At the dinner table, Kangxi watched Wanwan eat, one bite after another, which made him feel a little hungry. However, he had encountered this situation many times over the years and had developed a certain immunity to it.
Wanwan looked at Kangxi and said, "Xuanye, are you really not going to eat any? It's delicious."
Emperor Kangxi, however, was able to resist the urge, saying, "I am not hungry."
Wanwan said, "Okay, since you don't want to eat, I won't force you," and then continued to devote herself to her great cause of cooking.
After finishing his meal, Kangxi helped Wanwan walk around the room a few times before going to bed to rest.
As Kangxi helped Wanwan walk, he said, "Now that Consort Yi has given birth to a son, I am hoping that you will give birth to this child well."
Wanwan: "Really? Then why doesn't Your Majesty go and see your Consort Yi?"
After hearing this, Kangxi realized that he had said the wrong thing again. How could he use another woman's name in Jingren Palace?
No, not just her name, you can't even mention it. During the months Wanwan was pregnant, she was already quite irritable and sensitive.
Emperor Kangxi said, "I misspoke. I was thinking that you should give me a child. I shouldn't have mentioned other people."
Hearing Kangxi so smoothly admit his mistakes, you can tell he must have said those words countless times.
Wanwan: "Good to know. Okay, I'm tired. I don't want to move around anymore. I want to sleep."
Kangxi said, "Alright, then go to sleep."
With Wanwan pregnant, the two of them naturally couldn't do much.
Originally, Wanwan was pregnant and should not have allowed Kangxi to stay overnight at Jingren Palace, but Kangxi liked Wanwan. In addition, since the Empress Dowager did not speak up, no one in the harem dared to say that the emperor was breaking the rules.
Thus, this rule was broken by Emperor Kangxi.
next day
Yinzhen: "Empress Mother, I've come to see you. Why are you sleeping again?"
Yinzhen was still a child, so no one said anything even though he entered Wanwan's bedroom.
Looking at his mother, who was still fast asleep, Yinzhen felt that she could sleep even better than he could.
But he's still a child, so why can his mother sleep even more than him?
Even though he had a younger brother, his mother slept a lot during the day and at night. He couldn't understand why.
However, looking at her sleeping mother's face and her growing belly, she couldn't help but gently place her little hand on her mother's belly.
Yinzhen said, "Little brother, you must be good."
In fact, Wanwan had already woken up when Yinzhen called her, but she did not open her eyes.
If she opened her eyes, Yinzhen would know that he was awake and would definitely cling to her again. He was very tired, no, mainly because she was tired.
Pretending to be asleep is a great option. It avoids having to deal with Yinzhen and makes things easier for oneself, so why not?
Feeling Yinzhen's small hand stroking her belly, she didn't open her eyes and just lay there like a corpse.
Yinzhen: "Empress Mother, Empress Mother, are you awake yet?"
While listening to Yinzhen's shouts, Wanwan pretended to be asleep; she didn't want to wake up.
Yinzhen looked at her and saw that she was still asleep, even though he was calling her "Empress Mother." He thought to himself that his "Empress Mother" could really sleep.
Yinzhen said, "Empress Mother, the sun is already high in the sky, aren't you getting up? Your son is already up, if you don't get up, you'll be laughed at."
Wanwan said: I don't want to get up, I want to continue lying in bed.
Seeing that his mother was not moving, Yinzhen climbed to the edge of the bed and continued to mutter, "Mother, you have no idea how early my second brother gets up? He gets up shortly after 3 a.m. and doesn't eat breakfast until Father Emperor finishes his morning court session."
Yinzhen said, "I've been studying all this time, it's so tiring. Will my son be like my second brother in the future?"
Seeing that his mother didn't move, Yinzhen wasn't too concerned. After all, he had encountered this situation many times before, so he continued to mutter to himself.
Yinzhen asked, "Empress Mother, when do you think I'll be able to go to school like my second brother?"
"I feel sorry for my second brother because he gets up so early and is so tired. If I have to live like that in the future, Mother Empress, you must plead with Father Emperor."
Yinzhen thought, "Wait, I should be having a younger brother soon. Then I can make up an excuse to take care of him, and then I won't have to work as hard as my second brother."
Young Yinzhen, because he was close to his second brother, was afraid that he would live such a miserable life in the future after seeing his brother's miserable days.
Yinzhen said, "Empress Mother, I won't be coming back tonight. I'll sleep with my second brother."
Yinzhen said, "I have no one to play with here. You sleep all day long and eat all day long. It's so boring. I'm with my second brother. At least my second brother and eldest brother can play with me for a while."
Yinzhen said, “So, Mother Empress, not only today, but I’ll probably be with my second brother for the next few days as well. Don’t miss me too much; I’ll still come to see you often.”
Wanwan: Can someone take this chatterbox away from me? I'll be eternally grateful to him.
Wasn't the historical Yinzhen a man of few words? Who can tell him who this chatterbox really is?
He kept nagging her. Even a normal person would find it annoying if he kept nagging, let alone a pregnant woman.
I can't even lose my temper? No, who says I can't? He's clearly my own son. What's wrong with me beating him up, let alone losing my temper?
Wanwan: "Have you said enough?"
Yinzhen said, "And also, Empress Mother..." Before he could finish his words of confirmation, she heard his Empress Mother speak.
So he happily called out, "Empress Mother, you're awake! Your son thought you'd sleep until the afternoon!"
Wanwan said, "If I don't wake up soon, my head will be filled with your nagging voice."
Wanwan said, "Little Four."
Yinzhen: "Your son is here, what's wrong, Mother?"
Wanwan: "Your mother is pregnant, you know that, right?"
Yinzhen said, "Your son knows. Not only does your son know that Your Majesty is pregnant with your little brother, but your son also knows that your little brother will be born soon."
Wanwan: "Do you know how long your mother sleeps every day?"
Yinzhen: "I know, Mother. What's wrong?"
Wanwan's voice suddenly rose, "You know that, yet you still say so much. I was having a perfectly normal conversation, and you've woken me up."
Who can understand being woken up by someone who was sleeping soundly? She was sleeping peacefully when he woke her up before he even came in, and then he kept talking nonstop until her mind was completely muddled.
Yinzhen was also startled by his brother and mother's loud voice. "I didn't mean it. You didn't wake up when I said that to you before."
