Xiaozhuang was very angry. She had thought that the Imperial Noble Consort was really here to take care of her and was ready to change her attitude towards her. However, she didn't expect that her so-called service was just talking.

Since you don't want to serve her, then don't come. If you come with such an attitude, aren't you deliberately making things difficult for her?

"I know you don't like me, but I am the Imperial Noble Consort. If you order me around like this, how can I convince the public when I go out?

I am also a noble lady who grew up in a pampered environment. When I was at home, I never missed the task of serving others. It is already good enough that I can do this. You should be content.

Your Majesty, since the Empress Dowager doesn't want me to serve you, then I'll go back to manage the harem. Huipin and Depin have never managed it before, and I'm afraid they might cause trouble."

It was not until she arrived at the Cining Palace that the Imperial Noble Consort learned that Kangxi had asked Huipin and Mu Sili to assist in managing the six palaces. She was already angry and naturally did not serve him wholeheartedly.

But Empress Xiaozhuang didn't like her, and it was hard for her not to get angry when she saw her attitude. Scolding her was the least of her worries, but she didn't expect that she would argue with her.

"Go out and return to your Chengqian Palace. My Cining Palace cannot support a big Buddha like you. Don't come to the Cining Palace to pay your respects in the future. It makes me upset!"

"The Empress Dowager treats me like this, aren't you afraid that I will be heartbroken? I serve you with all my heart, but you keep finding fault with me. Otherwise, why would I be angry?

I have never been liked by you, and you wish to humiliate me. So, I am very lucky. Since you don't like me, I will go back first."

Having said that, the Imperial Concubine was about to leave, but Mu Sili interrupted her steps.

"When did the Emperor say that he wanted me to assist in the management of the six palaces? I, the person involved, didn't even know about it. Your Majesty, my current health is not suitable for this job.

How about this, Rongpin is also an old lady in the palace, let her and Huipin help manage the six palaces together, I believe she will not let you down."

"Rongpin? Rongpin is now completely focused on Rongxian and Yinzhi. I'm afraid she doesn't have the time to take care of the affairs of the six palaces, right?"

Kangxi was a little hesitant. Although he didn't know why Mu Sili suggested that Rongpin work together with the six palaces, but since she said so, he would do as she wished.

The Imperial Noble Consort turned around and looked at Mu Sili as if she was crazy. What did she mean by this? Did she not want the power in the palace that she had obtained?

Yes, what kind of ambition could a person from a bannerman family have? She overestimated her. If it were her, she would never give up no matter what.

"Since you've said so, I'll have someone inform Rongpin in a moment. I'm sure Rongpin will be filled with gratitude after hearing this news."

"I don't need any words of gratitude. I just hope they can help you share your worries instead of hiding in the harem and causing trouble."

"You, Madam Royal, I brought Concubine De and her son here this time because I have good news to tell you. You will surely be delighted to hear it."

"Oh? Didn't you ask Depin to bring Xiaosi here to entertain me? I thought you were worried that I was bored, so you asked Depin and her son to come here."

"That's what I meant, but there's something else that will make you even happier. Concubine De is pregnant again. Not only that, the imperial physician said she's expecting multiple babies.

She was in the Cining Palace to take care of her pregnancy before, and I am thinking about letting her take care of her pregnancy there this time as well. I am relieved that she is under your care."

Xiaozhuang looked at Kangxi in shock. What did he mean by this? Multiple births? It had to be more than two to be considered multiple births. Could it be that Mu Sili was pregnant with three?

"Wait a minute, I didn't hear what you said just now. Is Depin pregnant with multiple babies? Three?"

"I haven't found out exactly how many there are yet. The imperial physician said the period is still young, so I can only feel three positive pulses. But there's one more faint pulse, so I estimate it's four."

"What? She's pregnant with four? How could she be pregnant with so many heirs? Your Majesty, she's definitely a monster. Otherwise, why would she be different from ordinary people?"

"Your Highness, what I said is ridiculous. How can I be considered a monster just because I was able to conceive multiple babies? Is it normal to be unable to conceive like you?

If this is true, then I would rather not enter the harem. After all, I am ashamed to occupy a position in the harem. It is better to leave the palace and find a suitable person to spend the rest of my life with.

I have been very respectful to you since I entered the palace and have never done anything to harm you. Why are you targeting me like this?

Could it be that you are dissatisfied because the Emperor favors me? But have you forgotten that the only reason I can serve the Emperor is because of you?

If you hadn't sent me to the emperor's bed, I wouldn't have become pregnant with the fourth concubine and been named the emperor's concubine. I am grateful to you and respect you.

I used to think you were a kind-hearted person, but later I no longer think so. All you see is power and status, and you are not sincere to the emperor.

Perhaps it's because the position of Queen has always been vacant, which makes you feel that you have a chance to sit on that position, so you have been looking forward to having a prince by your side as soon as possible.

Only in this way can you sit on that position. Unfortunately, the emperor is not a person who cannot distinguish right from wrong. It is impossible for him to let you sit on the throne just because you have a child.

I am now favored and have a son, and I am pregnant with another baby. My life is complete. Even if I remain a concubine for the rest of my life, I will be content.

Originally, I didn't want to say these inappropriate words, but you went too far. You can dislike me, but you can't slander my child.

People say that a mother is strong. I didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence before, but now I do. Please be kind and don't hurt our relationship."

The Imperial Concubine looked at Mu Sili in shock. This person who already had a son and was pregnant again was just different. How could she dare to talk to her like that!

She was the Imperial Noble Consort personally appointed by Emperor Kangxi. She was the first person in the harem and held the Phoenix Seal. Wasn't she afraid that her thoughts would destroy her and her son?

As expected, this person cannot be spoiled. She should have taken action against her when she found that she was difficult to control, so that she would not be angry about her words.

You are pregnant, but so what? Are you still more noble than me, the Imperial Noble Consort? No matter how many children you have, he will call me the Imperial Mother.

I don’t like you because you look like a vixen and you say unrealistic things in front of the emperor. How can I like you?

I pushed you out to serve the emperor so that you can share his worries, but not to monopolize his time all day long. Tell me, how long has it been since the emperor last entered the harem?

That’s right, if the emperor didn’t stay in Yonghe Palace every day, you wouldn’t be able to get pregnant again, but this pregnancy of yours is indeed abnormal.

Throughout history, the most people who have ever given birth to three children have never given birth to four. If you are not a demon, how do you explain the origin of this pregnancy?"
