Li Shushu did not go to see the execution on the day.
As a weak woman, she could not bear to see the bloody scene.
It is said that the current emperor was merciful and only executed the leaders of the rebellion. As for some subordinates and soldiers who were just following orders, as long as they admitted their crimes with a good attitude, he gave them a chance to reform.
However, even so, dozens of heads fell to the ground, and it was said that the scene was a river of blood.
At this point, no one in the court would dare to harbor even the slightest thought of rebellion!
I can be safe for a long time.
Liu and Li Wanwan were not on the beheading list because Liu had been divorced by Prime Minister Li and did not participate in the rebellion.
However, one of them is disabled and the other is stupid. It is said that they were driven out of their mother's family a long time ago. This is because when Liu was the prime minister's wife, she rarely gave any feedback except threatening her mother's family to give her money.
Now that they have fallen from a high position, except for their deceased biological parents, everyone else in their mother's family no longer likes them.
Occasionally, she heard gossip from Zhen'er and Zhu'er outside that the mother and daughter were begging at the city gate with a broken bowl. She didn't know whether it was true or not, but Li Shushu no longer cared.
During this period, the empress dowager heard that the seventh prince Gu Jingheng had requested to go to the border. Although she was a little reluctant, the emperor readily agreed.
Li Shushu naturally wouldn't say anything, she just thought it was unknown.
…
Winter passed and spring came. After Gu Yichen turned one year old, he could already stand and walk, and could also babble.
He has the best qualities of both his parents. He is smart and clever, and his appearance is surprisingly soft and cute.
He kept calling "Huhuang, Huhuang" all day long, which made his father Gu Jingyan play with him every day and couldn't let him go. It was common for him to be carried to court from time to time, or to sit on his lap while he reviewed memorials.
Li Shushu would sometimes laugh when she saw this. Her exclusive place had finally been snatched away by someone else...
On the New Year's Eve banquet when Gu Yichen was two years old, the emperor summoned the royal family and some of the emperor's close ministers to have a feast together.
Because of the generosity of the current emperor and empress, some officials brought their families to the banquet. The place was filled with children laughing and running around, making it very lively.
Occasionally, they would see some clever little lolis with two little buns on their heads and wearing small skirts. They were soft and cute, and spoke in a coquettish voice. Li Shushu and Gu Jingyan could never take their eyes off them, their faces full of envy!
People are always greedy. When they don’t have a son, they hope to have one. After having a son, they also hope to have a daughter, and have both a son and a daughter.
Maybe after having a son and a daughter, they will hope to have many children?
Fortunately, they don’t have the problem of manpower to look after the children, and the issue of feeding is not even a consideration!
…
On New Year's Eve, the two were happy and drank some wine.
Gu Jingyan followed Li Shushu back to Fengyi Palace as usual.
The nanny was sensible and had already taken little Yichen to his room to coax him to sleep.
After the surroundings fell silent, Gu Jingyan's sticky eyes were reluctant to leave Li Shushu's pretty face.
Because she had to meet with officials, Li Shushu, who was already the queen, was naturally dressed up by her servants today. She wore a golden phoenix robe that swayed on the ground, highlighting her graceful figure. Her bun was decorated with peonies of various sizes, and embellished with phoenix-shaped gold hairpins and matching hairpins. She looked elegant and graceful in every move.
The peony-shaped flower ornament on her forehead made her already beautiful face even more stunning. Gu Jingyan couldn't take his eyes off her and could never get tired of looking at her...
As their ears rubbed against each other, Li Shushu felt that he was hesitant to speak...
She understood his dilemma: he must have seen other people's children and felt envious, wanting to have another one with her, but then he remembered that he had promised her not to have another one. After all, a man's words are not a joke...
Is he embarrassed to hit himself in the face?
Ever since Li Shushu had spent so much time with the Crown Prince, her maternal instinct had been aroused to the fullest. She had no resistance to infants to begin with, but now, seeing the king of a country hesitating in front of her, her heart softened...
She stretched out her arms and gently hooked them around his neck. She smiled softly and shyly and said, "Your Majesty, how about..., we have another princess?"
This remark hit the mark of Gu Jingyan's heart, and he was delighted. "That's good, but I'm worried about Shu'er..., it will be hard..., and besides, I promised you..."
"It's okay. I heard that the first child will be more difficult, but the subsequent ones will be easier..." Li Shushu comforted him.
"Really? Then I'll listen to Shu'er..." He was ecstatic...
Coupled with her charming look at this moment, he felt that his bones were soft.
That night, he worked even harder...
That night, Li Shushu secretly took a pill, but it was not the Pregnancy Pill, but the One-Fetus-Multiple-Treasures Pill.
She thought that this guy might want to have more children later. Instead of going through the trouble of getting pregnant and having children over and over again, why not just have more at once?
Maybe, I can give everyone a surprise?
Before giving birth, she was still vaguely worried. What if there was no princess among the twins?
She felt like she had started a huge gamble, she was crazy!
After taking the Yitaiduobao Pill, Li Shushu knew that she would be able to give birth again in ten months, so she felt at ease waiting for the birth.
But that person was completely unaware of it.
During that period, he worked extremely hard and sold his labor cheaply.
Like a little bee that doesn't know how to work, it keeps circling around Li Shushu all day long.
It is also like a diligent old ox, which plows the fertile land hard as soon as it gets the chance, trying to produce more grain.
Sure enough, not long after, the good news they had been waiting for came again - the imperial physician said that the queen was pregnant again!
