Ever since Jiang Chuwei was diagnosed with pregnancy, Lin Muheng, the emperor who was usually busy with government affairs, began to try his best to squeeze out a lot of time from his busy work to accompany her.

He was extremely caring towards Jiang Chuwei, as if there was nothing more important in the world than taking good care of her.

Not only that, in order to better meet Jiang Chuwei's various needs and preferences during pregnancy, Lin Muheng also went to ask his ministers for advice.

During a court meeting, while discussing state affairs, Lin Muheng suddenly asked, "My dear ministers, do your wives have any favorite foods or favorite things to do during pregnancy?"

After saying this, he looked at the ministers in the audience with a sincere face. His serious look of seeking advice and not being ashamed to ask questions made people laugh.

However, faced with the emperor's sudden question, the ministers looked at each other, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

After all, when their wives give birth, they usually have special servants to take good care of them, and the men as heads of the family rarely take care of these details personally.

So at this moment, most ministers were thinking: Why do we need to worry about such things?

Seeing the ministers remaining silent, Lin Muheng wondered in his heart: Is it because the current occasion is not appropriate?

At this time, the Minister of War Song Hao stood up and said, "Your Majesty! My wife likes sour food the most when she is pregnant, and her mood swings are large, and she is often easily angry. Sometimes when I come home a little late due to official duties, she will become petty."

Hearing this, Lin Muheng immediately perked up and asked quickly, "Did you particularly like sour food when you were pregnant with your eldest son?"

He just looked at Song Hao expectantly, and continued to maintain the attitude of asking questions without feeling ashamed, because he had heard that most mothers who are pregnant with sons like sourness.

Seeing this, Song Hao hurriedly replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, in fact, it is not necessarily only when you are pregnant with a boy that you like sour food. When my wife was pregnant with a daughter, she also preferred sour food."

Then, he went on to describe in detail some other circumstances surrounding his wife's pregnancy, telling her everything he knew.

It’s a pity that time flies. Now his children have grown up, and the days when his wife was pregnant have long become a distant memory.

When the ministers heard what Song Hao said, they all looked unhappy and thought to themselves: Song Hao is really good at pleasing the emperor! Who knows whether what he said is true or false?

However, when these ministers saw that the emperor actually asked for their advice in a humble manner, they immediately panicked and began to ponder the dietary preferences of their wives or concubines when they were pregnant.

In an instant, the originally solemn and dignified court turned into a place for everyone to exchange parenting experiences.

On this day, Lin Muheng had just come off court and he could not wait to order the imperial kitchen to prepare a variety of sour foods and send them to Fengning Palace.

After a while, the palace maids and eunuchs came in one after another and placed a table full of sour delicacies in front of Jiang Chuwei.

Looking at the dazzling array of sour foods in front of her, Jiang Chuwei couldn't help but widen her eyes and was completely dumbfounded - how could anyone eat so many sour things?

She felt very aggrieved because she had never mentioned that she preferred sour food!

At this time, Lin Muheng picked up a piece of sour plum cake with great interest, personally brought it to Jiang Chuwei's mouth, and said gently: "Come, Wei'er, try this."

Jiang Chuwei had no choice but to open her mouth and take a small bite, but at that moment, her brows were tightly furrowed, and she didn't look as enjoyable as Song Hao said.

Seeing this, Lin Muheng quickly put down the cake in his hand and asked anxiously: "What's wrong? Doesn't it taste good?"

Jiang Chuwei shook her head and replied softly, "Husband, I am still young and don't have any favorite food for now."

Hearing this, Lin Muheng heaved a sigh of relief and said, "So that's how it is. I was worried that the food in the imperial kitchen wasn't delicious enough! In that case, just tell me what you want to eat and I'll have someone bring it to you right away."

Jiang Chuwei smiled and reached out to hold Lin Muheng, saying softly: "Thank you for your concern, husband. In fact, I think the meals made by Nanny Li are the most to my taste. As long as I can eat those, it's enough."

Lin Muheng then gave up.

However, at this moment, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart: "Could it be that, as I guessed, Song Hao is so old that his memory is distorted?"

Just as he was wondering about this, Mrs. Li suddenly came in with a table full of mouth-watering delicacies.

Every dish, whether in color, aroma or taste, is eye-catching.

Jiang Chuwei took a look and saw that the table was filled with delicacies. Her appetite was immediately aroused and her saliva was almost flowing out.

The same went for Lin Muheng standing by. After all, the table full of delicious food was too tempting.

You know, the two of them never like having someone to serve them during meals, so at this moment in this huge palace, there are only the two of them sitting opposite each other, enjoying this rare quiet time.

During the meal, Lin Muheng kept paying attention to Jiang Chuwei's preferences.

After some careful observation, he found that even after she became pregnant, Jiang Chuwei's daily taste did not seem to have changed much.

Seeing the queen eating so heartily, Lin Muheng was in a good mood and unknowingly added an extra bowl of rice than usual.

Having said that, Jiang Chuwei's body has indeed undergone a lot of changes since she became pregnant.

The most obvious point is that it is very easy to feel sleepy. Often, not long after a meal, sleepiness comes like a tide.

However, if you just sleep in without exercising, it may not be beneficial for future childbirth.

So, Jiang Chuwei forced herself to cheer up and took Lin Muheng to the Imperial Garden for a walk to digest the food.

As they walked, they came to the former plum garden.

Looking at the empty land in front of her, Jiang Chuwei couldn't help but fall into deep memories.

Recalling the first time I met Concubine Mei here, the entire plum garden was filled with refreshing fragrance, which made me intoxicated.

Unfortunately, times have changed. Not only has the plum garden been ordered to be cut down by the late emperor, but even Concubine Mei has long since passed away, turning into a distant soul.

As fate would have it, Concubine Mei's son was now raised in her care.

Thinking of Lin Mulang, Jiang Chuwei's smile spread...
