"Giggle, giggle."
The courtyard was filled with the innocent laughter of children and the cheerful voice of Yinzhi.
Princess Zhenbao is seven months old now, and you can tell she has a lively personality, though she's a little bossy.
As soon as her parents turn away from her, she starts yelling "Oh! Oh! Oh!" to attract their attention.
Look at her, she's so happy, waving her little hands and giving you a sweet smile that warms your heart.
Now, Little Princess Zhenbao is the old man's favorite. The first thing he does when he comes home every day is to see his little princess.
Several times when Yinzhi returned home, the eldest princess was still asleep. Yinzhi would stay by her side, quietly watching the little girl's sleeping face, feeling a warm glow inside, thinking that his eldest princess was beautiful no matter how he looked at her.
The foolish father, Yinzhi, has arrived.
That day, Lady Irgen Gioro came to visit the Grand Consort. While coaxing Princess Zhenbao to sleep, she said, "It's a pity it's not a boy." Yinzhi overheard this and his face was sour all day, as if someone owed him money.
That evening, he secretly asked Hezhuo if his mother-in-law disliked the eldest princess.
He Zhuo hurriedly explained to him that his mother liked the eldest princess and only hoped that he would have another prince. Upon hearing this, Yin Zhi smiled and said, "I will obey my mother-in-law's orders." Then he put his words into practice for the entire night.
“My lady, look how clever our eldest princess is! Her eyes are fixed on the cloth tiger in my hand,” said Yinzhi.
"Yes, this child has a strong grip. The other day, when I tried to take the cloth rabbit out of her hand, Zhenbao held on tightly and wouldn't let go."
He Zhuo took Princess Zhenbao from Yin Zhi's hands, gently wiped the drool from the corner of her daughter's mouth with a handkerchief, and placed her on the couch, humming a little tune to coax her.
He Zhuo rubbed his arm.
"What's wrong? Is it sore again? Our eldest princess is so strong." Yinzhi naturally reached out and massaged Hezhuo's arm.
Little Treasure likes to be carried around and go out to play. She also eats a lot and is quite chubby.
After coaxing her to sleep, she took Yinzhi to the outer room to discuss the Second Princess's third-day celebration with him.
Yes,
Second Princess
Yinzhi's second daughter was born in the early hours of this morning by his concubine, Lady Chao. The baby will be given a third-day celebration the day after tomorrow.
After thinking for a moment, Yinzhi said, "The Second Princess was born to a concubine, so for her third-day celebration, we can just have two tables set up by our own family."
"Yes, Your Highness, I will arrange it. But, my lord, I cannot raise children, so what about the Second Princess?"
He Zhuo looked up and asked where the Second Princess was, only to find Yin Zhi staring at him intently, the meaning clear: the First Princess is so well-fed, I hope the Second Princess will come too.
He Zhuo understood Yin Zhi's meaning and quickly spoke up:
“A concubine cannot raise a child, and I have a eldest princess to take care of. Why don’t you follow the rules of the palace and arrange for the second princess to be raised by a nanny?”
"But..." Yinzhi was still unwilling to give up.
"Master,"
The only option left is to use the ultimate move.
He Zhuo pulled Yin Zhi's hand and touched her belly, saying, "My period hasn't come this month; it's been three days already."
Yinzhi understood Hezhuo's meaning, and no longer cared about the Second Princess, personally helping his own wife to sit down.
"What do you want to eat? What do you want to drink? Is there anything wrong with you?" After a barrage of questions about your well-being, they were also busy summoning the imperial physician.
He Zhuo pressed her down: "Your Highness, it's not certain yet. We've already summoned the imperial physician. If it's not true, we'll just make ourselves a laughingstock." As she spoke, she gave Yin Zhi a reproachful look.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. A few more days, a few more days."
"My lord, I really don't have the energy to take care of the Second Princess right now. If you're worried, you can arrange for the Second Princess to live in the front courtyard. After we leave the palace and build our own residence, we can plan a courtyard in the back for the First and Second Princesses to live together. What do you think?"
