The Imperial Noble Consort turned her head and looked at Kangxi pitifully.

Kangxi's face darkened considerably, but he still didn't change his mind and said, "Alright, Lady Uya, you've just given birth, so you should go back and rest. The child will be temporarily cared for by the Imperial Noble Consort. We'll discuss the rest after you've recovered."

After saying that, he ignored what happened next and walked out.

They did not see Wuya's ashen face.

She probably never imagined that the Emperor, knowing full well that her belly was abnormally large when she gave birth, would ignore it all and even hand the child over to that wretched Imperial Noble Consort.

It's over, everything is over.

In Chengqian Palace, some were happy while others were sad. Kangxi was indeed in a bad mood and was preparing to return to Qianqing Palace.

Halfway there, he remembered that when Mingxiu left, her expression was a little off, and she turned around and went to Yonghe Palace.

As the recollection ended, a smile appeared on Kangxi's face as he looked at the little woman sleeping soundly in his arms.

He will investigate the matter at Chengqian Palace, and he will not let anyone who has done wrong go unpunished.

Thinking about it, Kangxi's expression turned somewhat gloomy.

Mingxiu, still asleep, sensed that something was off about the air around her. She shifted her body restlessly and let out a soft groan.

Sensing the restlessness of the person in his arms, Kangxi pulled himself out of his thoughts, gently patted the back of the person in his arms, and soon Mingxiu fell into a deep sleep.

Looking at the person who had fallen asleep, Kangxi chuckled softly, lowered his head to kiss Mingxiu's forehead, and then held her as he fell asleep.

The tranquil environment is relaxing, and the atmosphere at Yonghe Palace is very harmonious, but the atmosphere in other parts of the palace is not so good.

Although the other concubines had long since left, and the Imperial Noble Consort had tried to cover things up and prevent the matter from escalating, the commotion in Chengqian Palace was so great that everyone had heard some rumors.

After making a few inquiries, and having lived in the harem for a long time, everyone knew what was going on. Although they didn't say anything on the surface, they all had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on.

I know what happened.

The next day, Mingxiu woke up around noon.

I opened my eyes, glanced around groggily, and found that no one was beside me. I stretched, picked up the pillow that I had tossed aside, tucked it into my arms, and fell asleep while hugging it.

She's getting lazier and lazier; she doesn't want to get out of bed until noon if she doesn't sleep in.

As expected, one shouldn't be lazy. I comfortably closed my eyes, ready to sleep until the end of time.

However, Green Bamboo did not let his empress fall asleep like that. Hearing the noise coming from inside the room, he knew that his empress had woken up.

He pushed the door open and pulled Mingxiu out of bed.

When Mingxiu sat in front of the dressing table, still half asleep and waiting to get her makeup done, she was completely dazed.

She stared blankly at Green Bamboo, her eyes filled with resentment. She couldn't understand why Green Bamboo had woken her up so early in the morning. Hadn't she been letting Green Bamboo sleep until she naturally woke up before?

Green Bamboo looked at her mistress with some helplessness, quickly stroking Mingxiu's face with her hands, and began to explain the reason: "Your Majesty, it's really not that I don't want you to sleep, but His Majesty said that you sleep too much and move too little every day. This is not good for your health in the long run, so he asked me to wake you up in the morning and let you move around a little."

"Your Majesty, you've given me a real problem!" Green Bamboo looked at Mingxiu, who was still gazing at her with resentment, and felt that she could hardly bear her mistress's resentful eyes any longer.

After listening to Green Bamboo's explanation, Mingxiu's already puzzled expression became even more confused. So why hadn't the Emperor ever paid attention to her schedule before?

He took the wrong medicine...

This sudden turn of events caught Mingxiu completely off guard.

Could it be that I did something to offend him? No, I don't think so.

I don't remember.

Mingxiu sat in the chair, racking her brains for a long time, but she couldn't figure out why.

But after some fiddling, Mingxiu regained consciousness.

Looking at myself in the mirror, I shook my head a few times. Well, I'm awake now anyway, so I might as well go out for a walk.

Otherwise, this makeup would be wasted. I don't know what's wrong with Green Bamboo so early in the morning. It's understandable that she was asked to get up, since it was the Emperor's order.

But why get up so early to do her makeup? It feels like a waste not to go out for a stroll or do something elegant with this makeup on.

Green Bamboo looked at Mingxiu who was sighing and secretly smiled, secretly thinking of her own merits and fame.

After all this time, how could I not understand my own empress's thoughts? Although I don't know why my empress feels guilty and sorry for the makeup if she puts on makeup but can't go out for a stroll.

But the benefits are still very obvious now, so there's not much need to persuade them anymore.

For breakfast, Mingxiu ate some white fungus and lotus seed porridge, a meat bun, a vegetable pancake, and some side dishes. After eating and drinking her fill, she prepared to go out for a stroll.

Before leaving, I glanced at my makeup; it was perfect.

So, she happily took Green Bamboo out.

He went outside and looked around, not knowing where to go. At this time, Yinreng was still in class, and the Emperor was also busy.

As for the Imperial Garden, Mingxiu really didn't want to go there. It was a dangerous place, so she decided to stay away from those areas altogether.

After thinking it over, Mingxiu finally fixed her gaze on the direction of Yanxi Palace.

Thinking that I haven't been to Yanxi Palace much in a long time, I might as well go and take a look.

They set off without hesitation, taking only green bamboo with them.

Yanxi Palace is Consort Hui's palace. For various reasons, Mingxiu hadn't been able to come here much before, but today she finally got to see it for herself.
