On the wedding night, the substitute princess cured the war king's poison

"Your Majesty, are you drawing cakes for your children now?" Ning Luo said with a smile.

"What does drawing a pie mean?" Xiao Ding was curious.

It doesn't sound like a good word.

"The big cake is just a promise made in advance that has not yet been completed, so that others are full of expectations, but if our children hear it, they will definitely be happy." Ning Luo said euphemistically: "I don't know if the prince will be able to keep his promise. .”

"I will definitely do what I said. I will protect you, mother and son, in peace and happiness for the rest of their lives." Xiao Ding solemnly promised.

"Then if he is naughty, will the prince beat him and punish him?"

Ning Luo felt that Xiao Ding might implement militarized management of his children.

After all, he used to be serious and a military commander.

"Absolutely not. I can only teach you earnestly."

Xiao Ding imagined holding a soft, cute child with his own blood, and his heart was instantly filled with fatherly love.

No matter how willing you are to spank your own children, you absolutely cannot.

She must be pampered as much as she can.

"Okay, baby, listen carefully, your father will never hit you in the future." Ning Luo told the baby in her belly gently.

"Yes, my father will never bear to beat you, so you can rest assured." Xiao Ding's eyes were filled with tenderness.

"Luo'er, have you noticed that our baby is moving? Can he understand what we are saying?"

He was raised rough and didn't know much about women giving birth.

"The baby is only a little over a month old now, and it will take four or five months before he can move." Ning Luo compared his fingers and said, "He is only so big now."

As big as a finger?

"Why is my king's child so small?" Xiao Ding was worried: "Luo'er, is it because of your hard work recently? From today on, you can focus on raising the baby and don't have to worry about all military and government affairs."

After speaking, he added: "Now that our children have grown up, you, the mother, have to eat more food. Whatever you want to eat, I will cook it for you now."

"Then I want to order some food." Ning Luo said bluntly: "I want to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake and fish with pine nuts."

"Okay, I will start cooking right away. Just lie down on the bed and don't move."

Xiao Ding carefully helped Ning Luo lie down on the bed, covered her with a quilt, kissed her forehead, and quickly went to the kitchen to cook.

They are now in a space with abundant ingredients. Xiao Ding has learned how to cook several kinds of meals, and these two things are not difficult for him.

Although making sweet-scented osmanthus cake was a bit troublesome, he didn't find it cumbersome at all when he thought it was for his wife and children.

In the eyes of the world, he was a powerful regent of the Yan Kingdom. Now, he was a husband and a father.

Thinking that next year there will be a child who will call him father, Xiao Ding's heart is filled with joy and the corners of his mouth are raised.

In this life, he has not been able to enjoy sincere father's love. He has been guarded and framed by his father, and he has never been raised by his mother. All his shortcomings have been made up for by Ning Luo.

How lucky he is to have a wife who truly loves him in this life.

Ning Luo was lying there bored, so he simply picked up a book and read.

Prepare to carry out prenatal education in advance.

No matter how powerful the parents are, children must always be able to protect themselves.

From now on, her children must learn both civil and military skills, and Taoism and medical skills must not be left behind.

Ning Luo first read the Tao Te Ching to the children.

Xiao Ding came back with the prepared food and saw Ning Luo studying, so he hurriedly advised: "Luo'er, why don't you have a good rest? Don't be tired."

"Your Majesty, I am here to provide prenatal education for the child. He will start learning in the womb early in the morning, and he will be smarter and more diligent after he is born." Ning Luo explained.

"It takes ten months to get pregnant and the baby is ready. I can't lie down all the time. When the fetus sits firmly at three months, I have to move around frequently, otherwise it will be difficult to give birth."

"I see."

Xiao Ding gently held her in his arms and said to the child in his belly: "Baby, you have worked hard, and now your mother is forcing you to study."

Ning Luo smiled and said: "You have to work hard when you are young, so you will be able to endure less hardship in the future. For example, the prince and I both grew up through hardships when we were young. Otherwise, how could we have achieved the stability we have now? Our children will also have to be self-reliant in the future."

"What Luo'er said is true." Xiao Ding immediately appreciated it.

Although he and Ning Luo came from noble families, they had survived until now based on their ability.

No matter how much you love your child, you should let him learn a skill.

What's more, he is prepared to inherit the country of Yan and become a wise king.

"Luo'er, from now on the important task of reading and enlightening will be handed over to me. I also have a lot of knowledge to impart to our children."

Xiao Ding thought that his children must be proficient in the art of war, and he could also talk to his children in advance about the political affairs of governing the country.

"Okay." Ning Luo smiled softly, naturally wanting to receive his considerate care during pregnancy.

Xiao Ding picked her up and sat on his lap, kissed her lovingly, and advised: "Let the child rest for a while now. It's time to supplement her nutrition. She needs to grow stronger so that she can be both civilized and martial in the future."

"The osmanthus cake is still steaming, let's try the pine nut fish first."

He carefully picked out the fish bones, and then fed small pieces of fish meat into Ningluo.

Ning Luo ate with satisfaction.

Let Xiao Huai hold this throne for the time being. Whoever becomes the emperor is too busy to take care of his wife and children.

We can wait until her child is born safely.

Xiao Ding did not disclose Ning Luo's pregnancy to the public, firstly for her safety, and secondly because he did not want to disturb the public.

Therefore, as winter approached, the regent did not return to Kyoto.

The information received by the emperor was that the regent had set up schools and medical clinics in northern Xinjiang, rewarded land reclamation and farming, and trained troops and competed in martial arts, and was loved by the people.

He also took the princess on tours in the vassal countries from time to time, and seemed to have no interest in coming back to seize the throne.

This actually surprised him.

It seems that I am overthinking it.

The fourth brother did not love power and position, and it was Liu who instigated discord among his brothers.
