Chapter 121 Birthday is a good chance to get pregnant
Chu Xingchen finally went to bed very late and had a holiday the next day, but he still struggled to get up and go to work.
The New Year is coming soon, and everyone in the Queen's court started sealing the seals yesterday and did not start again until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
But the newspaper also had to be published during the Chinese New Year break. The release of the second issue was very crucial. She had to read it and found out that it was very lively.
When she passed by, the second issue of the newspaper had been released, and everyone who came to the newspaper office had read the newspaper.
Even though they had read the first issue of the newspaper, they had guessed the princess's ambition, but when they saw the second issue, everyone was still shocked.
The ambition and ability of the Crown Princess can be fully seen from this issue. She has extended her influence to the whole country, including the common people.
And in this she was undoubtedly successful.
The common people who have never been interested in the things of scholars like them remember that this is the day when newspapers are released. At dawn, they start to inquire about newspapers, or bite the bullet and buy them, or go to places where newspapers are read to listen.
What they are most interested in is the weather forecast. Although it is not completely accurate, it is still useful for reference. After that, there is the wool thread production part and Lu Qiu's article.
The princess took the people at heart and warmed their hearts. She valued talents and not only showed her talents, but also lit a fire in their hearts.
The situation in the court gradually changed. Sensitive people quickly noticed that Shen Chief Fu, Xiao Shangshu and other royalists were more firmly on the side of the Crown Princess. They were fully supporting the implementation of all the big and small issues raised by the Crown Princess.
Including the trial of traffic lights in Feng'an City, and other things.
The next day, Shen Cangzhu was tricked out of the palace by Wan Dong and returned to Shen Mansion.
This was the first time he went home after entering the East Palace. He was originally full of anxiety, but when he saw his mother, the first thing that was thrust into his hands was a steaming bowl of longevity noodles.
"Mother...this..."
Mrs. Shen and Wan Dong looked at each other and smiled. Wan Dong bowed and explained, "Mr. Shen, it was actually your servant who deceived you just now. This was His Highness's idea."
"She asked the maid to find a way to use the newspaper to trick you into leaving the palace and returning home. She said that today is your birthday and Mrs. Shen's Good Friday, so she asked you to go back to the mansion and eat a bowl of longevity noodles made by Madam herself, and then give Madam
Kowtow."
A child's birthday is a time to celebrate, but Mrs. Shen thought of her Good Friday. Although Shen Cangzhu would kowtow to her every year, this year was particularly different because of the princess.
There were tears in Mrs. Shen's eyes, "I thank you, Your Highness."
Shen Cangzhu's eyes were as dark as ink, and he handed the longevity noodles back to the attendant, lifted his robe and knelt down to Mrs. Shen.
He used to thank his mother for giving birth to him and raising him, but no one emphasized to him that this day was also his mother's Good Friday.
It was the part I heard Chu Xingchen said before about giving birth to a child because he was afraid of pain, and how painful and dangerous it is to give birth, that I felt deeply about today.
"Mother, thank you..."
"I know what you want to say. Get up quickly. The noodles are getting cold. Eat quickly."
She didn't know if her face was too hot, but Shen Cangzhu felt that her eyes were getting hot, and her heart was full of warmth.
Mrs. Shen couldn't bear to leave his eyes. After he finished eating the noodles, Mrs. Shen looked at the late winter outside the house and asked softly, "Cangzhu, have you read the book I gave you before?"
Shen Cangzhu choked, "Mother..."
"It seems that I have seen it." Mrs. Shen snickered, "It's good that you have seen it. To be honest, before you entered the palace, I cried for several nights and fought with your father several times. I didn't want you to enter.
Palace, I feel that the palace is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, and she is not worthy of you."
"Mother." Shen Cangzhu was speechless, why did he say anything casually.
"Don't worry, I only say this to you, and I'm very satisfied with His Highness now. You see, I want you to come back for your birthday, so you have to hurry up. If you miss her, you won't find a better person."
Mrs. Shen added in a low voice, "You must seize the opportunity tonight." Birthdays are a good opportunity, and Shen Cangzhu was conceived on her birthday.
"Mother!" Shen Cangzhu shouted helplessly.
"I'm not wrong." She muttered vaguely. Shen Cangzhu pretended not to hear that Miss Luo was also engaged.
Shen Cangzhu didn't stay long. He paid his respects to your grandfather and father, and finally kowtowed to Mrs. Shen before leaving the house and returning to the palace.
It was very lively on the way back. People were talking about the Da Chu Newspaper everywhere. Scholars gathered together to discuss articles and academics. While people were doing New Year shopping, they listened to people reading newspapers, discussing wool threads and praising the queen.
As the Chinese New Year is approaching, the streets are very lively and red. This year is destined to be a lively year.
Shen Cangzhu listened to the sounds outside and felt proud of Chu Xingchen.
Listening to those compliments, for the first time I felt the urge to open the curtain and tell them that the person they were praising was his wife.
The next moment, Shen Cangzhu burst into laughter and pressed the corners of his eyes, "It's all because of His Highness's sudden surprise..."
He celebrated his birthday every year, but this time it was a completely different experience.
Such surprises and emotions have never happened before.
After returning to the palace, knowing that Chu Xingchen had returned, Shen Cangzhu went directly to Chu Xingchen to thank her.
"You don't have to be so polite, this is what I should do." Chu Xingchen was elated, "Today is a good day. Except for the newspapers we printed for the first time, all the newspapers in Feng'an City have been sold out. Yesterday, we added All the printed copies are sold out, and there are still many people waiting and saying they still want to buy."
"Sales have exceeded our expectations, and we are now printing more."
"I knew His Highness could do it." Shen Cangzhu was also happy in his heart, after all, it was his hard work.
"It's your birthday today, and since it's such a good thing, let's hold a small banquet to celebrate it. Let's invite Ling Zhou, Xiao Wang and the others to join us and make it lively."
Shen Cangzhu paused, "Okay."
In fact, he wanted to be alone with her more than having a lively celebration.
"Then it's settled."
Chu Xingchen seemed to be busy with something, and Shen Cangzhu said goodbye with a wink.
What was Chu Xingchen busy with? He was busy finishing the scarf and preparing a birthday surprise.
After finally getting ready, the appointed dinner time is coming soon.
On Shen Cangzhu's birthday, the banquet was naturally held in Mingxuan Hall. Chu Xingchen rushed to Mingxuan Hall before starting and presented scarves that he had rushed to deliver.
"Happy birthday, Mr. Shen Zi, this is a gift."
The gift was carefully packaged by Chu Xingchen, put in a box, and tied with a beautiful bow.
Shen Cangzhu was pleasantly surprised and curious when looking at such packaging, "What is it? It's not something expensive, right?"
"No, please open it and take a look."
Chu Xingchen was eager to try it. The scarf and scarf at this time were different, and she could teach him how to wear one.
After Shen Cangzhu opened it, he took it out and looked at the long object with a puzzled look on his face, "What is this?"
"This is a scarf, also known as a neck scarf. If you put it around your neck, you won't get cold. I'll help you put it on!"
Chu Xingchen immediately took it over and put her feet around it for him. She still remembered the beautiful way to tie a scarf.
Shen Cangzhu looked down at Chu Xingchen, as if he saw his father and mother. His mother often helped his father tidy up his clothes, and then his father would hug his mother and give her a kiss.
When he was a child, he accidentally broke in and saw it, which left a very deep impression on him.
Shen Cangzhu's eyes moved slightly and he slowly stretched out his hand.
