Wang Shu is currently very satisfied with her life.

No need for formalities; the food, clothing, and daily necessities are all of the finest quality.

Although there are fewer entertainment options, she has figured out how the watch works, which is currently a way to pass the time and keeps her life from getting boring.

Emperor Kangxi would come over from time to time to keep her company, chat with her to relieve her boredom, and flirt with her.

Aside from a lack of freedom, everything is perfect.

Enjoying her snacks and flipping through her sketchbook, she complained to the system, "The writing is really good, and the content is passable, but it's a bit short and there are no punctuation marks, so it's really hard on my eyes!"

"Host, you should be content! No palace intrigue is as leisurely as yours!"

How could Wang Shu be satisfied? "Do you have any novels or TV series stored there?"

She wanted to read, and although picture books could pass the time, only some ghost stories were worth reading. Most of them were rather vulgar. There should be other types, but given the environment of the Qing Dynasty, they couldn't be circulated into the palace!

System: "...Can I not have it?"

Wang Shu's eyes lit up: "Then it's here! System, that's not very nice of you. We've been through thick and thin together, and you didn't even think of sharing some good stuff with me. You're being too distant!"

system……

The system grumbled as it brought up the novels and TV series for her. Upon seeing them, Wang Shu was even happier.

"Wow, it's a holographic projection! Wow, there are even mecha movies! So realistic, so cool!"

Wang Shu was overjoyed. She never expected that her simple act of messing with the system would unearth so much content. Most of these videos had names she had heard of before, and they came from the system's "home" interstellar world, while others were familiar to her.

Looks like we'll have to be more careful with our inventory from now on; who knows what kind of stock we might still have!

Before we knew it, the end of the year was approaching.

Baozhu: "Your Majesty, Consort Yi gave birth to a prince last night, and both mother and child are safe and sound."

Wang Shu said, "Have someone send a gift over there!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Consort Yi gave birth, and that night, Emperor Kangxi came to her place; she was already ready to serve him in bed.

"Not in a good mood today?"

"I'm not in a bad mood. I heard that Consort Yi gave birth to a prince for you. I'm a little envious. I wish I could give you a child someday. I'm pretty. If I give birth to a princess, she should look like me. Your Majesty is heroic and extraordinary. If I give birth to a prince, he should look like Your Majesty. That would be perfect."

Seeing the envy and longing in her eyes, Kangxi thought of the child who had passed away.

"Yes, we will have children."

"Of course I trust Your Majesty. Your Majesty, let's go have the baby quickly!"

Kangxi picked her up and carried her to the bedside, where they spent a passionate night together.

The next day, Wangshu received another reward from Emperor Kangxi. Since Consort Yi had given birth to a son, she also received a large reward, which surprised everyone in the harem and made them understand the extent of Consort Chun's favor.

Consort Rong couldn't help but sigh and mock herself: "Everyone says that the Emperor favored me back then, and I thought that was true favor. But compared to Consort Chun now, my favor seems ridiculous. It's such a pity. If Empress Hesheli were still alive, she would be so angry! It's a shame she died so young."

"Your Majesty, walls have ears, so be careful what you say."

Consort Rong scoffed, "There are no outsiders here. If I don't say a few words, they'll probably feel suffocated. Don't worry, nanny, my words won't get out."

Consort Rong may appear unassuming and unambitious in public, but that's not her true nature. Back in the day, she was far more straightforward than Consort Yi is now.

A true hero doesn't dwell on past glories!

In short, Wang Shu's favor with the emperor was obvious to everyone in the harem. Fortunately, Emperor Kangxi had a sense of propriety and would never do anything to favor one person exclusively. Wang Shu was also not an arrogant or troublesome person.

The relationship between the favored concubine and the other concubines in the harem was relatively harmonious.

Of course, this is partly due to Wang Shu's current lack of need to pay respects and her dislike of going out, as well as Kangxi's secret care and the meticulous care of Dai Jia's family.

Two days before the Lunar New Year.

Wang Shu: "Have the small kitchen prepare a soup and send it to the Qianqing Palace."

Su Mu: "Yes, Your Majesty."

When Kangxi received her soup, he drank it and couldn't help but laugh, saying, "Consort Chun should send the soup to Qianqing Palace, tidy up, and prepare to depart for Qixiang Palace."

Sending soup is tantamount to currying favor. Wang Shu didn't do it before because it was unnecessary. Given how often Kangxi came, if she tried to curry favor again, the concubines in the harem would definitely gang up on her.

The Qianqing Palace was not far from the Qixiang Palace, and Kangxi arrived quickly.

"Greetings, Your Majesty."

Kangxi led her into the house: "Bringing me soup, are you missing me?"

"Your Majesty is always on my mind, but I sent you the soup because I prepared a New Year's gift for you."

Kangxi Lai Le was interesting.

What is it?

"Please come with me to the study; the things are there."

Kangxi followed her into the study and saw a large wooden box on the workbench.

"Your Majesty, please open it and take a look. This was made by my own hands!"

Emperor Kangxi had no idea she had prepared this gift, so he was very excited. When he opened it, he found it was a clock.

At this time, there was no such thing as giving a clock as a gift being unlucky.

There weren't many clocks in the palace, but Wangshu had two, both of which had passed his inspection.

"You did this!"

Kangxi's tone was one of surprise and admiration!

Clocks originated from the West, and he has already arranged for craftsmen to learn the craft. They have made progress, but the success rate is hard to say.

There weren't many finished products.

Style?

It looks nice, but it's not very original.

The clock in front of me is different; it is elegant yet not ostentatious, which is rare. The background of the dial is a traditional Chinese ink painting, which he made in his spare time.
