Volume 1 The Wind Rises in Heaven, Chapter 7 The Princess is Pregnant?
When the emperor sat down in the Ansheng Palace, the bright yellow dragon robe on his body was already wet with sweat, and he was dissatisfied with the rules of his ancestors, wondering why he was the emperor and did not have the freedom of ordinary farmers, and went to the court bare-chested.
The emperor raised his hand and let the palace maids change his clothes, at this time he found out that these palace maids today are all new faces, and the emperor sighed in his heart, could it be that the eldest princess did it so quickly? Thinking in his heart, his face remained unchanged, and he asked Xiao Luzi on the side: "Xiao Luzi, why have the faces of the people waiting around him changed." ”
The little Luzi stayed in the house for a while, and there was no sound, like a cat. He listened to the emperor's words and said: "Back to the emperor, it is Xu De, I heard that the emperor allocated funds from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to reward the front-line soldiers, and sent a group of palace maids for the emperor, saying that they are grateful for Jun's grace." ”
"Thank you?" The emperor smiled and tightened the cuffs of his regular clothes: "He thinks I'm starting to cherish my reputation, so I just send more people to keep an eye on me." You say no. He asked the ladies a question.
Several palace maids didn't answer him, but they all knelt down, and the emperor was bored with himself, so he let a few palace maids retreat.
He walked a few steps and sat down next to Bingjian next to the bookcase, Xiao Luzi saw this, took out the fruit that had been prepared in Bingjian for the emperor, and also brought the hard-fought "Gaozu Zhiyan" for the emperor.
The emperor picked and chose among the golden plates, and finally took a piece of muskmelon, put it in his mouth with his hand, and the juice of the muskmelon passed through his mouth and into his body, and the emperor's mind instantly cleared up a lot.
He didn't go to get the second piece of melon, but opened the book "Gaozu Zhiyan", after the dispersal of the dynasty yesterday, the emperor was like this, and began to carefully study the "Gaozu Zhiyan", and the little juvenile habits on his body were completely retreated. No one knew what the eldest princess and the emperor said, but when Gao Lishi saw the emperor's appearance, he was in tears, and he didn't care that the guards were still beside him, so he said, "God bless the big man." ”
The emperor continued yesterday's progress, and after reading a few lines, a line of words attracted his attention: The eunuch is still a slave, and he can't do it. The Emperor pondered the meaning of this sentence carefully, smiled, and just as he was about to continue looking down, he suddenly remembered that Gao Lishi, but he did not see it at all today.
He raised his head and asked Xiao Luzi, who was standing on the side, "Why didn't the eldest companion come to Ansheng Palace today?" ”
"Back to the emperor, maybe the weather is too hot, Gao Gonggong also basked in the sun at noon the day before yesterday, and Gao Gonggong fell ill after coming to see the emperor yesterday morning."
"Sick? Can it be said that the Imperial Doctor has been to see it? The emperor looked away from the book and looked at Xiao Luzi's thin cheeks.
"Your Majesty, after all, Grandpa Gao is not a golden body like you, how can you use the blessing of the imperial doctor, but I sent the little eunuch to the imperial hospital to get two doses of medicine, and in the morning, I heard the little eunuch Lu Xi who was by Grandpa Gao's side say that Grandpa Gao was already able to get out of bed."
The emperor nodded, and continued to read the boring "Gao Zu Zhiyan", subconsciously the emperor reached out to take the melon and fruit in the gold plate, Xiao Luzi saw this and moved the gold plate forward, the emperor touched the lychee, Xiao Luzi hurriedly helped him peel it, the emperor took it, and saw that it was about to be handed to his mouth, but he put it down, the lychee was crystal clear, and it looked very cute in the emperor's hands.
The emperor sighed: "If the great companion is here, he must persuade me to drink hot tea on a hot day, and I will hurt my body if I am greedy for cold." With that, he put the lychee back into the golden plate.
Xiao Luzi was already peeling the second lychee for the emperor, but after listening to the emperor's words, he quietly put the half-peeled lychee back into the golden plate, and said loudly: "Come on!" Serve tea! Hearing this, the palace maid who was waiting by the door withdrew and went to serve tea. All this seemed ordinary, but no one noticed that the corners of Xiao Luzi's mouth twitched inadvertently, and he didn't know what it meant.
At this time, Xu De had just returned home, and when he got out of the carriage, the housekeeper Xu Chang greeted him flatteringly, handed Xu De a towel, Xu De took the towel, wiped the sweat off his face, walked inside, and asked, "Are the people from the Tai Hospital here?" ”
"Back to the prince, Imperial Doctor Zhang from the Tai Hospital has arrived, then Guo Yi told me that Imperial Doctor Zhang was invited by you to treat the princess, and I put him in the front hall to drink tea."
"Hmm." Xu De nodded: "I'll go to change my clothes to see the princess first, and then I'll pass on the imperial doctor later." Remember to bring someone an ice check, this thief is very poisonous. Xu Chang agreed and hurried to make arrangements, while Xu De walked directly to the back of the palace.
When Xu De changed out of his court clothes and put on a regular dress, he suddenly felt a lot more refreshed, and asked the maid beside him, "When did the princess get up today." ”
"Back to the prince, not long after the prince went to court, the princess got up, and she didn't want anyone to serve and freshen up, and she stayed in Chiba Xuan to watch the show."
"I've got something to eat in the morning."
"Sister Jingzhi brought some preserved fruits and bird's nest porridge, and the princess ate a little bit and then stopped eating."
Xu De nodded, and when he reached the door of Chiba Xuan, he let the two maids wait, and pushed the door into Chiba Xuan.
Xu Liuli was also here, sitting next to the princess watching the play, and when she saw Xu De coming in, she smiled and shouted Daddy. Xu De nodded and said, "I came to bother your mother again in the morning, I know all day long that I have watched the show, and I have reached the age of getting married, and I don't know how to practice female celebrity." ”
Xu Liuli was speechless, in the past two years, the people who went to the palace to ask Xu De for marriage have broken the threshold of the palace, and a few days ago, even the housekeeper of the royal family quietly came to the door.
However, the princess wanted Liuli to find a Ruyi Langjun she liked, so she pushed these marriages one by one. Xu Liuli saw that it would be double ten after the New Year, and the women who were not married in the double ten were a minority in the Han Dynasty. At this moment, when Xu De mentioned this, his face turned red: "My mother hasn't been watching the drama all day long, why doesn't my father talk about my mother." ”
"Can you compare with your mother? Your mother's children are almost twenty. ”
"I went to supervise You'er's study, and my father, mother, and daughter retired." Xu Liuli finally couldn't resist it and retreated.
Looking at Liuli's hurried steps, the princess spoke: "Why are you going to tease her, the girl is thin-skinned." ”
"Don't care about her, but your body is better."
"It's still like that, I don't have the strength to do it, I read the excerpt of the play this morning, and I almost dozed off with Liuli."
Xu De secretly speculated in his heart about Guo Yi's incomprehensible dream interpretation, looked at no one in the room, and asked thoughtlessly: "Are you normal this month?" ”
"Why is the prince asking this?" The princess's face turned red, and she looked a little similar to Liuli.
"I called the imperial doctor, and you will have to answer him later."
"I'm just a little tired in the summer, why don't you call the imperial doctor to the house, don't you think your reputation is bad enough?" The princess was a little amused and a little moved.
"The person is already in the front hall, let him call the pulse, otherwise not only you, but I won't be able to sleep well at night."
The princess looked into Xu De's eyes and smiled: "Then I'll listen to you." ”
Immediately, several maids came into the house to freshen up and change clothes for the princess, and even drove Xu De out of Chiba Xuan.
Xu De waited outside the door for about a stick of incense, and finally felt a little impatient and asked, "Isn't it okay?" ”
"Wait, the princess still wants to draw her eyebrows." Jing Zhi's voice was still so calm, ignoring the trace of anger in Xu De's voice.
"It's just a pulse, and you don't go out, why do you need to draw your eyebrows." Xu De frowned, paced outside Qianye Xuan, and after a cup of tea, the door finally opened, although the princess was still in regular clothes, but this aqua green dress looked more energetic than the goose yellow dress just now, and people didn't seem to be so tired.
"Let's go." The princess walked up to Xu De and spoke to Xu De.
Xu De looked at her delicate eyebrows, and the trace of fire brought by the weather melted in her smoke waves, and it was completely extinguished.
"Let's go directly to Biyuan," Xu De glanced at Jing Zhi, who was following the princess, and said, "Jing Zhi, you go to the front hall and bring Imperial Doctor Zhang over." ”
"Yes." Jingzhi went to the front hall, and Xu De took the princess back to Biyuan directly, this Biyuan is where Xu De and the princess usually live, and behind Biyuan is Hou Yue Pavilion and Luoxing Pavilion, where Xu You and Xu Liuli live.
Xu De and the princess had just sat down in the tea room of Biyuan, and Jing Zhi brought Imperial Doctor Zhang over, who was a thin little old man who looked probably in his seventies.
When Imperial Physician Zhang saw Xu De and the princess, he bowed his head and bowed: "Imperial Doctor Zhang Sipeng of the Imperial Physician of the Chentai Hospital visited the princess and princess." ”
"Get up, Imperial Doctor Zhang, please sit down."
"Thank you, Lord Wang." After the imperial physician thanked Xu De, he sat down opposite the princess and said, "Steward Xu said to the old man that the princess was sick?" ”
"Yes, it's troublesome to Doctor Zhang."
The imperial physician Zhang was also nimble in his hands and feet, and took out a pulse pillow from the medicine box he carried with him and put it on the tea table, and the princess put her snow-white arm on it.
Imperial Physician Zhang put his hand on the princess's wrist, squinted to feel the pulse, and asked, "How is the princess's body doing lately?" ”
"It's strange, it's just that the old man is sleepy and has no appetite." Before the princess could speak, Xu De rushed to the front to answer.
"Has the princess been eating lightly lately?"
"The princess has been drinking porridge lately, and the greasy stuff hasn't been stained at all." It was Jingzhi who answered this.
Imperial Physician Zhang nodded when he heard this, closed his eyes and stopped talking, but the hand surrounded by green tendons was still firmly on the princess's wrist.
Just when Xu De thought that this old man was asleep, Imperial Doctor Zhang opened his eyes and said, "Princess, the menstrual period has been normal recently. ”
"It's been a few days late." The princess's face turned red quietly when she said this.
"That's it," Imperial Physician Zhang picked up the thin hand, signaled that the princess was over, and got up to salute Xu De, "Lord, according to the old man's opinion, the princess is happy." ”
The whole tea room suddenly fell silent, the needle drop could be heard, the princess was incredible, and Xu De's face was flushed, and his beard trembled slightly.
"Happy?" The teapot in Jing Zhi's hand shook lightly with her hand, and she was the first to ask Imperial Doctor Zhang.
"It should be happy, but the fetus in the womb is still small, and the pulse is not stable, so the old man just confirmed it for a while."
"I've had a postponement of my period before, could it be wrong?" The princess stood up and looked at Xu De, she had given birth to two children, and she should have reacted to these changes in her body earlier.
"If the princess doesn't believe it, after seven days, the old man can come to the door again to call the princess for the pulse, and at that time, the pulse should also be stable." The Imperial Physician had already stood up and packed up the medicine box.
"Then it's going to trouble Doctor Zhang." Xu De was in a good mood and wanted to send Imperial Doctor Zhang out.
"The prince stops, and the old man can remember the way. Seven days later, the old man came to the door again to call for the princess. With that, he turned around and exited the tea room, and retreated back the way he came.
"Jingzhi, go and send Imperial Doctor Zhang and seal a big red envelope." Only then did Xu De remember that he forgot to seal a red envelope for Imperial Doctor Zhang.
Jingzhi listened and chased after the front hall.
Xu De turned around and held the princess's hand tightly, and the princess could even feel Xu De's hand, which was trembling slightly with the big hands that had taken the heads of many people.
"Ma'am, come, sit down." Xu De's unsmiling face was flooded with a smile.
"Maybe it's a misdiagnosis, don't be too happy." Although she said this, the princess still let Xu De take her and sit down.
"I didn't expect that I would be able to have more heirs when I was old." Xu De clearly did not answer the question.
The princess saw Xu De's rare smirk, and also smiled, and said, "The prince is not old, and there are not a few white hairs." Although Xu De is fifty and nine, there are few white hairs on his head, and his body has always been good except for the cough in winter, and some people even laugh at Xu De for being a male appearance of Aconite.
At this time, Xu Chang, who heard about this in the front hall, hurriedly ran over and congratulated Xu De. Xu De said with a smile: "You are clever, everyone in the house will receive double money and three new clothes this year, and I will be happy for my child." ”
"Thank you, Lord Wang." The subordinates in the tea room knelt down and kowtowed after listening to Xu De's words.
"What if Imperial Doctor Zhang misdiagnosed it next time." The princess looked at Xu De with a smile.
And the king cut off his head." Xu De said that he would take people's lives, but the smile on his face did not restrain at all.
The princess looked at Xu De's smiling face, as if she saw herself getting off the carriage in front of the gate of Xi'an, and when she saw him for the first time, the smile on his face was the end of the great cause.
In just one afternoon, the news of the princess's pregnancy spread all over the Qin Palace, and in the evening, it spread throughout the entire Tianjing City.
At night, the painting boats on the Tianjing River passing through the city from north to south continued, and the sound of the piano was heard far away, wrapping the sweet dreams of the night vigil soldiers on the city wall, and the faint song did not know whose heart door it knocked. Such a prosperous and beautiful scene is intoxicating, but they don't know that this big man is like the Jing River that day, seemingly calm, with an undercurrent surging, in the hot summer wind, disguised as a thriving faction.
