Chapter 340 Extra: Royal Conflict
The months they were away were only three days in this world.
These three days were just for them to rest and not have to go to court, and Lin Mo also had a wedding leave, so although they were away for a few months, people in the capital really didn't feel anything.
Flower Peacock and Stupid Beauty were both forced to study, and they were old enough to take the imperial examinations.
Moreover, these two people were not stupid, and they were good at writing, but their personalities were a little too simple.
When Lin Mo came back, it was as if she was in another world. Looking at her room and the familiar grass, clothes and trees, she was about to cry.
"I'm finally back, and I don't have to continue studying!"
What bothered him the most in the past few months was going to school every day. His parents, brothers and sisters could all go out to play, but she had no time to play at all. She went to school in the morning and came back at night.
And she couldn't be intimate with her husband even though she had a husband, because it was illegal for high school students to do so. In that world, they were not yet adults.
Bai Xiao was also more familiar with this world, and heaved a sigh of relief after returning.
The other people were always a little dazed. In fact, they quite liked that world. Everything was convenient and they didn't have to worry about national affairs.
Compared with managing national affairs, handling company matters was really simple.
"Alas, happy times are always so short. Now that we are back, let's just think of it as a dream."
Minister Lin touched his familiar long hair and missed it quite a bit. Although he liked that world very much, he still liked his current outfit more.
Everyone else was still in a trance, Lin Mo and Bai Xiao were the ones who recovered the fastest.
They took the money and went out for a big meal, and then went to play with their two friends.
Flower Peacock and Stupid Beauty still found it hard to accept their marriage.
Although the whole capital knew that they were a couple, this sudden marriage really caught them off guard.
"I was wondering why you two got married so soon? We haven't had enough fun yet. As soon as you two got married, we both had to start studying. Why didn't you two hold on a little longer?"
Hua Kongque was really full of resentment. Although he was quite smart, he really didn't like studying.
Lin Mo leaned in Bai Xiao's arms and said happily: "You are just jealous and envious. You are jealous that I found such a good person."
"But you two should really be more mature. You are the only child in your family. You are not as lucky as me. I have a brother, sister-in-law, sister and brother-in-law. The sky will not fall on my head, but you are different. You have to bring honor to the family!"
Hua Kongque and Ben Meiren: "But our parents are also pregnant. We will have brothers and sisters in the future. Let the brothers and sisters bring honor to the family!"
Yes, during this period, the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Personnel had good news.
After attending Lin Mo's wedding banquet, the two wives felt a little unwell. When they asked the doctor to take a look, they found that they were pregnant.
They were quite surprised that their son was pregnant at such a big age.
But they were mostly happy, after all, having many children and grandchildren is a blessing.
Lin Mo looked at Bai Xiao: [Is that so? How come I didn’t know? ]
When did those two ladies get pregnant? She, a melon-eating queen, didn’t even know. This is too much of an insult to her reputation.
Bai Xiao stuffed a piece of dried meat into her mouth and said helplessly: [I know, but I didn’t have time to tell you. ]
Indeed, the two of them just came back and didn’t have time to take care of so many things.
But this is also a good thing, but whether in this era or in modern times, pregnant women at this age are considered advanced mothers, and it may be a bit dangerous.
Lin Mo was really a little worried. [Bai Xiao, it’s a little dangerous for an older woman to give birth. Giving birth is like going through the gates of hell. It’s even more dangerous when she’s older. I’m a little worried.]
Hua Kongque and Ben Meiren were originally very happy, but they were scared when they heard what he said.
They knew that giving birth was like going through the gates of hell, but they thought that their mother had given birth to them once, and the doctors said that it would be easier for women who had given birth to give birth next time, and it wouldn’t be too dangerous.
Why did Lin Mo say something different from the doctors? And they trusted Lin Mo more, after all, this man had the all-knowing system Bai Xiao by his side.
Qin Zheng’s palms were sweating. If there was any danger, he would rather his mother not give birth to this child.
Bai Xiao: [You don't have to worry too much. The two ladies are in good health now. There shouldn't be any accidents. I have some books on gynecology here. I will copy them down and pass them out. It will benefit the people.]
Lin Mo nodded in agreement in the group.
Hua Kongque and Ben Meiren breathed a sigh of relief. The system said it was okay, so it should be okay.
However, after returning, they still told their parents about it. The Minister of Dali Temple and the Minister of Personnel almost didn't want the child on the spot.
"Dad, don't get excited. Bai Xiao said that mom is in good health and there won't be any big problems. He also said that he would copy some books on women's gynecology and pass them out. Don't worry, nothing will happen."
This matter was soon known to all civil and military officials, and Emperor Xuande was the happiest.
Which emperor would not be happy about things that benefit the people? This little system is really getting better and better.
It's a pity that the identity of this little system cannot be exposed, otherwise he would be given an official position to attend court.
Lin Mo is exactly the same after getting married as before. He stays in bed in the morning and refuses to get up. He dozes off during court, just like Jianshou before.
Bai Xiao would help put Lin Mo on the carriage in the morning, and then find an opportunity to disguise himself as a sneak and follow him. The two of them would still eat melons in the court.
Bai Xiao: [Do you smell it? The prince smells like milk. The princess gave birth to a dragon and phoenix twin. Now the prince takes care of the child every day, just like your father did back then.]
Lin Mo even deliberately went over to smell it. The prince:...Are you polite?
Lin Mo: [The smell is really strong, and a little sour, as if it's gone bad, like the smell of fermented milk. Doesn't he clean it up again in the morning? When my dad first took care of me, he cleaned it up again in the morning.]
The emperor also squinted his eyes at the crown prince, and the second and third princes came over to smell the scent of their eldest brother.
Well, there is indeed a sour smell, but it is not smelly.
The crown prince:... This is the smell of sweat mixed with milk. How can I have time to clean up again in the morning! It
is already difficult to take care of one child, and he has to take care of two children!
He felt sorry for the crown princess's weak body after giving birth, and was worried that other people would not be able to take good care of the children, so he usually held the children to his side and looked after them himself.
The two children are very well-behaved, but they are really powerful when they make a fuss!
By the way, can he ask Minister Lin for advice when he leaves the court later?
Taking care of Lin Mo should be more difficult than taking care of his dragon and phoenix twins. Minister Lin will definitely find a way!
The emperor and empress originally liked their grandchildren very much, but that was just liking them.
It was okay for you to bring them over to play occasionally, and it was okay for them to stay for a day or two, but they
couldn't stand being asked to take care of them all the time. They had finally become the emperor and empress and had such great qualifications and money in the treasury. They didn't want to start taking care of children every day. They had taken care of this child enough.
It was time to start enjoying life, instead of being forced by the child to start taking care of the child every day.
Occasionally, when you have nothing to do, you can send the child to the palace to play, anyway, there are many grandmothers in the harem.
After Lin Mo smelled the prince, he started to smell the smell of other people, and the main one was a wretched one.
Lord Li standing next to her had a look of despair on his face.
Why does it feel like Master Lin has become more unruly after getting married?
After the court session was over, the prince immediately called Minister Lin aside.
Looking at the haggard prince, Minister Lin seemed to see himself many years ago.
"Prince, you don't have to do it so personally. My little bastard doesn't allow anyone to hold her, so I carry her alone. It shouldn't be the same for the two little grandchildren."
The prince smiled awkwardly, "It's not true. My two children can also be held by others, but I'm worried."
He also heard that the three children of the Lin family were raised by Minister Lin, especially the youngest Master Lin.
And the three children of the Lin family are so outstanding, doesn't the prince want to learn from them, but it's too tiring to learn this way.
Minister Lin shook his head and sighed: "You should let go appropriately. It's okay to let the servants take care of the child. Just spend more time with the child when you are free. Don't be too spoiled. You see, my child is too spoiled."
The two looked at Lin Mo at the same time. Lin Mo was spinning in circles to amuse himself.
The prince, Minister Lin: ...
Yes, being too spoiled is not good. It looks a bit abnormal.
The prince also learned from this experience, which made his mental state better.
The Crown Princess did not have so many worries. Anyway, she married a good man and had no worries when she was pregnant. Except for the pain of giving birth, everything went smoothly after giving birth.
The prince was still very good to her, and they were still the same after being together for so many years.
Some people said before that her position was unstable without an heir, but now these two children have silenced the public.
Dragon and phoenix twins, what an auspicious meaning.
After the birth of the dragon and phoenix twins, the happiest family besides the prince's family was the second prince's family.
Now this family is still immersed in a happy atmosphere.
"Hahahaha, my son is finally saved! Finally, he doesn't have to inherit that damn throne!"
During the time when the crown princess was pregnant, all kinds of good things from the second prince's mansion were shipped to the crown prince's eastern palace as if they were free, and the second prince's wife and two concubines were just short of serving the crown princess hand in hand.
They were used to such a leisurely life, and they didn't want their children to become emperors in the future. How tiring it would be.
They had seen what kind of life their father had lived for so many years. Although they didn't know how poor their father was before, they knew that he was not very rich.
After knowing how poor their father was, they didn't want to be emperors anymore. They
couldn't sleep well because of the pressure. If they had some money, they had to subsidize the national treasury. They forced their mother and concubines to be good at raising vegetables, chickens and ducks.
After all, their mother and concubines were from famous families. They only needed to know how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and embroidery before, but later they had to learn all kinds of breeding techniques.
Nowadays, even the Minister of Agriculture sometimes has to discuss things with the ladies in the harem. There is no other way. The ladies are really experienced.
But they seem to be enjoying it now.
"Don't laugh, don't laugh. Send these things to the East Palace quickly. Children's things must be handled with caution. And this book, this is the experience I wrote down when I was pregnant with two children. Send all of them to the East Palace."
The Second Prince's wife was so busy. If she didn't have time to go, she would have gone by herself.
The young prince and the little princess looked at their mother and two aunts so busy and didn't know what happened.
They only knew that they had younger brothers and sisters, but they had no idea that their fate was saved.
Looking at these things that were sent over, the prince had a black line on his face.
The Crown Princess was quite happy. She took these children's things and pointed them at the two children.
"My second brother and his wife are really thoughtful. They have been very attentive during this period. They have sent all the good things here. I suspect that they will soon empty the Second Prince's Mansion."
The Crown Prince sneered and rolled his eyes. "Oh, don't be fooled by them. Don't think I don't know what they are thinking. They think that we have a successor and their two children are saved."
"You said that other brothers are eager for their children to ascend the throne, why are they completely different?"
The Crown Princess was silent when she said this. Looking at the puzzled Crown Prince, the Crown Princess said seriously: "You should know this in your heart."
The Crown Prince: ...Well, this throne is indeed very tiring.
Sometimes he wondered why his father and mother didn't give him a brother.
He also thought about the lives of his younger brothers. When he was busy, his two younger brothers lived a comfortable life.
He took the blame for everything, and when there was good news, those two bastards came over.
Looking at the beautiful Crown Princess, the prince still felt a little comforted.
Although the life of the prince was very tiring, he still married his beloved, and his father had settled everything. Even if he ascended the throne, he could be with his beloved for the rest of his life.
In the early days of Emperor Xuande, the ministers did not know how poor he was, and they urged him to expand the harem and have children, saying that three princes were too few, and several princesses were already married, so it would be better to have more.
But all of them were pushed back by the emperor. Later, after realizing how poor the emperor was, the ministers no longer urged him.
There were people who urged the crown prince to have a concubine, but that stopped later.
The royal family is so poor, why would they take a few more wives and ask you to support them? As long as they have children, they won't be picky.
