As soon as Kangxi came in, he heard a heart-wrenching sound coming from the delivery room. He was shocked. How could it hurt so much?
Didn't they say the second pregnancy went better than the first? Even when Concubine De gave birth to her first child, she didn't seem to be in such unbearable pain!
The Imperial Noble Consort rolled her eyes as she watched from the side. She saw the nanny beside Concubine De come out.
She probably came to find out whether the emperor had arrived. As soon as the emperor came in, her heart-wrenching voice rang out.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. Concubine De is a well-rounded person and knows her limits."
After hearing this, Concubine De in the delivery room was dumbfounded. The Imperial Noble Concubine actually dared to ruin her plan!
After she gave birth successfully, she would send someone to Yinzhen, and after a while, she would ask Kangxi to bring him back on the grounds that she missed her son.
She wanted to see if the Imperial Noble Consort would still be able to act so arrogantly when her son was no longer around.
When she thought about being able to suppress the Imperial Noble Consort, Concubine De felt particularly happy. At this moment, the pain of giving birth was not enough to break her will.
"I know, but she is carrying my child, and I am worried about the child."
Kangxi was right. He was nervous because he was afraid that Concubine De would lose her strength from yelling all the time. If this caused the baby in her womb to be affected, he would probably punish Concubine De severely.
Fortunately, the child in Concubine De's belly was strong, and she gave birth a quarter of an hour later.
The midwife looked at the little prince in her arms happily, knowing that she would get a reward today.
But when she was cleaning the little prince's body, she froze in place.
Seeing that she didn't move for a long time, Concubine De became unhappy.
"What are you doing? Why don't you quickly pack up the little prince and bring him over to me?"
"Slave, slave..."
Only then did Concubine De realize that something was wrong with the midwife. There was panic in her tone. Could something have happened to her child?
"What's wrong with little brother? Tell me, what's wrong with little brother?"
Her voice was filled with panic, and Kangxi and others who were guarding outside the door could hear it.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know either, Your Majesty. Let me go in and take a look."
"good."
The Imperial Noble Consort was gloating in her heart. It was obvious that something had happened to Concubine De's child, and she wanted to go in and see what was going on.
In the delivery room, Concubine De was so frightened when she saw the little prince's uneven legs and feet that she fainted.
"What happened to Concubine De? How did you take care of her? Was it a little prince or a little princess? Bring her here for me to see."
"My Lady, please save me! My Lady Virtuous Consort gave birth to a... a disabled prince!"
"What? Tian Can?"
The imperial concubine originally thought that the child was too weak, but she didn't expect that the child was born with a disability.
When she saw the uneven feet, her face turned pale.
If the news of such a prince appearing in the royal family were spread by people with ulterior motives, they would definitely say that the Qing royal family was not favored by God, and that this was the reason for such an ominous sign.
Moreover, the child's future is also over. No matter how great his achievements are in the future, due to his disability, he can only become a prince at most. It will be extremely difficult for him to go further.
Although the Imperial Noble Consort disliked Concubine De, the child was innocent and she would not touch Concubine De's child.
Now that the child has received such retribution, it is probably because Concubine De has committed too many sins, and this is what happened to him.
"Why did Concubine De faint? Did she know that Xiaoliu was born with deficiencies?"
"I know. The queen fainted after seeing the young prince's legs."
"I understand. Everyone, please be alert to this. I will go out and inform the Emperor of this matter."
"yes."
Outside the delivery room, Kangxi always had a bad premonition. He always felt that the child might be in trouble.
With a creak, the door opened. Seeing the pale face of the imperial concubine, Kangxi confirmed his thoughts.
It seems that this child is in great danger, but I don’t know the cause.
If Concubine De committed suicide and caused her child to die young, he would never let her go.
If someone secretly tampered with Concubine De, don't blame him for finding out who was behind it and punishing her severely.
"how?"
"Your Majesty...Your Majesty, please be mentally prepared. Xiaoliu...Xiaoliu is born with deficiencies."
Bang!
Kangxi's head was buzzing. What had the Imperial Concubine said? Xiaoliu? A prince? And a prince born with defects?
Kangxi said that he could not accept the fact that he suddenly had a disabled prince.
"What exactly happened? Why did Concubine De give birth to a prince with congenital defects? What went wrong? Didn't the imperial physician say that this baby is fine?"
Kangxi was well aware of the consequences of having a disabled prince in the royal family. This matter must be attributed to someone secretly harming the royal heir. Otherwise, with so many people in the world with ulterior motives, they would probably make use of this to make a fuss.
"I don't know either, but I think it was done by Concubine De herself.
You don't know that Concubine De was already in labor before you came, but she didn't want to give birth and kept holding it in until you entered Yonghe Palace.
I suspect that it was Concubine De's actions that caused the little prince to suffer in her womb, which is why he became like this after birth."
When Kangxi heard this, his face turned dark. He knew very well what Defei was up to.
She wanted to take the opportunity to gain his sympathy, preferably to bring her benefits. If Xiaoliu was healthy and had no problems, he wouldn't mind giving her a facial because she gave birth to a prince.
But now that Xiaoliu has become like this, he can't show the slightest bit of kindness to Concubine De no matter what.
He actually understood that this baby was born deficient even when it was still in Concubine De's womb, but someone had to take the blame.
Since Concubine De wanted benefits, she would naturally have to bear the consequences. He also believed that this was Concubine De's own doing and no one framed her.
"De Fei Uya did not take the heir to the throne seriously, which resulted in the Sixth Prince being born with deficiencies. I am deeply saddened. However, considering that De Fei had given birth to two princes, I will now demote her to Depin.
The Sixth Prince was born with deficiencies and will be raised by Depin personally in the future. I hope Depin will learn from this and raise the Sixth Prince well."
The Imperial Noble Consort was not very satisfied, but Kangxi was a man who cherished old friendships and it was impossible for him to kill Depin because of this matter.
The matter was settled and Kangxi returned to the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
He doesn't want to go anywhere now. He gave birth to a prince with congenital defects, so he needs to take it easy.
At this time, Liang Jiugong received a piece of news and was shocked.
"Your Majesty, there's news from the Imperial Kitchen that Concubine De has asked Wei Xi to tamper with Concubine Cheng's diet, hoping to cause problems with her pregnancy."
"What?"
There was already a prince with a disability, and Kangxi was really worried that Mu Sili would be infected.
After much thought, Kangxi decided to go to the imperial kitchen to see what was going on.
"Liang Jiugong, get ready. I'm going to the imperial kitchen."
"yes."
