Ye An said excitedly: "Brother Aci, we have a child!"
Mu Ci knew that all he wanted was to have a child, and he couldn't help but curl his lips.
Ye An lifted the hem of her clothes, held Mu Ci's hand and gently placed it on her belly, and asked expectantly: "Can Brother Ci touch him?"
This child is probably not even a month old, how is it possible to touch him? But Mu Ci still did as Ye An said and stroked her gently with his palm.
This is an unprecedented feeling. For a moment, it seems that I can really feel the throbbing of blood connection.
Ye Anba asked: "How is it, what shape is he in?"
Ye Xiaoan actually wanted to touch it himself, but was afraid that his hands would be too heavy.
Mu Ci took his hand and placed it on his warm skin.
Mu Ci smiled and said, "What shape do you think it is?"
Ye An: "So, so peaceful..."
Mu Ci took advantage of the situation and hugged his boy in his arms: "The imperial physician said that when the baby is a little older, the belly will naturally swell up."
Ye An said with relief: "Okay, then let's wait until he grows up a little bit... Brother Aci, do you hope this baby will be a boy or a girl?"
In the modern times where Ye An used to live, many people still have the idea of favoring boys over girls, which is a remnant of feudalism. Ye An thinks that as an ancient person, Mu Ci will definitely prefer his son more, so he should just be responsible for loving his daughter more. Anyway, I can have seven or eight children, both boys and girls.
Mu Ci said, "You gave birth to good children. If you were a big brother, you could protect your younger brothers and sisters."
Ye An liked this idea and said with a smile: "Then let's have a boy first!"
The two of them just acted as if they were an ordinary family. The wife became pregnant, and she and her husband looked forward to the future with great eagerness.
At the Queen Mother's place, Ye An also agreed to notify her after some time when the situation is more stable. After the news of the death of King Huainan was delivered, the Queen Mother searched everywhere for Ye Zhi's whereabouts. Ye An weighed the pros and cons and felt that it would be better not to make the Queen Mother more worried for the time being. He was going to be a father, and he would protect the baby in his belly no matter what.
Ye An had slept for a long time and had not even eaten. She felt hungry after waking up for a while. It might be because she knew she was pregnant that her appetite was better than ever. She even ate half a bowl of rice. She was still not satisfied after finishing it and immediately wanted to eat chicken legs.
Pregnancy is such a big happy event, so of course we have to add chicken legs! Ye An took it for granted.
Mu Ci just heard from the imperial physician that everyone's reaction to pregnancy is different. Many women often suffer from severe morning sickness and have no appetite, which is very painful. But when it comes to Ye An, they actually become more sleepy and have a great appetite.
In comparison, he would rather Ye Xiaoan loved eating and sleeping.
Mu Ci smiled and said, "How many do you want to eat?"
Ye An's eyes lit up: "Eight is ok?"
One for each child. Although only one should be conceived at the moment, the other seven can be considered as advance rewards! Ye An felt that he was really smart.
Mu Ci: “…”
Mu Ci said calmly: "I'll go to the imperial kitchen to get it."
Ye An hurriedly pulled his sleeve and repeatedly asked the eunuch to do it. He was kidding. How could he bear to let Brother A Ci run errands?
Before the chicken legs arrived, Mu Ci cleared his throat and said something that he had thought about for a while: "You really should eat more now. The imperial physician said that you should eat as much as you can. It is still necessary to set up a separate kitchen to be safer... The Xuande Palace is too conspicuous, so it might as well be set up in the Zhaoyang Palace. All the servants around you must be reviewed again. It is always better to be cautious. I have been thinking about the list of guards in the Xuande Palace these days, and the shifts should be disrupted from time to time... And the doctor's instructions, I have written down everything the imperial physician said, and I will read it to you now..."
Mu Ci quickly took out several large sheets of densely marked paper from his sleeve and began to read.
Ye An: “…”
Ye An listened patiently for a while. Mu Ci hadn't finished reading yet. Wasn't Brother Aci a cool and aloof male god? Why did he become a chatterbox after he got pregnant?
After listening for a while, Ye An vaguely felt that Mu Ci's lips were tending to become thinner. If he continued listening, he would probably fall asleep again.
Fortunately, the eunuch finally came back with the chicken legs. Ye An quickly said, "Brother Aci, let's talk later. I want to eat chicken legs. Please help me peel them!"
Mu Ci then hummed, put down the doctor's orders, took the silver chopsticks from the eunuch, and under Ye An's burning gaze, skillfully cut the chicken leg meat and placed it on a prepared jade plate next to him.
Ye An stared at his fingers, dazzled.
It didn't take Mu Ci much effort to put a plate full of chicken legs in front of Ye An.
"Xiao An, eat. I'll tell you the doctor's instructions again."
Ye An: “…………”
Ye An hurriedly said: "Brother Aci, feed me!"
Ye An opened his mouth wide, like a hungry bird. Li Yao was so embarrassed that he turned around and pulled Wang Xingren with him.
Mu Ci felt a little embarrassed, but he also wanted to be more considerate to Ye An, so he picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it into Ye An's mouth. Ye An ate it up with relish, opened his mouth again, and thought proudly, the chicken leg was worthy of being fed and peeled by Brother A Ci himself, it was especially delicious!
Mu Ci fed him several times, then picked up the doctor's instructions again when he had a chance: "Xiao An, eat for a while, I'll read it to you again."
Ye An almost choked, and quickly picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it to Mu Ci's lips.
"Brother Aci has worked hard too, I'll feed you!"
Mu Ci wanted to say that it was not hard for him, but Ye An kept extending his chopsticks, so Mu Ci had no choice but to lower his head and eat. Ye An handed him another chopstick and opened his mouth to signal him to feed as well.
The two of them fed each other for a while, and Mu Ci finally stopped mentioning the doctor's orders. Ye An breathed a sigh of relief. During the break, he hugged Mu Ci's waist tightly. Mu Ci said, "Xiao An, about the doctor's orders..."
Ye An was in tears and fell asleep again a quarter of an hour later.
Mu Ci sighed in his heart. He didn't expect Ye Xiaoan to be so sleepy.
He put Ye An's hands and feet that were exposed outside the quilt back into the quilt. The boy in his sleep cried twice and hugged his arms.
Mu Ci hugged the boy back and kissed him gently between the eyebrows. He was introverted and deep in character, and was not good at expressing the ecstasy of becoming a father for the first time. He could only let the joy in his heart flow freely when it was late at night and everyone was asleep.
The imperial physician has always been very tight-lipped. After Mu Ci and Ye An warned him successively, the old imperial physician said that he would never tell anyone else and even the pulse records were kept in the Xuande Hall. The morning court usually lasts for the first half of the day. Ye An himself was a little grumpy when he woke up, and his sleepiness was not very obvious. After setting up a small kitchen, no one could notice him.
Another ten days later, the old doctor's eyes sparkled as he took the patient's pulse. Although he still said that it would take two months to be certain, he could not help but add softly that it should be about 80% to 90%. The old doctor repeatedly warned Ye An not to have sex and not to touch anything that could promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. He also prescribed a medicine to stabilize the pregnancy, and wanted Ye An to take it day and night.
Most modern people do not agree with taking medicine during pregnancy, but the old doctor said that this was a prescription passed down by emperors of successive dynasties. It was suitable for the physique of the royal family and had a mild medicinal property. Mu Ci secretly sent someone to ask Jiang Jing to look at the prescription. After confirming that it would be very beneficial to Ye An, he ordered the small kitchen to boil the medicine according to the prescription of the imperial physician. Ye An listened to Mu Ci very much and drank the medicine happily for the sake of the baby in his belly. After drinking it, Mu Ci would reward him with a candied fruit and a chicken leg that he peeled himself.
Jiang Jing just learned that Mu Ci, whom she hadn't seen recently, had entered the palace as a concubine. She was so embarrassed that she couldn't speak, and felt sorry for Mu Ci and Ye An. The next moment, something even more outrageous happened. She knew that Ye An was a member of the royal family, but she didn't expect that he was the emperor. It turned out that Mu Ci was Ye An's concubine. Jiang Jing's regret turned into congratulations that the lovers would finally get married.
The two friends became a prominent couple. Because of her carefree state of mind, her life did not change much, except for one more worry: Mu Li, the younger brother of her good friend Mu Huaixuan.
Because she often went to the Taifu Mansion, she was actually quite familiar with the young Second Young Master. When she saw that Mu Li was drugged and in danger, Jiang Jing's first reaction was to try to rescue him.
She acted entirely out of a sense of responsibility to save lives and heal the wounded. Although she was still trapped in the end, Jiang Jing felt that she had fulfilled her responsibility. As for reputation, she was alone in the world. If she cared about such an illusory thing, she would have been drowned in spit long ago.
Jiang Jing didn't care at all, but when Xiao came to her house holding Mu Li's ear and begged Jiang Jing to marry Mu Li word by word, Jiang Jing felt terrible.
Not to mention that she had no such plan at all. Does it mean that if a woman has a bad reputation, she must marry a man who has ruined her reputation? It's called an apology, but what's the difference between this and forcing this girl to compromise!
Xiao had good intentions, but Mu Li said casually that he didn't like Jiang Jing and would not marry her, but was willing to work like a slave for her, and begged Jiang Jing to help him. Jiang Jing politely refused with veins all over her head. Why didn't she know that Mu Li was such a bastard before! Miss Jiang got angry and threw a silver note at Mu Li, expressing her contempt with money. The marriage did not take place in the end, and Jiang Jing planned to return to the battlefield. To her, the battlefield with real swords and guns was much more comfortable than the thrilling imperial city. Xiao felt sorry for her, but Jiang Jing smiled and said that this was her own choice.
Only the naughty kid Mu Li was left, sighing all day long, giving up on himself, and still thinking that he was a burden to his elder brother. It was useless whether Xiao or Mu Zheng personally came out to persuade him, and Jiang Jing later didn't bother to pay attention to him.
Mu Li felt that the whole world had abandoned him and it was all his fault. Mu Li reflected deeply on his mistakes and begged Mu Zheng to take him to see Mu Ci. He wanted to kneel in front of his brother and confess in person, because his brother's bright future was ruined in his hands.
It is said that Su Qingyu, who ruined his reputation, did not have a good ending. She was thrown out of Changle Palace by the emperor during the selection. Because she looked a bit like Imperial Noble Consort Su, she acted arrogantly in the Su family. Once she failed in the selection and was disliked by the emperor, the Su family sent her to the countryside. Su Qingyu always had a sickly pale face, which turned very yellow after a few days. It turned out that this sick beauty who looked like Imperial Noble Consort was just wearing too much makeup.
Mu Li had no time to laugh at Su Qingyu for taking revenge, he just asked Mu Zheng to take him into the palace. Mu Zheng was worried about his eldest and second sons, and went to the emperor in person to ask for help. Ye An readily agreed. When he learned that Ali was also coming, Ye An planned to give Ali a surprise.
When Mu Li saw his brother who still looked like a god, tears filled his eyes. Mu Ci also felt complicated. Before the two brothers could reminisce about the past, a figure broke into Zhaoyang Palace without being notified.
"Brother Aci, Ali!"
Ye An wore casual clothes that looked like peony flowers today. After learning that he was pregnant, he preferred bright and colorful colors. It is said that this can make people feel more relaxed and help preserve the fetus.
Mu Ci gave up the seat beside him and waited for Ye An to sit over. Ye An wanted to talk a few more words with Mu Li, so he sent the servants away from a distance.
Ye An slowly sat down beside Mu Ci, still with his hand hidden under his sleeve, and reached out to hold Mu Ci's hand.
Mu Ci looked at him with a smile.
Mu Li, who was about to burst into tears, immediately held back his tears in shock and pointed at Ye An and said, "Xiao An, why are you here?"
Ye An and Mu Ci looked at each other and noticed the confusion in each other's eyes. Could it be that Mu Li still didn't know the truth?
Ye An wanted to tease him, so he held his chin up and said seriously, "A Li, who do you think I am?"
Mu Li was stunned for a moment. In his opinion, Mu Ci and Ye Xiaoan were both dressed gorgeously and appeared in Zhaoyang Palace together. What did this mean?
Mu Li said sadly: "Xiao An, have you also been chosen by the emperor to be a concubine?"
