Rong Fei is not honored

Chapter 630 Pregnant for 3 Months

Secondly, there's Lady Tongjia. I wonder how she'll react when she finds out her palace maid is pregnant.

Although she personally recommended this palace maid, and no matter what happens in the future, she will bear the mark of the Tongjia clan, the Tongjia clan's petty nature might lead them to feel humiliated.

Kangxi would get a headache just thinking about these things.

In the past, Emperor Kangxi could have simply pushed such a thorny matter onto the Empress and let her decide what to do.

But now, seeing the Empress's frail and sickly appearance, Kangxi couldn't bear it.

Kangxi stopped speaking and sat quietly waiting for Liang Jiugong to bring him the news he wanted.

The Empress was not a talkative person to begin with, and aside from official business, she didn't know what else to say to His Majesty, so the hall fell silent for a moment.

The world's most distinguished couple didn't feel anything amiss; on the contrary, they enjoyed the tranquility. One of them was worrying about what to do next, while the other took the opportunity to rest and rejuvenate.

But the servants in Kunning Palace didn't think so. They felt that the atmosphere inside the palace was too oppressive, making them afraid to even breathe.

Several of Empress Niohuru's confidants were especially anxious.

This is clearly a great opportunity!

His Majesty was unwell and his imposing manner was unusually weak. His Majesty was not the kind of person who did not cherish women. He took this opportunity to speak his mind or just chat about everyday things. After a few times, their relationship naturally grew closer.

The person opposite is indeed His Majesty, but he is also the master's husband. How can one treat one's husband with such a businesslike attitude?

The emperor wasn't worried, but the eunuch was; the master felt the current way of getting along was perfect and was determined not to change. Several times, Granny Yang tried to give her mistress a meaningful look, hoping she would be more proactive, but the mistress saw it and pretended not to notice.

With the Emperor and Empress remaining silent, how could she, a mere servant, possibly speak up? Even if she was extremely unhappy, Granny Yang could only endure it.

"Your Majesty." After Liang Jiugong returned, the Empress was the first to react and gently reminded Kangxi.

When Kangxi came to his senses, he saw that besides Liang Jiugong, Tongjia Shi was also standing at the entrance of the main hall, and his scalp tingled instantly.

He really didn't want to face Tongjia at this time.

The Empress noticed that His Majesty's body tensed up the moment he saw Lady Tongjia, and she seemed to be deep in thought. It seemed that no matter how much His Majesty disliked Lady Tongjia, her status as a daughter of the Tong family was still a very special guarantee.

"Come in, all of you," Kangxi said irritably.

Liang Jiugong, who was glared at by the Emperor, was on the verge of tears. He didn't want to either, but the Imperial Concubine insisted on seeing the Emperor, and there was no way for a servant like him to stop her.

Well, it's not that difficult to handle. The Emperor's attitude towards Consort Tongjia has softened a lot recently. Who knows, she might turn things around completely one day?

When dealing with such ancestors, it's best not to offend them if possible.

Kangxi didn't even lift his eyelids, and asked directly, "What are you doing here?" His unwelcoming attitude couldn't be clearer.

Consort Tongjia's beautiful, smiling face froze. She felt she had lost face in front of Niohuru. After a moment, she put on a smile again and said, "Your Majesty, I have come to congratulate you."

The Empress questioned, "What is the source of your joy?"

"Wuya is pregnant, isn't that a joyous occasion?"

At this moment, Consort Tongjia was extremely smug, looking at Niohuru provocatively.

Consort Tongjia's reaction was completely unexpected by Kangxi, but it also represented a certain possibility. He stared at Consort Tongjia with dark eyes until she could no longer maintain her smile.

"Liang Jiugong, how many months pregnant is Wuya?"

According to procedure, he should have first asked if the imperial heir in Lady Uya's womb was stable, and then asked how many months pregnant she was. However, Lady Tongjia's reaction aroused Kangxi's suspicion, and he could no longer care about Lady Uya's belly at this moment.

"Your Majesty, it has been...it has been three months." After saying this, Liang Jiugong lowered his head, not daring to look at His Majesty's expression.

Although the Empress already knew about this beforehand, she still showed her surprise in front of Emperor Kangxi.

Surprisingly, Kangxi was not angry; instead, he laughed.

"Three months, great, that's wonderful!"

Liang Jiugong, who was familiar with Kangxi, was not relieved at all; on the contrary, he was even more worried. In the cold weather, he was soaked in sweat in no time.

As Emperor Kangxi looked at Lady Tongjia, whose face was gradually turning pale, a thought suddenly struck him, and he asked, "It seems that Wu Sangui's ascension to the throne disrupted your plans?"

How could a woman three months pregnant have absolutely no abnormalities?

Tongjia clan definitely knew that Wuya clan was pregnant long ago. In fact, when the other party pushed the palace maid out that day, it wasn't because she cried and complained that she just wanted to save face.

This child is her ultimate goal.

Otherwise, as the head of the Chengqian Palace, Lady Tongjia could have easily given her a bowl of contraceptive soup.

After all, after Lady Uya served the Emperor, Kangxi neither bestowed any rewards nor a title upon her, as if nothing had happened. Lady Uya remained just a palace maid, no different from the other palace maids who served the Emperor in the Qianqing Palace.

Even a servant with such audacity could not possibly conceal the matter perfectly. It was Lady Tongjia who was covering for her, all for the sake of the day when she would be pregnant and stable three months later.

If Wu Sangui hadn't declared himself emperor at that time, Chengqian Palace would have already spread rumors of auspicious omens and then had that palace maid surnamed Wuya faint in public.

In public, Lady Tongjia naturally wanted to demonstrate her benevolence by summoning a royal physician to examine the palace servants before openly announcing the good news.

"Tongjia clan, what exactly do you want to do?"

Consort Tongjia knelt on the ground, her head bowed, seemingly unable to meet Emperor Kangxi's gaze.

However, where no one could see, those eyes, which were originally quite beautiful, were filled with malice.

What was she trying to do? She naturally wanted to kill two birds with one stone.

Originally, she planned to hold a banquet this month, under the guise of repairing relationships, to invite the Empress and those vile women, Consort Rong, Consort Hui, and Consort Yi.

If they don't come, it means they won't forgive themselves and will be labeled as petty; if they do come, they will come into contact with Uya.

Even if they never got close, as long as they had contact with them, Wuya would faint and reveal that she was pregnant. At the same time, the imperial physician would say, as instructed, that Wuya had come into contact with something bad, which caused the pregnancy to be unstable.

The world is vast, but the imperial heirs are the greatest!

Even without concrete evidence, they can't clear their name of this mess.

As for not knowing that Lady Uya was pregnant, and therefore not targeting the imperial heir in her womb? Ha, the Empress manages the harem with great power and influence, and Consort Rong and Consort Hui have given birth to several children, so they are naturally more perceptive than others.
