Chapter 454: Pregnancy with twins is indeed difficult
Imperial study.
Xiao Chengjin frowned slightly as he listened to the shouts coming from afar.
Such great joy?
This guy wouldn't be talking about Ruoruo being pregnant, right?
Chief Steward Lin looked at An Er who had barged into the imperial study, took a few steps forward and whispered, "An Zheng, how can you be so loud and shouting?"
"Master Lin, this is truly a great joy." An Er said, and knelt before the imperial desk, saying, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
"Get up!"
Xiao Chengjin raised his eyebrows, "Tell me, what's the big happy event?"
An Er stood up and said excitedly, "Your Majesty, the Empress is pregnant with...twins."
This news shocked Xiao Chengjin and Manager Lin.
What... twins?
Time seemed to stand still...
After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Chengjin slowly stood up and asked in a trembling voice, "An Zheng, is everything you said true?"
"In reply to the Emperor, the Father-in-law will personally diagnose the patient."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Chengjin rushed out of the imperial study.
After running a few steps, he used his lightness skills to fly towards Yongle Palace.
At this moment, Xiao Chengjin felt a little complicated.
He felt a little scared when he thought about the dangers of having twins...
After Xiao Chengjin left, Manager Lin burst into laughter.
Some time ago, some ministers "still had evil intentions" and persuaded the emperor to take a concubine to have more children.
It’s great that two young masters have come here.
Xiao Chengjin rushed all the way to the main hall of Yongle Palace.
In the main hall, Xiao Yousheng asked excitedly, "Grandfather, will the Queen Mother really give birth to two babies?"
Sheng Yunshao pinched Xiao Yousheng's cheek and said with a smile: "It could be two sisters, or two brothers, or it could be just one brother and one sister."
"Haha, that's great. Sheng'er likes both his brother and sister."
The main hall was filled with the laughter of the grandparents and grandchildren.
"Ruoruo..." Xiao Chengjin rushed into the main hall in a panic.
The happy grandparents were startled by Xiao Chengjin who suddenly rushed in.
"You son-in-law, you scared me to death." Sheng Yunshao cursed.
Xiao Chengjin quickly said, "I'm sorry, father-in-law."
He looked at Jiang Ruo with a worried look on his face, "Ruo Ruo, are these really twins?"
"Of course, this is a gift from God to us." Jiang Ruo smiled with her eyes curved.
Sheng Yunshao looked at Xiao Chengjin and knew what he was worried about.
He coughed lightly and said to Xiao Chengjin, "Son-in-law, although the risk factor of having twins is higher, you don't have to worry as long as I'm here."
After hearing what Sheng Yunshao said, Jiang Ruo noticed the worry in Xiao Chengjin's eyes.
"So that's what you're worried about!"
"Hey, you have to trust our dad's medical skills."
Xiao Chengjin nodded softly, and the worry in his heart dissipated a lot.
Sheng Yunshao stood up and said, "Ruoruo, if you have any questions, send Xiaofeng to the father-in-law's residence to find me."
"I'll go back first."
Jiang Ruo chuckled, "I understand, Dad."
"And you, stop putting pressure on Ruoruo all the time." Sheng Yunshao showed disdain on his face, but he was very satisfied with Xiao Chengjin's performance in his heart.
"Thank you, father-in-law, for the reminder." Xiao Chengjin stood up and said.
Jiang Ruo said to Xiao Fenghuang, "Xiao Feng, send Dad back!"
"Okay, sister." Little Phoenix knew that Jiang Ruo was pregnant with two babies, so she didn't dare to speak loudly.
"Father-in-law, take care."
"Grandpa, take care."
The family of three watched the man and the phoenix leave.
Xiao Chengjin looked at Jiang Ruo who had changed into her palace dress, frowning slightly, "Ruoruo, where are you going?"
"Today is the full moon banquet for Prince Ning's daughter. I will take Sheng'er with me."
Jiang Ruo said, and then told Dongxue to get the gift, "Dongxue, go to the storeroom and pick out a gift."
"As you command, I obey." Dongxue bowed and turned to leave.
Xiao Chengjin lowered his eyes to look at Jiang Ruo's slightly bulging belly, and helped her to sit down at the table.
"Ruoruo, you rest in the palace. I'll take Sheng'er to the Duke's Mansion."
Jiang Ruo looked at Xiao Chengjin, whose face was filled with worry, and said in a negotiating tone, "Sheng'er, how about asking your father to take you there?"
Xiao Yousheng leaned in Jiang Ruo's arms, "Okay, I will be back soon."
Xiao Chengjin looked at the mother and son, and smiled, "Sheng'er, wait a moment. Father will go change into a new set of robes."
After he left the main hall, he gathered the palace maids together.
"The Queen is pregnant with twins. From today on, you must serve her carefully."
"Your servants obey your order." The palace servants knelt and shouted.
After Xiao Chengjin changed his clothes, he took Xiao Yousheng to the Duke's Mansion.
.......
From that day on, the palace servants became more cautious.
Ruyi and Rulan had originally planned to get married on May 8th, but after learning that Jiang Ruo was pregnant with twins, they decided to postpone the wedding.
Jiang Ruo was deeply touched when she learned about this.
For this reason, when Jiang Ruo had nothing to do, he specifically talked about this matter with the two of them.
"Ruyi, Rulan, please let your wedding go ahead as planned."
Rulan and Ruyi looked at each other after hearing this.
"Empress, I will wait for you to give birth to a little princess and a little prince before we get married."
Jiang Ruo curled her lips slightly, "Just like getting married, come into the palace and take care of me."
"I heard that An Qin and the other one had already prepared the yard." Jiang Ruo looked gossipy.
Ruyi and Rulan smiled shyly, "We will obey the Queen."
Therefore, Ruyi and her husband's wedding took place as scheduled.
.......
In the following days, Jiang Ruo also experienced the hardships of carrying twins.
Time flies and summer is here in the blink of an eye.
The weather was hot, Jiang Ruo had a poor appetite and couldn't sleep well at night.
After Xiao Chengjin finished the morning court, he assigned his official duties to Ning Jinghuai and hurried back to Yongle Palace.
He looked at Jiang Ruo's growing belly, feeling both distressed and worried.
Xiao Chengjin took a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off Jiang Ruo's forehead. "Ruoruo, the weather is hot, you should just take a good rest in the bedroom."
"Ruyi, add a few more ice basins."
"As you command." Rulan and Ruyi took the order and left.
Jiang Ruo lowered her eyes to look at her belly and said aggrievedly, "It's really hard to be pregnant with twins."
I have back pain and can't sleep well at night...
Woohoo, I really want to unload the goods.
Xiao Chengjin's face was full of heartache, and he quickly held her in his arms and gently coaxed her, "Thank you for your hard work, Ruoruo."
"Just hold on for another month or so, and everything will be fine once the baby is born."
Xiao Chengjin said, raising his hand to cover Jiang Ruodian's abdomen, and said fiercely: "You two should behave yourself, do you understand?"
Jiang Ruo looked at Xiao Chengjin's silly look and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
After the little phoenix returned from its inspection, it flew back to Yongle Palace and went straight into the bedroom.
It drooped and said, "Sister, it's too hot. I'm almost burnt."
Jiang looked at the dusty little phoenix and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Xiaofeng."
Seeing this, Xiao Chengjin quickly took the bag off Little Phoenix's neck.
Little Phoenix pointed to the bundle and said to Xiao Chengjin, "There are Jizhou's letter and portrait inside."
Then, it said to Jiang Ruo, "Sister, Steward Ji and Aunt Liu know that you are pregnant with twins and said they would come to the capital to see you."
"By the way, I'll go see my nephew first."
After being away from the palace for a few days, I miss my nephew a little bit.
"Go!" Jiang Ruo nodded slightly.
After Little Phoenix left the bedroom, Xiao Chengjin took out the letter from the bag.
He unfolded the letter and read it, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, "Ruoruo, our manor has been built."
Jiang Ruo opened the scroll and saw the blueprint of the manor. "When Sheng'er inherits the throne, we will live there in our old age."
Xiao Chengjin curled his lips and said, "That's a good idea."
Ruyi and Rulan brought a basin of ice and placed it in the corner.
Dongxue saw that Jiang Ruo was in good condition, so she stepped forward and bowed, asking, "Empress, would you like some fruit or dessert?"
Jiang Ruo thought for a moment and said, "I want to drink mung bean soup."
"Tell the cook to make some mung bean soup and send some to Sheng'er and the others."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Dongxue turned and left.
Jiang Ruo handed the scroll to Rulan, "Put it away!"
"As you command."
Jiang Ruo stood up and walked back and forth in the bedroom, holding her abdomen.
She looked at Xiao Chengjin who was following beside her, raised her eyebrows and said, "There's nothing for you to do here, go and take care of your official business."
Xiao Chengjin touched the tip of his nose guiltily, "I don't have to deal with official business today."
With Prince Ning's "assistant" here, I can take a day off.
Jiang Ruo snorted softly, "Our Sheng'er is watching us, you have to put state affairs first."
Xiao Chengjin had no choice but to ask Rulan and the others to take good care of Jiang Ruo.
Jiang Ruo looked at Xiao Chengjin's departing back and smiled triumphantly.
As an emperor, he always wants to be lazy.
Be sure to set an example for your children.
