Chapter 552 Triplets
Time passed by like a white horse, and in the blink of an eye, a month had passed. The court gradually got back on track, and Su Yue was three months pregnant. She had severe morning sickness and vomited everything she ate. She became so thin that she looked unrecognizable.
Murong Li came back soon after court. Seeing Su Yue like this, he was so anxious that he didn't know what to do.
"Yuer, you're so uncomfortable, why don't you just give up the child?"
Murong Li said this after careful consideration. He would rather not have a child than have Su Yue suffer so much.
Su Yue raised her hand to slap him, but her hand was weak, and the slap was no better than a tickle. She said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? I just have a little severe morning sickness, it won't kill me, how can you even give up your own child.
You don't want me to have children, do you want to take a concubine? Let another woman give birth to a child for you? After all, the ministers in the court are clamoring for you to take a concubine every day, so you are tempted?"
As soon as the news of her pregnancy came out, the court officials petitioned Murong Li to take a concubine, saying that the Queen was pregnant and there was no one to serve him.
It seemed as if Murong Li couldn't live without women. On the surface, it was like that, but secretly everyone knew that the court officials were taking the opportunity to send their daughters into the palace.
It's very funny that Chen Fanghua has not married yet and is just waiting to enter the palace to be Murong Li's concubine.
Murong Li held her in his arms and sniffed the sweet fragrance on her body: "What nonsense are you talking about? I just saw how hard you are working. Don't you see that you are like this now? You can scare people to death.
Don't say such things anymore. If I say I won't take concubines, then I won't take concubines. I, Murong Li, will only have you as my woman in this life."
Su Yue pouted and said, "What's wrong with me? I'm very ugly. You're mad at me for no reason."
"No way, I just feel sorry for you." Murong Li thought it would be better for him to keep quiet. A pregnant woman is not to be messed with. His intentions were good, but he misinterpreted them as malice.
"Then don't say anything. It doesn't matter whether the baby is a boy or a girl. At worst, we can just give birth to this one or not."
"Okay, we won't have any more children from now on. Do you have an appetite now?"
Su Yue shook her head and looked at her bulging belly. She sighed softly. She couldn't eat anything. She didn't know what the guy in her stomach ate to grow. In just three months, his belly was much bigger than other people's.
Murong Li's palm also covered her abdomen, and he asked curiously: "Yuer, you said this thing didn't absorb anything, how come it has grown so big? Could it be twins?"
Su Yue's eyes lit up: "Yes, you are already at the fourth level of Qi Refining, you should be able to use the spirit viewing technique, how about you take a look?"
Murong Li is definitely a genius. He is busy like a top every day, but he still has time to practice. He is now at the fourth level of Qi training, while she is still at the first level and has not made any progress.
Su Yue guessed that since she couldn't eat and her cultivation level didn't improve, it was probably because the baby in her belly absorbed it.
"Okay, let me take a look."
Murong Li was also curious. After practicing those spells, he rarely used them, so he decided to try it today.
So he immediately mobilized his spiritual power to his eyes and looked at Su Yue's abdomen.
When he saw three egg-sized lumps of flesh in Su Yue's uterus, he opened his mouth in surprise. These were not twins, but triplets.
He quickly retracted his eyes, hugged Su Yue and said excitedly: "Yuer, you are pregnant with your third child."
"Third baby? How is that possible? I couldn't even feel it from my pulse."
Su Yue's face was full of disbelief. She couldn't imagine that she was pregnant with three babies.
She could take her own pulse, and did so often, but she couldn't find the cause.
Murong Li: "Maybe it's because the month is too early and she can't get it out."
"Yes, that's right." Su Yue also nodded.
"Don't let anyone know that Yue'er is pregnant with her third child for now."
Murong Li immediately reminded Su Yue that although the palace looked quiet, who knew who was hiding in the dark.
Ever since the retired emperor took his women to the imperial mausoleum ten days ago, the palace has cleared out a group of old eunuchs and palace maids. The palace has become much quieter, but what if there are still people they haven't cleared out?
The third child, what is the probability of getting pregnant? Murong Li doesn't want Su Yue to have any problems with this pregnancy.
It just so happens that Yue'er doesn't want to have any more children after this one, so three children are more than enough.
Su Yue nodded slightly. She was still in joy and her hand was carefully touching her belly. No wonder her belly was so big.
The couple was affectionate for a while, and then Murong left the imperial study. Now that the court was back on track, he was going to start building the Xifeng Kingdom.
First of all, there is the issue of food and clothing, which can be solved by carrying out the South-to-North Water Diversion Project at the same time without any hindrance.
In addition, the four major borders of Xifeng Kingdom in the east, south, west and north were also built at the same time.
The Ministry of Industry has already opened cement workshops in the four major border areas and can operate simultaneously.
Hey, all these require money. Murong Li pinched his brows. He had to borrow money from Yue'er again.
In the evening, Murong Li had to speak to Su Yue.
Su Yue rolled her eyes almost to the sky. Who is this person? He said he wouldn't ask her for money, and she hasn't even warmed up to it yet.
Forget it, it’s her son’s kingdom anyway, and she has to give it to him sooner or later. Su Yue still gave it to him.
Murong Li smiled happily, his wife was the best wife in the world.
"Yu'er, this year's imperial examination is almost over. I have an idea of the man you asked me to help Su Yan keep an eye out for. Let me tell you about him for your reference."
"oh?"
Su Yue turned and looked at him: "Then tell me, which family in Beijing is it from?"
Murong Li shook his head: "He's not from the capital, he's from Liangzhou County. He came to the capital to take the exam. I guess he's going to be the champion."
"Is it the Liangzhou that the Lin family occupied?"
Murong Li nodded: "It's that Liangzhou. I was thinking, after marrying Su Yan to that boy, I will send him back and give them Liangzhou to manage."
"Will there be a second Lin family?" Su Yue worried.
Murong Li touched her cheek with a look of pain: "No, we let them take care of it openly, but secretly we still have our people in charge. We are not afraid of them doing anything weird."
It is not a good idea for their own people to manage it openly. It is better to do it behind the scenes.
"Okay, you can do whatever you want. Just inform father when the time comes. I'm not feeling well, so I won't be leaving the palace. My eldest sister-in-law is also not feeling well, and I don't want mother to have to go through the trouble of coming to the palace again."
The eldest lady sent her out of the palace a few days ago. She stayed in the palace for a long time, but there was no hostess to take care of the Duke's Mansion. It was not the right thing after all.
Luo Meiting was pregnant again, and she felt uncomfortable and had no energy to take care of the Duke's Mansion.
"My father and I both chose this person, and he also thought he was feasible."
When Su Yue heard that Mr. Su also liked her, she nodded with relief and agreed to let Su Yan be with her.
