When the two came to Ninghe Palace, Nanny Zhou was already waiting at the door. Seeing the two, she quickly said that the Queen Mother had been waiting for a long time, and she was just waiting to see the Crown Princess, so there was no need to notify them, and let the two come in quickly.
Hua Yan took Yun Chi's hand and entered Ninghe Palace with a smile.
Early in the morning, the court ladies had already come to Ninghe Palace to meet the Empress Dowager, Prince Anyang's Mansion, Mrs. Jing Guogong, the young lady of Mei's Mansion, etc. Now Ninghe Palace is full of people. The wives also wear their own clothes, and everyone has a festive smile on their faces.
As Yun Chi and Hua Yan stepped into the threshold, everyone got up one after another to greet the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess.
Yun Chi glanced at the crowd, smiled and waved his hands.
Just as Huayan was about to greet the queen mother, the queen mother had already stepped down from the seat of the master, and she came up to her in two or three steps, and said lovingly, "Don't give up the ceremony, let the Ai family look at you, the Ai family is looking forward to seeing you. It's coming out of my mind."
Huayan straightened her body and stood in front of the queen mother, allowing her to look at her.
The queen mother looked at Hua Yan up and down, and nodded repeatedly, "The prince has taken good care of you, but you are still a little thinner, and you don't seem to have gained any flesh."
Huayan smiled and said, "It's a catty and two taels."
"Oh, how can I grow so long?" The queen mother held her hand, "Even if you vomit badly, you still have to eat, otherwise the fetus will not be nourished."
Huayan nodded, "Others eat three meals a day, but I eat six meals a day, so don't worry."
The queen mother smiled lovingly, "Don't talk about six meals, even eight meals, don't feel troublesome." After finishing speaking, she waved her hand to Yun Chi, "Do what you have to do, it's still early, let her stay here at Aijia Rest, Aijia will help you watch her."
Yun Chi looked at the women in the first hall, but said nothing.
Huayan tilted her head and smiled at him, "Caiqing is here, you go." In such a New Year's Eve, with his status, naturally he couldn't stay with her every step of the way. What's more, if he was here with all the women in the palace, the wives and ladies of all the prefectures would be uncomfortable. Even if they were free, she didn't want people to stare at Yunchi shyly.
Yun Chi did have something to do, seeing Huayan's eyes meant to let him go, he nodded with a smile, "Then please ask Grandmother to help grandson look after her."
The Queen Mother smiled and waved her hands, "Go, go, Aijia will definitely keep an eye on her and not let her go out to play."
Yun Chi nodded, and then instructed Cai Qing, "Take care of the Crown Princess, I will leave Yunying behind, if there is anything to tell Yunying, let him call me."
"Yes." Caiqing responded.
Yun Chi turned around and left the Ninghe Palace.
As soon as he left, Princess Anyang smiled and said, "Looking at how nervous the Crown Prince is, I regret that I married someone who didn't know what to do."
Princess Anyang has always been used to being tough, and she doesn't hesitate to speak. She is famous for being powerful, and no one dares to provoke her. King Anyang is romantic and sentimental, and she has been chilled for half her life.
Mrs. Jing Guogong took the words and said with a smile, "My Duke Guo only knows about those swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, and he doesn't understand anything. He is naturally far behind His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Everyone laughed when they heard the words, and they all said that their own family was incomparable, saying that the crown princess was so lucky.
Huayan smiled and listened to everyone talking and laughing. Ladies and gentlemen present here, there are both concubine and concubine, no matter if they are married, or are waiting in the boudoir, no matter if they are fathers or brothers at home, no one can compare with them. The prince is late. At the very least, it's not as good as affectionate.
It's a pity that His Royal Highness's love is only for the crown princess Huayan. It doesn't work if you are both talented, gentle, dignified, charming, fat, swallowy and thin.
In the past six months, after Yun Chi and Hua Yan had actually decided on their marriage, the daughters who were old enough to have no marriage and were waiting to be drafted into the East Palace were all discouraged, and the family started to talk about marriage.
Now everyone is looking at Hua Yan, she has a very clear and beautiful face, she is sitting beside the queen mother with a smile, she is dressed in a formal attire of a princess, making her look very dignified and upright, everyone is secretly thinking, changing any A woman, not even Zhao Qingxi, can't wear her bright and elegant demeanor.
At this time, anyone who sees her will have to admit that she is the most eye-catching pearl among the people present in Ninghe Palace, and she will be overshadowed by others.
The queen mother was even more happy, thinking to herself that her vision was not as good as Yunchi's. Now that she looked at those young and beautiful women, she felt more and more that beautiful faces were the most desirable.
His Highness the Crown Prince's vision is really good,
After everyone chatted, laughed and sat for a while, Huayan suddenly covered her mouth, stood up, and walked out the door.
The queen mother grabbed her tightly, "Do you want to vomit? It's cold outside, don't go out, hurry up, someone, bring the spittoon for the princess."
A court lady moved quickly and cleverly, and quickly brought a spittoon.
Caiqing took it immediately, supported Huayan, and said nervously, "Crown Princess, spit here."
Huayan originally didn't want to vomit in front of so many people, but she couldn't help it when she was held back by the queen mother, so she spit into the spittoon with a "wow", and then vomited again and again, which was enough There was half a cup of tea, her face turned pale from vomiting, her whole body was exhausted, and she vomited up everything she had eaten in the morning.
Everyone looked at her. Earlier, some people secretly thought that the Crown Princess was too squeamish. After the wedding, she kept thanking guests behind closed doors in the Eastern Palace. Now seeing her vomit with tears in her eyes and pale face, they immediately gave up. thought.
The morning sickness is so severe, it is indeed scary.
The Empress Dowager looked at Huayan, worried and anxious, seeing that she had finally stopped, she quickly ordered, "Quick, bring water to wash her mouth."
Nanny Zhou had already brought water and handed it to Huayan.
Huayan didn't even have the strength to connect to the water, Caiqing naturally understood, quickly took the water, and helped Huayan to rinse her mouth.
After Huayan finished rinsing her mouth, Caiqing took out a handkerchief to help Huayan wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes and the sweat from her forehead, and then she leaned weakly on the chair and said, "I made everyone laugh."
Mrs. Jing Guogong, Princess Anyang, and the young mistress of Meifu had already arrived in front of her when Hua Yan was vomiting. At this moment, when she heard her speak, Mrs. Jing Guogong said distressedly, "You vomit so badly. I feel distressed when I look at it, who is going to laugh at you again."
"That's right, why do you have such severe morning sickness? When I was pregnant with Li, I also had severe morning sickness, but not as severe as you." Princess Anyang said, "Looking at your weak appearance, you should hurry up and rest."
The Empress Dowager said immediately, "Hurry up, Nanny Zhou, help the Crown Princess to rest in the inner hall."
"It's okay, just finish vomiting." Huayan smiled and shook her head.
The queen mother made a serious face, "Be obedient, go quickly, you are uncomfortable in pregnancy, I don't need you to accompany me here."
Grandma Mei also urged, "Go quickly."
Everyone also spoke to persuade.
Hua Yan glanced at the crowd apologetically, nodded in regret, and went to the inner hall with the support of Cai Qing and Nanny Zhou.
After entering the Nuan Pavilion in the inner hall, Nanny Zhou helped Huayan to the couch, and asked her, "It's still some time before the noon palace banquet, and the maidservant ordered the imperial dining room to cook you something to eat. Just tell the maidservant what you want to eat." .”
Huayan thought for a while and said, "Let's make two light porridge and side dishes. The side dishes should be more appetizing."
Nanny Zhou should be, and went immediately.
Caiqing looked at Huayan, "Crown Princess, would you like some water?"
Huayan shook her head, "I'll lie down for a while and breathe slowly."
Caiqing nodded, stayed beside Huayan, and said in a low voice, "Closing your eyes and taking a nap, otherwise this servant is afraid that your palace banquet will be overwhelmed."
Hua Yan sighed, "This child is too much trouble."
"Your Highness must be very lively and smart." Cai Qing crisply said.
Huayan smiled and closed her eyes.
Although the imperial dining room was used to prepare the palace banquet, but hearing that the princess was suffering from severe morning sickness, she wanted to eat some porridge and side dishes, so naturally she didn't dare to delay, so she quickly put down the work in hand and hurriedly made it for Huayan first.
Half an hour later, the people from the imperial dining room brought porridge and side dishes.
Although Huayan said she wanted two kinds of porridge and side dishes, Mother Zhou was afraid that if she really made two different ones in case the princess was hungry, she ordered the imperial dining room to make several different flavors. A few, put a full table.
Huayan was stunned for a moment, then sat down at the table and tasted everything.
The emperor and the queen dowager love Yunchi very much, the cook in the East Palace is even better than that in the Imperial Palace, Hua Yan has been raised recently, and after tasting everything, she picks and chooses to eat.
The Empress Dowager was worried about her beauty, and the wives and ladies of the mansions did not stay in Ninghe Palace for long, and left Ninghe Palace one after another to stay in other places. The queen mother got away and hurried to see Huayan.
Seeing Huayan eating, she immediately asked, "Does it suit your appetite?"
"It suits your appetite." Hua Yan said with a smile, "Let the imperial grandmother worry about it."
"Where are you talking?" The queen mother sat in front of her and looked at her stomach, "Eat as much as you can. When Ai's family was pregnant with the emperor, she also suffered from morning sickness. Later, she was so sick that she couldn't eat. Unclean things came out in the palace, mourning the family’s hard work, and failing to take care of the body, which led to premature birth. The emperor’s body has been weak since birth, and he takes medicine for more than half a year.” After finishing the sentence, he added, “The prince is nervous about you. , I am also afraid that he will be the same as the Ai family back then, so please be considerate of him."
Huayan nodded, "Don't worry, grandma, he works harder than me, I know that."
The queen mother smiled lovingly, "Well, when the wife is pregnant, the husband suffers as well. You just need to understand."
