Rebirth of His Royal Highness Prince Chenghu

Kangxi whispered, "Go, I will keep an eye on Baocheng and make sure he doesn't cause you any trouble." He watched her back.

Qingyao took Chunxi's hand and stepped into the storeroom together. She took out the key, turned it gently, and the door opened. They walked in slowly. "Look, that screen over there. The twenty-four flower signs on it are magnificent, like a flowing scroll, telling the rhythm of the four seasons and the beauty of nature."

Chunxi's eyes fell on the screen, and she sparkled with admiration. She couldn't help but exclaim, "Mother, that screen is so beautiful!"

Qingyao: "I'll ask Chunyu and the others to take care of it later and send it to your bedroom."

Chunxi said sweetly, "Thank you, mother," and excitedly threw herself into her mother's arms.

Qingyao hugged her gently and said softly, "Why thank you? You are also my beloved daughter. You have everything your brothers have."

Chunxi's eyes sparkled with anticipation as she pleaded, "Mother, can you teach me how to embroider?"

Qingyao readily agreed, took her hand and walked out of the warehouse, carefully locking the door. Together they returned to the quiet courtyard.

Chunxi snuggled up to her mother obediently, like a docile kitten, making people love her.

In the yard

Kangxi was immersed in busy official duties, occasionally looking up to pay attention to the two princes who were playing happily, enjoying a moment of fatherly company.

Qingyao gently took Chunxi's hand and sat down beside the embroidery frame. She took out the calligraphy she had written yesterday and began to meticulously trace the pattern, each line appearing so smooth and natural.

Chunxi sat quietly by the side, staring intently.

Qingyao meticulously traced each word. After finishing, she gently put down her pen, stretched her tired neck, and said with emotion, "I really need to embroider less words like this in the future."

Chunxi pouted and looked at her mother helplessly, "Mother, why is this so complicated?"

Qingyao: "Chunxi, now that you've learned it, don't challenge this Hundred Longevity Painting lightly. It's so complicated it's giving you a headache."

Chunxi replied respectfully, "I understand, mother. I will remember your teachings and will never embroider that picture of a hundred longevity again."

Qingyao gently picked up a golden silk thread in her hand and carefully began to draw exquisite patterns on the embroidery cloth.

Chunxi praised sincerely, "Mother, you are truly amazing."

Qingyao embroidered carefully and taught her seriously.

Chunxi's eyes sparkled with anticipation, and she asked eagerly, "Mother, can you let me try?"

Qingyao: "Of course, if you embroider well, starting tomorrow you and I will embroider a longevity picture together for your Royal Mama."

Chunxi readily responded, "Of course."

Qingyao gently put down the needle and thread in her hand, stood up gracefully, and gave up her seat: "Come, sit down, and try it."

The needle and thread in Chunxi's hand flew between her fingertips, and the skills carefully taught by her mother kept echoing in her mind. She carried out every step strictly according to the requirements.

Qingyao exclaimed in admiration: "Chunxi, your embroidery skills are really good!"

Chunxi said modestly: "Mother, please don't praise me. I am far behind you."

Qingyao: "My husband, my husband, come and see how beautiful Chunxi's embroidery is."

Kangxi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll be there later." After that, he buried his head in the memorial in his hand and gave his instructions with full concentration.

Qingyao said gently, "Chunxi, you embroider first, let me take a rest."

Chunxi responded obediently, "Okay, mother." Then she continued to embroider carefully, with the thread in her hands dancing like flying.

Qingyao sat quietly by the side, watching intently.

Kangxi finished processing the mountain of memorials and put down his red brush. He stood up and walked towards her, his face full of curiosity: "Qingqing, what are you reading?"

Qingyao excitedly pointed at the part where Chunxi had embroidered well and said proudly, "Look, she can embroider so well with just a little guidance from me."

Kangxi praised her, saying, "Your Majesty has taught me well, and Chunxi is very smart and clever. It is really gratifying."

Qingyao thoughtfully reminded him, "My dear husband, you've been wearing court robes all the time. Aren't you tired? How about changing into something more comfortable?"

Kangxi nodded and said softly, "Okay." Then he stretched out his hand, gently led her back to the house, and walked into the inner hall together.

Qingyao obediently followed him into the inner hall. Together, they walked to the wardrobe. He gently opened it, and she took out a set of casual clothes. Then, she closed the door, returned to his side, and laid the clothes on the bed. She gently untied his belt, carefully removed his court robes, then helped him change into his casual clothes, carefully tying the belt.

Kangxi smiled slightly, letting her gently untie the belt of his court robes, slowly spreading his arms and letting her change into his casual clothes.

Qingyao said softly, "My husband, you have worked hard today." She raised her jade hand and carefully took off the heavy crown on his head.

Kangxi gently uttered "not bad" and looked at her busy figure with gentle eyes.

Qingyao carefully took care of his court robes and crown, placing them properly and meticulously.

Kangxi said casually: "As long as it is placed properly, there is no need to worry about the rest."

Qingyao chuckled and said, "Fortunately, I have your regular clothes here, my husband. Otherwise, you would have to go back to the Qianqing Palace to change."

Kangxi: "After the wedding, I asked Liang Jiugong to bring some casual clothes and leave them here for you. It's convenient for you to change here. You can't find them anywhere else."

Qingyao said softly, "My concubine's clothes are also in my husband's Qianqing Palace.

Kangxi smiled slightly and said softly, "I prepared it specially for you, so that when you stay overnight, you can change into new clothes the next day to make you more comfortable."

Qingyao couldn't help but put her arms around his waist, leaning gently on his chest, and said with emotion: "Husband, you are so caring."

Kangxi gently took her slender waist into his arms, his tone full of care: "Look at you, so thin. You must eat more at lunch and nourish your body well."

Qingyao retorted, "Husband, didn't you say before that you don't like women who are too plump? Why am I so thin?"

Kangxi: "Yes, Qingqing, you don't need to lose weight anymore. You are just the right size. It's a good thing you didn't give birth to twins, otherwise I would have been scared."

Qingyao sighed, "Indeed, being too thin is not a good thing."

Chuxiu Palace

Concubine Zhao couldn't hide her slight cough, which was like a gentle autumn breeze, attracting people's attention.

Banxia said with concern, "Madam, why don't you ask an imperial physician to come and take a look?"

Concubine Zhao smiled faintly and said, "It's just a cold, a few coughs are nothing serious, there's really no need to mobilize a large number of people to call in the imperial physician."

Banxia: "But since the election, His Majesty has not set foot here."

Concubine Zhao retorted dissatisfiedly: "It's not just my Chuxiu Palace that hasn't had anyone come. No one from Chengqian Palace, Yonghe Palace, or even Yikun Palace has come. What's the rush?"

Banxia: "Your Majesty, having an heir is crucial for your future. The general election will be held in three years, and a newcomer will definitely enter the palace. You should consider this."

Concubine Zhao calmly responded, "That's because the Empress is kind-hearted and never deliberately makes things difficult for the sisters in the harem, including me."

"But Your Majesty..." Banxia's tone was filled with hesitation and confusion.

Concubine Zhao said softly, "Go down, I want to be alone for a while."
