Sherry quickly sat up straight, feeling somewhat embarrassed and at a loss.
Emperor Kangxi smiled slightly: "How does that fruit taste?"
"The taste is of course excellent, Your Majesty, I thank you for the gift!" Shirley said politely and calmly.
Emperor Kangxi walked over step by step with a smile.
Sherry's face was a little pale. Kangxi looked at her, and Sherry lowered her eyes.
But she felt a strong gaze fixed on her lips.
After a long pause, Kangxi spoke gently, "You don't need to worry about those things. Just take good care of yourself!"
Sherry was stunned for a moment before she realized what was happening: "Yes, Your Majesty, Your Majesty... I take my leave!"
"...Hmm!" After a long while, Kangxi responded.
Sherry calmly left the Qianqing Palace and only completely relaxed after returning to the Yuqing Palace.
Oh, how many eyes were watching in the Qianqing Palace!
At night, after Shirley took a bath and changed her clothes.
Yuebai was giving her a back massage, and Xueli felt so comfortable that she drifted off to sleep.
I was thinking of getting cupping done, but it hurts a bit...
While she was still thinking, Yuebai softly fainted.
Sherry was startled, and as she turned her head, she was tapped on the neck.
Sherry's spirit saw a female bodyguard carrying Yuebai out.
Behind the screen, a man stood with his hands behind his back, staring intently at her.
Sherry almost couldn't keep up the act.
Try to calm yourself down and pretend to faint.
The man walked over step by step, sat on the edge of the bed, and began to trace her eyebrows, lips, and nose...
His breathing suddenly became heavy.
Her movements became increasingly hurried, and Shirley's brows furrowed slightly, her helpless appearance endearing.
The man bent down and kissed and traced the lips little by little.
But his hands didn't stop moving.
A few faint sounds came from behind...
The sound seemed unusually loud in the quiet night!
Sherry blushed and felt hot, trying her best to pretend she didn't know anything. She had no choice but to confront this experienced driver!
The man's gaze was fixed intently on the petals he was licking and entwining, and Sherry could no longer keep up the act.
Feigning awakening with dazed eyes, she pushed and exclaimed in surprise, "Ah~ Who—!"
Night fell.
The air is becoming increasingly humid.
Sherry's brows furrowed slightly as she breathed softly.
She pretended not to know, and as she pushed him away, her eyes welled up with tears and she trembled uncontrollably.
A soft chuckle escaped from the person in the shadows.
Sherry hugged the blanket tightly, lost in it...
The next day, Sherry woke up feeling refreshed.
Sherry treated it all as a dream.
He inquired about the children in the manor, and then went with the Third Princess to see her younger siblings.
After the little girl became an older sister.
She always puts on a serious face and acts like a little adult.
So cute!
Sherry's expression remained unchanged the next day, which both amused and annoyed Kangxi.
After observing for a few days, she understood: the Crown Princess did not believe anyone would dare to act recklessly in the palace.
So both master and servant thought they had been dreaming...
Kangxi: ...
Ignoring his anger, Shirley pulled Yinreng aside and began to make love to him.
Yinreng wanted to find Suo'etu, but Xue Li thought he was too idle.
She dragged him into nightly revelry.
After all, the Crown Prince was staying at the Crown Princess's residence, so even if someone had ears, they wouldn't be able to hear any gossip.
The Crown Prince suddenly realized that he had been enjoying a period of peace and prosperity recently, and his father, the Emperor, hadn't said anything about it.
When he gets busy, his father feels that everything about him is wrong.
Yinreng himself was getting a little annoyed!
The year passed quickly, and it was the 39th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign (1700).
Emperor Kangxi also bestowed titles upon Consort Liang, Consort Xiao Tong, and Consort He.
Sherry was so busy her head was buzzing.
I think being the mother of the nation must be quite arduous. By the way, she is currently in the reserve position of mother of the nation.
Sherry followed her routine every day. The family property, the rewards from Emperor Kangxi, and Yinreng's private treasury were more than enough for her to do as she pleased.
Sherry focused all her energy on the children, and would occasionally pull Yinreng aside to read to them.
After all, he was used to being the center of attention.
It was obvious to the naked eye that Kangxi had become wary of him.
Moreover, the princes seemed to have sensed something from Kangxi's occasional signals.
Everyone stared at the crown prince, joining forces to dig a pit for him.
It all depends on his precautions and methods.
Sherry didn't bother to ask any of this; she had already reminded him.
It would be best if he could ascend the throne, since he still has a son!
Speaking of which, the illegitimate sons of Yuqing Palace have also entered the Imperial Study.
Sydney treats everyone equally, but she is not close to them.
Because of Li Jia's passing, Hong Yan and Hong Xi lived somewhat cautiously.
She often tried to curry favor with Yinreng.
At this moment, Kangxi felt extremely disgusted with his two brothers.
However, Sherry also had a moment of spiritual discovery that the sickly Hong Yan was actually very intelligent, but his physical condition was poor.
He was the one who taught Hongxi to act cute with Yinreng, and Xue Li didn't bother to ask about it.
If you want to live a good life, then all the hard work and struggle is understandable.
But if he crosses the line, Sydney will make him report according to the historical process.
Moreover, Li Jia's actions are a ticking time bomb!
People are generous with what others have given them.
If it affects oneself, that's a different story altogether.
Sherry wasn't worried at all.
Yinreng was working diligently in the backyard, while Xue Li was playing a cat-and-mouse game with Kangxi.
Kangxi may have found it amusing, as he enjoyed being a thief.
Because of the dragon's aura, Sherry will cooperate with him.
The next day, as the sun rose, Sherry looked at him with calm and unwavering eyes.
It was as if they weren't the ones who had been passionately entwined the night before.
Of course, Kangxi also took the time to stroll around the inner palace.
The newly favored concubine, Consort Xiang, is pregnant.
Sherry is now staring at the adorable Yinxiang.
