Early the next morning, when Emperor Mingde got up, he saw the queen dressing in front of the mirror. Thinking of the conversation in the early morning, he felt powerless for a while, so he beckoned Fuquan to come over, turned his back to the queen and said softly: "After the queen returns to the palace in the afternoon If you are in a bad mood, you can ask everyone in Hui'an Palace to persuade you to ask the imperial physician as soon as there is any sign of something wrong, you know?"

Fuquan was very puzzled: "Your Majesty, this servant doesn't understand very well."

"You don't have to understand, just do as I tell you."

"……Yes."

The queen on one side didn't see Emperor Mingde's worried eyes at all, and she put the pearl hairpin on her bun, and Bi Tao, who was serving behind her, smiled and said: "Your Majesty, what good things do you have today, seeing your glorious face , looking good."

"Really?" The queen's face became even brighter, "Actually, I didn't sleep long last night."

"My lady didn't sleep well last night, and she is still in such good spirits today, it must be something good. I don't know if this servant has the honor to listen."

The queen pointed at Bitao and scolded with a smile: "As long as you are smart, I don't know if something good happened today. If there is something good, then I will wake up laughing from my dreams."

Chun Tao greeted her with a flattering way: "The maid and maid came together today, and the magpies on the tree have been calling all the time, presumably it is to celebrate the arrival of the empress in advance."

"Oh?" The queen was overjoyed, "This is really a good omen, Chun Zhi came to show Bengong, which of these two clothes looks better on Bengong."

The queen pointed to the red and blue palace dresses and asked, Chuntao pretended to have a closer look, and then said: "Your Majesty, I think this red suits your complexion better today, what do you think?"

"I think so too, it's booming and good luck is at stake."

After getting dressed, the queen immediately ordered someone to prepare the sedan chair, and went all the way to Prince Ning's mansion without stopping.

At this time, the small inkstone was arranging the work of the servants of King Ning's mansion, and when he looked up, he saw the queen leading a group of people walking towards the lobby, he was so frightened that his knees almost went limp, and hurriedly waved back a group of people to meet them quickly .

"Slave Xiao Yantai has met the empress, and the empress is a thousand years old."

"Get up." The queen raised her hand casually, and walked to the main seat in the lobby first. After she was seated, the clever little maid immediately brought hot tea. The queen picked up the teacup but didn't drink it. Xiao Yantai asked: "Where are your prince and Zhengjun?"

The little inkstone knelt down on the ground with a "plop": "Go back to your mother, the prince and Zhengjun have not got up yet, the slave will be called."

"Don't shout, let them have a good rest." Only then did the queen remember that the full moon banquet in the palace was over last night, and because of Li Simi's affairs, everyone was exhausted, and she was old and had something to do. Zaixin couldn't sleep, but young people are sleepy after all, not to mention that if Zihua really had it, he should have a good rest. Now that he is looking for it in such a hurry, he feels a little embarrassed.

Thinking of this, the queen's face became a little embarrassing, she looked up and saw that the little inkstone was still kneeling on the ground, she immediately waved him to get up: "Take me to the garden first, by the way, last time I gave you a How does Zhengjun's Wei Zi look?"

Xiaoyantai got up and said with a smile: "Madam, Zhengjun took good care of that pot of Wei Zi. The flowers didn't thank you until last month. The leaves, dark green, are almost dripping with oil. You go I'm sure you'll like it after seeing it?"

"I didn't expect Zi Hua to be an expert at growing flowers. It just so happens that the pots of camellias in my palace are a little wilted, so I will ask someone to send them to your house so that your Zhengjun can raise them for me. "

"Your Majesty, my Zhengjun must be very happy, Your Majesty, please come here." With a wave of his hand, Xiao Yantai invited the Empress to the backyard, winking and gesticulating at a servant in the mansion when the whole group was not paying attention Lip shape: "Go and call the prince."

An Xining and Zihua, who were missed by everyone, were hugging and sleeping at this time. It was June and the weather was getting hotter, so the two of them were only wrapped with a thin layer of silk quilt. The clothes on their bodies had been worn overnight. The tossing and turning seemed to be messy, but Zihua was still in good order, while An Xining was completely out of shape, the hem of his clothes was lifted up to his stomach, his long legs stretched out from the quilt and entangled Zihua's legs, and one hand was trapped. Holding Zihua's waist, the other hand stretched out, which became Zihua's pillow.

The two of them were sleeping soundly when they heard a knock on the door outside, Zi Hua buried his face in An Xining's neck and dawdled twice, muttering, "I want to sleep."

An Xining was also confused at this time, but subconsciously hugged Zihua a little tighter, covered his ears with one hand, patted his shoulder with the other, and comforted Zihua to sleep again.

But the people outside the door were obviously very persevering, knocking on the door once was not enough, another attack came again, Zi Hua finally got impatient, kicked An Xining and said, "Go and open the door."

Now Zihua is one person who speaks and two people give orders, how can An Xining disobey?Immediately got out of bed and went to open the door: "You bastard, I don't know that this king and Zhengjun are resting, how many of your heads dare to disturb you."

"My lord," the little eunuch outside the door felt aggrieved, "It's not that the servant wants to disturb you, it's really a last resort. The empress has come, and she is enjoying the flowers in the yard now."

"Mother is coming?" An Xining shouted loudly, "Why didn't you tell me earlier."

"Slave said it." The little eunuch was even more aggrieved. If you say it, you will be scolded, but if you don't say it, you will be scolded. It is difficult to be a slave, and it is even more difficult to be a slave of King Ning!

An Xining then walked back and put on the clothes that had been draped over his shoulders just now, and the little eunuch who followed followed suit: "My lord, the empress ordered that you and Zhengjun not be disturbed, so I beg you, please don't say yes." The servant woke you up."

"Since the queen mother won't let you bother, why do you bother?"

"My lord, please be sympathetic to us poor slaves. I really didn't come to call you and Zhengjun. The empress didn't blame me. The slaves themselves were scared to death first."

"Okay, okay, this king won't tell the queen mother, now you go out first, this king has to serve Zhengjun and get up."

"Yes, the slave will leave." The servants of Prince Ning's Mansion were no stranger to the fact that the prince served Zhengjun and got up, so they could calmly respond to An Xining's words.

After the little eunuch retreated, An Xining was about to lift the curtain, but saw Zi Hua coming out by herself, her clothes had already been arranged.

"Zi Hua, don't you want to sleep a little longer?"

"Mother is coming, what does it look like if we fall asleep here again?" Zi Hua hung up the jade pendant An Xining gave him, "I'm afraid we can't hide the fact that my mother is coming today."

"What?" An Xining was at a loss, why did such a sudden sentence come out of nowhere.

Zihua gave him a speechless look: "Yesterday, I was interviewed in the palace... the empress mother may have become suspicious, and she must have come here today to inquire about it."

"No way, normal people wouldn't think of a man giving birth."

Zihua sighed: "My mother is as careful as a hair. I found out yesterday that she has been secretly watching us, and today she came here early. It is very likely that she has suspicions."

"Then what to do, shall we tell or not tell."

"If you can hide it for a while, you can't hide it for a lifetime, not to mention that she is your mother, he has the right to know, but..." Zi Hua frowned, but it was really against ethics for him to become pregnant as a man. Alright, if he doesn't accept it, what should he and An Xining do.

Seeing the worry in Zihua's eyes, An Xining stepped forward and hugged him in his arms: "Don't worry about Zihua, do you know how I felt after learning that you were pregnant with Rui'er? I have no fear or doubt , I just feel that Ruier is a gift from the heavens, and I believe you, Zihua, think the same way, so you accept it so calmly, don't you?"

Zi Hua nodded: "No matter what, he is our blood after all."

"I think the empress mother feels the same as us. I don't know how the world will treat us, but I know that our relatives will definitely accept us, so don't worry Zihua."

Zi Hua looked at him deeply, his eyes dark as ink, and after a while he said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The two found the queen in the flower garden in the backyard. Accompanied by the small inkstone, the queen was in a good mood to appreciate the Wei Zi plant that was irrigated with ginseng soup day and night.

"Mother, I am really sorry to keep you waiting for so long."

The queen didn't care much: "Why do the family talk about birth control? It's also not good for the queen mother. She came here early in the morning, but did it disturb your rest?"

"No, what did you say, queen mother? I'm so happy that you are here, so I don't want to disturb you." An Xining sweetly helped the queen to walk to the flower hall, but the queen gave him a look, "What are you doing supporting the queen? I haven’t drawn carefully yet.”

An Xining and Zi Hua were both taken aback, and after looking at each other, they both saw the affirmation in each other's eyes.

A few people were sitting in the compartment of the flower hall. The queen waved away the people around her and just sat there drinking tea quietly. Before An Xining's patience was about to run out, she said, "The queen mother is going to greet you today. Here comes the reward."

An Xining laughed dryly: "What did the empress mother say? What can you ask for a reward from my ministers?"

"My mother didn't know how much you pushed behind Li Simi's incident last night, but my mother also helped you fulfill your wish. Isn't this worthy of my mother's reward later?"

An Xining wiped the sweat from his forehead: "What reward do you want, Empress?"

"The empress wants you to answer a question truthfully," the empress looked at Zihua with blazing eyes, "Is what the merchant said yesterday true?"

"What did the merchant say?"

"Still pretending to be confused for the mother?"

An Xining shrank his head and didn't dare to answer, Zi Hua said: "Just as the queen mother expected."

"Really?" The queen stood up all of a sudden, and then felt that she had lost her composure, so she sat down awkwardly in the eyes of the two, and asked with suppressed excitement, "Zi Hua, are you really pregnant?"

Although Zihua was calm on the surface, he was at a loss inside. Hearing the queen's question, he replied: "Mother, I don't know why, but I think it must have happened."

"Is there any other reason? God must have heard the mother's day and night prayers, and then showed mercy." The queen smiled happily, and this good thing could make her wake up from her dreams.

An Xining tentatively said: "Mother, don't you think it's strange? Zihua is a man."

The queen glared at him: "No matter how strange it is, that's your Zhengjun, the mother's daughter-in-law. It's too late for the mother to thank him, so why would you find it strange?" After speaking, the queen came to the sub-screen, grabbed his hand and said, "Good boy, The queen mother knows that you are uneasy. As a man, you are still pregnant, and you will be questioned by the world, but you have to look at everything in your life, and don't care about people who have nothing to do. The key is to live a good life. In the past, the queen mother was always worried about you. Having no children will lead to a bleak old age, but if you follow people's wishes today, what is better than this good news, don't you think?"

"What the mother said is that it's just the father's side..."

Hearing Zihua's hesitation, the queen comforted him and said, "Don't worry about your father, the queen mother has her own way to deal with it. Besides, your father objected to you because you couldn't have children. Now that he is satisfied, he's afraid You are happier than the queen mother. The most important thing now is yourself. This pregnancy is completely incomparable to usual. You must not make any mistakes. No, you two brats have no experience and are both outside the palace. Why don't you feel relieved in this palace, how about Zihua you to live in the palace?"

"No!" An Xining was the first to stand up to object, "Zi Hua is my rightful emperor, of course he wants to live with me. Queen Mother, you can't beat mandarin ducks with a stick."

"Empress, if the son moves into the palace, it will definitely attract people's tongues. Besides, the son doesn't want to be so high-profile. One more person who knows will be more dangerous."

Seeing that both of them objected, the queen gave up the idea, but she still insisted: "It's fine not to enter the palace, but the mother must send a confidant to take care of Zihua, otherwise the mother will not feel at ease even if she returns to the palace."

Before the two of them refused, the queen chatted with Zi Hua again, wishing to tell him all about her two pregnancy experiences, and seeing An Xining listening beside her in pain, she slapped him on the head with a slap : "Listen to the empress, now that Zihua is pregnant, you should be more caring and considerate, bear with anger and suffering, and take good care of Zihua, otherwise the empress will only ask you."

An Xining was speechless, and his status in the mansion dropped drastically.

I have to say that the queen's efficiency is still very high, she sent someone over the night she returned to the palace, An Xining was almost dumbfounded seeing the old and young in front of her.

The older one, in his forties, has a slightly fatter figure, and smile lines appear on his chubby face. He looks like a fat, easy-going person with a big heart.The younger one is a young woman in her twenties, with a well-proportioned figure and fair skin. Although she is not beautiful, she is very eye-catching. Her eyes are calm and gentle, which makes people feel good.

Xiao Yantai introduced from the side: "My lord, Zhengjun, this is Nanny Gui and female doctor Cao from the palace."

An Xining and Zi Hua nodded towards them, the woman stepped forward to bless her body, and smiled without saying a word: "My lord, Zhengjun, this old slave is sent by the empress to take care of Zhengjun and the unborn little son. , This is Lao Nu's daughter-in-law, named Huan Ximei, who has been studying medicine in the palace since she was a child, and this time she was sent by the Empress to be with Lao Nu, so that Zheng Jun can feel at ease."

Zi Hua nodded slightly: "Lao Gui Gui and Doctor Cao are here."

"What did Zhengjun say? Being able to serve you is a blessing that the old slave and his daughter-in-law have cultivated for several generations. As long as the youngest son is born in the next year, you can seal a big red envelope, and the old slave will be satisfied."

On the surface, Nanny Gui's words seemed to be asking for a reward, but in terms of strength, she was flattering the two of them in a roundabout way, wishing Zihua a smooth delivery of the fetus, and rewarding the servant.

Sure enough, An Xining was overjoyed when he heard it: "It's for sure, when the time comes, Nanny Gui, don't think that the king's red envelopes will be short."

After a few people chatted and laughed, Nanny Gui straightened her face: "My lord, Zhengjun, although you are masters and I am a slave, for the sake of the health of the little prince, from now on everyone and everything in this mansion must be respected." Listen to the old slave, including your diet and daily life, Zhengjun, you must not neglect everything, do you two think so?"

An Xining and Zi Hua nodded with difficulty: "Yes."

"The lord and Zhengjun are really sensible people," Nanny Gui smiled, "Since that's the case, it's not too late to do this matter. Zhengjun, from now on you can't eat anything that is taboo, and you can't do any violent movements. Stop anger, stop anger, stop impetuosity, can you do it?"

Zi Hua's smile froze on his face, An Xining gloated and said, "Zi Hua, it seems that from now on you will just lie on the bed and wait for the Lord to come."

It was originally a joke, but Nanny Gui frowned and said in disapproval: "My lord, Zhengjun is unusual at this time, all intercourse must be prohibited, you can't be foolish and make trouble with him at this time."

Just as An Xining was about to explain, Nanny Gui continued: "Pregnancy is not a matter of one person. Your lord, you should also avoid some personal matters, and learn more about how to take care of your pregnant wife. Tomorrow morning, you will be with the old man." Let's learn."

An Xining's expression cracked, it turned out that Zihua was not the only one imprisoned! ?
