Anyway, everyone in the palace knows that Consort De has angered the Emperor again. She was just about to regain his favor, so why is she in this state now? This drama is really a bit too much! But this is exactly what they want to see. Of course, they can't wait to set off firecrackers outside!
The fewer people there are in the palace, the less competition there is, and the greater their chances of gaining the Emperor's favor, not to mention Consort De's status!
Some people were secretly thinking that she was probably having some bad luck lately! If Consort De could think straight, she might be going to a temple to pray, wondering if she had encountered some evil spirits in the past few years, which was why things were getting worse and worse.
Why has everything I've done these past few years been so unsuccessful? I've either suffered setbacks here or angered the Emperor for some reason.
Imagine how lucky Consort De was when she was favored by the Emperor! It was a time when she was the envy of everyone!
Not to mention that she became pregnant not long after gaining favor, which was like rising to the top in one step! You have to know that so many women in the palace have endured so many years of hardship, and they might not even be able to survive to have a child!
So many people were envious back then, and now just as many want to laugh at her!
Ha, she's had her share of glory over the years, so it's only natural that the Emperor dislikes her now, especially since another batch of people are about to enter the palace.
Jingrou looked at Consort Yi's belly, which was swelling up little by little, like a balloon being blown up.
Meanwhile, the little cousin inside my belly is moving more and more frequently. Even though he hasn't been born yet, he's already moving around often to make his presence known.
Originally, she was just telling stories to Consort Yi in her belly in a routine manner, but as they spent more time together, they did develop some genuine feelings for each other, just like they are now.
How can babies be so interesting? Just staying inside the belly, feeling this bulge and that half-bulge, is enough to excite people!
Whenever Jingrou came to her aunt's palace, her little cousin in her belly would always be very active, rolling around inside, making Consort Yi both love and hate him!
You know, this little rascal was having a great time inside her belly, but it was his own mother who was suffering!
She's so young, she hasn't even crawled out of her belly yet, and she's already so biased towards her older cousin. But she keeps tormenting her like this, it's really a bit unbearable!
"Even if you like your cousin, you can't make your mother suffer like this, can you?" Consort Yi patted her belly helplessly. She was being a little unconventional when it came to the baby in her womb.
Moreover, she was quite comfortable in the latter half of her pregnancy, which Consort Yi attributed to Jingrou. Before she had this delightful niece, she had been vomiting so badly when she was pregnant with the fifth prince that she almost lost her life. She was never as comfortable as she was now!
She was so unconventional, and the things she did made even the nanny around her worry. How could a little child be filmed like that?
Consort Yi gave birth in the evening.
At that time, Jingrou was already holding her friend's hand and preparing to leave the palace. Upon hearing this news, she turned back without hesitation, asked someone to pass on a message to her maternal grandparents, and returned to Yikun Palace, wanting to accompany Consort Yi.
Now is such a crucial time for her aunt to give birth, so of course she can't leave her aunt's side. Besides, she has a deep affection for the baby in her womb and is looking forward to seeing the baby as soon as it is born.
Moreover, he himself has a bit of a special ability, which can be of some use to his aunt no matter what, so Jingrou is really worried about letting her leave at this time!
She was already at the palace gate. Even if she turned back now, it would take some time. Even if she ran, her small stature meant she couldn't take many steps.
Sure enough, when she arrived at Yikun Palace, Emperor Kangxi was already sitting there.
Jingrou froze, but without hesitation she greeted Emperor Kangxi and then obediently stood beside her cousin.
At this moment, her cousin was also looking inside with a worried expression, while Jingrou went over and took her cousin's hand.
Upon seeing Jingrou, Yinqi's eyes lit up considerably. It was true that having someone by his side made him feel much more at ease.
Emperor Kangxi nodded to Jingrou, but he was in no mood to talk to her at this moment. He simply ordered two plates of pastries to be served and then continued to wait outside with her. After Emperor Kangxi finished reviewing the memorials and meeting with the ministers, he heard about the incident involving Consort Yi in Yikun Palace. Consort Yi was, after all, one of his favorites, so of course he had to come over at this time.
However, he didn't expect that Consort Yi's little niece would also return at this time. Although Emperor Kangxi knew that Consort Yi usually doted on him, it was still considerate that she came at a time like this...
Jingrou wasn't thinking about that much. At this moment, her attention was focused on what her aunt's condition was, whether she could give birth safely, and whether anyone was tampering with things—birth was the easiest time to be tampered with, and it was also the time when those evil thoughts would surface.
However, with the Emperor still here, the possibility of him doing something shady is much smaller...
However, the occasional notifications from the system indicating the increase in points interrupted her thoughts.
Because she was so close to Emperor Kangxi, her points kept increasing by "+5...+5".
