"Your Majesty is right. I will prepare the gift right away and make sure it will make you look very proud."

"Madam, you still understand me."

Unlike the Queen and Concubine Tong, Concubine Rong was so angry when she heard the news that Mu Sili was pregnant that she smashed all the porcelain in the side hall.

"Why is she so lucky? I am pregnant. As long as I give birth to a prince, I will definitely be promoted to a concubine, and the emperor will also look upon me again.

But now that she is pregnant, how can the emperor still see me? How can I regain my favor? No, I am the only pregnant woman in the palace, no one else can."

A hint of cruelty flashed in Rong Guiren's eyes. She was the most favored person in the harem. Why should Mu Sili compete with her?

Her hand unconsciously touched her belly. After this child was born, she would not have any more children. She must send him to the throne.

As long as he sits on the throne, she, as his mother, will naturally become the empress dowager. When she sits on the throne of empress dowager, all those who brought shame to her will have to pay the price.

Thinking of this, she stopped making a fuss. The most important thing at this stage was to give birth to the child safely.

Rong Xian was sent to the South Third Prison. Without her around, it would be difficult for her to use her to do anything.

Since I can't use her to win favor, I'll just let her stay in the South Third Prison, so I don't have to spend more time on her.

When Concubine Hui in the main hall heard that she had smashed the porcelain in the hall, she simply ordered someone to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get a new set and send it to her.

"She's pregnant, so I'll get her a set this time. But if she breaks it again, don't blame me for reporting it to the Empress.

We now have the Empress Dowager, and her share as a noble lady is only so small. If it exceeds too much, the Emperor will not be able to protect her."

"Your Majesty is right. There's news that Concubine Yi is pregnant. The Empress and the Imperial Concubine have both gone to the Cining Palace. Would you like to go there?"

Speaking of Concubine Hui, she had a headache. She was still waiting for an opportunity to talk to Kangxi about bringing Yinzhi back, but she didn't expect that there was news that Mu Sili was pregnant.

It seems that this matter has to be put aside and brought up again in a few days. Otherwise, if it is brought up at this time, it will be suspected that the author is trying to use the child to win favor.

Kangxi hated people who used children to win favor the most. This was very serious in the harem. Just look at Ma Jia and you will know.

She just took advantage of Rongxian's illness to win favor and lost her title of concubine. She also had Rongxian sent to Nansanso. It can be seen how serious the consequences were.

She had learned from past experiences, so she naturally wouldn't let herself follow in his footsteps.

"Of course we have to go, but we can't go in a group. My son Yinzhi hasn't come back yet, and we must not leave a bad impression on the emperor.

However, Concubine Yi is favored. If I could make friends with her, it would be great. With her help to intercede, the emperor will definitely let Yinzhi come back.

So, go check if there's anything suitable for pregnant women among the things my uncle sent me. If there is, find it and I'll give it to Concubine Yi as a gift."

"yes."

Everyone in the harem had different attitudes towards Mu Sili's pregnancy, and at this time the Queen and Concubine Tong arrived one after another.

"I didn't expect the Imperial Concubine to come as well. What? Are you here to take advantage of Concubine Yi's good fortune?"

"Look at what your majesty said. I am on good terms with Concubine Yi. Even if I don't take advantage of her good fortune, I will be affected by her good luck.

This action of your Majesty has surprised me a little. It looks like a gift for Concubine Yi. I would like to thank you on behalf of Concubine Yi."

The queen's face froze. Who asked her to thank him? She was just here to curry his favor. What if Kangxi thought she was virtuous and sensible and stayed overnight in Kunning Palace?

Since she became the queen, she naturally had to give birth to a child with the blood of the Niuhuru clan. If the queen had no legitimate son, it would be a laughing stock if it were made public.

But this is not so easy to succeed, but the matter of improving favorability cannot be omitted. After all, Kangxi will not go anywhere except to Mousili now.

Even if she had thought about having a surrogate mother or even having a false pregnancy, it would be impossible before she was favored by the emperor.

"You have a good relationship with her, Imperial Concubine. I'm not trying to sow discord between you two, but if you don't have children, you won't be able to hold on to your high position.

Concubine Yi is already very favored, and she has given birth to the Ninth Prince. If this baby is also a prince, he will sooner or later surpass your status. Are you willing to let her surpass you?"

The Queen said this on purpose to disgust Concubine Tong. Concubine Tong knew this, but she would not be fooled.

Didn't the Queen say this because she was worried that they would join forces to make her lose her position as Queen? The more she didn't want them to be well, the more she had to build a good relationship with Mu Sili.

Anyway, it’s none of her business whether the position of queen is stable or not. She values ​​her life, and with the reputation of being a wife-killer, she doesn’t want the position of queen for the time being.

"Your Majesty, please don't worry about that. If you have the time, you might as well think about how long you can stay on the throne of Queen. It would be bad if you angered the Emperor and got deposed.

You also know that there have been people who have been deposed from the position of empress since the founding of our Qing Dynasty. I still hope that you can hold on to this position.

After all, with you in charge, the harem can be much quieter, and I also have time to watch more good shows."

The queen said that she was really angry. She really didn't know that Concubine Tong could be so irritating.

If she had known that she didn't care about Mu Sili's pregnancy, she wouldn't have said those nonsense. Now that she wasn't angry, she was the one who was very angry.

What does it mean to think carefully about whether she can secure the position of empress? Could it be that Kangxi gave her the position of empress just to push her out and test the minds of others?

If this is true, don't blame her for being cruel and ruthless. The position of queen can only be hers. Now that she sits on this position, no one else can covet it.

Anyone who dares to covet her position should die. Even if the other person is the emperor, she will pull him down from the altar and send him to hell.

Concubine Tong herself didn't know that her previous words had such a huge impact on the Queen, and it actually made her want to harm Kangxi.

If she knew, she would still say so. After all, if the queen committed suicide, the position of queen would be vacant, and she would have the opportunity to sit in that position.

Ultimately, it was because the queen herself was not firm enough. Even though she knew that she was deliberately trying to make her angry, she still couldn't help but get angry.

"What's the commotion outside? You're here but you won't come in. Do you think my Cining Palace isn't worthy of you?"

Oops! I forgot this is the Cining Palace.

The imperial concubine had a headache. Empress Xiaozhuang had always disliked her. She was not very happy even when they came to pay their respects in the Cining Palace and seldom smiled at them. Now that they were making a noise outside, wouldn't that make her even angrier?
