Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Twins
Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Twins
Li Shen stood at the gate of the East Palace and watched the eldest grandson Wuji board the carriage, smiling slightly, he didn't expect that he would agree to his requests, twenty-five percent of the tax is not bad, except for the messy things such as costs, it is estimated that he will not make much money.
The reform of Datang's commercial taxation, Li Shen knows that it is impossible to complete it at once, and what he needs to do at present is to get all the magnates of Datang accustomed to this tax model, as long as they adapt to it, it will be much easier to promote it at that time.
First bind all the interests of the powerful together, everything can only come slowly, Li Shen knows that everything he thinks in his heart will slowly become a reality, Huaxia will always stand on the top of the earth's human beings, so that they will never be able to cross.
A miserable shout interrupted Li Shen's thoughts standing at the door, and he ran to the backyard with a frightened face.
Hou Peipei is pregnant with twins, which has nothing to do with in modern times, but in ancient times, it can be said that it is a major matter of human life, and now that there is no medical foundation, a slight carelessness is likely to cause one corpse and three lives.
"How's that, what's going on, is Pepe born?"
Su Haitang looked at Li Shen, who was sweating profusely, glanced at him, and said, "That's so fast, it's just hurting." ”
"It hurt just now, why did she hurt so much?"
"Ah~~~~"
"Woo woo~~ Li Chengqian, you damn thing, it hurts your aunt and grandmother to death......"
“…………”
“……”
"Pepe, Pepe, how's it going?" Li Shen stood anxiously outside the window and shouted loudly.
"It hurts, it hurts me to death, woo woo woo~~~"
"Ah~~~ I don't want to give birth~~"
"Pepe, Pepe~~~ What about the midwife? What about the midwife? Li Shen shouted.
"Your Highness, of course the midwife is inside." Su Haitang shouted helplessly.
The maids in the courtyard all lowered their heads, stifled laughter, and couldn't help but tremble.
Su Haitang looked at Li Shen and continued: "You better go out, looking at your appearance, the concubine is in a hurry, rest assured, Doctor Sun said, Pei Pei is fine, she will definitely be able to give birth smoothly." ”
"Your Highness, you better go out." He Yuan also said helplessly.
"Ah~~~"
Li Shen listened to the painful cries coming from inside, his brows were tightly locked, he had lost his relatives, he tried, faced with such a situation, to be honest, he really couldn't stand it, sighed in a low voice, nodded, and said, "I'll go out for a walk." ”
Out of the Prince's Mansion, Li Shen walked back and forth on the avenue at the entrance of the mansion, looking in the direction of the backyard from time to time, his nervous heart had been falling on his throat, and he couldn't go down, this kind of anxious and sad taste was the first time he tasted it.
The moon had already hung high, and the night was silent, and the entire imperial city was silent, and the sound of happy shouts broke the silence of the night, Li Shen stood at the door of the prince's mansion, and tried to enter several times but finally endured it.
In about two hours or so, two crisp sounds were transmitted, and Li Shen suddenly sighed and hurriedly ran to the backyard.
"Your Highness, the side concubine gave birth to a pair of twins."
Walking into the backyard and looking at the smiling eunuchs and palace maids, Li Shen nodded with a smile and said, "Reward." ”
"Slaves and maids, thank Your Highness for the reward."
The sound of "squeak" rang out, the door of the room was opened, and two palace maids with slightly gray hair, one of whom walked out with a child in his arms, looked at Li Shen who was standing outside the door, and hurriedly saluted, saying, "Your Highness, mother and son are safe." ”
Although the atmosphere of some scenes was a little joyful, it was still full of a touch of depression.
The crown princess has been infertile for many years, and she finally got pregnant and gave birth to a girl, and whether she can conceive in the future is still a question mark, but the side concubine gave birth to a pair of twins, which shows that these two will have nothing to do with the throne in the future, unless one of the children disappears from this world.
Li Shen stretched out his hand to take the baby among them, the orange light shone on his wrinkled little face, although he knew that the child he had just given birth to was wrinkled, but he still couldn't help but say: "This is also ugly, just like the little old man." ”
"Poof" everyone couldn't help but cover their mouths and laughed in a low voice.
Su Haitang glared at Li Shen, stretched out his hand to take the other child, and said, "Where is it ugly, it looks so cute, it will be good to grow in two days." He whispered to the child in his arms: "Little baby, my mother is right~~ Wait for two days, we will be a beautiful baby." Facing Li Shen, he said, "You are really well-behaved when you look at the two children, that is, you just cried twice." ”
"Like her mother, they are all guys who are full of food and sleep, and full of sleep and food." Li Shen said with a smile.
"Pepe is not like that." Su Haitang said, and said to the palace maids: "Go and change the side concubine Niangniang to another room, the smell of blood in this room is also a little heavier." ”
"This can't make the mother, the side concubine has just given birth, where can I see the wind." The older palace maid standing on the side hurriedly said.
Li Shen gave the toddler in his arms to the nurse beside him, and said to Su Haitang: "I'll go in and take a look." ”
"I can't do it, I can't do it." Another old lady hurriedly blocked the door and said, "This is a filthy place, how can Your Highness go in, let's wait a few days, and when the filthy air inside is dissipated, Your Highness will go in again." ”
"Your Highness." Su Haitang shouted.
"Okay, okay, go and change the side concubine Niangniang to another room, find a cloak to cover, it's okay, the smell here is too strong, she just gave birth, it's better to change the environment with better air." Li Shen said helplessly.
The rules have been handed down since ancient times, for this little thing, Li Shen is too lazy to earn with these people, on a happy day, he doesn't want to make it a little unpleasant, especially if there are a few old grandmothers on the scene, if it really goes in, it will inevitably be reprimanded in the ears of His Majesty Li Er.
"No."
"Nurse, take the two little sons down to rest." Su Haitang said, and said to Li Shen: "Your Highness, it's not too early, and after watching Pepe, you should rest early." ”
In the middle of the room, Hou Peipei changed into pajamas, and leaned sideways against the inner corner with a somewhat pale face.
Li Shen walked in, looked at the sitting on the edge of the bed and reached out to touch her, and shouted softly: "Pepe, Pepe, what's going on?" ”
looked at her who was silent, stretched out his hand to turn her over, looked at the tears on her eyes, and sighed helplessly.
