Chapter 40 The Best Birthday Gift
"Master, someone is coming from the palace."
Shen Lingshu had just finished dressing up and was surprised to hear Zhu Xin's words when she saw Nanny Hua leading Doctor Xu and another nanny.
"Madam Shen, the Emperor is concerned about the fetus in your womb and has specially ordered Imperial Physician Xu to come and take your pulse. Madam Liu Lan is the most experienced nanny in the palace. She is very good at caring for pregnant women and delivering babies."
Nanny Hua smiled and introduced that the emperor valued the child in Shen Lingshu's belly, which meant he valued the prince. In particular, he sent Nanny Liu Lan to protect Shen Lingshu's fetus, which further showed how much the emperor valued her.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
Shen Lingshu bowed in the direction of the imperial palace to express her gratitude, then saluted Doctor Xu and Madam Liu Lan and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Xu and Madam Liu."
Zhu Xin immediately took out two purses and stuffed them into the arms of Doctor Xu and Madam Liu Lan: "Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Xu and Madam Liu."
"I am doing this by the emperor's order. It is my duty." Doctor Xu accepted it with a smile. He had seen Aunt Shen before when he was hunting. He admired the woman who was willing to sacrifice herself to block the arrow for the prince.
"Thank you, Aunt Chen, for the reward." Nanny Liu Lan glanced at Nanny Hua, and Nanny Hua's smile deepened.
Shen Lingshu saw this scene and was secretly delighted. It seemed that the script could be changed.
“Aunt Shen.”
After Doctor Xu put away the medicine box, he began to take Shen Lingshu's pulse. More than half a month had passed since Doctor Lin, the palace physician, took her pulse. The baby in her belly was already four months old.
Like Doctor Lin, Doctor Xu examined the patient's pulse for a long time. Suddenly, he bowed and congratulated, "Congratulations, Madam Shen, you are pregnant with twins."
"The pulse is strong and powerful, and both children are healthy." Doctor Xu looked at Shen Lingshu's abdomen, which was much larger than the usual four-month-old belly.
"Twins? That's great." Shen Lingshu seemed to have just heard the news, stroking her belly happily and said, "Today is the prince's birthday, the prince will definitely be happy."
"Zhu Xin." Shen Lingshu winked at Zhu Xin and said with a smile to Doctor Xu, "Thank you Doctor Xu for sharing your good wishes."
Zhu Xin gave her purse not only to Doctor Xu, but also to Nanny Liu Lan and Nanny Hua. Zhu Xin smiled so much that her eyes narrowed: "Let everyone share in the good fortune."
"Madam Chen is in good health now, and the fetus is breathing steadily. Just take good care of the baby." Doctor Xu did not stay long and immediately went to the front yard to report the good news to the prince.
“Aunt Shen.”
Madam Liu Lan, who had received two rewards, stepped forward and said, "Since Aunt Chen is pregnant with twins, her daily diet should be more appropriate to avoid a difficult birth due to the large babies."
“Avoid sitting or standing for long periods of time, as this will cause the baby to feel uneasy in the womb.”
"It's cold today. If Aunt Shen wants to go out, please put on more clothes to keep warm. Don't catch a cold."
Nanny Liu Lan is not only capable of delivering babies, but also has experience in stabilizing the fetus. She had already taken out a written dietary recipe and handed it forward.
Nanny Hua, who was standing by, looked at the recipe and said happily, "Madam Chen, this is Nanny Liu's experience. Back then, noble ladies in the palace relied on this recipe to save their children."
"Thank you for your hard work, Aunt Liu." Shen Lingshu also knew Aunt Liu Lan. In the script, she was the most amazing person in terms of preserving the fetus and delivering the baby.
forecourt.
"Thank you, Father, for the reward."
Early in the morning, Prince Lin received various rewards from the palace. After Concubine Fang knelt down to thank the emperor for his grace, she was happy for the prince and said, "Congratulations, Prince. Congratulations, Prince."
At least the emperor did not get angry with the prince because of the dethronement of the crown prince.
"Second brother, your younger brother is here to give you a birthday gift."
Prince Heng arrived with Consort Gao, and a servant presented them with a load of gifts. Prince Heng asked, "How do you like my younger brother's gift? Do you like it, second brother?"
"Brother, don't underestimate these oranges and apples. They're the freshest. They're in great demand in Kyoto right now." Prince Heng grinned and said, "Besides Father and Mother, only you have them, brother."
Prince Lin looked at the pile of oranges, the pile of apples, and the hat inlaid with pigeon-blood rubies. The base was so heavily inlaid that it was useless except for display.
"Good, very good." King Lin's eyes flashed slightly.
"I wish my second brother a son soon. I'm looking forward to attending the full moon banquet next year."
Prince Heng said with a smile that after returning from hunting, he went to ask his mother how Prince Lin could make his concubine pregnant?
Knowing that there was no chance, the effect of the medicine would decrease after stopping, and with the imperial physician taking care of the prince's body, it was normal for him to get pregnant.
"Okay." King Lin responded.
Doctor Xu came over in a hurry, and Prince Lin's eyelids jumped. He had gone to treat Ling Shu. Could there be something wrong with the child?
Concubine Fang was also extremely surprised and suppressed the joy in her eyes. Could it be that there really was something wrong with her fetus?
"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty."
Doctor Xu bowed to Prince Lin and said, "Madam Shen is pregnant with twins. The fetuses are stable, the Qi and blood are abundant, and both mother and child are in good health. This is truly auspicious."
"Twins?" Prince Lin's eyes were filled with joy as he said happily, "Qingwu, reward! Double everyone's monthly salary."
"Thank you for troubling Doctor Xu."
There was joy in Prince Lin's words. On his birthday, knowing that Shen Lingshu was pregnant with twins was truly the best birthday gift.
"Come and share in your good luck." Qingwu handed the purse forward, his smile reaching his ears. The prince had no children, and even if the concubine in the backyard got pregnant, the child was inexplicably gone. Qingwu was worried about the prince.
Now Aunt Shen is not only pregnant, but also with twins. This is great news. The prince is really amazing. He got two at once!
"I still have to go to the palace to reply and wish His Majesty a happy birthday." After saying the auspicious words, Doctor Xu returned to the palace carrying his medicine box.
"Congratulations, second brother! It's twins. Mu Ningguo has never had twins before." When Prince Lin heard about the twins, his expression could hardly be suppressed!
He only has two sons and one daughter. Wouldn't his second brother catch up with him in no time?
No, he has to go back and try harder. His father may not say for sure. Will he make him the crown prince just because he has many children?
"Congratulations, didn't my third brother just have a son?" Prince Lin couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
Concubine Fang bowed and saluted: "Congratulations, Your Highness. Congratulations, Your Highness." God knows how much effort she put into suppressing the anger at the corners of her mouth. How could that bitch Shen Lingshu be pregnant with twins?
One, maybe a daughter, but two?
Wouldn't it be possible for her to give birth to the prince's eldest son?
"Rewards, everyone will have rewards today." Prince Lin was very happy. He looked at Prince Heng and said, "Third brother, today we brothers will not go home until we are drunk."
"Don't go home until you're drunk!"
Prince Heng's eyes lit up with joy. He had clearly asked Prince Lin to give him Chinese medicine during his youngest son's full-month banquet, but who knew that he would sneak back home and ruin his plans!
Today, I must make Prince Lin drunk and lose his composure. Then, my father will definitely be unhappy.
