Rong Fei is not honored

Chapter 206 Only one chance

"I am indeed happy, but even though I am happy, I will not miss the opportunity to get rid of you. As a favorite concubine with a son, would anyone miss such a good opportunity?"

"I see."

Seeing that Concubine Hui had given up the idea, Nanny Wu finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, she could not take it lightly and had to keep a close eye on the situation to prevent any disaster from happening.

Cui Xin, who was standing aside, lowered her head as usual, so that no one could see her. While listening to the conversation between the master and servant, everyone else was terrified, except her, who had a dark light flashing in her eyes.

Concubine Hui seemed to agree on the surface, but in fact she was almost going crazy.

Since Nanny Wu represents the Emperor, that means that the Emperor agrees that I can take action against the Queen, but will not allow me to harm the royal heir.

Why? Why!

Her Chengqing was dead, dead! But the child of that vicious woman was still alive, this was not fair! Only by letting the queen also taste the heart-wrenching pain of losing her son could the resentment of Concubine Hui be slightly alleviated.

But the Emperor disagreed. He did not agree with Concubine Hui taking action against the vicious woman's child. He was still protecting the Queen's child.

Yes, how could she forget that Chenghu was also his child, his legitimate son. How could a dead child compare to a living legitimate son?

At this moment, Concubine Hui felt that she was very stupid. She really thought that the emperor's favor was reliable. There were so many examples in her previous life reminding her that if a man can be relied on, even a sow can climb a tree.

But she actually believed it, believed that a man, an emperor at that, could be her support. The royal family was so heartless, had she watched all those movies and TV series in her previous life in vain?

Concubine Hui suddenly felt a little resentful, but this resentment was not directed at the Queen, but at Kangxi's deception.

She was deceived into thinking that she had the courage to confront the Queen, but her hopes were shattered at the critical moment; she was deceived into thinking that they had a deep friendship, but it turned out that all feelings were not as good as the word orthodoxy; she was deceived into thinking that the other party really held her in his hands, but in fact it was just to suppress the Queen.

Yes, Concubine Hui had figured it out. Her later ostentatious behavior was merely the result of Kangxi's indulgence. She did so only to elevate herself and compete with the queen.

Come to think of it, it seemed that she suddenly became favored after the Queen started to make stupid moves. Even if Concubine Hui was unwilling, she had to admit that perhaps her favor was a scam from the beginning to the end, and Kangxi was just using her to express his dissatisfaction with the Queen.

No, no, you can't think like that. If that's the case, it would be terrible.

Concubine Hui bit her nails neurotically.

This was a subconscious action she would take when she felt insecure. In the past, when her mother saw this, she would slap her on the back of her hand mercilessly, but now, no one would remind her.

Moreover, since she crossed over, she has always been proud and confident, so she has never bitten her nails again. Now her subconscious actions made her pick up Jiufeng's memory.

She was a little homesick.

In this world, I seem to be a lonely person, so out of place.

Concubine Hui could only comfort herself that Kangxi was considered a wise ruler in history. Besides, how could such an accomplished emperor put himself in a difficult position?

Therefore, Kangxi must have liked me, and it would be easy for him to use me to check and balance the queen.

If not, why would Kangxi get angry when the empress was about to slap him, and then warn him afterwards? He could have simply defended himself to the end and saved the empress's face.

If not, why would Kangxi pretend to be ignorant when he used the child to frame the queen, allowing the queen's reputation to be ruined and causing a storm of dethroning the queen in the previous dynasty?

Therefore, in Kangxi's heart, the queen is both important and unimportant.

The empress could not be charged with the crime of murdering the royal heir, as this would bring shame to the royal family, so Kangxi did not punish the empress.

But perhaps that time at the flower-viewing banquet, no serious consequences occurred. He and his child were fine. Or perhaps Kangxi did not want to be accused of framing the queen, so he did not overturn the queen's case.

Concubine Hui guessed that perhaps the Queen's previous actions did not leave much evidence, so even if Kangxi wanted to convict the Queen, he could not just use those specious evidences.

As it happened, her actions gave Kangxi an excuse, a justifiable reason that no one could question. It was both a punishment and a warning, reminding the queen not to attack the heir to the throne again.

However, she didn't expect that the other concubines thought it was a great opportunity and passed the news to their respective families. Their families also thought it was a good opportunity to overthrow the queen, so they made such a big fuss about the matter.

Kangxi naturally would not want anything to happen to his children, whether it was Chengqing or Chenghu, they were all his children. But for the women in the harem, it was not the case, those princes and princesses were the children of the emperor, but they were also the blood of other women.

There is no better form of revenge than to kill a mother's child.

However, her status as queen protected her, and Concubine Hui could only rely on Kangxi. If she really took action against Chenghu, it would inevitably anger Kangxi.

So, there is only one chance.

Yes, Concubine Hui knew that doing so might cause her to lose favor, but she was not afraid. She only wanted to avenge Chengqing.

Chengqing, please wait a moment. I will soon send Chenghu down to accompany you. Then you won’t be alone and scared underground anymore.

Zhongcuigong

After Kangxi obtained the order of the Empress Dowager for Ji Nai, he came to Zhongcui Palace. Although he did not say it explicitly, his intention was to "ask for reward."

Ji Nai was very surprised. She didn't expect that she would become Rongpin again in her new life. She didn't expect that Kangxi would give her the title without saying a word.

You know, I am already unique in the harem where the rank is not determined.

Moreover, if the original trajectory had been followed, it would have to wait until the 16th year of Kangxi's reign before the six palaces would be conferred titles. If I had taken the lead, wouldn't I have surely become a concubine?

Ji Nai's heart was pounding.

Even if something unexpected happened and she was not promoted, the qualifications and status of being a concubine in her early years and being a concubine for the first time would be different. She would always be the first among the concubines, instead of being suppressed by Concubine An, Concubine Jing, and Concubine Duan like in her previous life.

In fact, Ji Nai was very concerned about her position. In her previous life, she had been a concubine for more than ten years. When the six palaces were conferred the title of emperor for the first time, she was ranked fourth among the seven concubines. But when the six palaces were conferred the title of emperor for the second time, she became the last of the four concubines.

On the other hand, Nara, who entered the palace at the same time as herself, became the head of the four concubines because she was the mother of the eldest prince, and everyone looked up to her.

Not to mention that in the 16th year of Kangxi's reign, Guo Luoluo and Uya, who had just entered the palace not long ago, became Concubine Yi and Concubine De in just a few years. It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others.
