"What's wrong?" Kangxi turned around impatiently and saw that it seemed to be a chain reaction. People behind Wanyi had all fallen down. Even a fool could tell that some of them did it on purpose.

"Wan'er!" Kangxi hesitated for a few seconds, holding the beauty and his beloved in his hands, before putting down Wei Mingzhu and checking on Wanyi.

"Is something wrong? Quickly go and fetch Physician Lu!" Kangxi said anxiously.

"Your Majesty, my stomach hurts!" And my buttocks hurt too. Even though I landed on my buttocks, the impact still jolted my stomach, causing it to cramp.

"Quickly carry Consort Chen to the nearest palace." The Imperial Noble Consort hurriedly arranged. Although one problem had just been resolved, another had arisen, she was happy to see this, especially seeing Wanyi's painful appearance, which made her extremely happy.

"Yes!" How ironic that Kangxi didn't go to embrace Wanyi, but instead brought in a sedan chair.

Kangxi changed his mind as soon as he saw her. He didn't even have time to drink the ginger soup before rushing to see Wanyi. His anxious look, as if he was afraid something had happened to her, made the other concubines, who were used to the favor of Consort Chen, grit their teeth in hatred. The Empress Dowager even vowed to get rid of Consort Chen. She thought to herself that the Aisin Gioro family really does produce a lot of romantics! This Kangxi is a qualified emperor who was carefully cultivated by his aunt. He cannot be ruined by such a two-faced woman.

"How is it? Why isn't she awake yet?" Kangxi looked at Wanyi, whose eyes were tightly closed on the bed, and paced around anxiously like an ant on a hot pan.

"Your Majesty, your actions will disturb Consort Chen's rest. Why don't you leave first? Consort Chen is fine now, but this time the pregnancy was quite large, and she will need to take good care of herself for the next two months."

Physician Lu exaggerated the situation, saying that in theory, such a severe shock would have been fatal, yet she had only experienced a slight miscarriage, which was truly strange.

"Then you all take good care of Consort Chen, I'll be right back!" Kangxi hadn't forgotten that there were still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with.

"Yes!" Hibiscus and the others who came out to serve replied.

"Your Majesty, I have made arrangements for the concubines and palace maids who fell and were injured. How is Sister Chen?" The Imperial Noble Consort greeted Kangxi as soon as he came out.

"It's all over now. The most important thing is to rest and recuperate!" Kangxi's face was solemn as he thought about the chaotic events of the day. He suddenly began to doubt the Imperial Noble Consort's ability to manage the situation.

"It's good that she's alright. I've investigated, and it turns out she often slips on her feet, which is why she pulled down Sister Chen. She couldn't stop and tripped, which is why she ended up like that." As for the truth, Kangxi didn't see it anyway, so it's up to her to decide.

"Oh! By the way, the imperial physician just said that Consort Guo is one month pregnant. It's because of this incident that the imperial physician was able to confirm it. Congratulations, Your Majesty!" The Imperial Noble Consort congratulated her on the surface, but in her heart she was filled with hatred. So many people could get pregnant, why couldn't Pianpian? They all deserved to die.

Inside the main hall, the Empress Dowager, Wei Mingzhu, and several uninjured concubines were already waiting. As soon as Kangxi sat down, the Empress Dowager couldn't wait to protect her lady-in-waiting, Wei Mingzhu.

"Although Mingzhu is a lady-in-waiting by my side, her official rank is not lower than yours, Consort De. There is a saying that 'princes are subject to the same laws as commoners.' I wonder how Your Majesty intends to punish Consort De, after all, it was wrong of her to implicate others!"

After learning what had happened, the Empress Dowager turned her anger towards Consort De, saying that such a vicious person was not fit to serve the Emperor!

"Your Majesty, I did not push her; she jumped down on her own!" Consort De finally realized that this maid had tricked her.

"Your Majesty, no matter what, I am still a human being. How could I possibly take my own life?"

The beauty shed tears, and all that could be seen were tears. She was so pitiful to behold, which was incomparable to the aggressive demeanor of Consort De. The scales tipped in favor of Wei Mingzhu, but the concubines in the harem did not think so!

"That's true, but it's not impossible. For a mere first-rank servant to be saved by the Emperor is a blessing earned over several lifetimes!"

Consort An was displeased by that foxy look and spoke without any mercy.

"With just a few words, Consort An has already decided that it was me. I have nothing to say. I have already been embraced by the Emperor, and I have no way to repay his life-saving grace. If Consort An can frame me like this, I have no face to live!" Wei Mingzhu said, and stood up as if she was about to crash into the wall.

"Quickly, stop her!" The Empress Dowager quickly ordered Granny Qiu beside her. Granny Qiu was quite capable, causing Wei Mingzhu to crash into a fleshy wall, making Granny Qiu cry out in pain.

"How could you be so foolish! I will stand up for you. Why are you trying to kill yourself?" the Empress Dowager said, exasperated.

"Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, I know I was wrong. I was so angry that I did this foolish thing!" Wei Mingzhu said, sitting down and crying softly.

"Consort An should watch her tongue!" the Empress Dowager said displeasedly. If this Wei family member was ruined, she would make Consort An pay.

"Your Majesty, Consort An is being disrespectful. Why not punish her by confining her to her quarters for two months and making her copy the palace rules a hundred times?"

While Emperor Kangxi appeared to be punishing Consort An, he was actually protecting her, since he still needed to rely on Consort An's grandfather, Li Yongfang.

"It is His Majesty's decision." The Empress Dowager gave her a warning look.

"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I will accept the punishment!" Consort An's words and actions revealed her dissatisfaction, but she had no choice but to submit due to the authority she was in.

"Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, it is inappropriate for me to stay by your side or be released from the palace. Perhaps I should become a nun!"

Who would dare to ask a woman who had been embraced by the Emperor to continue serving the Empress Dowager? Wouldn't that hasten their death? The jealousy of the palace women would be their death sentence once the matter was over.

"Your Majesty, look at this mess! I can't bear to see such a fine girl shave her head and become a nun!" The Empress Dowager threw the question at Kangxi, who was still deep in thought.

"Would you be willing to enter the harem? That way you can stay in the harem and live a life of comfort and ease!"

Emperor Kangxi left the decision to Wei Mingzhu herself; in his eyes, she could only enter the inner palace.

"Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, how can I possibly serve you in this state?" Wei Mingzhu, ever the shrewd one, avoided giving Kangxi a direct answer.

"Of course you can, but if you become a concubine, you'll be a mistress, so you can come and keep me company from time to time!" This was something she would be happy to see, so how could it not be good?

"Is that so! I'll do anything to keep the Empress Dowager company!"

Wei Mingzhu said sadly, but she was secretly overjoyed. She never expected that she would become a concubine after all the twists and turns. She was hidden in the Xin Zhe Ku. Her father was thinking of sending her out of the palace when she reached a certain age, fearing that she would die young.
