Princess Xiangrui in Huanzhu

Hexi is difficult to evaluate.

He Jia was like a "considerate" wife who was willing to take a concubine for her husband.

Don’t understand, but respect.

He Xi knew very well that the influence of an environment on people's thinking was deeply rooted. Perhaps in He Jia's mind, being virtuous and tolerant was the right thing to do.

She could not impose her own way of thinking on ancient women, as that would not be fair to He Jia.

But Fu Longan did not have the idea of ​​having two wives. If they continued like this, the love between husband and wife would probably be exhausted. However, they still felt that they were doing it for each other's good.

"Sister, there's no need to worry. Having offspring is a matter of fate and can't be rushed." He Xi had no choice but to comfort her.

"Sister, I wonder if you have..." He Jia found it difficult to speak, but still asked shamelessly.

He Xi understood He Jia's purpose without He Jia saying much.

But she really didn't have the legendary secret recipe for having a child.

No one knew where the rumor came from, saying that she had a secret recipe for giving birth to a child. He Xi cried out that it was injustice, she had not given birth to many children, so how could there be such an outrageous rumor?

The key is that there are people who actually believe it.

This is it.

"Sister, to be honest with you, I really don't have this recipe." He Xi shook her head and said bluntly.

He Jia's face looked even more gloomy. He Xi felt something was not right. He seemed a bit depressed.

"Sister, how about this, what about you..." He Xi's heart tightened when she thought of this, and she quickly changed the subject.

What people fear most is losing hope.

What He Xi said was not a secret; it was physiological knowledge that everyone knows today.

But these theories were rare in ancient times when sex education was scarce.

He Xi racked his brains to think about the information he had seen when collecting materials in modern times, and blurted it out all at once.

He Jia was confused when he heard this, but he still took notes very carefully.

It seems that they really want to have a child, but often things don't go as planned.

"Sister, let me make it clear in advance that these are just probability issues. They can increase your chances of getting pregnant, but they are not absolute."

He Xi has to be frank with you. These rules are not a panacea. Even in modern times, there are many people who spend a year or two preparing for pregnancy.

He Jia is not a person who doesn't know what's good for him. There are no stupid people in the royal family. I'm afraid it's just a genetic mutation.

"Don't worry, sister. I won't have to worry about it." He Jia smiled brightly, and her seemingly depressed look brightened up.

He Xi sighed secretly in her heart. He Jia seemed to lack the awareness and confidence of a princess. Her heart and eyes were full of Fu Longan.

Even though He Xi felt that she loved Fu Kang'an very much, if she were honest with herself, she would realize that she couldn't love others more than herself.

To love others you must first love yourself.

***

Fu Kang'an learned about this when he returned to the princess's mansion in the evening. He didn't expect that He Jia would be so shameless as to ask He Xi about this.

It seems that what Fulongan said was not an exaggeration.

"Don't be so bitter and vengeful. Fourth sister didn't say anything."

He Jia didn't dare to say anything. He was polite from beginning to end, but too polite and not friendly enough.

He Xi also knew that she and He Jia were not fake sisters, but they were not much better either. After all, they did not have much contact in their daily lives.

Even He Jing, who married early, had a better relationship with He Xi.

He Xi stroked Fu Kang'an's frowning brow and comforted him.

Although He Jia's request was presumptuous, it was not a big deal.

The only thing He Xi was worried about was that the more anxious they were about getting pregnant, the more unlikely it would be. She was afraid that He Jia and Fu Long'an would still have a long way to go!

He Xi mentioned his concerns, and Fu Kang'an chuckled.

"Don't worry, my second brother is very smart." Fu Kang'an was not worried at all. If we were to say who is the most sinister person in this family, Fu Long'an would definitely be on the list.

Don't be fooled by his usual smiling face, he is known as the Smiling Tiger, and people even count the money for him after he sells something.

Fu Longan really likes He Jia, and he will definitely handle their affairs well.

Hexi nodded when she heard that. Fukang'an saw that Hexi seemed to be thinking about something, so he suddenly picked Hexi up.

"Ah! What are you doing?"

"My princess, it's time to go to bed." Fu Kang'an said righteously, and He Xi was speechless.

As he spoke, Fukangan strode towards the bed, covered himself with the quilt and went to sleep.

It is already difficult for Hexi to be pregnant. If possible, Fukang'an hopes that no one will worry Hexi.

Everyone has his or her own orbit, or to put it more mysteriously, that is destiny.

***

Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, He Xi was already five months pregnant.

During this period, He Xi often went to the palace to discuss pregnancy matters with the Queen.

Well, I don’t know that when she was pregnant, she also had her period every day.

The Queen was naturally welcome. It was fine before she got married, but after she got married, the Queen missed Hexi very much.

The Queen looked at Hexi's pregnant belly, seeming to be thinking about something.

Then he worried that he was overthinking, so he looked up at Madam Rong.

Aunt Rong winked and nodded.

After Hexi's morning sickness was over, her appetite improved a lot. Fukang'an was also very upset because he vomited everything he ate a few days ago.

Hexi was used to observing people's words and expressions, and when she saw that the Queen's expression was not right, her heart tightened.

"Empress Dowager, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, don't worry. Yaolin has been suffering a lot during this period."

He Xi said coquettishly: "Empress Dowager, I am pregnant with his child."

Hexi often couldn't eat during the day, but would have an appetite at night, so Fukang'an could only look around for what Hexi wanted to eat.

It was the middle of the night and there was curfew. It was still okay for those who had food in the mansion, but Fu Kang'an, who didn't have food in the mansion, wanted to climb over the wall to steal vegetables in the middle of the night.

It's a sad tear.

He Xi was not the kind of person who did not know what was good for him, and he saw how much Fu Kang'an had contributed to her.

She didn't think that Fu Kang'an was doing this as a favor, after all, pregnancy was so hard, but the couple had to see each other's efforts so that their relationship could get better and better.

So she just acted coquettishly in response to the queen's words.

The queen shook her head helplessly and asked Madam Rong to call Chang Shou over to check his pulse.

"Let the imperial physician take a look at you later."

"Yes."

When Chang Shou saw that it was Rong Mama from Kunning Palace, he took his medicine box and followed her very naturally and skillfully.

As usual, he took the Queen's pulse first. The Queen had lived a comfortable life in recent years, so her health was naturally good.

Chang Shou said some polite words, and the Queen asked him to take Hexi's pulse.

"Doctor Chang, please take a look at Xi'er."

"Whoo."

Actually, although the pulse diagnosis time is short, it is also very difficult, and every second feels like a year.

Chang Shou frowned, sometimes loose and sometimes tense, with an extremely rich expression.

Hexi felt that a long time had passed before Changshou finally finished the diagnosis.

"Reporting to Her Majesty, Princess Hexi's pulse is good and the fetus is healthy. Everything is fine."

"Then why does it seem to me that Xier's belly is much bigger than others?" the Queen said worriedly.

Chang Shou pondered for a moment and said, "The princess is probably pregnant with twins, which is why her belly is much bigger than others."

The queen's heart, which had been at ease when she heard this, began to worry again.
