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

Hongying was holding the Empress's hand and wiping her sweat with a handkerchief. When she heard Xia Hong's words, she quickly turned around and picked up the ginseng slices on the plate.

But she did not give it to the empress immediately. Instead, she checked it with a silver needle first. After finding no problems, she put away the silver needle. Still did not give it to the empress immediately, but held it in front of herself, carefully examining it inch by inch, and smelling it from time to time.

Xia Hong's hands tightened slightly when she saw this scene, but she asked anxiously and puzzledly:

"Sister Hongying, the queen is in a hurry to use the ginseng slices, what are you doing?"

She deliberately raised her voice when she spoke, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the delivery room.

Hongying didn't pay attention to other people's eyes, and all her attention was on checking the ginseng slices. When Nanny Yang saw this, she quickly explained on Hongying's behalf:

"Xia Hong, the queen's childbirth is a big deal, and all imported items must be handled with caution. Hongying is checking carefully just in case!"

"...I see." Xia Hong didn't dare to say anything more, but she was worried. After a while, Hongying finally finished the inspection and said:

"No problem, I'll give it to the queen now."

As he said this, he turned around and was about to put the ginseng slices into the Empress' mouth. Xia Hong felt relieved, but then she felt a little nervous as she watched Hongying's movements.

However, just as the ginseng slices were about to be put into the queen's mouth, Hongying's hand suddenly stopped and she frowned and said:

"wrong."

Then she abruptly withdrew her hand, stared at the ginseng slice in her hand, smelled it again, and the next moment, she blurted out:

"There's something wrong with this ginseng slice. It tastes like saffron. I almost got cheated."

Xia Hong didn't expect that she would be discovered at the last moment. She immediately looked ruthless and bit her tongue to commit suicide.

At this time, Nanny Yang, who heard the noise, looked over. She was already frightened and nervous, and after seeing Xia Hong's actions, she became even more shocked and angry.

"Quick, stop Xia Hong."

However, it was too late. Bright red blood flowed from Xia Hong's mouth. When everyone rushed over, Xia Hong was already dead.

Seeing this scene, Hongying's knuckles turned white as she pinched the ginseng slices, and she looked frightened. It was just a little bit, just a little bit, and she would have killed the empress.

This incident shocked everyone in the delivery room, but Nanny Yang, who was older, calm and dignified, adjusted her mood immediately. While asking people to continue delivering the baby, she instructed Zixia, who was helping to pass things, to go to the warehouse to get the ginseng slices.

As for Xia Hong and the ginseng slice, they were taken away. In the flower hall, after Kangxi received the news, he looked at the dead Xia Hong and the ginseng slice, and Liang Jiugong, who was suffering from low blood pressure, trembled all over.

"Investigate." This one word was spoken with murderous intent.

Liang Jiugong quickly responded.

After an unknown amount of time, Liang Jiugong came back and reported the results of the investigation to the emperor. Kangxi's eyes narrowed, and he was about to say something when he suddenly heard a baby crying outside the door.

Kangxi's mind suddenly went blank, but his body reacted faster than his brain and he rushed to the delivery room. The room was full of joy at the moment. Seeing Kangxi suddenly rushing in, they quickly congratulated the emperor and his child on their safety.

Nanny Yang walked over with the swaddling baby in her arms, smiling happily, wanting to show the little prince to the emperor. However, Kangxi seemed to be blind. He didn't even look at Nanny Yang, but walked past her and rushed towards Shi Nanxi who was lying on the bed.

He knelt on one knee, held her hand tightly with one hand, and said quickly:

"Nanxi, no more children, no more children, never again. We won't have any more children." Kangxi's voice was trembling with a hint of fear.

Shi Nanxi had just given birth, and she looked like she had been fished out of the water. Her hair was stuck to her face, her face was pale, and she looked weak, but she was still in good spirits.

Hearing Kangxi's words, she raised her pale lips.

"Does the emperor not like our Yin Yi?"

Kangxi gently tucked the wet hair from her face behind her ears and said solemnly:

"I like it, but he's not as important as your safety."

After hearing the emperor's words, the delivery room suddenly became quiet. Everyone couldn't help but look at each other silently. This was a prince. In the royal family, the son was always more noble than the mother. But the emperor said that the prince was not as important as the safety of Concubine Xian.

Even though they all knew that the Emperor doted on Imperial Noble Consort Xian and even favored her exclusively in the harem, they still couldn't help but be shocked at this time.

Men have always attached great importance to bloodline, otherwise why would so many women choose to abandon their mothers for their children during difficult childbirth? This is true for ordinary people outside, and in the royal family, the princes are even more noble. It is common for a mother to be honored by her son, but it is not common for a son to be honored by his mother.

Not to mention this situation, the Emperor's feelings for Imperial Noble Consort Xian are truly unique in the world.

Shi Nanxi held Kangxi's hand in return, and the two looked into each other's eyes. Everything was self-explanatory, and then Shi Nanxi looked at Nanny Yang.

Nanny Yang immediately understood and brought the little prince over.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please take a look at the little prince."

As he spoke, he lowered the swaddling clothes in his arms, revealing Yinyi who was sleeping inside. Kangxi's emotions had calmed down by this time, and he was in the mood to look at his little son. The first thing he said was:

"Are you sure it's Yinyi and not Rongzhao?"

It was no wonder that Kangxi had such doubts. The baby in the swaddling clothes had his eyes closed and his hands curled up on his chest as if in a surrender gesture. He looked neither fat nor thin, and his skin was not wrinkled and red like other babies who had just been born.

On the contrary, it is smoother, the skin is a little red, but mostly white.

Her facial features are very similar to those of Shi Nanxi, with a small oval face. Except for her eyebrows and eyes, which are like Kangxi, her lips are also light pink like Shi Nanxi, making her look delicate and exquisite like a doll.

Except for crying a few times when he was born, he was sleeping soundly at this time.

Shi Nanxi also saw the baby. This was her child. Her heart suddenly softened, but at the same time she was also a little confused. Was the gender wrong?

Faced with the emperor and the queen's suspicious eyes, Yang Ma was helpless. She also thought she had made a mistake at first glance. At this time, she said nothing and gently lifted a corner of the swaddling clothes, then carefully covered it again, and then said:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it is indeed the young prince."

After hearing this, Shi Nanxi didn't care anymore. As long as she wasn't mistaken, it was fine. If she looked like a girl, she would be a girl. There were many boys with girlish looks anyway. Besides, she was still young and hadn't grown up yet.

Kangxi had no objection, even if she looked like a little girl. Then the two of them looked at Yinyi together. The more Kangxi looked at her, the more he liked her. He suddenly raised his hand and said:

"Come and hold me."

Upon hearing this, Nanny Yang was delighted. The Manchus would rather embrace their grandchildren than their sons. It seemed that the little prince was very much loved by the emperor. She quickly and carefully handed the child to the emperor.

Kangxi's movements were a little stiff at first, but fortunately he quickly adjusted his posture, hugged Yinyi, and whispered:

"My dear little Yinyi, I will personally teach you how to read and write from now on, and teach you all my skills, okay?"

Hearing this, the palace maids in the room were shocked, and even Liang Jiugong was overwhelmed. Shi Nanxi saw this and suddenly said:

"Everyone else, stand down."

Hearing this, Kangxi was a little confused, but he still waved his hand, and the palace servants retreated silently, leaving only the family of three in the house.

Shi Nanxi glanced at Kangxi, then at Yinyi in his arms, took a deep breath, and said:

"Your Majesty, I beg you for a favor."
