Chen Palace.
When they returned home, it was already afternoon. The old housekeeper and the servants were relieved to see the two return safely. After all, the Dali Temple was not a good place.
Zong Zhengchen held Qin Ye in his arms and went straight into Hanfeng Courtyard:
"Someone come."
He kicked the door open, gently placed the person on the chaise longue covered with a soft blanket, pulled over a thick velvet blanket, and covered Qin Ye.
"Your Highness!" Yue'er ran in, and the old butler also came running happily.
"Make the fire burn brighter and keep it on for twelve hours a day." He ordered in a deep voice, "Lay a carpet in the room and clear out all sharp and fragile objects. The princess must drink warm water and eat light food. She is not allowed to stay up late."
He opened his mouth and listed a dozen precautions without blinking an eye.
The old butler was completely stunned.
Although winter is cold, there is no need to hold her in such high esteem and protect her, right? The princess is already so old, why is she being treated like a baby?
Besides, doesn’t the princess like spicy food?
Qin Ye protested: "If you can't eat spicy food, it's no different from killing me."
"What's the point of killing or not?" He bent down and tapped her mouth. "With the child here, aren't you afraid of that?"
The old butler nodded:
"I also think that it's almost New Year's Day, and saying 'kill' isn't a good idea... Wait! A child?!"
His eyes widened instantly.
The torch-like gaze immediately shot towards the princess's abdomen.
Did he hear it right?
child?
A real child?!
Yue'er smiled and responded, raising her head happily, and went down happily to prepare for the matters related to the prince's instructions.
The old butler stood there in a daze for a long while before he swallowed stiffly, "Princess, Princess...what are you doing..."
Qin Ye looked up: "Yes."
Pointing at her belly, she said, "I'm pregnant with Zong Zhengchen's baby."
"!!"
ah!
One year of marriage!
Almost a year!
Finally!
ah!
Suddenly, the old butler had an urge to howl to the sky and cry bitterly. When Concubine Xiao was alive, he watched the prince grow up with his own eyes; now that Concubine Xiao is gone, he watched the prince get married, and now, he will watch the prince's child being born.
He has participated in the inheritance of several generations, and this sense of happiness is beyond words.
"That's great, that's great!" The old butler's voice trembled with excitement and his eyes were moist.
"That's great... If Madam Xiao knew about this, she would be smiling in her grave. I really want to hit my head against the wall and then go to the underworld to tell Madam this good news!"
Qin Ye: “???”
etc!
There is no need to seek death, Duck!
"Butler, it won't be too late for you to tell Mother a hundred years later. I'm counting on you to take care of my child. You took care of Zong Zhengchen before, so you should have quite some experience, right?"
That experience was quite substantial!
Back then, he often plucked the prince's little penis, and the prince could only kick his legs and cry in his cradle.
He is the first and only person in history to play...
Thinking of this, the old butler became quite proud. He put his hands on his hips and showed off for a while, feeling really cocky about himself.
"Princess, don't worry, I will do my best to serve you! My life belongs to Prince Chen's Mansion!"
After saying this, he immediately went downstairs, gathered all the servants together, and gave them a lecture.
From now on, the female masters in Hanfeng Courtyard must pay 500% attention and take good care of the children. If there is the slightest mistake, ten heads will be enough to lose!
