"I also want to give them a younger brother, but your body has not recovered yet. Giving birth to children one after another is not good for your health. I don't want you to become weak because of this.
What I want is to spend the rest of my life with you, not just a few years together. In order to stay with me forever, I won't let you get pregnant so soon."
Kangxi was speaking from the heart. He wanted to grow old with her. Since she was his, she should stay with him for the rest of her life.
In fact, he had been hiding something from Mu Sili, which was that he had a dream when she gave birth to Yinzhen. The dream was so real that it was terrifying, and it also made him more determined to be with her.
In the dream, Mu Sili did not become his concubine, but served the royal mother for her entire life.
They could have been together forever, but she rejected him because she was worried about the Queen Mother. Of course, one of the reasons was that the Queen Mother didn't want her to become a concubine, otherwise how could he miss her?
When she thought about how she had served the Royal Mother all her life and almost followed her after her death, if he hadn't trapped her with the child, she would have died long ago.
She did not become his concubine during her lifetime, and after her death he still buried her with the ceremony of a concubine regardless of etiquette. It can be regarded as a wish fulfilled, but he still felt regretful in his heart.
Ever since she risked her life to save him from smallpox when he was a child, she has had a place in his life.
Since she couldn't be his in life, he would just offer her some comfort after her death.
But now she was not serving by the royal mother's side as she had expected, but had become his concubine. He was glad that she would not end up in the same situation as in his dream.
The Queen Mother cared about him, otherwise she would not have asked her to become his concubine. But she was not sincere, and he could not force her if she did not want to.
How lucky he was that in real life she agreed to become his concubine, so that he didn't suffer from lovesickness, and she also gave birth to three princes for him. He was lucky.
"Your Majesty, whatever you say is what I will obey. Don't worry, Your Majesty, I haven't lived enough. How could I possibly abandon you and the children and go to hell? Don't worry, I will definitely rely on you for the rest of my life."
"Okay, I'll take note. You and I love each other and will definitely be together for the rest of our lives."
Yinreng and Yinzhen did not dress the twins in women's clothes. Not only that, Kangxi forced Mu Sili to take care of her body for two years before she became pregnant again.
"Is the Empress Dowager pregnant with a baby girl this time? My son and I have been waiting for two years, and it's finally here."
"That's right, Empress Dowager, if you don't give me a younger sister, I will really treat my fifth and sixth brothers as my sisters.
You don’t know, everyone has a sister, except my son. My son would be embarrassed to say he is a prince when he goes out.”
The corners of Mu Sili's mouth kept twitching. How could she not know that Yinzhen was worried that others would laugh at him?
He has been spoiled by them over the years and is not calm at all. If he is not restrained, what will happen in the future?
And the most important point is, did the two of them threaten her just now?
If she was pregnant with another son, they would probably rebel.
"I'm not sure if it's a daughter, so how about this? If this baby is a son, I'll keep having children until I give you a sister?
Mu Sili was joking, but Yinreng and Yinzhen took it seriously.
They can see how hard pregnancy is. If the Empress Dowager had always given birth to sons, how much suffering would she have to endure?
They were filial sons and could not allow such a thing to happen. Compared to her body, her sister seemed less important.
At worst, when they grow up, they can give birth to a daughter and then dress her up however they want, and no one will dare to say a word against it.
"Empress Mother, my sister is not as important as your health. Your son doesn't want a sister anymore. You should take good care of your health after giving birth to this child.
When my son grows up in a few years, I will give birth to a daughter and dress her up well. Then he will protect her well and not let her get hurt in the slightest."
"Second brother is right, Empress Dowager, your health is the most important thing to me. Although I really want a younger sister, I don't want you to take any risks.
You must take care of yourself. Your son hopes that you can help him raise his children in the future. You must not exhaust yourself."
The corners of Mu Sili's mouth kept twitching. She thought he said these words because he felt sorry for her, but she didn't expect that he said these words with the intention of asking her to help take care of the children.
The thought of having grandchildren around someday made her feel she needed to give them a sister.
Everything that happened now was caused by the fact that she didn't give birth to a daughter. If she had given birth to a daughter, they wouldn't have had such strange thoughts.
"I suddenly remembered that I was wrong just now. When the imperial physician examined my pulse, he said that I was pregnant with a little princess."
Yinreng and Yinzhen looked at each other and saw uncertainty in each other's eyes.
The Empress Dowager has a bad memory? Are you kidding? They still remember the punishment of having to memorize the text two months ago. Is that what you call a bad memory?
They are young but not stupid. If the Empress Dowager wants to deceive them, she should practice for a few more years before trying again.
"Empress Mother, I think it's better for you to tell the truth. Just now you said she was your younger brother, how did she suddenly become your younger sister? I don't believe it."
"Isn't this just teasing you? You all know I have a bad memory, so you can't blame me for not remembering this.
Besides, since you guys have always wanted a sister, I must see how you react to a brother."
Mu Sili spoke so confidently, she was not wrong, it was they who were wrong.
"It's not the son's, so are you feeling relieved now? Is there really a little girl in your belly?"
"Of course it's true. How could I possibly lie to you? When she's born, you must protect her well. Don't let anyone take her away easily. I can't stand it."
"Don't worry, Empress Dowager, I will keep my word."
As spring passed and autumn came, Mu Sili gave birth to a daughter as she wished. Not only Yinreng and Yinzhen, but Kangxi was also extremely happy.
"I finally have another daughter. Look, this is my little daughter. As her elder brothers, you must protect her and prevent her from getting hurt. Remember?"
"Of course. My son has been looking forward to her for so many years, he will definitely treat her well."
Kangxi nodded in satisfaction. It was indeed a great joy to have both a son and a daughter. Fortunately, he had already chosen a name for her in advance. Nanzhi means "golden branches and jade leaves". She deserved this name.
"My little princess is a daughter of a golden branch and jade leaf, worthy of the most noble thing in the world. Nanzhi is her name."
Mu Sili likes the name Nanzhi very much. It is the name she is most satisfied with so far.
