Chapter 470 Extra: Parenting Part 1
< Baby Birth Story 1 >
Two years ago, the emperor was very happy when he learned that his third son had no children. Although he liked this son very much, the crown prince was his dearest and no one could threaten the crown prince's position.
But they have been married for four years and there is still no news. Could it be that his third daughter-in-law has some health problem?
If the Queen hadn't stopped him, the Emperor would have wanted to send an imperial physician to Dengzhou to give Shangguan Qingyue a thorough physical examination.
If you are sick, get treatment. If you can’t be cured, take a concubine as soon as possible. Having children is the top priority!
Bai Yanran, the eldest princess' daughter, who had once had her head covered in flour and eggs thrown by Shangguan Qingyue, began to make moves again.
She is already twenty-one years old this year, and because of her obsession, she has been reluctant to get married. The eldest princess has only one daughter, but she is still spoiled and has become an old maid.
In the end, this obsession that originally belonged to one person became shared by the entire family, especially the eldest princess.
Taking advantage of the beautiful spring weather, she brought her little daughter to Dengzhou again in a luxurious and exquisite carriage.
When Xuanyuan Yan heard the news, he frowned subconsciously, looked at Bai Er and asked:
"How long will it take for the mother and daughter to get here?"
He stroked his chin, wondering whether he should take his princess out for a walk before anyone else arrived. He hadn't been back to Xiangxue Village for a long time, so he could take this opportunity to go back and see his mother-in-law and grandmother.
"Master, we will arrive in one day at most. Ever since you ordered us to reduce the number of Eagle Guards, we have not been as well-informed as before."
He was the one who arranged this matter, so naturally he would not be dissatisfied because of the delay in news. It was still in time for him to set off today.
So he thought for a moment, then got up and went to the backyard.
As soon as I passed through the Moon Gate, a clever little maid came forward to report:
"Greetings, Your Majesty. The princess is tending to the flowers and plants in the back garden."
Xuanyuan Yan kept walking and asked:
"How long have you been gone, Princess? Did you take a break?"
The little maid ran after him and complained:
"My Lord, the princess has been in the garden for nearly an hour. She has not allowed the servants to help and has not rested."
After she finished her complaint and saw that the prince didn't ask any more questions, she stopped immediately, held back her laughter, and waited for a while before leaving.
Tsk, it’s a pity that she didn’t have the courage to follow and watch the fun. Everyone in the mansion knew that as long as the prince went to look for the princess, they, the servants, had to stay away.
The couple are very affectionate and don't like being disturbed when they are alone.
Shangguan Qingyue was fully armed, pruning branches in the garden. Four years was enough time for her to turn the entire garden into what she had imagined.
Over the years, Old Man Liu has sent her many newly cultivated varieties of moonflowers.
In addition, Zhu San has become more and more experienced in growing flowers and plants, and now there are no less than a hundred species of moonflowers in the garden.
Shangguan Qingyue’s favorite color is purple, followed by pink.
Although these precious flowers are not as famous as peonies and Chinese peonies, and their flowers are not as bright as those of peonies, the most rare thing about them is that they bloom almost every month.
If planted in a place where it is spring all year round, it will bloom all year round.
Creepers are planted at the base of the wall. Now that it is spring, the three walls have become a sea of flowers.
Shrubs are planted throughout the garden according to color matching. After careful pruning, they have now grown into semicircular flower balls.
The pleasant fragrance of flowers permeates the air, which is sweet but not strong. Coupled with the colorful butterflies flying around, it is truly like a paradise on earth.
The back garden here is called Qixiang Garden, and everyone who has had the pleasure of seeing it is amazed.
"People say that 'peony is the best among all flowers', but I think this precious flower is the king of flowers."
Xuanyuan Yan walked among the flowers with his hands behind his back, his eyes never leaving the green figure among the flowers. In fact, what he wanted to say more was that he loved this green the most compared to the beautiful flowers.
Shangguan Qingyue looked up when she heard the voice, and saw a silver-white figure standing tall and straight like a pine tree not far away. The surrounding flowers pale in comparison to him.
So she smiled and said:
"When you come here, the flowers I worked so hard to grow lose their color. From now on, you are not allowed to come to this Qixiang Garden."
Xuanyuan Yan raised his eyebrows and said with some dissatisfaction:
"Since winter ended, you have been spending almost every day in this garden, forgetting your husband.
Now you want to deprive me of the chance to come to you? Do you believe me, I will kidnap you and not let you come back for a month?"
"Absolutely not! Now is the time when all the flowers are in full bloom. I have to enjoy them every day. Otherwise, how can I justify my hard work for more than a month?"
The two of them bickered as they walked towards the flower-viewing pavilion nearby.
Xuanyuan Yan stood aside, watching his princess wash her hands and face, and handed her a handkerchief. He then waited for her to change her clothes and come out refreshed before continuing:
"I was serious about what I said just now. How about we go back to Xiangxue Village today? The Yuegui flowers in the courtyard over there are well taken care of, so it's the same if we go there to enjoy the flowers."
Shangguan Qingyue drank a few sips of tea to moisten her throat before asking:
"Why are you leaving so suddenly and in such a hurry? Did something happen to my mother and the others?"
Xuanyuan Yan took the person into his arms and comforted him softly:
"Nothing, don't overthink it.
Auntie brought Bai Yanran to Dengzhou and will arrive tomorrow. Last time you treated a girl as a dessert, so they must have bad intentions this time.
Auntie is arrogant and domineering, and she is our elder, so it is better for us not to meet her."
Shangguan Qingyue couldn't help but frowned. She glanced at the other person and said angrily:
"You are the one who brought this bad luck upon me, so you should solve it. I don't want to be a coward!"
When she thought about the fact that that white lotus had been coveting her husband for many years and still hadn't given up, she regretted not beating that woman to death last time!
Tsk, now that I know the other party's identity, I am restricted in everything I do.
It's no use putting a sack on the man and beating him up. After all, this is their prince's territory, and they can't be separated from the responsibility if anything goes wrong!
Xuanyuan Yan was so happy when he saw the jealous look on the face of the person in his arms that he lowered his head and captured the other's lips and kissed her passionately.
When the passion reaches its climax, he picks her up and goes straight to the inner room. He doesn't care about having sex in broad daylight, and no one can interfere with the lovemaking between him and his wife!
Unexpectedly, Shangguan Qingyue stretched out her hand and pinched the soft flesh on the man's waist, and said anxiously:
"No!"
"Qingqing, I am your husband, and you are so harsh. Why not? This is not the first time here...hiss~"
Before the man could finish his words, his other waist was twisted hard.
Seeing the person in his arms with blushing cheeks and angry eyes, he liked her so much that he lowered his head and kissed her for a long time before finally letting her go.
The two of them sat back on the couch, and he asked with some grievance:
"Why did you reject me today?"
Shangguan Qingyue hesitated for a long time before finally stammering:
"Well, I found that my period was a few days late..."
