It's almost May.
It's getting hot, and Huan Yue is wearing less clothing, making his belly quite noticeable.
There will be a banquet for the Dragon Boat Festival, so it's quite busy.
Huan Yue couldn't go out, so he stayed in Qing'e Palace, and all sorts of things were reported to her.
Princess Changning and Princess Guangning are both grown up and are helping out at Qing'e Palace.
This is similar to a girl learning to manage a household.
Anyway, Princess Changning is sixteen years old. Although she is spoiled, she is also very smart and can understand many things clearly.
Princess Guangning is fourteen years old. Her talent is not wasted; she can write whatever she wants, and she is more useful than a female official.
They thought it was more convenient to study in the Eastern Palace than in the inner palace, because without the Empress, Imperial Noble Consort, and other powerful figures like the Palace Attendants and the Yeting Palace, the princesses couldn't easily interfere in their affairs. This was the only convenient place.
The eunuch, covered in sweat, ran in to report: "Princess Peng is pregnant!"
Huan Yue was taken aback.
Princess Changning exclaimed excitedly, "My sister-in-law is pregnant!"
Huan Yue shouted, "How is he?"
The eunuch smiled and said, "Mother and child are both doing well now."
Huan Yue nodded: "Then let your sister-in-law rest well. Chaoyun, prepare a generous gift to send over."
Chao Yun smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't move. I'm ready to show you."
Princess Changning said, "My mother should already know, so I don't need to prepare anything."
Huan Yue said, "Let Bao Se go and take a look."
Princess Changning said, "Second sister-in-law, don't worry, I'll take Fufu, my eighth brother, ninth brother, and tenth brother with me."
Huan Yue then ordered a carriage to be prepared. Princesses and princes had to be extremely careful when going out together, even near the palace.
Hachiro, Kyuro, and Juro ran over together.
Shilang certainly doesn't need to climb anymore; he even carefully helped his second sister-in-law when they reached her.
Balang asked his second sister-in-law, "Is your eldest sister-in-law going to have a nephew?"
Huan Yue said, "It could be a nephew or a niece."
Oh. Hachiro isn't in a good mood.
Jiulang was very happy: "We want to send some things to our little nephew and niece."
Hachiro asked, "What should I give?"
Yan Boxuan shouted, "Of course, I'm delivering saplings! I just dug them up!"
Huan Yue looked at them; they were freshly dug up, and they should be able to be planted this season.
Juro asked, "Why are you giving me a peach tree?"
Yan Boxuan said to his uncle, "We can eat peaches. We can also dry peaches."
You can also see peach blossoms, so peach trees are quite nice. If you throw a peach pit on the ground, many seedlings may grow.
Huan Yue watched as the saplings and the children packed them up and left. He was still happy.
In the book, neither King Peng nor Wen Miao had a good ending; now, the two have a child; things will surely get better and better in the future.
Was Prince Peng held back by Pei Huanying? Pei Huanying has already been reincarnated.
Wen Miao was held back by Xie Liu? Xie Liu was held back enough by himself.
However, Xie Yu also has someone who truly loves him, and perhaps he and Yan Shu will grow old together in the future.
Di Baose, who had no children of her own, brought a group of children to see Princess Peng, who was pregnant.
The Prince Peng's residence was incredibly lively, probably as lively as when he took a concubine.
Having children is different from taking a concubine; having children means the future is probably secure. Not having children always means less of a future.
Peng Wang Xie Jian was busy entertaining them. He was always low-key, but quite a few people came.
I'm really happy that my younger siblings can come.
Soon, Consort Shen, Consort Xing, and Qian Sha arrived together with the Seventh Princess, the Eighth Princess, and the Ninth Princess.
This is the intention of the eldest son's branch, even though the crown prince is the legitimate heir.
The three little princesses also made for a very lively time.
The Seventh Princess was in poor health, but the Tai Ning Princess was quite mischievous, and the Ninth Princess was no less so.
The Ninth Princess hasn't even celebrated her first birthday yet, and it's already this lively.
Hachiro, Kyuro, and Juro used to fight, but now they have to act like older brothers in front of their younger sister.
Yan Boxuan, being the eldest, was busy looking after his younger uncle and aunt, sweating profusely.
Wenmiao sat to one side, laughing heartily. Her mother laughed too.
This is popularity. Regardless of what Peng Wang is like, this popularity is enough.
The saints bestow the greatest rewards.
A long while later, a large pile was sent from the Wu King's Palace.
Princess Yongqing came in person, not afraid of tiring Princess Peng.
Wenmiao is alright, but he sent too many things! It won't be long before he can sort them all out.
Once the baby is born, everyone will be busy. If it's a son, then there will be even more to do.
Wenmiao thought having a daughter was fine too. He could have a daughter first, then a son. Whatever he had, that was fine.
A moment later, a palace attendant came to report: "Master Taixu has arrived."
Wen Miao remained expressionless: "I won't see you."
The eunuch said, "He said he had something to give you."
Wenmiao said, "Take it, smash it. Even the sturdiest things can be smashed."
Di Baose exclaimed excitedly, "I'm going!"
Yan Boxuan shouted, "I'll go!"
Wenmiao said, "None of you should go."
Then a servant ran in to report: "The Duke of Qi and the King of Zheng bumped into each other at the door and smashed the bronze pot given to them by the Immortal Taixu into a piece of bronze."
Wenmiao nodded.
Princess Changning laughed. She knew her sister-in-law wasn't like that; it was this Master Taixu who was too shameless.
Why does he have to try and associate himself with royalty? Is this the way of a Taoist practitioner? He's practicing an evil path; may he be struck dead by lightning someday.
Xie Qian and Xie Zhen came over to greet their sister-in-law, and then went to talk to their elder brother.
The Prince Peng's Mansion is really lively today.
The Duke of Qi's mansion and the Prince of Zheng's mansion are both larger than this, but they don't have this kind of lively atmosphere.
Marrying someone as virtuous as an older sister-in-law is no easy feat. However, as long as you live earnestly, your life can still be prosperous.
Xie Jian asked his fourth brother, "Should we move Yan Boxuan to your residence?"
Xie Zhen nodded: "He's already five years old, it's not suitable for him to live in the East Palace. Eighth and Ninth Brothers are also four years old, they can move over there to keep each other company."
Xie Jian said, "It won't work if no one is watching over it."
Xie Zhen said, "No, it won't happen. With Eunuch Xiao watching over things, Liu Lang will stay there too."
Xie Jian looked at his fourth brother.
Xie Zhen is quite good-looking: "I think they're doing well together. It's only been a few years. Can they really live with me forever?"
Xie Yu felt it inconvenient to invite them, but said, "I will visit them often."
Xie Zhen nodded: "With Yan Boxuan around, it probably won't be deserted."
Xie Jian asked, "Aren't you afraid the mansion will turn into a vegetable garden?"
Xie Zhen said, "Everyone should be studying and practicing martial arts, there's no time for that. Planting a little bit won't hurt. It's not far from Changchun Temple."
Yan Boxuan will be able to see his mother at Changchun Temple, but he shouldn't be affected. As for whether Taihua Zhenren will be affected, that's her business.
Xie Jian, having her own child, could not frequently visit the Prince Zheng's residence.
Although Xie Zhu has free time, he is not married and therefore not stable enough.
Of course, the Emperor will make arrangements; he can't let all three princes run wild.
The unfavored princes rarely saw their father, the Emperor. Since the Prince of Zheng's residence was close to the palace, they could often enter the palace and go to the East Palace.
Xie Jian tidied up and went to the palace with Wen Miao to express their gratitude.
Wen Miao rarely visited the Zichen Palace, but when he did, he remained calm.
He is very satisfied now: "Just tell me what you need, and if you need anything, just ask Qing'e."
Xie Jian laughed and said, "Qing'e is even happier than if she had a child herself."
Today, he nodded: "It's rare that Qing'e and Duanshu get along so well. Qing'e will have to rely on Duanshu more in the future."
Wenmiao doesn't deserve such praise. However, if the pregnancy goes smoothly, I will still be able to do some things.
However, there will be more matters to attend to at the Peng Prince's residence, and she will need more people.
Xie Jian also needs to take on more responsibility; some things are not a matter of whether or not one can do them, but rather a matter of necessity.
