"Your Majesty, what should we name the child?"
Mingxiu sat on the couch and asked Kangxi with some surprise.
Kangxi glanced at Mingxiu, then at his daughter who was sleeping soundly in his arms. "Chenghuan, my little darling will be named Chenghuan."
Mingxiu glanced at Kangxi in surprise. Was the meaning of this name what she thought it meant?
Mingxiu's eyes were burning and bright, which Kangxi naturally sensed, but he did not look up and just focused on the baby in his arms.
Mingxiu stared at Kangxi for a long time, but when she realized he wasn't responding, she blinked her eyes, which were a little sore from not moving for so long, and looked away.
She decided to take Kangxi's meaning for granted.
Thinking of this, Mingxiu happily stared at Xiaoyouyou in Kangxi's arms, "Chenghuan, when Mother's Xiaoyouyou has a name, she will be called Chenghuan. Xiao Chenghuan, hello, what a nice name."
Kangxi smiled slightly as he listened to Mingxiu's cheerful voice.
When Mingxiu finished her postpartum confinement, it was also time for her baby to turn one month old. This time, Mingxiu did not hold a grand celebration; she simply held a small one in her Yonghe Palace.
After all, she was a princess. Although Mingxiu didn't care, some people felt that a princess didn't need to have such a grand celebration, so Mingxiu didn't want to attract attention anymore and decided to have a small celebration instead.
Although it was a small event, Mingxiu prepared it very elaborately, except that all the guests were concubines from the harem.
Mingxiu also saw the Fourth Prince, Yinzhen, a tiny little boy holding the hand of the Imperial Noble Consort, looking around curiously.
It's fair and plump, clearly well-cared for; it seems Consort Tong has taken great care of it.
Mingxiu sighed. Perhaps because of Uya, Consort Tong had never allowed Yinzhen to come out for a stroll.
In addition, Mingxiu herself didn't like to go out, so she wasn't really familiar with the Fourth Prince. However, she saw Yinzhen, Yinzhi, Baocheng, Baoqing, and the other children chatting and laughing together.
It seems their relationship is not bad.
As Mingxiu was sizing up Yinzhen, Yinzhen also noticed Mingxiu's gaze.
The little dumpling smiled at Mingxiu, and Mingxiu greeted him gently before continuing with his work.
After the busy full moon banquet, Mingxiu sat on the couch and almost collapsed.
It's been so long since I've organized an event, and suddenly organizing one all at once is really taking a toll on my body.
Emperor Kangxi was busy with other matters, so only Crown Prince Yinreng and Mingxiu remained in the palace. Little Youyou had already been taken away by her wet nurse to rest; the child was exhausted and asleep after a long day.
Seeing that Mingxiu looked tired, Yinreng quickly picked up a teacup and poured her some water. He also pushed the pastries aside and said, "Mingxiu's mother, please eat something. Let me massage your shoulders." He then took off his shoes, got onto the bed, and gently massaged Mingxiu's shoulders.
Mingxiu was touched by the child's filial piety and did not stop him. She enjoyed Yinreng's service while drinking tea and eating pastries.
After a while, Mingxiu recovered and quickly told Yinreng to stop, since child labor should not be overused.
What if there's a strike?
Turning around, Mingxiu rubbed her hands and sat back down in the seat where Yinreng had sat down again, giving Mingxiu a silly grin.
Mingxiu looked at Yinreng's missing front tooth, his silly appearance, and his lisp, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
