Chapter 333 Comforting the Emperor and Protecting the Throne
The emperor reached out and held Fucha Zhixi in his arms, comforting her softly.
"Don't blame the emperor. The emperor doesn't want to see this happen."
"It's just that none of us thought that Concubine Nian would bully Concubine Wan like this. Your Majesty and I underestimated Concubine Nian, and I overestimated myself, thinking that I could help the Emperor protect the two pregnant concubines."
Fu Cha Zhixi naturally would not push the problem onto the emperor. How could the emperor be wrong?
Even if it was his fault, she couldn't say it directly. Isn't this a clear provocation to the emperor's authority?
"Xi'er, I really didn't expect Concubine Nian to be like this. I misjudged Concubine Nian. I thought she was just jealous. I didn't expect that she would do such a cruel thing to a pregnant concubine."
When the emperor heard Fu Cha Zhixi say that it was not his problem, a warm feeling suddenly surged in his heart. It turned out that Xier understood him the best.
The child in Wanpin's belly is also his child. How could he really want to see Wanpin's child die?
Concubine Wan just kept blaming him for the fault, but how could he have imagined that Concubine Nian would be so reckless as to attack a pregnant concubine, and neither Concubine Xuan nor Concubine Jing were able to persuade Concubine Nian.
"Don't you think that the punishment I gave to Concubine Nian today was too light?"
The emperor was silent for a long time before he spoke in a low voice.
"To be honest, it is a little bit. The pain of losing a child is heart-wrenching. If anything happened to my Fu Zhen, I would want to cut the murderer into pieces, but it would not be enough to vent my anger."
"But I also understand that it is not easy for the emperor. Sometimes you can't do whatever you want as an emperor."
"Your Majesty is not only my husband and my father, but also the ruler of the world. You must consider the overall situation in everything you say and do."
"I believe that Your Majesty must be very sad after losing his child, but Your Majesty cannot cry with Wanpin like this, and even has to force himself to comfort Wanpin."
"So although I do not agree emotionally with the emperor's punishment of Concubine Nian, I understand it rationally."
It seems that Zhen Huan's call for the killing of Concubine Nian as in the original plot displeased the Emperor, but she did not intend to add insult to injury and completely step on Zhen Huan.
As a mother, Zhen Huan is pitiful for losing her child.
There was no need for her to step on the other party's grief of losing his child to become the emperor's confidant. She could have been a good temporary confidant by using a more assertive approach.
What's more, she said all this now just to make room for herself in the future. She was not an understanding person, nor was she a good person who would not take revenge. If anyone dared to touch her child, she would definitely retaliate tenfold or a hundredfold.
"You."
The emperor looked at Fu Cha Zhixi's serious expression somewhat helplessly, and couldn't help but reach out and flick him.
He thought the other party would say something comforting according to what he said. She didn't believe that the other party couldn't guess what answer she wanted to get by saying this.
Forget it, Xier is just that kind of person, and it’s not the first day he knows about this.
However, Xier's honesty made him feel particularly at ease, even though the truth was sometimes unpleasant to others.
"Since the emperor has asked, I must tell him. I cannot lie to him."
"I don't like any concealment or deception between me and the emperor."
Fu Cha Zhixi covered his head, pursed his lips angrily and said.
"Yes, yes, it's my fault."
The emperor chuckled and reached out to rub the red mark on Fucha Zhixi's forehead. The skin was so tender that it turned red without him even using any force.
"Su Peisheng, go call the imperial physician."
The emperor frowned as he looked at the red marks that had not gone away, then looked at Su Peisheng and said.
"Hey, hey, hey, Eunuch Su, don't go."
Fu Cha Zhixi quickly spoke up to stop him.
"Your Majesty, this will soon go away. If I consult the imperial physician about this, wouldn't all the concubines in the harem know about it tomorrow? Then I won't be able to face anyone."
Fu Cha Zhixi looked at the emperor and spoke.
"Okay, okay, I'll do as you say."
The emperor looked at Fu Cha Zhixi with some amusement and said.
"Xi'er, Fuzhen is almost one year old now. When will he have a little brother?"
The emperor looked at Fucha Zhixi's flat belly and asked.
"emperor."
Fu Cha Zhixi shyly punched the emperor lightly on the chest with her hand.
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Having children is a moral obligation and we should be happy about it."
The emperor looked at the blushing Fu Cha Zhixi and couldn't help but chuckle, then he took her into his arms.
Fuzhen is so old now, but Xier is still so shy when talking about these things. It's really cute.
Seeing that Fu Cha Zhixi was so embarrassed that she couldn't even raise her head, the emperor changed the subject and the two of them stayed affectionate for a while.
After dinner, Fu Chazhi took the building blocks that he had asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make and played with the little one.
The little guy is not very interested in other toys, but he likes this one very much. His favorite thing is building a city wall, which looks a bit like the Great Wall.
If he likes the Great Wall so much, he can’t be the reincarnation of Emperor Zulong.
Fu Cha Zhixi couldn't help but think about it secretly in his heart, but then he felt it was unlikely.
It was the first time that the emperor had seen such an exquisite toy. He played with little Fuzhen for a long time. The tacit understanding between the father and son became better and better during the process of playing with toys.
As Fu Zhen grew older, he became more and more childish. He no longer often thought about his past life. Instead, he was completely immersed in experiencing this rare maternal love and feeling the joy of growing up comfortably under the protection of his mother.
It had been a long time since the emperor had accompanied little Fuzhen like this. He played with him for a long time until the little guy yawned several times and began to feel sleepy. Then he ordered the wet nurse to take him away.
The emperor looked at the well-behaved and sensible little Fuzhen, and couldn't help but think of the child that Concubine Wan had lost, and couldn't help but sigh heavily.
"After such a long time, there is only one child, Fu Zhen, in the palace. Originally, Fu Zhen was going to have two brothers and sisters by the end of this year, but now there is only one left."
Let’s not do that.
There really is a throne to be inherited in her son's family.
Having too many competitors is not a good thing.
Her Fu Zhen didn't need too many younger brothers to compete with him for the throne. She only hoped that her Fu Zhen could be as lucky as Qianlong in history and be guaranteed the throne.
Instead of being like his father, he had to have nine sons compete for the throne.
Fucha Zhixi chuckled and looked at the emperor and said.
"Fortunately, Sister An's child is still fine. Your Majesty should not be too sad."
