Chapter 205: Nanny Wu's Master

Concubine Hui was overwhelmed by great panic and regret, "Quick! Quick! Call the imperial physician!"

Seeing her master looking pale, holding her stomach and crying in pain, Nanny Wu had a bad feeling and quickly ran to call for help.

Cui Xin, who had always been low-key and inconspicuous, stopped pretending to be stubborn at this time. She stepped forward to support her master, comforted Concubine Hui in a gentle voice, and helped her adjust her sitting position so that Concubine Hui could be more comfortable.

When Concubine Hui's condition got better, Cui Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but murmur, "Mammy, too. Since you know that the master can't stand the queen, you still bring it up again and again. Isn't this deliberately making the master sad?"

The words were said unintentionally, but heard with intent. Although Concubine Hui was worried about the baby in her belly at the moment, she still let the words enter her ears and leave a mark in her heart.

Fortunately, in the end it was just a close call. The imperial physician prescribed pregnancy-preserving medicine for Concubine Hui and told her not to let her emotions fluctuate too much and to calm down before leaving.

After hearing about the incident in the Yanxi Palace, Kangxi, who was originally heading to the Zhongcui Palace, changed his direction. He felt guilty towards Nara, and besides, she was pregnant with his child, so Kangxi couldn't just ignore it at this time.

Listening to Nanny Wu's report on Nara's situation, Kangxi wondered in his heart whether he should postpone his plan or at least wait for Nara to give birth to the child.

After realizing something was wrong, Nara, who had been silently observing Nanny Wu, closed her eyes. How blind she was before that she could not see that Nanny Wu's real master was someone else.

If Concubine Hui had been like she always was, she would have shouted this matter out loud and questioned Kangxi without hesitation, asking him why he treated her like this.

Was it just to deal with the Queen? Thinking about it carefully, ever since Nanny Wu came to his side, she had been trying to sow discord between him and the Queen. Although the conflict between the two was already huge, Nanny Wu definitely played a catalytic role.

If that was the case, why didn't His Majesty tell me directly? As long as he told me, I would definitely help suppress the Queen. Why would he have to go to such great lengths to instigate her?

However, before she realized the truth, Concubine Hui had already learned a painful lesson from going against the Queen—Chengqing died. Perhaps because of this, His Majesty was afraid to speak out, and he did not dare to confront the Queen?

Concubine Hui still had some illusions about Kangxi in her heart. She was unwilling and dared not to think of the worst.

However, Concubine Hui was not a fool after all. After regaining her sanity, she regained her initial vigilance. She subconsciously concealed the truth she had discovered and no longer believed in Kangxi wholeheartedly.

Perhaps, it was Chengqing's death that made her realize that the man in front of her was not only her husband and the father of her children, but also an emperor.

He does love himself and Chengqing, but he will not seek justice for Chengqing's death regardless of the consequences. It is not advisable to be impulsive, but the choice after weighing the pros and cons is even more chilling.

After Kangxi left, Concubine Hui stared blankly at his departing figure, feeling that everything seemed so unreal. What was real in this harem?

"Master?" Nanny Wu noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with Concubine Hui today. Seeing her staring at the emperor's back, she felt a little uneasy and reluctant.

"Mammy, I'm going to ask you a question. You must answer it truthfully."

"Yes."

"Do you think the Queen deserves to die?"

Concubine Hui’s idea was very simple. Since Nanny Wu was His Majesty’s person, then her opinion was His Majesty’s opinion.

"My Lord, can you say this? If anyone knows, it will be a capital crime."

Concubine Hui said indifferently: "There are no outsiders here. If anyone knows, it must be someone among you who informed on me. Don't worry, if I can't survive by then, I will definitely take yours with me, and your nine clans as well."

Concubine Hui's words shocked everyone. Oh my God, has the master gone crazy because she is too sad about the death of the prince?

"So, Mammy, do you think the queen deserves to die?"

Concubine Hui refused to give in. Nanny Wu saw that she would not give up until she got an answer, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "The queen has sinned deeply, and she should have atoned for our prince's sins."

Although this was not stated explicitly, it clearly expressed the meaning that the queen deserved to die.

The palace maids standing by were almost numb. It was all over. Not only had the master gone crazy, but even Madam Wu had gone crazy as well!

"If it's for atonement, she shouldn't be allowed to die so easily."

Nanny Wu's expression froze. What did Concubine Hui mean by this?

"Death is nothing. Sometimes, living requires courage. Mammy, she killed my Chengqing, so she should also have a taste of this heart-breaking pain."

Chenghu doesn’t live long anyway, right?

"Master, please don't do anything stupid!" When Nanny Wu heard that Concubine Hui was going to attack Prince Chenghu, she was so scared that her heart almost jumped out. If Prince Chenghu really got into trouble, His Majesty would not let her go.

"It is a capital crime to murder the heir to the throne. Can you bear to leave the little prince alone?"

Nanny Wu tried to persuade her, but she didn't know that her words would only make Concubine Hui more determined to take revenge.

"Madame Wu, what do you mean by this? Are you sure I'm going to die?"

Nanny Wu didn't understand what Concubine Hui was talking about. Murdering the royal heir was a capital crime, not to mention that Concubine Hui wanted to attack the Empress's legitimate son. Once she did it, there would be no way for him to survive.

"You said that murdering the heir to the throne is a capital crime, but what about the queen? Why is she still alive? How many children has she killed? How many sins are on her hands? I'm afraid she herself can't explain it clearly!

But she is still alive and well. Not only is she alive, she is still able to rule the country and be her queen peacefully. So why can't I?"

Nanny Wu saw that Concubine Hui seemed to be determined, so she didn't dare to brush it off any longer and could only explain the pros and cons of the matter to Concubine Hui.

"Master!" Nanny Wu said seriously, "Master, do you think that since you are favored by His Majesty, he will definitely protect you? But the emperor's protection should never be taken seriously. With the pressure from the former court and the harem, can His Majesty really withstand it?

Even if he is willing to protect it now, what about in the future? It is normal for people in this palace to have ups and downs. If in the future... then what you did today is like handing someone else a knife and axe. "

Besides, His Majesty doesn't really like Concubine Hui, and I'm afraid he is unwilling to protect her.

"It's fine for the previous dynasty, but shouldn't everyone in the harem be happy? Happy that I've eliminated the queen's support?"

After all, apart from wanting to overthrow the mountain above her head, the queen had offended so many people, and no one would not want to avenge the murder of their son.
