It seems that the Queen has no feelings for that woman at all. In that case, there is no need for her to take it too seriously. Just as the Queen said, a woman of unknown origin like her cannot snatch the Emperor's favor.

In the Cining Palace, Empress Xiaozhuang looked at Kejing with a smile on her face. The girl was growing better and better, and looked very much like her. She felt that this was a gift from God, so she wanted to protect her well.

"I don't know who this girl will marry when she grows up. My heart aches when I think about her getting married. I can't let my pampered great-granddaughter marry just anyone."

Su Malagu looked at her in confusion. Most of the princesses in the royal family were going to marry a foreign prince. Did Gege mean to keep the fourth princess and let her marry in the capital in the future?

This is fine. The emperor has several adopted daughters anyway. If he really wants to marry a foreign prince, let them go. The fourth princess can come back to visit more often while she is in the capital. There is nothing wrong with that.

"Gege is right. Our fourth princess is blessed and will definitely get what you wish for."

"I pay my respects to the Grand Empress Dowager. I hope I am not disturbing your rest."

"Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to stay in Yonghe Palace and take good care of your pregnancy? If the emperor knew you came here again, I'm afraid he would make a scene with me."

"How could that be? The Emperor is not that kind of person. Even if you don't believe yourself, you have to believe the Emperor. I'm a little bored staying in Yonghe Palace, so I came to see you and Kejing, and by the way, tell you some good news."

"Good news? What good news is worth making such a trip? I'm telling you, if this news isn't just shocking, I'll be furious."

Mu Sili looked at her with resentment in an instant. What kind of words were these? Was this something a human would say?

"Princess, please stop teasing the Empress. She is a soft-hearted woman. If you make her cry, be careful that the Emperor will come and argue with you."

"I was just saying it casually. I'm not really angry. Look how scared you are. Tell me what the good news is. Let me be happy too."

"Today, I was so bored that I went to the Palace of Heavenly Purity to see the Emperor. The Emperor asked the imperial physician to take my pulse, and he said I was pregnant with multiple babies."

"What? Multiple pregnancies? That's really good news. No, I'm really worried. How about you come to the Cining Palace and let me take care of you for this pregnancy? It's a good opportunity to keep Kejing company. She misses you so much."

Xiaozhuang was so happy. Mu Sili alone was worth half of the harem. This time she would have at least three children. Even if she gave birth to three princesses, her position would be stable.

Of course, it would be even better if she gave birth to a prince. She could be made a noble concubine just for her contribution to childbearing.

However, she was promoted too quickly, from a concubine to a concubine in just one year. Even if one wanted to promote her to a noble concubine, one would have to wait a few years, otherwise it would easily arouse resentment.

"I am doing well in Yonghe Palace. If I go to Cining Palace to take care of my pregnancy, I am afraid it will affect you. Besides, with the protection of the emperor and you, I will definitely be fine, so don't worry.

Although I don't know whether I am pregnant with a little prince or a little princess, they are both my children, and I will protect them well."

"I'm glad you think so. I said that flowers bloom before fruits. Xuanye only favors you now. You will give birth to a little prince sooner or later. Don't worry."

"I understand."

Kangxi did not release the news that Mu Sili was pregnant with multiple babies. In addition to being worried that she would be harmed by others, he also wanted to give everyone a surprise. If she could give birth to twins, it would be great, and her title of imperial concubine would be justified.

A month later, the woman was trained and sent back to Chengqian Palace. Looking at the woman who originally looked only 30% like Mu Sili but now looked 70% like her, the Imperial Noble Concubine smiled triumphantly.

She had no way to compete with her for favor, but she was pregnant now and could not serve Kangxi. As long as Kangxi tasted this woman after getting drunk, she would definitely return to the harem and enjoy her equally.

By then, Mu Sili will have lost her exclusive favor, and if there is a crisis during the birth of this baby, then the harem will truly be in her control.

Since she couldn't get Kangxi's favor, no one else could either. After this woman successfully made Mu Sili fall out of favor, she would replace him with another woman to secure his favor.

The incident with Concubine Yan was a lesson for her, and she would never allow such a thing to happen again.

"My Lady, what do you think?"

"Of course it's great. Let her stay in Chengqian Palace and serve. The fifteenth day will be in a few days. The Central Palace will be without a master. According to the rules, the emperor should come to accompany me for dinner. Let her serve me then."

"I understand."

The woman didn't say a word from beginning to end and looked extremely docile, which made the imperial concubine very satisfied. As long as she was obedient, she didn't mind letting her taste more of wealth and glory.

In the Palace of Heavenly Purity, Kangxi ignored Liang Jiugong. No matter how much the woman looked like Mu Sili, a fake was a fake and could never compare to her. He could not be deceived by her.

The Imperial Concubine made a wrong move. He wanted to not argue with her too much because she was his cousin, but she wanted too much and he couldn't give it to her. Since he couldn't give it to her, he naturally had to stop her.

"The fifteenth will be here in a few days. I'll give her a chance. If she doesn't push someone out to consolidate her favor that day, she will still be the Imperial Noble Consort."

Liang Jiugong nodded in understanding, but he felt that the imperial concubine would not give up easily. She had been brought into the palace and trained for such a long time, it was impossible for her to give up the opportunity to compete for favor.

I just hope that she can withstand the emperor's wrath by then. It's a pity for the Fourth Prince, he will probably be sent to someone else to raise.

In Yonghe Palace, Mu Sili was already showing signs of being pregnant because she was carrying multiple babies, and her baby was already three months old, but Kangxi was still very nervous.

"Your Majesty, if you continue like this, I will suspect that you are the one who is pregnant. Look for yourself in this palace and see if there is anyone as nervous as you. If I am not nervous, you will scare me sick."

Kangxi felt aggrieved for no reason. Who was the reason for him to be like this? He was so heartless. He had been thinking about her wholeheartedly, but this was how she repaid him!

"I knew you were heartless. Alas, I was planning to give you the red coral ornament that the foreigners brought into the palace a while ago. Now it seems that I won't need it. I'll keep it for myself."

"A red coral ornament? Your Majesty, since you're giving it to me, it's mine. How can you take it back? If you tell others about it, I'll be laughed at, right? I thank you so much, Your Majesty. I know you favor me the most."

Liang Jiugong and Nong Qing looked at each other, and both saw speechless eyes. The speed at which the Empress changed her expression was almost as fast as turning the pages of a book. How could the Emperor bear it?

"It's not impossible to give it to you, but you have to stay in Yonghe Palace and take care of the baby. Pregnancy is already difficult. If anything goes wrong with you, what will Kejing and I do?"
