The imperial court once again surged in the dark, adding another dragon girl to the harem;

The Sovereign King only favored the heavens and the earth, he would glorify the children before obtaining the dragon heir.

In the month of the first ten years of Kangxi's reign, the short and peaceful imperial court was once again filled with a dark current. The Jingnan King Geng Jimao was suffering from an old illness, which was getting worse and worse. Please allow his eldest son, Ye Fan, to stay loyal and take charge of his military affairs.

In the early Qing Dynasty, for the sake of the stability of the south, the late Shi Zongzongzongzongzong-Emperor had been given the title of King Fan, who had taken up residence in one of the southern regions and had heavy troops. Wu Sangui was given the title of King Pingxi, which was located in the southern region of Yunnan, and was the most powerful of the three, the King of Pingnan, who had been granted the title of King Zhi Shun in Guangdong province for the first time, and then conferred the title of King Pingnan, while the Guzhongzhong-ming was stationed in the Fushan army. The province in which the tribunes were garrisoned was of great power, far more so than the local officials assigned by the local court, and they had control of the local army, taxes, and so on. Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, was the governor of the provinces of Yunand Guizhou. At the same time, it consumed several million taels of silver a year, had no right to inspect its revenues and expenditures, and also monopolized the profits from its residential salt wells and copper mines. Even in private. Lai. La. The envoys were like a small court, completely unaffected by the central court.

This time Geng Jimao turned the tables, the court appeared in the early recess of the voice. Ming Zhu and a few other close officials of the emperor suggested to Xuan Ye that the matter be withdrawn, but this topic was extremely sensitive. The plan to obtain the position of minister had to be considered over a long period of time, but it was a sore point in Xuan Ye's heart as he knew that if the three of them did not leave, the south would not be able to handle it.

On the ninth day of the third month, before the birthday celebration, Dong promised to give birth to a princess, the Emperor bestowed his with a name, and the next day, Rong'er, Yin Ruo Lan, and Zhang Laiqi from the Kunning Palace accompanied the empress to visit the Zong Fu Palace. When they entered the room that Dong Ying was in and saw Yi Feng and Ma Dong agreeing to accompany her in taking care of her, the three of them were basically sealed at the same time, so they were usually rather close.

After saluting each other, the Queen asked with concern, "Are both mother and daughter safe?"

Dong Yong agreed to lie down on the bed. The empress didn't allow him to greet her. Seeing the empress's question, she quickly replied, "Reporting to the empress, the imperial physician says that both mother and daughter are well."

The empress smiled kindly as she instructed softly, "You have to rest well. If Tsukiko doesn't sit well, she'll be sick to her roots." Then, he asked again, "Have Imperial Concubine Zhao and Esteemed Master ever come to visit?"

Dong hurriedly replied, "They came to see chenqie yesterday."

The Emperor had once said that he looked at Dong Ying'er who looked like Rong'er, and Rong'er had observed him closely. In the past, Dong Ying'er had seen him before, when he was still a palace maid, but he had never looked at him closely. Later on, Dong Shi had agreed to see Long Si, and she had only seen him a few times in the morning to greet the empress dowager, but she had never really looked at him face to face. Rong'er sighed helplessly.

As for the two newly-appointed Yi Yeyu and Ma Yeyu, both of them seemed to be above average in terms of looks. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was true. Regardless of whether it was the palace ladies' talent selection or the elites who had chosen to be the masters, they had all chosen to enter the palace. Rong'er didn't know what to think of them; they were her love rivals. Her sister? Or pity them?

After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Yi, Ma and Yi, the empress brought Rong'er and the other two out of the room, leaving the house, the empress stopped her steps and said, "Since we're already at the Zong Palace today, let's go take a look at Cheng Qing, who is taking care of us at Imperial Concubine Zhao. We don't usually take care of him too much."

Rong-er said yes and went with the queen to the main hall of the palace. As soon as they entered, the eunuch at the door shouted, "Esteemed Empress, step down." Known people in the Hall.

Rong'er and a few others followed the empress into the Eastern Warm Pavilion, only to see the Imperial Concubine Zhao and Venerable One already standing there, waiting for the phoenix carriage. After greeting her, Imperial Concubine Zhao opened her mouth first. "Empress, why did you remember to come to the Eastern Pearl area today?"

The empress smiled and said, "I came to see Dong. I came to take a look at Cheng Qing as well."

Cheng Qing was being embraced by a wet nurse standing by the side. The empress hugged him and laughed, "Oh, Cheng Qing looks pretty good, Cheng Qing is younger than him by three months, but he looks taller than me and heavier than me. It seems like the Imperial Concubine Zhao and the rich can take care of the children better than me.

The Imperial Concubine Zhao laughed and said with a bitter face, "My palace is cold and cheerless, it is rare to see your majesty once. Just taking care of Qing'er is our only bit of fun, how can we not take care of him?"

When the empress heard Imperial Concubine Zhao's words, she comforted him, "Little Sister, don't say it like that. Aren't all the women in the imperial harem pretty much the same?"

The empress was benevolent, and had never had any bad feelings towards her. But in this imperial palace, which woman did not wish for the emperor to spoil her? She had been the sole pet of the empress for so long, and if the heavens did not allow Rong'er to have children, then the empress would not be the only one to call on Rong'er. Enough, it was enough, she could not and should not be the sole overlord of the emperors anymore.

At night, as she lay in the emperor's arms and chatted with him, she and the emperor often talked like this, and the emperor loved to talk to her about everything he said. She had always been quietly listening to him as he did all these things for the people, such as the river workers and the prizes for clearing the wasteland, and she was sincerely glad that the emperor was so considerate of the people and felt that there were so many things he should worry about as the emperor.

And tonight Gayon had something to say to the Emperor.

"Your majesty, it's been so long and Rong'er hasn't gotten pregnant. Rong'er can't keep dominating your majesty forever." Gaylen said softly.

"Rong'er, what nonsense are you talking about? I said that we would definitely have a second Rui." Xuan Ye gently caressed the hair on Rong'er's face as he said this.

"The emperor is water, if the water doesn't take care of the other fishes, the fishes will die. The emperor is a tree trunk, if the tree trunk doesn't give the other branches some nourishment, the other golden branches won't be able to survive." Gai Rong'er revealed a mischievous smile and said, "Rong'er can't be so selfish and monopolize this water."

Xuan Ye heaved a heavy sigh and said faintly, "The Hidden Dragon Lake Courtyard avoids chaos. We shall await the return of the storm." Compared to him, Xuan Ye preferred to hide with Rong'er in order to save himself some trouble, but everyone was waiting for him to give them the rain.

Gai Rong'er smiled and answered in a low voice, "It is difficult for the Jun Residence's Hall to leave this world. I look forward to seeing my beloved in this world." Rong'er had also told them the truth that since the emperor was the ruler of the imperial court, it was impossible for him to avoid such troubles. The women in the palace also looked forward to the emperor's favor.

Xuan Ye smiled and helplessly shook his head as he embraced Rong'er. "Rong'er is right. I cannot avoid my responsibilities, be it in the imperial court or the imperial harem."

The world was filled with pitiful people, and those who could be taken advantage of by the heavens were regarded as blissful. Gai Rong'er believed that the heavens were still the kind to her, and accepted her Rui'er, and now let her have the Dragon Sovereign. The emperor had just celebrated his sixteenth birthday, and Rong'er had gotten pregnant, so the emperor and Rong'er were very happy, and of course, the empress dowager was very happy as well. Cheng Rui's early days often caused the old people to blame themselves.
