Chapter 369 Chapter 369 Xiao Susu grabbed the emperor's finger, and the emperor happily gave her a title (plus more)



There was plenty of red charcoal in the bedroom, and I felt a lot warmer as soon as I came in.

Shen Chuwei had been recuperating for a few days, so getting out of bed and performing the ceremony was no problem for him.

She stepped forward and bowed, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, may you be blessed with good health and longevity."

The queen took a few steps forward and helped Shen Chuwei up. "You are still in confinement after childbirth, so you don't need to be polite. Go to bed and rest."

"Thank you, Queen." Shen Chuwei went back to bed at the Queen's urging.

After the emperor came in, he glanced around the room and saw the crib. He walked over and found that the bed was empty. He frowned.

"What about the grandchildren? Where are they?"

Xiao Jinyan said: "Replying to Father, the nurse has taken the baby to the side hall to feed him."

The emperor came specially to see his grandchildren, but he came at the wrong time. The two little ones were drinking milk in a side hall.

Now all we can do is wait.

The queen came to the bed with an exquisite gift box and sat down. As she opened the box, she said, "Shen Liang Di, I ordered two longevity locks for the babies at the Imperial Crafts Department. Take a look at them."

Shen Chuwei looked at the gift box in the queen's hand. It was dark red in color, with intricate carvings on it. The gift box alone was very luxurious.

She picked up a longevity lock out of curiosity. The jewelry made by ancient master craftsmen was no worse than modern ones.

The gold lock is small and exquisitely made.

The one in her hand was carved with a dragon pattern.

The other one is carved with a phoenix pattern, and the two put together make a perfect pair.

The Queen stared at the dragon and phoenix longevity lock in Shen Chuwei's hand and said, "At first I didn't expect it to be twins, a boy and a girl. Thinking that the dragon and the phoenix represent good luck, I asked the Imperial Crafts Department to customize a dragon and phoenix longevity lock."

"That shows that the Queen has foresight. The two longevity locks are very beautiful." Shen Chuwei praised generously.

Every time the Queen delivered something on time, as long as Shen Chuwei approved, she felt a great sense of accomplishment.

Because she felt that as long as Shen Chuwei liked it, the babies would definitely like it too.

The emperor sat on the couch, drinking the new tea brought by Chunxi and listening to the queen and Shen Liangdi chatting, and he discovered a problem.

The Queen not only knew that Shen Liangdi was pregnant, but also knew that she was pregnant with twins.

Prince Yu'er probably knew about this a long time ago.

Only he, the emperor, didn't know.

It would be a lie to say I'm not angry.

It would be fine if others kept it from him, but the Queen kept it from him, and that’s what made him depressed.

They are husband and wife! The more the emperor thought about it, the more depressed he became, and the queen became less and less concerned about him.

He sighed again in his heart.

Xiao Jinyan stood aside and listened to the emperor's inner thoughts.

Who could have thought that the ruler of a country, who is so high and mighty, would care so much about his wife and do so much to protect her.

This is also why there has never been a shortage of favored concubines in the harem. After Concubine Ning was gone, there was Concubine He, and now it is Concubine He.

Being promoted from a talented person to a concubine in such a short period of time was enough to make the women in the harem jealous.

As expected, she soon became a concubine.

Xiao Jinyan looked at his mother. His father had never told her what he was thinking, so naturally he didn't get a response from her.

In the eyes of my mother, my father was just a man obsessed with beauty, with women on both sides, and he married her only to consolidate his position as the crown prince.

Xiao Jinyan looked at Xiaojiu again. He would not be like his father. He would not let Xiaojiu misunderstand, nor would he let Xiaojiu think that she was just one of his many women.

At this time, the wet nurse came back holding Taotao Susu. Seeing that the emperor and the empress were all there, the wet nurse hurried forward to pay her respects.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, may you live in peace and happiness."

The emperor was drinking tea in a depressed mood. When he saw the nurse coming with her grandchild, he immediately put down the teacup in his hand and ordered, "Bring the granddaughter here and let me see her."

The wet nurse dared not be negligent when the emperor specifically asked for his granddaughter. She hurriedly carried Susu to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor's granddaughter is awake."

Because it was winter, Susu was wrapped in a small quilt, tightly.

The emperor looked at the pink and tender little face, which was the size of his palm, and the pair of black eyes were staring at him without blinking.

"Give me a hug."

"Yes." The wet nurse handed the Susu to the emperor.

The emperor couldn't wait to hold his granddaughter in his arms. It had been a long time since he held such a small baby in his arms, so he held her very carefully.

Susu kept her eyes open and watched. Her chubby little hands somehow struggled out from under the quilt and waved around wildly.

The emperor had held many princes, but since he had no daughter, the imperial granddaughter was the first girl he had ever held.

Seeing his granddaughter's hand, the emperor stretched out his fingers, which were grabbed by his granddaughter.

Don’t underestimate Susu’s small size. Once she gets hold of something, she will never let go.

The emperor laughed happily, "Queen, look, my granddaughter is holding my finger."

The queen also came over and found it amusing to see her granddaughter holding the emperor's hand.

Although the emperor was angry, anyone who saw the scene would burst out laughing.

The emperor said happily again: "Queen, look, my granddaughter smiled at me."

I saw Susu with curved eyes and a grinning little mouth, smiling very sweetly.

Before, when the Queen said that her granddaughter could laugh, he didn’t believe it.

Now I see that his granddaughter’s smile is so sweet, and she really looks like Hibiscus Cake.

Susu looks very much like Xiaojiu.

The Queen raised her head and looked at the Crown Prince, "Prince, have the babies been named yet?"

Xiao Jinyan said, "My dear mother, Shen Liang Di gave the babies nicknames. The older brother is Taotao and the younger sister is Susu."

"Tao Tao? Su Su?" The queen immediately thought of Tao Su. "Tao Su, isn't that something to eat?"

Xiao Jinyan said: "Yes, mother."

The emperor looked at his granddaughter's chubby little hands holding his hands and grinning, and he laughed too.

"Susu, it sounds nice."

The Queen silently said Susu in her heart, "I also think it sounds nice, but Taotao, I also think it sounds like a girl's name."

Xiao Jinyan explained: "Mother, Taotao can be regarded as the naughty Tao, which is very suitable for a boy baby."

"This explanation is not bad." The queen held Taotao over. Unlike Susu, Taotao was sleeping soundly.

"Taotao is sleeping so soundly."

The emperor stared at Susu and was reluctant to look away. He took the time to look at Taotao, and just as the queen said, she was sleeping soundly.

The emperor stared at Susu for a while, smiling: "Susu didn't sleep, it must be because she knew I was coming to see her. Look at her eyes, it seems like they can speak. If they could speak, she would definitely call me Grandpa."

The queen couldn't help but roll her eyes. The dog emperor only knew how to flatter himself. What did such a young child know? The emperor called out, "Susu."

Shen Chuwei sat at the head of the bed, looking at the emperor and empress holding the two children. It felt like ordinary grandparents doting on their granddaughters and grandsons.

She yawned and wanted to sleep, but the emperor and empress were still there, so she didn't dare to sleep.

The emperor held Susu in his arms and was reluctant to let go. Even when the little girl fell asleep, her little hand was still holding onto the emperor's fingers.

Because of this, the emperor liked her more and more the more he looked at her, and he wanted to take Susu to the imperial study so that he could see her all the time.

In the end, it was the Queen who reminded the Emperor that it was time to leave, because she saw Shen Chuwei dozing off with his eyes fighting each other.

The wet nurse was about to take Susu and put her back in the crib, but the emperor glared at her and she took a few steps back in fear.

The emperor personally carried Susu to the crib and placed Susu next to Taotao. Looking at the two babies, they looked very similar, worthy of being twins, boy and girl.

The emperor reluctantly followed the queen.

After leaving the Hehuan Palace, the emperor still had a smile on his face: "Empress, do Susu and I look a bit alike?"

The queen couldn't help rolling her eyes and said, "Susu is definitely not like you. Look in the mirror. Susu is so cute. It's impossible for her to look like you."

"Susu is very cute!" Dog Emperor, are you cute? How shameless!

The emperor added: "As the saying goes, a granddaughter looks like her grandfather. This is absolutely true."

Queen: "..." When did this saying come about? Why haven't I heard of it? The emperor didn't notice the queen's disgusted expression. He asked, "Queen, what title do you think should be given to Susu?"

Being named the Crown Prince's Granddaughter is already the highest honor, and now adding this title can be said to be the first in history.

Although I dislike the dog emperor, I can still choose a good one if I want to give him a title.

The queen thought for a long time and said, "How about choosing Anle?"

"Anle, peace and happiness." The emperor thought for a while and said, "That's right, let's name Anle, and we will promote him together at the full moon banquet."

"Shen Liang Di is really good at naming. Susu is such a nice name." The Queen thought of her grandson again. "Taotao is also good. Boys can be a little naughty."

The emperor nodded in agreement, and then he thought of something.

"Empress, the Crown Prince wants to make Shen Liangdi the Crown Princess."

The queen paused and thought that the prince’s idea was understandable.

"Did the Emperor agree?"

The emperor said helplessly: "How can it be so easy to appoint a crown princess? Shen Liangdi doesn't even have a backer. The crown princess is the future queen, so we can't be careless."

The Queen said, "I think it would be good for Shen Liang Di to be the Crown Princess, and Tao Tao Su Su can legitimately be the eldest son or daughter. There is a huge difference between legitimate and illegitimate children."

Hearing this, the emperor sighed again: "What the queen said makes sense. If Susu is a legitimate daughter, her status will be different. Let me think about it again."

As soon as the emperor and empress left, Shen Chuwei could no longer hold on and fell asleep.

Xiao Jinyan looked at his son and daughter. Judging from his father's behavior just now, he liked Susu more than Taotao.

She was named the Crown Prince's Granddaughter as soon as she was born.

If the son was poor and the mother was noble, it would be easier for Xiaojiu to become the Crown Princess.

In the dead of night

Shen Chuwei, who was sleeping soundly, was suddenly awakened by a bloating and pain.

She groaned uncomfortably.

Xiao Jinyan had been a light sleeper these days and woke up when he heard Xiaojiu humming.

With the light of the night pearl on the bedside table, I could see Xiaojiu frowning, as if he was feeling uncomfortable.

"Xiaojiu, what's wrong with you?"

Shen Chuwei groaned uncomfortably: "It hurts here, it hurts so much."

Xiao Jinyan looked towards the place where Xiao Jiu pointed. He reached out and touched it, and found that there was a large wet spot on his clothes on his chest.
