All this was something that the emperor had never dared to think about before. Even though he was the Ninth Five Supreme Being, he had suffered from severe poison before and had been suffering in pain for eight years. If it weren't for Bai Yuanze and Meng Shu, he would have It will never happen today.
And now, Meng Shu has his child.
The emperor's joyful mood cannot be expressed in words.
After everyone retreated, the emperor held Meng Shu in his arms and calmed down after a long time.
"Shu'er, we have a child of our own." The emperor kissed Meng Shu again and again on the face and said excitedly.
Compared to the emperor, Meng Shu was much calmer.
In addition to being the mother of this child, she is also a doctor, so she naturally thinks more than ordinary pregnant women, such as what to pay attention to, what to eat and what not to touch.
Although the nuns in the palace who came to take care of her and raise her baby must have understood this, she still had to be aware of it.
She is not as happy as the emperor.
Now that she has this child, she must give birth smoothly. She will never give anyone a chance to harm her and the child.
In fact, her menstrual period was only delayed for two days, which happened in the past, so Meng Shu did not think about pregnancy.
She felt a little nauseous when she woke up in the morning and thought it was due to a bad stomach. She checked her pulse at that time and found no abnormality.
All I can say is that when a doctor takes his or her own pulse, sometimes it is indeed not very accurate.
Of course, if a few more days pass, she can still get it out by herself.
Next, Meng Shu became the object of the emperor's protection.
Originally, when he appeared in front of everyone during the day, the emperor usually pretended to be weak and Meng Shu supported him, but now it was the other way around.
The emperor often couldn't help but reach out to help Meng Shu, forgetting to pretend.
……
The days flew by in September, and the Queen Mother was waiting for the news of the emperor's death, but she didn't.
She originally planned to set off back to Beijing in mid-September, but she set off in late August. When she arrived in Beijing, it happened to be the tenth day of September.
Meng Shu and the emperor had long known the news of the Queen Mother's return to the capital, and they returned to the palace from Xiyi Garden before the Queen Mother returned.
According to the rules, when the Queen Mother returned to the palace, the Emperor and Meng Shu had to greet her in person.
Not only did he have to go there in person, the emperor also had to bring all the civil and military officials to greet the queen mother.
In Fengyi Palace, Meng Shu looked at herself in the mirror and felt a little worried.
The child in her belly is almost five months old.
If she is an ordinary pregnant woman, when she gives birth to her first child, her clothes will be looser and her belly will not be too obvious even if she wears a cape. However, she has twins in her belly, and both children are healthy, so of course her belly will be much bigger. .
She looked as if she was more than six months pregnant, her belly was already swollen.
Can't even cover it!
The emperor originally came to pick up Meng Shu, but he found that she was holding gauze to wrap her belly. He was so frightened that he quickly stepped forward to stop her.
"Absolutely not, don't hurt the two children." The emperor was extremely anxious.
"It doesn't matter if you wrap it up a little bit." Meng Shu said with a smile.
"No." The emperor refused without thinking: "There can't be any luck in this matter. What should we do if we hurt two children?"
Hearing this, Meng Shu stuffed the gauze into the emperor's hand and grabbed his ears: "Isn't it all your fault? I told you before, asking you to be more restrained. It's you who pesters me every day to make nonsense. The Queen Mother is coming back, and I can’t even cover my belly. What should I do now?”
The emperor smiled: "Don't worry, I have arranged everything. If they come back today, they will throw themselves into a trap."
"This is what you said, so I won't wrap it up." Meng Shu said.
"I won't wrap it up anymore." The emperor quickly threw the white gauze aside.
He touched Meng Shu's belly with a smile on his face.
"The emperor is so happy. Aren't you afraid that the children in my belly will be twins?" Meng Shu sighed and said, "The royal family is very taboo."
If two identical sons were born, according to the royal family's previous practice, either one would drown to death, or... neither child would be eligible to inherit the throne.
After all, how could the person who wanted to inherit the throne have a brother who looked exactly like him?
Something big is going to happen.
"What are the taboos? As long as I don't taboo, who dares to say anything? I can have two children at once. This is a blessing that no one else can ask for!" The emperor held Meng Shu's hand: "It's hard work Shu'er. , especially when giving birth, I heard Master Bai Xian said that it will be very difficult. When the time comes..."
The emperor suddenly lost his voice.
He was looking forward to the birth of these two children and wanted to be a father, but he was also afraid that Meng Shu would be in danger.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I am in good health and will definitely give birth smoothly." Meng Shu is not worried. She has been walking as fast as ever since she became pregnant. She also does health-preserving boxing every day. She is in good health. She is confident that she can mother and give birth to her child. Safety.
The couple went outside while talking.
……
At the entrance of the palace, the civil and military officials of the court stood in long lines, waiting for the Queen Mother's phoenix to enter the palace.
When the emperor arrived with Meng Shu, the civil and military officials quickly knelt down and saluted. After the call was made, some brave people quietly glanced at the emperor and the empress with their peripheral vision, and then they were frightened.
Why...how did the Queen's belly become so big?
Meng Shu and the emperor had lived in Xiyi Garden for almost a month. Meng Shu did not need to see the ministers of the court. Only her close relatives and those who served around her knew about her pregnancy.
There was a huge wave in everyone's hearts. Some people's faces were particularly ugly, while others were very happy.
It is enough to tell who belongs to the emperor and who belongs to the Queen Mother and King Wei.
Not long after, someone reported that the Queen Mother's phoenix had arrived.
The emperor held Meng Shu to the spot and did not come forward to greet her.
As for those ministers?
Seeing the emperor like this, he didn't even move.
As soon as the Queen Mother got off the bus, she felt something was wrong in the atmosphere.
According to the past practice, all the civil and military officials had already knelt down to greet him. Why were they still standing still at the gate of the palace now?
The Queen Mother's face darkened, and she stepped forward quickly, supported by King Wei.
"Emperor!" The Queen Mother angrily stepped forward and asked why he didn't bring all the civil and military officials to kneel down to greet her. But before she could finish her words, her eyes suddenly fell on Meng Shu's bulging belly, and her whole body seemed to be choked. It was as if he was shocked, and his body started to tremble.
"You...your belly..." The Queen Mother pointed at Meng Shu, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Come here, the Queen has caused trouble in the palace, and has hidden knots in her pearls. She intends to confuse the royal bloodline and subvert the country of the Zhou Dynasty. She is not guilty. Forgive me, take this bitch to the Ai family."
At this time, the Queen Mother, although she gave the order loudly, was a little frightened in her heart.
How could Meng Shu be pregnant?
No matter whether the child belonged to the emperor or someone else, she couldn't keep it.
Anyone who wants to take away her son's throne will die.
After hearing what the Queen Mother said, Nanny Pei immediately rushed over with the nuns and maids behind her, trying to hold Meng Shu down.
