The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 404: Prince Gong's eldest daughter is brought up in the palace

Qin Rou thought about it for a moment, then let it go.

Who cares! If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up, so it won't fall on her head. Qinrou waited in Zhenshunzhai with peace of mind, waiting for the final news from Qianxi Wusuo.

The palace was also in complete silence because of the Second Princess's minor illness. The concubines did not want to stir up trouble, and the moment they received the news, even if they were visiting other palaces, they hurried back to their own palaces.

Under the high pressure of the imperial power, if the emperor and the empress were in a bad mood, everyone in the harem would be in danger. Even if they were just in a bad mood and were swept away by the typhoon, no one would bet on this inevitable bad ending. Even the best gamblers would not bet knowing the result and insist on betting.

The concubines waited in their respective palaces for two hours, feeling restless and anxious. They were afraid that bad news would come at the next moment, but they were also secretly disappointed and worried that the bad news would not happen.

People's hearts are complicated, sometimes they themselves don't know whether they are hoping that the worst news will not happen, or hoping that the palace and the second princess are safe. They themselves can't tell!
Qin Rou was worried, but she knew clearly that the development of the incident was beyond her control. Since it was beyond human control, it was impossible for her to care about it. Maybe her heart was too hard! She had pity, but she knew that the child would not survive. After surviving this disaster, he would still have to face future disasters.

A sad life, lived a short and sad life in the world, and finally faced the final and pre-written ending. Although he knew the predetermined ending, he was powerless to change it. It was difficult for Qinrou to empathize with such a sad thing.

Fu Shun had been keeping an eye on what was happening in the Qianxi Wusuo. As soon as he received the news, he walked in with a smile on his face and reported, "The Empress and Consort Niuhulu have returned to the palace from the Qianxi Wusuo."

His joyful voice was heard long ago.

He should be happy. Since the Empress and Consort Niuhulu have both come out of Qianxi Wusuo, this disaster means that Ergege has almost survived. If there are no more problems later!
The second princess's life was safe, so of course she didn't have to worry about the emperor's anger. And these small shrimps didn't have to be terrified, fearing that a disaster was about to happen.

As for Kangxi, Princess Gulun Xingping and Princess Gulun Shuhui, they really went to see him and consulted the imperial physician. They stayed for less than half an hour, but a little more than a quarter of an hour before they left.

Less than half an hour ago, Kangxi also walked out of the gate of Qianxi Wusuo.

At this time, the concubines in the harem had not yet put their minds at ease. Emperor Kangxi was both an emperor and a father. With such a dual identity, as an emperor, he was busy with government affairs and would not lack heirs. He might not care about the safety of the second princess or the other princess.

As a father, he was more likely to have the instinct to avoid the worst outcome. It was obvious that he would choose the latter, which would bring more grief, watching his child die in person or having the palace servants report his death.

Qin Rou was also relieved when she heard this. Sometimes, the actions of the Empress and Concubine Niuhulu were a kind of blatant weather vane in the palace. In this regard, Emperor Kangxi's actions might not be as good as this. Don't speculate on an emperor who holds great power.

Power is a dark thing. The feeling that one can kill millions of people with a single word or overturn the world with a wave of the hand will confuse people's minds, corrupt their hearts, and change them unconsciously.

In the end, he will not recognize any of his relatives.

When it comes to love and the emperor, one must be cautious. However, what the Empress and Consort Niuhulu show is more objective and closer to the real reality.

The attitudes of the Queen and Concubine Niuhulu represent the safety of the Second Princess. After realizing this, Qin Rou asked, "What's wrong with the Second Princess?"

Everyone gets sick, not to mention babies, Qin Rou doesn't deny that. But there has to be an explanation for what the illness is!
"The second princess is not feeling well and has a stomachache! She is crying a lot, which is a normal symptom, but for some reason, she has a low-grade fever." The second princess is so young, so will she be in trouble soon? Fushun reported.

"The fever has gone, and the stomachache doesn't occur anymore. She should have recovered earlier, but the Empress Dowager and Concubine Niuhulu were worried, so they stayed in the palace to take care of her for a while longer. Although the Empress Dowager and Concubine Niuhulu have come out now, they still told the imperial physician to stay with the Second Princess! They were worried that the Second Princess would have a relapse, so they saved the time to invite the imperial physician." Fushun gave the details.

There are only two heirs in the palace, and the second princess is also precious, especially at this time of year. How could Fushun not find out more about it?

Qin Rou was relieved. It was fine as long as the second princess was fine. Anyway, it had nothing to do with her. After thinking about it, another question came to her mind. Qin Rou frowned and asked, "Where is Concubine Dong?"

I haven't heard Fushun mention Concubine Dong. Concubine Dong is also inconspicuous. With the Empress and Concubine Niuhulu in the front to suppress her, it is easy to ignore Concubine Dong. After all, concubines are really not very prominent.

Fu Shun also found out everything. If the concubine didn't ask, he would mention it so that the concubine would know the answer. If the concubine asked, he would answer in detail!
"Concubine Dong is still taking care of the Second Lady in her room. The Empress is kind-hearted and is worried about the Second Lady! She thinks that Concubine Dong is the Second Lady's biological mother; secondly, even if Concubine Dong goes back, she will still be worried about the Second Lady in the bedroom. The Empress told Concubine Dong not to leave, but to take care of the Second Lady in her room first, and to be on the lookout for any problems. In order to avoid delays!" So she is still in the Qianxi Wusuo.

In the left and right Qianxi Wusuo Village, there is only one second-class lady living there now.

Qin Rou nodded. I thought that was the end of the matter today. Even if there was something else, it would be Er Gege's business. Unexpectedly, one problem arose before another. Soon, an imperial decree was issued:

There have been many twists and turns for the royal heirs in the palace. Hearing about the ability of elder sisters in the folks to protect their younger siblings, the imperial edict ordered that the eldest daughter of Prince Heshuo Gong be adopted into the palace to be raised, so as to bring more blessings and longevity to the royal heirs in the palace!
Qin Rou was surprised. She was surprised more than once. If exclamation marks could be seen, then they would definitely be seen. The exclamation mark on her head was raised three times, and each time it was raised higher than the last time. This meant that she was more and more surprised.

It took a long time to come back to his senses. The eldest daughter of Prince Gong's mansion is the adopted daughter of Emperor Kangxi. Yes! But Qin Rou couldn't help but sigh, the palace's operations are really one after another! There is nothing that can't be done in the palace, only what you can't think of.

If you really believe in these unrealistic things, even if Kangxi let the biological mother of the emperor raise the emperor by herself, the mortality rate of the emperor's heirs would not be so high.

Is it because of the people's inability? It's because the road is uneven!
Really, Qin Rou was speechless for a moment. How could Kangxi suddenly issue such an order? Was it a spur of the moment decision, or was it premeditated? There was a huge difference between the two.

Qin Rou thought that there might be something wrong.

There is no imperial decree without reason!
