After all, she and Mu Sili are allies, how could she do something to betray her teammates!
"It's my fault for upsetting the Grand Empress Dowager. I was worried it would be too noisy and disturb her rest. Please don't blame me."
"Your Highness is right. I also feel that it is a bit rash to come here at this time. Look, Madam, this is the gift I prepared for Concubine Yi. Please give it to her.
I have just moved into Kunning Palace today, and there are still many things I have not yet resolved. I will not bother you in Cining Palace any longer. I will take my leave."
Although the Queen wanted to stay, Empress Xiaozhuang was obviously unhappy at the moment. If she stayed here, she would definitely be the target of anger.
She has just ascended the throne of queen. There is no need to put herself in danger for something that is not necessary.
The imperial concubine glanced at the queen with disdain in her eyes. How dare someone with such little courage compete with her for the position of queen?
"It seems that the Empress has just taken over Kunning Palace and is not very familiar with the business. Since you are going back, I will go back with you.
Grand Empress Dowager, this is a gift I prepared for Concubine Yi. Please give it to her later and ask her to take good care of herself and give birth to a healthy prince for the Emperor.
Today is a double celebration for her. I will visit her at Yikun Palace another day. I will take my leave now."
The Queen really didn't expect that Concubine Tong would mock her before leaving. Did she think that even if she became the Queen, no one would dare to touch her?
"Alright, there's nothing to do here. If you're busy, go back. I'll pass this thing on to Concubine Yi."
"Yes, I'll take my leave."
Looking at the queen's back, Xiaozhuang sighed. She lost her temper just after taking the throne?
She should have known that it was impossible to have children if she sat on the throne of Queen. If she couldn't have children, wouldn't it be better for her to just sit on the throne of Queen? Why was she so impatient?
It seems that she will not be able to sit on the throne of queen for long. In her opinion, it won't be long before the queen makes a mistake, and if she makes a mistake, she may lose her throne.
It seems that we need to find a new candidate for the queen. Not everyone is qualified to sit on the throne of queen, and not everyone can sit firmly on the throne of queen.
Three months later, Concubine Rong launched a rebellion in the Yanx Palace. Kangxi did not go there, but the Queen took Concubine Tong to watch over it.
Originally, Mu Sili was going to go, but Concubine Tong sent someone to give her a message, saying that it was a chaotic time and asked her not to leave the Yikun Palace and just wait for news in the Yikun Palace.
After all, Concubine Rong is just a noble lady, so she and the Queen can just stay in charge. As for her, the baby in her belly is just settled, so it’s better for her not to run around just in case.
Although both Kangxi and Xiaozhuang sent people to protect her, there was no guarantee that someone with bad intentions would deliberately come and bump into her. If nothing happened, it would be fine, but if something did happen, she would be held accountable.
It would be better if she could avoid going to the Yanx Palace. She didn't have to be there to know what happened. Besides, the Yanx Palace was quite far away and she didn't want to go there.
Inside the Yanx Palace, Huipin looked towards the side hall with a grim expression. It was not yet time for Rong Guiren to give birth, and it was entirely her own fault that she was going into labor now.
Ever since the news of Mu Sili's pregnancy came out, she has been unhappy every now and then. Even though she warned her that she would report it to the Queen, she still did her own thing.
In just three months, the Imperial Household Department probably compiled a thick book of expenses for the Yanx Palace, and all of these would be charged to her.
She was going to keep the money and give it to Yinzhi when he came back, so how could she waste it on something like this?
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. In my opinion, it is a good thing for Concubine Rong to be born earlier. You don't even know that as soon as I walked out, I heard them talking about Concubine Rong.
It would be fine if they were just talking about her, but they happened to be talking about the entire Yanx Palace, which is like a sudden disaster for you.
Now that she has caused herself to give birth prematurely, you can use this opportunity to move her out and let her stay in the Yanxi Palace. Even if something happens, you won't be able to escape."
Huipin certainly knew this was the case, and she also wanted to move her out, but she couldn't do that now.
"I know. Go and see if the Queen and the Imperial Concubine have arrived. Even though it's just a noblewoman giving birth, the Queen must be here to take charge. I can't stop her."
"yes."
After the Queen and the Imperial Concubine arrived, Concubine Rong began to give birth.
"Your Majesty, I'm in so much pain, my stomach hurts so much, someone wants to harm me and can't bear to see me well, where are you, come and save me!"
Suddenly, Rong Guiren's desperate cry for help was heard in the delivery room, which scared Huipin. She hurriedly looked towards the Queen.
"Your Majesty, I have not harmed Noble Lady Rong. How about I go in and take a look? She is pregnant with the Emperor's child. If anything goes wrong, I cannot bear the consequences."
Seeing that Huipin looked unhappy, the Queen asked the Imperial Concubine to go in with her to take a look. After all, this was the Yanx Palace, and it was possible that all the people inside were Huipin's people.
If someone really framed Concubine Rong, the first person she would suspect would be Concubine Hui, and it was right for Concubine Hui to be worried.
In the delivery room, Concubine Rong was still screaming, making it difficult for the person delivering her to know where to start.
"My dear, please stop yelling. You're already having a difficult labor, how can you keep yelling? This won't be conducive to childbirth. Think about the little prince. If something happens to him, how will you explain it to the emperor?"
The midwife was almost going crazy with anxiety. She had never seen such an irrational mother. If the emperor didn't come, could she still insist on not giving birth?
What if something goes wrong with the baby in the womb and they are held accountable?
"How dare you! You were all sent by Concubine Hui to harm me. Your Majesty, please come and save me. If you don't come, I'm afraid I won't be able to see me again."
"What are you making a fuss about? Lady Rong, if you don't give birth properly and keep making such a fuss, when will you be able to give birth?
Also, the emperor hasn't come yet, so don't wait until he sees your miserable condition before giving birth.
I am telling you, you are not the only pregnant woman in this palace. If you insist on using your offspring to compete for favor, I will immediately report this to the Emperor.
If the Emperor decides that you are unworthy of being his mother and gives him to someone else to raise, I will see what you will do!"
Perhaps the imperial concubine's words irritated Rong Guiren, and she felt a pain in her stomach.
"Your Highness, please don't scare me. I'm timid and can't stand it. If I've offended you in any way, please don't hold it against me."
Seeing that she really had the attitude of admitting her mistake, Concubine Tong did not continue to argue with her, but asked the midwife to deliver the baby quickly. If it took too long, she was afraid that she would have a difficult delivery.
She now only hopes that there will be no problems with the child. Otherwise, when Kangxi finds out that she caused problems with the child because she wanted to win favor, it is hard to say whether she can even save her life, let alone the position of noble lady.
