The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 294

The Queen's closeness and intimacy were not entirely useless. At least the concubines all knew that the Tonggiya clan should not be offended easily and without reason.

The bloodline of the Tonggiya clan is extremely precious because of the half inherited by the emperor.

After the two wives of the Tong Jia clan arrived, the wives of the ministers and nobles in the court arrived next. They were all there to watch the ceremony!

However, because it was not yet time for the third-day bathing ceremony, the Queen asked them to enjoy the flowers and drink tea first. The Fifth Prince was in Yuhua Pavilion, which was closest to the Imperial Garden.

The wind was strong in spring. If the Fifth Prince was carried out and exposed to the wind and cold, it would be murder of the heir to the throne. The Queen would not do such a stupid thing. She had been a good wife and a loving mother for so many years and it was deeply rooted in her.

The queen would naturally not destroy her own image and dig her own grave.

The wives and concubines all expressed their understanding. No one was an ignorant child. The Fifth Prince was only three days old. It was a dangerous time!
If they caught a cold and got hurt, they would all be sinners. It is better not to ruin a lifetime of dignity because of a small thing.

Whether you have met him or not, are you still afraid that you will not have the chance to meet him?
Soon Kangxi also brought the princes of the royal family and the ministers of the former dynasty to the imperial garden. The queen led the concubines and the wives of the queen to welcome them.

Suddenly, the sound of a baby crying could be heard behind Kangxi. In the same world, when a baby in a cradle cries, the other babies will also cry immediately.

The nurse holding the 18th prince and the 19th princess hurriedly tried to comfort them, but the children started crying and it was not easy to stop them in a short time. So the nurse quickly knelt down and apologized!
When the crying sounded, the one who was most concerned was Prince An's third wife. She was the biological mother of the twins, and even if she didn't know what happened in the previous dynasty, Prince An's third wife could guess that the only babies who could be brought to the previous dynasty were probably the twins under her knees.

If that was the case, then the crying babies must be her little eighteen and little nineteen. The third wife of Prince An was performing the ceremony, even though she knew that little eighteen and little nineteen must be following behind Ama, and there were wet nurses waiting on them.

Prince An's third wife couldn't help but feel worried for a moment!
There is no father or mother who does not worry about their children. Even though Prince An's third wife was paying respects, she could not help wanting to look up at the sound of crying.

When Kangxi heard the crying, he turned around and looked at the two little babies crying in the nurse's arms. He quickly waved his hand and told the nurse, "Take them down and comfort them."

Upon hearing this, the wet nurses quickly carried the eighteenth prince and nineteenth princess from Prince An's mansion down. Even though the queen was still paying her respects, she quickly told the maidservant beside her, "Mammy, lead the way! The fifth prince is in Yuhua Pavilion, so let the eighteenth prince and the nineteenth prince go to Yuhua Pavilion as well, and ask the uncles, nephews, aunts, and nieces to keep them company."

The Queen's order was like timely rain. The nurses in Prince An's mansion were not familiar with the palaces and halls in the palace. Even if Kangxi gave them orders, they might not be able to find the way. After the Queen ordered the nurses to lead the way, they only needed to hold the princes and princesses and follow the nurses.

"The Queen has thought it through." Kangxi waved his hand and said, obviously approving the Queen's way of handling the matter. Of course, Kangxi did not think this was a big deal. When the Emperor really gave up power, he was extremely generous and remained a wise ruler.

Moreover, Emperor Kangxi also stepped forward and helped the Queen to stand up. After looking back, Kangxi said, "Stand up!"

The concubines and concubines who were kneeling behind the empress stood up silently after hearing Kangxi's instructions.

Upon hearing this, Prince An's third wife and Prince An, who were still performing the ceremony, breathed a sigh of relief. They were not worried about being punished for this, but Prince An's third wife loved her children even more. Among the nearly 40 children, one third survived. Especially this pair of twins, a boy and a girl, who represented auspiciousness, it would be strange if Prince An didn't love them.

Therefore, when the Eighteenth Prince and the Nineteenth Princess cried, Prince An and his third wife were instantly heartbroken.

After the nanny beside the Empress led the wet nurse holding the Eighteenth Prince and the Nineteenth Princess to the Yuhua Pavilion, Prince An immediately bowed and said, "The children cried and made a scene unreasonably. I apologize on their behalf."

Kangxi was not careful, "What crime has Uncle Wang committed? What crime have the two children committed? It is normal for two children to cry and make a fuss. Do you still expect them to know reason and ethics and be quiet?"

Kangxi would not cause trouble for two little children, especially for such a trivial matter as crying. They were a boy and a girl from Prince An's mansion.

Children, of course, don’t cry or make a fuss. Kangxi also knew a lot about children.

Besides, Prince An was a minister in the court. If he did his job well, Kangxi would only reward him. The twins were brought into the palace by order of the Empress Dowager.

Kangxi had already foreseen that they would cry and make a scene, so he would not get angry with the two children because of this.

Prince An also knew that the emperor would not blame him for this. But Prince An also knew that people's words were scary, and even if the emperor did not blame him, he could not pretend that the incident had not happened.

Since it happened.

Therefore, Prince An asked for forgiveness in advance. He did not think that the two babies in swaddling clothes would be guilty. Prince An had been an official in the court for many years and was able to make a firm judgment on this point.

But having received the emperor's favor, Prince An bowed again and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness and generosity."

Every little thing in the previous dynasty will become a big thing, so it is better to apologize first and shut everyone's mouths and ears.

"It is normal for a pair of babies in swaddling clothes to cry! What's more, it was the Empress Dowager and I who discussed asking you to bring them into the palace. I am too lazy to even bother with the word leniency for such a trivial matter." Kangxi said casually.

What about the auspicious fetus of dragon and phoenix? Although Kangxi did not believe in ghosts and gods, it did not mean that he did not like auspicious things. After all, people's hearts had to be controlled, not to mention that it was the Empress Dowager who personally asked to see him. Kangxi was a good grandson, and such a small thing that he casually asked could make the Empress Dowager happy.

As a filial emperor, Kangxi would naturally not go against the wishes of the Empress Dowager.

The Queen also said, "Children in every family are like this. When they are happy, they cry; when they are unhappy, they cry. They may cry in the morning or in the middle of the night. They cry at any time. How can you blame them? They will be fine when they grow up. Prince Uncle and Concubine Xingfu don't have to worry about it. This palace and the emperor are also parents. Let's not talk about the distant past. The fifth prince has just been born in the palace. This palace and the emperor know what children are like best."

So, how can we talk about blaming others or asking for forgiveness?
