"Secondary Consort"
Nan waved his hand, knowing the situation was urgent, "Let's go back to the manor first."
Once she was seated, the carriage sped off, and Yiren helped Nan Yi to prevent her from hitting the carriage door.
"Why so suddenly? Didn't they say things were improving a few days ago?" Nan asked Yiren.
Yi Ren looked alarmed. After thinking for a moment, she voiced her guess, "It's probably a final burst of energy before death."
"ah?"
Nan Yi felt a pang of regret. Although he had long understood this, he was still filled with pity for the eight-year-old child, who was Yongzheng's only legitimate son.
Empress Nara only gave birth to this one child, and she had no children after that.
She rarely paid attention to the children in Yinzhen's harem. Although she was not good at history and had a low educational background, she had some knowledge of history and the general course of history thanks to the information bombardment from TV dramas and novels.
Honghui, she would always just glance at her from afar in the crowd and then avoid her.
She knew she couldn't change history, nor did she have the ability to do so; it was ultimately beyond her control, and she dared not pay any attention to it.
When Honghui fell seriously ill, Emperor Kangxi was also worried after hearing the imperial physician's report. As soon as Nan Yi left the palace, he took the chief eunuch Li Dequan with him to visit him.
In the main hall, Emperor Kangxi sat at the head of the table, while Yinzhen stood to one side, supporting his wife whose eyes were red from crying. Lady Li, Lady Nian, and others stood silently on one side of the room, and everyone held their breath.
The imperial physician administered treatment in the inner room.
Kangxi glanced at the women in the room and asked, "Where is Lady Tong? Why can't I see her?" He was wondering why this girl didn't come out to greet him.
Yinzhen's expression stiffened slightly, but he had no choice but to step forward and reply, "Reporting to Father Emperor, Lady Tong has gone to Ninth Brother's residence."
"Hmm, she still has the leisure to leave the mansion." Kangxi said in a deep voice, "Issue my imperial decree that when Lady Tong returns, she should kneel in the courtyard."
"Your servant obeys the decree."
Upon hearing this, Yinzhen sighed inwardly, realizing it was his fault for letting her leave the manor.
Li and Nian exchanged a glance, then simultaneously turned their heads away. Both wore expressions of sorrow, but their lowered eyes held a secret delight, each harboring a desire to watch the spectacle unfold.
If the eldest prince were to die, the benefits would be immense. The princess would lose her support, and Lady Li, who has two sons, would feel even more triumphant.
Meanwhile, Lady Nian thought that her greatest nemesis, Lady Tong, was about to suffer.
She never took the primary consort, Lady Nara, seriously.
