Kangxi noticed that Mingxiu was hiding something from him.
"Take it out. What's so special that I can't know about it?" Kangxi looked at Mingxiu with some confusion.
Mingxiu pursed her lips slightly, somewhat unwilling, and wanted to struggle a little longer.
"Your Majesty, it's really nothing. Let's go out quickly; we've been here for quite a while now." Mingxiu pulled Kangxi along, preparing to leave.
Kangxi frowned as he looked at Mingxiu, nodded, and took advantage of Mingxiu turning around to snatch the item from behind her.
Mingxiu was caught off guard and the item was indeed snatched away. By the time she realized what was happening and tried to grab it back, Kangxi had already opened it and started reading.
Mingxiu closed her eyes, preparing to face what was to come.
Kangxi frowned slightly as he looked at the short line of text above, his expression complicated as he looked at Mingxiu: "This is what you don't want me to know."
Mingxiu lowered her head and did not answer, but she tacitly agreed.
"Why?" Kangxi looked at Mingxiu. "I want to know why."
“There’s no reason why. Even if you knew about this matter concerning the Emperor, it wouldn’t make any difference, so just pretend you don’t know,” Mingxiu replied softly.
Looking at Mingxiu with her head down, Kangxi's face gradually showed a hint of anger: "What, do you want to separate from me that much?"
Mingxiu helplessly raised her head and looked at Kangxi: "Your Majesty, you should know that it's not because of this."
Mingxiu was at a loss for words, so she could only direct her anger at the system, which was somewhere out there.
This thing had to come at this exact moment, of all times.
"But I want to know your thoughts." When Kangxi saw the contents above, he was also at a loss. Before he could have any other emotions, he was angered by Mingxiu's evasive attitude.
Thinking about this, Kangxi shifted his gaze to the paper in his hand, which stated that the space originally belonged only to Mingxiu, and would be taken back immediately after this life ended.
However, once they are bound to the True Dragon Emperor, as long as they accumulate enough merit, the space will not be taken back, and they can become members of the Time and Space Bureau, and then go to various time and space to do missions.
"Your Majesty, do you know what this means?" Mingxiu asked Kangxi earnestly.
Emperor Kangxi nodded.
"Does Your Majesty know what this means? It means that if we both agree to this condition, then we will be together forever, for all eternity."
Mingxiu's voice was somewhat hoarse.
"Of course I know, do you understand now?" Kangxi looked at Mingxiu.
Mingxiu closed her eyes briefly: "I've told you before, my hometown practices monogamy. If two people love each other, there's no room for a third person."
Kangxi was taken aback, but he roughly understood what Mingxiu meant.
"Your Majesty understands now. I have come to this era, so naturally I must follow the mainstream of this era and have no intention of changing it. However, I cannot allow myself to become a resentful woman confined to my chambers. I admit that I like you very much, but apart from the characteristics of this era, I cannot accept my husband having three wives and four concubines. Do you understand?"
After Mingxiu finished speaking, she left immediately without waiting for Kangxi to speak.
Kangxi stood there in a daze, unaware that he had already left the space.
All I could think about were her last words.
Neither of them got a good night's rest.
Mingxiu sat in the garden, looking up at the sky outside.
She didn't know how Kangxi would treat her afterward, but she wouldn't regret speaking her mind.
She liked the emperor, but her feelings were mixed with many other things and weren't entirely pure.
Here, she only needs to protect her heart to ensure she won't get hurt much, but this is also because her affection for Kangxi has always remained.
But if they really do end up together for a long time, then this feeling is a ticking time bomb, and you never know when it will explode.
This man was no ordinary man; he was the emperor, Emperor Kangxi, who had been accustomed to having multiple wives and concubines since childhood. Historically, he had quite a few concubines of his own.
If they stay together for a long time, will he see the person he likes coming over, or will he have three wives and four concubines?
Will I become someone I don't recognize by then?
Mingxiu didn't want to become like this, so the best way was to make things clear.
It's just a pity for Chenghuan. I wonder if, after this incident, Kangxi will continue to love Chenghuan as before.
Therefore, the most important thing is to ensure that Chenghuan and Yinreng maintain a good relationship.
Sure enough, men are all unreliable; the most reliable person is still your son.
Mingxiu sighed twice; in fact, she really wanted to be a mission taker in the Time and Space Bureau.
Those who complete tasks can go anywhere and play. Why can't this ridiculous system be her own, instead of having to involve someone else?
(If it weren't for the game designer saying that Kangxi was a rare talent, and therefore delegating this requirement, you wouldn't even have a chance to get close to him.)
Mingxiu's direct way of expressing her unhappiness is through eating. However, since Kangxi appears in her space from time to time, Mingxiu no longer likes to enter it.
We just went outside and ordered some food.
Fortunately, Mingxiu had figured out all the food beforehand, so there is no shortage of food now.
However, Mingxiu, sitting in Consort Hui's palace, felt quite helpless as she listened to what Consort Hui said to her.
"Sister, isn't it too early to find a Crown Princess for the First Prince?" Mingxiu said helplessly.
How old is Yinzhi this year? Fourteen, okay?
Consort Hui strongly disagreed: "It's too early. Besides, we're not getting married right now. We need to screen people first. Otherwise, all the good ones will be taken, and you won't have a chance to choose."
Mingxiu looked at Consort Hui with a somewhat bewildered expression, not understanding why it was necessary.
They're princes, after all; they shouldn't have trouble finding good wives.
However, seeing Consort Hui's motherly attitude, Myung-soo still didn't plan to wait for her.
While accompanying her in the room for a whole morning to choose, Mingxiu recalled that Yinzhi's wife was the daughter of Minister Ke'erkun, of the Irgen Gioro clan. Mingxiu looked in the portrait and found her name. She looked like a very gentle woman.
Mingxiu looked at the portrait of Irgen Gioro and sighed.
It's a pity that because Yinzhi always wanted a legitimate son, he had too many children, which weakened his health, and he died young.
Men are all the same. Mingxiu felt irritated thinking about the fate of the Irgen Gioro clan, and even the children seemed unpleasant to her.
When Yinreng came over in the evening, he clearly saw the unfriendly look in his mother's eyes, and even Chenghuan next to him could feel the tense atmosphere.
