The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 354 Birth date?

"Alright." The Empress Dowager said, without raising any objections. But servants, it won't be too late to deal with it later. The Empress Dowager said calmly: "I have already instructed the Imperial Observatory to calculate Baoqing's birth date again."

The Empress Dowager had great power, and she handled such a small matter without blinking an eye. She could make the decision first and then notify the Empress Dowager later with a frown, a sigh, and said worriedly: "The emperor's children are all in trouble. It's worrying to see them. It would be more reassuring to ask the Imperial Observatory to calculate it again."

"We should ask the Imperial Observatory to take a good look!" Emperor Kangxi nodded. The emperor's mind was mysterious and unpredictable, and no one knew what she meant by what she said.

Just from what they heard, it seemed that they wanted to ask the Imperial Observatory to calculate the horoscope for the prince again.

The Empress and Consort Niuhulu stood by and did not say a word. The Empress only served a cup of tea to the Grand Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager.

Qin Rou listened and realized that predictions based on birth dates might not be true. As long as one believed in fate, neither the Empress Dowager nor Emperor Kangxi would have lived to this day.

I just don't know what these two riddlers are thinking. There are too many things that can be done with birth date and horoscope! The servants of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory all serve the same master. They may not understand fortune-telling by reading characters, but they know very well that they are servants and serve their masters and follow their orders.

Qin Rou thought about it. But that has nothing to do with her! Qin Rou lowered her eyelids. The Empress Dowager and Kangxi, the children and grandchildren, have big minds and will not be limited to a small harem.

No matter how powerful their plans were, they probably couldn't affect her! So there was no need to worry about it.

But when people get sick, they blame the weather, the earth, or the air quality. What does it have to do with birth date? It’s a huge injustice! A big cauldron from heaven!

After a busy schedule by the imperial physicians and servants, the Fifth Prince's crying finally subsided. Although he still looked weak, his life would be safe if his condition did not worsen.

Everyone in the harem was relieved.

Kangxi ordered the servants to carry the Fifth Prince down. He was still recovering and his spirit was weak. The slightest noise could cause him to be upset. He was crying so hard that his lungs were broken. Just in case, it was better to have the servants carry him down and wait on him.

There were many people here and there was a lot of noise, which disturbed the Fifth Prince, and he started to cry and whimper again.

The queen looked at him for a while, and then suggested, "Let's ask Yuanyan to go and serve together! ... The servants around Concubine Nara should also stay for a while!"

After all, it has to be reviewed.

Who says that the servant around the biological mother can’t be the murderer?
"Doctor, tell me, why does the Fifth Prince have a bad spleen and stomach?" Emperors and many people in power are good at destroying bridges after crossing them. When the Fifth Prince was about to settle down, Kangxi had already begun to settle accounts and hold him accountable afterwards.

The doctors thought: The Fifth Prince is not their responsibility to serve, so even if he is unwell, it has nothing to do with them. Now that the emperor is holding them accountable, they can answer with a clear conscience: "Your Majesty, spleen and stomach problems are mostly caused by improper diet, imbalance between work and rest, and long-term illness."

The imperial physician talked freely and when asked about their expertise, they naturally had more room to speak. They first explained the reason and then attributed it to the Fifth Prince: "The Fifth Prince is a newborn and only ten days old. His spleen and stomach are still weak, so he can only rely on milk as a source of food. But the years are divided into spring, summer, autumn and winter, and people suffer from joy, anger, illness and pain. Perhaps the body suddenly becomes weak, or there may be some changes in the food taken or even the weather changes, which may also cause spleen and stomach disharmony." After explaining a lot of science, the imperial physician said: "From my pulse, the Fifth Prince's spleen and stomach were damaged first, and then caused discomfort." It was not that the body was unwell first, which led to spleen and stomach disharmony.

Qin Rou listened to a long paragraph, but didn't quite understand it! So the imperial physician meant that the Fifth Prince's spleen and stomach were not in harmony, was it man-made? It sounded like this. Maybe she was too sensitive, so she would think the worst of everything she saw and heard.

The truth is, this world has not shown her any kindness at all!
The emperor looked at the imperial physician, and the servants around him were trembling. Concubine Yehenara, his biological mother, had already taken the child to another room to coax him, and Mrs. Yehenara was also with her. Mrs. Yehenara was so frightened by the Fifth Prince's minor illness that she broke out in a cold sweat!
It can be said that when the eldest grandson or grandson in the family got sick and cried, Mrs. Yehenala was not so worried. When the fifth prince started crying, Mrs. Yehenala rushed to the fifth prince's baby room.

Even though there were nurses and servants, Mrs. Yehenara did not rush to hold the baby and comfort him. It was Mrs. Yehenara who immediately ordered the servants to report to the Queen in Kunning Palace and ask the Queen to summon the imperial physician.

Later, the Fifth Prince kept crying. Concubine Yehenala, who was originally lying on the bed to recuperate, forced herself to move slowly to the Fifth Prince's side. She waved away the wet nurse, and personally held the Fifth Prince in her arms to comfort him.

The palace of Yanxi Palace already attracted a lot of attention because of the presence of the Fifth Prince. So once the Fifth Prince started to cry and make a scene, the news that he was unwell was almost known to everyone in the palace.

"Take the nurse's pulse!" Emperor Kangxi ordered the imperial physician. The Fifth Prince was still so young, and almost everything he could eat was the nurse's milk. The nurse was not in good health, and the quality of her milk was not good. It was not impossible that the Fifth Prince became ill due to her illness.

However, attacking the nanny would be the dumbest method and it would easily leave marks on her body. The imperial physician could tell the nanny's physical condition and condition in just a few minutes.

But the nanny and the servants were all there to serve the princes and princesses. Under the watchful eyes of so many people, it was not impossible to use other methods, some other methods.

"Yes." The imperial doctors received the order and said. The nurses' bodies were precious, and the food they ate every day was carefully selected, nourishing and nutritious.

Only when the wet nurse is in good health can she produce better milk to feed the princes and princesses.

However, people eat grains and cereals, so it is inevitable that they will get sick for no reason. Therefore, once the princes and princesses fell ill, they would tremble.

They are now like meat on the chopping board. If they are not in good health, the illness of the princes and princesses will inevitably fall on them. At that time, it will be a blessing to be able to save their lives.

However, they had no room for refusal!
They were clearly trembling with fear, but they still had to maintain their composure and wait for the imperial physician to pronounce the death penalty or escape.

After the imperial doctors had taken the patient's pulse, Kangxi, the Empress, and the Grand Empress Dowager were not eager to know the details. The Empress looked at all the servants with kindness and began to ask questions in a virtuous and tolerant manner:

For example: How many times did the Fifth Prince cry? When did he cry? Who was there to serve him? Who can testify? The questions were asked over and over again, using different themes.

The queen also reminded the servants that they must think carefully before speaking and doing things, as it would be bad if they happened to be unwell and had to take the blame for others.

If you make all the fish in a lake move, you will probably get the truth.
