Chapter 405: Mysterious Dream
Chapter 405: Mysterious Dream
The original dream was a warning and also a prophecy. If they didn't take it seriously, perhaps everything in the dream would come true, just like Chengrui's poisoning.
But the gods and Buddhas eventually softened their hearts, so they repeatedly helped them to save their children, such as Chengrui's dream and the child's dream of asking for help.
Therefore, Ji Nai’s heart disease did not occur suddenly. Perhaps she had already vaguely sensed something, so she has been restless. Or perhaps, this is the price Ji Nai paid for having predictive dreams again and again.
Ji Nai didn't understand what was wrong with Kangxi. It was obvious that what she said didn't have any deep meaning. Instead, she casually mentioned the matter of the contraceptive incense. Why did Kangxi's expression become more solemn and frightened?
"Long live the Lord?"
Kangxi suddenly grabbed Ji Nai's hand. From Ji Nai's reaction, he knew that he was not in a good condition. He shouldn't have made the other party anxious, but Kangxi wanted to figure it all out immediately.
Kangxi asked all the palace servants to leave, comforted Ji Nai with just one sentence, and then asked him about everything in the dream in detail.
"Ji Nai, do you still remember that dream? The one about our children being gone."
Kangxi's throat was dry and he uttered this sentence with difficulty. When he mentioned that all the children were gone, his voice was trembling.
In the past, he thought this dream was too unlucky and never took it seriously, but now, he realized... What if it was true? What would Ji Nai do? Would Cheng Rui and the others...
Ji Nai didn't know why Kangxi suddenly brought up this, and he instantly became alert. He just nodded to answer Kangxi's question and didn't dare to say another word.
However, in Kangxi's eyes, Ji Nai's reaction was so heartbreaking, as if he was a frightened little animal, raising all the spikes on its body to protect itself.
Kangxi held Ji Nai in one hand and held her face in the other, and whispered, "Can you tell me in detail?"
"Why did your Highness suddenly ask this? It was just a dream. Besides, it has been so long that I can't remember it clearly."
"Did you forget, or don't want to say it?"
"what?"
"If it weren't for that dream, how could you have believed that it was our child who was asking for help that day?
If it were an ordinary person, he would just think that he thought about it during the day and dreamed about it at night, and he wanted a child too much.
But you didn't doubt it at all, as if you were sure that you would get pregnant again soon."
Ji Nai forced a smile and said, "That's because, because of Yinhua's example, so, that's why I..."
"Then let me change the question. In that dream, how many children did we have in total?"
Ji Nai was silent. She didn't want to answer, but she didn't know what was wrong with Kangxi all of a sudden. She didn't know what she should say to change the subject.
However, Ji Nai's silence seemed to Kangxi a confirmation of his guess. Otherwise, how could Ji Nai be unwilling to tell him about a mere dream?
Yuan Xu was anxiously turning around, "Tell him, tell him all the pain and despair of your past life. Why should you bear these memories alone?"
[What is there to say? It's just that when I repeat it, I will go through the pain again. To him, it's just a dream. Even if I care about it at the moment, I will forget it slowly.]
Yuan Xu didn't know how to comfort Ji Nai. Yes, to Kangxi, this was just a dream.
When it came to avoiding Zixiang, wasn't the first reaction of the big pig's hoof suspicious? It was because Ji Nai had never let it go and was injured in the heart by the stimulation of the nightmare pill that he was willing to believe it.
"Then let me ask this question in another way. In the dream, how many children do we have?"
Ji Nai looked at Kangxi, trying to find something in his eyes, but unfortunately, the young emperor grew up too fast, and even though she was very familiar with him, she still gained nothing.
Kangxi held Ji Nai's hand, then pinched her chin, rubbed her rosy lips with his index finger, and said softly:
"If you don't speak, I will bite you. When Chengrui and Saiyinchahun come, I will see you with a tooth mark on your face..."
Ji Nai glared at Kangxi. How could this shameless man threaten him with this? Last time, they were too indulgent at night and left marks on their faces. He could only hide from the two children, for fear that they would see through him and laugh at him.
As a result, after fighting with wits and courage for several days, he was still defeated.
Although Chengrui and Saiyinchahun didn't say anything at that time, their meaningful eyes seemed to explain everything.
Ji Nai blushed with shame at that time, but Kangxi, who was thick-skinned, acted as if nothing had happened and everything was normal.
Sometimes, Ji Nai really missed the young boy he was, who was thin-skinned and would blush when teased.
Feeling Kangxi's breath getting closer and closer, and the sound of his teeth gnashing, Ji Nai couldn't hold it in any longer and said in a cowardly tone, "Wait, wait, I'm telling you, don't bite!"
Ji Nai stared at Kangxi, who had stopped complacently, and wanted to stay away from him, complaining:
"Your Majesty is so shameless that you really left a mark on my face. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by Chengrui and Saiyinchahun?"
Kangxi embraced Ji Nai, not letting her leave, and said with a smile: "What are you kidding? I love you, shouldn't Chengrui and the others be happy?"
Ji Nai was too lazy to tell him. She nestled in Kangxi's arms, playing with the accessories hanging around his waist, but her voice was a little lonely, "In my dream, I gave birth to six children in total."
Kangxi placed his big hand on Ji Nai's belly, "So, this is Xiao Wu? Will we have another child in the future?"
"Ah."
"If six children can form three pairs of the word 'good'..."
Ji Nai's eyes turned cold, but his tone did not change. He said angrily, "Then your Majesty will be disappointed. We only have Rong Xian as our princess."
Kangxi froze, "Is Rongxian the only princess? Then, are they all princes? Are the rest like Chengrui or Saiyinchahun?"
Ji Nai paused, looked up at Kangxi, blinking his eyes, as if wondering why Kangxi asked this.
Kangxi also looked at Ji Nai and said seriously: "This issue is very crucial. Think about Saiyin Chahun and how often he makes trouble. If several children are like him..." Kangxi and Ji Nai shuddered at the same time.
"If all the children were like Chengrui, I would be happy even if there were a few more. But if there were any more like Saiyin Chahun, I would not be able to handle it."
Ji Nai knew that Kangxi was looking at him expectantly and didn't know what to say.
But her hesitation made Kangxi misunderstand. His handsome face was gradually cracked. He took a few deep breaths, suppressed the panic in his heart, and gritted his teeth and said:
"It's okay. At worst, I will just follow the tactic of 'a good son is born under the stick'. There will be no one to protect the remaining brats."
