Rong Fei is not honored

Chapter 499 Mixed truth and falsehood

"Your Majesty, I do not wish to hurt you, even if the harm has already been done, I do not wish to lie to you again.

Maybe you think I'm ridiculous, but this is the truth.

I love you, but I dare not give you my whole heart. If you are unwilling to forgive me, I have no complaints."

"Just for this child? In order to give me no reason to harm this child, you no longer want my feelings, nor do you want Chengrui and their futures."

Even though he had given him many chances, Ji Nai insisted on doing so just to break up with him.

She knew clearly that after today, Zhongcui Palace would become a cold palace, and the former and harems were not short of people who could adapt to the situation. In this way, he, the suspicious emperor, no longer needed to doubt that Zhongcui Palace was too powerful.

Or maybe, Ji Nai was simply certain of his true feelings for her and that Kangxi would not let Ji Nai get hurt for the sake of the child. She made such a fuss today just to make Kangxi take back his feelings in order to save the child.

"Okay." Kangxi squeezed out a word from between his teeth.

"Ma Jiajinai, remember what I said today. You have hurt my heart. From today on, I will treat you no differently than anyone else. You are just one of the many concubines in my harem."

"Yes."

Kangxi turned and left. He was afraid that if he continued to stay there, he would have to bow his head and give up his imperial dignity. However, this was clearly Ji Nai's choice.

Kangxi left, and before leaving, he did not forget to take away all of his and Ji Nai's children, including Chengrui, who looked worried and wanted to say something but hesitated, and Saiyin Chahun, who struggled desperately and refused to leave.

Even Rongxian, Yinhua and Yinfu were taken away by Kangxi.

This heartless woman, isn't she afraid that after offending the emperor, she will vent her anger on the children? She is so careless about the child in her belly that she doesn't even care about Chengrui and the others.

In that case, why leave the children behind to be despised?

Kangxi left resolutely without even looking back, so naturally he did not see Ji Nai fall down.

Ji Nai's heart disease recurred, or rather, she was suffering from the torture brought by her heart disease while performing this drama in front of Kangxi.

Ji Nai drank a few mouthfuls of spiritual liquid before he could barely suppress the pain in his heart. After dealing with Nanny Li and Yu Qing who came in to check on the situation, Ji Nai no longer had any strength left and fell into the soft brocade quilt.

What was covered was not only Ji Nai's figure, but also her tears.

"Why are you doing this?" He had to commit suicide.

"Yuan Xu, I don't trust him. No matter how deep our feelings are, they can't surpass the country and the throne. I'm afraid that one day, he will be unable to suppress his suspicions and take action.

When that day comes, perhaps he will be reluctant to kill me, but what about my children?

In his previous life, Yinreng was born to him by his first wife who risked her life for him, and he raised him single-handedly. At that time, Yinreng was so envied by his brothers, but what happened later?

He was used as a pawn by Kangxi, and several times he became a laughing stock."

Yuan Xu wanted to say no, Kangxi had already changed, and perhaps others would still be different, but it was different for Ji Nai’s children.

But Yuan Xu knew that Ji Nai was heartbroken, and once trust was destroyed, it would be difficult to rebuild it.

Perhaps for Kangxi, what happened back then was just a temporary mistake and was remedied afterwards, but for Ji Nai, it was an indelible harm.

But Ji Nai, since you know very well that he is an emperor, how dare you vent all the words in your heart today? Are you really not afraid of the emperor's wrath?

It was just that the favored one was fearless. Even though Ji Nai knew everything in her heart, Kangxi's favor still made her feel that she had someone to rely on without realizing it.

She dared to make such a scene because she was confident in her heart that Kangxi would never do anything to her.

Just like Nara at the beginning, the only difference is that what Nara got was a false dream specially woven for her, while Ji Nai got the real thing and got the true heart of Kangxi.

But, after today, can this sincerity still exist?

"What? Do you think I'm crazy?" Ji Nai's dull voice came out from under the quilt.

"I just don't understand what's wrong with you today? Even if you're really worried that Kangxi will hurt the child, you can think of other ways.

Aren't you afraid that he will get really angry and attack Yinzhi directly?"

"He will not!"

"But didn't you say..." Yuan Xu frowned, then seemed to have thought of something and shouted in disbelief, "Are you making this up?"

Yes, even if Kangxi was suspicious of Zhong Cui Palace, why would he take action against a child whose gender was not yet known? If it really came to that, would the cold-blooded emperor be reluctant to take action just because other children had already been born?

"It's just taking advantage of the situation."

"But I see that your emotions are so genuine..."

"It's half true and half false. If not, how could we deceive Kangxi? There are people hiding in the dark."

"I don't know."

"You should go to the Cining Palace and take a look, Yuan Xu. Our biggest enemy has always been the Empress Dowager." Not Kangxi.

Ji Nai was tired. As she said herself, she didn't want to hurt Kangxi, but the damage had been done and her heart was not without pain.

But between the child and Kangxi, her choice will always be the child.

......

"I said, my cousin is so wise and brave, there is no way he could be deceived by that bitch Ma Jia." Tong Jia said gritting her teeth.

Nanny Tong advised: "Master..." Let's just be quiet.

It's not that she wants to boost others' morale and destroy her own prestige, but it's because Tong Ma has been in the palace for many years and is very clear about the Empress Dowager's methods.

In fact, today's incident is not big or small. If His Majesty and the Empress Dowager do not care about it, it means that the master was instigated by Concubine Zhaojia and others and spoke out of turn.

But if we really investigate it, it turns out that he was intentionally trying to stimulate Rong Fei's pregnancy and target the princes in Zhongcui Palace.

Although the main reason was that Rong Fei herself was incompetent and was frightened by a single sentence, her master was not without fault either, and her words and deeds could easily be interpreted by those with ulterior motives as being deep-minded and having great intentions.

Outsiders would not think that their master was innocent. They would only think that Tong Jia of Chengqian Palace was really capable and could depose the favored Rong Fei, who had a son, with just one sentence.

Alas, by then everyone in the palace will be on guard, and the master will have to fight alone, and it will be difficult to find reliable allies.

It can only be said that because of regret and guilt, Nanny Tong turned on a very strong filter for the Tong family princesses who were 90% similar to her old master.

Even though he knew that it was his own master who was the first to tease and try to harm Rong Fei and Hui Fei by using a torture method, he still felt that it was all other people's fault.

"What are you afraid of, Ma'am? My cousin will always protect me." Tong Jia had no idea what Ma'am was worried about, but even if she knew, she wouldn't take it seriously.

"Your Majesty is naturally protecting you. The fact that he hasn't reprimanded you so far shows that even when Concubine Rong nearly had a miscarriage, he never blamed you.

But... I am worried about the Empress Dowager."

When she heard the first sentence, Tong Jia was still a little complacent, but after Tong Ma mentioned the Empress Dowager, Tong Jia's face turned green.

She will never forget that she was lying "weakly" on the bed, and instead of waiting for her cousin to seek justice for her, she was met with the Empress Dowager and that bitch Nianhulu.

They dismissed the palace maids from Chengqian Palace and entered the inner room as if they were alone, without taking themselves seriously at all.

They looked so superior, their eyes full of disgust and disdain for me, as if... as if in their eyes, I was just a clown.

It was obvious that the Empress Dowager and Nianhulu did not say anything, but Tong Jia felt her cheeks burning.

Especially after the imperial physician brought by the Empress Dowager diagnosed that she was not seriously injured, she felt that all the palace people around her looked at her strangely.

"Your concubine...I am really not feeling well." Tong Jia defended herself in a low voice.

"You are from the Tong family. Because of your aunt's face, I can't say much. However, I will inform the emperor of this matter in detail and let him deal with it."

After saying that, the Grand Empress Dowager turned around and left with Nianhulu and the Empress Dowager who had been pretending to be a quail. She didn't want to waste any time talking to Tong Jia at all.
