On the way back, Kangxi kept holding the woman's hand and rubbing it all the way.

She didn't say anything, perhaps because too many things happened today and she didn't have the energy to care about what he did.

Just as they reached the pavilion they came from, Liang Jiugong hurried over. He saw Kangxi holding Sheng Huan's hand. The atmosphere around them was even better than before. His eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't dare to ask more questions. He bowed and said:

"Your Highness, madam."

Kangxi nodded: "Have you found out? Why is the guardrail not strong?"

When Sheng Huan heard this topic, her eyes fell on Liang Jiugong. Her fingertips trembled slightly uncontrollably. Kangxi noticed it and instantly squeezed her hand.

Liang Jiugong nodded repeatedly, and said with his eyes downcast: "Your Majesty, I just checked and found that the wooden guardrail has been eaten away by insects and ants at some point, but it looks intact on the outside."

He paused and said, "There are many insects and ants on the mountain. Maybe that's why. I and others have checked nearby. There are several pavilions in the mountain that also have this problem."

There are not many people in the village. Although they go up the mountain, most of them come and go in a hurry without any intention of appreciating the scenery. As a result, they did not notice the problem, which led to today's crisis.

"Deal with all the problematic ones and replace them with new ones," said Kangxi.

Sheng Huan also spoke up at this time: "Your Highness, this place belongs to Zhuangzi, I will send someone to deal with it later."

Hearing this, Kangxi looked at her with a half-smile: "Madam, aren't you afraid of being discovered?"

She froze for a moment, then regained her composure: "Then I'll trouble you, Your Majesty. I'll pay your people for the labor and material costs later."

Kangxi waved his hand generously: "I will give it to you. I don't need your money."

As he spoke, he glanced at Liang Jiugong: "Liang Jiugong, tell me, who are you going to take it from?"

Liang Jiugong's breath was choked, and he bowed quickly: "It is my honor to work for Your Majesty and Madam, why do I need it..."

Kangxi glanced at him indifferently.

Liang Jiugong finally reacted and said with a flattering smile: "Of course it belongs to His Majesty."

"Madam, did you hear that?"

The man was handsome and slightly tall, and although he looked noble, he seemed a little childish.

Sheng Huan pretended not to hear and said let’s talk about it later.

As the group walked down the mountain and approached the manor, Sheng Huan finally spoke up, "Your Majesty, please stay. There are too many people here to talk."

Kangxi looked a little sad. He looked at the woman and said, "I was a little scared just now. I am still in a state of fear. Madam, can you take me in for one night and let me rest here?"

"One night?" Sheng Huan was a little surprised when he heard this. Seeing his sad look, he still asked: "You are the emperor, don't you have to attend court tomorrow?"

The man shook his head: "I am here to do some work. The affairs of the court have been arranged."

She heard this, although still a little hesitant, she agreed: "Well, okay."

Kangxi saw that although she hesitated, she was successful.

It turns out that the lady only responds to soft tactics.

he thinks.

-

After returning, Sheng Huan asked Nanny Lin to clean up a few rooms for Kangxi and his family, and then he didn't pay much attention to it and went back to his room.

"Mother, you're back!"

As soon as he came in, Yue Xing'a ran over. He saw the peach blossoms in Sheng Huan's hand at a glance, and quickly hugged her thighs, staring at them with sparkling eyes, and even reached out to touch them: "Mother, the flowers are beautiful!"

Sheng Huan smiled at Yue Xing'a: "Do you like it?"

"I like it!" Yue Xing'a nodded heavily.

"Take it and play with it. I brought it back for you."

"Thank you, mother!"

Sheng Huan laughed. The three maids following behind her, Feng Qi and Feng Zhu, had calm and natural expressions, and were carrying large bags of peach petals. However, Zhu Yu was absent-minded the whole way, and looked at Sheng Huan from time to time, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself.

I had long forgotten about wanting to pick up peach blossoms, so naturally I came back empty-handed.

At this moment, she was still confused and frightened.

Who is that man? How could he be so intimate with the young lady?

Thinking about Feng Qi and Feng Hua pulling her to kneel, and that man didn't look like an ordinary person, who was he?

Will anyone find out?

Feng Qi and Feng Hua knew what Zhu Yu was thinking at a glance, but they didn't say anything. After all, they had already warned her, so they just had to make sure Zhu Yu kept her mouth shut.

Zhuyu's indenture contract is now with the young lady. If she is smart, she'd better not betray her master.

-

Sheng Huan was really tired, so he took a shower and ate something after returning. He went to bed before it got dark.

No one came to disturb her, except Kangxi, of course.

Not long after she fell asleep, Kangxi came.

He sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the woman's rosy face as she slept. His expression softened and he couldn't help but reach out and touch it. When he touched it, his expression changed instantly.

Why is it so hot?!

I thought it was my illusion, and touched the woman's forehead again. It was incredibly hot, definitely not a normal temperature.

"Someone come!" he shouted.

Feng Qi and Feng Hua heard the noise in the room and hurried in, followed by Zhu Yu in a daze.

"Call Doctor Zhang and get him a basin of warm water."

Seeing that Kangxi looked unhappy, Fengqi and Fenghua became a little worried, thinking that something had happened to Sheng Huan, so they quickly retreated.

Zhu Yu's eyelids jumped? Doctor Zhang? Who is Doctor Zhang? If he can be called a doctor, he must be a doctor in the palace. What is the identity of this nobleman...

She didn't dare to think too much, and quickly followed Fengqi and the others to retreat, not daring to ask a single question.

Feng Hua and Zhu Yu quickly brought over warm water.

Kangxi wrung out his handkerchief to wipe the sweat off the man, and seeing that Sheng Huan's face was still abnormally red, he felt a little regretful.

She was obviously frightened today. He should have asked Doctor Zhang to come and see her. Perhaps he could have taken precautions in advance. Otherwise, why would she be in such pain now? She didn't even realize that he was wiping her face. He felt even more distressed and wiped her face more carefully.

Zhu Yu was terrified watching from the side, but she dared not utter a word.

Doctor Zhang came hurriedly with a medicine box on his back. When Zhu Yu saw him, she was surprised again. Wasn't this a doctor invited from outside the palace? How could he be a royal doctor?

"Hello, Your Majesty." Doctor Zhang knelt down as soon as he arrived.

Zhu Yu was so shocked by this title that her pupils trembled and her legs almost went weak. She was almost supported by Feng Hua who was standing beside her.

Kangxi raised his hand: "Come here."

Doctor Zhang knew the situation was urgent and rushed forward to take the patient's pulse.

As soon as he made contact, his expression became more and more solemn. He put down his hand and looked at Kangxi who was still meticulously wiping the sweat off the man. He didn't even have time to be surprised:

"Your Majesty, Madam has a fever caused by an evil wind entering her body and being frightened too much. Moreover... Madam is pregnant now. If the fever cannot be reduced before dawn, it may be dangerous..."

This is true not only for adults, but also for fetuses in the womb.

Kangxi paused while wiping someone's sweat, and his aura became terrifying: "Go down and get some medicine."

"Yes."

After the man left, Kangxi looked at the woman's dry lips. When he first saw her today, they were still rosy, but now they looked like a flower that had lost its moisture.

"Pour me a glass of warm water."

Seeing that the corner of her clothes was a little messy, he stood up and moved closer to straighten it out, but he was surprised that the corner of his clothes was unconsciously grasped by the woman's fingers. Kangxi looked at it and his heart softened.

That night, Kangxi slept directly on the couch.

From time to time, he would stand up and touch her forehead, and even touch his forehead against hers to check her temperature.

Once again, when the man's forehead touched hers, she woke up in a daze and murmured dully: "Uncomfortable..."

Because he was sick, his voice was a little soft and hoarse, completely different from his usual clear voice. He looked more fragile than usual, and his frail appearance was more than eight points stronger.

Kangxi placed his broad hand on her forehead and said, "Be good, you'll be fine after you sweat."

"Um……"

She responded softly, as if unconsciously, and uttered pitiful mumblings.

"cold……"

The woman's body trembled slightly, as if she felt the heat source beside her, and she subconsciously reached out her hand.

Upon seeing this, Kangxi immediately hugged the person into his arms and held him tightly.

Feeling his warm body temperature, she rubbed against him even tighter. Kangxi couldn't help laughing, and sighed lightly, "I don't usually see you being so proactive..."

Naturally, the woman did not answer him.

The next day, at 1:01 pm, Sheng Huan was still sleeping soundly in Kangxi's arms when a faint sound was heard outside the door.

Kangxi was woken up and was just unhappy about what the people outside were doing when Liang Jiugong's suppressed voice rang out from outside the door:

"Your Majesty, Madam Tong Jia and Young Master Tong Jia are here."
