The palace maid rolled her eyes secretly. What Yipin said was true. Wasn't it because she was worried that they would take action against Mu Sili that she made this decision?
If they had no ill will towards Mu Sili, Kangxi would not have been able to issue the decree. How could the imperial concubine pray for the concubines?
To be honest, this was something she did herself. If she hadn't sought cooperation from Concubine Tong and hadn't gone to the Xinzheku, none of this would have happened.
Now that the imperial edict has been issued, she, like Concubine Tong, has to leave the palace to pray for blessings. Otherwise, she will be considered unfaithful and unfilial, and it will be hard to say whether she can keep her position.
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. It's the Imperial Concubine who should be angry, not you. The Imperial Concubine is the highest-ranking person in the harem. She has already gone to pray for Concubine De. If you have any objections, it would be bad if it gets out.
I'd better pack my bags first to avoid rumors spreading that you are dissatisfied with the emperor's order. Although I know you are unhappy, I still have to save face.
Besides, you should just think of it as praying for the Qing Dynasty. This is a merit and also the emperor's trust in you. When you get there, just focus on praying. The imperial concubine will take care of the rest.
As long as you can keep your composure, even if the Imperial Concubine wants to use you to deal with Concubine De, it depends on whether you are willing.
The emperor already doted on Concubine De, and she became pregnant at the same time as she was pregnant with the Fourth Prince. The emperor would not allow anything to happen to her during this pregnancy.
I heard that she was pregnant with multiple babies. Otherwise, the emperor would not have allowed her to go to the Cining Palace to recuperate.
Not only that, think about it, since she came into favor, has the emperor's favor for the concubines in the harem faded?
They must be holding a grudge against her. It's good that you're not in the palace now. At least you won't be implicated when they take action.
They say that when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. Your Majesty, why don't you let yourself be the fisherman?"
Concubine Yi was immediately convinced by the saying that while the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. As she said, there was no need for her to get involved.
As long as she is not in the palace when Depin gets into trouble, she can regain the emperor's favor with this incident.
However, Wei was too beautiful, and she was worried that after she came back from praying, Kangxi's eyes would still not stay on her.
"I know what you said makes sense, and now I regret going to the Xinzheku.
To be honest, if I hadn't gone to the Xinzheku, the emperor would never have ordered me out of the palace. I regret it now.
In this way, although the palace maid went to the Cining Palace, her appearance was there, and if the emperor saw her, he would definitely be moved.
Guo Luoluo has plenty of people in the palace. Go and arrange for someone to get rid of her. I will not allow her to become the next Depin.
"I understand, Your Majesty, don't worry, I will take care of this matter. I will go and arrange for someone to do it first. Please calm down."
Concubine Yi waved her hand to let her leave. She felt that her temper was a little irritable now. She was not such an irritable person in the past.
After all, it was because Mu Sili was too favored that she felt fearful and full of resentment. Otherwise, she would not do such a thing based on her personality.
Both Concubine Tong and Concubine Yi believed that the other would come forward to deal with Mu Sili, so they packed their bags and left the palace to pray.
Guo Luoluo was confused when she received a message from Concubine Yi asking them to deal with a young palace maid. The palace maid was in the Cining Palace, and no matter how long their arms were, they could not reach the Cining Palace.
So after some discussion, they automatically ignored the matter. Anyway, she would not leave the Cining Palace, so they had no chance to take action.
After she walked out of the Cining Palace, they had plenty of opportunities to deal with her, so the palace remained peaceful.
Seven months later.
"This belly is too big. I'm really worried no matter how I look at it. You have to be careful. Xiao Si is already big. Don't hold him all the time. I'm afraid he will crush you."
As soon as she saw Mu Sili holding Yinzhen in her arms to comfort him, Xiaozhuang became extremely worried. The boy was like a fat boy, and she was really afraid that he would crush Mu Sili.
The key point is that she is already eight months pregnant and is carrying multiple babies. She may give birth at any time, and she doesn't want anything to go wrong with this pregnancy.
"Don't worry, Grand Empress Dowager, I'm in good health. Besides, I've given birth to a child before, so I can tell they won't come out so soon.
I have been having a very comfortable time in the Cining Palace recently, and the Emperor comes to accompany me at any time. This good mood will be good for the child, right?
It's the sisters Huipin and Rongpin who have been troubled by coming to the Cining Palace every now and then to bring me supplements. I feel really bad for that."
Speaking of Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong, Empress Xiaozhuang couldn't help but shook her head. Concubine Hui was fine, as she was Yinzhi's biological mother, and there was no problem for her to cooperate with the six palaces.
But Rongpin is different. She has a weak personality. If Mu Sili had not been pregnant, she would have no chance to come into contact with the palace power.
However, they were both grateful people. After knowing that it was Mu Sili who spoke for them and allowed them to assist in managing the six palaces, they became very concerned about her affairs.
The reason why Mu Sili was able to keep the pregnancy safe and sound until the eighth month was also because of their secret protection. Sometimes she couldn't help but sigh that fools have good luck.
As long as you can give birth safely this time, I believe they will be very happy. After all, this baby of yours is the result of the joint protection of the three of you.
"You're right, but Concubine Tong and Concubine Yi have been bullying us for over half a year. Why haven't they come back yet?"
"Who cares what they do? I wish they wouldn't come back. Come, let me hold Xiao Si. You take a rest for a while and don't get tired."
"I am sorry for the trouble. I think you are in good shape recently. Do you want to go to the Imperial Garden for a walk? Xiao Si likes to play around, so it would be nice to let him go to the Imperial Garden for a walk."
"That's good. Going out more often is good for childbirth, Suma."
"I will arrange for someone to clear the area right away."
Mu Sili's pregnancy was of utmost importance and nothing could go wrong. Therefore, when Su Malagu heard Mu Sili say that she wanted to go to the Imperial Garden, she made the decision.
It would be fine on ordinary days, but today Xiaozhuang and Mu Sili are going to the Imperial Garden, and they are bringing Yinzhen with them, so there must be no mistakes.
The old man and the child took Yinzhen away. When Kangxi learned that they went to the Imperial Garden, he followed them. This was a moment of relaxation for him in his busy schedule.
The concubines who were secretly observing Kangxi's movements also followed him to the Imperial Garden, but they were unable to go in and could only watch from outside.
"Empress Depin is becoming more and more overbearing. She even refused to let us enter the Imperial Garden, even though the Emperor is inside. She wants to dominate the Emperor even with such a big belly.
I'm afraid the emperor has forgotten about us sisters in the past year or so. If we don't sleep with him again, I'm afraid there will be no place for us in the harem.
"Sister Nara is very much favored by the Emperor, so why hasn't the Emperor come to visit you in the palace? Or has Sister Nara completely fallen out of favor?"
