Wanwan: "Did the Empress Dowager say the child looks like you?"
Wanwan glanced at the child, then at Kangxi, then at the child again, then at Kangxi again.
So far, Wanwan really can't see where the child resembles Emperor Kangxi.
Although Emperor Kangxi wasn't bad-looking, he had pockmarks on his face because he had smallpox and had acne scars.
Having acne scars on his face already reduced Kangxi's appearance by three points out of ten. Add to that the coin-tail hairstyle, and wow, he was down to only three points of good looks.
But look at your own child, so fair and tender, so soft and supple, how could Kangxi compare?
Wanwan didn't know why she had such thoughts; she just felt that Kangxi couldn't compare to her own child.
Emperor Kangxi said, "When the child was first brought out yesterday, the Empress Dowager did say that the child looks like me."
Wanwan's inner thoughts were simply: "Heh heh, I'll just listen to what you're saying. Whether you believe it or not is up to you."
Wanwan: "Really? I can't tell. Maybe it's because Yinyu is still too young and hasn't fully developed yet."
Wanwan said, "But Yinyu's skin does resemble mine, don't you think, Xuan Ye?"
Kangxi couldn't refute this point; she was so beautiful and delicate, she didn't look like a boy at all, and her skin did indeed resemble Wanwan's.
At this moment, a bad feeling suddenly came to Kangxi's mind: "Won't this child grow up to be like Wanwan?"
Wouldn't that be a disgrace to the Aisin Gioro family? If they looked like...
If it were a princess, Emperor Kangxi would be very pleased, as she could grow up to resemble Wanwan and be an unparalleled beauty.
But if a boy looks like Wanwan, then... well, those who know, know.
However, things are uncertain in the future. Kangxi silently comforted himself, thinking, what if he grows up to look like himself?
Xuan Ye said, "When I was a child, I left the palace to avoid smallpox. After entering the palace, I was raised by my grandmother. She is very familiar with what I looked like when I was a child. I thought that since my grandmother said that the child looks like me, he should look like me when he grows up."
Wanwan said, "That's possible. After all, children change a lot as they grow up. They say girls change a lot as they grow up, right? Maybe boys can change a lot too?"
When Kangxi heard Wanwan say that a man has changed a lot as he grows up, he was speechless and helpless. He didn't know why his beloved concubine always said things that were not true.
While they chatted, they watched as the child, Wanwan, sat for a while. Then, fearing that Wanwan might be sitting for too long and it would be bad for her health, Kangxi immediately made her lie down.
Emperor Kangxi said, "Lie down first."
Just as Wanwan lay down, while Kangxi was still holding the child, they suddenly heard "plop...plop...plop...".
Everyone was shocked, especially Kangxi and Wanwan, who were closest to each other. Of course, Kangxi was the most unfortunate one.
At this moment, Kangxi felt something warm in his palm. Although the child was still in swaddling clothes, ... cough cough.
Looking at Kangxi, he saw an incredulous expression, which was somewhat amusing, and he even burst out laughing.
Wanwan laughed.
Kangxi suddenly stared at Wanwan, who immediately cowered. She made a zipping motion with her hand over her mouth. I didn't laugh.
But Kangxi could see from her eyes that she was still mocking him.
At this moment, the wet nurse immediately took action.
Kangxi couldn't wait to hand over the pile of landmines he was holding.
Emperor Kangxi said, "Quickly change my second brother's clothes."
The wet nurse didn't stay in this room; instead, she took the Sixth Prince to the East Annex Hall, to change his room.
Besides, it's impossible for a wet nurse to exchange excrement for the Sixth Prince in front of Emperor Kangxi.
After Kangxi handed over the landmine, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness, it was still in the swaddling clothes; otherwise, it would have been in his hands.
Even though he didn't get it on his hands, he still felt uncomfortable, so he immediately got up to wash his hands.
Looking at Kangxi, who was so eager to wash his hands, Wanwan couldn't help but laugh again, and quite loudly at that.
Wanwan: "Haha, hahaha..."
Listening to the rain and wind, I didn't dare to laugh out loud, but it was still very hard to hold it in.
After all, they dared not laugh at the emperor's jokes.
After Kangxi finished washing his hands and came in, he looked at Wang Wan with a smile on his face.
He immediately said irritably, "Don't laugh too soon. You might experience many more things like this in the future."
Wanwan said, "We'll talk about the future later. For now, I'll just laugh and enjoy myself."
Emperor Kangxi had no way to deal with this, after all, it was a woman who had just given birth to his child, and he couldn't hit or scold her.
And you might not even be able to win an argument with them.
Wanwan remained lying in bed, smiling at Kangxi.
Wanwan: "Xuan Ye has gained another new experience, and it's his first time doing so."
Seeing Wanwan continue to tease and ridicule him, Kangxi suddenly had a wicked idea. In front of Tingyu and Tingfeng, he kissed the prince on the lips and even made a "pop" sound.
Wanwan was stunned. Didn't Emperor Kangxi have any pride?
And even if Kangxi didn't care about his reputation, didn't she? How could she kiss herself in front of Tingyu and Tingfeng?
They kissed, fine, but why did they make noise? How is she supposed to manage Jingren Palace now?
Did she want to watch Tingyu and Tingfeng laugh at her? No, maybe they were already laughing at her right now, but they weren't saying it out loud, laughing at her in their hearts, unaware of it.
While Tingyu and Tingfeng were inwardly bursting with laughter upon witnessing this scene, they remained outwardly composed, behaving themselves calmly and quietly as they quietly withdrew.
Listening to the Rain and the Wind: You two can do as you please, just pretend we don't exist.
Wanwan: "You, you, you! How could you treat me like this in front of the palace maids? Don't you have any dignity? Don't I have any dignity?"
Seeing Wanwan's stunned and anxious yet helpless expression, Kangxi suddenly felt that he had won the round.
Kangxi said, "Didn't you laugh at me first? Besides, I didn't laugh at you; instead, I gave you a loving kiss."
What to do? The more the author writes, the more they feel like the character's personality is going awry.
Wanwan: To hell with loving kisses.
Wanwan said, "You can't do that in front of Tingyu and Tingfeng. They'll be laughing at you behind your back, and how am I supposed to manage Jingren Palace after that?"
Wanwan said this with a hint of grievance and embarrassment, her voice growing softer and softer.
Emperor Kangxi said, "Since my Imperial Noble Consort took charge of the inner palace, she has been very organized and has never made a mistake. How could she not manage a small Jingren Palace?"
What should I do? My throat is still not better. It feels like there are hairs growing inside my throat. If I take a deep breath, it feels even worse.
The author would like to advise everyone to wear masks when going out. The author doesn't even know how they caught a cold or what; they haven't gone anywhere and don't know how they caught it. If it's just a cold, that's fine, but if it's a goat's disease, then it must have been transmitted from someone else, right?
