Chapter 142 Eyeing the Emperor's Ring
"Sister, grab, sister, grab."
Chu Chengxiu cried with tears and snot streaming down his face, repeating this sentence over and over again. Concubine Gao watched as the Nine-Curve Ring, which was originally in her son's hand, was now in Chu Mingjiao's hand.
"Your Majesty."
Concubine Gao pulled Prince Heng aside and said with a look of grievance, "The Nine-Curve Ring in Mingjiao's hand belongs to Chengxiu."
"Ming Jiao."
Prince Heng snatched the Nine-Bend Ring from Chu Mingjiao's hand and stuffed it into Chu Mingxiu's arms. Chu Mingxiu, who had just been crying, was instantly happy.
Chu Mingjiao's eyes narrowed, tears immediately fell, and she threw herself into Princess Heng's arms in grievance.
"Princess, Mingjiao is the elder sister and should give in to her younger brother." Prince Heng's words left Princess Heng speechless. She carried Chu Mingjiao and went out.
Prince Heng took a look and heard Concubine Gao whisper something in his ear. Prince Heng immediately withdrew his gaze.
After this little episode, Shen Lingshu finally understood that Concubine Gao was really favored.
At the palace banquet, the dishes were exquisite and plentiful, but when they were delivered from the imperial kitchen, they were all cold. The dishes looked unappetizing. Shen Lingshu finally understood why Nanny Hua reminded her to bring some snacks to fill her stomach!
She couldn't eat all the dishes in the palace, no matter how delicious they were. As a concubine, her status was not high, so she was content to eat, drink and watch the show.
The music, singing and dancing in the palace were quite good too.
Shen Lingshu was watching with great interest when she heard the emperor call out their names: "Mu Ningguo's first pair of twins, bring them here for me to see."
Shen Lingshu immediately stood up, and Chu Cong stood up, took the twins from the nurse's arms and said, "I'll do it."
Chu Cong held one in each hand and walked directly to the emperor's side, saying, "Father, the one in pink is the elder sister, and the one in green is the younger sister."
"Chu Mingchu, Chu Mingxi."
The emperor looked at the two sisters who looked exactly the same and immediately remembered their names. They were twins born that morning. "Second sister, without their clothes, can you tell them apart?"
The emperor is now old, and what he likes most is to have children and grandchildren around him, and to have many children and more blessings.
Although they are twin daughters, the royal family of Mu Ning Kingdom is happy as long as she is the heir to the throne.
"able."
Chu Cong mentioned the two sisters as if they were his treasures.
The emperor looked at Chu Cong with a face full of satisfaction and said, "Let me hug you."
The emperor stretched out his hand and directly took the sister in Chu Cong's arms.
Chu Cong: "..." Sister became quieter.
Shen Lingshu stood aside, looking terrified. Her younger sister was usually the most mischievous, and would talk about anything she saw. If this involved the emperor...
At this time, the younger sister was held in the emperor's arms, her big black eyes like grapes looking at him curiously, and her chubby little hands stretched out towards the emperor.
“…”
Shen Lingshu's heart was in her throat. Her sister loved to grab and bite things the most. Would she bite the emperor?
"As expected of a girl from the Chu family, she's not afraid of strangers!"
The emperor was very pleased to see that Chu Mingxi was not crying or making a fuss, but was grinning.
Shen Lingshu breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and suddenly, her pupils shrank, and she watched her sister grab the emperor's hand.
It's over.
Eyeing the ring.
No one knows a daughter better than her mother. The next moment, the younger sister really took the emperor's ring and started biting it.
"You have a good eye."
The emperor took off his ring and handed it over.
"Father, you can't do that." Chu Cong hugged his sister, looked at this scene, and spoke immediately.
My sister held the ring and nibbled it again and again, obviously very happy.
"My granddaughter likes it, so what's wrong with that?" The emperor raised his eyes and swept his gaze across the audience, taking in everyone's reactions.
"Your Majesty, you don't know that they are twins. Everything needs to be doubled, exactly the same. Otherwise, there will be a commotion." Chu Cong answered calmly.
Shen Lingshu nodded repeatedly on the side. The emperor's ring symbolizes power.
"Besides, the ring is too small. What if she swallows it?" Chu Cong stepped forward and snatched the ring from his sister's hand. At the same time, he quickly took out the pepper wood from his arms and handed it forward.
Chu Mingxi was happily chewing the pepper wood when her hands suddenly became empty. Her big grape-like eyes were filled with confusion. She looked at the emperor and then at Chu Cong. When the pepper wood was stuffed back into her hands, she happily chewed the pepper wood again.
"You're just growing teeth and you bite everything you see. This pepper wood was specially made by me." Chu Cong explained. The top of the pepper wood was cut into a smooth shape, so there was no need to worry about it being swallowed. The handle at the bottom was also convenient for her to hold.
"Eunuch Feng, go get a pair of warm Hetian jade bracelets." The emperor ordered. Seeing that she was not afraid at all and even pulled his beard, he liked her very much.
Soon, Eunuch Feng came over with a pair of top-quality Hetian warm jade bracelets. The emperor held them in front of Chu Mingxi and said, "This is a reward from my grandfather."
“Ahh~”
Chu Mingxi looked at the sparkling thing, reached out, grabbed it, and nibbled it happily.
Chu Mingxi was happily chewing and grinned at the emperor.
"Good job."
The emperor praised it and liked it very much. He gave the jade bracelet to Chu Mingchu. Chu Mingchu took it and chewed it. Unlike Chu Mingxi, Chu Mingchu chewed it very quietly and obediently.
For a while, Shen Lingshu's twins stole the limelight. When the children were brought back, the emperor said, "Shen has made great contributions to the pregnancy and will be rewarded."
When Shen Lingshu brought the child back, she breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the child did not pee, otherwise, if the emperor was angry, it would be hard to say.
Shen Lingyi glanced at her coldly, hiding the jealousy in her eyes. It was just giving birth to two daughters, what was there to be proud of?
Her eyes turned slightly, remembering that the prince had been asking her who was the real person who saved the prince, and she had never given in.
Later, she asked her mother for help, and her mother sent her a man. She learned the art of sex from him, and only then did she win back the heart of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thought that she didn't know who really saved him. Previously, she always felt that she shouldn't let the Crown Prince know that it was Shen Lingshu who saved him, but now...
Shen Lingshu gave birth to a daughter and was favored by Prince Lin. Now her daughter has also caught the emperor's eye. She may be promoted to a concubine in the future. How can her life be better than hers?
Shen Ling lowered his eyes and thought seriously. What would the prince do if he knew that Shen Lingshu was the real savior?
After the palace banquet ended, Shen Lingshu breathed a sigh of relief. She carefully put away the two sleeping sisters and found that the warm jade bracelet was warm to the touch. It was indeed a bracelet made of top-grade Hetian warm jade, and it was indeed unique.
"Zhu Xin, keep it carefully." Shen Lingshu placed the bracelet in Zhu Xin's hand and reminded her, "It's cold outside. When An An and Bei Bei were sleeping, the two wet nurses worked hard to keep watch over them."
"Don't worry, Concubine."
The wet nurses all responded, and even Nanny Hua beside them said, "Concubine, this old servant will take care of the two young masters."
The palace is not like the Youlan Courtyard. There are many people and eyes. If someone wants to harm my two daughters, that would be unacceptable.
