Chapter 15: The Gift of a Son
The Queen Mother stared at her blankly.
The conversation between the two was extremely smooth, and I had no idea how she was communicating with a two-month-old baby.
But when he saw his usually spoiled daughter humbled himself to the ground, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.
"As you wish. After three months, you will not be able to refuse."
The eldest princess wiped her tears and got up from the ground.
"Chao Chao, you are truly my sweetheart. Yunniang, you gave birth to a good daughter..." The eldest princess looked at him reluctantly, this was her dream boy.
[Life, I will grant you eight or ten!] 】The little guy waved his fat hand.
Xu's eyelids twitched and she hurriedly took her daughter over.
"Your Highness, Chaochao is still a child and knows nothing. This... can't be taken seriously." The princess has been married for more than ten years and has seen countless imperial doctors, but has never been pregnant.
What should I do if I don’t get pregnant within three months?
The eldest princess pursed her lips and smiled: "Don't worry, I understand." She understood that Xu loved her daughter dearly.
But this time she inexplicably believed Chaochao.
"Serve the meal." The Queen Mother intended to keep Xu in the palace for dinner and to spend more time with her eldest daughter.
Palace banquets are complicated and have many rules, but the delicacies from the imperial kitchen are also delicious.
The nanny held Lu Chaochao in her arms. When Lu Chaochao smelled the fragrance, her dark eyes lit up.
【Meat! Meat, I really want to eat meat, give me a piece, let me try it! 】Xiao Chaochao opened his mouth and kept shouting in a childish voice.
[No, you can just lick the plate for me.] 】Ms. Xu was almost sweating coldly.
"Bring him to me quickly." The eldest princess asked the nanny to hand the child to her.
"Are you greedy? You haven't grown teeth yet. I'll give you some meat when you can eat meat after a hundred days." The eldest princess liked him more and more as she looked at him. He really suited her heart.
Why can't we specify a child like this?
The eldest princess rarely held her with one hand and held the chopsticks with the other.
No care was taken about royal etiquette.
The eldest princess lifted up the silver chopsticks, picked up a piece of food and was about to put it into her mouth.
Who knew...
A short and round little claw stretched out from his arms and quickly grasped the chopsticks.
Grab the piece of soft meat on the chopsticks and stuff it into your mouth as hard as you can!
Xu was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat. She rushed forward and grabbed her hand: "Someone come quickly!" Xu had been paying attention to her since he heard her thoughts and almost let her succeed.
It's been less than two months and the teeth haven't grown yet. What should I do if I choke?
The Queen Mother was stunned.
"Oh my, this guy is so quick! I didn't even have time to react." Although the princess had never raised a child, she had some common sense and was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat.
The two men were afraid of hurting her, so they had to pry open her little hand little by little and take out the meat inside.
Lu Chaochao was so anxious that she burst into tears. "Meat, my meat!" 】
She was crying loudly in Xu's mind.
Xu was both angry and amused.
"When you grow teeth, I will cook meat for you every day. Let go of me, you can't eat this meat." Xu coaxed and deceived her before she took the meat out of her hand.
But he refused to wash the oily spots on his hands and clenched them into small fists.
From time to time, put it in your mouth and take a few sips.
Her delicate and fair little face showed a look of satisfaction.
Lu Chaochao sighed softly. In her new life, except for retaining her strength, her mentality and thoughts were slowly becoming that of a child.
This is the bondage of heaven.
Slurp...
I took a sip of the oil and it was delicious.
"The fastest thing in the world is a baby's hand. It's really true." The eldest princess looked shocked.
She couldn't catch it because of its quick hand.
In order to prevent her from grabbing the bowl, she had to carry Lu Chaochao away from her, and only took her out of the palace after Xu had lunch.
"This child is lovable, and it's his first time in the palace. I have to give him something as a reward."
The Queen Mother waved her hand and rewarded countless jewels and head ornaments. The little guy’s favorite is the golden apple that symbolizes peace and health, and he won’t let go of it once he holds it.
The princess wanted to warn the loyal and brave marquis, so she gave him a huge night-shining pearl.
"Yunniang, I heard that... the Marquis originally purchased eighteen luminous pearls." She paused, she knew how much her good friend loved the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery. I almost love him to the point of losing myself and living by him.
"But only one of the night pearls was delivered to Chao Chao." She didn't say much. Her friend didn't like to hear bad things about Marquis Zhongyong, so she could only stop there.
Xu lowered her head in silence.
The eldest princess sighed.
On the way out of the palace.
[I’m rich, I’m rich, is this gold real? 】Xiao Chaochao held the golden apple in both hands and drooled as he bit into it.
Xu took a breath. How could she give birth to a money-grubber?
How could she know that the poorest people in the world of cultivation were sword cultivators.
Lu Chaochao is also an old sword cultivator! ! I have never had money in my pocket in my life!
"Go back to your mother's home and see how your mother is doing." Xu gave the order, and Dengzhi immediately sent someone to inquire.
When Xu returned to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion, the lights were already on.
As soon as she entered the door, Lu Yuanze received the message and hurriedly chased after her.
His brows were covered with sweat, and he looked unusually anxious.
"Yunniang, why did my father-in-law and his family get out of prison?" After saying that, he seemed to feel that his tone was not right, and hurriedly asked another question.
"Yunniang, I joined forces with several ministers this afternoon to intercede for my father-in-law, but this letter of appeal has not yet been submitted. My father-in-law has returned home. What's going on?" He held the letter of appeal in his hand, seeming very anxious.
Xu frowned slightly, looking a little tired.
"The emperor misunderstood the Xu family and promoted my eldest brother." She had a smile on her face, and when she looked carefully, she found a flash of hatred in Lu Yuanze's eyes.
"I don't know who reported that there are some witchcraft objects under the crooked willow tree of the Xu family."
"There is no such thing as witchcraft. There is only the Xu family's patriotism. What's buried in it is..." Xu kept the secret.
Lu Yuanze's heart began to lift.
"What is buried?" He asked in a cold tone.
"It shows the Xu family's loyalty to the court and their willingness to sacrifice everything for it." After Xu finished speaking, the maid behind her added another word.
"We have to thank the whistleblower, otherwise how could the Xu family have such good fortune? The eldest master was promoted to the second rank, which is faster than the old man's promotion. The Xu family is going to rise again." Juexia glanced at Marquis Zhongyong.
Marquis Zhongyong’s face turned pale instantly, and he clenched his fists tightly, trying to endure the sudden attack.
"Really, what a good fortune." He took a deep breath.
"It's not just this good fortune. Our lady has been commended by His Majesty and granted the third-rank imperial edict. The imperial edict will come down tomorrow morning." Yingxue held her head high. Her lady was famous in the capital when she was young.
If it hadn't been suppressed by Lu Yuanze for many years, it wouldn't have looked like this.
This time, Lu Yuanze's eyes were red.
"When the Marquis is in the court, Yunniang can't hold him back."
[He is jealous. He is jealous.]
[His father-in-law is from a higher family background than him, and even his wife is of higher rank than him. Hahahaha, his eyes are red with jealousy] Lu Chaochao laughed wildly in his heart.
The scumbag who lives off women deserves it!
