Umaru held out his hand in front of her.

Ma Jiarongrong didn't know why: "Your hands are pretty, what's wrong?"

Umaru hesitated to speak, and finally said: "I mean, people are just like fingers, they are long and short."

Ma Jiarongrong shrugged his nose: "Okay, okay, every time I talk to you, you have a lot of great truths. I know what you want to say, everyone knows different things, right? If you do well,

It doesn’t mean that others can do well. Just because others do well doesn’t mean that you can do well.”

Umaru smiled and nodded.

Ma Jiarongrong stood up: "Okay, I won't tell you anymore. If I stay with you for a long time, if this continues, I will become an old man."

She walked towards the two little palace maids, watched their tea-making techniques, and patiently guided them.

Umaru's hand covered his lower abdomen again.

Is it possible that, before she knew it, she had lost a child.

she does not know.

She thought maybe she was overthinking.

Even if it's true, so what?

The child she gives birth to will only become a member of this society.

Her children will identify with the views of this era.

In this era, after all, she is just a wandering soul with nowhere to go.

Husband, children, family, none of these will be her destination.

She just wants to go back to a place where she can be herself.

Even her ideas will be considered ignorant thousands of years later in her time.

She doesn't plan to change either.

She let go of her hand, lowered her eyes to look at the flowers on the handkerchief, shook her head slightly, lowered her head and continued to embroider.

When Kangxi went down to court, he wanted to summon Uma Lu again, but he was about to speak when he paused again and asked: "Liang Jiugong, how is she?"

"Returning to the emperor, Miss Wuya's face has gained a bit more color these days, and she has gained some weight."

"That's good."

He stopped calling her and said, "Follow me to Cining Palace."

"yes."

Liang Jiugong will go down and make arrangements now.

A group of people came to Cining Palace.

The Empress Dowager was getting older and was more afraid of the cold. Charcoal fires were put on in the house early, and the whole house was as warm as spring.

At this moment, she was hugging Baocheng to warm herself up by the fire, squeezing Baocheng's hand from time to time, with a hint of fondness in her eyes.

Seeing him coming, he hurriedly called him over, held his hand, looked at him, and chatted about everyday things.

"The emperor looks more and more like an emperor."

Kangxi sat down, hugged Baocheng, and asked, "How are you doing, grandma?"

"It's very good, but you haven't been here for a few days..." The Queen Mother paused and said, "I think it's because I have the girl I love that I don't come to see me, an old woman."

"What did the Imperial Grandmother say? Didn't your grandson come to see the Imperial Grandmother if you don't have time?" Kangxi said with a calm expression, "Wang Fuchen and Geng Jingzhong surrendered, and Wu Sangui was captured. That's all.

It took a little more thought.”

"I know, so there is nothing going on in the palace this year, and I won't let your empress do anything to rush you." The Empress Dowager said, "As an emperor, the most important thing is to govern the country and bring peace to the country."

"My grandson thinks so too."

The Empress Dowager said again: "The emperor has no selfish interests, and the country you have conquered must be guarded by someone."

Kangxi lowered his eyes, squeezed Baocheng's hand, and said in a calm tone: "I already have Baocheng."

The Queen Mother paused: "Yes, you already have a prince."

She smiled and said nothing more. She just listened quietly to him talking about recent events.

Finally, after looking at the sky, she left Kangxi to have lunch here.

Kangxi was going back after dinner and wanted to say goodbye.

The Empress Dowager said calmly: "I heard that there is a maid who often stays in your palace."

Kangxi paused and looked up at her.

She said calmly: "You have always been smart, so I won't say more."

Kangxi lowered his eyes and said, "Yes, my grandson knows. Grandma Huang, don't worry."

The Empress Dowager pointedly said: "I know your thoughts are not in the harem, but there should be a master in this palace."

"My grandson knows."

Even though the Empress Dowager sat and looked up at him, her aura did not weaken at all.

"Xuan Ye, you won't let me and your empress down, right?"

Kangxi's answer seemed to be squeezed out from deep in his throat: "Yes, my grandson will never disappoint the emperor's grandmother and the emperor's mother."

The Empress Dowager slightly nodded: "You go about your business."

Kangxi withdrew respectfully, and just as he was about to leave, Aunt Sumala chased him out and handed over the food box in his hand. Liang Jiugong caught it and retreated behind Kangxi.

Aunt Sumala said: "Master saw that the emperor had eaten two more bites, so he asked someone to prepare more so that the emperor could take it back."

"E Niang, thank the Imperial Grandmother for me." Kangxi paused and asked, "E Niang, who has been here in the past few days."

"The Niu Hulu family has paid their respects this morning, and now Your Majesty is here again." Aunt Sumala said a few more words, "My master, I miss you so much. It would be best if Your Majesty comes here more often."

"I will." Kangxi was brought up by her when she was a child. He was close to her and spoke with great respect. "Eniang is in good health recently."

Aunt Sumala nodded and looked at him: "The emperor is becoming more majestic and handsome."

The conversation between them is not like master and servant, but like family.

Aunt Sumala advised again: "This is not what a slave should say, but the master has the emperor in his heart, and everything he says and does is for the emperor's good. The emperor must not let the master feel cold."

Kangxi looked at her and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mother, I know it well. Please tell the Queen Mother not to worry about these things."

"Your Majesty said this, this servant is relieved." Aunt Sumala believed him very much.

After standing for a while, everyone felt a little chilly.

Kangxi said: "I won't talk to E Niang anymore. E Niang, please go in quickly. Don't freeze."

"Okay." Aunt Sumala sent him off, "Your Majesty, please go slowly."

Aunt Sumala hesitated for a moment, then called Kangxi again: "When the servant came out, the master asked the servant to ask the emperor if the emperor has forgotten Empress Xiao Kangzhang."

Empress Xiaokangzhang was Kangxi’s biological mother, Tong Jia.

Kangxi's eyes widened slightly, but he didn't say anything. He just said goodbye to Aunt Sumala and left.

After Kangxi had gone far away, Aunt Sumala entered the room and relayed the words to the Empress Dowager.

The old man lowered his eyes and sighed: "I'm afraid that he... will fall in love with the Aisin Gioro family."

Nurhaci favored Abahai, even though he abandoned her because she had an affair with someone else, he returned his favor a year later and asked Huang Taiji to martyr Abahai after her death.

Huang Taiji favored Hai Lanzhu, gave birth to a child, and granted amnesty to the world.

After the death of his daughter, he even thought that the country was mourning.

Fulin favored Concubine Dong E. The extent of her favor was known to everyone in the palace.

After Concubine Dong E's death, she wanted to become a monk many times, but she died in depression three months later.
