Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, another three days have passed.
Early summer in Shengjing has turned into midsummer. The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the clothes on our bodies are getting thinner and thinner.
The young man in bright yellow clothes leaned lazily on the bed, looked at the blooming lotus on the table, and sighed again.
He turned to Changle and said, "The weather is getting hotter and hotter. It's time to prepare to go to the villa to escape the heat."
Now his belly is four months old. In the first three months, he didn't feel anything, just a little more fat. But in the past few days, he could clearly feel that his belly was starting to grow, which made him tremble with fear.
Senior Huang said that the baby is still relatively young at this time, but by the second half of the fourth month, it may change every day.
After hearing this, Duan Changchuan felt even more uneasy.
I just wanted to live in the farm as soon as possible, preferably until the weather in Shengjing turns cooler and I start wearing winter clothes.
"I checked a few days ago and found that the preparations for going to the villa have been almost completed. If Your Majesty wants to go now, you can."
Changle noticed that his brows were still furrowed, so she tried to comfort him gently.
The young man shook his head: "Wait a little longer, wait for Elder Sun to send a message... at least we can see some good results."
The people were suffering in the epidemic area, and Doctor Sun, at such an old age, was also in danger, racing against time to save lives.
As the monarch of this country, he went to the manor to escape the summer heat? How is that different from a tyrant monarch
Changle came over with a fan, knelt down beside him, and shook it, saying, "Your Majesty, please be at ease. When Eleven and Eighth came back from Huainan, they also said that Doctor Sun and his team were in good control and nothing would go wrong."
The boy nodded: "Hmm..."
Then he blinked and looked out the window again.
There, there were still a few peonies that they had moved from Qinglu Palace last time.
Yi Man was a sensible person. He had specially planted the two peonies outside the study, facing the window, so that whenever Duan Changchuan got tired of reading or reviewing memorials, he could see them as soon as he looked up.
It’s just… now it’s June, midsummer, and these peonies, which can be called the “miracle of Qinglu Palace”, tried hard to bloom for a few days, but finally they couldn’t resist the long-overdue flowering period and withered one after another.
On the flower branches, you can still see the half-drooping receptacle.
"Your Majesty, do you miss the Empress? Xiao Ba and his men have been delivering letters to Huainan for five days. They will surely be able to send back news today or tomorrow."
Changle's voice rang in my ears.
Duan Changchuan then stopped looking out the window and replied quietly, "Hmm..."
Missing her... and worried about her.
…
-
Bai Su's reply arrived that evening.
Eleven and Eight were so exhausted from the journey that their faces were still covered in dirt when they arrived outside the Ming Sheng Temple. The two secret guards ran as fast as they could for hundreds of miles, and in the past three days, they had not even taken a bath or untied their belts.
When Duan Changchuan opened the door, he smelled a strong odor and his stomach immediately turned fumes... He was pregnant.
"Wait a minute... Ugh... You guys go back... Ahem... I've been vomiting... vomiting a lot these past few days."
The two secret guards realized what was happening later and quickly retreated.
But they did not dare to delay for a moment and quickly presented the letter that Bai Su asked them to bring to the young man.
"Your Majesty, this is the letter from the Queen!" Eleven knelt on one knee, holding the paper tube in both hands and presented it to him: "I have followed the Queen's order and fumigated the Atractylodes and mugwort. My subordinate and Myna have also fumigated before coming here! The Queen is fine. She said she caught a cold during the two days of rain. When I went there, the Queen was almost well. I specifically told you not to worry!"
Duan Changchuan immediately signaled Changle to take the letter. His expression visibly relaxed, with joy visible between his brows.
until…
After opening the letter, only a small piece of paper fell out of the paper tube.
It said: I heard that a certain Omega sent someone to monitor me. Nothing happened this time. You should reflect on yourself.
The smile froze on his face immediately.
Then, Xiao Ba looked at his young Majesty, who crumpled the paper into a ball, threw it back into the paper tube angrily, snorted barely perceptiblely, and went back to the house carrying the paper tube.
The door was slammed shut with a loud bang, and it was obvious that he was angry.
Xiao Ba: …
So... Your Majesty, did you cry or not
When did he cry...
When should I give you this letter that I have hidden
A little confused.
-
Duan Changchuan was indeed angry, and very angry.
He really waited for a long time before finally receiving a letter. Two secret guards came over at full speed, but in the end they only received this small punitive note.
[Although I have made some mistakes...how can she punish me in this way?]
[Knowing that I miss her very much...]
The young man sat on the couch, feeling more and more sad the more he thought about it. However, he also felt that it was embarrassing to cry over such a small matter, so he tried his best to hold it back, and soon his eyes and nose turned red.
The whole person feels aggrieved.
[How could she be so bad?]
…
-
Just as he was secretly feeling sad, there was a knock on the door from outside, and Changle called him through the door: "Your Majesty, may I come in?"
Duan Changchuan thought he had something to report, so he sniffed and blinked back the moisture in his eyes, trying to maintain a normal voice and said, "Come in."
A young eunuch dressed in a python costume walked in hurriedly.
As soon as Changle came up, he presented an almost identical paper tube in front of him: "Xiao Ba, this...! He just secretly stuffed another letter tube into my hand, saying that the letter brought by Eleven was a bluff from the Queen. In fact, he kept another letter and specifically told me that I must take this letter out before you cry! He just asked me, 'Ah, Eunuch Le, you know your Majesty so well, when do you think your Majesty will cry? When should I take out this letter? Ugh! Now that I know this letter, can I join them in bullying your Majesty? I will just snatch the letter from your Majesty!"
After saying that, she proudly placed the letter directly in front of Duan Changchuan: "Your Majesty, please open it and take a look. This is the real letter that the Queen wrote to you."
The young man was a little surprised when he heard it.
I realized later that I had been fooled.
[What do you mean, take out the letter before I cry! Even if I cry, I will never cry in front of Xiaoba and Shiyi! ]
[No, how could I cry? ]
So, the young man, who was so angry that his eyes turned red just now, exhaled a small breath of air from between his nose and said confidently: "How could I cry because of a letter?"
It seemed as if the person who was about to cry out of grievance just now was not him at all.
Changle bowed and said, "Your Majesty, how could you cry because of a letter? No, I have to go and have a good talk with Xiao Ba. I am so angry! Your Majesty, please read the letter first. I will be back soon. Call me if you need anything!"
After saying that, he ran out without looking back.
-
After the door closed with a click, the young man sitting on the couch moved slightly.
His eyes fell on the exquisite and beautiful letter barrel and he raised his hand to reach out.
When he was about to touch it, he shrank back as if he had been electrocuted.
"Why should I read her letter when she teases me like this? What's so special about it? I won't read it."
Duan Changchuan whispered to himself.
However, it only lasted for a few seconds before those eyes couldn't help but glance towards the mailbox again.
I don't know what she wrote in the letter...
Is there a pheromone handkerchief...? I wonder if she has the handkerchief I put in the mailbox before... Well, is it useful...
Will there be... that letter
In the end, despite his resentment, he finally succumbed to his desire and opened the letter.
[I need pheromones to comfort myself right now. Even if I don’t care about myself, I have to care about the baby… I will settle accounts with her when she comes back.]
Well... there is a little bit of persistence, but not much.
When I opened the letter, familiar handwriting came into my eyes.
[To my baby,
I hope you are safe.]
With just two short sentences, all the anger that had built up was gone in an instant.
The boy's ears were visibly filled with blood, but he still said awkwardly, "Who is your baby... I've never seen anyone tease a baby like this. You can't be held responsible if she gets angry and cries."
[… I have read the letter. Your Majesty has done a great job. You are worthy of being the monarch of a country. You have courage and determination. I am very proud of you. But baby, don't put yourself in danger in the future. I hope you can protect yourself first. Because just like you worry about me, I am also worried about you. Besides, there are two of you. So, no matter what happens in the future, please put yourself first, okay
I like the handkerchief my baby gave me. It smells very good and your name is embroidered on it. Having it is like having you by my side.
But Xiao Ba and Shi Yi said that you were waiting for a reply in Shengjing, and you were waiting very anxiously. I will wait until tonight before calling you. Thank you, baby.
Don't have any wild thoughts or worries. I'm doing well in Huainan and I'm working hard to go back and be with my baby as soon as possible.
I hope he is well and waiting for me to come back.
Be good, okay
kiss.
Your Alpha Protein
The boy finished reading both pages, and by the end, he felt a warm feeling in his heart.
I couldn't help but lean over and give that "kiss" a gentle kiss.
Miss her.
Thinking about it day and night.
There were two letters in the paper tube, one of which was written with tenderness...
The content of the other letter is self-explanatory.
In addition, there was a brocade bag embroidered with lotus flowers. It was bulging and quite heavy. I don’t know what was inside.
The boy curiously opened it and poured out a...
A toy of very small shape and size, jade
Duan Changchuan:
I realized it later and realized:!!!
Quickly cover it with both hands!
A face flushed red.
But the entire jade was covered, leaving only a thin piece of paper that fell lightly on the back of the hand.
It says: Warm it up with warm water first, otherwise it may be a little cold when you use it and you may not be able to adapt to it.
…
Ah... It's fine to just give him something like this, but why does it come with instructions
They just curled up into a ball in disgust.
[I don’t want to see! ]
[It's not a jade|beg for dissatisfaction. I will never use this kind of thing even if I die! ]
Besides, where did she find this kind of thing
Isn't she afraid of other people saying: The Queen is alone in the empty room, what is she doing
