[Quick Wear] Puhua Fairy is blessed with a long pregnancy

After returning to the palace, the Empress Dowager sat down to rest for a while. She felt a little less tired and immediately gave the order:

"It's a great joy that the palace has three more children. Concubine Tong has made a great contribution! I can't leave it unsaid. Su Ma, go to the storehouse and prepare the gifts and send them to Jingren Palace later."

"Yes, master." Su Malagu bowed and withdrew.

Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager quickly ordered the palace servants to prepare the gifts and send them to Sheng Huan together with the Grand Empress Dowager's people.

The Empress Dowager gave the order while thinking, with a long-lost vitality in her eyes: "The third-birthday ceremony will be held in a few days. I don't know what to give to the three children. I need to think about it, think about it..."

The Empress Dowager calmed down and drank tea. She looked at the Empress Dowager, who was rarely lively and still chattering, and felt a little pain in her heart. It seemed that she had not seen Qiqige like this for a long time. She had locked her up in the palace from the free grassland, from the age of fourteen or fifteen to the age of thirty or forty, and in the end she didn't even have a child of her own.

Qiqige was kind and considerate, and never blamed her.

Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager's eyes became softer. She looked at Qiqige and asked with a smile:

"Qiqige likes children very much?"

The Empress Dowager was not on guard at all. After all, the Grand Empress Dowager had always loved her and there was nothing to hide from her, so she nodded and said:

"It's been a while since we've seen such lively children in the palace. It makes people feel happy just looking at them. Besides, the two princesses look exactly the same, which must be very interesting."

She seemed a little embarrassed when she said this, and quickly added: "Aunt, what I meant is that all three children are very lovable."

The Empress Dowager had no intention of laughing at her, and she understood something in her mind, saying, "Your palace is indeed a little quiet."

After saying this, the Empress Dowager stopped talking and no one knew what she was thinking.

……

In the delivery room, after the palace maids had cleaned up, Kangxi walked in.

"Qing'er, thank you for your hard work."

He held the woman's slender fingers in front of the bed, with tenderness and care in his eyes.

Actually, Kangxi wanted to come in just now, but the Empress Dowager and the others were there, so he couldn't do so. He was afraid that he would be too conspicuous and bring trouble to Qing'er.

Sheng Huan shook her head. When she realized Kangxi was about to come in, she immediately put on a weak look, as if she had consumed too much energy, and her face was very pale.

But when she saw him come in, she pretended to be fine, and even raised the corners of her lips slightly, revealing a warm smile.

She asked with a smile: "Cousin, have you seen the child? How is it?"

"They are all very well, and look a lot like you." Kangxi noticed that she was pretending to be calm, so he held her hand tightly, suppressed the pity in his heart, and continued, "The imperial physician said that although it is the third baby, it was well taken care of in the womb and is very healthy."

As he said this, he couldn't help himself and bent down to kiss her eyes: "Thank you, Qing'er."

"What are you talking about, cousin? He is my child too." She said with a little pout, and her picturesque eyes and eyebrows became even more radiant.

But as he looked at her, he became more and more worried about her health, but he didn't dare show it on his face for fear of scaring her.

Kangxi planned to go to Wu Chen for confirmation later.

"Qing'er, you must be tired. Have a good rest. I'll be here all the time."

Sheng Huan smiled and shook his head slightly, the corners of his lips seemed to be a little pale: "I'm not tired yet, cousin, talk to me."

Her delicate face was still beautiful, but now with a hint of teasing in her eyes, she looked even more vivid: "Now we have three children, cousin, you have to think of names for them."

When Kangxi saw Sheng Huan like this, he thought she couldn't sleep because of the pain from childbirth and wanted to talk to him to divert her attention. His heart ached and it unconsciously showed in his eyes.

He spoke softly, fearing that his voice would startle her if it was too loud: "I have already decided on names for the three children, Qing'er, listen to them and see what you think."

"Okay, cousin, you say."

Shortly after Sheng Huan became pregnant, Kangxi had already thought of many names and was just waiting for the child to be born.

Although there was one more unexpectedly, it did not have much impact. After all, he had prepared many, many of them, and finally picked out a few after careful consideration. There were both male and female ones, and there was no conflict.

Thinking of the three newborn children, his eyes lit up with a certain brilliance: "My princesses are of noble status, like the bright moon and stars in the sky, shining brightly. Therefore, the third princess is named Sarentuya, which means the moon, and the fourth princess is named Gerile, which means the sun."

"Sixth Prince, let's call him Yinqi, and his nickname is Baokang. I hope they are all well, and pray for God to bless them. What do you think, Qing'er?"

"It sounds so good. My cousin did a great job." Sheng Huan seemed to be listening attentively, with a smile on his face.

"But since Baokang has a nickname, his two sisters can't be left behind. Cousin, you can't be partial." She pinched Kangxi's hand mischievously and reminded him.

Sheng Huan felt helpless. In ancient times, it seemed that everyone believed that boys were more important than girls, let alone the royal family.

But it is undeniable that in the royal family, the prince is more important than the princess.

But it doesn't matter, she will fight for them.

"Qing'er, you have wronged me. I have thought about the nicknames for my daughters and I think the moon and the stars are good, but they have almost the same meaning as the full names. I am afraid that Qing'er will misunderstand that I am perfunctory, so I can only come to ask Qing'er for advice in private."

Kangxi did have this idea. He was worried that Sheng Huan would think he was not attentive. Look, now it was because he spoke slowly that Qing'er mistakenly thought he was biased.

"Okay, I wronged my cousin, please don't blame me." Her eyes moved while her little hand gently scratched his palm. She showed her little girl's manners, but because she was a woman and had children, she had an indescribable different charm.

Kangxi was stunned for a moment, and then he felt his heart getting hot. He secretly despised himself in his heart, but on the surface he looked calm and composed: "Don't blame Qing'er, it's because I spoke too slowly that Qing'er misunderstood. Qing'er, please don't think that I was perfunctory."

"How can I be perfunctory? My cousin has done a great job. They are our moon, stars, and Baokang..."

Sheng Huan murmured the nicknames of the three children, with a smile in his eyes.

After the name was decided and a few more words were spoken, Sheng Huan seemed a little tired and his eyelids began to twitch.

Seeing this, Kangxi tidied up the loose hair on her forehead with his fingers and comforted her softly.

"Don't hold on any longer, go to sleep..."

“Yeah.” Sheng Huan didn’t refuse this time. He just closed his eyes and fell asleep instantly.

Seeing that she fell asleep almost in a second, Kangxi felt heartbroken. Although Qing'er was born quickly, she still suffered a lot.

If Sheng Huan knew what Kangxi was thinking, she would definitely refute it. In fact, she was like this because she didn't take a nap. Of course, she didn't know it.

Kangxi carefully tucked in the corners of the quilt for Sheng Huan to prevent him from catching a cold.

After looking at her for a while, he walked out of the inner room.

"May your Majesty live the emperor's life with good fortune." Wu Chen had been waiting outside, and when he saw Kangxi coming out, he hurried over to greet him.

"Is Concubine Tong really okay?"

After coming out, Kangxi asked Wu Chen again because of his uneasiness. He wondered if Qing'er was weak to begin with and had given birth to three more children, which might have damaged her vitality.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the Queen is in good health and has not lost her vitality. If she takes good care of herself during the confinement period, I think she will be able to recover quickly." Wu Chen was puzzled as to why Kangxi asked this question again. Didn't he ask it before he went in? But it didn't stop him from repeating it again conscientiously.

Kangxi nodded, and was completely relieved. Only then did he feel like teasing people. He looked at Wu Chen jokingly and said, "Wu Chen, although you didn't take Concubine Tong's real pulse this time, you still diagnosed two. There is a reward!"

Wu Chen smiled bitterly upon hearing this, and was extremely terrified. "It is because I am not a good doctor. When I felt the pulse, I felt that it was slightly different from twins. But triplets are rare after all, and I dare not make any rash judgments. Your Majesty, please forgive me."

"A third child is rare, so it's understandable that you can't conceive. Now I'll leave Concubine Tong's body to you to take care of. Serve her well. If anything happens to Concubine Tong, I'll hold you responsible."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will do my best."

……

When the royal family heard the news of the birth of triplets, they were extremely curious. So on the day of the third-day bath ceremony, the wives of the various wives attended the ceremony very actively, making it extremely lively.

Surprisingly, the Grand Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager were also present. It was obvious that they attached great importance to the triplets.

After the palace servants brought out the three children, the wives of the ladies in the crowd all came closer unconsciously, wanting to share in the good fortune.

"Oh, the three children are really handsome, especially the little prince, who looks like the emperor when he was a child. Now that the old ancestor has grandchildren, he can only look forward to enjoying the happiness of having grandchildren."

An old concubine teased the child and approached the Empress Dowager, congratulating her and teasing her.

"All three children are good and I like them very much." The Empress Dowager was in high spirits, as if she was in high spirits because of good things happening to her.

In this social environment where having many children means more blessings, these triplets are absolutely rare and everyone wants to hug them and share in the joy.

In the middle of the baptism ceremony, Kangxi sent someone to announce the names given to the three children.

When the other ladies heard this, they congratulated and discussed the matter in a lively atmosphere.

Concubine Dong, who was sitting in the corner, looked at this lively scene and found it extremely dazzling.

Sarentuya? Geerle? The moon? The sun? Are the third and fourth princesses the only treasures of His Majesty? Is the second princess not one of them?

Her second princess was also the heir of His Majesty, and she had been lying weakly in the palace drinking medicine since she was born, and she didn't even have a name. It was fine for the sixth prince, but the third and fourth princesses were both daughters, and as the younger sister of the second princess, they were given names on the third day of their birth, and the wives of the concubines were vying to hold them. This was unfair!

Her second princess should also have all of this.

She was so jealous that when she looked at the three children, some of her uncontrollable anger leaked out.

Her abnormality was soon discovered by Concubine Nara. Concubine Nara's eyes moved slightly, and a plan came to her mind.

The bustle of the front palace could be heard even as the rejoicings in the inner chambers.

"Master, listen, it's so lively in front. The three little masters are so lovable." Tingqin's brows were filled with joy. In the past three days, the smile on her lips has never faded.

It's not just her, everyone else in Jingren Palace is like this. They go out every day in high spirits, and as long as people know that they are from Jingren Palace, they will be complimented, but no one has the courage to embarrass them.

Sheng Huan smiled, but thinking that Jingren Palace was now too prominent, she had to warn the people in the palace carefully to prevent them from causing any trouble.

Her face was solemn, and she showed her dignity: "Tingxin and Tingqin, you two should control the palace servants in Jingren Palace. Don't be too arrogant just because there are three more masters. If anyone bullies others outside, they will be punished. Don't be stupid and attract the attention of the harem and fall into other people's calculations."

"There's still a lot of time to go on. Don't lose sight of the big picture because of the small details. Got it?"

"Yes, I understand. Master, we will control the palace servants and will never let them act recklessly and abuse their power in the name of Jingren Palace."

Tingxin Tingqin bowed immediately to assure him.

Sheng Huan nodded.

After the third bath ceremony, the concubines returned to their respective palaces.

Concubine Dong was walking on the road in a restless state and did not notice when Concubine Nara approached.

"Sister Dong, Sister Dong?"

Concubine Nara called out several times, but Concubine Dong did not respond.

As a last resort, Concubine Dong's personal maid Hong Dai secretly tugged at her master's sleeve as a reminder. Concubine Dong came back to her senses and looked at Concubine Nara approaching. There was a moment of confusion in her eyes: "It's Sister Nara, what's the matter?"

"Nothing much. I just felt a little emotional after attending the baptism ceremonies of three princesses and princes today. I met my sister and came over to talk."

After saying this, she seemed a little confused and asked:

"Sister Dong, what were you thinking about just now? You were so absorbed in it. I called you so many times just now but you didn't respond."

Concubine Dong felt nervous, worried that the malicious intent she could not control at the banquet would be discovered by the other party.

But thinking that my location was remote and I had never been a standout, there shouldn't be any problem, so I relaxed.

"Sister Nara also knows that the second princess has always been weak, and now she has to take medicine all the time. I was worried about her health, so I was distracted and didn't hear you. I apologize to you, sister." As she spoke, Concubine Dong became more depressed.

"Sister, what are you talking about? As a mother to the princess, I naturally understand your loving heart for her."

The two talked and gradually walked together.

Concubine Nara sighed, seeming to be somewhat envious and worried: "Today's third-day bathing ceremony is really lively. His Majesty really loves the three princesses and princes. Now they are only a few days old and he has already given them names. I wonder when His Majesty will also give a name to my sister's fifth prince..."

Although the Fifth Prince's nickname is Baoqing, Kangxi has not yet given him a formal name.

When Concubine Dong heard this, she felt unhappy for a moment, thinking that Concubine Nara's son had no real name but only a nickname, but her princess had nothing. But when she thought that Concubine Nara's son was sent out of the palace to be raised shortly after birth, and she could hardly see him, she felt that he was also very miserable, and she couldn't help but sympathize with him, and her heart became more and more bitter:

"I just feel sorry for my second princess..."

As if she realized that what she said sounded like she was blaming Kangxi, Concubine Dong quickly said, "Sister, you have spoken out of turn. Sister Nara, just treat it as nonsense and don't tell anyone else."

Concubine Nara shook her head: "Of course I won't. As mothers, I understand Sister Dong's heart."

Concubine Dong suppressed the bitterness in her heart and said, "Thank you very much, sister Nara. I will be arriving at the palace soon. We will say goodbye now."

After the two of them exchanged a half-blessing gesture, Concubine Dong left.

Looking at Concubine Dong's departing back, Concubine Nara felt calm and even indifferent.

The seeds of hatred have been planted. Now, she just needs to make the next move in secret, and Concubine Dong will definitely become the chess piece in her next move.

And she is the chess player.
