When the imperial edict came out, Concubine Tong was stunned. When Concubine Yan gave birth to Yinzhen, she was not promoted but was given a title. How could she be promoted as a concubine and moved to the palace for giving birth to a princess?
"Your Majesty, although Consort Zhao has made great contributions in giving birth, she gave birth to a princess after all. Isn't it a bit too much of a favor to make her a concubine?"
"Passed? Why don't I think so? If she hadn't discovered that I was murdered last month, I would have been buried by now. In my opinion, let alone being a concubine, even being a consort would be fine."
Concubine Tong turned pale when Empress Xiaozhuang strongly supported Mu Sili. Why did she feel that there was something else behind Empress Xiaozhuang's words? Could it be that she knew that it was Mu Sili who was going to do something to her body in the first place?
That shouldn't be the case. If she really found out about her, how could she just let it go? Just look at how she treated Concubine Yan and you'll know she won't let it go. It seems she was just trying to scare her and she didn't find out about her at all.
"It's my fault. I raised my objection because I was worried that the sisters in the harem would be dissatisfied with this. Since the Emperor and the Grand Empress Dowager have no objection, then I have no objection either."
Kangxi just looked at her coldly and then gently picked up his newborn daughter.
"Look, Royal Mama, this girl looks a bit like you. It seems she will be quite someone in the future. Please give her a name."
Xiaozhuang hurriedly leaned over to take a look, and sure enough, the child looked a bit like her. She knew that she and Mu Sili were destined to be together. Look, the child she gave birth to looked a bit like her. She would protect them well in the future.
"It does look like Aijia. I need to think carefully about the name. I can't just use a random one. Let's call her Kejing."
"Kejing? That's a good name, let's call her Kejing. Nongqing, take the little princess in soon. Tell Concubine Zhao that Yonghe Palace is ready and she can move in anytime. Take good care of her. I'm still waiting for her to give birth to a little prince for me."
Nongqing carefully took Kejing and happily returned to the delivery room. She wanted to tell Mu Sili the good news. Her master was the only one who could be promoted to a new palace after giving birth to a princess. She was so happy.
Concubine Tong looked unhappy. Yinzhen was only given a name after his baby was one month old. Why was Mu Sili promoted right after giving birth, and not only was her child given a name?
Could this be Kangxi's preference? She was so lucky, so lucky that it made people jealous. If Kangxi had always favored her, would she still have a chance?
By the way, there is also the prince. If the prince knew that Mu Sili would threaten his position after giving birth to a little prince in the future, he would seek help from Soetu, right?
As long as they fight, she will have the opportunity to train Yinzhen well. It would be even better if she could register him under her name. Then the Tong family will be able to help him sincerely.
"Your Majesty is very happy today, and I am also very happy. However, Concubine Yan is dead, and the Fourth Prince cannot have such a biological mother. It is better to register him under my name. I will definitely treat him as my own son."
Xiaozhuang suddenly felt as if something had clicked in her mind. It seemed that Concubine Tong had wanted to get rid of Concubine Yan and occupy Yinzhen, but unfortunately, she didn't allow it.
"Concubine Yan's fault has nothing to do with Xiao Si. I am not someone who cannot distinguish right from wrong. This matter will not implicate him. Let's not talk about this matter anymore. I don't agree."
Concubine Tong's face turned pale. Didn't he think that she would be sad and upset after rejecting her so bluntly? As expected, he only had eyes for Mu Sili, a woman who couldn't even give birth to a prince.
"I have overstepped my bounds. I am also worried that the Fourth Prince will feel inferior when he grows up knowing this. Since the Emperor disagrees, I will never mention this matter again."
"I'm tired, Suma, let's go back to the Cining Palace."
"yes."
"What you need to do now is take good care of Xiao Si and prepare for Ke Jing's full moon banquet. I don't want the situation that happened to the Royal Mam to happen again in the harem. Do you understand?"
"I understand."
Mu Sili had no reaction at all to the news that she was promoted to concubine and moved to the palace. She was busy staring at her new daughter.
"My daughter is beautiful. Although I don't know what the Empress Dowager looked like when she was young, I can vaguely tell that she does resemble her. This girl is blessed."
"That's right. I also think the princess is blessed. You made her a concubine right after she was born. I'm afraid she will be a consort soon."
But it won't be long before she is crowned as a concubine. In a few days, there will be discussions in the court about establishing her as the empress, and Concubine Tong will be unable to sit still.
"Take good care of Kejing. Didn't the emperor move me to another palace? Pack up and move in. I lived in Yikun Palace to disgust the commoner Guo Luoluo. Now that she's gone, I don't want to stay here anymore."
"You just gave birth, why don't you wait until you're done with your confinement before moving in? I'm afraid you won't feel comfortable if you don't have a good confinement."
"That's right. I'll move there after I finish my confinement. Remember to send someone to check. There are too many dirty tricks in this palace. It doesn't matter if they attack me, but I'm afraid someone will attack Ke Jing."
"Don't worry, Madam, I know what to do."
Kangxi likes Kejing very much and comes to Yikun Palace to see her whenever he has time. Mu Sili is helpless. Why didn’t she realize that he is a daughter slave before?
That's not true. There are clues. Princess Rongxian, born to Concubine Rong, was very much loved by him. It's a pity that most of Kangxi's favor will be given to Kejing in the future.
A month later, Kangxi held a full-moon banquet for Kejing in Yonghe Palace. He thought that since Mu Sili was moving to Yonghe Palace, holding a full-moon banquet here would be a way to warm her up, so he decided to hold it there.
"Kejing is so young, yet the emperor dotes on her like this. Won't she cause trouble when she grows up?"
"My daughter is already noble, and it is only right that she be pampered. If she really makes trouble in the future, I will support her."
"Please dote on me. Why is Your Highness the Crown Prince so far away? Come, come closer so you can see your sister. Our Crown Prince is your elder brother. You must take good care of your sister in the future."
The prince had heard someone say that Kangxi doted on Mu Sili to the point that she was a little ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth, and he felt uncomfortable about it, but today it seemed that this was not the case, and he was confused.
Wasn't it said that Concubine Zhao was arrogant and still coveted his position as the crown prince? Why doesn't it look like that's the case?
"The Emperor held her too high, I couldn't see her."
Kangxi smiled and held Kejing in front of him to show her. The prince took a symbolic look at her and then presented her with the jade pendant he had carefully selected.
"This is the jade pendant I gave to my fourth sister. If Concubine Zhao doesn't mind, I'll give it to her when she's older. I think she'll like it."
"Did His Highness choose it personally? It's really beautiful. Ke Jing will definitely like it when she sees it."
The prince smiled embarrassedly. It seemed that Concubine Zhao was not as arrogant as the rumors said. Who was saying bad things about her?
"The Crown Prince and Ke Jing really hit it off. When Xiao Si was one month old, the Crown Prince didn't give her anything. It's true that brothers are not as good as sisters."
