I will punish her.
Tong Bi has nothing to do with it."
Wen Xi couldn't help but sneer. Ever since she returned to the palace, she had always thought that Kangxi would not be suspicious of her! Unexpectedly, she was still suspicious after all! The warmth and tenderness in the past really almost made her fall! (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome

ps: Is Yu Ludai so annoying? I burst into tears and lost a lot of subscriptions. I hope it can be raised again, and I won’t dare to write about this girl anymore. Let’s continue the palace fight.
