Chapter 168 Giving birth



As the days drew to a close, Mingxiu felt increasingly anxious, and her mind kept replaying various tragedies that had occurred during childbirth.

In particular, what if she has a difficult childbirth, or doesn't have the strength to give birth, or what if someone tries to harm her while she's giving birth?

Mingxiu felt extremely anxious and couldn't sleep or eat properly. She gradually became haggard. Her servants were heartbroken to see their mistress looking so haggard, but they didn't know how to comfort her.

Mingxiu's nervousness caused all the palace staff in Yonghe Palace to become somewhat nervous as well.

Green Bamboo was also extremely nervous, ordering people to thoroughly investigate everything in the palace three times a day.

I'm afraid someone might take advantage of the situation and slip in something they shouldn't.

Kangxi had already sent over several wet nurses, and Mingxiu picked two of them that looked honest and had the rest sent back.

Mingxiu sat by the window, looking at the sky outside with a worried expression, wondering if she was about to give birth.

Mingxiu felt she was being a bit sentimental; she missed her parents.

I wonder how her parents get along with that Hesheli Mingxiu.

Did Mom and Dad realize that their daughter's soul has been replaced?

Hopefully they won't find out. She's already here, and her parents will only be sad if they do.

But when she thought about how her parents couldn't tell, Mingxiu felt a little wronged, though she didn't know what she was feeling wronged about.

I hope Hesheli Mingxiu will treat her parents well.

Many years have passed, and she's not young anymore in her modern body. I wonder if Hesheli Mingxiu has found someone to marry.

Has she had children? Does she miss her brother and father here?

Mingxiu's mind wandered to all sorts of questions, and the more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became.

I shook my head, trying to clear my mind of those thoughts.

I took a deep breath and tried to pull myself together.

It's just having a baby, no problem. If it doesn't work, she can just call the system over to scan the surroundings for her.

If there are any problems, the system will definitely help her.

So don't worry, don't worry.

Mingxiu patted her chest, trying to comfort herself.

While she was thinking, Mingxiu saw Yinreng enter through the gate of Yonghe Palace. Instantly, she forgot all her thoughts and got up to go to the door to greet Yinreng.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I have arrived!" The seven-year-old child already exuded the majesty of royalty.

Every move they make is governed by etiquette and manners, making them a pleasure to behold.

Mingxiu's heart was filled with joy as she looked at the child who had grown up.

"Come here, are you tired from studying today? Your mother has prepared a lot of food, all of which are Bao Cheng's favorites," Mingxiu said gently as she looked at the approaching child and touched his hair.

Yinreng smiled. He liked this gesture that showed closeness. He felt happy every time Mingxiu touched him like this. "The tutors are all so nice to me. I feel that studying is very easy. I don't know what's wrong with you lately, brother. You seem to be doing very well in your studies, even though your classes have been easy lately."

Yinreng frowned, wondering about Yinti's recent behavior.

Mingxiu's lips twitched; she thought she probably knew what Yinti was thinking.

Because this brat, for some reason, mainly suggested taking the exam to the Grand Tutor.

There is an exam after each course, or an exam every now and then, although there is a day off after each exam.

But who likes exams?

Only a top student like him isn't worried. When the princes go to the Imperial Study to study and find out that the idea for this exam was proposed by Yinreng, they'll hate Yinreng to death.

Mingxiu sighed, shook her head, and still didn't say anything.

Exams were already commonplace for her, after all, she had been taking exams since she was a child.

So even though she knew the system had brought their bad exam habits here, she just watched them with amusement. Anyway, it had nothing to do with her; she didn't need to take exams.

Mingxiu thought about how every prince would have to go through the painful exams to study in the Imperial Study, and she felt a strange sense of satisfaction.

Indeed, happiness built on the suffering of others can make one even happier.

Mingxiu was secretly pleased with herself as she led Yinreng over to wash his hands and prepare for lunch. He had to go to school in the afternoon, and to avoid being sleepy, he needed to take a nap at noon, so they had to eat quickly and not waste any time.

Heaven knows how shocked Mingxiu was when she learned that the system had actually given the examination system to Yinreng, and that Yinreng had actually used this system in their studies.

Not only did Emperor Kangxi promote this system, but all students thereafter had to undergo this kind of examination.

Tsk tsk tsk.

Mingxiu watched with schadenfreude as Yinreng ate his meal with relish, feeling a deep sense of pity for his future.

If only one student knew who proposed this system.

Mingxiu felt that she could still be expected to be severely criticized by students from all over the country.

But it's also a good thing. She had seen some before and knew that some students had never taken an exam before and had never experienced an exam of this scale.

It's easy to lose your composure during exams, so since exams have become a daily occurrence, they'll definitely be less likely to lose their composure during future exams.

Moreover, this would better reveal whether they have regressed, encouraging each student to study more actively, and also serving the purpose of the court in promoting talent.

Now that they're starting to promote talented people, their fate of closing themselves off from the world will surely be changed.
