At this time, Concubine Jing did not know that she was pregnant.
Only Yan Bao, the Shen Shoufu couple who overheard Yan Bao's thoughts, and the Thirteenth Prince knew.
Madam Shen looked at the Thirteenth Prince with a bit of sympathy. Looking at the well-behaved, cute, handsome and clean Thirteenth Prince, this child really had a bad fate. She had thought that everything would go smoothly in the future.
But unexpectedly, Concubine Jing was pregnant.
Concubine Jing should be congratulated on her pregnancy.
Standing on the side of the Thirteenth Prince, one cannot help but feel worried.
People are selfish. If you have your own child, can you still love someone else's child with all your heart?
This is why there is the concept of stepmother.
Chief Minister Shen didn't say anything, he just pretended that he didn't know that Concubine Jing was pregnant.
Yan Bao clearly knew everything, but he pretended to know nothing and smiled at the Thirteenth Prince, preventing him from noticing anything. It took three months for Concubine Jing to become pregnant before it was revealed.
Concubine Jing was very careful. After the painful experience last time, she would not tell anyone until the child was firmly seated.
Because of Concubine Jing's pregnancy, the atmosphere in the carriage was a bit subtle. Yan Bao didn't know about it and even asked the Thirteenth Prince to play with the flower rope.
Later, a deck of playing cards was found in the supply space, and Yan Bao pulled the Thirteenth Prince and Zi Yun to play Landlord, Golden Flower, Fifty Kings, or Red Hearts.
The fun playing cards instantly attracted everyone's attention, and the Thirteenth Prince no longer worried about Concubine Jing's pregnancy. It didn't matter if she no longer loved him after having her own child.
He has grown up and needs to be strong and can no longer rely on others.
Besides, he also has Yan Bao!
Prime Minister Shen and Madam Shen are also very good to herself. The Thirteenth Prince has no shortage of people caring about him. Concubine Jing is also pitiful. She finally has her own child, so it would be nice for her to love her child more.
During this period, Concubine Jing treated him very well. The Thirteenth Prince knew that he had to learn to be grateful, not be jealous, and not have any bad thoughts.
After playing a few rounds of cards, they arrived in the capital before dark. The emperor took Concubine Jiang, Concubine Jing, and the Thirteenth Prince back to the palace. The Thirteenth Prince was reluctant to leave, and Yan Bao saw him off with a smile.
After the emperor's carriage drove away, Yan Bao immediately got back into the carriage, holding the hot water bottle that had just been filled with boiling water, and held it in his arms, feeling warm and comfortable.
Each member of the Shen family now has one.
There is not a single hot water bottle left in the supply space.
It’s gone, all gone.
I can’t even spare any money from my sister-in-law.
Yan Bao and the others returned home and had a delicious dinner. Because Yan Bao muttered about wanting to eat hot pot in the carriage, Shen Shoufu sent someone back in advance to tell the kitchen that they could eat hot pot when they returned.
After eating the hot pot, I felt alive again.
After eating and drinking, Yan Bao tidied up and went to sleep.
As for Concubine Jiang, not long after she returned to the palace, the news of her pregnancy spread. Those concubines who disliked her became even more unhappy. But so what? With the emperor's protection, Concubine Jiang lived a good life.
In addition, she suffered from severe morning sickness and rarely went out. When someone from the palace came to give her gifts, she would just say a few words and leave.
In order to keep Concubine Jiang pregnant, the emperor gave the nanny who took care of him when he was a child to Concubine Jiang. The nanny was someone the emperor trusted, and with her around, the emperor felt much more at ease.
When the concubines saw that all the important maids in the harem followed Concubine Jiang, they were furious. How could they not know that the emperor was making his position clear, asking those with ulterior motives to be more restrained.
If anything happens to this child, he will not let it go easily.
The presence of the nanny scared away many people with bad intentions.
There are intrigues and deceptions in the palace, and it has nothing to do with her if Yan Bao doesn't enter the palace.
It was the end of the year, and Yan Bao picked a good day and took Ziyun and her master to the farm. Yan Bao also specially prepared a small courtyard for her master, which was just behind the big courtyard.
She surrounded it with a fence and planted bamboo and roses, knowing that her master didn't like to be disturbed.
Master Li looked at the yard that Yan Bao had built specifically for him. It was a flat open space where he could practice martial arts and play badminton. There was a tea room, a study, a bedroom, and a living room.
There is a kitchen, a toilet, and a vegetable garden.
Yan Bao looked up at her master: [Do you like it? This was built especially for you. If you don't want to live in the capital, you can come here to rest. It won't make you sad to see you living without a fixed place.]
For Yan Bao now, building such a small courtyard doesn't cost much money at all.
I also know that Master Li feels uncomfortable being with their family.
It’s different if you have your own house and yard. You can just close the door and live your own life.
Master Li was very pleased. Looking at the thoughtful and careful Yan Bao, he patted her head and said, "Get up tomorrow morning and go running with Master. You've been too idle lately and have gained weight. How can a martial artist be lazy?"
Yan Bao wailed in his heart: [No, no, it’s winter, can’t you take a break?]
Ziyun wanted to slip away, but Master Li stopped her: "Ziyun, you too, will be lifting a hundred-pound stone starting tomorrow."
Ziyun suddenly felt that she had tenosynovitis.
This Huangtao Villa has been well built after not seeing it for a few months. Now it is cold and the ground is frozen. It is not easy to build the villa in such cold weather, so everyone is staying at home for the winter and will continue construction when the new year comes.
It now has a rough outline and is just waiting to be completed in the first half of next year.
Yan Bao's farm has already raised quite a few chickens, and they are too small to be killed. It is estimated that boiled chicken, salt-baked chicken, roast chicken, and grilled chicken have already been arranged.
Next year, you can eat fresh, home-raised free-range chickens.
It smells so good!
Yan Bao and his friends stayed at the farm for one night. If the yard had not been built yet, they would have stayed a few more days. Anyway, it was not the New Year yet, so there was no rush to go back.
