Chapter 484: Name

After Chen Wan had breakfast, he drank a bowl of bitter medicine. It was so bitter that he wanted to throw it away. No matter how he rinsed his mouth, the bitterness wouldn't go away. He stuffed two candied fruits into his mouth to suppress the bitterness.

Chun'er came in from outside and stood outside the beaded curtain to announce, "Crown Princess, the wife of the Crown Prince Zhaoping is here."

The eldest sister is here.

Shen Wan hadn't seen her eldest sister for a long time and suddenly became happy.

Yinchuan went to greet them.

Xie Jingyu called Zhaopingbo's son, Chen Yu, in.

When Shen Wan gave birth yesterday, Yun was at the Zhaoping Marquis' Mansion. Shen Yu wanted to come with Yun. Shen Yu's life was all thanks to Chen Wan's protection. When Shen Wan gave birth, Shen Yu should have come to accompany her, but the child cried so hard that Yun did not let Shen Yu come to the Jingbei Prince's Mansion.

This was Chen Wan's first child, and everyone thought she wouldn't give birth quickly. Chen Yu would still have time to go to the Jingbei Palace tomorrow morning, but who would have thought that Chen Wan would give birth in the evening.

Chen Yu said, "It's great that I didn't suffer too much during childbirth."

Shen Wan asked, "Where's Xuan'er, is he okay?"

Chen Yu said, "She's been crying a bit lately. I saw the doctor yesterday and he said it was just some bloating in her stomach, but it's nothing serious."

The wet nurse was changing the baby's diaper. Shen Yu and Shen Wan talked for a while before the wet nurse brought the baby over.

Looking at the two children, Chen Yu was filled with envy.

Her child alone weighs more than eight kilograms, and the weight of two children is about the same.

Chen Wan gave birth to a son and a daughter at once. She didn't know if she could have another daughter in this life. It was really like forgetting the pain after the scar healed. Not long after, Chen Yu had already forgotten the fact that she almost died during childbirth.

Chen Yu held the child and asked, "Does the child like to cry?"

Shen Wan shook his head, "I'm not a crybaby."

The nurse smiled and said, "The little master and little miss are very well behaved. They only cried once when they were born, but they are not afraid of meeting strangers."

How could one praise children like that? The two children had just been born, and apart from her, their biological mother, Xie Jingyu, and Shanhu Yinchuan, who served her closely and whose voices seemed familiar, everyone around them was a stranger.

Newborn babies sleep most of the time. When Shen Yu came over, both children were still asleep, so she handed the children to the wet nurse and whispered, "Let the children sleep. Don't hold them all the time. It will be bad if they get used to it."

The wet nurse didn't want to hold the baby around for no reason. Everyone came to visit the Crown Prince's wife and had to see the baby, so they didn't dare not hold the baby.

There was a rocking cradle in the room, and the nanny put the baby in the rocking cradle so that the child could sleep peacefully.

Chen Yu talked with Chen Wan for a long time, but Chen Wan was still worried about Xuan'er and urged Chen Yu to leave.

As Yinchuan was escorting Chen Yu out, the maid Dong'er ran in and said, "Prince's Consort, the Emperor has sent Eunuch An to announce the decree!"

Shen Wan was slightly startled.

No way...it was really the emperor who gave the two children these names, right?

When Eunuch An went to announce the imperial edict to others, he would wait in the outer courtyard for someone to receive it. When he came to the Prince of Jingbei's Mansion, he went straight to Zhaolanxuan.

Chen Wan was in confinement and could not be exposed to the wind, so there was no reason to let Eunuch An come to the inner room to announce the imperial edict. Chen Wan leaned on the big pillow and listened to Eunuch An read the imperial edict.

Sure enough, it was the name given to the two children.

And the name given was almost the same as what Shen Wan expected.

Xie Zhimo.

Xie Yuran.

The Jingbei Palace uses characters to rank seniority, but this only applies to boys. It is much more relaxed for daughters, and usually the eldest daughter is given a character, and the subsequent daughters follow.

The child was conceived on the same day and born on the same day, so the two lives were separated by less than half an hour.

It's normal for the emperor to give similar names.

The emperor not only gave names to the two children, but also gave them longevity locks, and gave Chen Wan even more rewards.

What’s rare is that Xie Jingyu also has a share.

Although not much.

But compared to picking out a jade pendant from a pile of rewards for Chen Wan in the past, this treatment was already much better.

The only thing missing was an imperial edict that explicitly praised him for his contribution to the succession.

Xie Jingyu, “…”

The emperor has been doting on his wife more and more recently.

Judging from the emperor's attitude, he will confer the title of princess on Wan'er once the six-month period is up.

After reading the imperial edict, Eunuch An went into the room to pay his respects to Shen Wan, and then said, "Prince Jingbei has gone to the border, and Princess Jingbei is not in Kyoto. The emperor asked the prince to take care of the princess with peace of mind, and the child's full moon banquet will not be held."

Shen Wan, “…???”

Xie Jingyu taking care of her will not prevent them from holding a full-moon party for the child.

Shen Wan felt strange, and then she heard Xie Jingyu say, "Everything is subject to the emperor's arrangements."

Lord An announced his departure and Xie Jingyu escorted him out of the house.

When Xie Jingyu came back, Shen Wan asked, "Why doesn't the emperor allow us to hold a full-month banquet for the child?"

The third-day bath, full-month banquet and first-year birthday banquet are all very important.

Xie Jingyu laughed, "It's obvious that the emperor is going to hold a full moon banquet for Mo'er Ran'er in the palace."

Shen Wan, “…???”

Shen Wan was a little confused, "How could the emperor hold a full moon banquet for his ministers and grandchildren in the palace?"

Not to mention that there are no full-month banquets for the ministers' grandchildren, there are not even any for their grandchildren.

The Emperor must have made other arrangements that none of the ministers, especially the Empress Dowager and Queen Song, could object to.

Xie Jingyu said, "The emperor dotes on you so much, how can he not love you as well as everyone else?"

This doesn't seem to be true. Not only did the emperor not love his son-in-law as much as he loved his daughter, but since he knew that Shen Wan was his daughter, his status has even declined.

Shen Wan thought about it and realized that the emperor had taken the trouble to give names to the two children, so how could he not like them?

In his previous life, the emperor loved Mo'er and Ran'er very much.

Well, Chen Wan didn't know how much the emperor wanted to see his little grandson and granddaughter, but the two children had just been born and the weather was not warm enough yet. Xie Jingyu couldn't bring the children into the palace, and he, the emperor, couldn't come to the Jingbei Palace casually. If he wanted to see the children, he could only hold a full-moon banquet in the palace.

Not only the emperor wanted to see the child, but also Old Tutor Lin and Old Madam Lin.

Old Taifu Lin came to the Jingbei Palace to see Shen Wan and the child. When he went back and told Old Madam Lin about it, Old Madam Lin could no longer contain herself.

She doesn't go out often, but that doesn't mean she never goes out. If she can go to the Huguo Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings, why can't she come to the Jingbei Palace? Look, accompanied by Yun, Old Lady Lin came to the Jingbei Palace. She couldn't take her eyes off the two children and was very happy.

On the day of the third day of the imperial bath, the Prince of Jingbei's Mansion was particularly lively.

Wei Mingzhu, Zhao Ru, Ling Xue, Qin Nian'er, the Yun sisters, and even the pregnant Chen Ling and Princess Jiang Ling were all there.

Now that they are here, Prince Yuzhang, Chu Yang, Zhao Ang and others will also be there.

And there is Prince Ling. No matter who is missing, he cannot be missing as his uncle.

It’s still early for them to become fathers, so they should first experience what it will be like to be a father.

The two children had longevity locks hanging around their little necks.

They had a great time at the Jingbei Palace, but Shen Wan could only stay in the house and could not participate, which was quite a pity.
