After Consort Niohuru became pregnant, Wanwan exempted her from the monthly sexual services twice a month until the child was born. However, a few days later, a piece of news shocked Wanwan so much that she could hardly believe it: Consort Wuya had become pregnant.
As for why she couldn't believe it, it was mainly because during the last purge of bondservants, Kangxi had already stopped taking in many bondservant maids.
Especially since the Wuya clan had already been exiled or killed, it was thought that they could no longer cause any trouble. But unexpectedly, they were able to rise again. Was it really fate?
Besides, even if a palace maid in bondservant status could only rise to the rank of concubine at most, she would not be allowed to raise children herself.
Wanwan asked, "Are you sure you found this out?" Wanwan still couldn't understand. Kangxi hadn't paid any attention to Consort Wuya for several years.
Tingyu had already understood what had happened and naturally knew the reason. "Your Majesty, that's indeed the case. It was Consort Jin (who was Consort Tong, who was given a title when the six palaces were being honored) who pushed her out."
Suddenly, Wanwan seemed to understand "when this happened".
"Your Majesty, it has been a full year. At first, Consort Jin was unwilling, after all, Wuya had agreed... But later, for some reason, she agreed. Half a year ago, Consort Jin was preparing to push Wuya out, but the Emperor didn't like her, so it didn't work. But two months ago, she was suddenly favored by the Emperor, and news of her pregnancy spread."
Wanwan muttered to herself, "So that's how it is, I understand now."
Actually, once you think about this problem, it becomes easy to understand, let's not talk about the other princes.
The only one with a low rank was the Eighth Prince, but his mother was Consort Hui, so the Eighth Prince naturally ended up under Consort Hui's name. She could no longer take over the previous princes to raise.
So they can only find another life partner, but it's not that easy. In the past few years, not to mention that Wanwan has suppressed them to the point of being unable to lift their heads.
It's only once or twice, and who knows when she'll get pregnant? If she's unlucky, she might have to wait forever. So when Wuya agreed to recommend herself, Consort Jin should have agreed, but not immediately. She probably agreed after a period of observation.
Wanwan said, "Alright, I understand. Since you're pregnant, just reward yourself according to the usual allowance. You can handle this matter yourself."
Listening to the rain is "yes".
"I heard that after Wuya agreed to get pregnant, she was taken to Chengqian Palace by Consort Jin. It seems that Consort Jin still wants to adopt a child."
As for her confidante, Wanwan naturally said whatever she wanted. "When she was Consort Tong, she wanted to adopt the Fourth Prince, but the Emperor did not agree because of the issue of bondservants. Until now, there has been no suitable child for her to adopt. I'm afraid she couldn't wait any longer, so she cooperated with Wuya."
After thinking for a moment, Wanwan said, "I suspect that Wuya must have made some kind of deal with Consort Jin. For example, if she gave birth to a boy for Consort Jin, Consort Jin would grant her a title. After all, she is the Emperor's cousin, and the Emperor would not refuse her. Moreover, the Emperor had promised her a child with Consort Tong before."
Wanwan: "But there hasn't been a suitable one for the past few years, so Consort Jin had to settle for second best. As long as she could achieve her goal, as long as she adopted the child, the birth mother wouldn't be so important. But Consort Jin probably didn't expect that she would die so young. After adopting the child, she only made things difficult for the child."
Wanwan said, "As for Lady Wuya, she probably couldn't stand being just a concubine, so she tried every means to climb up. But it doesn't matter, she'll never reach a high position in this lifetime. No matter how gentle and considerate she is, no matter how much she tries to change in the direction that Kangxi likes, in the Emperor's eyes, her motives are impure."
