Chapter 465 Step by Step Shocking Jade Tan 87
Yutan was in so much pain that she could hardly speak. She just held Kangxi's hand tightly, her nails digging deeply into his flesh. But Kangxi didn't care at all. He just looked at her with heartache, wishing he could bear the pain for her.
"Ah——" Another wave of severe pain came, Yu Tan felt as if she was being torn apart. She couldn't help but screaming loudly, her voice was shrill and desperate.
Kangxi's heart was also tightened. He held Yutan's hand tightly and repeated over and over again: "Yutan, hold on, just hold on a little longer, I will be here with you..."
"It's born! It's born! It's a little girl!" The midwife's joyful voice rang out from the delivery room, breaking the oppressive silence.
The midwife came to announce the good news with the newborn little princess in her arms, but Kangxi didn't even look at her. He just held Yutan's hand tightly and asked anxiously, "I'm glad the child is fine, but... Yutan, how do you feel? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Yu Tan smiled weakly, her voice so faint that it was almost inaudible: "I...I am fine, just a little tired..."
"Okay, okay, I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay..."
Kangxi finally breathed a sigh of relief, gently brushed away the loose hair on her forehead, and said distressedly: "You have worked hard, take a good rest."
After saying that, he turned around and looked at the child in the midwife's arms. The little princess had red and wrinkled skin. At this moment, she had her eyes closed and her mouth opened and closed, looking for something.
Kangxi's eyes fell on the little person, and his heart seemed to be gently touched by something. He had never thought that he would have such a soft moment. This child was the fruit of his and Yutan's love, and the continuation of his life.
He carefully took the child from the midwife, fearing that his clumsy movements would hurt her. The little princess seemed to feel the emperor's breath, her little mouth moved, and she actually calmed down in his arms.
Kangxi's eyes fell on the little person in the cradle, as if he couldn't get enough of looking at her. The little princess had fair and tender skin, with a baby's unique rosy complexion, and a faint shadow of Yu Tan could be seen between her eyebrows.
"It really looks like Yutan." Kangxi stretched out his finger and gently touched his daughter's tender cheek, unable to conceal the smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Li Dequan, do you think my daughter is the most beautiful? Unlike Yinzhen, who was rejected by Tan'er for being ugly when he was born!"
"Of course. Not only is the princess as beautiful as the Imperial Concubine, she also possesses the heroic spirit of His Majesty. She will definitely be a stunningly beautiful woman when she grows up." Li Dequan bowed his body with a smile on his face.
Kangxi was in a very good mood and held his daughter tightly in his arms, refusing to let go. His heart and eyes were filled with this newborn child, and he wished he could present all the treasures in the world to her.
"I want to give her a nice name, let's call her...Si Tan, how about it?" Kangxi looked at his daughter who was sleeping soundly in his arms and thought for a moment.
Although Yu Tan was exhausted, she still pulled herself together and said softly, "Si Tan, I miss Yu Tan. Is the emperor blaming me?"
"How could that be? I'm just too happy. Si Tan, our daughter, I want her to be the most noble and happiest princess in the world." Kangxi looked down at Yu Tan, his eyes full of pity.
Kangxi immediately issued an edict to announce to the world that he and Yutan's daughter was named Princess Gulun and given the name Sitan. Since then, Princess Sitan became Kangxi's favorite and was loved by everyone.
In order to express his love for Yutan and his importance to Princess Sitan, Kangxi ordered to build a magnificent princess residence for Princess Sitan in the imperial palace. It was named "Sitan Palace". The pavilions, towers, rockery and streams, and every plant and tree in Sitan Palace were carefully designed, comparable to a paradise on earth.
In addition, Kangxi also ordered the selection of hundreds of talented and beautiful maids and eunuchs from outside the palace to serve Princess Sitan. These maids and eunuchs were strictly trained, not only proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also understood various court etiquette, in order to cultivate Princess Sitan into a well-educated and talented woman.
Under Kangxi's careful care, Princess Sitan grew up day by day and became more and more beautiful. She inherited Yutan's gentleness and Kangxi's wisdom and decisiveness, and showed extraordinary intelligence and courage at a young age.
Kangxi's love for Princess Sitan was beyond words. He often held Princess Sitan in his arms while reviewing memorials, and sometimes even took her to court. At this time, little Sitan would always open her big black eyes and look around curiously, and occasionally she would babble something that no one could understand, which made Kangxi laugh.
More than a decade passed like flowing water, and the babies in swaddling clothes had grown into handsome boys and graceful girls. Yinzhen inherited the imperial spirit of Kangxi, and his brows were full of heroic spirit.
Yinzhen had a deep relationship with Princess Sitan since childhood. He was a few years older than Sitan and always treated his sister as a treasure. Seeing that Sitan had grown into a beautiful young lady.
Unlike Kangxi's doting on Princess Sitan, Yinzhen's love for his sister was more like that of an elder brother.
"Sitan, did the Emperor take you to the study today? Did you listen carefully to the teacher's lecture?" Yinzhen put down the military book in his hand and looked at the cute and lovely sister in front of him, his eyes full of doting.
"Royal brother, what those teachers say is so boring. It's not as fun as what you're teaching me, riding and archery!" Princess Sitan pouted and said coquettishly in dissatisfaction.
"You little girl, the Emperor asked you to go to the study room for your own good, how can you be so playful!" Yinzhen pretended to be serious and taught her a lesson, but his tone was full of indulgence.
"Royal brother is the best. I know you love me the most!" Princess Sitan said, then threw herself into Yinzhen's arms and rubbed against him like a kitten.
Yinzhen shook his head helplessly. This girl was really spoiled.
From then on, Yinzhen became Princess Sitan's "shield". Whenever Kangxi wanted to "punish" the playful Princess Sitan, Yinzhen was always the first to stand up and plead for his sister.
"Your Majesty, Sitan is still young and it's normal for her to like to play. Please don't punish her." Yinzhen knelt in front of Kangxi with a sincere tone.
Kangxi felt relieved when he saw his son pleading for his sister. He also knew that he doted on Princess Sitan too much, but this child was the treasure left to him by Yutan, so how could he not love her?
"Forget it, forget it. Considering that Yinzhen pleaded for you, I will forgive you this time. If you do it again next time, I will not let you off easily!" Kangxi said in a pretended angry tone.
"Thank you, Emperor Father!" Princess Sitan cheered, hid behind Yinzhen, and made a face at Kangxi.
When Kangxi looked at his daughter's playful appearance, the anger in his heart had long disappeared, leaving only love in his eyes.
