The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 329 Things are unpredictable!
After hurrying and hurrying, they finally entered the gate of Xianfu Palace. The concubines finally held the hands of the servants and breathed a sigh of relief. "We hurried and hurried, and finally entered the main gate of Xianfu Palace. I wonder how sister Bila is doing." Concubine Dong asked with concern.

Concubine Bila lived in the west side hall of the rear hall of Xianfu Palace, which was quite a distance away from Concubine Bila's bedroom.

"What Sister Dong is worried about," Concubine Lan said, is that most of those who are favored or have favors in the palace now have the same characteristics: well-behaved, sensible, and obedient.

At least Qin Rou saw this in Concubine Wen and Concubine Lan, and if you think about it carefully, you can also vaguely see this in Concubine Li, Concubine Dong, Concubine Ma Jia, and Concubine Nara (Ye He).

It was especially obvious in the concubines Wen and Lan. Qinrou probably also had this kind of trait, at least she showed it.

When you think about it this way, Kangxi’s preferences are particularly obvious.

But then again, there were few concubines in the harem who were ignorant and docile, so why didn't the emperor favor all of them? Thinking about it carefully, I felt that it didn't make sense.

But Kangxi's preferences were still very obvious. He liked obedient and docile concubines. Almost every emperor who had just come to power was like this. He was in control of power, and because of the instability of power, he indirectly showed his desire to control his concubines.

Even cats and dogs have temper tantrums. Why is it that humans, as a higher, even the most advanced species, have to have the word "gentle" engraved into their bones?
Such a social system could not help but make Qinrou feel horrified.

But no one cared about Qinrou's thoughts. Qinrou would never reveal her feelings to the world. Even to the palace maids and eunuchs around her, Qinrou would not reveal a single word.

But Concubine Lan continued, "Although we are sisters, we are incompetent. We are not proficient in medicine, nor do we understand medical principles. When it comes to pathology, our knowledge is really shallow. Apart from worrying about sister Bila's health, we are also powerless and can't help."

"That's true!" Concubine Wen nodded in agreement. Her agreement was also weak and silent.

"This place is still some distance from Sister Bila's bedroom. When we get there, we'll know how Sister Bila is doing." Concubine Ma Jia reminded softly. A large group of people went to visit the concubines in the harem? They shouldn't have gone there talking and laughing, thinking that they didn't care?
Although this is the truth, and may even be uglier, face and public harmony are still very important.

Concubine Ma Jia didn't want to remind them, but she was smart and clear-headed. In the palace, people were always punished collectively. If there was a mistake in the future, the concubines present would inevitably be punished.

Even if she could escape punishment, her reputation would not be that good. When Concubine Bila was seriously ill, the concubines in the harem were laughing and playing? Concubine Majia wanted face and reputation. -- Or, at a certain point, people always pay special attention to these false reputations.

As for the truth and falsehood, few people would care. Therefore, people who are proud of their status often treat themselves more harshly in order to gain a good reputation.

In short! If you can't control other people's mouths, you can be harsh on your own behavior.

The concubines also knew the rules. Although they knew that Concubine Ma Jia's words were like a scolding, it seemed that all the concubines in the palace were ignorant and only she knew the rules and etiquette.

But no one showed it openly. In the palace, revenge is not something that should be taken on the spot. It is necessary to maintain a harmonious appearance.

The concubines kept silent because what Concubine Ma Jia said was right, and it was indeed the case. Moreover, although Concubine Ma Jia was also a concubine, she was indeed among the concubines, and the concubines did not dare to easily compare with her.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be Qin Rou's preferential treatment, Li Shufei's arrogance, and Zhang Shufei and Dong Shufei's confidence! Ma Jia Shufei has all these qualities, so she wouldn't think too low of herself. A person knows best whether he has confidence or not.

If there was no confidence, no one would have embarrassed Ma Jia concubine on the spot. Qin Rou was too lazy to spend this effort. If Ma Jia concubine wanted to be the one to take the lead, let her go! Although she was not afraid of Ma Jia concubine, why should she be afraid! Those who don't care don't care. She is a careless person, so naturally she doesn't need to care. But she was too lazy, what does it have to do with her.

Concubine Li would not oppose her! Concubine Ma Jia was not extremely smart, but she was particularly "competitive". She had the confidence, and there would be a more cruel reality to teach her. There was no need for her to add fuel to the fire in these small matters and help out.

Concubine Dong is even less able to speak. If Concubine Ma Jia wants to be in the limelight, let her do it. Concubine Dong doesn't need to be very smart or very eye-catching.

Because people pay attention to this point. If you pay less attention to it, everyone will bully you; if you pay more attention to it, you will also have to bear the price of everyone's jealousy. It's just right, neither too much nor too little!
Concubine Dong doesn't have many pursuits. At this moment and in the current situation, she just wants to be an average person, to protect the second princess and not be bullied by others. That would be the best.

Concubine Wen and Concubine Lan were not capable enough, and they were not competitive people. It would be easier for them to say something than to pray to heaven.

The rest of the concubines need not be mentioned. They are afraid and dreadful, and they always have to be cautious.

The only one who might encounter an accident is Concubine Zhang. Although Concubine Zhang is cowardly and flamboyant, she has her own advantages in surviving.

Others may look down on her, but they won't go to great lengths to harm her. After all, if they pull her down, will they be replaced by someone smarter? Who would do such a stupid thing?

Concubine Zhang, since the birth of the princes in the harem, has always praised the birth mothers of the princes. She is very good at judging people and bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

He would not bring shame to Concubine Ma Jia and Concubine Yehenala. Even if they were wrong, he would make them right.

Under the pressure of various reasons, everyone was surprisingly quiet.

All the concubines in the palace, supported and waited upon by their personal servants, marched in a grand and orderly manner towards the west side hall at the rear of the Xianfu Palace.

This was Qinrou's second time stepping into Xianfu Palace, and it was also the third time for many people to step into Xianfu Palace. The first time was when Concubine Bila became pregnant, and the concubines from all the palaces came to congratulate her with smiles on their faces!
The second time was the night before yesterday. It was on this night that Concubine Bila miscarried the royal heir who had caused the concubines in the harem to come to congratulate her with smiling faces the previous time.

Today is the third time.

It’s true that things in this world are unpredictable!

Qinrou sighed, but her steps were not disordered at all, and she walked towards Bila's bedroom with all the concubines in the palace.

Almost all the servants in Xianfu Palace were gathered in the west side hall of the rear palace. The two or three people around the concubine were not enough in such a serious disease and military chaos.

Therefore, the closer you get to Concubine Bila's bedroom, the more servants there are coming and going, busy and orderly.

The concubines entered the bedroom in such a messy yet orderly environment.
