Quickly Transmigrate to Save the Child of Heaven

Chapter 196: Step by Step, Yin Zhen 10

As night fell, the stars twinkled, and a gentle breeze blew across the grasslands, bringing a touch of coolness. The leaders of various Mongol tribes arrived one after another to pay their respects to Emperor Kangxi. Dressed in magnificent attire and riding majestic horses, they arrived majestically at the camp. Emperor Kangxi personally greeted them and ordered a grand bonfire banquet to entertain these distinguished guests.

At the banquet, a blazing bonfire illuminated the entire camp. Emperor Kangxi and the Mongolian princes gathered around the bonfire, engaging in a joyful conversation. They reminisced about the beauty of the grasslands, the robust cattle and sheep, and the lives of the various ethnic groups. Emperor Kangxi also introduced the princes to the culture and traditions of the Qing Dynasty, hoping to foster exchange and integration between Mongolia and the Qing.

However, Feng Xi was unable to attend the bonfire due to her large belly and limited mobility. She chose to take a stroll with her maids, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the grasslands. When they reached an open meadow, Feng Xi suddenly saw Ruoxi leading a horse. Feng Xi was moved and wanted to take a closer look, but Chunhua stopped her, worried about her safety.

"Fujin, you'd better not go. You are pregnant and it's not safe." Chunhua advised.

Feng Xi thought about it and felt that Chunhua's words made sense, so she gave up the idea of approaching and turned away. A moment later, she saw the Fourth Prince approaching again. He took the reins and personally taught Ruoxi how to ride. Watching this heartwarming scene, Feng Xi couldn't help but think of how the time-traveling women seemed to have a special affection for the Fourth Prince, while she felt nothing for him. She shook her head, smiled helplessly, and then left silently with Chunhua.

After returning to the tent, Chunhua helped Fengxi change into comfortable clothes while asking, "Fujin, what's going on between the Fourth Prince and Miss Ruoxi?"

Feng Xi smiled slightly and replied calmly: "Maybe it's just ordinary teaching, let's just ignore it." After that, she gently stroked her belly, feeling the baby's fetal movement, and her mood gradually calmed down.

So Feng Xi slowly took off the hairpin on her head, gently placed it in an exquisite box, and then said softly: "The interests of the royal family come first!" Her voice was filled with a hint of sadness and helplessness, as if she had seen through the cruelty and ruthlessness of court life.

Just as she was lost in thought, she suddenly heard footsteps behind her. She turned around and saw Yinzhen walking in, reeking of alcohol. His eyes were hazy and his steps were unsteady, but his face was filled with determination and perseverance.

Feng Xi frowned and asked with concern: "Why did you drink so much? Chunhua, go to the kitchen and make some sobering soup." Looking at the depressing atmosphere in the room, Chunhua quickly saluted and left in a hurry.

Yinzhen staggered to Feng Xi's side, put his arm around her shoulders, and asked drunkenly, "Xixi, do you have any use for me?" His tone was full of anticipation and eagerness, as if he wanted to get an answer from Feng Xi.

Feng Xi sighed helplessly and said slowly, "Yinzhen, I didn't take advantage of our relationship! What about you?"

Yinzhen answered without hesitation: "I don't, I really love you..." His voice was firm and powerful, as if love was everything and could overcome all difficulties and obstacles.

Feng Xi turned around, tears welling up in her eyes. She took a deep breath, trying to control her emotions, and then said, "Yinzhen, I believe in your feelings for me, but I can't trust this huge royal family." Yinzhen put his head on Feng Xi's shoulder and said, "No matter what? You and the child are my bottom line. I won't let anyone hurt you, not even the emperor and mother!" Feng Xi didn't say anything after hearing this, just leaning in his arms. Everyone knows the helplessness of the imperial family. Even if you sit on that throne, you can't do whatever you want. At this time, Qiuyue brought the hangover soup and said, "Fourteenth Master, hangover soup! Chunhua saw some fresh mushrooms in the kitchen and wanted to make a bowl of chicken soup with mushrooms for Fu Jin... and said she would send it over to you and Fu Jin as a midnight snack later." After that, she left the tent.

Feng Xi frowned slightly and said hesitantly, "Do you know what I saw today? Fourth Brother was actually teaching Ruoxi how to ride a horse!"

Yin Zhen was stunned when he heard this, but he quickly regained his composure. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "I'll check this matter later."

However, Feng Xi shook her head and said softly, "No need to check. The brothers below must know. I just feel that he seems to have bad intentions. I don't know what he wants to do. Also, you should pay attention to the whereabouts of the prince. I always feel that something might happen to the prince during this trip. I have been feeling uneasy."

Yinzhen patted Fengxi's shoulder gently and comforted her, "Maybe you're feeling uneasy because the baby is about to be born. Don't think too much, everything will be fine."

Just then, Chunhua walked in with a bowl of steaming hot chicken and mushroom noodles. The noodles were distinct, the broth rich, and the aroma enticing. Fengxi and Yinzhen eagerly took the bowl, scooping up the noodles with their chopsticks and shoving them into their mouths. With each bite, their eyes lit up. The noodles had a chewy texture, and paired with the delicious chicken broth and tender mushrooms, the taste was simply divine! As they ate, they couldn't stop praising the mushrooms.
