Looking at Yinzhen who had turned around and was facing her at some point, Jiang Ranli didn't know what to say for a moment.

After a while, Yinzhen smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "I asked too much, how could you be not well?"

At this time, Jiang Ranli adjusted his mentality slightly and said, "Thank you for your concern, Fourth Master. Everything is fine."

Upon hearing this, Yinzhen's eyes moved, and then he looked into the distance, as if admiring the beautiful scenery. After a long time, he spoke again, "The Emperor's health is getting worse and worse. He was able to walk out a few days ago, but now he can't even leave the door."

Hearing him talk about Emperor Kangxi, Jiang Ranli's eyes dimmed a lot. It was already November 5th, and the most important moment in history was not far away.

"Father Emperor will be fine," Jiang Ranli comforted softly, although it was not very convincing.

After a while, Li Dequan sent a young eunuch to say that Lord Geng had left and Emperor Kangxi asked them to go back for dinner.

Emperor Kangxi had a very good appetite today and ate a lot of food. Li Dequan was very happy watching him.

"Concubine, you are the best at what you do. The Emperor is so happy to see you that he even eats more food than usual."

Hearing him say this, Emperor Kangxi laughed and said, "I don't usually see you so smart, but today you are particularly clear-headed and sharp-eyed."

Listening to Emperor Kangxi's words, Jiang Ranli felt ashamed. She had done nothing wrong, she was just a little talkative.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is truly a lucky star. Now the weather is getting colder. It would be troublesome to summon the concubine over every day. It would be better to let the concubine stay and talk to you. This way, the concubine won't have to work so hard," said Li Dequan.

Hearing this, Jiang Ranli almost choked to death and coughed so hard that he couldn't tell east from west. Fortunately, the palace maid beside him handed him some tea in time, and he drank a full cup before he felt better.

It was just this incident that attracted everyone's attention.

"An Da only suggested that you fulfill your filial duties to the Emperor, but why did you choke?" Yinzhen said this, not knowing whether it was intentional or not.

Jiang Ranli quickly shook her head to deny it. If she dared to hesitate, she would be labeled as unfilial, and she didn't have the courage to do that.

"Fourth Master, you're joking. I was just too happy, so I was rude. Being able to be filial to the Emperor is what many people wish for, and I am the same. I just hope that the Emperor doesn't dislike me," Jiang Ranli explained embarrassedly.

Emperor Kangxi is a very respectable emperor and a good father. He is especially fond of Jiang Ranli. It is reasonable for Jiang Ranli to be willing to fulfill her filial duty to him. However, the current time is really worrying, but she cannot refuse.

"It's rare that you have such filial piety," Emperor Kangxi looked at Jiang Ranli with a smile, and then ordered Li Dequan to prepare a place for her to live.

Emperor Kangxi was the supreme ruler with many descendants, but he knew that they all had their own thoughts. Jiang Ranli was different. From all these years of contact, Emperor Kangxi knew that Jiang Ranli was the one with the purest thoughts among them.

If Jiang Ranli knew what Emperor Kangxi was thinking, she would be so ashamed that she couldn't even lift her head. She wasn't pure-minded, she just didn't care about power or the throne. She had all the other impure thoughts she should have, such as cherishing her life and not daring to anger the emperor, being obsessed with money, and being a foodie...

Due to Emperor Kangxi's love for her, Jiang Ranli stayed in Changchun Garden. Upon hearing the news, Yinzhen and the Tenth Prince were extremely worried. They didn't want Jiang Ranli to get involved in this troubled situation, but they couldn't prevent it despite all their precautions.
