Mrs. Tong also realized that she had said the wrong thing. She was so scared that she quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Your Majesty has misunderstood me. What I meant was that I would like you to spend more time with the Imperial Concubine in Chengqian Palace. After all, she is your cousin, so I have to give her some face.

I dare not arrange for anyone to serve you. I am stupid and foolish. Please don't argue with me, Your Majesty. It's getting late. I will leave the palace now. I'll take my leave."

Mrs. Tong glanced at Kangxi cautiously, and seeing that he still had a cold face and didn't speak, she collapsed to the ground in panic.

"Mother! Your Majesty, calm down. Mother only wanted to share my sister's worries and did not mean to offend you. I will take you out of the palace right away."

Miss Tong was very helpless. She couldn't wait to leave the palace. After returning home, she would tell her father what happened today, otherwise she would be suffocated to death.

Kangxi did not say anything. After all, this was the Imperial Noble Consort's fault. If he had to find someone, he would find her. There was no point in taking his anger out on others.

Seeing that Kangxi had no objection, Miss Tong hurriedly helped Madam Tong leave. She had decided that the palace was a place of trouble and she didn't want to come again unless necessary.

"Your Majesty, I, your concubine..."

"I didn't bother with my aunt because of the Tong family's reputation. If it happens again, I don't care who she is, I will make her pay the price.

This is my palace, not her Tong Mansion's backyard. If you want to arrange someone to serve me, it depends on whether she is qualified. And you, stop thinking about it.

I know what you are planning. You want to find someone to help you consolidate your favor and have a child for you to raise, right? I advise you to give up this idea. I will not agree.

Instead of thinking about these unrealistic ideas, you might as well think about how to manage the harem. After all, you are the Imperial Concubine."

The Imperial Noble Consort looked at Kangxi with a pale face. She was also a woman, so why couldn't she have such thoughts?

"Your Majesty, the Empress has sent someone to urge us."

"It's my fault for keeping her waiting. Remember, you are the Imperial Concubine. If you can't fulfill your duties as the Imperial Concubine, I can replace you with someone else."

After saying this, Kangxi left, leaving the imperial concubine alone sulking there.

"What does the Emperor mean by this? He wants to replace me as the Imperial Noble Consort? I just want to leave myself a way out. Why would he treat me like this?

You want to change someone to be the Imperial Noble Consort? Who? I know. It must be that Depin said something to the Emperor, otherwise the Emperor wouldn't have suddenly treated me like this."

The Imperial Noble Consort immediately concluded that it was Mu Sili who whispered in Kangxi's ear, otherwise he would not have said these words to her.

"It's already a great favor for me to make her my consort. Why does she still want me to pay my respects to her? Now that I've taken the throne of Imperial Consort, I won't allow anyone else to covet my position!"

"My lady, walls have ears!"

"What am I afraid of at this time? Go, send someone to tell Father to immediately arrange for someone to enter the palace. I don't believe that Concubine De can remain in favor forever!"

"yes."

Inside the Yonghe Palace, Mu Sili circled around Kangxi again and again, making Kangxi completely confused.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong with my outfit today?"

"Not really, I just find it strange. You've already entered Chengqian Palace, why would the Imperial Concubine let you out? I heard that Madam Tong is here."

"Why, if she comes, I have to stay with her in Chengqian Palace? She is my aunt, it's true, but I am the emperor. Why does she think I will stay there to keep her company?"

"Um... I heard that Miss Tong is so beautiful, Your Majesty, didn't you think of taking a second look? If it weren't inappropriate, I would have gone over to see if it was true."

Kangxi suddenly narrowed his eyes. He felt that there was something wrong with Mu Sili. It was not normal for a grown man like him to be standing here without her thinking about him but thinking about a woman.

"It seems I wasn't diligent enough yesterday, causing you to neglect me and think about other women. In that case, you don't need to eat dinner and go to bed."

Mu Sili was confused. She was just joking, so how did she end up driving herself into the dormitory?

"Your Majesty, I am hungry. I only ate two snacks while waiting for you. Please wait for me to have some food."

"I will feed you."

Before she fainted, Mu Sili had only one thing to say: she was hungry, really hungry, and she didn't want to talk anymore.

Kangxi's face was filled with satisfaction, for he knew that he could find complete comfort from her.

Thinking of the Tong family, he sighed. He didn't want to touch them. After all, they were his mother's family. But if they had other ideas, she couldn't be blamed.

The Tong family has already produced a queen, and the imperial concubine is now the number one person in the harem. I hope they will not make the wrong mistake.

At this time, the Tong family was going through a storm.

"You said the Queen summoned you, and I thought you knew the rules. I didn't expect that this time you not only angered the Queen, but also offended the Emperor.

Do you really think our Tong family is some kind of high-ranking family? If it weren't for the Emperor's grace, the Tong family would still be affiliated with the Han Army Banner. How could we have the wealth and splendor you have now?

Your Majesty is now the Imperial Noble Consort. Instead of trying to avoid the limelight, you are trying to push that concubine's daughter to consolidate your favor. It is only natural that Your Majesty is at odds with you.

That's fine, but who gave you the guts to arrange his private affairs in front of the emperor? You don't want your life, but I do!"

Tong Guowei was so angry that he almost died. He really believed her lies. If she had not sworn to him that she would not cause any trouble, how could he let her enter the palace?

I originally thought she came to the palace to help the Imperial Concubine solve her problems, but unexpectedly she went to cause trouble for the Tong family.

Sending someone to Kangxi? She didn't even consider her status. Even his uncle didn't dare to do this, but she directly asked to send someone to serve him!

If he hadn't considered his uncle's reputation, the mother and daughter would have died in Chengqian Palace.

"How can you say that to me, sir? I'm doing this for the good of the Tong family. Can't you see what the queen is thinking? She wants someone to come into the palace to solidify her favor.

I was thinking that the ones from the side branches were not as fragrant as my own, so I wanted the Second Lady to go in and help her, but she was so ignorant.

If she doesn't want her family to serve the emperor, then she shouldn't have said it. Now that she has said it, she should have endured it. Why is she so angry?

Besides, the emperor arrived at Chengqian Palace but did not greet him in person. Could it be that he would just let him use Hegong?

"It's true that Depin is also a tactless person. She was originally a maid in Chengqian Palace. If it weren't for the grace of the Empress, how could she be the master with her status as a bannerman?"

Seeing that her words were getting more and more outrageous, Tong Guowei couldn't bear it anymore and slapped her.
