The next day, when Mingxiu woke up, it was already bright daylight. Mingxiu looked at the sky, swallowed, and felt her throat was dry and sore.
"Green bamboo, green bamboo"...
Mingxiu was stunned by her own voice; how could it be so hoarse? For some reason, it reminded her of Baojuan. Baojuan.
Mingxiu twitched her lips, and just then, Green Bamboo heard Mingxiu's voice and walked in.
Seeing that Mingxiu was awake, she quickly poured a glass of water and handed it to her. Mingxiu took the glass and drank the water. Only then did she feel that her throat was better.
"What time is it?"
"It's almost lunchtime, Your Highness. The Crown Prince and the Princess are waiting for you to have lunch." Green Bamboo said obediently, her face slightly flushed as she looked at the marks that Mingxiu had inadvertently revealed on her body.
Upon hearing this, Mingxiu quickly asked Lüzhu to help her wash up. When she came out, she found that not only Yinreng and Chenghuan were there, but also Kangxi. The three of them were sitting together, doing something unknown.
Mingxiu walked over curiously and peeked inside. She saw the three of them playing with Chenghuan's cards, which Mingxiu had specially made for Chenghuan to recognize colors and patterns.
Mingxiu looked at Chenghuan's somewhat resigned expression, and then at the happy looks on Kangxi and Yinreng's faces, and was speechless.
Is this what they mean by a man dying as a teenager?
Just then, Yinreng sensed someone in front of him and looked up. He quickly put down the card in his hand and said, "Your Majesty, you're up. It's almost lunchtime."
Upon hearing the sound, Kangxi quickly put down the card in his hand, picked up Chenghuan, stood up, and looked around, refusing to look at Mingxiu.
Seeing his guilty look, Mingxiu smiled helplessly and didn't bring up what had just happened between them.
During the Lunar New Year, everyone usually takes a holiday. Everything else is fine, except for Emperor Kangxi, who probably only got a few days off during the Lunar New Year.
Kangxi rarely gets to relax for a few days, so let him be a little childish.
Seeing that it was still snowing heavily outside and the area around Yonghe Palace was covered in snow, Mingxiu got excited and pulled Yinreng and Kangxi to go build a snowman.
Poor Chenghuan was too young to play, so she could only stand by and watch as Luzhu held her and they built a snowman.
Although Yinreng is a year older this year and should no longer play these things, there have never been such rules in Mingxiu's palace, so Yinreng only persisted for a while and soon Mingxiu started playing with him.
However, seeing the mother and son having so much fun, and Kangxi constantly calling him to come over, he couldn't resist joining in their game after a while.
Chenghuan, watching from the side, stretched out her hand and cried out, wanting to go out and play. However, Lüzhu wouldn't let her go out no matter what. In the end, she had no choice but to grab a little bit of snow for her to hold and play with.
Cheng Huan happily squeezed the snowflakes in her hands, even though they were a little cold. But hearing the cheerful laughter coming from the three people in front of her, Cheng Huan laughed happily herself.
Yonghe Palace exudes a sense of tranquility and peace.
When it was time to have lunch, the three of them finally managed to build a snowman.
After several years of practice, the snowmen they built finally weren't so ugly anymore.
Mingxiu looked at their snowman with satisfaction.
Emperor Kangxi and Yinreng were very satisfied with their masterpiece, especially Emperor Kangxi, who did not expect that his first work would be so beautiful.
Mingxiu could only lament that she didn't have a camera to take a picture of the snowman and preserve it.
He could only sigh casually, "Alas, it's a pity it will melt in a couple of days and there's no way to preserve its appearance." After saying that, he secretly looked up at the father and son.
The father and son exchanged a glance, both looking thoughtful.
