When the emperor heard Yunchi's reply, Huayan was able to participate in the palace banquet, and was very happy, so he decreed that all officials and their families above the fifth rank in the imperial court could enter the palace to attend the banquet.
The Queen Mother was also very happy to hear that Huayan could enter the palace. Since she visited Huayan in the East Palace last time, she hadn't seen Huayan again. Ask about the flowers.
The three brothers above Yunchi are all married long ago and have children under their knees, but whether it is the emperor or the queen mother, what they hope most is that Yunchi has a son under their knees. In their hearts, that is what they really want. Sun is the heir to the future of Southern Chu.
Therefore, after Huayan got married, it was reported that she was pregnant. Huayan was not infertile, but she was really fertile, which made them energetic every day.
Many courtiers and family members have never seen the Crown Princess. It stands to reason that after His Royal Highness gets married and the East Palace has a mistress, they will go back and forth with the residences of the various ministers. However, the Crown Princess soon announced that she is pregnant. The pulse, and then severe morning sickness, apart from the emperor and queen mother, he only went to Jingguo's mansion, including the people in Mei's mansion, but he didn't see his beauty.
Therefore, everyone took this opportunity to meet the crown princess who had been raising her baby behind closed doors in the East Palace since the wedding.
On New Year's Eve, there was snow again in the sky. When I got up early in the morning, it was dawn and the ground was already covered with snow.
Nanny Fang led someone to hold the clothes and jewelry of the Crown Princess' formal attire, and waited for the Crown Princess to change her clothes. Changed the color of formal attire, a little more spirit and complexion.
Yun Chi stood aside and watched, frowning, "The clothes are a bit too thick, you can bear it."
Huayan moved her body and said with a smile, "I can bear it, how warm I am wearing, the huge palace is not so warm from the earth dragon fire, it may be a little cold, so wear more to keep out the cold."
Yun Chi smiled, "There will be a heater beside you, so it won't get cold to you."
"This is the first opportunity for me to meet people seriously after my wedding. It must be more solemn. I can't embarrass you. It's just a palace banquet. I can't help being so delicate." Hua Yan looked at him with a funny face , Picked a magnolia flower Yubu Yao from the jewelry and handed it to him, "Put it in for me."
Yun Chi glanced at her beautiful face in the formal attire of a princess. Because she was pregnant, she didn't dare to apply more makeup powder for fear of harming the fetus. She was thin and pale after tossing, but it did not damage her complexion in the slightest.
Holding the Yubuyao of magnolia flower, he looked at her tied up bun for a moment, chose a spot, and firmly inserted the Yubuyao into her hair.
He puts it in and lets go, asking, "how?"
Huayan looked at the mirror and nodded, "It's so beautiful."
Yun Chi smiled lowly, put his hands on her shoulders, and encircled her from back to front, "Yubuyao is beautiful, not as good-looking as the Crown Princess of this Palace."
Hua Yan looked at the faces of the two next to each other in the mirror, and said with a smile, "The Crown Princess is pretty, but not as good-looking as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Yun Chi laughed, and stretched out his hand to pull her up, "Let's go, Father and Grandmother probably have stretched their necks."
Huayan took advantage of the situation and stood up, Caiqing brought the cloak, Yunchi took it, fastened the cloak for Huayan, put on the cloak herself, and left the Phoenix East Garden.
It was snowing in the sky, Yun Chi was holding an umbrella, holding Huayan's hand, and said to her in a low voice, "Go slowly, if the imperial grandma sees you taking such a big step, she might jump out of fear. .”
Huayan smiled, looking out of the umbrella, "It's estimated that the snow will fall for another two days."
Yun Chi nodded, "It's snowing a lot this year."
Huayan turned her head and asked him, "Are you busy with snow disasters in various places these days, is the imperial court enough manpower?"
These days, she suffered from severe morning sickness, and today she has the leisure to ask him about the court affairs.
"Yeah." Yun Chi nodded, "A few of the new science students stayed in Beijing, and most of the rest were sent to report their duties outside Beijing. The most important thing is to provide disaster relief and save the people, so as to ensure that the people will rarely starve to death this winter." Death, the effect is stronger than in previous years. After all, this year there has been heavy snowfall, and it has not caused a large number of victims, which is good."
Huayan nodded, "Whether it's about the affairs of the court or me, you've been tired and thin recently."
Yun Chi shook his head, "Not tired."
Huayan asked, "It's been so long and I haven't received any news from Shiliu. My eldest brother is in the southwest, but I found out how the King of Southern Xinjiang disappeared, but I have sent you a letter. My brother hasn't received any letter recently. I don't know where he is. Is there any progress?"
Yun Chi reached out and rubbed her head, "Don't worry, if you can't hold your breath, you will lose. There will always be news, and there will always be an investigation." After finishing speaking, he said to her, "You have to think less now Think about it, don’t overthink it.”
Huayan closed her mouth, grinning and muttering, "Okay, you want me to concentrate on raising the baby and not tell me anything.
Yes. "
The two got into the carriage and headed to the palace.
Although there is snow today, but because it is New Year's Eve, the streets are still draped in red and colorful, very lively, and there are endless shouts and shouts.
Huayan couldn't help stretching out her hand to lift the curtain, looked out, looked out for a while, and smiled at Yunchi, "Lin'an is much more lively than Beijing on New Year's Eve every year. There are more tricks to play than in Beijing."
"Oh" Yun Chi asked with a smile, "What kind of beauty are there?"
Huayan snapped her fingers and said, "Horse racing, boat racing, folk art competition, juggling, lion dance, etc., there are many of them."
"That's really interesting." Yun Chi said, "New Year's Eve in Beijing is no better than Lin'an. Only the Lantern Festival on Lantern Festival night will be more lively."
Huayan lowered the curtain, took his hand and said, "Wait for the Lantern Festival, come out with me to watch the lanterns, okay?"
"Okay." Yun Chi nodded with a smile. Although there were many people at the Lantern Festival, he should be more protective, so it shouldn't be a problem.
The two talked all the way to the palace.
Countless carriages had already parked at the gate of the palace, and some vehicles arrived one after another. When they saw the carriages of the Eastern Palace, they all avoided and let the prince's carriage go first.
Yun Chi's carriage directly entered the palace gate, first went to the Emperor's main hall to meet the emperor, and then went to Ninghe Palace to meet the queen mother.
In the emperor's main hall, there were several important court officials present, Zhao Zaifu, King Anyang, Marquis Wuwei, Duke Jing, etc. Xiao Lizi told the prince that the prince and the princess were coming, and the emperor quickly ordered, "Let them in quickly."
Yun Chi held Huayan's hand and entered the main hall of the emperor, and saw the emperor and several important officials in the court. Yunchi and Huayan greeted the emperor, and everyone saluted the crown prince and princess.
The emperor looked at Hua Yan, who was dressed in formal attire, she was dignified and gorgeous, the emperor kept nodding, and ordered to give her a seat.
Huayan sat down next to Yunchi, and saw that the emperor was in good spirits, wearing a brand new dragon robe, with a happy face, and Zhao Zaifu, King Anyang, Marquis Wuwei, Duke Jing and others also looked kind and happy. Wu Weihou couldn't tell that he was deeply saddened by Liu Fuxiang's death, but he also had a smile on his face.
The emperor said, "Girl Yan, you have been pregnant for nearly two months, and half a catty of flesh doesn't look like it's growing."
Hua Yan smiled, "It's grown a bit, today's clothes are heavy, it doesn't show."
The emperor obviously didn't believe it, and looked at Yunchi, "Say it."
Yun Chi nodded, "It's a little heavier than before."
"Oh, that's not going to work. I only grow a catty and two taels in two months. After ten months, how much can I grow?" The emperor frowned. Go to the East Palace”
Huayan waved her hand immediately, "Zi Zhan sent two cooks, plus the original cook from the East Palace, and my brother sent two more cooks from Lin'an. Now the cooks in the East Palace are overcrowded. The emperor should keep it for himself, not the cook. Because of my physique, the sky keeps saying that morning sickness is normal."
The emperor gave up, "You are too troublesome, just mention what you want to eat, don't wrong yourself."
Hua Yan smiled and nodded, "Father, don't worry, I won't wrong myself."
"I told you two days ago that a road station was set up to transport fruits and vegetables from the south. You started this matter. Did the queen mother say that eating more fruits and vegetables is good for the fetus? Don't take it seriously because of the busy court affairs. "The emperor looked at Yunchi again.
Yun Chi smiled and said, "What the father told me, my ministers will naturally do it. Now that the year is over, it will be opened after the year."
The emperor was satisfied, "Well, just keep this in mind." After finishing the words, he said to Huayan, "The queen mother heard that you can enter the palace today, and I will be waiting to see you early in the morning. Let's go to Ninghe Palace."
Huayan nodded and stood up.
Yun Chi also stood up, shook Huayan's hand, and left the main hall of the emperor.
After the two stepped out of the main hall of the emperor, Anyang Wang said, "Your Majesty is about to embrace a grandson, it is really gratifying."
The emperor was happy, "Yes, I'll be waiting."
Marquis Wu Wei sighed, "I really envy the emperor, my son, I was confused and did something wrong back then, but now I am really afraid that he will never marry."
The emperor smiled and said, "Marriage is all in fate. If you are gone, don't blame yourself. Take it easy. That kid Su Zizhan is smart, and he will see it sooner or later. A lifetime is very long." , how can I not marry forever"
Wu Weihou nodded, "I hope it will be as the emperor said."
Yunchi and Huayan didn't go very far, both of them had sharp eyes and ears, Huayan could hear these two words clearly after Huayan's perception became stronger, she took Yunchi's arm and said in a low voice, "That's not bad. It’s very long, and you’ll always see it.”
Yunchi let out a "hmm".
