In the golden autumn of October, the fruit trees in the orchard ripen. These trees were cultivated by the fruit farmers so that the fruit can be both ornamental and edible.
Hojo and his children picked fruit here.
Chunfen strode over and whispered a few words in Hezhuo's ear. Hezhuo's eyes flickered: "Just give him the usual rewards."
He Zhuo used the excuse of his grandmother's death to observe a vegetarian diet for three months, which also meant he did not share a room with Yin Zhi for three months. Now it was time to end it.
That evening, He Zhuo sent someone to invite Yin Zhi to his courtyard.
A month later, Hezhuo announced her pregnancy. Everyone was busy preparing to return to their residences. Emperor Kangxi returned to the palace, and naturally, all the princes and nobles had to return to their residences as well.
He Zhuo stayed at Qinyuan, citing her recent pregnancy as the reason that it was not advisable for her to move.
Only four-year-old Hongtong was left behind; Xiaozhenbao was sent back to the mansion. He Zhuo told her to go back so he could get information from the mansion at any time.
They managed to fool them.
The children would visit her every few days, as would Yinzhi, which was a sweet trouble. Hezhuo just wanted to focus on her pregnancy in peace.
Before they knew it, it was New Year's Day, and He Zhuo returned to his residence to celebrate.
Because of the various discomforts during pregnancy, including frequent vomiting, the imperial physician advised her to rest, so she did not even participate in the New Year festivals.
After the New Year, we moved back to the village, this time without even bringing Xiaoqi Baozi.
In the summer of July of the 41st year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, Khoja was about to give birth. During this period, Khoja also realized that the child had spiritual roots, but his aptitude was average, which could be seen from the resources he needed.
He Zhuo went into labor in the middle of the night, but endured it without seeing a midwife. She gave birth to a boy at 7:00 AM. The child's skin was much fairer and more delicate than that of ordinary children, but the difference was not significant.
This is the Eighth Prince of the Zhijun Prince's Mansion.
Yinzhi was very happy. So far, he had six legitimate sons. Which of his brothers did not envy him? Although the Crown Prince had several sons, none of them were born to the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess had only given birth to one daughter and had not conceived again.
The princess Ruan, who lived in the concubine's courtyard, gave birth to a little princess in May, who became the sixth princess of the household.
The fifth princess in the mansion was born to Princess Guan in the 36th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign. Five years later, another princess was added to the mansion, which made Yinzhi very happy.
He Zhuo is more than 12 months pregnant with this child, and it's still not possible to detect it. However, He Zhuo knows that the child's aptitude is probably not very high, which is reasonable, since Yin Zhi is a mortal and has no spiritual roots.
From then on, the Prince Zhi's family had eight sons, six of whom were born to the First Princess Consort. The First Princess Consort also gave birth to the eldest daughter of the family, the eldest princess, and the little treasure.
Since the birth of this youngest son, it's clear to Hezhuo that Yinzhi has completely given up on vying for the throne.
The Crown Prince's memorial has been approved, and from now on Hongyu will be the Crown Prince of Zhijun.
However, Hongyu is still young, and he will probably be able to attend court after his wedding.
It can be said that Prince Zhi's mansion had two happy events: the baby's third-day celebration was simple, while the full-month celebration was lively and festive.
"All the princes have gotten married. Originally, there was a large table for the princes and their wives, but now there's not enough room for even one person. The thirteenth prince and the twelfth prince have also married wives. Your Highness, do you think I'm getting old?" He Zhuo said with a coquettish smile, holding her child.
Yinzhi carefully examined his wife's smooth and delicate face, which was flawless and translucent. She had completely shed the immaturity of her wedding day and was now even more charming. Holding her child, she radiated a strong maternal glow.
He Zhuo saw that Yin Zhi was staring blankly at him without saying a word, and burst out laughing, tapping Yin Zhi's forehead: "Silly boy!"
Looking at his wife's charming smile, Yinzhi felt a tickle in his heart, so he grabbed Hezhuo's hand and kissed it.
"The Princess Consort is still as beautiful as ever. She has borne children for you and managed the household for so long without complaint. You should thank her."
"So, how do you plan to thank me, sir?" He Zhuo asked, her eyes sparkling.
Yinzhi felt like a cat was scratching at the wall inside him. He picked up his youngest son and placed him on the bed. He pulled Hezhuo into his arms, his slightly calloused fingers gently stroking her full red lips. Yinzhi's voice was low and husky: "How does my wife want me to thank her? I am yours completely. You can do whatever you want."
