…
After Xiao He married the Empress, he established a rule that a concubine could only be selected if the concubine did not bear children for three years.
If Deng Wanning gives birth to the crown prince within three years, he will not choose any more concubines.
Because of the precedents set by the late emperor and the founding emperor, not many ministers objected when Xiao He made this suggestion.
Moreover, Xiao He holds great power, including military power and the Qilin Guard. The Prime Minister is his man, and the Protector General is from the Empress's maternal family. Therefore, no one would offend Xiao He and the Empress over this matter.
As for those who offered opinions that they felt were inappropriate, they only dared to voice their opinions briefly, and after being refuted, they stopped speaking.
…
Less than three months after their marriage, the couple received good news, but the imperial physician predicted that it was very likely to be twins.
Xiao He was somewhat worried after learning the news, so he sought out Jun Muchen and Wan Ge to discuss how to deal with it.
After Xiao He took power, the country was peaceful and prosperous. In just a few months, he also purged many bad forces. Moreover, he was very lucky. There were no natural disasters after he took power. The weather was favorable and the harvest was abundant.
So Wan Ge came up with a plan for him: on the day Deng Wan Ning gave birth, auspicious clouds would appear, hundreds of birds would pay homage to the phoenix, and ten thousand flowers would bloom.
The birth of twins, a boy and a girl, was considered an auspicious event.
Xiao He also banned the rumor that twins were a scourge. The trouble caused by twins in the past was because the twins were not raised together, but were raised by different concubines, which led to conflicts.
Nowadays, twins will not have any problems as long as they are raised together.
As a result, many twins were finally able to meet.
However, Jun Yuchen had no intention of reclaiming his original identity. He felt that staying by the princess's side as a lowly guard was sufficient. In any case, the princess didn't need him to do anything.
…
"What are you drinking?" Wan Ge smelled a medicinal odor as soon as she returned to her room.
Jun Muchen instantly held the medicine bowl behind his back: "N-nothing...it's nothing..."
Wan Ge snatched the medicine bowl from behind him and smelled what the herbs inside were: "Do you know that drinking too much of this will make you infertile?"
"That's good too, I can stay with you forever."
"No! I want a child with you."
Jun Muchen lowered his head.
Wan Ge then asked, "Why don't you want children?"
There's no need to do this if you just want to live with your partner; it's not like the child will be left unattended.
Jun Muchen spoke with red eyes: "Not long after the marriage, a colleague's wife almost died during childbirth, and I was afraid."
The lady's health was already poor, what if...
When Wan Ge found out, she felt a little helpless: "Don't be afraid, I'll be fine. Don't you want a cute little dumpling chasing after you calling you Daddy?"
Jun Muchen lowered his head again.
Wan Ge coaxed him again, "How about you don't drink anymore?"
"good."
