The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Li Dequan looked at the inner room and then outside the palace, which was the location of Xianfu Palace. He blessed the eunuch softly and said, "Go to the imperial physician and find out the specific situation of Xianfu Palace."

The main purpose is to find out how the concubine Bila is doing now. Different situations naturally require different ways of dealing with them!

Eunuch Li's words were cryptic, but since the young eunuch was pointed out by Li Dequan to get information, he was not stupid, at least he had some cleverness. He nodded immediately and said, "Don't worry, eunuch, I understand!"

As for the fact that Eunuch Li did not bother the emperor at all, he did not ask. Can't we see the emperor's attitude at ordinary times? He, Xiao Anzi, is not a person without vision. He can see a lot of the emperor's intentions!

Although Li Dequan had sent people aside, Aunt Chen was not completely unaware of what was going on. However, she had other plans. Although the concubine was favored, she was also at the center of the storm.

Such a small matter can also become a big thing. If the servants of Chengqian Palace go out to inquire about it, it will inevitably be inconvenient. If they go back to ask Li Dequan, the chief steward, a question, I think Li Dequan will not hide such a small matter.

Therefore, Aunt Chen did not send anyone out to investigate.

But Aunt Chen had no intention of disobeying Li Dequan's words or decisions. With Eunuch Li here, even if something happened, it would not be their turn to make the decision.

Thinking of this, Aunt Chen felt more at ease and waited patiently for Eunuch Li Dequan to make a decision.

They all stayed up all night, so they were destined not to have a good sleep tonight. Aunt Chen thought to herself! With this realization.

This is really true. In the daytime, there was a banquet to celebrate the fifth prince's third birthday. However, a day later, the only pregnant concubine in the palace had her period.

In the palace, spotting is a major event for pregnant women; it usually means something bad! The dragon fetus in the belly is also likely to die.

Li Dequan, the chief steward, also knew this clearly. Otherwise, Li Dequan would not have such an expression! Aunt Chen didn't say that she could get a perfect score! At least she could get 4 or 5 points.

Xiao Anzi was fast enough, but Xianfu Palace and Chengqian Palace were not on the way, so he brought back the news quickly. Before Eunuch Li could even close his eyes, Aunt Chen no longer avoided him. Although they were some distance away, she heard everything clearly.

Xiao Anzi reported back, "I have found out everything and have also consulted the imperial physicians in detail. After receiving the news, the Empress and Concubine Niuhulu have already gone to Concubine Bila in Xianfu Palace. The imperial physicians said that Concubine Bila was depressed, her mood was fluctuating, and she was angry. She had a lot of spotting. I saw carefully that the blood was carried out in basins. I am afraid that the dragon fetus in Concubine Bila's belly...can no longer be saved."

The imperial doctors dared to say such things, they must have made a conclusion, but they were used to speaking tactfully, and in order not to appear incompetent, they left some room for maneuver.

Li Dequan was so anxious that he said, "What can we do? We just held a third-day bathing banquet for the Fifth Prince in the daytime, and something like this happened in the evening. The Emperor drank a lot of wine in the daytime. If he doesn't get a good rest tonight, what will happen if his health is damaged?"

Aunt Chen was also worried. Would Li Dequan's skills be enough for them to practice for a long time? They had to learn how to speak and act. Although she knew it in her heart, Aunt Chen still approached Li Dequan worriedly and suggested with a frown: "This is about the royal heir, which is extremely important. Why don't we report it to the emperor and ask him to make a decision."

Li Dequan thought again and again, this is about the heir to the throne, nothing can be taken lightly. Even if the emperor doesn't care about this heir to the throne! Li Dequan looked up at Aunt Chen and said, "Aunt Chen, you are also an old man in the palace. As a slave, you naturally know the best to think about your master."

Aunt Chen smiled bitterly, "I am just incompetent. In terms of ability and serving the emperor, how can I compare to you, Eunuch Li! In front of you, how dare I put on airs?"

A sudden show of goodwill is bound to bring bad luck. Especially at this time, Aunt Chen did not dare to take the risk of knocking on the door of the emperor and the concubine. Eunuch Li was a well-known figure, and she was also a well-known figure. "The emperor is so powerful that I dare not imagine how furious he will be when I report this news." Even if Aunt Chen had only a little brain left, she did not dare to knock on the emperor's door.

In other words, even if she could knock, Aunt Chen would not do it. That's called... overstepping one's authority! Li Dequan's methods are not fake. Anyone who dares to block Li Dequan's position as Eunuch Li must be prepared to compete with him.

Aunt Chen was not prepared to create such a big enemy for Zhen Shun Zhai and the concubine, especially since this person was the chief steward of the Qianqing Palace and the most trusted confidant of the emperor.

Li Dequan knew that no one could be relied upon for this matter! Otherwise, someone would have taken his position long ago. Others did not take the position because they did not want to? No; it was because they did not have the ability, could not hold the position steadily, and could not take the position.

Li Dequan gritted his teeth; the useless servants under him could not handle such a thing.

Thinking about the emperor who was still sleeping peacefully after the commotion in the palace, Li Dequan considered all the options and estimated the emperor's usual attitude and feelings. He gritted his teeth, made up his mind, took a few steps forward, and carefully knocked on the door.

There was no sound from inside, so Li Dequan knocked on the door again. He did this two or three times before the emperor's voice, with a hint of impatience, came out from inside, "Speak!"

The emperor may not be grumpy when waking up, but no one would be happy if he was woken up from a good sleep, especially since he is the emperor who has always been supreme.

Li Dequan breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that he replied. It didn't matter whether the tone was good or not. Li Dequan, the eunuch, was used to it. The emperor! The emperor! It's inevitable that he has a temper. This is the best time.

Li Dequan replied, "Your Majesty, the Empress and Consort Niuhulu have already gone to Xianfu Palace. Just now, news came from Xianfu Palace that Consort Bila has had a heavy period, and the dragon fetus in her belly may not be safe."

There was silence in the palace for a while, and Li Dequan replied carefully: "The Empress and Consort Niuhulu are now in Xianfu Palace."

The implication is that the pregnancy was aborted in Xianfu Palace, but it was not a big deal, as the Empress and Consort Nianhulu were both there. Now, it all depended on what the Emperor would do.

Either you go and take a look, or you don't.

"The Empress has the final say on matters concerning the harem." Kangxi had become much more sober. Bila's pregnancy was already unpreservable, and there was no value in her that was worthy of the emperor's attention. So, what would be the final result? Kangxi no longer had to care so much.

At this time, it was already clear that this was an emperor, a ruthless person.

The people in the harem have poor vision.

After Emperor Kangxi finished his reply, he continued to sleep with his beloved concubine in his arms! Qin Rou was smart. When she heard the knock on the door, she pulled the quilt over her head in a daze.

All this time, she was not woken up!
