Jing'er fainted in Aruo and Aqi's bridal chamber, which terrified everyone in the room.
The imperial physician rushed over, and after taking his pulse, stroked his beard and smiled, "Congratulations, General Bai! Your wife is pregnant!"
"You're pregnant?" Bai Yan was stunned.
For a long while, he didn't react.
He stared blankly at Jing'er, who was still unconscious, opened his mouth, and then suddenly pulled her into his arms: "My dear Jing'er..."
A grown man, standing seven feet tall, suddenly had tears in his eyes.
Seeing this, Yuan Yao was very pleased.
Almost everyone around her is living a very happy and fulfilling life.
Being with the person you love, doing the things you love...
There is nothing more perfect in the world than this.
The shock turned into a pleasant surprise.
The imperial physician prescribed medicine to calm the nerves and nourish the fetus, which Jing'er was then given.
She woke up shortly afterward.
She lay on the soft couch in the bridal chamber, bewildered, and asked, "What happened to me? How did I end up here?"
Everyone in the bridal chamber looked at her with smiles.
At this moment, Bai Yan spoke up: "Jing'er, you are pregnant."
"What?" Jing'er was so startled she almost jumped out of Bai Yan's arms.
Bai Yan reacted quickly and pressed her back down: "Jing'er, the imperial physician just said that you need to rest for a while."
After he finished speaking, he waited to see her reaction.
Unexpectedly, Jing'er's eyes reddened, and she rushed towards Yuan Yao, crying, "Princess, sob sob..."
Yuan Yao asked with slight surprise, "Jing'er, what's wrong?"
As she spoke, she gently patted Jing'er's back.
Jing'er sobbed, "Princess, I don't want to have a child so early. I want to spend more time with you..."
puff……
Yuan Yao was both amused and exasperated.
She patted Jing'er gently and said with a smile, "You're married now, and General Bai dotes on you so much, you should be happier."
"Once I have the baby, I can bring the baby into the palace to keep me company."
Jing'er bit her lip, looking at her with tears welling up in her eyes.
Yuan Yao: "?"
She was both puzzled and amused: "Still have doubts?"
Jing'er hesitated for a while before whispering, "I've heard that childbirth is very painful, and I'm scared."
Moreover, I've heard that childbirth can easily lead to death...
After saying that, she looked up and glared at Bai Yan: "It's all your fault!"
He got her pregnant right after they got married!
puff……
Yuan Yao smiled, her eyes crinkling.
She comforted her, saying, "Don't be afraid. When you give birth, General Bai will be by your side, and I will be with you too."
My uncle and Uncle Heyin will be there too.
With so many people with you, you and your child will be safe and sound.
If it weren't for this joyous occasion, Jing'er would have cried.
She pouted and said, touched, "Jing'er will always love the Princess the most!"
Yuan Yao raised an eyebrow: "Someone's jealous."
Before Jing'er could speak, Bai Yan spoke first, his expression serious: "Your Majesty, this subordinate is not jealous."
Yuan Yao almost burst out laughing.
She patted Jing'er on the shoulder: "Alright, today is a great day for Aruo, Aqi, you and General Bai, so cheer up."
Only after being reminded by her did Jing'er come to her senses.
She patted her face and said to Aruo, "Aruo, it's all my fault. I actually fainted in your bridal chamber."
After the wedding banquet, I'll go home and give you a big red envelope.
Please don't look down on me, and don't think I'm bad luck..."
Under the veil, Aruo said helplessly, "Over the years, have I ever said a bad word about you? Have I ever complained about you in any way?"
"You're pregnant, that's a joyous occasion, how could I possibly think you're bringing bad luck?"
After saying that, Aruo sat upright on the wedding bed and beckoned, "Jing'er, come and sit down."
Jing'er was taken aback: "This is your wedding bed, how can I sit on it?"
Aruo gently lifted a corner of her veil, revealing her exquisitely made-up face: "Come and sit down, let me share in the joy."
To share in the joy?
Jing'er's eyes widened as she asked, "A'Ruo, you want to have a child with A'Qi so soon?"
Aruo's face flushed, and she pursed her lips slightly, her cheeks, already rouged, turning even redder.
She looked at Yuan Yao and said softly, "Princess, please have a seat too."
Looking at Jing'er and Aruo, whose faces were full of happiness, Yuan Yao's heartstrings were slightly moved.
Jing'er and Aruo, rather than being her maids, have developed a sister-like relationship over the years.
Their desire for her happiness was fervent and sincere.
Yuan Yao's nose tingled slightly, but her eyes crinkled with laughter: "Okay."
Although, it's not very useful.
After all, Yun Chan had taken the medicine...
Yuan Yao and Jing'er sat on either side of Aruo.
Aruo grabbed their hands tightly.
Jing'er leaned on Aruo's shoulder and muttered, "When we were young, we never imagined that one day we would be married off to the State of Chu."
“The Kingdom of Chu is wonderful,” Aruo said gently. “Here, there is an emperor who dotes on the princess, a peaceful life that the princess desires, and the freedom that His Highness cherishes…”
Here are you, here are me, and here are the people we love.
Upon hearing this, Jing'er looked up at Bai Yan.
Bai Yan looked at her tenderly.
She looked up at Yuan Yao again.
Yuan Yao looked at her with a smile.
For a moment, Jing'er felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
She thought for a moment and said to Aruo, "Aruo, how about you have your baby after I give birth and the baby is a little older?"
"When my child is a little older, I'll come and stay with you, Princess. Then you can focus on having your baby."
“Jing’er…” Yuan Yao’s lips twitched.
She said with a mix of helplessness and amusement, "There are so many palace servants in the palace, why do I need you and Aruo to take care of me?"
Once you're married, you'll have your own home.
From now on, you should think about your own family first and live your lives well first, remember that?
Otherwise, I'll be unhappy.
Jing'er and Aruo exchanged a glance and solemnly replied, "We will listen to what the princess says."
“That’s more like it!” Yuan Yao patted their hands.
When Aqi arrived in a hurry with Yunchan, Xie Ning, and the others, Jing'er had already recovered and was lively again.
Outside the bridal chamber, night had fallen, and the festivities were in full swing...
After Aruo and Jing'er got married, Yuan Yao had nothing to do.
They were extremely leisurely all day long.
Fearing she would be too tired, Yun Chan issued a special decree to select female officials, who would be ranked like courtiers, entering the palace in the morning to attend court and leaving the palace to return home in the evening...
As for the letter from Jiang Chengyan of Daqi, it arrived belatedly—
Jiang Chengyan has become a father!
Deng Zhiheng suffered a lot to give birth to a little princess. The baby girl was born with severe jaundice and almost died.
The baby was born in April, and the mother has been sick ever since.
After the imperial physicians took meticulous care of the child for two months, and the child was finally healthy and lively, Jiang Chengyan finally sent a letter.
Yuan Yao took the letter and went to find Yun Chan, wanting to share the good news with him.
As soon as one stood on the stone steps outside the Taixiang Hall, a loud argument could be heard coming from inside—
"...Your Majesty, it has been almost a year since the Empress married you, yet she has neither taken any concubines to enrich your harem nor borne you any children. This is outrageous!"
"Your Majesty, it's time to fill the harem!"
"Your Majesty, we are only acting in the best interests of the Chu royal family!"
"..."
Yuan Yao gathered her skirt, stretched her neck, and curiously peeked into the main hall.
Taking a concubine?
To fill the harem?
Have these court officials finally lost their composure?
interesting!
She was genuinely curious about how Yun Chan would deal with this group of people!
