As soon as Suqiu finished speaking, Xiao Chengying's surprised shout came from outside!
"Ahhh, I heard my little nephew's voice! Is he in the warm room? He seems to be crying, I want to go see him! Third sister, brother-in-law, I will come to see you later, I want to go see my little nephew!"
Immediately afterwards, the sound of a child's footsteps running up the stairs and walking to the side could be heard outside.
Zhu Wuhuan and Feng Changye smiled at each other and couldn't help but look down at the little prince sleeping next to them.
Little nephew?
My little nephew is here, and my niece is in the warm room!
"Now that you're awake, I'll let Suqiu come and help you wash your mouth and eat something."
Feng Changye squeezed Zhu Wuhuan's fingers and said, "I will take the prince away first, so I can go accompany my father-in-law and elder brother."
Zhu Wuhuan nodded, grabbed his sleeve and shook it, "Ask the imperial kitchen to make me some milk-inducing soup. Let the prince eat it as soon as possible. I can't bear to let him starve."
Feng Changye nodded, "Okay."
He rubbed her head, then bent down, picked up the swaddle and turned away.
Zhu Wuhuan saw that Feng Changye was more skilled in holding the child than she was. She looked at his back in confusion.
Why does this guy look so familiar?
Did he practice secretly without her knowledge?
Feng Changye curled his lips proudly and left with his son in his arms.
Of course I have practiced!
Seeing Xiao Yuanzi and Suqiu running to the midwife for advice every day, how could he, as a father, fall behind?
When he got outside the door, Feng Changye saw Zhu Huaining and Zhu Xuanyuan standing there waiting for him in an orderly manner.
He smiled and walked forward to pass the swaddling clothes to Zhu Huaining's arms, "Grandfather, hold our little prince."
"Okay!" Zhu Huaining was immediately happy!
He held the swaddling baby with great joy, looking down at the poor little one with tear marks on his face.
This is his grandson. Like Jun'an and the others, he is his grandson and his sweetheart!
He rocked the little swaddle gently, loving it dearly.
Zhu Xuanyuan, who was standing next to him, was so envious that he gently touched his old father's arm, wanting his father to give him his little nephew to hold.
However, his old father ignored him completely, turned his back to him, and held his grandson in his arms, laughing foolishly.
Zhu Xuanyuan looked at his old father's mountain-like back and looked at Feng Changye helplessly.
He bowed and asked, "Your Majesty, has someone invited the Empress's mother to the palace?"
Feng Changye smiled and nodded. "As soon as the palace gate opened, Xiao Yuanzi sent someone to invite him. He should be here in a quarter of an hour."
Zhu Xuanyuan felt relieved after hearing this.
He looked at the closed door with a gentle look.
He and his old father could not go in to accompany his third sister, but it was different after his mother and the lady entered the palace. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could chat with the third sister and relieve her boredom.
Thinking of his second brother who was still in Anyang, Zhu Xuanyuan felt a little regretful. "What a pity! My second brother is still recuperating in the Anyang Palace and not in the capital. If he knew that the Empress had given birth to twins, he would be so happy."
Feng Changye also thought of Zhu Longyuan.
A few months ago, Zhu Longyuan was ordered to go to announce the good news to Prince Anyang and to go on a blind date with the princess.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped into the Anyang fiefdom, he happened to run into bandits coming down the mountain to harm the people.
When he passed by a village, half of the village was slaughtered and blood flowed like a river!
After he arrived at the Anyang Palace, he immediately wrote a memorial back to the capital, saying that he wanted to stay in Anyang and borrow the troops of the palace and local government to suppress the bandits.
Feng Changye naturally would not refuse, and gave him an imperial decree to allow him to act at his own convenience, allowing him to stay in the local area to eliminate the banditry.
A month ago, Prince Anyang submitted a memorial saying that Zhu Longyuan had eliminated most of the banditry in the fiefdom, but Zhu Longyuan was seriously injured and could not return to the capital, so he had to stay in the palace to recuperate.
Therefore, Zhu Longyuan is still in Anyang Palace and has not returned to Beijing.
Thinking of this, Feng Changye smiled and said, "Second brother has been recovering from his injury for a month, so it should be fine. It just so happens that the little prince and princess are born now, and the Sixth Prince has to go to the capital to congratulate them. Let them leave with Second brother so that they can take care of each other on the way. When Second brother returns, we can just catch up for the full moon banquet for both children."
Zhu Xuanyuan smiled and nodded, "That's right."
As they were talking, little Chengying ran out from the warm room.
His cheeks flushed with excitement, and he immediately hugged Zhu Xuanyuan's legs.
"Brother, come and see! Our little niece is having a great time! The nurses said her belly is bloated and she's eaten enough, so they can't feed her anymore. But she won't do it! She'll cry if we don't feed her!"
He rubbed his eldest brother's leg with joy, "I love my niece so much. She really looks like me, her uncle! The way we cry and make a fuss for food is exactly the same!"
“…” As soon as he said this, the three grown men looked down at him silently.
Are you actually quite proud of it?
Crying for a bite of food doesn't sound like something to be proud of, does it?
Zhu Chengying didn't feel ashamed at all. Grabbing his eldest brother with one hand and his third brother-in-law with the other, he rushed into the warm room.
"Brother, brother-in-law, come with me to see my niece. If you go too late, you won't be able to see her crying for milk!"
Feng Changye and Zhu Xuanyuan were helplessly dragged by him into the warm room.
Zhu Huaining also followed suit.
Although his little grandson is very well-behaved, he likes his granddaughter just as much!
In the warm room, the little princess was indeed crying in her nurse's arms.
Several wet nurses were surrounding her, all laughing so hard.
Seeing Feng Changye come in, they hurriedly saluted and said happily, "Your Majesty, look at the little princess! She is so adorable!"
Feng Changye lowered his head to look at his daughter.
The little girl kept moving her mouth, as if she was looking for the small wooden spoon to feed her. If she couldn't find it, she would cry and howl. After howling, she would move her mouth again to look for the spoon. If she couldn't find it, she would howl again...
Feng Changye also laughed.
He reached out and took the swaddling clothes, then prepared to feed his daughter a little.
The nurse tried to dissuade him, "Your Majesty, the little princess has eaten enough and can't eat any more—"
Feng Changye glanced at the small wooden spoon which was only slightly bigger than his little finger.
Such a small spoon can only scoop up three or five drops of milk, so it won't be a problem for him to feed him with a spoon.
"I'll give her a spoonful and try."
He picked up the delicate little wooden spoon, scooped two drops of milk, and put them in front of his daughter's mouth.
As soon as the little mouth touched the spoon, it immediately held it and sucked it.
After holding the little spoon with milk flavor in his mouth, the little guy stopped crying and sucked it quietly, being as obedient as possible.
But as soon as he pulled the spoon out, the little guy started to cry.
He frowned.
This little thing is really something. It will howl as soon as it has nothing to eat.
He put down the wooden spoon, looked up and asked the nurse, "Should we take the baby to the Queen?"
The nurse blushed and said, "Your Majesty, the little princess is weak and craves milk. I'm afraid she really needs to be sucked to fall asleep... We servants are humble and dare not let the little princess touch us, so we can only let the Queen do the hard work..."
Feng Changye nodded, picked up his daughter without hesitation, and went to find the queen again.
As he walked out, he looked at his chest, and a strange thought suddenly came to his mind -
Why should he go to the queen? If the queen can fool the child, can he do it too?
There’s no milk anyway, so the baby won’t eat the same thing, right?
