Chapter 207 Empress Dowager Ci’an 7
Chapter 207 Empress Dowager Ci’an 7
Gu Nian: "My beloved, pay attention to the injury on your hand."
Gu Nian stood up.
Kangxi was so focused that he didn't pay attention.
Pick up the ledger.
The account book of the Account Department is densely packed with account transactions.
There was no official in the Manchu Dynasty who did not borrow money from the Ministry of Household Affairs.
A few days ago, I dealt with the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue. These people returned some, but half of them were not returned.
It seems that the previous method of killing chickens to scare monkeys does not work.
Snowflakes are falling.
This is the first snow this year.
so good.
Gu Nian wrote an edict to prepare for the great scientific examination.
My stomach growls.
Gu Nian raised his head and looked at the chiming clock on the wall.
No wonder I was mumbling to myself that it was time.
"Wang Da passes on the meal."
"Whoo."
Kangxi only raised his head slightly when he heard the movement.
Gu Nian took out the pen from Kangxi's hand: "Let's get here first today."
"Pay attention to rest."
"Especially since your hand just got hurt."
Gu Nian: "Get ready for dinner."
The table is filled with meals.
Two people sit next to each other.
Lotus root and pork ribs soup was served in front of Kangxi.
Kangxi, who was fine at first, suddenly felt nauseous and his stomach began to churn.
Holding his chest, he vomited wildly.
After being hungry for a day, there was nothing in my stomach, and all the gall vomited came out.
Seeing Kangxi's appearance, the palace attendants were so frightened that they froze in place.
"Why are you still standing there? Why don't you go find the imperial doctor quickly?"
"Hey!!"
Wang Da trotted out.
Only then did the nauseating feeling fade away.
The feeling of nausea just now seemed to be an illusion.
Little did he know that the pork ribs soup that had just made him nauseous had been pushed aside, and Kangxi naturally felt less nauseous when he couldn't smell it.
Kangxi: "I feel much better now. There is no need to summon the imperial doctor."
Gu Nian: "No, my beloved concubine's health is important. If the imperial doctor comes to see if everything is okay, I will feel relieved."
What else could Kangxi say?
The doctor who came was the best doctor in the hospital.
Wang Da thought that the emperor must think so.
Kangxi didn't have a good appetite and only ate a little white porridge.
After the imperial doctor arrived, Kangxi sat on the couch.
The couch was lit by firewood, and it was warm underneath.
He looked a little lazy unconsciously.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Zhen is pregnant. According to the date, it should be a month old. Although the month is lighter now, she is indeed pregnant."
"What??"
Two voices said in unison.
But they all looked at the imperial doctor with different eyes.
Gu Nian is happy.
These were all within Gu Nian's expectations.
Unlike Gu Nian's joy, Kangxi was shocked.
Shocked beyond measure.
Don’t you know whether you have done this or not?
Kangxi: "Physician, are you sure you didn't make a mistake in your diagnosis?"
"My dear concubine, I have a unique knowledge in my family, and I have my own experience in treating pregnant women. Not to mention that you are one month old, I can even diagnose your pulse in just a few days."
Kangxi: This? ?
Nothing has ever happened between me and this unfilial descendant.
How could this possibly lead to pregnancy?
What does this unfilial descendant look like now?
Happy?
Could it be that he is confused?
When Kangxi thought about it carefully, he felt more and more something was wrong.
I know clearly that nothing happened, and it is impossible for him not to remember.
Is there something else that I don't know about? ?
"Concubine Zhen, you have to believe what the imperial doctor says. This is my first child, and I am very happy. You have to take good care of the baby and don't be too irritable."
Kangxi: What do you mean by not being too irritable? When have I ever been irritable? ?
Don't tell me when it was, Kangxi looked very much like he did after he had become violent. He looked the same anytime and anywhere.
"I want to reward you for such a happy thing. Seeing that winter is coming soon, the palace ladies in the palace will have two more winter clothes each."
"I would like to thank the Emperor for all the servants in the palace."
"This is my first child. If it is a boy, I will make him a prince."
Kangxi suddenly raised his head and looked at Gu Nian: Prince?
I made such a promise before I was born, and there is no child in my belly, so it is intentional.
Deliberately push yourself out and push yourself to the forefront.
Kangxi had to start conspiracy theories.
This feeling is very bad.
There is a feeling that I am a fish and the knife is in someone else's hand.
I am the fish on the chopping board, and I will die at any time.
There's always something familiar about these means.
Just what I have used before.
I had never felt anything before. As an emperor, everyone else was just a pawn.
But now, he is a pawn.
Uncomfortably tight.
This kind of discomfort is worse than killing yourself.
He even trampled the former emperor to the ground.
"You all go down."
"I want to be alone with my concubine."
After everyone exited, Kangxi stood up, looked at Gu Nian at eye level but looked at Gu Nian with stern eyes and said, "Why does the emperor do this?"
"Nothing happened between my concubine and the emperor. She must not be able to get pregnant. Today, my concubine was diagnosed as pregnant by the imperial doctor. This must be the emperor's handiwork."
"Yes, my concubine is indeed smart. This is all my own work. I have no intention of hiding my concubine."
"Why is the emperor doing this? Do you want me to be at the forefront of the storm?"
"I don't understand the emperor's deep meaning behind this."
"Is it possible that the emperor has someone he loves, so it is not possible for me to serve as a shield for the person he loves? Could it be that the person the emperor loves is Lan Guiren?"
Kangxi had a great imagination, thinking that Lan Guiren would become the Queen Mother of the First Palace in the future, and this idea appeared.
After hearing this, Gu Nian looked at Kangxi in disbelief and laughed out loud.
"You are thinking too much."
"No, I don't have a sweetheart either."
"What if this is about my sweetheart..." Gu Nian deliberately paused for a moment.
Then he leaned forward and said with a smile: "If I can't help but say yes, then it's you, my beloved concubine."
Kangxi: I was teased.
Kangxi was surprised that he was not angry.
This feeling is very strange.
Gu Nian: "I did this for another thing, and my concubine's belly is an important part of it."
"You had a conflict with Lan Gui a few days ago. How well do you know this person?"
"I don't understand."
Just these three words, Kangxi's tone already contained murderous intent.
"This time my game is just for her."
"she??"
"But it's not my sweetheart, but I want to get rid of her quickly. If she suddenly dies just after entering the palace, it will inevitably make people suspicious, so I came up with such a way to get rid of her once and for all."
"Otherwise, it would be bad if I die and still make my life uneasy."
Kangxi was confused at first, and then felt happy. This was what he wanted to do, and it happened to coincide with it.
why is that? ?
Kangxi asked: "Why??"
"I think you have murderous intentions for this woman. Why?"
Kangxi naturally walked out, sat down and only said: "She is Yehenala."
Gu Nian didn't believe it.
He shook his head and said, "Do you believe me?"
"Yehenara has had more than one concubine in the harem for so many years. Your reason is really far-fetched. If this is really the reason, it should be because I am anxious."
The reason is not valid.
Gu Nian looked directly at Kangxi, waiting for Kangxi's explanation.
"I think this woman will do bad things, maybe she will destroy the entire Qing Dynasty."
Kangxi said it ambiguously.
Gu Nian: In the future, does this Kangxi know about the future?
No wonder, he had murderous intention towards Lan Guiren.
Now that we know what's going to happen in the future, it's easier to handle.
Gu Nian looked at Kangxi with burning eyes: "It's just as I thought."
The two looked at each other, and a hint of tacit understanding flowed in their eyes... Kangxi even felt a sense of confidant in his heart.
"What do you need me to do?"
There is still a sequel to this matter.
Kangxi also knew that his mission had not been completed, and he was willing to get involved if he could get rid of Lan Guiren.
Gu Nian: "Do you know how to swim?"
Kangxi: "No."
Gu Nian: "It doesn't matter, I will protect you when the time comes."
Gu Nian: "..."
.............
Yanxi Palace,
"Pregnant, actually pregnant, you bitch."
"Your Majesty, the Emperor also said that if a little brother is born in the concubine's belly, he will be the prince."
"Prince??"
Li Bin's face was already distorted.
"Sister, don't be angry. It depends on whether the child in Zhenbi's belly is lucky enough to be born."
Lan Guiren's charming voice sounded from the side.
No, since the two formed an alliance.
Lan Guiren came to Libi's Yanxi Palace to sit there every day.
The two share the same hatred.
Lan Guiren is also ambitious, and he is not willing to die of old age in this harem all his life.
I even want to give birth to a son to inherit the throne.
Now Kangxi is blocking Lan Guiren's way.
Li Bin and Lan Guiren looked at each other and coincided.
............
Zhongcui Palace,
Kangxi's madness continued.
Although it was a false pregnancy, there were no symptoms of pregnancy at all.
I feel groggy every day, and I can't seem to cheer up for anything I do.
Sometimes I want to eat sour food, sometimes I want to eat spicy food, the taste is changeable.
When it was served, I couldn't eat much.
If you eat it, you will vomit it all out.
His whole body was as spiritless as a flower beaten by frost.
Kangxi lay flat on the toffee chair, the only way to feel more comfortable.
"Your Majesty, it's time to eat."
The maid brought back the food from the royal kitchen and put it aside.
Bring the ones you made with your own hands and swap them with each other.
"Your Majesty, the servant has been changed. Are you hungry? Come and eat."
"Is it necessary to go to such trouble??"
"Your Majesty, you are a twin now. Your Majesty has specifically ordered that you can only eat food cooked by your servants, not even food brought back from the imperial kitchen. Your Majesty, your Majesty, is so kind to you..."
Kangxi also had to admit that Gu Nian was really good to him.
An emperor loved his concubine to the core.
The rest of the food was thrown away, and he left the palace on the way the next morning.
Unexpectedly, the white kitten raised by the original owner was greedy and accidentally ate it.
Eat big mouthfuls.
When the palace maid found out, she quickly stopped her.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Kangxi finished eating, the kitten started to feel strange.
He started rolling on the ground and screamed from his mouth.
"Ouch, ouch..."
“Mother, what’s going on??”
"Call the doctor."
"Mother, where are the veterinarians in this palace?"
"The imperial doctor has superb medical skills, and he can be seen by Xiaobai as well."
The imperial doctor thought something happened to Kangxi, but it turned out to be the cat.
"Imperial doctor, I don't know what's wrong with my cat. Please take a look quickly."
Doctor: Thank you very much.
As a great doctor, he came here to diagnose this little white cat.
"Slave, let's take a look."
The imperial doctor picked up the cat and looked left and right.
"Mother, your cat may be acting like this after eating something cold."
"Physician, the cat is acting like this just after eating some food."
The palace maid brought the food that the cat had just eaten and showed it to the imperial doctor.
"Physician, see if there is anything wrong here?"
The imperial physician picked up the food and put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it.
His complexion changed slightly.
"My Lady, there is indeed something cold in this food."
Being drugged.
Kangxi, the palace maids, and the imperial doctors all knew what was going on.
It's just not made clear.
"Mother, how much of this food have you eaten?"
"I didn't eat."
"Fortunately, my dear, you haven't eaten anything. It doesn't matter if you eat this cold thing once, but if you eat it several times, it will be a sign of miscarriage."
Surprise flashed in Kangxi's eyes, my belly was now on people's minds.
I really underestimated the jealousy of women.
"As expected, your Majesty, everything the Emperor said is right. Fortunately, everything you eat is prepared by my slave, otherwise..."
The consequences could be disastrous.
Kangxi: "Thank you, imperial physician. I'm sorry to trouble you today, but I ask the imperial physician to keep a secret about today's affairs. Just say that I just caught a cold occasionally."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, my slave will definitely keep his mouth shut."
Kangxi: "Xiaobai??"
Kangxi looked at the little white cat.
"My slave will give the cat some medicine, make it into pills, and feed it to the cat."
The little white cat took the medicine and stopped.
She yelled coquettishly at Kangxi.
Picking up a cat is just a little pitiful.
"Are you still greedy??"
Kangxi hugged Xiaobai, and Xiaobai responded: "Meow meow meow meow."
I don’t dare to be greedy anymore.
.............
In the Imperial Garden,
Kangxi wore colorful clothes.
Wearing a red flag dress and a green headband on her head.
It is very conspicuous in the white snow.
Kangxi transformed into a conspicuous bag.
Standing in the pavilion.
He was still holding the heater in his hand.
She is wearing a large cloak with flowers embroidered with gold threads and peonies on the stems.
It looks like a flower of wealth in the world.
At first glance, she looks pampered.
This look is said to make people jealous.
This cloak and this outfit are not what a concubine should have.
They were all rewarded by the emperor.
Kangxi sat on the seat in the pavilion, leaning against the pavilion chair.
There is a pond under the pavilion. This place is built on the pond...you can see the ice surface by looking down.
The ice is not frozen solid, and you can still see koi carps swimming around in the pond in the pavilion.
Li Bin and Lan Guiren came out together and happened to look at Kangxi sitting in the pavilion.
"Sister, look."
Lan Guiren motioned to Concubine Li to look over.
"She doesn't look like a concubine, she looks like a concubine. This is really putting you in comparison to my sister."
"Sister, you are the most noble person in this harem."
Lan Guiren fanned the flames.
Li Bin: "My sister is right. I know that my sister and I have a deep love for each other. It depends on my sister's performance today."
Li Bin is not a fool either.
Concubine Zhen is pregnant, and the emperor attaches great importance to the child in her belly, so he can do it himself? impossible.
Looking at the flattering Lan Guiren on the side, she happened to be there.
The ideas of Lan Gui and Li Bi were highly integrated at this time.
They are all in the harem, so there is no deep sisterly affection.
"Sister Yulan, let's go over and take a look. I haven't seen my sister Zhenbi these days. It's hard to see her today. Let's go over and catch up on old times."
The two of them walked over, shaking their graceful figures.
"Mother, they are here."
The palace maid reminded quietly from the side.
"I know."
Kangxi did not look at the two of them, but still looked at the pond.
"My sister is really enjoying herself. It's such a cold day to watch the fish here, but she should be careful. Be careful of the child in her belly."
Li's concubine's strange voice rang in Kangxi's ears.
Only then did Kangxi look over.
His eyes were extremely independent, and he looked like he didn't even bother to join in the trouble with the two of them.
Li Bin was aroused by the look.
Libi: Why are you pretending to be noble? Isn’t it just that he has the emperor’s favor? Without the emperor's favor, it would be nothing.
"I won't bother Empress Li and Guiren Lan to care about me. I'm fine, and the baby in my belly is fine too."
"The emperor treats me better."
"These days, the emperor comes to see me every day, and has given me many things. I wonder if Empress Li and Guiren Lan are still here."
Kangxi raised his hand pretentiously, revealing the pink pearls on his hand.
It's really big.
Such a big pearl is priceless.
It is priceless but not marketable.
Even if you want to buy it, you can't.
Kangxi didn't know how much he deserved a beating and how arrogant he looked.
Concubine Li and Guiren Lan in front of them wanted to tear Kangxi's mouth to pieces.
"The Emperor really dotes on my sister. I have never seen such a big pearl sister."
"A few days ago, my sister heard that my elder sister was infected with wind-cold. It's hard to get well if you go out in such a cold day."
He spoke words of concern, but there was deep malice hidden in his eyes. These words were spoken behind his back. In fact, he hoped that there would be no child in Kangxi's belly.
Kangxi: "Don't worry, Lord Laolan. When you have a little brother in your belly, maybe the emperor will treat you like this."
The smile on Lan Guiren's face could no longer be maintained.
This is to rub salt in the wound and poke directly into the heart.
Lan Guiren looked at Kangxi fiercely.
"I will go back first and leave this place to Empress Li and Guiren Lan."
