Of course, the most important reason is that she is currently pregnant!
Okay, even though she doesn't look like a pregnant woman at all right now, she really is carrying a baby.
As for Rong Xi, who is expecting a mother, she is quite oblivious and often forgets that she is actually an expectant mother.
"Guards, seize the Fourth Prince!"
Inside the Forbidden City, the Crown Prince received a distress signal from the Imperial Guards. He seized the opportunity and ordered the Imperial Guards to take action and capture the Fourth Prince on the spot!
"Let's see who dares!"
The Fourth Prince was no pushover either. Seeing the imperial guards closing in, he immediately roared.
The crown prince, though the heir apparent, is ultimately not the emperor.
The imperial guards stood frozen in place, unsure whether to attack the Fourth Prince or not. They could only turn their gaze to Nalan Mingzhu, the Grand Minister of the Imperial Guard.
Nalan Mingzhu was not a member of the Crown Prince's faction. Born into the Yehe Nara clan, Nalan Mingzhu was undoubtedly loyal to Emperor Kangxi. However, due to his old grudge against Suo'etu, he naturally stood on the opposite side of the Crown Prince.
"Your Highness, what transgression has the Fourth Prince committed?"
Nalan Mingzhu looked at the Crown Prince and slowly spoke.
"Nalan Mingzhu, how dare you!"
After Nalan Mingzhu spoke, Suo'etu stood up and said, "The Crown Prince is the heir apparent. After the late emperor passed away, the Crown Prince took control of the power of our Great Qing. Who gave you the audacity to question the Crown Prince?"
"Song'etu, I was merely acting in accordance with the law!"
Nalan Mingzhu completely disregarded Suo'etu's roar, saying, "Even when the late Emperor was alive, I acted the same way. The Fourth Prince is also the late Emperor's son; without solid evidence, I will not arrest him!"
"Nalan Mingzhu!"
As the Crown Prince listened to the argument between Suo'etu and Nalan Mingzhu, his anger flared. "The Fourth Prince's wife, Ulanara, massacred the Imperial Observatory. The evidence is irrefutable. What other evidence do you want?"
"What?"
"How is this possible?"
"The Imperial Observatory!"
Upon hearing the Crown Prince's words, the scene erupted in chaos.
No one could have imagined that things would turn out this way!
But why would the Fourth Prince's wife go and massacre the Imperial Observatory for no reason?
"Ha ha……"
The Fourth Prince suddenly burst out laughing, looked coldly at the Crown Prince, and said in a cold voice, "Crown Prince, even if you want to frame someone, at least say something plausible!"
“Ulanara’s cultivation is only at the Nascent Soul stage. Not to mention the secret guards protecting the Imperial Observatory, the Director of the Imperial Observatory, Daoist Qianmu, is a powerful cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage.”
"I would like to ask, how could a mere cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage slaughter a powerful being at the Divine Transformation stage?"
"How about Your Highness demonstrates it to us?"
The Fourth Prince looked at the Crown Prince with a mocking expression.
As soon as the Fourth Prince uttered these words, everyone present looked as if they had suddenly realized something.
Yes, it's only recently that the Fourth Princess Consort has been able to cultivate. Although her cultivation progress is somewhat rapid, she's still only at the embryonic breathing stage!
With such cultivation, how could he slaughter the Imperial Observatory?
This is absolutely ridiculous, utterly absurd!
"this……"
The young master was completely dumbfounded!
Something's not right. He remembered that Ulanara was supposed to be very powerful. But Ulanara was indeed at the embryonic breathing stage. Where did things go wrong?
The crown prince was somewhat confused.
The Crown Prince wasn't the only one confused; many people present were bewildered. While the Fourth Prince's wife, Ulanara, did indeed have a low cultivation level, she seemed quite formidable.
But something's not right!
Kangxi's plan was brilliant!
However, even the most meticulous plans can have flaws.
He devised a plan to erase his humiliation by altering his memories, allowing him to disappear and live in seclusion. He also intended to use this method to isolate Rong Xi.
However, while isolating Rong Xi, he also concealed Rong Xi's strength.
The plan to massacre the Imperial Observatory and frame Rong Xi naturally lost its supporting basis.
Regardless of who exactly slaughtered the Imperial Observatory, their attempt to frame Rong Xi for this is futile.
"I also received a distress signal from the Imperial Guards!"
The crown prince was stunned for a while before finally coming to his senses. "What exactly happened? Why don't we go and take a look together?"
"Then let's go take a look!"
The Fourth Prince responded with a cold laugh.
...
The group of people who were originally paying respects to Emperor Kangxi suddenly set off and headed straight for the Imperial Observatory.
Meanwhile, at the Imperial Observatory, Rong Xi sat quietly on the back of the Taotie, while a group of imperial guards were kept at a distance by an invisible spatial barrier. Only one imperial guard was suspended in mid-air, standing in a starfish shape.
"What happened?"
The crown prince stepped forward and looked at the imperial guards.
"Your Highness, we servants have no idea!"
A group of imperial guards knelt down in unison.
“We were ordered to pursue the Fourth Princess Consort, but when we arrived at the Imperial Observatory, we found that the Imperial Observatory had been brutally massacred.”
"So, was it the Ulanara clan that massacred the Imperial Observatory?"
"No, it shouldn't be!"
The kneeling imperial guard responded softly, "The Fourth Princess Consort doesn't exude any murderous aura. We've observed that most of the officials in the Imperial Observatory appear to have committed suicide!"
""suicide"?!"
The crown prince was completely dumbfounded.
Is this guy kidding me?
"Go back, all of you!"
Before the Crown Prince could ask anything further, the Empress Dowager arrived, saying, "The Imperial Astronomical Bureau, acting on my orders, attempted to prolong the life of the late Emperor, but the effort failed, and they committed suicide to atone for their sins."
"Furthermore, with the emperor murdered, the country cannot be without a ruler for even a day."
