Chapter 728 If she gets another boy——
Nan Yan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked: "Why?"
Zhu Feng looked at her: "Why, don't you want to have a son?"
“…”
"You know, from ancient times to the present, there has never been a daughter in the harem who didn't want to give birth to a son."
“…”
Nan Yan was silent for a while, then said with a complicated expression: "Actually, for me, it doesn't matter whether it's a son or a daughter. They are both my sweethearts. It's just that——"
She looked at Zhu Feng.
The one who really cares about the gender of the baby is probably Zhu Feng.
He likes daughters, but still hopes that I can give him a son.
Zhu Feng looked up at her and said calmly, "You're right. Sons and daughters are the same. I like them both."
“…”
"But I still hope you can give me a son. A son for you and me."
“…”
"I've already said that."
Nan Yan suddenly remembered that when she was still in the Jinling Palace, Zhu Feng once told her to quickly give him a son, a son that would belong to both of them.
Before everything is settled.
Nan Yan frowned slightly.
If she said she didn’t understand before, it might be because she didn’t think too deeply about it, but now, she is pregnant with a child, maybe a prince, maybe a princess, she can no longer “not understand”.
Nan Yan was quiet for a long time. For some reason, the sweet and delicious osmanthus cake seemed a little woody in her mouth.
Even, a little astringent.
She whispered, "What if I really give birth to a daughter?"
Zhu Feng glanced at her and said with a faint smile, "Daughter, are you no longer my flesh and blood?"
“…”
"I will love you just the same."
Hearing him say this, Nan Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhu Feng said in a deep voice: "But, I still hope you can give birth to a son."
Nan Yan pinched half a piece of osmanthus cake, and after a long while, she nodded gently: "Yeah."
Zhu Feng smiled: "Eat quickly."
After eating the osmanthus cake, Zhu Feng took her to bed for a nap.
It's been like this these days.
In fact, she knew that if Zhu Feng stayed in Peking, he would be even busier than when he was in Jinling. However, no matter how busy he was, he would always take some time out every day to have dinner with her and sleep with her.
So, out of habit, Nan Yan snuggled into his arms as soon as she lay down.
Zhu Feng also smiled and reached out to hold the skinny girl in his arms, whose belly was already bulging quite a bit, and whispered, "Be careful."
"I know."
Nan Yan rubbed her cheek in his arms, then closed her eyes and soon fell asleep in his familiar, soothing breath.
But after a while, I felt a vibration.
She opened her eyes dazedly and saw Zhu Feng gently placing her hand on the bed. Nan Yan said dazedly, "Your Majesty?"
"Go back to sleep."
"Um……"
"I have something to do."
"oh……"
Zhu Feng lowered his head and pecked her on the forehead: "Be good."
Nan Yan was comforted and closed her eyes again.
She slept until three quarters past noon, and her whole body was limp. Ran Xiaoyu felt that she could not let her sleep like this any longer, so she woke her up.
"My Lady, please get up."
“…”
Nan Yan opened her eyes and looked at her for a long time, then looked at the large empty space beside her, and then whispered, "Where is the emperor?"
"The Emperor has gone to handle state affairs."
"oh……"
Nan Yan lay quietly for a while, then propped up her soft body and sat up.
Although I knew that Zhu Feng was very busy and I shouldn't cause him any trouble, I still felt a little disappointed when I woke up and couldn't see him.
Maybe I'm really pregnant. I always hope that he can be with me every day, right in front of me.
Thinking of this, she reached out and slapped her forehead again.
What are you thinking about?
He is Zhu Feng, and he has important things to do!
Even if she married an ordinary man, she would still have to go out to work every day to support her family. But he was the emperor, and he had to take care of everyone in the world.
How could he be allowed to do nothing all day and just stay by my side? What kind of person would that be?
Thinking of this, she laughed herself.
After getting up and combing my hair, I received some pregnancy-maintaining medicine from the kitchen.
Nan Yan complained as usual, but then drank it obediently. Her little face wrinkled because of the bitterness. Ran Xiaoyu hurriedly offered her some candied fruit.
At this moment, Xiao Shunzi came.
"Your Highness."
"Xiao Shunzi, what's wrong?"
"Master Gu requests an audience."
"uncle?"
Nan Yan opened her eyes wide and saw Gu Tingqiu's figure appear at the gate of the courtyard not far away from the door.
Nan Yan hurriedly said, "Please come in."
Gu Tingqiu walked in from outside and knelt before her, saying, "Greetings, Your Majesty the Imperial Concubine."
"Uncle, please don't be so polite. Please stand up."
This is not the Jinling Imperial Palace, and the division between the harem and the outer court is not so strict, so it is easier for Gu Tingqiu to see her than to ask to see the imperial concubine in the palace.
But etiquette cannot be abolished.
He bowed politely, and Nan Yan pointed to a chair nearby and said, "Uncle, please take a seat."
Gu Tingqiu apologized and then sat diagonally in a corner of the chair.
He said, "Before, I heard that the imperial concubine had met with misfortune, and I was terrified. Fortunately, the imperial concubine was blessed by heaven and returned safely."
Nan Yan smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have made my uncle worried."
"I dare not."
Gu Tingqiu raised his head again, his face showing an expression of uncontrollable joy: "I also heard that the queen is pregnant."
Nan Yan also laughed, looked down at her already bulging belly, and nodded slightly.
"Um."
"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty."
"Thank you, uncle."
It is also good to have someone to share joy with, and Gu Tingqiu's joy is naturally increased.
With this child, Nan Yan's position in the harem became more stable.
If she gets another boy——
As for the Si family and the Gu family, let alone being able to get back on their feet, I'm afraid they will immediately become even more prosperous, like icing on the cake, and their fortunes will be as bright as a raging fire.
Nan Yan smiled and said, "By the way, what has my uncle been doing these days?"
"These days, I am supervising the construction of the city wall in the east of the city."
"Oh," Nan Yan nodded with a smile. "When I passed through Peking, I saw that the construction project was progressing smoothly. Uncle is doing a great job."
Gu Tingqiu said, "Your Majesty, your compliments are too kind."
"Then why did you come here today?"
"Because of a small matter, I have to come back to report to the emperor and request the deployment of troops. By the way, I also came to see the queen."
"Mobilize troops?"
When Nan Yan heard these two words, her expression froze slightly.
After all, we are in Peking, which is different from when we were in Nanjing.
When it comes to mobilizing troops, the tragic scene of the Battle of Peking half a year ago immediately emerged in her mind.
He immediately asked nervously, "What happened?"
