At this time, Xiao Jinyan had grown stubble due to leading troops in battles for several days, but it did not affect his appearance at all.

He took the letter from Shuying and opened it neatly.

Seeing the familiar title, Dear Prince, one would always add, Dear Husband.

He finally understood the state of mind that one can see a person by his words.

After seeing the letter, I wanted to return to Beijing as soon as possible to reunite with her.

The Queen Mother already knows that Xiaojiu is pregnant.

From Xiaojiu's tone, we can tell that the Queen Mother is very happy.

Of course, the Queen Mother has wanted to hold her grandson for a long time. Now that she has a grandson, how can she not be happy? When he saw the last sentence, he was stunned.

The Queen Mother doesn't plan to tell the Father now, as she hopes he will regret it.

Xiao Jinyan raised the corners of his lips slightly, which was exactly what he wanted.

It's time to let father know how wrong he was.

However, since this matter was done by the Queen Mother, it was more logical and the Emperor Father couldn't do anything to her.

He suddenly looked forward to the birth of his son. He wanted to hold his son as his father but couldn't, and he wanted to see the scenes that his mother wouldn't let him see.

Xiao Jinyan felt much more at ease when he learned that his mother was protecting Shen Chuwei.

Otherwise, he would be restless day and night.

When he saw the word "twins", he was stunned for a long time.

Afraid that I had seen it wrong, I looked at it carefully several times before I confirmed that Xiaojiu was pregnant with twins, two babies in one pregnancy.

Xiao Jinyan was extremely excited. He actually had two children at once? He paced back and forth, looking down and staring at the sentence again and again.

Jinyan, sit still. I’m going to tell you something next. Don’t get too excited.

I have two babies in my belly, twins.

Surprise? Actually, I wanted to tell you when you came back.

As the ancients said, when people are happy, they feel refreshed and will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort on the battlefield.

Xiao Jinyan felt that since he met Xiaojiu, he had been constantly surprised.

Even now, he has not recovered from the joy of becoming a father for the first time.

Shuying took out a sachet and a white jade bottle from her bosom and presented them with both hands, "Master, this is from Shen Liangdi to you."

Xiao Jinyan turned his head to look at the thing in Shuying's hand, took it with curiosity, and looked at it in front of him.

All the things Xiaojiu gave him last time came in handy.

Especially self-heating rice. Last time, the soldiers were lurking near the enemy and couldn’t make a fire. They relied on self-heating rice to survive those two days.

Because of this, the raid was successful without being discovered by the enemy.

The use of sachets can refresh the mind.

As for the thing in the white jade bottle, it is anesthetic.

Xiao Jinyan laughed softly, and she also prepared anesthetic for herself.

Do you really think he is so weak?

Xiao Jinyan also wrote back to Shen Chuwei.

It was several days later when Shen Chuwei received the letter.

When I woke up, I received a letter from Xiao Jinyan and I immediately became sober.

She couldn't wait to open the letter. It was still short and word-for-word.

She got used to it too.

He said he was already on his way when she received the letter.

Just like last time, Shen Chuwei folded the letter and put it together with the other two letters.

When Shen Chuwei heard the voice, she turned her head and looked out the window, and saw Xiao Jinyu with a handsome face that looked very similar to Xiao Jinyan.

Who else could it be other than the idiot Xiao Jinyu?

Under the scorching sun, sweat was pouring down his back, and his tender cheeks were tinged with red.

Shen Chuwei asked in confusion: "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to see my sister-in-law." Xiao Jinyu raised his hands, which were hidden underneath, and showed two bags of food. His peach blossom eyes curved, "I didn't come here empty-handed."

Shen Chuwei saw the two bags of food and was so greedy that she said, "You are getting better and better."

Then he took the two packages with a smile and opened them impatiently. He found that they contained roast duck patties, which he hadn't eaten for half a month.

She picked up a piece of meat pie and took a bite.

Xiao Jinyu took out a folding fan and fanned himself. He was so hot after running all the way.

Seeing Shen Chuwei eating happily, he took out something from his arms and showed it to Shen Chuwei like a treasure, "Sister-in-law, what do you think I bought for the baby?"

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

Shen Chuwei took the time to look up at Xiao Jinyan, and saw that in his hand was a brand new rattle, small and exquisite, very suitable for babies of a few months old to play with.

She freed one hand to hold the rattle, "…buying a rattle so early?"

Xiao Jinyu looked very proud: "I saw it and bought it. You can shake it for your baby to hear when you have nothing to do."

"..." Shen Chuwei: "Okay, I'll rock it for the baby when I'm fine."

"Sister-in-law, what kind of wooden horse do you think the baby would like? Big or small? Ebony or rosewood?" Xiao Jinyu pondered for a long time, then said, "How about Huanghuali?"

Shen Chuwei touched her belly. The baby was still there for five months. She looked up at Xiao Jinyu who was still worried and tangled. "...Prince Yu, it's still early."

"It's getting late. It will take a long time to make a wooden horse. Sister-in-law, what kind of wood do you think is good?" Xiao Jinyu couldn't wait to make the wooden horse right away.

Seeing Xiao Jinyu so enthusiastic, Shen Chuwei didn't want to discourage her, so she simply chose one, "...Huanghuali?"

Xiao Jinyu's eyes lit up, "I also think Huanghuali is good, so let's go with Huanghuali."

Once the decision was made, Xiao Jinyu couldn't wait to sneak back and start selecting the best huanghuali wood.

Miss Han saw Xiao Jinyu busying around these days, and now she saw him asking someone to carry a piece of wood back.

"What are you doing?"

When Xiao Jinyu saw Miss Han coming out, he smiled and explained, "I plan to make a wooden horse."

A trace of doubt flashed in Miss Han's eyes: "Why do you want to make a Trojan horse?"

Xiao Jinyu's peach blossom eyes curved, and her voice was full of pride: "Being a wooden horse for my future nephew."

Miss Han was stunned when she heard this. Seeing Xiao Jinyu sweating profusely, with beads of sweat on his forehead, she frowned and took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat. "There's no need to do it now. It's so hot today. Can't you wait until it's cooler?"

"I'm free now, right? It'll look good if I make it sooner and put it there." Xiao Jinyu said and started to measure the size.

Miss Han paused in her wiping motion and said, "Look at how anxious you are. If someone didn't know, they would think you were making a Trojan horse for your son."

Xiao Jinyu smiled and said, "A nephew is almost like a son. I'm just waiting to become the emperor's uncle."

Miss Han withdrew her hand, lowered her eyes and looked at Xiao Jinyu who was busy with his work with his head down, her expression looking a little unhappy.

* After the East Palace regained its former glory, various news began to spread.

Chang Liangyuan asked: "Are you serious? Does the Queen really go to Xiaoxiang Pavilion so often?"

"It's true, my lady. She has been running more frequently during this period. The Queen should be in Xiaoxiang Pavilion right now." Huaixiang said.

Chang Liangyuan hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go and take a look."

At this time, in Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Shen Chuwei had just woken up from her nap when she heard Chunxi say that the Queen had arrived.

Before she could ask, the bright red phoenix robe appeared before her eyes.

She was about to step forward to greet him, but was stopped by the Queen, "You are pregnant now, so please move slowly. These formalities are unnecessary."
