In her past life, she defied her father and brothers and exhausted all her efforts to support that scum of a man to the throne, only to have him slaughter her entire family in return.
Reborn ...
Although Huai Jin'er didn't suffer much, she didn't expect to get pregnant again so soon.
Moreover, judging by the dates, it was clearly during the few days that bastard was going to the border and dragged her along to read books that she got pregnant.
He sent a letter home asking if she was pregnant again, clearly suspecting that he wasn't really suffering from acclimatization issues, but rather that he was experiencing morning sickness on her behalf.
Fortunately, Xie Jingyan wasn't in front of her, otherwise Shen Wan would have really retorted:
Serves you right!
The last time Shen Wan took a pulse for a patient, she accompanied Yun Rui to see Doctor Tao. Doctor Tao was in the mansion, and since Shen Wan didn't have a headache or fever, and she was out every few days, Doctor Tao had been busy these days. Many patients had caught colds, and he himself had been infected by the patients. So he didn't go to Moyuxuan to take Shen Wan's pulse, for fear of infecting Shen Wan, and even more so, the child.
Unexpectedly, she got pregnant again. Fortunately, the prince was not here, otherwise she might have been tormented and miscarried again.
Even though the pregnancy was stable, Dr. Tao still advised Shen Wan to be extra careful.
Yinshuang was happy, and so were the servants in the manor. With a young prince already in the manor, the arrival of a young princess would make it even more lively.
Shen Wan is pregnant again, which is good news. Steward Zhou quickly sent someone to the palace to announce the good news, as well as to the Pingyang Marquis's residence and the Yun family.
The Imperial Study.
The emperor is reviewing memorials.
The imperial edict summoning Xie Jingyan back to the capital was sent out a few days ago. The emperor hopes that Xie Jingyan will return to the capital as soon as possible to help him handle matters of the court.
After putting down the memorial he had reviewed, the emperor picked up another one, about to open it.
Xiao Xizi rushed in and reported, "Your Majesty, Princess Ling is pregnant again!"
The emperor was taken aback for a moment, then was overjoyed.
Eunuch Yuan hurriedly offered his congratulations, saying, "Congratulations to His Majesty on the birth of another grandson. Princess Ling has given birth to two children in three years, ensuring the continuation of the royal lineage."
The Emperor was in an exceptionally good mood. Thinking of Shen Wan and Huai Jin'er, who had almost lost their child without even realizing it, he casually asked, "How did you find out this time?"
Xiao Xizi wanted to laugh but couldn't. "They said that Prince Ling sent a letter home, asking if Princess Ling was pregnant. Princess Ling had Doctor Tao take her pulse and found out..."
emperor,"……"
Eunuch Yuan, "..."
Princess Consort Ling was pregnant, but she herself was unaware of it; Prince Ling, far away at the border, found out first…
The thought of a certain gentleman suffering from acclimatization problems, vomiting everything he ate, made Eunuch Yuan's lips twitch uncontrollably.
He said that he was just having trouble adjusting to the new environment and would get used to it in a few days. How come Prince Ling's condition was so serious that even Marquis Pingyang felt he was not suitable to stay at the border and wanted Prince Ling to return to the capital? It turns out that it wasn't just a matter of adjusting to the new environment at all, but rather that Prince Ling's wife was suffering from morning sickness.
The emperor guessed it too, and his face turned extremely ugly.
It's one thing for him to be pregnant with the princess's pregnancy in Kyoto, but even after going to the border, he still can't forget to be pregnant with the princess's pregnancy. Why doesn't this son just take the princess with him to the border?
The Emperor was furious but didn't know where to vent his anger. Then, remembering the imperial edict that was being sent to the border, he realized what was happening and said, "Quickly! Send someone to intercept the edict and bring it back!"
Eunuch Yuan dared not delay and quickly sent someone to handle the matter.
Prince Ling wasn't really suffering from acclimatization issues; he was experiencing morning sickness on behalf of Princess Ling. He vomited at the border and felt the same way upon returning to the capital.
Moreover, Prince Ling went to the border to capture Prince Cheng. If he knew he was safe, he would never have returned to the capital without capturing Prince Cheng.
Even if the Emperor's decree is sent, Prince Ling will not listen to it. Sending the decree would be telling the entire army that Prince Ling treats his father's decree as nothing.
How could the emperor possibly do something that would make him lose face?
When news of Shen Wan's pregnancy reached the Pingyang Marquis's residence, Princess Huai'an envied Shen Wan, who didn't have to suffer during her pregnancy. She had almost lost her life giving birth, and she was afraid she would only have one son in her life.
When the news reached the Yun family, Old Madam Yun smiled broadly, saying, "Many children bring many blessings. Wan'er's first birth was easy, so her second will be even faster."
Grandpa Yun said, "Wan'er didn't suffer much, but Prince Ling suffered quite a bit."
The entire Yun family was forced to suppress their laughter.
The news that Shen Wan was pregnant again first spread to various households, and then quickly became a hot topic.
Prince Ling is too amazing. Princess Ling got pregnant again just a few months after giving birth to the young prince.
Even though he was far away at the border, he still remembered to worry about Princess Ling's pregnancy. He really treated Princess Ling like his most beloved concubine.
Countless young women and wives envy and are jealous of Shen Wan.
Meanwhile, two armies were engaged in battle at the border, and a certain gentleman was leaning against the city wall, vomiting.
Shen Jing and Shen Du both disliked him because he vomited.
Unaccustomed to the local environment, dislikes it.
She felt sorry for Shen Wan's pregnancy, but couldn't help feeling disgusted.
Although Shen Wan is their daughter and younger sister, this is the border region. When the two armies are at war, it's one thing to help Shen Wan with her pregnancy in the capital, but it's the same on the battlefield. Men and women have different roles, so why can't he stop taking his wife's job?
It would be one thing if Xie Jingyan was unfamiliar with military strategy, but he had unique insights into military tactics and formations, making him a talented general. Shen Jing had high hopes for him, but he vomited at the smell of blood. Wouldn't that just delay things?
One of the men was so regretful he was practically vomiting his guts out.
He truly hadn't expected Shen Wan to become pregnant again so easily.
He never expected that once he vomited for Shen Wan, it wouldn't be enough, and he would do it again the second time.
What kind of prestige?
He vomited so much he almost died.
Chen Feng handed Xie Jingyan the water pouch to rinse his mouth, and then handed him a string of candied hawthorns.
Well, this gentleman realized that it might not be a matter of acclimatization, but rather that Shen Wan was pregnant again, all because of candied hawthorns.
He felt nauseous when he arrived at the border, but the symptoms were mild. Gradually, they worsened, and Master Tao said it was due to the change in environment, so no one thought much of it.
However, Xie Jingyan's symptoms of acclimatization worsened. He first felt nauseous in the morning, and after a few days, he started vomiting. At first, he only vomited in the morning, but later he vomited at night as well, and then he vomited everything he ate...
Neither Young Master Tao nor the military doctor could alleviate the symptoms, so Chen Feng went to town on business. He saw a vendor selling candied hawthorns and, thinking that the prince had vomited before, the candied hawthorns could help suppress it, so he bought the remaining skewers of candied hawthorns.
When Xie Jingyan saw the candied hawthorns, he thought that Shen Wan might be pregnant again, after all, he knew what he had done.
At that moment, the man seemed to have been struck by lightning.
He quickly wrote the letter home and sent it back to the capital by fast horse.
Although it was just a guess, Xie Jingyan was already seven or eight parts certain in his heart.
The remaining two or three parts were due to the fact that he vomited much more severely this time than last time. Last time, candied hawthorns could suppress it, but this time even candied hawthorns were ineffective, which made him somewhat hesitant.
However, the hesitation turned into certainty once Shen Wan's letter arrived.
Although Xie Jingyan was vomiting terribly, he still insisted on fighting alongside his soldiers. Upon returning from the battlefield, he learned that Shen Wan had sent him a letter from home.
Xie Jingyan took the letter from home and quickly opened it.
The letter contained only two words:
She's pregnant.
Xie Jingyan, “…!!!”
Prince Yanping and Tang Ze peeked over and saw the man's utterly dejected expression. They couldn't help but burst into laughter.
