Since they are all worn by the Qing Dynasty, you might as well be bold and choose Kangxi!

Shi Nanxi was in a good mood as she looked at the five plates of lychees in a row.

Since the Qing Dynasty, there have been many inconveniences. Shi Rongyue has invented many things, but seasonal fruits like lychees cannot be eaten whenever you want.

He asked people to reward the servants who came to the emperor's presence, and watched the servants happily retreat.

Shi Nanxi ordered:

"Hongying, take one of the plates down and divide it. As for the remaining four plates, wash one and bring it up, and send the other three to the freezer to prevent them from getting spoiled."

"Oh, thank you, Your Majesty." Hongying was overjoyed, and soon the whole Chuxiu Palace became lively. At this moment, Kangxi came in with Liang Jiugong.

"What are you so happy about?"

When Shi Nanxi saw Kangxi coming in, she put down the lychees in her hand and was about to stand up to salute. Kangxi quickly took two steps forward and held her hand.

"Didn't I tell you not to be polite when you're pregnant?" He sat down opposite Shi Nanxi, not letting go of the hand he was holding.

Shi Nanxi did not refuse anymore and turned to answer Kangxi's previous question.

"It's all because of the lychees that the emperor gave me as a reward. I like them very much."

Seeing the washed lychees on the table, Kangxi smiled.

"I'm glad you like it, but..."

He changed the subject and warned:

"You are pregnant now, so you can't eat too many lychees at once. One or two is enough. The imperial physician has specifically instructed us to do so."

Shi Nanxi naturally knew this truth, but she pretended to look sad.

"Ah, Your Majesty, I love lychees the most. One or two at a time is not enough."

How could Kangxi not know what the little girl was doing? He raised his eyebrows and said:

"That eleven or twelve at a time?"

Shi Nanxi's eyes lit up and she opened her mouth to respond impatiently, but the next moment she saw Kangxi smiling at her belly and said:

"Yinqi or Rongzhao, your mother is disobedient. When you come out, you can laugh at her together with the emperor, okay?"

Shi Nanxi's words were stuck in her throat. She looked down at her still flat belly and twitched her lips.

"Your Majesty, can Yinqi or Rongzhao understand what you said?"

The baby was more than two months old when the embryo bud and fetal heartbeat appeared, but Kangxi actually complained to her in front of the child.

Kangxi's eyes were still on the little girl's belly, and he said with certainty:

"I am his royal father, of course he can understand." Then he added:

"Didn't you also say that if I talk to my belly, the child will know me? I have read so many books to the child, and he will definitely be very close to me, his royal father, in the future." He said this with a hint of pride.

Shi Nanxi held her forehead helplessly. She said, “That’s it. I won’t argue with Kangxi about this.”

"Yes, yes, I am closest to the Emperor."

Kangxi was very happy, as if he had won a battle. He let go of the little girl's hand, picked up the book on the table on the kang, and started today's prenatal education.

Shi Nanxi is more than two months old and has recently started to show symptoms of sleepiness. Before Kangxi finished reading the prenatal education for the day, she was almost drowsy. Seeing this, Kangxi put away the book.

"If you're sleepy, go to bed and don't catch a cold."

As he spoke, Kangxi stood up, picked up the little girl horizontally, and gently put her on the bed. Shi Nanxi looked at Kangxi in a daze.

"The Emperor is leaving?

Kangxi said softly:

"I won't leave. I'll stay here with you."

Hearing this, Shi Nanxi closed her eyes in relaxation. Kangxi covered her with a quilt, carefully took out the hairpin, and loosened her hair. After he was done, he looked at the sleeping face of the little girl for a long time, and then looked at her belly. His phoenix eyes were so soft that they seemed to be dripping with water.

He quietly walked out and asked someone to bring him writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone. He came back and sat on the couch, staring at the bedside, and started to paint.

When Shi Nanxi woke up, she was dazed for a while and remembered what Kangxi said before going to bed, that he would accompany her. Seeing that there was no one around her, she sat up and looked around while yawning.

Finally, I saw Kangxi by the window, but he was concentrating on holding a pen and no one knew what he was doing.

She thought about it and did not disturb him. She got up, lifted the quilt, walked downstairs, and waited until she reached Kangxi. Only then did she realize that he was actually painting, and the painting was of her in her sleep.

"How is the painting?" Kangxi's voice suddenly sounded.

Shi Nanxi first looked at herself in the painting to see if she was drooling. Well, no, then she looked at it carefully.

Compared with Shi Rongyue's previous sketches, Kangxi's paintings paid more attention to the proportion of light and shadow and the structure of the sketches, and paid more attention to the artistic conception and charm of the paintings. He painted her in her sleep very vividly. He nodded immediately and praised sincerely:

"Your Majesty's painting is really good."

Then he sighed:

"I have discovered that the Emperor is truly versatile. He seems to know everything and is very good at everything." She really felt that Kangxi was very smart and knowledgeable.

It must be said that this kind of sincere praise made Kangxi extremely happy and enjoyable. He narrowed his eyes and said happily:

"Then I will draw more for you and the children in the future."

Shi Nanxi naturally would not refuse this. This is a parent-child portrait. It will be very meaningful to make it into a booklet and read it with the child later.

He immediately agreed happily, and the two happily admired the painting for a while. Shi Nanxi asked someone to carefully put the painting away, and then Kangxi took her hand and sat on his lap.

Kangxi touched her belly and said:

"The weather has been getting hot recently. Let's go to Changchun Garden in a couple of days. The scenery there is great and it's more suitable for you to take care of your pregnancy."

"Okay!" Shi Nanxi leaned on Kangxi's shoulder, very happy.

"Last year, I went to Changchun Garden with the Queen Mother to worship Buddha. I was thinking that now that I'm pregnant, should I worship Buddha more carefully?"

However, Kangxi said:

"This time, we will go to the harem alone."

What's going on? Shi Nanxi looked at Kangxi.

Kangxi explained:

"The Queen Mother said she is not feeling well and will not be leaving this year. As for the others, you are pregnant and it will be too crowded and noisy if they go, so they will not go this time."

Shi Nanxi's heart moved, and she roughly understood that the Empress Dowager was afraid that it was because of the death of commoner Nianhulu. Even though she knew that Nianhulu killed Empress Xiaozhao, after all, they had been together for more than 20 years and had feelings for each other. She still felt a little sad. I heard that she has been in the Buddhist temple every day recently.

As for the others, probably because Kangxi was concerned about her pregnancy and of course was also angry about the Dragon Boat Festival, she didn't say anything, but instead said:

"Row."

After saying that, she happily called Ying and the others in and told them to start packing. Kangxi laughed at this scene.

Within two days, Kangxi, Shi Nanxi, important officials of the court and princes moved to Changchun Garden, while Concubine Hui and others stayed.

When they arrived at Changchun Garden, there were no other concubines following them. Not only was it quiet, it was also safer. Shi Nanxi felt very comfortable.

Every day she either took a walk to enjoy the scenery, or admired the flowers and drank tea, or read a book and listened to Kangxi playing the piano or painting, or tasted the delicious food made in the small kitchen. She didn't even have the reaction of early pregnancy. Instead, her face was rosy and her skin was better.

Moreover, because she has always adhered to the diet policy of eating small amounts frequently and taking a walk after meals every day, she has not gained any weight and her limbs are still slender. Shi Nanxi is very satisfied with this.

Two months passed in this comfortable life. One day, when Shi Nanxi got up and was about to get dressed, she suddenly found that her belly was bulging a little. She immediately said:

"Ah, I'm showing my pregnancy."

Hearing this, Nanny Yang, who was getting clothes for the queen, came over, looked at the queen's belly, and said with a smile:

"Your Majesty has been pregnant for more than four months. It's time to show your pregnancy."

This was the first time Shi Nanxi was pregnant in her two lives. At this moment, she carefully touched her belly. It was a little hard, but her heart was extremely soft.

After putting on her clothes and walking out of the screen, Shi Nanxi saw Hongying hurriedly walking in, looking solemn and saying:

"My queen, I just received news that the emperor's eldest grandson, little prince Hong'an, has passed away."

Shi Nanxi was suddenly shocked:

"Hongan died young?"
