Rebirth of His Royal Highness Prince Chenghu

Changchun Garden

Kangxi held Yinzhen in his arms, the little fellow babbling and dancing, a truly adorable sight. Kangxi fondled him with a doting expression, occasionally letting out a hearty laugh. Meanwhile, his gaze drifted to Qingyao, who was tenderly holding Yinzhen. Qingyao, dressed in a light blue Manchu dress, was graceful, her face rosy and beautiful.

Kangxi asked softly, "My dear, I want to go out for some sightseeing these days. I wonder if you would like to go with me?" His eyes were full of anticipation, as if he would take Qingyao out immediately if she nodded.

Qingyao lowered her head slightly and said softly, "Husband, you should go alone. Or, you can ask your cousins ​​to accompany you. After all, Yinxuan and Yinxuan are still young and really need someone to look after them. They need careful care right now, and I'm really worried about them."

Kangxi nodded slightly, his eyes calmly gazing into the distance as he slowly said, "Let's put this matter aside for now. It won't be too late to make a decision when they are older. There's no need to rush."

Qingyao looked at Kangxi, her eyes gleaming with a determined yet complex light. She slowly spoke, "I will be frank with you today. Aside from the fact that Yinxuan and Yinzhen are still young, I truly no longer wish to travel with my husband. Back when I was in the palace, Your Highness was the Emperor, and it was normal for him to have so many beauties in his harem. I knew better than to harbor jealousy. However, now that Your Highness has abdicated, he still mentions wanting to travel with me. Given this, I naturally feel the need to honor our agreement. Back then, I made it clear that if Your Highness truly wished to spend the rest of his life with me, traveling the world together, then from that moment on, Your Highness would be my husband and I would never allow him to have sex with anyone else, or I would be jealous!"

After hearing Qingyao's words, Kangxi was silent for a long time. He held Yinxuan in his arms and slowly walked towards Qingyao. "My dear, I know what you are thinking. I do owe you something." Kangxi's voice was filled with a hint of guilt.

Qingyao hugged Yinzhen tightly and looked up at Kangxi, "Your Majesty, I am not unreasonable. I just hope that Your Majesty can understand my heart."

Kangxi gently held Qingyao's hand and said, "Now that I have abdicated, I want to make amends to you. I promise you that from now on, I will only take care of you and the children."

Surprise flashed in Qingyao's eyes, "Are you serious, Your Majesty?" Kangxi nodded solemnly.

At this time, a maid came over to report that several princes had come to pay their respects. Kangxi waved his hand and said, "Just say I'm busy today."

A happy smile appeared on Qingyao's face. Kangxi held Yinxuan in his arms and pulled Qingyao into the house. "Today I will accompany you to take a good look at the scenery of this garden. We still have a long time to live together as a family." The sun shone, and the figures of the family of four exuded warmth and harmony.

One night, Yinhuan suddenly developed a high fever. Qingyao was distraught, and Kangxi quickly sent for the best imperial physician. While the physician examined him, Kangxi held Qingyao's hand tightly, offering comfort. Fortunately, Yinhuan recovered. This incident made Qingyao feel even more deeply Kangxi's sincerity.

As time went by, Kangxi spent his days with Qingyao, enjoying flowers and painting, and teaching the child to read and write. Occasionally, old ministers would visit, and seeing Kangxi's comfortable and contented life, they could not help but feel deeply moved. The once majestic emperor at court was now a husband and father devoted to protecting his family.
