When Lu Ze returned, it was already dark. He did not find Qi Yuning in the room. He went to the kitchen and saw Qi Yuning kneading dough. Her unmade-up face was stained with a lot of white flour.
Lu Ze went into the kitchen, smiled at Qi Yuning, wiped the flour off her face with his handkerchief and asked, "Why did you think of cooking?"
Qi Yuning said: "Today is your birthday, I want to make longevity noodles for you."
Lu Ze held Qi Yuning's hand and said, "Let the cook do it. Please forgive me. My mother is the only one at home who can cook bad food. You don't have to cook."
Qi Yuning said unhappily, "I worked hard all day today and made longevity noodles especially for you, but you didn't even eat them and complained that they were unpalatable! My efforts were in vain!"
Seeing Qi Yuning getting angry, Lu Ze said, "I'm just worried that you'll get tired."
Qi Yuning snorted, "No matter what happens today, you have to eat the longevity noodles I made."
Qi Yuning originally wanted to make the noodles more delicate and beautiful, but now he put them all into the pot regardless of whether they were thick at one end and thin at the other.
Lu Ze coughed and said, "To put the noodles in the pot, do we need to add water first?"
It was Qi Yuning’s first time cooking, so how could she know whether she needed to add water to the noodles? Seeing the chef nod at her, Qi Yuning scooped up a bowl of water and put it into the pot.
Qi Yuning looked at Lu Ze and said, "This is the first time that this princess has made noodles. Don't be ungrateful for what you have. In this life, only you can eat noodles made by this princess. No one else will have this kind of treatment!"
Lu Ze smiled and said, "It is indeed a blessing for your husband!"
Qi Yu would rather ignore Lu Ze's sarcasm and just said, "Since you know it's a blessing, just accept it!"
A quarter of an hour later, Lu Ze saw a bowl of clear soup noodles without any seasoning. He was glad that Qi Yuning at least didn't add unnecessary seasonings like his mother did.
Qi Yuning watched Lu Ze eat the noodles with great anticipation.
In addition to longevity noodles today, there is also a table full of delicious dishes.
When they returned to the courtyard for dinner, Lu Ze picked up a piece of honey-roasted pigeon that Qi Yuning loved to eat. When Qi Yuning smelled the food, she covered her lips and vomited.
She felt nauseous and sick.
Lu Zelian asked the maid to call the imperial physician.
Guyu smiled and said, "This should be morning sickness. My sister-in-law also vomited a lot when she was pregnant with my nephew. Generally, vomiting and nausea will occur in the first three months of pregnancy."
Qi Yuning had also heard that pregnant women would vomit, and now that she experienced it herself, she found it quite miraculous.
When the imperial physician came, he respectfully took Qi Yuning's pulse.
After a moment, the imperial physician's face lit up with joy. "Congratulations, Prince Regent, congratulations, the princess is indeed pregnant. The nausea she is feeling right now is just morning sickness. You can eat something light, eat small meals more often, or eat more sour foods."
Lichun, who was beside Qi Yuning, gave the imperial physician a lot of tips.
Qi Yuning touched her belly and confirmed that Lingling was in her belly. There was nothing more gratifying than this.
After the imperial physician left, Qi Yuning took Lu Ze's hand and asked him to touch her lower abdomen. "Lingling is really inside. I can merge my flesh and blood with Lingling. This feeling is really amazing."
Seeing Qi Yuning's happy face, Lu Ze said with concern: "I still remember that when my mother was pregnant with Lu Yun, she had severe morning sickness. Are you going to suffer that too?"
"For Lingling, I am willing to endure any hardship!"
Qi Yuning stroked her belly gently and said, "But I think Lingling wouldn't want me to suffer so much."
Lu Ze said calmly, "Lingling is indeed very well-behaved. I just hope that the Xinwei Year will come soon so that I can see little Lingling when she was over three years old."
Qi Yuning said: "Lingling has been complaining that we don't have time to accompany her. After she is born, you need to arrange your official duties well and spend more time with little Lingling."
Lu Ze responded: "Yes."
It was the perfect time of spring in March, but Qi Yuning was suffering from morning sickness. Lu Ze was busy, and she didn't want to worry about him, so she could only endure the discomfort by herself.
It was not until April that the morning sickness gradually subsided and Qi Yuning discovered that her belly had become slightly bulging.
The posthumous title of Emperor Shiyuan was also confirmed after his death, which was Renzong.
The funeral of Emperor Shi Yuan was extremely grand. Civil and military officials came to see him off. People from all over the city also came to see him off. There was an endless stream of cheers of "Long live the emperor!" In terms of merits and demerits, Emperor Shi Yuan must have been a good emperor with more merits than demerits.
The fact that so many people were willing to come and see him off shows how well Emperor Shi Yuan treated his people.
After Emperor Shiyuan was sent to the mausoleum.
Princess Pingrou fell ill after returning to the princess mansion, and Qi Yuning went to take care of Princess Pingrou.
"mother."
Princess Pingrou held Qi Yuning's hand and said, "I heard that you vomited a lot a few days ago, and I couldn't take good care of you. It's really..."
Qi Yuning said: "Things have their priorities, and the funeral of Emperor Ren is the most important."
Princess Pingrou said, "I have been able to survive all this time thanks to you."
"elder sister."
Zhao Shu entered carrying Yuan Ge'er, who was already eight months old.
Pingrou saw Zhao Shu coming and asked, "Sister, why are you here?"
Zhao Shu said softly, "It's not appropriate to leave anyone in the North City. The prince and I plan to leave tomorrow, so I came here today to say goodbye."
Qi Yuning looked at Yuan Ge'er who already knew how to call her mother and said, "Sister-in-law, you two must take care of yourselves."
Zhao Shu nodded and said, "Yes."
After seeing off Qi Yu'an and Zhao Shu the next day, Qi Yuning looked at the huge Qi Palace. This Qi Palace was so close, but it had been a long time since it had a master.
Qi Yuning returned to the princess's mansion next door, entered the room, and saw Lu Ze who had just come out of the shower. His hair was already very long, but he still couldn't tie it up.
Lu Ze's hair was the ugliest at this moment. Qi Yuning smiled and said to Lu Ze, "You look more handsome with short and long hair. Fortunately, you didn't have this hair when we got married. It would be too ugly!"
Lu Ze listened to Qi Yuning's words and put on the wig. "Now it's not ugly anymore, is it?"
Qi Yuning chuckled and said, "Not ugly anymore."
Lu Ze pulled Qi Yuning to sit on the wooden chair in front of the desk, leaning against her and kissing her red lips. It had been a long time since they had been so intimate.
Qi Yuning leaned in Lu Ze's arms and gasped for breath.
Lu Ze put his hand on Qi Yuning's waist, "Have you gained some weight?"
Qi Yuning said unhappily, "I'm not fat, I'm showing my pregnancy. It's been more than four months, and the baby in my belly will get bigger and bigger!"
Lu Ze gently touched Qi Yuning's slightly bulging belly and said, "You are really showing your pregnancy. I wonder if Lingling can hear what we are saying?"
Qi Yuning said: "It's only been four months, he shouldn't be able to hear it, right?"
Lu Ze picked up Qi Yuning and said, "It's good that you can't hear it."
The bed curtains were draped lightly. Qi Yuning looked at Lu Ze with wide eyes and said, "What are you doing? Are you crazy? Mother specifically told us not to sleep together!"
Lu Ze smiled faintly and said, "There are other ways to stay in different rooms."
Lu Ze touched Qi Yuning’s fair hands. Without the nail polish, her delicate hands looked so beautiful...
