Chapter 635 Severe punishment without mercy
After King Jing left, Zhou Xiaoyuan and Xia Yechen had already arrived at their lunch time. Xia Yechen was looking at a large table of dishes stewed in the small kitchen!
"Why are all the dishes today sour? Is it possible that this chef is new?"
In the past, Zhou Xiaoyuan preferred spicy and salty food, but today’s dish is completely different from the previous style!
The little girl next to her looked puzzled.
"We don't know what happened, but today the Crown Princess suddenly ordered a lot of dishes from the small kitchen. These dishes are all sour. We also doubt whether the Crown Princess has a physical problem..."
Zhou Xiaoyuan also frowned!
"I don't know what's going on. I always want to eat something sour these days. The apricots I ate a few days ago are very good. But you can't eat too much of that thing, for fear of spoiling your stomach, so I specially asked people to eat it. I made some extra sour food when I was cooking!”
After hearing these words, Xia Yechen seemed to have understood something in his heart!
He immediately ordered someone to call the imperial doctor over!
After diagnosing the pulse, the imperial doctor's eyes couldn't help but light up!
"Congratulations to His Highness the Crown Prince, and congratulations to the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess is already more than one month pregnant!"
As soon as these words came out, Xia Yechen and Zhou Xiaoyuan were instantly dumbfounded!
Zhou Xiaoyuan liked to eat sour food some time ago, so she ate a lot of sour food in one go, and she couldn't stop vomiting that night!
I originally thought it was because I had a bad stomach, but if I think about it carefully, isn't this just a sign of pregnancy?
That night, Xia Yechen was so happy that he couldn't help himself!
"The two of us have another child. We must be more careful this time and don't go on any business trips..."
Early the next morning, the palace already knew about Zhou Xiaoyuan's pregnancy!
When she learned that she was going to have a granddaughter or grandson, Concubine Shu was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear!
"I didn't expect that the Crown Princess's belly was so good that she was pregnant with a child again. If this pregnancy can successfully give birth to a boy, there will be no need to worry about things in the Crown Prince's house in the future. It seems that the Crown Princess is also a child. Blessed!"
After Niu Niu learned that her mother was pregnant again, she began to become cautious!
On this day, Zhou Xiaoyuan and Xia Yechen came to Concubine Shu and the emperor. Concubine Shu looked at Zhou Xiaoyuan's belly with joy on her face!
"You have to take good care of yourself. Didn't I send you some supplements a few days ago? These supplements are quite uncommon!"
After saying this, she gently touched the head of the girl next to her!
"Niuniu is going to have a little brother soon. Does Niuniu like having a little brother?"
Niu Niu was feeling annoyed. She especially wanted Zhou Xiaoyuan to give her a child to keep her company!
"I don't have anything to do at home. If my mother can really give birth to a younger brother for me, wouldn't I be able to play with my younger brother in the future?"
Hearing Niuniu's innocent words, Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't help laughing!
"You kid, why are you always thinking about fun things in your head? Your brother was born to learn skills, so he can't be playful all day long like you!"
After hearing this, the emperor next to him laughed!
"Since you are pregnant, you must be more delicate from now on. I heard that the carriage you rode in a few days ago didn't even have cushions. How can this be possible?"
The emperor called the eunuch beside him.
"Didn't the palace just make a batch of soft cushions a few days ago? Send those soft cushions to the Crown Princess's residence first!"
Zhou Xiaoyuan suddenly felt dumbfounded!
She is pregnant, and it's not a big deal. Why does it feel like everyone is paying special attention to this matter?
"It's nothing. Didn't I still ride a horse outside a few days ago? Her Royal Highness the Princess specifically asked me to ride a horse outside. Didn't nothing happen to me?"
While saying this, Zhou Xiaoyuan waved her hand in the direction of the emperor carelessly!
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this is not the first time that I am pregnant. Naturally, I will not be like those squeamish women. I know it well!"
The emperor suddenly became serious!
"Your pregnancy does not represent your own child, but represents the hope of our country. If you really have a grandson in your belly, you may inherit the throne in the future!"
Hearing the emperor's serious words, Zhou Xiaoyuan only felt a little funny!
Not to mention whether their child can inherit the throne, they don't even know whether the child in their belly is a boy or a girl, so how can they insist that it is definitely a boy?
After thinking of this, Zhou Xiaoyuan deliberately shook her head in the direction of the emperor!
"I can't tell whether the child in my belly is a boy or a girl, and I can't tell whether it is an imperial grandson?"
Just when he was about to continue saying something, he saw Zhou Xiaoyuan next to him shaking his head!
"Whether it's a boy or a girl, as long as you can give birth to this child safely, I will definitely treat them well!"
Concubine Shu especially wanted a boy, because she knew the significance of having a boy to the Prince's Palace!
It was precisely because of this that she looked specifically at Niuniu next to her!
"Niuniu, didn't you always say you wanted a younger brother or younger sister to play with you? So do you want a younger brother to play with you, or do you want a younger sister to play with you?"
After hearing this question, Niu Niu thought seriously!
She actually wants a younger sister. After all, after having a younger sister, she can do many things with her, but if she has a younger brother, there are some things that she cannot do...
Thinking of this, Niu Niu shook her head in the direction of Concubine Shu!
"I still think it's better to give me a sister. I still have a lot of very nice clothes over there. If I have a sister, I can give those clothes to my sister!"
After hearing these words, Concubine Shu felt a little unhappy, but since her son liked it, she didn't say anything further!
It didn’t take long for the news that Zhou Xiaoyuan was pregnant to spread outside!
After learning that Zhou Xiaoyuan was pregnant, Prince Jing suddenly felt very uncomfortable!
"Why are other people's wives pregnant, but I still don't have a child? Why am I so unlucky?"
He didn't like Yun Qingqing in the first place, but after hearing that Zhou Xiaoyuan was pregnant, Prince Jing felt a little angry in his heart!
He directly found Yun Qingqing angrily!
Yun Qingqing was angry because of Zhou Xiaoyuan's pregnancy, but she didn't expect that before she could say anything, Prince Jing had already come to her and scolded her!
"It's been such a long time and your belly hasn't even moved. Could it be that I married myself a hen that can't lay eggs?"
