Yinzhen felt that his fate in this life was very mysterious. He closed his eyes and opened them again. Hey, he was at the Qianqing Palace. He closed his eyes and opened them again. Hey, he was at the Cining Palace!

Although he knew that Khan's father loved Prince Yinreng the most, Yinzhen couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. However, it was also okay, the Empress Dowager would raise him better than Tong Jia.

I just don’t know if my mother will be sad. After all, she really wants to raise me herself.

Shen Jiang wasn't too sad, just a little uncomfortable.

Yonghe Palace seemed to become deserted all of a sudden. When Kangxi came to see her, she was holding the baby prince in a daze, and said with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, I think I heard the baby prince crying."

The emperor sighed and said, "The Empress Dowager will definitely take good care of the little prince, don't worry."

Shen Jiang took the opportunity to say, "I have an unwelcome request. Can you let me go to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager every few days, or... go and see the little prince."

Kangxi suddenly thought of his mother, Empress Xiaokangzhang. When he was young, she had left the palace to avoid smallpox. Did she miss him so much that she cried? Did she cry while holding his swaddling clothes?

He looked away and said, "The Empress Dowager likes quietness, and the main seat in the palace cannot be visited every day. After I ask the Empress Dowager, it won't be too late for you to go and pay your respects."

"Yes, I thank the emperor."

The Empress Dowager did not want to embarrass Shen Jiang on this matter, so she approved Shen Jiang's request. Then, Shen Jiang went to the Cining Palace every three days.

After the Fourth Prince was raised in the Cining Palace, Tong Jia's condition improved, and she was completely recovered by the New Year.

"Could it be that the little prince really killed her?" Tong Jia was very suspicious.

Songge hurriedly stopped her from speaking and said, "Master, please don't mention this in front of the emperor. The little prince is now being raised by the Empress Dowager, who is very old, and the emperor is a very filial person..."

"Okay, I know what to say and what not to say. Don't I understand that?" Tong Jia waved her hand. She would only keep this idea in her heart and certainly would not say it out loud.

Raising someone else's child is not a solution after all. She has to find a way to take care of her body and give birth to a child of her own as soon as possible.

After the New Year, February 28th was the first anniversary of Empress Xiaozhaoren's death, and the Emperor went to Gonghua City to pay tribute.

In comparison, Kangxi had the deepest feelings for Empress Hesheli. Both of them were placed in Gonghua City. From the 13th year of Kangxi to the 16th year of Kangxi, he went to Gonghua City to see Empress Hesheli more than 80 times! However, he went to see Empress Niuhulu only a few times.

After all, they are a young couple, not something that ordinary people can compare to.

Since it was the first anniversary of the Queen's death, the Jingshifang had arranged for the green card to be used.

The first green card Kangxi turned over was naturally Tong Jia, the second was Yipin, the third was Shen Jiang, and the fourth was Yipin's sister Guo Luoluo.

Then, Concubine Yi and Guo Luoluo were both diagnosed with pregnancy.

Kangxi was very happy, and wanted to reward her with something. Concubine Yi was already a concubine who was promoted to the rank of concubine, so he rewarded her with more gold, silver and jewelry. He also raised the quota for Guo Luoluo and promoted her to a noble lady!

The two beauties whom he liked became pregnant, the green card was removed, and Kangxi summoned Shen Jiang more often.

"The Empress Dowager said you are very good," Kangxi said in a good mood, "You can read and write, and you can help the Empress Dowager read. You also know Western clocks. The Empress Dowager praised you very much."

Kangxi liked foreign things, so he gave the Empress Dowager a large Western clock, saying it was for telling time, but no one knew what he was thinking.

Send a clock?!

It was also a coincidence that when the Western clock was delivered, Shen Jiang happened to be in the Cining Palace. No one in the Cining Palace knew how to read it, so Shen Jiang showed off his skills and quickly converted the time on the clock into hours, and even taught an old eunuch in the palace.

The Empress Dowager told Kangxi about this, and Kangxi became more curious about Shen Jiang. Although she was born into a bondservant family, she had received education and could even understand Western clocks. It was a pity that such a capable and talented woman had to be confined to the rank of a noble lady.

"I have decided to make you a concubine."

Shen Jiang felt like she was hit by a pie in the sky. She didn't work hard, but she was made a concubine?

In May, Kangxi issued an edict to promote Uya to the position of concubine. After the Imperial Astronomical Observatory selected an auspicious day, the enthronement ceremony was scheduled for October 13th.

System: "You are the master now. Ask Lao Kang if he can bring the Fourth Prince back."

Shen Jiang: "If I make this request now, it would be like my head is hit by the door! Think about it, why was I made a concubine? It was because I pleased the Empress Dowager! Oh, I was made a concubine because of the Empress Dowager, and now I am trying to snatch her child. Then I will never have a foothold in the harem again. I'd better crawl into the cold palace and wait for death!"

System: "That's true. It's also good for the Empress Dowager to raise the Fourth Prince. After all, you will be having your second child soon, which will distract you."

Shen Jiang was dumbfounded: "What do you mean?"

System: "Well, you are pregnant, and the pregnancy has just started."

It was only half a year since Shen Jiang's first child was born! She had been conditioning her body for the past six months, and she did not ovulate or have her period!

Shen Jiang's expression was very ugly: "Did you do anything?"

The system hesitated: "Actually, on the timeline, this time is about the same..."

"Do you know how much damage continuous childbirth in a short period of time can cause to a woman? Do you really think you can control all this? Body shape change, urinary incontinence, uterine prolapse! Your mechanism is not omnipotent. Have you ever considered what dangers I will face if you fail?"

System: "Host, I'm sorry. I won't do this again."

Shen Jiang suppressed his anger and said slowly: "This is the first time, and I hope it will be the last time."

System: “I promise!”

Although Shen Jiang was angry, it was of no use. The child was already conceived and she couldn't abort it.

Moreover, the system has detected that this baby is a boy, which means that this baby is the Sixth Prince who died young. Shen Jiang just wants the Sixth Prince to grow up safely.

At the end of June, the imperial physician diagnosed that Shen Jiang was pregnant.

There were suddenly three more pregnant concubines in the harem. Kangxi immediately told the good news to the Empress Dowager, who smiled and said, "More sons, more blessings! More sons, more blessings!" She also said to the Fourth Prince in the stroller, "You will have brothers and sisters now."

Yinzhen was not very happy. He knew he was a younger brother, but this younger brother would never grow up.

He still had a deep memory of his sixth brother's death, so he could not forget how sad his mother cried at that time. This time, he hoped that he could protect his sixth brother and that his mother would not be sad anymore.

In Jingren Palace, Tong Jia also heard the news that Uya was pregnant. Although it was a very hot day, she felt her hands and feet were cold.

"Songge, Concubine Yi is pregnant, her sister is pregnant, and now even Uyama is pregnant, why am I the only one who has no news? Songge, go and ask the imperial physician, maybe the time is too young and the imperial physician has not diagnosed it, go quickly!"

Songge looked at her, swallowed his words of persuasion, and said, "Yes, I will go and ask the imperial physician."

As soon as Songge left, Tong Jia's tears rolled down. She knew that no matter how many times the imperial physician came, he would not be able to diagnose the disease.
