After gently stroking the two children's cheeks one by one, Feng Changye stood up.
He turned and looked at the four wet nurses serving here.
When the queen was more than four months pregnant, he and his father-in-law began to select wet nurses. There were dozens of wet nurses in total, all of whom had a clean background, good conduct, and good health. They had never been infected with any serious illness since childhood.
These four had the best physical fitness among dozens of wet nurses, so they were allowed to stay.
He glanced at the four wet nurses.
He was afraid that they would become restless, so he warned them in advance.
"The little princess is the apple of my eye, my sweetheart. In my heart, she is no less capable than the little prince. On the contrary, because she is thinner than the little prince, I love and pamper her even more."
"Therefore, you must serve the little princess more attentively than you serve the little prince. No one is allowed to look down on my little princess. You are not allowed to use your son-in-law system to treat my children. My daughter is a pearl, not a piece of trash."
He glanced at the four people with cold dignity.
"Everyone, remember my words carefully. If I find out that you dare to disrespect the little princess or treat her inappropriately, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless!"
The four wet nurses were so frightened that they immediately knelt down and kowtowed.
"We servants will never dare to look down on the little princess. We will serve her well and treat her the same as we would the little prince!"
After shocking them, Feng Changye felt relieved.
The main reason was that the little princess was a daughter, and the current environment favored boys over girls. He was afraid that everyone would compete to take care of his son and ignore his daughter.
Besides, his daughter has not grown up yet and is indeed not as pretty as his son. People are visual animals. He is afraid that these servants will focus more on his adorable son and pay less attention to his daughter.
He bent down and touched the little princess's cheek lovingly.
He and the Queen could laugh at their daughter because they were her parents. They could laugh at her jokes with a bad taste when she didn't understand.
But no one else is allowed to look down on his daughter!
His daughter, even if she is not pretty, is still his treasure!
He held his daughter's little hand lovingly and asked the nurses, "Have you fed the little prince and princess?"
The four wet nurses quickly replied, "Your Majesty, we've already fed them. The little princess eats more than the little prince, mouthful after mouthful, and he's eating with great joy. But the little prince, I don't know if he's not hungry or what, he only takes two bites when we feed him."
At this point, the four wet nurses felt a little uneasy.
After all, if the master refuses to drink their milk, they are of no use.
They hurriedly added nervously, "The four of us servants went to try, but the little prince only took two sips of each person's milk and refused to drink any more. We have already reported this to Miss Suqiu and the imperial physician. The imperial physician said that maybe he is not hungry after all. We will see how he performs tomorrow."
After hearing this, Feng Changye raised his eyebrows in surprise.
He looked down at his son who was sleeping soundly.
Oh, he refuses to drink milk from any of the four wet nurses?
Is this because he is not hungry, or does he just want to eat the queen?
This kid, can't he really recognize that this is not his mother's scent, so he resists and refuses to eat it?
Thinking about how the kid had been crying non-stop in the midwife's arms, but stopped crying as soon as he was in his arms, he suddenly became interested!
It's not impossible!
A baby that has absorbed the effects of the pregnancy pill may be born with sharp five senses. Is that why they are so different?
Tsk tsk, he wants to see it for himself tomorrow!
...the next day.
Before dawn, Feng Changye was awakened by the baby's loud crying.
“Woo-wa-wa-wa-wa-”
He suddenly opened his eyes.
Recognizing his son's loud voice, he immediately threw off the thin blanket, sat up from the small couch, frowned, and strode towards the warm room.
He did not go back to the main room to sleep last night, but spent the night on the small couch outside the warm room.
Because this place was right between the queen's room and the two children's room, he wanted to be closer to the three of them, and he wanted to protect them.
He was busy in the first half of the night and didn't sleep. He finally fell asleep and was sleeping soundly when he suddenly heard a child crying. He felt sorry for the child and couldn't sleep anymore.
"Why are you crying?" he asked as he walked.
Xiao Yuanzi, the personal attendant, followed his steps closely and said, "Your Majesty, the little prince and princess are hungry, and the wet nurses are feeding them."
Feng Changye was about to push open the door, but when he heard this, he stopped.
He raised his chin slightly and gestured to Xiao Yuanzi.
Xiao Yuanzi understood immediately that the emperor was afraid of seeing the wet nurses in disheveled clothes!
He thought to himself that in other families, the wives observe the virtues of women, but in the emperor's family, it is the emperor who observes the virtues of men. He is simply a model of male virtue!
"The Emperor has arrived—"
He shouted loudly, and immediately there was a rustling sound from inside.
Feng Changye heard his inner thoughts, glanced at him indifferently, and was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Ever since he learned to read other people's minds, he discovered that his chief eunuch may seem very obedient, but his damned mental activities are no less than those of the queen!
Fortunately, he had trained under the Queen and was able to keep his emotions under control.
Soon, the two idle wet nurses opened the door from the inside and knelt down to pay their respects.
Feng Changye looked up and looked at the other two wet nurses holding babies in the room.
The wet nurse who was holding the little princess was feeding her with a small wooden spoon.
Because of the royal rules, wet nurses were not allowed to let the noble dragon sons and grandsons touch their bodies, so they had to squeeze the food into bowls to feed the masters.
At this moment, the little princess was eating happily with a wooden spoon in her mouth. She was drinking it in big gulps. It was great.
But the little prince next to him was completely different.
He frowned and cried loudly in sadness. He didn't swallow the milk that his nanny fed him, and spit it out all over his mouth and chin. The nanny was busy wiping his mouth.
"Your Majesty, the little prince still refuses to eat!"
Seeing Feng Changye come in, the wet nurse knelt down anxiously.
"The four servants each squeezed a bowl of milk and placed it here, and fed it to the little prince one by one, but the little prince refused to eat. He would spit it out as soon as he put it in his mouth..."
Feng Changye felt heartbroken when he saw his son crying with tears all over his face.
He walked over quickly, picked up his son who was crying loudly and held him in his arms.
He looked down at his son, rocking him gently and coaxing him softly, "Good boy, don't cry, father will hug you, don't cry...good boy..."
Unfortunately, the little guy who stopped crying in his arms last night didn't give him any face today.
Even though he was rocking her so gently, the little one still howled at the top of his lungs, tears still streaming down his face.
This made him very anxious!
"You're crying like this, are you hungry?"
He glanced at the four bowls of milk on the table, then looked down at his crying son.
"You don't want to eat your wet nurse, right? Then, can your father carry you to find your mother? Let's see if she's awake and ask her for food."
