Chapter 390
"Since you are concerned about your mother's health, then go earlier."
Originally, after Kangxi checked the two children's schoolwork, he should have let them go to pay their respects to Ji Nai, but today Kangxi felt sorry for the two children, so he said a few more words.
After his father finished speaking, Chengrui deliberately waited for a while, and found that his father had no intention of getting up, so he bowed and left with some disappointment.
Saiyin Chahun said directly, "Aren't you going, Father?"
"I still have palace affairs to attend to." In fact, this was just an excuse. When Ji Nai lived in Zhongcui Palace before, no matter how busy Kangxi was, he would go to see him from time to time, even if he did not stay overnight.
But now, I am in the back hall of my own Qianqing Palace, just a few steps away, so I can't spare the time for this.
Saiyin Chahun blinked and said, "Rongxian has been looking at the door these past two days."
Kangxi's heart was struck by Saiyinchahun's words, and he felt bitter immediately. Before Kangxi could react, Saiyinchahun's innocent voice sounded again, "When Father is done with his work, does Yinhua still remember what you look like?"
"Sainchahun!" This rascal did it on purpose.
Sai Yincha continued with a fake smile: "But that's okay. Brother Yinhua is brave and never afraid of strangers."
Not afraid of life, not afraid of life, not afraid of life...
These words kept circulating in Kangxi's mind. Although he didn't want to admit it, he was indeed stimulated by Saiyinchahun's words.
"Forget it. I just want to go out for a walk. It's okay to put government affairs aside for the time being." Kangxi said trying to save his dignity.
Chengrui was delighted to see that his father was willing to go with them to see their mother, but he also admired his brother's wit. He couldn't say such words, and he thought that just a few words could change his father's mind.
The moment the father and his two sons stepped into the back hall together, Chengrui and Saiyinchahun keenly noticed that something was wrong with their father.
They originally thought that Ama was regretting his decision, but when they looked up, they were surprised to see that Ama's face was so dark. Who had offended him?
Saiyinchahun didn't think it was his fault. He had always been like this. If his father was really angry, he would never have endured it until now and would have spanked him long ago.
Kangxi smelled the faint fragrance in the hall and immediately wanted to drag that dog slave Liang Jiugong out and beat him up. Was this how he did what he ordered?
Liang Jiugong also noticed the burning spices and swallowed. If he told His Majesty now that he had asked Yuqing not to burn the spices, would His Majesty still believe him?
However, this was also his own fault. He did not take the spices back and destroy them. He was indeed careless. It seemed that he could not escape the punishment this time.
"Your Highness." Ji Nai came up to greet him with a smile, just like before, but his face was a little pale, and he could not hide his fatigue.
Kangxi grabbed Ji Nai's wrist to stop her from continuing to salute. He held her tightly and stared at her without blinking.
"Is the medicine from the Imperial Hospital not working? Why do you still look so ugly?"
In the past few days, Kangxi has been subconsciously avoiding Ji Nai, always using government affairs as an excuse, although he himself doesn't know what he is afraid of. Obviously, the misunderstanding has been resolved, right? Ji Nai can also understand himself and does not resent him.
If Kangxi had known that Ji Nai's health had not improved, he would not have deliberately avoided him. In his heart, he blamed his two sons for not being able to speak up. They came to pay their respects to him and Ji Nai every day, so why didn't they mention it?
And the Imperial Hospital and Liang Jiugong, they were doing their jobs better and better. Obviously, Ji Nai's condition was not good, but they dared to lie to me and said, "Everything is fine."
Just look at Ji Nai's complexion and his obviously slimmer waist, how good can this be?
Ji Nai sensed Kangxi's suppressed anger and soothed him, "It takes time for an illness to heal. After taking the medicine prescribed by the Imperial Hospital, I feel much better."
"Then why do you still look unhappy?"
Ji Nai paused, then continued with a smile, "It's not fully healed yet."
Kangxi noticed that Ji Nai's expression was strange, but he didn't want to continue asking in front of the child, "Where is Rongxian?" As he asked, he took Ji Nai's hand and walked inside.
Then, Kangxi saw three children lying in a row on the couch.
Kangxi went over and picked up Rongxian, completely unaware that Ji Nai, Cheng Rui, and Sai Yinchahun had changed their expressions.
"Snapped!"
"What's that sound?" Kangxi asked puzzledly.
"Yinhua! You hit your brother again, and he is so far away from you!" Ji Nai grabbed Yinhua's hand and taught the child a lesson with a serious face.
As for Yinhua, after beating Yinreng, he tilted his head and started pretending to be dead.
Ji Nai laughed angrily, "Mother told me before that if you hit your brother again, I will wrap your hands." As he said that, he began to instruct the wet nurse beside him.
The nanny hesitated and dared not step forward, her eyes kept glancing at Kangxi, "Master, the prince is still young, why don't you just forget it."
"No, I've already given him a chance."
The wet nurses had no choice but to obey the orders, praying in their hearts: These are all the master's orders, please don't blame them, His Majesty.
In fact, the wet nurses were worrying over nothing. When Ji Nai was teaching the children a lesson, Kangxi never interfered, especially when the person being taught a lesson was Saiyin Chahun.
"What happened?" Kangxi asked curiously.
Seeing that Kangxi was not angry, Ji Nai breathed a sigh of relief, then picked up Yinreng, who was crying loudly, with a guilty conscience and touched his red cheeks.
I swear to God, she really didn't treat Yinreng harshly, and she never thought of using the child to hurt Yinreng. Even though he was Hesheli's child, at least so far, there has been no direct conflict between Yinreng and Zhongcui Palace.
Moreover, Yinreng was raised by me for a period of time in my previous life, and in this life, he was held by me as soon as he was born. It is impossible that I have no feelings for him.
"Your Majesty, it's not like you don't know that Yinhua has a domineering personality and he can't change his habit of occupying territory."
"But wasn't Rongxian next to him just now?" Rongxian was between Yinhua and Yinreng just now, and the three children were very harmonious.
But as soon as he picked up Rongxian, Yinhua started to attack, even though there was still room for another person between the two children.
Kangxi had no intention of questioning, he was just purely curious, but when he said this, the servants in Zhongcui Palace still changed their expressions.
Although Prince Yinreng was raised by his master, he is still the Empress's child after all. Your Majesty would not misunderstand that they are mistreating their own legitimate son harshly, right?
"Maybe, it's because in Yinhua's eyes, Rongxian is an insider? Anyway, I, Chengrui and Saiyinchahun have never been beaten, only..." Ji Nai was too embarrassed to say anything. If she continued, it would seem as if she did it on purpose.
