This is Yongshou Palace, and the imperial concubine is about to become the queen. Even if she wants to see them quarreling, she will not allow them to act rashly in Yongshou Palace.

If they really started fighting in Yongshou Palace, and Kangxi and Xiaozhuang were furious, thinking that she was incapable of controlling the concubines, the position of empress that she had obtained would be lost.

Therefore, she was somewhat dissatisfied with Concubine Ma Jia who was causing trouble. As for Mu Sili, regardless of whether she was favored or not, she would not touch her just because she was obedient.

Concubine Tong looked at Mu Sili with some confusion. In her impression, she was someone who would never suffer any loss.

Even Concubine Ma Jia was mocking her like this, so why was she still acting like nothing happened? Could it be that she was plotting something?

If that was true, then she would have to make her a key focus. After all, the palace was so small, and it would be boring if there was nothing exciting to watch.

When Concubine Ma Jia saw that Mu Sili ignored her, she stopped talking. To her, Mu Sili's attitude was a sign of weakness.

She looked at Concubine Nala with some pride. Although they both lived in the Chuxiu Palace, it was her courtyard that Kangxi visited most often.

Therefore, in front of Concubine Nara, she did not take her seriously, and even felt that with her favor, she must be the top concubine.

Like Mu Sili, Concubine Nara ignored her. Instead, she smiled at Mu Sili and found a place to wait quietly for the imperial concubine to come.

Upon seeing this, Concubine Ma Jia glared at Mu Sili and her, then sat down directly.

She was already favored, and she was pregnant. This was the Yongshou Palace, so Concubine Tong did not bother with her. After all, she was the only one who could sit there.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Concubine Nianhulu appeared.

"Your humble servants and concubines pay their respects to the Imperial Concubine."

"Sisters, please stand up."

In another month, she will face these people as the queen, and the feeling will definitely be different then.

After the routine speech, she took Concubine Tong, Mu Sili, Concubine Nara and Concubine Ma Jia to pay their respects to Ningshou Palace.

At this time, Wan Fu had already arrived at the Cining Palace and was taken out to play by the prince.

"This concubine Nara is so bold that she dared to send someone to bring Wan Fu here without her company. If something unexpected happens, what will I do?"

Although she said so, there was no expression of anger on Xiaozhuang's face. In her opinion, Mu Sili's behavior was a manifestation of trust in her, so she naturally would not be angry.

Su Malagu knew what kind of person she was, so she smiled and explained to Mu Sili.

"What Gege said was that yesterday Concubine Nara promised His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that she would bring the Ninth Prince here today, but she had to go and pay her respects first, so naturally she had to send the Ninth Prince here first.

We'll have to pay our respects to the Cining Palace soon anyway, so sending the Ninth Prince over first will save us a trip. Besides, this is the Cining Palace, so it's very safe."

"You are willing to speak up for her, but it's also true that she does trust me, otherwise she wouldn't be so confident in letting Wan Fu and Bao Cheng play with her."

Seeing how seriously the prince treated Wan Fu, Xiaozhuang became determined to train Wan Fu into a wise minister.

Anyone can covet the position of the crown prince, or even become his enemy, but he cannot. He must be a lifelong brother to the crown prince.

Soon, Concubine Nianhulu came with a group of people to pay respects to the Empress Dowager. Wan Fu was very supportive and ran to the Empress Dowager and called her "Empress Mama" obediently.

The Empress Dowager doted on Kangxi's children because she had no children. She also wanted to adopt a prince and raise him in the palace, but Xiaozhuang did not allow it.

Kangxi was influenced by the previous emperor and was afraid of Khorchin. If they proposed the idea of ​​raising a prince, he would probably think too much.

"Empress Mother, Concubine Nara has raised this child well. Even at such a young age, she knows how to pay respects to her daughter-in-law. My daughter-in-law is truly surprised."

"He is indeed well-raised. Baocheng really likes his younger brother."

Concubine Nara did not react at all when she heard the compliment. Her son Yinzhi was still being kept outside the palace and she didn't know when he would come back, so she had no time for intrigue.

What she hoped most now was that Yinzhi could return to her as soon as possible. As long as he could return safely, she would be willing to be a concubine for the rest of her life.

But it was different for Concubine Ma Jia. She gave birth to four sons and one daughter for Kangxi. Although she only kept her daughter Rongxian, she is pregnant with another one now. Shouldn't she be praised for giving birth to a child at this time?

Empress Xiaozhuang caught a glimpse of the displeasure on Concubine Ma Jia's face, and her face instantly darkened.

This is the Cining Palace, her territory. How dare you show her displeasure in her territory? You must be tired of living, right?

Seeing this, Mu Sili moved to the side. She felt that if she didn't leave Concubine Ma Jia, she would be the target of anger.

"Ma Jia, concubine, you have a bitter face in the Cining Palace. Do you feel that I have treated you unfairly here?"

"No, I dare not. I just felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach, so I showed that look. Please forgive me, Grand Empress Dowager."

"Really? Why do I feel that what you say and what you do don't match? Since you don't want to come to my Cining Palace to pay your respects, don't come again in the future."

Concubine Ma Jia knelt on the ground with a pale face. These words were a bit serious. If she could not come to the Cining Palace to pay her respects in the future, the day when she would fall out of favor would not be far away.

"Grand Empress Dowager, please forgive me. I didn't mean to do that. I really didn't mean it. Please don't blame me. My stomach hurts so much..."

Perhaps because she was too nervous, Concubine Ma Jia had a miscarriage. Empress Xiaozhuang was worried that something might happen to her stomach and didn't want to argue with her.

"Su Ma, call a royal physician to examine her. If she's all right, have her sent back to Chuxiu Palace. Since she's pregnant, the baby should be her priority."

"Yes, come, call the imperial physician."

Everyone, led by Imperial Concubine Nianhulu, stood silently by. Some worried that if something happened to Imperial Concubine Ma Jia, they would be implicated, while others hoped that she would have a miscarriage.

Mu Sili had only entered the palace in the past two years and was not clear about the previous situation, but they knew that everyone in the palace knew how favored Concubine Ma Jia was.

If she were kind, they wouldn't have any complaints, but not only was she favored, she also always mocked them in front of them, which made people feel annoyed.

Now that she looks like she's about to have a miscarriage, they can only gloat over her misfortune. If the piece of meat in her belly is gone, they will see how she can still act so arrogantly.

After the imperial physician examined her and confirmed that she had just had a miscarriage and was not seriously injured, Su Malagu immediately had her sent back.

No matter how much Concubine Ma Jia pleaded, Empress Xiaozhuang did not look moved at all. She was a person who held grudges. If anyone dared to show that kind of expression in her Cining Palace, don't blame her for being merciless.
