The imperial doctor came slowly, so Sicang ordered Xianglan to call the medical girl from the prince's palace. After taking the pulse, the two medical girls bent their knees and said, "Congratulations to the prince, congratulations to the princess, this is a happy pulse."
Yun Zishu had an expected expression and said in a gentle tone: "Don't make any noise yet, please step back."
"yes."
Sicang sat on the edge of the bed, holding her hand silently, his eyes falling on the back of her white hands, wondering what he was thinking.
"Sicang, you look unhappy." Yun Zishu leaned on the bed and looked at him thoughtfully, "You don't feel happy at all."
Si Cang came back to his senses and slowly shook his head: "I was thinking about how to ensure everything is safe."
"Don't be too nervous." Yun Zishu was a little helpless, "It is indeed dangerous for a woman to give birth to a child, but firstly, my body is stronger than ordinary women, secondly, most of the nuns in the palace are experienced, and thirdly, you are the prince, and the child is born.
By then, maybe you have ascended the throne and become the emperor, and the best Wenpo, medicinal materials, and imperial doctors in the world are all in the palace, so there is nothing to worry about."
Although Sicang knew she was right, there was always a layer of worry locked between his brows, making it difficult to relax.
"When a woman is pregnant, the first three months are the dangerous period." Yun Zishu frowned, "Don't let too many people know about it for now. The imperial doctor will come over later and ask them to be tight-lipped."
Si Cang hummed: "Okay."
"Don't worry." Yun Zishu stretched out her hand to smooth his eyebrows, "I have successfully overcome all the ups and downs over the years. I won't fall down just because I'm pregnant with a child. I believe that if you survive a catastrophe, you will have good luck in the future. We all will.
He is a blessed person.”
Hearing this, Sicang finally had a smile on his face: "Well, Your Highness is a blessed person."
Half an hour later, the imperial doctor came in a hurry. After Aunt Shi reported, Sicang asked someone to come in.
After checking her pulse, the result was no different, "The Crown Princess is really happy."
Yun Zishu ordered people to get some silver rewards for the imperial doctor and sent them out, "The princess needs to have a good pregnancy, so don't make this news public for the time being."
The imperial doctors understood and nodded in agreement.
In the dead of night, after taking a bath, the couple leaned on the bedside and chatted. Although Yun Zishu was not prepared, she was mostly happy for the arrival of this child, but this happiness was tinged with a sigh: "I have always been happy since I was a child.
I have never been in contact with children, so I don’t know if I can take good care of them.”
Si Cang seemed to have been temporarily absent-minded, but he came back to his senses after hearing this: "Tomorrow, let me choose a few experienced nannies to take care of me, and then select a few young wet nurses... The children's clothes and shoes can also be prepared first.
Prepare more. Are ten sets each for boys and girls enough? I am pregnant in October, and it is May now... The baby should be born in the first month of next year, so I need to prepare more winter coats..."
With a smile on her lips, Yun Zishu just listened quietly to Sicang's calculations. Although he had no experience, he tried his best to think of everything he could think of, and he might also be looking forward to this child.
The couple are looking forward to the arrival of this child together, for no other reason than because this is their child. Who says this is not a happy thing?
Si Cang thought about it for a while, then turned to look at Yun Zishu: "Should we give the child a nickname first?"
Yun Zishu nodded: "Yes."
"What's a nice baby name?"
Yun Zishu said: "You decide."
Sicang was silent for a moment: "Your Highness, do you like boys or girls?"
"As long as it's our child, I like it." Yun Zishu smiled lightly, "But from the perspective of the country, having the first child be a boy can stabilize people's hearts. If there is a younger sister in the future, the elder brother can also protect her.
"
Si Cang imagined the scene of brother-sister friendship, his eyes became much gentler, and he reached out to hold Yun Zishu in his arms. His mood was complicated for a moment: "It's really joyful to have children around your knees, but..."
"Worried about me?" Yun Zishu didn't take it seriously, "Don't worry unnecessarily. There is still a long way to go. Who knows what will happen? Maybe next year there will be news that Emperor Yong is ill, and the princes will start to
They are killing each other, and I will go back and reap the benefits."
Si Cang was silent for a moment and couldn't help but laugh: "Shu'er has a good attitude, I should learn more from you."
"Sicang, you've been worrying about gains and losses lately." Yun Zishu leaned on his arm, her voice soft and lazy, "Although I don't know what's hidden in your heart, people have to look forward and not dwell on the past.
If you have any knots in your heart, resolve them promptly. Self-restraint is not the behavior of a strong person."
Since returning to Dongyou, Sicang's identity has certainly undergone earth-shaking changes, but the biggest change has been his mentality. It's just that Sicang has always concealed it well, so that no one will notice the difference easily.
Yun Zishu is willing to respect him and give him time to think clearly, but this does not mean that he can always be immersed in that kind of unnecessary trouble.
Sicang didn't say anything, he just hugged her tighter.
The next day, Yun Zishu slept until she woke up naturally. She must have been drowsy due to pregnancy. When she woke up, it was already past the usual breakfast time. After Xianglan and Yueying helped her wash and change clothes, they ordered a bowl of carefully stewed food.
Come over here.
"The prince is in the study?"
"No." Xiang Lan shook her head, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and General Fu went to the Feiyu Army's military camp early in the morning to inspect the camp. They said they would come back in the evening so that His Highness the Crown Princess could have a good rest."
Yun Zishu paused slightly while eating the bird's nest, and then hummed: "I have nothing to do recently, so I want to find some interesting books to read."
Xianglan said respectfully: "The Prince's Mansion has a library."
"The prince has not long returned, and there should not be many books in the library." Yun Zishu said casually, "The library in the palace contains original and unique copies. Many lost books are collected in the palace and cannot be obtained outside.
See."
"Yes." Xianglan nodded, "But Tianlu Pavilion is the emperor's library, and the outside of the library is heavily guarded. Even the princes and princesses who want to go in to read must obtain the emperor's permission. If the prince and concubine want to read, it is better to wait for the prince to come back.
Your Highness the Crown Prince will take you with him?"
Yun Zishu didn't want to go with Sicang. She finished the bowl of bird's nest slowly, stood up and said, "Follow me to the palace to see the emperor."
Emperor Wu was accustomed to getting up early. At this time, he was reclining on the Ming Huanglong couch, listening to Yuan Hai reporting what happened outside the palace. Recently, his greatest pleasure was hearing about the affairs of the host family, the Li family, even though this "host family, the Li family" were all under the emperor's feet.
He belongs to a noble family, but in the past he was immersed in government affairs, and few people dared to bother him with such trivial matters.
However, he recently discovered that these trivial things sounded much more interesting than the boring court affairs. The various forms of living beings were not only the pictures presented to him by the ministers, but also the "fireworks" that he had never seen before.
"So, the eldest daughter of the Situ family did not have a good life in the Zhongyi Hou Mansion?"
Yuan Hai bowed and said: "It's not too good."
Emperor Wu raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised: "Situ Lingyi didn't stand up for his daughter?"
