Chapter 78: My son wants to give birth to twins, a boy and a girl
"Master, I haven't seen the prince for a month. Will the prince still remember you?" Zhu Xin looked at Shen Lingshu worriedly.
"The prince often comes to see An'an and Beibei, how could he forget?"
Shen Lingshu raised her eyebrows, but she was not worried at all. She just wanted to raise her two daughters safely. As the prince was a father for the first time, the two daughters were different in his heart.
The next day, early in the morning, Concubine Fang came.
"Concubine." Shen Lingshu was half-sitting on the bed. Seeing Concubine Fang, she bowed slightly and said, "Forgive me for my inconvenience. I cannot salute you."
“It’s okay, Aunt Shen has given the Lin Wang Mansion two daughters, she is a meritorious official.”
Concubine Fang praised her and looked at Aunt Hua who was holding the child beside her and said, "Aunt Hua, bring the child here for me to see. I'd like to get some of the baby's pregnancy information too. Who knows, maybe I can give birth to a son for the prince soon."
"You are young, and I am sure you will get pregnant." Nanny Hua held the child in front of Concubine Fang.
Concubine Fang, who was talking about being pregnant, didn't even touch the baby. Instead, she asked, "Madam Hua, why is the child so small? Is it because the wet nurse wasn't doing her best?"
Concubine Fang spoke with a worried look, looking at the little girl with a burning gaze, as if if she used a little more force, she might even die.
"The child was born ten days prematurely, and they are twins, so naturally they are smaller. However, Concubine, don't worry, the child will grow with time. After the confinement period, the child will be plump and white."
Nanny Hua took very good care of the prince's child, who was finally born, for fear that he might get hurt.
"Thank you for taking good care of him, Madam." Concubine Fang said, and when Madam Hua took the child to feed, Concubine Fang said, "Originally, the baby's third-day baptism ceremony should be held, but the prince said it can't be held..."
"Even this concubine has to obey the prince." Concubine Fang said with an embarrassed look on her face: "Madam Shen, it's better not to do it. You can rest assured and take care of yourself after the baby's confinement."
"yes."
Shen Lingshu responded, but a hint of unhappiness flashed in her eyes.
Seeing this, Concubine Fang felt that her goal had been achieved. She excused herself and left the Orchid Courtyard. Concubine Fang laughed and said, "Just because you gave birth to two daughters, do you think your status will rise so quickly? You're dreaming."
"Madam Gui, did you see Shen's face? I thought she was hiding it well, but her face turned dark in an instant."
Concubine Fang had been worried about her giving birth to her first son, but now she felt relieved instantly.
“Aunt Shen is indeed unhappy.”
Nanny Gui hesitated to speak, and Concubine Fang curled her lips slightly: "Don't worry, Nanny Gui, over the years, I have been able to guess a little bit of the prince's thoughts."
"The prince didn't hold a third-day baptism ceremony, perhaps because he values his two daughters more."
On her way back to Qiutang Courtyard, Concubine Fang looked at Qixia Lake and thought it was particularly beautiful. She said, "This Concubine knows, but Shen may not know. It's easy to have wild thoughts during confinement."
She thought about it all night yesterday, trying to guess what the prince was thinking. She could roughly understand that the prince was worried that a grand wedding would be bad for the child, right?
Who knows if this little bunch of kids can be raised?
She is not comfortable, and she can't let Shen Lingshu sit comfortably during the confinement period!
Imperial Palace.
After leaving the court, the prince specifically mentioned that the third-day bathing ceremony was held during the Dragon Boat Festival, and said, "Second brother, I will go to see my niece tomorrow."
After he was deposed, it was still this biological brother who protected him and worked hard for him.
"Brother, we won't have the third-day bathing ceremony. The child was born prematurely and needs to be taken care of carefully." When Chu Cong mentioned the child, his stern face softened a lot.
"Then I will give the gift to my niece first."
The prince immediately spoke, patted his shoulder, and said encouragingly: "Speaking of children, second brother, you have to work hard. I have three sons and one daughter."
"Second brother, I also have two sons and a daughter, but my younger brother is better than you!" Prince Heng Chu Lian happened to hear it and said it boastfully.
"Do you have twin daughters?" Chu Cong's words made the Crown Prince and Prince Heng fall silent instantly.
"Second brother, when I come back, I'll give birth to twin girls!" Prince Heng said unyieldingly. He added, "No, I'll give birth to twin boys and girls!"
"Then Second Brother will be waiting."
Chu Cong said with a smile, and Prince Heng said as if he wanted to compete with him: "Next year, we will definitely have twins, a boy and a girl."
"Third brother, these twins, boy and girl, are not something you can just have." The prince looked at Prince Heng and still remembered that when they were in the hunting ground, Prince Heng complained to him with tears and snot!
"Brother, I will definitely have it." King Heng raised his head and thought: Even if I can't have it, I must have it.
Mother must have a way to make him give birth to twins, a boy and a girl.
After they parted ways, Prince Heng went straight to Weiyang Palace and said, "Mother, I also want to have twins. I want to give birth to a boy and a girl to surpass my second brother."
“…”
Concubine Shu was just worried about the fact that the emperor hadn't been coming to her palace recently. After hearing Chu Lian's words, she was furious. She glanced at him and asked, "How old are you?"
"Why don't you compete with others to become the crown prince?" Concubine Shu was so angry when she looked at him. If he could work harder, she and her father would be able to make it easier with all the planning behind the scenes.
"Mother, I would like to be the heir, but my eldest brother was deposed, so you didn't let me become the heir."
Chu Lian said this with a wronged tone, muttering, "It's better to compare how much money we make. I'm sure I can make more money than you, big brother!"
"roll!"
Concubine Shu directly drove him out.
…
In Youlan Courtyard, Chu Cong returned to the palace and went to see the two children first. Today was the second day after they were born, and it was the first time Chu Cong saw the children awake.
Two pairs of round, black grape-like eyes, pure, flawless, innocent and ignorant.
"Oh, father and daughter are father and daughter. She was crying just now, but now she stops crying when she sees the prince." Nanny Hua said in surprise.
"Maybe, they recognize me as their father?"
Chu Cong finished speaking and found that the two sisters were looking at him. Chu Cong's heart softened and he said, "An An, Bei Bei, don't you remember your father?"
At this time, Chu Cong only remembered that he had spoken to the two children across Shen Lingshu's belly. At that time, although he felt it was ridiculous, he looked at Shen Lingshu's serious eyes and agreed.
From the initial discomfort, he and Shen Lingshu could talk to each other a lot later, most of the time it was Shen Lingshu who did the talking, and he would occasionally join in a sentence or two.
"Oh, Your Highness, these two young masters are so smart. They know that you are their father." Aunt Hua said with a smile.
"I'm Daddy."
Chu Cong touched his two daughters' little hands and faces, and felt that everything was new and interesting.
Looking at this scene through the screen, Shen Lingshu couldn't help but smile.
"Lingshu, tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, so we won't have the third-day bathing ceremony." Chu Cong said.
"I will obey your Majesty."
Shen Lingshu's voice was as gentle as usual, and she took the initiative to say, "I was just about to tell the prince that An'an and Beibei are still so young. If too many people come, won't they be able to rest well?"
Chen Lingshu didn't care about the face of holding a grand third-day baptism ceremony. As long as the prince cared about his two daughters, he would care just as much even if there was no third-day baptism ceremony. If the prince didn't care, even a grand third-day baptism ceremony, a full-month banquet, or a first-year birthday banquet would be nothing but empty talk.
