Ituma Shushu's eyes reddened as soon as she finished speaking.
Yongzheng paused for a moment, then gently patted Ituma Shushu's hand and comforted her, "Consort Shu, you don't need to worry too much. You have the Imperial Physician Sun and Physician Wang here."
Moreover, the birthing nurses that I ordered Su Peisheng to arrange this time are the same ones who helped you deliver Hongxu and Hongxuan last time.
"Last time, Consort Shu, you were able to safely give birth to Hongxu and Hongxuan. This time, you will surely be able to safely deliver the two children in your womb as well."
Ituma Shushu wiped away the tears from her eyes with a handkerchief and said with a touched expression, "I felt Your Majesty's kindness when I was pregnant with your child. Whether it was the Dong Mama and the others at the beginning, or the several maternity nurses later, they were all the ones who served me when I was pregnant with Hongxu and Hongxuan."
After a moment of contemplation, Yongzheng solemnly said, "I promise you, I will have someone bring Hongzhao, Hongxu, and Hongxuan to Jiuzhou Qingyan tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Ituma Shushu breathed a sigh of relief, seemingly feeling much more at ease. Then she said softly, "Your Majesty, tomorrow I will have the eunuchs, as well as Granny Gu and Granny Rong, who are with Hongzhao, Hongxu, and Hongxuan go to Jiuzhou Qingyan with them. As for the palace maids with them, I will have them all stay at Qingyun Yaxuan."
However, Your Majesty, Hongxu and Hongxuan are still quite young, and they will definitely cause trouble if they suddenly arrive in an unfamiliar place.
"You should let the two of them live with Hongzhao. With Hongzhao around, they'll gradually get used to it and stop causing trouble."
Upon hearing this, Yongzheng nodded and said, "Yes, then let the three brothers sleep together so they can look after each other. Two nannies and a few eunuchs will be enough, and Jiuzhou Qingyan will have no shortage of other servants to attend to them."
Ituma Shushu pondered for a moment, then continued softly, "I will have those rabbits put in cages and brought over tomorrow. Hongxu and Hongxuan will use these rabbits to keep them company when they are bored."
The three little foals, Lidong, Xiaoxue, and Daxue, have grown up and are no longer suitable to be kept in Qingyun Yaxuan.
"Your Majesty, could you please have these three foals sent to your horse farm to be raised temporarily? Once Hongzhao, Hongxu, and Hongxuan have grown up, they can raise them themselves."
After listening to Ituma Shushu's words, which seemed to be her last words, Yongzheng's expression turned a little somber. He said gently, "Even if Consort Shu hadn't mentioned it now, I had planned to keep those three foals in my horse farm for the time being."
"Consort Shu, the most important thing for you now is to let go of your burdens and focus on your pregnancy and childbirth."
Ituma Shushu's brows relaxed, and she said softly, "Your Majesty, rest assured, I am now much more at ease and will no longer be anxious."
Seeing her cheerful expression, Yongzheng knew that Ituma Shushu was telling the truth.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "How about this, in a few days, I will have Consort Shu's mother come to the palace to keep you company for a few days."
Ituma Shushu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled broadly and said, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
After spending some more time with Ituma Shushu, Yongzheng left Qingyun Yaxuan.
Watching Yongzheng's departing figure, Ituma Shushu, who had been holding her breath, could finally relax.
It was really not easy. You know, she had been thinking about what she said to Yongzheng tonight for a long time.
After pondering these words, Ituma Shushu would hide from the group of people serving her and secretly practice her facial expressions and tone of voice.
She wouldn't dare say these things to Yongzheng without practicing properly, after all, she wasn't Consort Yun, who had acting skills at the level of an award-winning actress.
However, Ituma Shushu only found out after the royal physician confirmed that she was pregnant with twins, and on the same day, she discovered the message "[Dragon Qi: ***][↑]" on the virtual transparent panel of "Dawn Mall".
That's when the idea of sending the Seventh Prince Hongzhao, the Eighth Prince Hongxu, and the Ninth Prince Hongxuan to Jiuzhou Qingyan came about.
Originally, her plan was simply to let the Seventh Prince Hongzhao stay in Qingyun Yaxuan for another year, and then send him to the princes' residence after she safely gave birth to the Tenth and Eleventh Princes.
So Ituma Shushu began preparing from that time onwards for sending the three princes to Jiuzhou Qingyan for a period of time.
Previously, she wanted to compare the childbirth conditions of pregnant women in this era to see if Consort Yu and Consort Ning had increased their chances of a safe delivery because they took a fertility pill.
So at that time, she specifically inquired about the conditions of other pregnant women during childbirth, and one person, Ituma Shushu, left a particularly deep impression on her.
That was Princess Heshuo Wenke, the eighth princess of Emperor Kangxi. She died shortly after giving birth to twin daughters.
Ituma Shushu initially thought it was because the Eighth Princess, "Princess Heshuo Wenke," was quite young when she gave birth to her twin daughters.
Because people in ancient times generally married at a relatively young age, it was later discovered that this was not the case, as she was already 23 years old when she gave birth to her twin daughters.
It was through this chance encounter that Ituma Shushu learned that, in the eyes of those people, Emperor Kangxi was also a loving father.
Because Emperor Kangxi had foreseen the discomfort and hardships his daughters would encounter when they married into Mongolia, he postponed their marriages as much as possible.
This is to ensure that the princesses are able to cope with all the changes after marriage and handle things more effectively.
Therefore, the eight princesses of Emperor Kangxi were all between the ages of eighteen and twenty-two.
Princess Heshuo Wenke was the younger sister of Prince Yi, the thirteenth prince, Yinxiang.
Besides his younger sister, Princess Heshuo Wenge, the thirteenth prince, Prince Yi, also had another younger sister from the same mother, Princess Heshuo Dunke.
She returned to her maternal home in the capital from Mongolia in the year that the Eighth Princess, "Princess Heshuo Wenshuo," passed away.
Unfortunately, she fell seriously ill shortly after arriving in the capital and passed away not long after.
In other words, Prince Yi, the thirteenth prince, lost two of his own sisters in the same year.
Given the relationship between Emperor Yongzheng and his thirteenth son, Prince Yi, Yinxiang, Ituma Shushu believes that he was also deeply impressed by the matter of the Eighth Princess, "Princess Heshuo Wenke".
"Your Majesty, it's late. Please go back and rest."
Seeing that the Emperor had already left Qingyun Yaxuan, Consort Shu still lingered, chasing after his departing figure, unwilling to leave.
Xia Ju and Dong Mei couldn't help but exchange a worried glance. After a moment, Xia Ju whispered a reminder.
If Ituma Shushu knew what the two of them were thinking, she would definitely be muttering to herself: This is such a huge misunderstanding.
At this moment, Ituma Shushu quickly came to her senses after hearing Xia Ju's reminder.
She said softly, "Yes, you may attend to me and help me rest."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Xia Ju and Dong Mei, supporting Ituma Shushu, responded.
