Empress is pregnant

On the way, the two imperial physicians were a little uneasy. The emperor called urgently at night, which was no small matter.

One of the imperial physicians gave advice to the little eunuch who sent the message, "Can the father-in-law tell you what happened to Fengwu Palace?"

The little eunuch was benefited, and lowered his voice, "It is said that the empress's stomach is uncomfortable, I don't know anything else."

This stomach discomfort can be big or small, the small case is stomach diarrhea caused by eating, and the worst case is intestinal abscess, which is an incurable disease, and it is close to death.

The two imperial physicians are a little weak-legged, and companions are like companions to tigers. Which imperial physician in the palace doesn't live with his head pinned to his trouser belt?

But it's useless to say anything now, they all know how much the emperor loves the empress, but for a moment, they feel a little heavy in their hearts, but they have to wait for the pulse to make a judgment.

Fengwu Palace, the queen's bedroom.

Before the two imperial physicians had time to salute, they were stopped by the emperor, "Stop talking nonsense, and show the queen what's going on."

There is a difference between men and women, let alone the most honorable woman of Dayu lying inside.

The two imperial physicians did not dare to be sloppy, and took out the silk thread for pulse diagnosis and handed it to the maid.

The maids are all experienced, and usually when the imperial physicians are invited to fix the Ping'an pulse, they will personally wrap it for the empress.

"Give it to me." The emperor took it, "You all step back."

At this moment, both the emperor and the empress were wearing pajamas, and it was not uncommon for them not to want to be served close by.

Pulling the bed curtain, the empress carefully wrapped the silk thread around the emperor's wrist.

On the other end of the silk thread, an imperial doctor put his finger on, and after a while, his legs trembled.

Afterwards, he asked another imperial physician to take his pulse, but the other imperial physician also trembled.

This pulse is really weird, it looks a bit like a man's pulse, but why does a man's pulse appear to be pregnant, or is it a sign of fetal gas?

But there were only the emperor and empress lying in it, and there was no one else.

The emperor is pregnant?Just kidding, the two imperial doctors automatically threw this terrible thought out of their heads.

It must be because the Empress has practiced martial arts all year round, and her pulse is stronger and stronger than that of ordinary women.

Well, it must be so.

The two imperial doctors looked at each other and knelt down with a plop, "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the empress, the empress is happy, but the month is still young, less than a month, so there is no image."

The voices of the two imperial doctors announcing the good news were not low, and the eunuchs and maids inside and outside all knelt down unanimously after hearing it, "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the empress, congratulations to the empress."

No one knows better than them how important this child is to today's royal family.

The two emperors and empresses on the bed held each other's hands tightly and stared at each other affectionately.

They really did, and they're close to having a baby of their own.

Apart from joy, the empress's mood was a little more complicated. The man in front of her was her husband, who loved her and respected her. Now even things like childbirth were taken care of.

What should she do to be worthy of her husband's affection?

The emperor gave her a comforting look, and kissed her forehead again.

When he chose to eat this fruit, he never regretted it. When Shu'er was pregnant with that child, she lost a lot of weight when she vomited whatever she ate. Let him bear such suffering.

Now that he really has a child, he can be regarded as fulfilled.

"Reward, the empress is very happy. Everyone in the palace will reward you with silver for one month." The emperor waved his hand on the bed, "Exclude the death row criminals and the heinous, and give the world amnesty."

Long live the emperor, and the voice of the empress resounded throughout the palace in the middle of the night.

It's just, "Since she is pregnant, I, cough, why does my queen have abdominal pain?"

"Return to the emperor's words." An imperial physician stepped forward slightly, "May I ask what the emperor and empress had for dinner?"

What did you have for dinner?

Even though these two people are the most honorable people in Dayu, three meals a day are restricted, pay attention to a balanced nutrition, a combination of meat and vegetables, and you can't eat too much of a dish, three or five chopsticks is the limit.

And from the imperial dining room to the empress's table, it has to be checked at every level, basically there is no such thing as a bad stomach.

The maid stepped forward and announced the menu for tonight.

The two imperial physicians were thoughtful after hearing this, "Your Majesty, the empress's symptoms are fetal gas, which should be due to eating food that is not suitable for pregnancy, but there seems to be nothing wrong with the dinner."

Another imperial physician also asked: "Did you eat barley porridge or almond cake? Both of these should not be eaten during pregnancy."

And these two desserts are afternoon tea snacks that noble people often eat.

Speaking of almond cake, the empress and the emperor looked at each other.

After dinner, some pastries were served in the small kitchen of Fengwu Palace, among them was almond cake. After eating two pieces, the empress felt a little greasy, and the emperor took a bite of the remaining piece to taste it.

Thinking about it now, both of them are terrified.

Fortunately, the one who ate the almond cake was the empress, and the one who was pregnant was the emperor.

Otherwise, the child they were looking forward to with great difficulty would be almost in danger.

The imperial doctor prescribed some anti-fetal drugs, and explained the contraindications during pregnancy and things that would affect pregnant women, and then withdrew.

Immediately afterwards, the emperor issued an order to remove everything that would affect the fetus from the palace, even flowers and plants.

The people in the palace were all newcomers who were replaced after that incident. Although they may not know exactly what happened that year, they have heard more or less.

The empress has not been pregnant for many years, and now she finally has one. Anyone with a little brain knows the importance, and dare not be sloppy at all, for fear of losing their minds.

This night, it is doomed that there will be no sleep in the Royal Palace.

Before dawn, the emperor drank the anti-fetal medicine and not long after he fell asleep, the eunuch who was nearby came to wake him up, and it was time to go to court.

The emperor got up from the bed in a daze, "Change."

The empress's eyes were full of distress, and his seventh prince could not have had to suffer from this.

"Shu'er, relax." Mu Jingze comforted her in turn, "I have to go to court today, I want to announce to the world that the empress is pregnant, and then arrange the court affairs, and we can go to another courtyard to recuperate."

At that time, I will be able to sleep in every day, and there is no rush for such a day.

In fact, Mu Jingze has been gradually arranging these things since they came back from the world of female venerables.

Now the world is peaceful, although it is superficial, but at least there is no war and no natural disasters. The ministers of the DPRK and China are arranged to supervise the country, and in case of emergency, they will be rushed to the palace within [-] miles.

Can't delay anything.

What's more, the palace is not far from the capital, a journey of three or four hundred miles, and it will take half a day to arrive at a fast pace.

Mu Jingze, who had taken the anti-fetal medicine, no longer had stomach pains. It seemed that the imperial physicians in his palace were not quack doctors, and they were still somewhat useful.

For this reason, he also specially rewarded the imperial hospital, and the imperial physicians of the two parties were so excited that they burst into tears.

Mu Jingze was originally a martial arts practitioner, and in the past when he went to court, he always walked there.

One is to clear the mind in the morning, and the other is to exercise the body.

But for the first time today, he had someone lift the palanquin, and carried him all the way to the Zichen Palace.

The others didn't think much about it. The news about the empress's pregnancy had already spread. They all thought that the emperor loved his empress so much that he took care of her all night without taking off his clothes.

In the court hall, well-informed ministers already knew the news that the queen was pregnant.

At the moment they have different thoughts.

The empress had never been pregnant for ten years. Some time ago they were so hard-pressed that they even tried to find a way to follow the empress dowager's footsteps. All they wanted was to send their daughter into the palace as a concubine.

If they could give birth to a son and a half daughter for the emperor, their family's position would be stable.

But now that the queen is suddenly pregnant, this matter is not easy to operate.

Although what happened back then caused a big change in the court, but that matter is not a secret, and the current upstarts are more or less clear about it.

The emperor loves the empress so much, and the empress is also pregnant, so the matter of accepting the concubine may be difficult.

Mu Jingze looked at the courtiers below and sneered in his heart.

Among them are many officials promoted by him personally. Unexpectedly, instead of dedicating themselves to the country, these people now worry about his harem and their own power.

He sneered secretly, and announced on the spot that the queen was pregnant and that he was going to accompany the queen to the palace to have a baby.

Although some ministers objected, the objection was ineffective. Mu Jingze arranged everything properly and did not give these ministers any criticism at all.

The ministers have nothing to do with him, after all, he is the emperor, and this world is still the emperor's world.

Besides, let alone the emperor, even if they are loving couples from ordinary people, they will take good care of them after finally having a child.

In terms of emotion and reason, they should all understand.

After talking about this matter, the emperor resolutely transferred several officials. Those who should be promoted were promoted, and those who should be demoted were demoted. Some people even didn't know why they were promoted or demoted.

But the imperial decree has already been issued, and there is no way to recover, so they can only accept it.

Fengwu Palace.

In the past, when the emperor went to court, the queen would sleep again, and then get up again when the time came to go to the empress dowager's palace to settle down in the morning and evening.

But today, she couldn't sleep no matter what.

The emperor has gone to court, and he has to face so many ministers. I don't know if it will affect his body.

She regretted it countless times, regretting that she fell asleep the day she picked the fruit. If she hadn't fallen asleep, her Seventh Prince wouldn't have to face these things now.

The maids all advised her to have a good rest, the fetus was important, but she couldn't sleep well.

Before the emperor came to court, the queen mother came first.

"What is she here for?" The Empress muttered, but she still respectfully came out of the bedroom to greet her, and greeted her well.

The Empress Dowager gently stepped forward to help her up.

This attitude actually made the empress feel a little flattered.

It's just that the Empress Dowager's expression today is much more exciting than before.

Say she is happy, but she is a little melancholy, say she is not happy, those eyes kept looking at the queen's stomach.

The Empress understood when she saw a young woman in a green dress and gauze skirt following her.

She is really a mother-in-law, she just reported that she is pregnant last night, and the mother-in-law will come to give her son a woman today.

Thinking of this, Empress Empress' face turned cold.

She didn't understand why a mother never knew her son?

She didn't understand, her mother-in-law kept saying that she looked down on her from a family of military generals, and that a woman from a scholarly family was better, but her mother-in-law was a daughter from a scholarly family, and she didn't see how good it was.

Aside from the three points of elegance in behavior, what is the difference between her personality and those uneducated country peasant women?She's getting old, and she still worries about her son's bed.

Empress Empress is too lazy to talk to them now, after making false claims, she pretended that she didn't understand the hint left behind by the woman in Tsing Yi, and said to herself that she was pregnant and tired, and wanted to go back to bed to rest for a while, and she was about to excuse me.

The empress dowager was so upset by her, what can she say now?

After finally having a child, she couldn't embarrass the queen at this time.

As for the woman behind her, she was originally her natal niece, and she entered the palace specially to show her face in front of the emperor.

If it is changed to the past dynasties, if a favorite concubine becomes pregnant, that is the best time for other concubines to take the throne. After all, if they are pregnant, they cannot sleep with them.

But when it comes to her son, it doesn't seem to work.

The queen went to bed, and the empress dowager did not leave. She must wait here for her son today.

In the past, the morning court would not end until noon, but today's situation is special, the emperor resolved the matter of the court in threes and fives, and then drove back to Fengwu Palace in a sedan chair without stopping.

The emperor is a smart man, and he also understands his mother.

In recent years, there is not much affection left between mother and child, but he still gives enough respect as a son.

As soon as he entered the door, the woman in Tsing Yi knelt down and saluted, winking and shy, and he knew what was going on in an instant.

"Mother's queen." The emperor didn't even look at the woman on the ground, "Shu'er is just pregnant, Xi Jing, mother's mother should go back to rest earlier."

It can be said that today is completely disrespectful to the Queen Mother.

Before the empress dowager could retort angrily, the emperor said again: "Empress mother, I don't want what happened back then to happen again."

What happened back then was the biggest knot between mother and son.

As soon as this matter was mentioned, the queen mother had nothing to say, sighed, and was about to leave.

Conceived in October, and the days to come are long, he doesn't believe that his son, who is full of blood, can hold a gentle and caring woman whispering in his ear.

As soon as she thought this way, her hope was dashed again.

"The palace is not clean." The emperor said expressionlessly, "I will go to the palace with the queen in seven days to have a baby. During this period, I don't want anyone to disturb me."

The emperor's tone was stern and cold, "If anyone who doesn't have eyesight sneaks into the palace, he will be beaten to death with a stick, no joke."

He glanced at the woman on the ground again, and said, "If the queen mother is lonely, it's okay to go back to my uncle's house for a few months. Anyway, won't your niece chat with you to relieve boredom?"

This time, the queen mother was really angry, but she couldn't say anything to refute, so she could only take her niece and daughter and fling her sleeves to leave.

In the sleeping hall.

The empress dozed off on the bed, and got up immediately when she heard footsteps.

"Your Majesty, what effect does your body have on you?"

Mu Jingze smiled softly, "Is Shu'er worried about me, or about the child?"

The empress is rarely coquettish, "Of course I'm worried about the emperor's body."

Mu Jingze laughed loudly, "I'm fine, Shu'er doesn't need to worry, get ready, and you can leave in seven days at the latest."

The Empress hummed, and then took out the tablet computer she brought back from the tavern.

She downloaded a lot of information last night, but she couldn't understand a lot of things, and the matter was very important, so she had to discuss it with the emperor, and she couldn't hide it like before.

Mu Jingze is also very interested in the knowledge of other worlds, and this is also the first time he has acquired such a high technology as a tablet computer.

It's a little strange, like a child, flipping the screen with her fingers, and exclaiming in a low voice from time to time, the empress couldn't help laughing.

Back then, when she watched a TV series on a tablet computer for the first time, her performance was not as good as that of the emperor.

That world is indeed beautiful.

But she also believed that their world would one day catch up with Jiang Qiubai's world.

It took Mu Jingze a while to finish, and then he clicked on the downloaded folder under the empress' command.

The first thing they looked at was information on agricultural implements, curved plows, waterwheels, stone mills, and how to increase production.

At this time, they are still based on agriculture. Only when the common people can eat enough can everyone's life get better.

These documents are very detailed, even drawings.

Mu Jingze couldn't help being excited, "Shu'er, I'm not being polite to you, but I want to say thank you on behalf of the people of the world."

"Thank you, Boss Xie Jiang." The empress didn't dare to take the credit, "He remembered the question you asked last time in the empress, so he specially bought this computer so that we can check the information by ourselves."

Mu Jingze kept nodding, "Shu'er, in your opinion, how should we thank Boss Jiang?"

The Empress was also a little uncertain, "On weekdays, we drink and eat in the tavern, and Boss Jiang only asks us to pay a few golden melon seeds. I have been using the pile of useless jade pendants in the warehouse, and he also said good."

"No hurry." Mu Jingze thought for a while, "Boss Jiang must have no shortage of such yellow and white things. When I collect some rare objects, maybe Boss Jiang will favor him."

The empress glanced at him, but said nothing. He didn't say that Boss Jiang's eyes lit up when he saw the gold.

They are rich in jade mines, but gold mines are indeed less.

"By the way, Shu'er." Mu Jingze suddenly remembered, "You said that Boss Jiang gave you a batch of grain seeds before, how are you doing now?"

The empress basically handed over that batch of grain seeds to the General's Mansion for the farms under the General's Mansion to plant them. I wrote a few days ago that the growth rate was not bad.

"And the potatoes you mentioned, can the yield per mu really reach several thousand catties?"

The empress didn't doubt Boss Jiang at all, "The potatoes can be harvested in more than three months, and there is still about a month left, and we will see the result at that time."

The emperor thought the same way.

But he has never eaten this so-called high-yield grain, and the thoughts in his heart are the same as those of the empress before, and the food may not be very tasty.

However, the common people are still on the road of pursuing full food. It doesn’t matter whether it’s good or not. It’s the best thing to fill their stomachs and stop people from starving.

Next, the two studied some more complicated materials, such as cement and glass.

These are more complicated for them, mainly because there are many professional vocabulary in it that they cannot understand.

"Call the Ministry of Industry to come over and study." Mu Jingze greeted the queen, "Shu'er, thank you for your pen and drawing all the blueprints."

The empress was slightly stunned. The meaning of what the emperor said was self-evident, and he wanted to attribute all the credit to her.

I don't know why, but my eye sockets are a little sore.

She didn't refuse, she knew that the emperor was thinking of her, paving the way for their future children.

Only when her child's mother's position is stable, can the child have the right to speak, and the courtiers can't say anything about letting the emperor marry a concubine.

The minister of the Ministry of Industry was called to come here, and he was still a little angry. The emperor disrespected his courtiers too much, and actually discussed political affairs in the harem, but when he looked at the artwork in his hand, these thoughts could no longer arise.

It was like a raging fire that had been frozen directly.

He shook his hands, obviously knowing how important these blueprints are to the country.

He didn't dare to be sloppy, but he couldn't believe it. Was this really figured out by the empress?

This... the empress used to live in the deep palace, how did she know about the farmers' farming tools?

Although this minister is a little pedantic, but he is obsessed with research, and he is still a good minister.

The emperor and the empress also found a speech in advance.

"Earlier, my queen accidentally obtained a batch of seeds, so she opened up a small vegetable field in Fengwu Palace and cultivated it herself. After realizing that farming is not easy for farmers, she spent some time researching it."

That small vegetable plot grows peppers and tomatoes.

Now they are very prosperous.

The minister of the Ministry of Industry saw it and had no other doubts.

In his heart, he even admired, although the empress is a woman, she is not inferior to any man in the imperial court, and thinking about it, the empress once went to the battlefield, it is even more incredible.

Who said that women are inferior to men? Suddenly, this minister almost became a fan of the empress.

The two emperors and empresses looked at each other, knowing that this matter was done.

Seven days later, a mighty convoy departed from the palace.

The people all knew that the Empress Empress was pregnant, and that the Empress and Empress were going to the palace to raise a baby to avoid the heat, and they all knelt down to bless her.

Originally, for the sake of safety, he should go secretly, but the emperor was unwilling, so manpower was arranged inside and outside the palace, and it was surrounded like a copper wall, so there would be no security risks.

Now that everything has been properly arranged, it is natural that the whole world will enjoy the empress's pregnancy.

The palace is clean, the air is good, and the scenery is good.

The accompanying maids packed up the bedroom, and all retreated to the outer courtyard. There was only one maid and one eunuch who served her personally, and neither of them could enter the emperor's room casually, but could only wait outside at any time.

From this we can see how much the emperor attaches great importance to the empress and children.

"Shu'er." Mu Jingze took Yan Wushu's hand, "In the days to come, we can live like ordinary couples, and no one will disturb us anymore."

Yan Wushu smiled shyly, and performed the etiquette between husband and wife intimately, "My husband, please give me more advice."

Mu Jingze returned the gift, "Miss, please give me more advice."
