Ignoring the colorful expressions on Li Jingshu, Nian Yunrong, and the others' faces, Geng Youran thought to himself,
"I have finally witnessed the birth of a new emperor."
After giving birth, Niohuru Wanru was exhausted and fainted, but fortunately, she did not suffer any major health problems.
Geng Youran returned to the courtyard with Xinyi's help.
Later, the emperor personally bestowed a name upon Niohuru Wanru's child, naming him 'Hongli'.
Hongli was very well-behaved from birth, and with the Mid-Autumn Festival so close, Yinzhen was very fond of the child.
The others in the mansion, however, were furious when they learned that Niohuru Wanru had given birth to a prince. But Yinzhen had surrounded Niohuru Wanru's courtyard so tightly that those who wanted to harm her had no chance.
Less than half a month after the peaceful period, earthquakes began to occur frequently in the south, which had a significant impact on the lives of local residents, causing serious damage to houses, granaries and other buildings.
Therefore, Emperor Kangxi specially dispatched the Fourth Prince Yinzhen and the Thirteenth Prince Yinxiang to provide disaster relief.
On the eve of his departure for the disaster area, Yinzhen made a special trip to Geng Youran's courtyard to visit her.
"The master will be heading to the disaster area with the thirteenth prince tomorrow. You should stay in the manor and rest during your pregnancy. If you need anything, just tell the princess."
"Sir, please take good care of yourself on this journey. After the earthquake, there may be epidemics and floods, so please bring plenty of medicine. Also, this is for you."
Geng Youran handed Yinzhen a notebook containing several different statistical tables that Geng Youran had made based on her memory.
"Master, this is what I usually use for bookkeeping. I think it could also be used for things like counting the number of people affected by disasters and the amount of money. Please take it; I hope it will be of some help to you."
Yinzhen took the notebook, opened it, flipped through a few pages, and found this method to be very practical.
"You Ran, you've done me a huge favor!"
Yinzhen left the courtyard after a short while.
Geng Youran returned to the bed and sighed deeply:
"Princess, the prince is a lucky man and will be alright."
Xinyi thought her princess was worried about the prince's safety, so she quickly comforted her.
But actually, Geng Youran was lamenting her own soft heart.
She shouldn't have interfered in such political matters, but because she didn't want Yinzhen to suffer any more trouble, she told him about this method.
Actually, she felt a little regretful, silently repeating to herself:
"I hope that Yinzhen will not doubt her origins because of this matter."
