Chapter 462: Birth
The sour smell made Gu Jingchun feel at a loss. Without caring about anything else, he hurried forward and personally put on Chen Hechuan's clothes one by one.
Shen Hechuan's expression looked much better.
After both of them were ready, they went to the Taimiao together to worship and attend the ceremony of enthroning the queen.
Originally, this conferment should have been done yesterday, but Chen Hechuan was afraid that Gu Jingchun would be too tired, so he postponed it to today.
After Gu Jingchun received the queen's seal and the document of enthronement, he should have knelt down and paid homage to Shen Hechuan.
However, just when Gu Jingchun looked at Chen Hechuan, he was directly supported by Chen Hechuan, holding his hand, and facing the officials together, accepting their kneeling and congratulations.
"Your Highness and I pay our respects to the Emperor and the Empress. May they live a thousand years."
Tens of thousands of voices came from officials, guards, and civilians outside the city.
Gu Jingchun and Shen Hechuan looked at each other and smiled.
After the enthronement ceremony, Chen Hechuan accompanied Gu Jingchun to Shou'an Palace to pay their respects to the Empress Dowager.
When the Empress Dowager saw the two of them coming hand in hand, she couldn't hide the smile on her face.
After Gu Jingchun saluted the Empress Dowager, he knelt down with Chen Hechuan and offered tea to the Empress Dowager.
"Granddaughter-in-law invites mother to have tea."
The Empress Dowager took the tea and said several good words in a row.
“Okay, okay!”
"very nice."
"Jingchun, since you are now the queen, you are the master of the harem. From now on, I will hand over all the affairs of the harem to you."
Gu Jingchun nodded.
"Okay, my granddaughter-in-law will definitely live up to the Queen Mother's trust."
The Empress Dowager nodded and presented the gift she had prepared in advance.
"This is the headgear I brought as a dowry. Now I'm old and it's not suitable for me to wear. It's just right for you now."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingchun looked over and saw an extremely exquisite head ornament on the tray.
Very beautiful.
It's sparkling, which shows how priceless it is.
Gu Jingchun quickly kowtowed to thank the Empress Dowager. The Grand Empress Dowager waved her hand and held Gu Jingchun's hand.
"These things are just external possessions. If you like them, I'll give them to you. The most important thing is that now that you've married Hechuan, you should work harder in the future and give birth to another little princess for His Majesty as soon as possible!"
After the Empress Dowager finished speaking, Gu Jingchun paused and nodded.
He lowered his head and said, "Jingchun...I will follow the instructions of the Empress Dowager."
Chen Hechuan was feeling happy right now, and he didn't notice anything unusual about Gu Jingchun, so he started talking as well.
"Grandma, don't worry. Within a year, I will definitely let you see a little princess."
Gu Jingchun looked up at Chen Hechuan and said nothing more.
Afterwards, the Empress Dowager spoke to the two of them for a few more words before letting them go back.
By the time Gu Jingchun returned to the palace, he was so tired that he could not even walk.
After going back and taking off the complicated clothes and removing the intricate headdress, another hour passed before Gu Jingchun could finally lie down on the bed.
At this time, Chen Hechuan had already started processing today's memorials.
In order to stay with Gu Jingchun for a while longer, Chen Hechuan ordered people to move all the memorials to Gu Jingchun's palace.
Gu Jingchun looked at Shen Hechuan who was working so hard and began to feel sorry for him.
She simply stood up and went straight to Chen Hechuan.
"Do you work so hard every day?"
Shen Hechuan nodded.
"Today is quite relaxing. Since it's a wedding, there aren't many political matters."
Gu Jingchun sat directly next to Shen Hechuan.
"In that case, let me help you so you can get some rest."
Chen Hechuan directly handed the entire stack of memorials to her.
"Try it first, and you can ask me if you don't understand."
Gu Jingchun nodded and then began to read it seriously.
After asking Shen Hechuan several times, she read faster and faster.
After consultation and discussion between the two of them, they quickly finished reading the entire pile of memorials.
Gu Jingchun was finally able to rest peacefully.
However, it is dark now.
After finishing their dinner, they fell asleep again.
However, this time Gu Jingchun was smart and told Shen Hechuan in advance that he must rest.
Shen Hechuan nodded in agreement.
However, when the two of them were lying on the bed, he simply turned over and pressed Gu Jingchun under him.
Afterwards, just like last night, all kinds of pleading and coaxing gradually made Gu Jingchun give in.
What happened next was naturally a little out of control.
Just like last night, Gu Jingchun was tossed around and tossed around again.
However, Gu Jingchun enjoyed it very much.
I just can’t keep up physically and I’m so tired.
Tianji and Lanxin, who were outside the door, also had experience. They sat down on the steps and began to look up at the stars.
When she got tired of watching, Lan Xin just lay down on Tianji and fell asleep.
The next day, Gu Jingchun opened his eyes early.
Although he was extremely tired, he still stood up.
Because today is the day to return home.
Although she is the queen now, she still has to return home.
Lan Xin was combing Gu Jingchun's hair and spoke softly.
"Your Majesty, I don't know if His Majesty will go back with you this time."
Gu Jingchun shook his head.
"He's so busy, how could he have time to go back with us?"
"There's nothing else to do. We can just go back by ourselves."
These days, Lan Xin also understood that Chen Hechuan was really busy, so she nodded.
When Gu Jingchun dressed up and prepared to leave the palace, he saw Shen Hechuan's carriage waiting quietly at the palace gate.
After seeing Gu Jingchun, he smiled.
"Why didn't the Queen call me husband when she wanted to go back home?"
"Or, in the eyes of the Queen, I am not worthy to go back home with you?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingchun looked around, fearing that what Shen Hechuan said would be heard by other ministers.
But Shen Hechuan was not afraid at all.
He went straight down and got into Gu Jingchun's sedan chair.
Gu Jingchun couldn't help but pat him.
"If you want to go back with me, you should have told me in advance. You have to sew it here. If the ministers see it, they will inevitably criticize me again."
After all, since ancient times, the queen has always returned home alone, and it is rare for the emperor to accompany her.
Shen Hechuan's actions were bound to be criticized by some ministers.
Chen Hechuan held Gu Jingchun's hand, placed it on his lips and kissed it gently before speaking.
"I just want them to see, to let them know how important you are to me, and to stop them from being so stupid as to say nonsense."
As they talked, the carriage left the palace.
At this time, Gu Erli and Ye Wenxi were already waiting at the door of Gu Jingchun's mansion.
