Rebirth of His Royal Highness Prince Chenghu

Time passed by so quickly, as if in the blink of an eye, Wu Xiha and Qingyao had both ended their confinement days.

Qingyao gently took Kangxi's arm and said, "My husband, look, time flies by so fast! In the blink of an eye, Sixteen and Seventeen in our family will be full-mooned. I was thinking, why not hold their full-moon banquet together with Xiaowu's family's lovely twin boy and girl. It will be so lively. What do you think?" Her beautiful big eyes looked at Kangxi expectantly, waiting for his answer.

Kangxi raised his eyebrows slightly, thought for a moment and said, "This is a good idea, but we need to ask Xiaowu and his wife about this matter." When Qingyao heard this, the smile on her face became even more intense, and she nodded in agreement.

So Kangxi took Qingyao to Prince Yong's mansion. Upon hearing this, Yinzhen and Wu Xiha exchanged a glance, and Wu Xiha spoke first: "Father, Mother, this is a good thing. We're just worried that our two children might offend the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Princes. After all, their statuses are different." Qingyao smiled and waved her hand: "It's okay, it's okay. We're all family, there's no need to be so particular. Besides, it's fate that the children celebrate their birthdays together." Yinzhen also quickly agreed: "Since Mother said so, then it's of course very good." Kangxi was delighted to see this.

Preparations for the grand full-moon banquet began. The servants bustled about, procuring rare ingredients and magnificent decorations. Meanwhile, the women in the household busied themselves discussing the attire for the children's full-moon celebrations. Qingyao personally selected the silks, ensuring each child would be given the most beautiful and fitting garment. Wu Xiha also actively participated, suggesting many innovative patterns and designs. The entire palace was immersed in the joy of the impending banquet, eagerly anticipating the day to witness this crucial moment in the children's growth.

As the date of the full moon banquet approaches, guests from all sides receive invitations one after another.

The full-moon banquet took place as planned. The palace was festooned with lights and colorful decorations, and children appeared in exquisitely adorned attire, each one a picture of exquisite beauty. The guests were filled with laughter and joy, and the full-moon banquet concluded with a grand success.

Qingyao took Kangxi's arm, rocked him gently and said, "My dear, what are the names of Sixteen and Seventeen in our family? You have never told me before! As their mother, I am very curious." Her big watery eyes blinked at Kangxi, full of anticipation.

Kangxi smiled dotingly and whispered, "The sixteenth prince will be named Yinhuan, and the seventeenth prince will be named Yinhuan." Qingyao heard this and repeated the two names in her mouth, her face filled with happiness.

Yet beneath this calm surface, undercurrents surged. Someone outside the palace spread a rumor that the birth of twins, a boy and a girl, was an ominous sign, as the coincidence of the two princes having their full moons on the same day was too great. This rumor gradually spread to some ears, causing a minor commotion.

Wu Xiha was secretly saddened when she learned about this, and Yinzhen comforted her, telling her not to worry about such nonsense. However, Wu Xiha knew that people's words could be terrifying and worried about the impact on her child's future. When Qingyao learned about this, she was furious and took Kangxi's hand and brought him to the public.

Qingyao said loudly: "I will make it clear here today that it is a great joy for these children to be one month old on the same day. How can it be considered an ominous sign? If anyone dares to gossip about it again, I will not let him off easily." Kangxi also nodded majestically to show his support for Qingyao's statement.

Seeing the attitudes of the retired emperor and the empress dowager, everyone stopped talking. After the storm subsided, the relationship between the families became even closer, especially between Wu Xiha and Qingyao, who supported and cared for each other like real mother and daughter, and worked together to protect the healthy growth of their children.
