Rong Fei is not honored

Chapter 195: Put on a show?

"Oh, look at my memory. I forgot that you can't stand the fatigue. Someone, please give me a seat."

Ji Nai then sat down tremblingly. If she stood for a while longer, she would probably be shaken. In fact, when facing the Empress Dowager, Ji Nai was under great mental pressure.

If it wasn't for Su Malagu's rescue, she really couldn't stand it, which would be disrespectful to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager would also think that she did it on purpose, just to express her dissatisfaction and threaten the child in her belly.

Fortunately, things did not develop to that point.

"Ma Jia, you are really capable."

"I don't understand what the Empress Dowager means."

"I heard that it was you who persuaded the Emperor to have a good talk with me that day and let the Empress Dowager raise the Third Princess?" Although the Grand Empress Dowager was asking a question, her tone was very firm.

It seems that there are people around him, or around Kangxi. Otherwise, even if Kangxi came to look for the Empress Dowager on the second day of his stay at Zhongcui Palace, there may be other reasons. How can he be so sure?

Ji Nai pretended to be surprised and asked, "How did the Empress Dowager know?"

The Grand Empress Dowager ignored Ji Nai's doubts. She had no interest in answering him now. She snorted coldly, "You are good at ordering me around."

Ji Nai hurriedly stood up and apologized, "I didn't mean that. I just felt that it would be more appropriate for the Third Princess to be raised by the Grand Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager.

At least, we can’t let that child leave his parents at such a young age and be involved in the disputes in the palace.”

"Can she escape now? Why was Shoukang Palace so lively before? Do you really think I don't know?"

Ji Nai's heart tightened, but he still asked blankly: "Before, before, didn't the Queen want to show her filial piety to the Queen Mother and let the Queen Mother take a look at the children?"

"Filial piety? I think the queen's filial piety is all poisonous."

"Could it be that the poison of Prince Chengqing was in Shoukang Palace?" Ji Nai knelt down, "I am guilty. I just thought that the queen had good intentions at the time, but I didn't realize that it actually contributed to the death of Chengqing."

"You are indeed guilty, but not here."

"I don't understand?"

"Don't you understand? Wasn't it you who was behind all this?

First, he suggested that the emperor hand over the third princess to the Empress Dowager to raise, which solved the emperor's worries and allowed the third princess to enter the palace smoothly. After that, he induced the Empress to use the third princess to poison Chengqing.

This step by step is really well calculated, pushing the Queen and Concubine Hui into the abyss. Not only did you solve two major problems, but you also avenged your son. "

"Ah?" Ji Nai was really confused. What was the Empress Dowager talking about? Soon, Ji Nai realized that she had lost her composure and said, "I am really wronged!"

Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager suddenly laughed and asked Su Malagu to quickly help Ji Nai up. "How come you are still so timid, kid?"

Su Malagu joked, "Since the Empress Dowager knew that Madam Ma Jia was so timid, why would she scare her like this? Look, she's even kneeling down. If the Emperor knew about this, he would be heartbroken."

Ji Nai didn't understand what this master and servant were up to.

Su Malagu turned to explain to Ji Nai: "To be honest, the incident in Shoukang Palace was outrageous. After this incident, the Empress Dowager's prestige in the palace has greatly decreased. Isn't it because the Grand Empress Dowager is afraid that people in the palace will look down on the Empress Dowager?

This is why I have to pretend to vent the Empress Dowager's anger, but Concubine Hui is the victim, the Empress has a special status, and she is under house arrest, so I can only ask you to play this drama? I never thought that I would really scare you. "

"So that's how it is. I'm so scared."

"You are such a coward, kid, and yet you dare to help the emperor with his advice. As a result, you have caused such trouble."

In fact, the Grand Empress Dowager was still somewhat dissatisfied. She had wanted the Empress Dowager to raise a prince so that his second half of life would be guaranteed, but she was given a princess who was not of the Emperor's blood.

How could the Empress Dowager not be annoyed?

However, he had not found a suitable opportunity before and was worried that Kangxi would think he was expressing his dissatisfaction, so he took this opportunity to get angry.

"I feel that the Third Princess is blessed. When she was born, she was favored by His Majesty and became the Emperor's adopted daughter instead of the eldest daughter of a prince. This blessing will surely bring good luck to Shoukang Palace."

The Empress Dowager didn't even raise an eyelid. She said it was nice and blessed. Not to mention, the Emperor adopted this child just for her to raise him. How could the status of the Emperor's adopted daughter be a couple?

Moreover, even if someone was plotting, she caused such a big incident as soon as she entered the palace, and even lost one of the emperor's princes. Is this a blessing? Or more like bad luck.

Ji Nai continued, "For example, it can bring blessings to the prince."

The Empress Dowager finally responded, "Oh?"

Seeing that the Empress Dowager was becoming interested, Ji Nai breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he suppressed his sadness and told her what he had decided long ago.

"The Empress Dowager also knows that Chengrui's body... Even with the imperial physician's assertion, I am still unwilling to give up on him, but to do so would require a lot of effort.

After the child is born, I am afraid that I will not have enough energy, so I ask the Empress Dowager to raise the child."

The Empress Dowager was a little bit unconvinced. Was Ma Jia so stupid to send away another prince for a child who had a high probability of dying? Or rather, the Empress Dowager did not believe that the women in the palace would be so stupid.

"I still remember that Qiqige liked Chengrui very much in the past. If she is still alive, she would approve of my action."

When the Empress Dowager heard Qiqige's name, she was in a trance for a moment. But the other party mentioned Qiqige in order to make her agree to this matter, so it seemed to be true.

"For Chengrui, you can endure the pain of separation between mother and child. It is enough to do this." Even if Chengrui dies in the future, as the biological mother, no one can say that Ma Jia is not fulfilling her duties.

But, "The Emperor actually agreed?"

"Your Majesty doesn't know yet. I was thinking of asking for your consent first, and then going to see Your Majesty."

Since Ji Nai has taken the matter under Kangxi's wing, the matter is settled.

"Then I hope what you said is true. That child is really a blessed one."

Although Ma Jia was lucky, her belly was good, and the imperial physician diagnosed that she was pregnant with a prince. But there are always unexpected things, right? What if this is a princess?

The Empress Dowager was still somewhat worried.

Ji Nai knew what the Grand Empress Dowager was worried about, but she couldn't say that the baby she was pregnant with was a prince, so she could only promise, "Third Princess's blessing will definitely bring a prince to Shoukang Palace, but I'll have to trouble the Empress Dowager again when the time comes."
