Princess Chenghuan's residence was right next door, only a ten-minute carriage ride away. When the people of the princess's residence saw Kangxi's carriage, they quickly went out to greet him.

Mingxiu ignored them and pulled Kangxi directly into the courtyard.

The servants in front saw this and quickly led the people inside.

As soon as they stepped into Chenghuan's courtyard, Mingxiu and Kangxi heard a loud cry.

Mingxiu's heart tightened, and she quickly went inside to see the midwife who had come out to announce the good news.

"Congratulations, Your Highness, congratulations! Her Highness the Princess and her child are safe and sound."

Upon hearing the news, Mingxiu felt relieved and completely relaxed, leaning against Kangxi's chest.

Zhang Tinglu was also delighted. He turned around and saw Mingxiu and Kangxi standing behind him, so he quickly stepped forward to pay his respects.

Emperor Kangxi was delighted and waved his hand to dismiss the formalities. Kangxi and Zhang Tinglu stayed outside to watch the children, while Mingxiu went in to see Chenghuan.

When Mingxiu entered, the delivery room had already been prepared. Mingxiu walked over and looked at Chenghuan, who was pale but still very energetic, and smiled: "How was it? You gave birth really quickly. Your father and I hadn't even arrived yet and you had already given birth."

"That's all thanks to Mother. I've heard that I was born very quickly, and I'm just inheriting that from you." Cheng Huan was usually in good health and didn't suffer much during childbirth, so she felt fine this time.

Mingxiu gently touched Chenghuan's face with heartache: "Yes, yes, you're used to my kindness. My Chenghuan, you've worked hard. Now you can rest well."

Cheng Huan nodded with a smile, closed her eyes, and quickly fell asleep.

Mingxiu tucked Chenghuan in, watched for a while, and then took her outside to see the child still in Kangxi's arms.

As soon as Mingxiu walked over, Kangxi handed the child to her directly. The biological father could only watch longingly, and couldn't help but ask about Chenghuan's condition.

While coaxing the child, Mingxiu and Kangxi watched Zhang Tinglu's performance and exchanged a satisfied glance. Fortunately, he knew how to cherish Chenghuan, and they had made the right choice in choosing a consort.

Their hard work in making this happen was definitely worthwhile.

Mingxiu frowned as she looked at the wrinkled baby in her arms; she really couldn't tell who the child resembled.
