The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 441: People who have someone to rely on have temper

"Who isn't pregnant?" Concubine Li pulled a face, holding her waist with one hand and stroking her belly, which was already visibly pregnant but still small, with the other hand, pretending to remind everyone that she still had a belly. She was so sour! She was full of resentment and indignation.

I guess I feel very aggrieved. They are both pregnant, but the treatment is so different, it is inevitable that they feel unfair. As the saying goes, people are most afraid of comparison.

Without comparison, how can there be harm? The person who feels hurt will always feel unfair. This is the situation of Concubine Li.

The Queen's partiality was so obvious. She was also pregnant and had just come from a pregnant period. How could she deserve such treatment?

Concubine Li was dissatisfied with the partial treatment given to her by the Empress and Emperor Kangxi; if she thought more deeply and carefully, she was dissatisfied with the Empress and the Emperor. Of course, Concubine Li may not have considered this, but it did not prevent others from not considering this.

As soon as she said this, Concubine Nimacha took over the conversation.

"Oh! This is really different." Nimacha Concubine is quick-witted, knows how to look, and knows how to share the master's worries. The master's wife is also the master, right? In just a moment, everyone realized that the palace was already her home court, and others could not catch up with regret.

Concubine Nimacha wanted to laugh. How could the biological mother of the heir, who was born as a concubine of the Manchu army flag, be compared with the biological mother of the concubine of the Han army flag? This was a well-known fact, and Concubine Nimacha wanted to say that Concubine Xiao Li had no idea!
That's the truth. Concubine Nimacha is sensible and won't say it directly. Isn't that too blatant? What if it brings trouble to herself? Concubine Nimacha said jokingly: "I'm not pregnant!"

She was looking forward to having a baby, but unfortunately she didn't have the blessing. The same thing happened to Concubine Li. She probably spent the rest of her life with such good fortune that she would have the chance to have a royal heir. There would be no more.

Therefore, Nima Cha Shufei was not afraid of her. The baby in her belly might not be born. With such a stupid mother, she was in danger! Not to mention that it would be safe and secure after the birth.
Therefore, she knew that Concubine Li did not mean that, and she was jealous. She was dissatisfied with the inferior treatment she received for being pregnant, and the obvious partiality of the empress and the emperor. But Concubine Nimacha only understood it superficially and took it literally.

Dare to talk back to her!

If it was Qinrou, or Concubine Majia, Concubine Yehenala, or even Concubine Li today, Concubine Nimacha would also choose to keep her mouth shut, being cautious and afraid of offending others.

What Concubine Nimacha can figure out, others can also figure out. She just took the initiative. Now that the initiative is taken by her, and others don’t mention it, the concubines must be so upset!
The reaction was too slow, otherwise how could the concubine Nima Cha show up?

It’s impossible for everyone to have a child, let alone a royal heir?
How many women in the world have never had a child to take care of them? Not to mention the royal heir. In the deep palace, how many concubines are lucky enough to get pregnant with a royal heir? Give birth to a royal heir? And raise the royal heir.

Little Concubine Li is a fool. She has neither good fortune nor ability. The fact that the dragon fetus can stay in her belly for a while is probably her greatest blessing.

The concubines would be a little afraid of her because of the dragon fetus in her belly! But they really wouldn't be afraid of her from the bottom of their hearts, let alone fighting for their mistress. Little concubine Li was obviously dissatisfied with the queen's partiality; even worse, she was dissatisfied with the emperor. The queen didn't mention it, so did she really not care?

They also wanted to say a few words to change the atmosphere in the hall.

Concubine Li didn't think so. She didn't give the others a chance to speak.

"Hmph!" Concubine Li was disdainful. She didn't expect that Concubine Nimacha, who usually kept silent, would suddenly interrupt her. She felt a little embarrassed. This was an insult to her. For the sake of the dragon heir in her belly, all the concubines in the palace should respect her. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a disgrace to the dragon fetus in her belly? Concubine Li could never accept this. The royal heir was of utmost nobleness. For the sake of the royal heir, the concubines should step back.

Concubine Li was extremely disdainful of Concubine Nimacha's words. She looked down on her words and also looked down on Concubine Nimacha as a person. Concubine Li was somewhat complacent, "This is the son of the emperor, the most noble and important! Not everyone is worthy of bearing a son of the emperor! Not everyone is blessed to be the mother and son of the emperor." Concubine Li thought that Concubine Nimacha was not favored and was not a person with a deep fortune. She would be a concubine without a name, status, or children for the rest of her life. Their futures were not on the same level. She was destined to have a smooth road, and her mother would be honored by her son! Concubine Li thought, as if she had seen her bright future.

As for the other party, young concubine Li wanted to glance at the other party, who was a person without future and prospects, a person without blessings.

Such was her thought in her heart, and Concubine Li couldn't hide it well, so it showed on her face, and she glanced at Concubine Nima Cha with contempt.

After a round of ridicule, almost all the concubines were taken in.

"The concubines in the harem are all concubines of the emperor. They are blessed with great fortune. The matter of the emperor's heir is just a matter of fate. Once the fate of the heir is there, the prince will come. There is no such thing as worthy or not! Concubine Li, please don't say this again in the future." Concubine Niuhulu glanced at Concubine Li lightly. Her tone was indifferent, but it clearly set the tone.

Little Concubine Li stammered, and the voice of Concubine Nianhulu sounded above her. The volume was not loud and her words were understated, but they made Little Concubine Li feel chilly, dignified and majestic, as if she was the head wife of a wealthy family.

"Yes." Concubine Li was so frightened that she sat up straight, and unconsciously put down her hand that was stroking her waist. Her so-called pride and complacency were not worth mentioning in front of Concubine Niuhulu, so she replied in a low voice.

She was pregnant, and the Queen took good care of her. But compared with Concubine Nara, she was not as considerate as Concubine Nara.

Just like the nanny, the nanny was naturally not very pleasing to the eye, and the queen never mentioned changing her. This was just when Concubine Nala was diagnosed with pregnancy. Last time, although there was a rule in the palace, the emperor's reward was several times more generous. When she was diagnosed with pregnancy, the emperor was also happy, but the reward was not as generous as Concubine Nala's. Not to mention other rewards and gifts from various palaces. In the end, she was not as important as Concubine Nala.

Concubine Li was jealous and aggrieved. She was used to being aggrieved. In the past, she dared not mention such grievances at all, and had to swallow them even if she couldn't. Today, the situation is different! But in front of Concubine Niuhulu's sister, let alone she was just pregnant with the heir, even if she gave birth to a dozen heirs, she would not dare to rebel.

With just one word and one more paragraph, Concubine Li offended almost all the concubines in the palace. Who was unlucky? Even if they really weren't lucky, no one was willing to admit it. There were only a few who didn't care.

Concubine Li's ability to offend people is unique!
The concubines' faces turned ugly, and then suddenly they were very happy. All that mattered was a short sentence. Concubine Li's tail that was soaring to the sky finally fell down.

I feel sour and jealous!

After all, she was pregnant with the dragon fetus, so her position was secure. She also had the Empress looking after her for several months, and the other concubines were tolerant of her, which gave her confidence and allowed her to develop a temper, but not a brain. Relying on the fact that she was pregnant with the dragon heir, her status was extraordinary, and she could no longer tolerate anger.

Only those who are dependent on others have temper! Even if they take their anger out on irrelevant people.

This is the current situation in the palace; every time a woman becomes pregnant with a dragon fetus, her belly becomes more precious, she has someone to rely on, and her temper also rises. She can now speak out about grievances that she dared not to speak out before.

Concubine Li got angry, but unfortunately, her words offended everyone.

Unfortunately, the way Concubine Li expressed her dissatisfaction was too stupid and too obvious. But with the protection of the piece of meat in her belly, she was safe.

"The Emperor and the Empress Dowager both praise Concubine Niuhulu for her noble character. She is a rare virtuous person among the concubines. You should learn from her." The Queen smiled and regained her sense of responsibility with these words.
