[Quick Wear] Puhua Fairy is blessed with a long pregnancy

Imperial Concubine Tong seemed not to have heard it. She stared blankly at the handkerchief and murmured: "Empress, can I still be the Empress..."

What queen? Perhaps, she was already dead when Concubine Xi became the queen.

Perhaps, she can also become the queen, and be conferred the title posthumously. I think His Majesty will not be stingy.

Yue Xin could no longer hold back her tears. Her master's obsession for so many years was to become the Queen. After Queen Xiao Zhaoren passed away, her master thought that she would be able to become the Queen soon. But no, there was no movement from the Emperor.

The master has been ill for so many years, and it is not because of this reason. Now there is a Xi Royal Concubine who is on an equal footing with the master! How can the master not be angry?

"Master, the concubines from all the palaces have arrived and are waiting outside to pay their respects."

At this moment, another personal maid walked in.

The Imperial Concubine put away her sad expression and stood up: "Change your clothes."

Today is neither the first nor the fifteenth day of the lunar month, so there is no need to pay respects. These people coming here now obviously have bad intentions. Imperial Noble Concubine Tong knows this, so she is even more unwilling to show her vulnerability among the concubines.

-

"Your humble concubine/your concubine pays respect to Her Majesty Imperial Concubine Tong. May Her Majesty Imperial Concubine Tong live in peace and happiness."

Imperial Noble Consort Tong sat at the head of the table. She was bright and beautiful, dignified and graceful. When she heard the palace concubines add "Tong" before her title of Imperial Noble Consort, her eyebrows darkened slightly, and she quickly said calmly:

"Get up."

"Thank you, Imperial Noble Consort Tong."

After everyone was seated, Imperial Concubine Tong asked, "Why are you all here, sisters? Isn't today a day for greetings?"

Concubine Hui smiled and said, "Madam Imperial Noble Concubine Tong, there is a new Imperial Noble Concubine in the harem. I am here to ask you when we can meet her."

The Imperial Concubine's expression remained unchanged: "Didn't His Majesty say that Imperial Concubine Xi is weak, so please don't disturb her rest."

She waved her hand: "Is there anything else? If not, please go down."

Imperial Noble Concubine Tong continued to drive people away. Seeing that she looked unhappy, the other concubines did not dare to intervene, fearing that she would ignore the matter and vent her anger on them, so they quickly stood up and left.

After everyone went back, they kept waiting, waiting to see whether Imperial Noble Consort Tong would make a move on the person in Jingren Palace. Everyone was waiting to watch the show and also waiting for the person in Jingren Palace to counterattack. It was a pity that the two of them never fought each other. Imperial Noble Consort Xi had never even left Jingren Palace, let alone fight for the palace power.

De Fei sighed to Fang Lu in private with regret: "Both Royal Concubines are smart people."

She thought that while the two sides were fighting, the fisherman would benefit.

Time flies. Before we know it, time has slipped away from our fingers. Spring has passed and we have entered the hot July.

Sheng Huan’s belly is now four months old, but to the outside world it is still three months.

That day, during another pulse diagnosis, Imperial Doctor Zhang even detected twins' pulse, which made Kangxi extremely happy.

He touched Sheng Huan's belly, cautiously but with a sense of high spirits: "Pan Shu, there are our two children in here!"

Thinking that he was about to welcome two children with his and Pan Shu's blood, he couldn't hide the smile on his lips.

"Yeah." Sheng Huan also touched his belly. He didn't know what he was thinking about, but his drooping eyebrows seemed to show a hint of tenderness.

Seeing this, Kangxi felt very happy and hugged the person tightly.

He couldn't help but kiss the girl's hair, thinking, I don't know when Pan Shu will call him Third Brother...

-

News spread quickly among the concubines in the harem, and Kangxi did not keep it secret, so everyone knew about Sheng Huan's pregnancy.

The concubines in the harem were at a loss. In the past few months, Kangxi only stayed in Jingren Palace. What could they do? Nothing they could do was useful. They could only suppress themselves and say that everything was fine.

Are we going to deal with Consort Xi? This is like throwing an egg against a rock and not knowing whether we can survive!

While Sheng Huan was resting and taking care of her pregnancy, Imperial Noble Concubine Tong's health was deteriorating.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" The Fourth Prince is now eleven years old. Looking at the listless look of Imperial Concubine Tong, he felt a little panicked for some reason.

"I'm fine." Imperial Noble Consort Tong looked at the Fourth Prince and felt sad. Due to her health condition, she was afraid that she would not be able to see the Fourth Prince get married and have children.

"Fourth Prince, how are you getting along with Yue Xing'a?" She touched his head and asked with a smile.

"Very good." The fourth prince pondered and nodded: "Brother Yue Xing is very good."

At least he is simple and innocent, like a white rabbit among a group of princes. He is also stupid but knows when to stop, and has good relationships with others.

Of course, the Fourth Prince knew that Yue Xing'a was the Imperial Concubine's nephew, so he felt closer to him and they naturally got along well.

The Imperial Concubine smiled.

In mid-August, Imperial Noble Consort Tong's body could no longer hold on, and during a visit by palace concubines, she vomited blood and collapsed.

"Imperial Concubine Tong has a weak constitution, and now she has exhausted all her energy. Her pulse is already... like a lamp running out of energy. I'm afraid... she will only live for a few days."

Imperial Noble Concubine Tong was lying on the bed, and even with makeup covering her face, she still looked extremely haggard.

The concubines in the palace were already terrified when they heard the description given by the imperial physician.

The Imperial Concubine also knew that she was dying, and felt her strength slipping away. She struggled to grab Yue Xin and said, "Your Majesty, I want to see you!"

Yue Xin cried desperately: "I've sent someone to invite them. Master, please hold on, hold on!"

Kangxi hurried over after hearing the news.

"Your Majesty..." Imperial Noble Consort Tong grabbed Kangxi's hand, tears streaming down her face.

Kangxi was shocked to see Concubine Tong's haggard appearance. He also knew that she had been taking medicine for the past few years. She didn't want to tell others, so he pretended not to know and just sent the imperial physician to keep a good watch over her. But he didn't expect that in less than a few years, she had come to this point.

"It's okay. I asked the imperial physician to prescribe some medicine. You will be fine..."

Imperial Concubine Tong shook her head weakly: "Your Majesty, I know my body is in such a bad condition. Once I leave, the one who will be most worried is the Fourth Prince..."

Kangxi assured: "You don't have to worry, the fourth prince is a prince, no one can bully him."

“No.” The Imperial Concubine shook her head and held her breath: “Although Concubine De is the Fourth Prince’s biological mother, Your Majesty knows that I had a very ugly quarrel with her back then. I think she resents me in her heart. She has ignored the Fourth Prince in the past few years. I... I am worried...”

"...Your Majesty...please...for the sake of my serving you for so many years, can you please let him be the daughter of Imperial Noble Consort Xi? After all, Imperial Noble Consort Xi was once my...family member, even if...no, it doesn't matter if it's not recorded in the jade disc..."

“Ahem…” Seeing Kangxi’s expression change in an instant and not speaking, Imperial Noble Consort Tong was worried that he would not agree. She became anxious and grabbed his hand tightly, begging him desperately. In the end, she even spat out blood, her face twisted in pain, as if she would not die with her eyes open if he did not agree: “Please… please…”

“…Okay.” When Kangxi saw the deep red blood and her expression, he finally nodded.

Imperial Concubine Tong finally felt relieved and fainted completely.
