Rong Fei is not honored

Chapter 425 Not Pure

But Yuan Xu said that she was influenced by something called estrogen and it was not her own will.

(Yuan Xu: I just don’t want you to blame yourself too much.)

Kangxi's face almost turned black, and he gritted his teeth and explained: "I really am not thinking about that!"

Ji Nai decided to stop while he was ahead. "Okay then, so why did His Majesty look at me like that just now?"

It was not Kangxi's style to hold onto the question and never try to figure it out, so he finally asked:

"The palace was so lively some time ago. Although it was against the rules, I also know that they were jealous.

So, how can my beloved concubine remain indifferent? "

Ji Nai originally planned to just brush it off as she had done before, or to show Kangxi that she was mindful of her status and would not be jealous, as she did not have the qualifications.

But Ji Nai looked at Kangxi's expressionless face, and she always felt that the answer was very important, both to Kangxi and to herself.

Ji Nai thought about it and finally decided to speak his mind.

"Your Majesty will have many women around him. I've known this since the first day I became your concubine.

Also, I still remember what you said to me when you got married to Queen Hesheli.

You said you couldn't have just one woman.

From then on, I knew what was going to happen.

But to be honest, even if I know it clearly, I still can't remain indifferent when I really encounter it.

But I believe that your companionship over the years is enough for me to remember for a lifetime, and it must be different for His Majesty, and I must be different for you too.

With your favor and partiality, I will not be afraid even if there are more women in the palace in the future, and I don’t even need to take them seriously.

With you, Chengrui and the others, I am already very happy."

Kangxi kept staring at Ji Nai, not missing any changes on her face, and could naturally tell that she was serious.

So, it wasn't that he didn't care, but rather that he compromised because he was powerless to change. Kangxi didn't think that Ji Nai was truly content.

Just like himself, at the beginning, Kangxi just wanted to keep Ji Nai by his side, let her stay with him forever and never change.

But later he wanted Ji Nai's heart, wanted Ji Nai to keep him in his heart all the time, and always care about him the most. Even their child should not take away Ji Nai's attention on him.

Now, simple liking can no longer satisfy Kangxi. He wants Ji Nai's love and Ji Nai's complete heart.

Even if Kangxi himself could not do it, he knew that this was unfair to Ji Nai, but he was the emperor and the master of the Qing Dynasty. His absolute power allowed Kangxi to ignore any unfairness.

Kangxi could naturally see that Ji Nai liked him. The love in one's eyes could not be hidden. The occasional happiness and sweetness in Ji Nai's eyes, as well as his subconscious closeness, made Kangxi feel at ease.

But it was precisely because he had felt Ji Nai's love that Kangxi could keenly sense something was wrong at certain times. Even if Kangxi was unwilling to accept it, the fact was -

Ji Nai's love for him was not pure.

After realizing this, Kangxi could no longer suppress his suspicion. He thought: What exactly does Ji Nai want?

Palace power? Position? Or the position of crown prince?

Kangxi began his own several tests. He let her get in touch with power at a very early age, earlier than Hesheli; he used contraceptive incense on her and deliberately controlled the number of children in Zhongcui Palace; he told her that he would make Yinreng the crown prince and that he would soon have a second queen.

But Ji Nai seemed to have no reaction at all. The only thing she cared about was her children, and this concern was limited to their safety and had nothing to do with the Eastern Palace.

Kangxi had not experienced the life that Ji Nai had experienced. Even though he had realized that Ji Nai's "dream" was somewhat magical and knew that she cared very much about the safety of their six children, he would not think that Ji Nai only cared about this.

Who is so stupid as to not ask for anything but just to give birth to their "destined" children and then protect them to grow up safely?

Love and suspicion grew together. The more Kangxi cared about Ji Nai, the more he couldn't stand her reservations, and the more he wanted to find out what she really wanted.

But Kangxi failed again. Ji Nai did have the hope of "drinking from a single scoop of water from the vast expanse of water" that women always dreamed of, but Kangxi could also see that this was not Ji Nai's concern.

A feeling of cruelty arose in Kangxi's heart, making him want to crush the person in front of him into pieces and stuff her into his body, so that Ji Nai would belong to him completely.

But seeing the confusion and hidden caution in Ji Nai's eyes, Kangxi closed his eyes.

What is he doing?

Except for not fulfilling his own expectations, Ji Nai has never disappointed him. She is now pregnant with her own child and is about to give birth to their fifth child.

Frequent pregnancies and childbirths have already consumed Ji Nai's energy, and there is also that damn heart disease, but what is he doing?

Kangxi suppressed his emotions and said with a smile: "I think you are not magnanimous, but heartless.

Things got so chaotic some time ago, and as soon as Nala sent you a message, you summoned people to give you a lecture. Aren't you afraid of being tricked?

At most, you can just tell me. With me here, do you think the Nara family would really dare to give up their responsibility?"

Although Ji Nai didn't understand how the topic changed so quickly, she really didn't want to continue with that dangerous question. "You said it nicely, but I didn't see you doing anything to help."

"What are you mumbling about?"

"No." Ji Nai retorted somewhat unhappily.

"Are you really unhappy?" Kangxi pinched Ji Nai's chin, making her look at him, and explained, "The person was sent by the Grand Empress Dowager. I just couldn't refuse."

Kangxi was right in front of him, so Ji Nai could only control his facial expression and not lose his composure. But Yuan Xu had no such scruples and his eyes were almost rolling up to the sky.

Well, Kangxi really didn’t have much confidence on this issue.

"I've been very busy lately. I've been dealing with Yinreng's affairs, Yinzhi's affairs, the selection of the empress, and so many political affairs of the previous dynasty. How could I have the time to spare?"

This actually explained to Ji Nai from the side that he really did not spend all day in the Qianqing Palace being dissolute and immoral with the beautiful palace maids.

Although the rumors outside have always focused on how seductive those palace maids were, if you look closely, you will find that the emperor was not a good person anyway.

But God knows, he did summon people to sleep with him, and he rarely entered the harem again. But that was because he looked down on those mediocre women in the harem, and he was afraid of any accidental conflict in Zhongcui Palace, so he didn't dare to come too often and could only stay in Qianqing Palace.

He didn't summon the palace maids to sleep with him very often, but no one is willing to believe it now.
