Yinzhen has been very busy lately and has no time to go to the backyard.

Although Yixiu was pregnant with twins, her loose clothes just covered her belly. After two months, she claimed to be sick and stayed in Xiangyi Garden, so no one in the palace had discovered that she was pregnant.

Before Yixiu found the right time to announce the news of her pregnancy, Yinzhen came to her Xiangyi Garden as soon as he entered the backyard.

Recently, Yinzhen has been busy with state affairs and has been aloof for a long time. When he saw Yixiu, he hugged her and kissed her without saying a word. His movements were a little rough. He just let go of her lips and gently bit her earlobe.

"No, not today!" Yixiu's cheeks were lightly flushed, she supported his chest with her hands, and her voice was soft.

As soon as this man came, he went to vent his anger on her. It seemed that he had not been to the backyard for a long time and was feeling very depressed.

Yinzhen didn't listen to her words, and the kiss slowly moved down to her neck.

Pregnant women can easily be aroused.

With her transformed body, it would be no problem for her to cooperate, but she wanted to take this opportunity to tell Yinzhen about her pregnancy.

"Master, calm down."

After being rejected again, Yinzhen regained some of his sanity and frowned slightly. He felt a little unhappy and looked at the person under him. His clothes had been torn messily by him in the fierce battle, revealing his smooth white shoulders, slender arms, and the jade bracelet on his wrist made his skin look even whiter.

Seeing her like this, the lust in his eyes grew stronger, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Don't you want me to touch you?"

She frowned slightly and met his lustful eyes. She refused to let him touch her. Was she angry?

Yixiu immediately put on a flattering smile.

"Master, what are you talking about? I am so happy that you are willing to come to my place."

"Then why are you doing this?" Yinzhen was very confused. If he was so happy, why would he refuse?

The woman in the backyard was hoping that he would go there more often, but she was the first person he thought of after he finished his work, yet she refused to get close to him twice in a row.

Yixiu took his hand and placed it on her belly, "Master, you really misunderstood me. I rejected you because the palace doctor said I was pregnant. Before I could explain to you, you blocked my mouth without giving me a chance to explain..."

"Are you pregnant again?" Yinzhen was shocked by the news.

She hadn't been pregnant for so many years, and he thought she had injured her body when giving birth to the quadruplets and could not get pregnant again. But after many years, she got pregnant again.

Yinzhen looked at her belly with a complicated expression. If the woman in the backyard was pregnant, he really didn't want Yixiu to get pregnant again. But in recent years, the women in the backyard either gave birth to little princesses or had unexpected miscarriages when they were pregnant with his children. He even suspected that the reason why he couldn't give birth to a son in recent years was because of Shilan's pregnancy, which was a retribution for him.

Now that Yixiu, who had given birth to five sons for him, was pregnant again, he felt a little more excited.

"You really make me proud."

The woman in the backyard was not pregnant, and Yinzhen was eager to use Yixiu's pregnancy to prove that he could have a son.

He knew that she was pregnant again, but he was not afraid. Instead, it made Yixiu feel a little relieved.

"Pregnancy is such a big thing, why are you telling you now? How many months have you been?" Yinzhen raised his hand and placed it on her lower abdomen, his tone pretending to be serious, his pair of black eyes staring at her.

Yixiu moved his hand from her abdomen to her waist. She moved closer to him, resting her head on his chest, and said softly, "I have been pregnant for three months, and you didn't even know it. After so many years, I was so happy when the court doctor told me that I was pregnant again. I have always wanted to tell you this good news in person, but you have never stepped into my Xiangyi Garden once in three months."

Yinzhen curled his lips, his eyes and brows showed a little more softness and tenderness. He put his arm around her waist and moved to the bed, changing into a comfortable position and holding her in his arms.

Yinzhen: "Xiaoyi, please give me another son."

Yixiu: "Master, don't you like daughters? But I have given birth to five princes and I really want a daughter."

Thinking of her sweet and soft daughter, she eagerly hoped that time would pass quickly so that she could see her daughter as soon as possible.

Yinzhen: "I hope your baby is a prince. If you want to raise a daughter, there are many little princesses in the palace. If you like any of them, I will allow you to raise one by your side."

Yixiu rolled her eyes secretly. Look at what she was saying. She wanted to take the one she liked and raise him. Did she ever consider other people's feelings? She wanted to have a daughter, not to raise someone else's daughter.

Yixiu was already a concubine, so even if she got pregnant again, there was no possibility of promotion. Yinzhen sent many rewards to Xiangyi Garden.

Prince Yong gave many gifts, and the women in the backyard naturally knew that Yixiu was pregnant again.

Upon learning that Yixiu was pregnant again, Ulanara Rouze's eyes instantly turned cold.

Ulanala Rouze: "Didn't you say that she was injured and couldn't get pregnant again? Why is she pregnant again?"

Ziyun: "Qixue passed the news to me. I asked the midwife and the doctor who were in charge of Concubine Jin's pregnancy. I learned from them that Concubine Jin was indeed injured when she gave birth to quadruplets and could not get pregnant again."

Ziyun: "Now that Concubine Jin is pregnant again, it must be that Concubine Jin bribed the palace doctor, midwife, and Qixue to pass on false information to me."

When Ulanara Yixiu became pregnant, other princesses and concubines in the palace had different thoughts.

Nian Shilan, the concubine who lived in the main hall of Yilan Palace, thought of Qi Yuebin, who caused her to lose her child, because Ulanara Yixiu was pregnant.

He put on armor and led a group of servants to Qi Yuebin's bedroom. He slapped Qi Yuebin several times and felt relieved after venting his anger.

This is how Nian Shilan has been living over the years. Whenever she is unhappy, she will take it out on Qi Yuebin.

In the side hall of Yilan Palace, which is completely different from the main hall of Yilan Palace, Feng Gege drinks pregnancy medicine every day in order to have a child.

Feng Ruozhao: "Ruyi, bring me the pregnancy medicine."

"Yes," Ruyi respectfully handed the pregnancy medicine to Feng Ruozhao.

Feng Ruozhao drank the bitter pregnancy medicine in one gulp.

In December of the sixty-first year of the Kangxi reign, Kangxi died in Changchun Garden at the age of sixty-nine.

The will was promulgated: Prince Yong's fourth son, Yinzhen, is a man of noble character and closely resembles me. He will surely be able to inherit the throne. He shall succeed me as the emperor and shall follow the rules and regulations...

Yixiu had just arrived at the east hall door when a eunuch hurried past her, as if he had something important to convey.

Eunuch: "Fujin and Gege are in trouble. The emperor has passed away."

Following the eunuch's announcement of the death, the wives and princesses of Prince Yong's mansion sobbed. Yixiu, who stepped into the palace, watched everyone quickly get into the play. After a moment of thinking, tears welled up in her eyes. While crying, she wiped the tears from her face with a handkerchief.

Yixiu was five months pregnant and her belly was already as big as that of other women who were seven months pregnant. The court physician diagnosed that she was pregnant with twins. With this baby, she did not need to kneel before the spirit of Emperor Kangxi and cry for him. She only needed to burn incense every day.

It saved her a lot of trouble, as Cao Qinmo also received the same treatment as her.

Emperor Kangxi's body was kept for twenty days before his funeral. Prince Yong ascended the throne in front of Kangxi's body after his death and changed the reign title to the first year of Yongzheng.

(Historically, it was changed to the first year of Yongzheng in the second year of his reign. This is different from history and TV dramas.)

At present, Yongzheng only canonized Concubine De as Empress Dowager, Ulanara Rouze as Empress, Ulanara Yixiu as Noble Concubine Chen, Nian Shilan as Concubine Hua, and Li Jingyan as Concubine Qi.

Originally, Yixiu was the Imperial Noble Consort, but because of a remark by the Empress Dowager: The Imperial Noble Consort is the same as the Vice Queen, and the Ulanara family can only have one Queen, not a Vice Queen.

Yixiu only got the position of a noble concubine. In order to compensate her, Yongzheng gave her a title "Chen", which has a special meaning. "Chen" means the location of the North Star, and later it refers to the residence of the emperor, and is extended to be a nickname for the throne and the emperor.

Li Jingyan, who had a son, was canonized as a concubine. The title of Hua Fei was entirely due to her brother's meritorious service to the emperor and her family having a strong background, so she was given the title of Hua Fei. "Hua" means beautiful and glorious.

The positions of other women in the harem are determined by the Ministry of Rites.
