When Ananda was three months pregnant, Chu Baning developed a good habit of putting his hands or ears on her abdomen from time to time, wanting to see what the child was doing inside.
When he said to her with that extremely serious expression that he wanted to hear about the child, Ananda blew up.
"My lord, it's only been three months. He hasn't fully developed yet, so he can't move." Ananda said with a smile, "I asked the imperial doctor, and the imperial doctor said that the child will not be able to move until four months old."
It is probably because Chu Baning has never experienced this kind of thing, and has never paid attention to the matters of pregnant women in the past, so he expressed half-belief in Ananda's words, and took the trouble to hold Ananda in his arms and put his hands in his arms when he was free. She patted her belly, like a child who suddenly became very rare for a certain toy.
When Ānanda was three months pregnant, it was already June, and early summer came quietly.
Different from other pregnant women, even though Ananda is pregnant, she gives people a feeling of being extremely well-behaved. She is not disturbed by joy or fuss, and eats and sleeps soundly. I will give birth to a very well-behaved child in the future.
As soon as Ananda heard about being cute, she intuitively thought that the child must not be like her, because in her previous life, she was not cute at all when she was a child. It is enough to prove how she came from the wild when she was a child. And in this life, with her memories, she can restrain herself from being a well-behaved and docile lady who sits in the room and learns embroidery. Otherwise, she would have gone wild for a long time.
Therefore, Ananda firmly believed that this child must be like his father.
Ananda sat on a long couch covered with soft fox fur, and looked at the man reading documents at the desk with his cheeks propped up. His serious side face was resolute and delicate. Guanghua, extraordinarily delicate. The slightly pursed thin lips showed that he was a man of firm will and would not shake his will for anything.
He sat there, flipping through the documents, occasionally writing comments on them, quiet and serious, like a perfect and cold statue.
I heard that men are the most handsome when they are serious. Looking left and right, Ananda felt that it was almost the same as usual, the same serious and condensed, and also the same quiet and charming.
Chu Baning is a person who can sit still, and also a person who likes to be quiet.
Therefore, the child must have followed him.
Ananda was a little depressed.
Although she does not have the burden of having a boy or a girl, she has the burden of "if she has a daughter, what if her temper is like her father's?" She was really worried that no man would dare to marry her daughter in the future. At this time, she hoped that the child in her stomach would be more noisy and have a better temper like her.
"What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?"
Although the deep baritone was calm, she could hear the tension in his words. Ananda looked at him blankly, and saw that he had put down the documents in his hand at some point and sat beside her, hugging her in his arms.
Ever since he found out that she was pregnant, Chu Baning adopted an urgent man-marking strategy to keep her in his sight at all times. For this reason, he moved his work place from the barracks to the study at home, and sent all documents to the mansion. And there were more things in the study that shouldn't have existed, and then she was placed in it. When he was working, he didn't shy away from her being by his side, and directly dealt with some confidential documents in front of her. Sometimes he would hold her and let her sit in his arms and read the documents together. Unfortunately, she was out of her mind and read it carefully. She knew what it meant but couldn't sum it up. After reading too much, she found it boring. Finally, She always just nestled in his arms and fell asleep.
"No, the baby is very good!" Ananda reassured him, hesitated for a while, and said, "Sister Chu's family said that when she was pregnant with her first child, she suffered from severe nausea in the first three months, her appetite was poor, and she was born thin. After four months, the baby was able to move around, and I didn't stop tossing her... "
Chu Baning stroked her hair, listening to her soft voice speak slowly, the sun was shining outside, under the summer sun, crabapple flowers stretched their branches and leaves, and there were birds flying in the sky.
The years are quiet.
"My lord, isn't our child very obedient? You see, I have never been embarrassed, and I eat and sleep well. It's a circle of roughness. Tell me, if the child is so obedient, is he like you? When you were young Are you very good?" After talking a lot, Ananda finally inquired about his childhood.
Ananda, as a pregnant woman, ate and slept well, making her whole body plump. Ever since she heard Rucui accidentally say that she is thick all over, Ananda is very depressed. The slender and graceful Lin sister in her dream is getting farther and farther away from her dream...
Chu Baning thought for a while, and said to Ananda with certainty: "Well, I was really good when I was a child!" Therefore, it is right for the child to be so good!
"..."
Ananda stared at that stern and painful face, and couldn't help but feel yy, could it be that he had such a serious and paralyzed face when he was a child? This is really... so hard work! For the first time, Ananda understood that it was not easy for the Queen Mother to be a mother!
Well, Ananda is ready to listen to my mother talk about the past... Oh, wrong, it should be listening to my husband talk about the past!
Chu Baning couldn't help laughing when he saw her with bright cat eyes and expectant expression on her face. Although he didn't think there was anything to say, seeing her was interesting and she was in great spirits, so it didn't hurt to talk about it.
"Things before the age of three are a bit blurred. I always heard from the emperor's brother. He said that when I was young, I was very obedient and worry-free. I didn't need to worry about it. At that time, the emperor's brother was still living in the palace and the princes lived. Although there is a nanny to take care of me in the Chaoyang Palace, the emperor will come to teach me to read and write or play with me whenever he is free. In private, everything is arranged for me by the emperor. When I was five years old, because Concubine Li had never had a child. , I am the youngest prince in the palace, and Concubine Li begged Father to recognize me as her son. Father believed in you at that time, agreed to her request, and adopted me to Concubine Li... In order to make up for my mother, The emperor father was promoted to the position of queen mother, and I also changed the jade certificate to become the adopted son of the noble concubine. But two years later, noble concubine Li became pregnant, and I was sent back to the queen mother, and the jade certificate was changed back... "
Chu Baning's narration is simply lacklustre, and he explained the things before he was ten years old lightly, and did not complete the various dark entrapments of the court at all. Although Ananda has never experienced palace life, thanks to the TV novels in his previous life, he also knows the darkness of the palace. The princes and princesses knew about it early. And although there was nothing negative in this understatement, she always felt that something was wrong, something was ignored by him.
Ananda looked at his calm expression, stretched out his hand to touch his face, and rested his head in the socket of his neck.
"My lord, it seems that our child's temper is like yours."
"My king's children are naturally like this king." Chu Baning still said the same thing.
Ananda didn't bother to roll his eyes anymore, the prince had already determined that his child would definitely be like him, and thought it was good, he never thought about what to do if his other daughter was swollen like him, what man would dare to marry? And he also thinks that her worries are really unnecessary. If she is not pregnant now and needs to be accommodated, the prince would have said something poignant to her lungs to anger her.
The prince couldn't tell about the child's personality, and Ananda didn't want to entangle him needlessly. Let's wait for the child to be born.
"By the way, my lord, have you chosen the child's name?" Ananda became concerned about this issue.
Chu Baning's response was to take a brochure from the table and hand it to her.
Ananda glanced at him suspiciously, wondering what the prince's blushing face meant. How can anyone hold such a serious expression, but his face is as pink as if dyed with rouge? Are you shy
"My lord, your face is a little red~" Ananda relied on being a pregnant woman now, and he would not have to bear any consequences for stroking the tiger's beard from time to time, so he gave birth to fat gallbladder. She was born without such a good thing.
"It's hot." He replied very solemnly.
Ananda curled his lips, he was really not afraid of slipping his tongue when he said this. It's only June, and it's a bit hot during the day, but staying inside the house and blowing the wind blowing through the hall is very cool.
"My lord, are you shy~~" Ananda became playful, pressing every step of the way, poking his face back and forth in front of him. Although she didn't know what to be shy about choosing a name for the child, but seeing him like this, she really felt so cute and wanted to tease him a few times.
Chu Baning narrowed his eyes slightly, covered her moving head with his big hands, and bowed his head to block her with a passionate kiss.
After a while, Ananda could only lie in his arms and pant, but she could clearly feel that she was sitting on something hot and hard on her buttocks. Ananda recited the Buddha's name in his heart, fearing that he would get angry and dared not tease him again. The imperial doctor said that he couldn't have intercourse for the first three months, so he was so miserable. Moreover, he stayed by her side twelve hours a day, and he had no intention of looking for a woman. Seeing how pitiful and cute he was, Ananda almost impulsively sacrificed the Five Fingers girl to relieve him. But thinking that if there is one, there will be two, and if there is two, there will be three. For the sake of her leisurely life in the future, she should obediently be a pregnant woman.
After both of them had caught their breath, Ananda opened the booklet he handed over and stared at the lines of names in it dumbfounded. This booklet was almost full, leaving only a few blank pages. . Looking at the ink, it is estimated that he added the name he thought of when he was free.
Ananda looked dizzy. According to his personality habits and knowledge, each name written on it has its origin and meaning. The notes are written in detail below, making it easy for people to understand the meaning.
Ananda closed the booklet with a snap, and said, "My lord, do you have too many names? It's hard to choose." There is only one child, and there is only one name, and it is very troublesome to choose one from which to use.
"It's okay, pick one for the child at that time, and keep it for another use if you don't run out." Chu Baning's eyes are very far-sighted.
"..."
Ananda: =__=! Could it be that we are short-sighted? By the way, how many children does Wang Ye plan to have? ! !
Therefore, the question of who the child's temper looks like has become an unsolvable problem in Ananda's pregnancy life.
When Ananda was three months pregnant, people from the capital came again.
This time, the visitors not only brought abundant food and various supplements, but also some personnel.
Ananda looked at the line of people, excluding two middle-aged imperial physicians and a nanny, the remaining four medical ladies were all beautiful, and the six court ladies were all charming.
The only one among them smiled and said to Ananda: "Princess, the servants are here to serve you under the emperor's order. The servants will stay here until the little son is born."
This nanny, surnamed Su, was born rich and fair, and her clothes were neat and simple. She looked to be in her thirties, with a friendly smile on her round face. Although she was busy all the way, she did not give birth to any negative feelings. Depressed air, people can't help feeling good. And the meaning of her words also showed her attitude.
She was arranged by the emperor and is worthy of trust.
To be honest, although Ananda only met the emperor a few times, and each time there were a lot of people around, she couldn't stare at the emperor blatantly, but Emperor Chongde was more trustworthy than the queen mother in her heart.
There is one more thing that Ananda doesn't know, this Nanny Su is the emperor's confidant, proficient in medical science and martial arts, even the women in the palace have to respectfully call her "Madam Su" when they see her. Even when the queen was pregnant, the emperor never sent her to serve the queen.
In addition to Mother Su, the six maids who were not medical girls also revealed their origins when they came to pay their respects.
They were sent by the Queen Mother to serve King Su.
They are still maids from the Imperial Palace Bureau, and all of them are as beautiful as flowers and jade. The half-month journey seems to have caused these delicate girls to suffer a lot, and it is hard to hide the dispirited look in their beauty.
Ananda sat on the pit, protecting his stomach with his hands, and said with a friendly smile: "Since you are sent by the emperor and the queen mother to serve the prince and this palace, you can stay here with peace of mind. But the ugly words of this palace are the first , In this mansion, I have the final say, and I will expel those who have different intentions, lazy and disobedient, from the mansion at any time."
The two imperial physicians, Nanny Su, and the four medical ladies all responded respectfully. They were all selected by the emperor himself. Naturally, they knew how much the emperor valued the child in Princess Su's womb. In order to return to Beijing in the future, they would spare no effort to serve her. Good Princess Su, let her give birth to the child safely. The six women selected by the queen mother were also very respectful, but there was joy in the respect. As long as Concubine Su is easy to talk to, they will be able to climb into King Su's bed in the future, and a concubine's seat will definitely be indispensable.
After Ananda said some words of kindness and strength, he was about to let them go down to rest, when Chu Baning came back.
Everyone stood aside to greet him respectfully, only Ananda sat quietly.
Ever since she found out that she was pregnant, Chu Baning didn't let her go out to greet her when she returned home from get off work. She just had to protect the lump of meat in her belly, and she didn't have to follow those etiquette rules. Anyway, this is not the capital. , no need to show it to others.
"I have seen the prince!"
The cute voices of a group of girls made Ananda suddenly feel that he had morning sickness, and Chu Baning was not used to it, so he frowned secretly, walked to Ananda, first checked her face and stomach, I also asked about her physical condition, and saw that she was still healthy and the meat in her belly was healthy after going out for a morning, so I felt relieved.
Chu Baning sat beside Ananda, ignoring the group of people kneeling below, listening to Ananda's sweet and soft voice to report the identities of these people to him.
While talking, Ananda hid the truth from those kneeling before him, thinking that the imperial physician and Mother Su had suffered innocent disasters and knelt in vain.
After listening to Ananda's words, Chu Baning said calmly: "Su Nanny and the two imperial doctors and female doctors are going to rest."
The seven people got permission, they respectfully responded, and followed the leading maid in the mansion to leave the door.
The rest of the girls looked at the man on the seat eagerly, and silently looked at him with big soft eyes. Of course, there are also smart and obedient ones, kneeling there with their heads down, so that people can't see their expressions clearly.
"After you go back and report to your mother, there are enough people serving in the palace." Chu Baning said coldly.
"My lord..."
"Still backing down?!" Chu Baning impatiently interrupted what they wanted to say, and a pair of deep black eyes swept over, making all the girls silent.
Even if they were unwilling, the women could only go out, and from the glances they secretly looked back, it was clear that they were not unwilling to come here. What disappointed them was that the man sitting on the pit had already cast his eyes on the girl beside him. Although his expression was very serious, his handsome face and majestic demeanor could still easily teach people to secretly agree. .
Ever since they knew that Concubine Su was not only living a very nourishing life, but also pregnant, many people's minds became active, and they thought that King Su's fate of "killing his wife and never having a son" had been broken. Such a young and handsome prince, who holds a lot of power, has won the emperor's favor, and has a bright future. Which woman doesn't like it
So, everyone made up their minds.
However, their ideas are good, but they seem to have forgotten that they are not a good host. He has the right to decide whether he wants it or not, and he can make them, women from the palace bureau, fall into the dust with a single sentence.
Thinking that they had worked so hard in the carriage for more than half a month, and now they have to go back in the carriage for more than half a month, a distorted look like constipation appeared on the faces of several women.
After driving people away, Chu Baning's expression was still not very good, and he directly ordered the two maids waiting at the side, "Have someone sweep the floor carefully."
Ru Cui Ru Lan suppressed a smile, and said yes respectfully. Now, they all know the prince's obsession with cleanliness, and the prince doesn't seem to want to hide his appearance, so the maids are very calm.
After Chu Baning gave the order, he got up and carried Ananda, who was also holding back his smile, back to his room, as if he didn't want to stay in a place where "garbage" had been.
Ananda laughed in her prince's arms and almost rolled. This behavior of not giving the queen mother any face really made her speechless and funny. The person sent by the emperor stayed, and the person sent by the empress dowager sent back directly. The empress dowager in Beijing didn't know how to get angry.
Originally, she was still thinking that after the news of her pregnancy came back to Beijing, those people would definitely think that King Su's fate had changed, and then the mansion would be full of excitement. It's a pity that her prince is a clean freak, even these people staying here is unbearable for him, let alone getting close to him? He must not let him directly order someone to kill him.
Well, she knows that she doesn't have to worry about anything, so she can take good care of her baby.
