Chapter 359
Chapter 359
In Kangxi's heart, he was not as good as Ma Jiashi, so what about her son Yinzhen? Was he also not as good as the ones who came out of Ma Jiashi's belly?
Kangxi was not unaware of his double standards, but he didn't care about the resentment rising from the side, nor did he feel guilty at all. How could Nara be compared with Ji Nai? One was the woman he loved, and the latter, oh, he was already doing her a favor by sparing her life.
It seems that over time, Nara has forgotten his own situation. To prevent Nara from getting too aggressive, it is time to give him a warning.
While thinking about how to deal a blow to Nara clan, Kangxi also did not forget to observe Ji Nai's expression. Ji Nai was still pregnant, so even if he really wanted Ji Nai to have a certain amount of power, there was no need to rush.
Fortunately, Ji Nai's face was rosy and he didn't show any sign of fatigue.
However, now that the Queen is useless and unable to perform her duties as the Empress, the harem is still too messy. None of the concubines are worry-free, and the affairs are complicated. Ji Nai cannot be dragged down.
But apart from Nara, who else can be used?
Ji Nai understood what Kangxi meant and knew that he didn't want her to work too hard, but in fact, she really didn't need to worry about it.
Firstly, the Nanny Li beside him came from the Qianqing Palace. In such a competitive place, she was able to occupy a place, which shows her ability.
Secondly, after Li Ma came to Zhongcui Palace, she was not stingy. After surrendering, she wholeheartedly helped Ji Nai manage Zhongcui Palace and train the palace maids. Not to mention that Yusheng, Yuqing and Xiao Anzi benefited a lot, Yuqin, Yuhu and others under them also grew up quickly.
With so many people helping him, it was very easy for Ji Nai to handle things. As for some things that were not so easy to handle, wasn't there still the big enemy, Nara?
It’s not that Ji Nai trusts Nara so much, but she understands that before Yinzhen returns to the palace, no matter how much Nara hates her or how much she wants to harm her child, she will endure it.
For Nara, who had lost the favor of Kangxi, Yinzhen was her last hope. She no longer had the chance to have another child.
Nara couldn't afford to gamble, nor did she dare to gamble.
What Ji Nai had to do was to tie Nara to his boat before Yinzhen returned to the palace. Friendship was not as reliable as interests. As long as Nara found that it was more profitable to form an alliance with him, she would not turn against him easily.
After all, in Nara's eyes, the two of them had never had a mortal feud.
Although, this is not the case for Ji Nai.
Ever since he knew that the current Nara was a time traveler, Ji Nai had never thought of imposing the grudge between himself and Concubine Hui in his previous life on Nara. However, Ji Nai would never forget how Nara cursed Chengrui shortly after he was poisoned.
Even if it was because Kangxi deliberately indulged Nara's arrogance so that she could confront the queen, so what? Kangxi did not deliberately provoke Nara's ill will towards Chengrui. That was Nara's own "intention".
"Your Majesty, there is one thing I need to confess to you."
Kangxi's hand, which had been restrained because of the presence of outsiders, stopped stroking Ji Nai's waist.
In the face of Nara's shocked gaze, Ji Nai said slowly, "Some time ago, Concubine Suochuolo asked me for help, saying that Concubine Yiergenjueluo wanted to harm her."
Huipin thought that Ma Jia was crazy. She brought up such matters of the underworld in front of Kangxi. Moreover, why did Socho Luo leave the child's biological father alone and ask Ma Jia for help?
Wasn't it because she was worried that Kangxi would not believe it, or even suspect that Socho Luo had ulterior motives? As a result, Ma Jia directly sold out Socho Luo?
Just as Huipin thought, Kangxi did not believe what Socho Luo said at all. He had a very bad impression of this person and always felt that she had too many ulterior motives.
When Kangxi heard Ji Nai's words "call for help", his first reaction was what was Suochuoluo planning again? His disgust for Suochuoluo and his worry for Ji Nai made Kangxi speak in an aggressive tone:
"What does she want to do now? You don't have to worry about it anymore."
Ji Nai glared at Kangxi and said, "Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that something will happen to the heir to the throne? What if what Concubine Socholo said is true?"
Seeing that Kangxi's eyebrows were still tightly knitted and his face looked very unhappy, Ji Nai patiently advised: "It's better to be safe than sorry. If what Concubine Suochuolo said is true, we can prevent the royal heir from being harmed by making arrangements in advance. But if it is not true, it will only take more effort. Besides, isn't it normal for a mother to worry about what will happen to her child? As the old saying goes, if you raise a child for a hundred years, ninety-nine of them will fail. That's it."
"Aren't you afraid that the Suochuoro clan is plotting against you?"
"So what? I have His Majesty behind me. As long as His Majesty trusts me, I have nothing to fear. Besides, if I don't agree to this, I'm afraid Concubine Sochora will be terrified before giving birth. But if I run into trouble, I can ask His Majesty for help."
Kangxi looked at Ji Nai with heartache, "But you shouldn't worry about this. I want you to pick up the palace affairs, but..." Socho Luo was indeed about to give birth, but Ji Nai was still pregnant. Her Ji Nai was pregnant and had to take care of other women and children. Kangxi felt like being stabbed by a needle in the heart.
Kangxi even had an impulse to ask Ji Nai to stop caring about these messy things and just take good care of the baby. But reason told Kangxi that if it was really for Ji Nai's good, he couldn't keep her in a greenhouse. Palace power, favor, and offspring are the foundation of a concubine's life. Kangxi can give the latter two directly, but palace power still needs Ji Nai to establish it herself.
"I know Your Majesty loves me, but you know me. My children are my first priority. I will never wrong myself if I feel I am unable to do anything."
Having said that, Kangxi still didn't want Ji Nai to get involved in this matter. As he was feeling distressed, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Huipin out of the corner of his eye.
Huipin here is still sneering at the way Ma Jia and Kangxi get along. In her opinion, when love is deep, a man will naturally think highly of you, but how long can this relationship last?
If Ma Jia continued like this and confessed everything to Kangxi, when Kangxi no longer loved her, Ma Jia would definitely be eaten by this heartless man until nothing would be left of her face or bones.
But wasn’t that the case with me before?
So, believing in men will bring bad luck.
Huipin was emo, and her hair stood up instantly. Her sixth sense told her that she was being watched by danger. Then the next second, she met Kangxi and secretly said that it was not good.
