Chapter 226 Pregnancy
Rong Jinchen had also heard of the Yaoyue Tower, a famous assassin organization, and it seemed that Mo Li was the chief assassin there.
He suddenly laughed. Does he want to kill someone with a borrowed knife?
"Your Highness, do you want to chase her?" Gu Heng asked. Rong Jinchen chuckled slightly, "No need."
That person, Mo Li, left. He looked at the jade bottle in his hand that had been rubbed smooth with age and said, "I hope you are doing well. I won't bother you anymore." He was just an ordinary killer, but even a tiger would lower its head to sniff a rose.
The heart that had been cold and hard for many years became soft when he met the person whose back amazed his life.
He knew that she didn't need him by her side, and it was enough for him to know that she was doing well along the way.
But in the end, I just wanted to see her face to face one last time.
Let’s not talk about how Su Zhenzhen ceded land and paid compensation later.
After leaving the border, they headed west again. They witnessed the spectacular sight of the setting sun over the desert and the long river, and saw the snow-capped mountains and grasslands. They went south from the Tianshan Mountains through Bashu and returned to the capital. It was the end of another year.
Su Zhenzhen and Rong Jinchen spent a year in a somewhat strange atmosphere. During this year, the gap between His Majesty and the Crown Prince deepened. Everyone was not a fool and could sense that a storm was coming.
Rong Jinchen also went to court as usual, but he still went on duty on time and left on time, and was as enthusiastic as ever about going home after work.
Land surveying can now be implemented nationwide. After more than two years of surveying work, and with the pilot project in Hejian Prefecture, the reform is proceeding in an orderly manner.
The Yellow River management plan launched in May of the previous year has been progressing steadily, and breeding cattle have also begun to be promoted this year. Everything seems to be thriving, but undercurrents are surging beneath the calm surface.
Luo Zhihan, who discovered the breeding cattle, had been promoted from the Princess of Chuyang to the County Lord. She felt that her position was steadily rising, one level a year, and she had hope in life.
However, she felt that in the end she would only be granted the title of a county lady or a princess, and she could forget about being granted the title of a marquis. Relying solely on breeding cattle, she was just a woman, which was impossible in the reign of Emperor Ming of Qin.
But if she took out other things, she felt that it was a bit dangerous and she was afraid that she could not protect herself. She decided to wait for Emperor Wu of Qin to ascend the throne. Then the biggest boss in the world would protect her, and she could rely on the golden finger to achieve great things.
Otherwise, relying solely on her own abilities, she could only earn some money from selling trees. How could she change her family's fortune?
As for Su Zhenzhen, she was still the same as when she first got married, eating, drinking, playing, sleeping, and admiring peerless handsome men. Occasionally, she would take time to visit her girls' school. All other business was taken care of by someone in charge, so Su Zhenzhen didn't have to worry about anything.
She just had to count the silver.
But people get bored easily when lying down for too long. She has been lying down for three years. At the beginning of the year, she and Rong Jinchen started preparing for pregnancy.
Perhaps because they couldn't bear to see her relax, the fruit of their love came soon. Calculating the date, it was exactly during the days when they started getting pregnant.
The third day of March.
Su Zhenzhen was looking at the crabapple tree outside the window, admiring the beautiful spring scenery. She was eating snacks and reading the travel notes she had written. She was leaning on the chaise longue, looking extremely beautiful.
As a result, after putting a piece of milk and water chestnut powder cake into her mouth, she felt a fishy smell of milk in her throat. She couldn't help but retched, "yue~" Lu Wu was shocked.
"Princess, are these pastries unclean? Or did you catch a cold yesterday?" She hurriedly asked Zijuan to call the imperial physician. If His Highness knew about this, her monthly allowance would be deducted. Most importantly, it would be an insult to Luwu's career. How could she not take good care of the princess?
Su Zhenzhen had a guess in her mind, but she was afraid that she was wrong. Maybe it was because she and Rong Jinchen had been too unrestrained recently and caught a cold.
After taking the pulse, the imperial physician left with a generous reward. When Rong Jinchen returned at dusk, he saw that everyone in the palace was overjoyed and looking at him with smiles on their faces.
He was a little confused, but he didn't show it on his face. He entered the main house of Langhuan Garden and saw that Su Zhenzhen didn't ask him to hug her like before. He frowned unconsciously and said softly: "Are you angry, Qingqing? Your husband didn't mean to come back so late. On the way, I went with my two uncles to buy the newly released braised pork knuckle from Zuixianlou. Didn't Qingqing think it tasted good yesterday?" He went to buy another portion specially.
Su Zhenzhen sat on the chaise longue with a reserved posture. The fragrance of the goose pear incense burning in the white jade incense burner with a carved peony pattern in the room was sweet and light, just like Su Zhenzhen's mood at the moment.
She pursed her lips and said, "Husband, I don't want to eat anymore." In fact, she wanted to eat, but wasn't it said that greasy food could easily cause morning sickness? Su Zhenzhen was the most delicate, and she was a little scared.
Rong Jinchen was not disappointed by her. He knew that Su Zhenzhen was not this kind of person in the past. Something must have happened. He whispered: "Okay, Qingqing, do you have no appetite? Do you want to call the imperial physician to take a look?" What if she loses her appetite and loses weight?
Lu Wu tried hard to lower her head and smile secretly, not letting herself make any sound. She knew that there would be nothing for them to do next, so she called Gu Heng to go down with them. After all, if His Highness was happy, they would be rewarded.
There were only the young couple left in the room. Su Zhenzhen couldn't hold it in any longer, so she smiled and said, "Husband, I'm pregnant, you're going to be a father." It's no exaggeration to say that Rong Jinchen was stunned on the spot.
It seemed like a century had passed before the man, with tears in his eyes and tears of joy, came back to his senses from his stunned state.
Rong Jinchen held his breath, looking at Su Zhenzhen with almost greedy eyes, "Qingqing? There's someone in your belly?" Did he hear correctly? Seeing his expression, Su Zhenzhen couldn't help laughing at the same time. "Yes, our glutinous rice balls are in my belly." She even touched her belly in a serious manner.
He had cautiously climbed onto the chaise longue without knowing when. He didn't dare pick her up and hold her in his arms like he used to. Instead, he silently extended a hand and gently placed it on Su Zhenzhen's belly. "Tangyuan'er, I'm your daddy."
Su Zhenzhen just smiled. After all, she had never seen Rong Jinchen like this before, and she wished she had a camera to record the scene. "Husband, are you happy?" Rong Jinchen was slightly stunned. "Of course I am happy, but my dear, pregnancy is very difficult, and I can't share your burden." Ever since they started preparing for pregnancy, Rong Jinchen had consulted the imperial physician privately. He was also glad that he didn't have a child so early, otherwise there would be so many women aged 15 or 16 who had difficult labors.
Qingqing is willing to have a baby for him. Rong Jinchen is so happy that he almost faints. But then comes the worry about her pregnancy. Can he really take good care of her?
Su Zhenzhen listened to his concerns and gently kissed his forehead, caressing his smooth face with her small hands. "Husband, don't worry, I'm very happy." She looked at her belly with that motherly gaze that had slipped in without her noticing. "Tangyuan'er, Daddy and Mommy love you very much, you have to be good." Just don't let her get morning sickness.
Weiyang Palace.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! The Princess Consort of Prince Yan is pregnant!" Yu Fuhai walked in excitedly, not even bothering to bow. Rong Yue paused with his wolf-hair brush, which was originally used to mark memorials, and even before he could drop ink on the memorials, his phoenix eyes suddenly lit up with joy, and he repeatedly replied: "Good, good, good, good... I will reward you handsomely! I will go to open the private treasury myself! Go, go, go..." He left the dragon throne before he could finish his words, leaving behind Crown Prince Rong Jinyou, who was distracted by the memorials...
And at this time in the Su Mansion.
"Your Highness! Your Highness the Prince of Yan sent someone to tell you that the princess is pregnant!" The housekeeper of the Su Mansion smiled brightly and excitedly, "What? Zhenzhen is pregnant? Your Highness, let's go to the Prince of Yan's Mansion quickly." Ye Mingyan looked at Su Qiyang who was in a daze and couldn't help shaking him.
