happy match

That night, Gu Shilang, who was famous for his arrogance and toughness outside, gently coaxed his wife: "...Don't listen to Shen Changan's nonsense, you are indeed a little fatter than before, but only a little bit. You can't see it unless you look carefully. The face is also fair and clean, and the spots are not eye-catching at all. In my eyes, you are the most beautiful woman in the world."

Ye Qinglan rolled her eyes and said, "You're coaxing me again!"

Women love beauty, and Ye Qinglan is no exception.Although she didn't pay much attention to the physical changes brought about by pregnancy, it was inevitable that she cared a little bit.This trace of caring was immediately magnified several times in front of Gu Xinian.Who made Gu Xinian the "instigator", who is not to blame?

In fact, Ye Qinglan's grievance and coquettishness made Gu Xinian very useful.It can also be regarded as a little fun between husband and wife.

Gu Xinian hugged, hugged and kissed for a long time, and finally Ye Qinglan smiled.I am also in the mood to discuss the day's affairs: "This is the first time I see General Shen. He is similar to what I imagined, but he is a little different."

Gu Xinian obviously felt quite the same: "I never thought that with Shen Changan's appearance, there would be such a father."

Ye Qinglan let out a chuckle: "Hey, you have too much prejudice against others! Shen Chang'an does make mistakes sometimes, but most of the time it's pretty good. There are not so many twists and turns, and you speak directly. It's not a shortcoming. I think this kind of personality is pretty good. It's much better than those who are deep-minded and full of bad things."

... No matter how you hear these words, it means pointing at the monk and talking about the bald donkey.

Gu Xiqing snorted, and squinted at her: "What do you mean by that?"

Ye Qinglan blinked, with an innocent look on her face: "I'm talking about the facts. There is absolutely no insinuation. Don't blame me if you take the initiative to take the seat."

The husband and wife played a few tricks, and then returned to the topic after laughing a lot.

Ye Qinglan said with a smile: "You and General Shen communicated privately. Only Shen Chang'an and I know about it!"

Gu Xinian nodded his head as a matter of course: "The fewer people who know about this matter, the better, otherwise it will inevitably leak." The third prince guessed it was the same thing.But as long as you don't get any evidence, you can't disclose this matter in front of the emperor.Therefore, Gu Xinian simply concealed this matter to the end, without revealing a word in front of his parents.

Speaking of which, today is also the first time that Gu Xinian has dealt with General Shen Da face to face.There is no need to list all the criticisms and dissatisfaction he had with Shen Changan, but this did not affect his admiration and respect for General Shen in the slightest.This respect was naturally revealed in his speech.

Ye Qinglan was also a little surprised, and then laughed and teased: "I didn't expect that. You sometimes admire others." Gu Xinian made friends with many people inside and outside the court, including many important officials in the court.However, Gu Xinian has always had his eyes above the top, and he rarely admires anyone from the bottom of his heart.This point can be easily seen from Gu Xinian's tone of voice in private.Unexpectedly, General Shen was an exception.

Gu Xinian bluntly admitted: "Yes, I really admire General Shen. He may not be an excellent politician, but he is a born soldier. With him, the situation at the border can be stabilized. It can be calmed down in the fastest time. It is not an exaggeration to describe him with the words "Using soldiers like a god."

Take this battle as an example.Without General Shen's subtle grasp of the battlefield situation.No matter how clever his scheme was, it was completely useless.The third prince was not wronged at all when he lost in the game designed by the two of them.

When mentioning the third prince, Ye Qinglan couldn't help asking: "The emperor has lifted the three prince's ban, these days the third prince has started to go to court again! When he saw you, did he show any hostility?"

Gu Xinian pulled up the corners of his lips with a half-smile: "Don't underestimate the third prince. He is tough by nature and is the best at forbearance. Even if he hates me half to death in his heart, he will never show anything on his face." .Besides. Although the previous blow was heavy but not fatal, it is too late for him to keep a low profile and be honest. He will not mess with me in the short term."

General Shen returned in triumph, and the holy family was in full swing.Because of the marriage between Shen Changan and Gu Xiyu.The originally neutral General Shen was naturally included in the prince's camp.One goes up and down the other, as long as the third prince has a little brain, he will choose to avoid the edge temporarily.

It is conceivable that there will be a rare period of peace inside and outside the court...

Ye Qinglan felt a little uncomfortable after lying flat for a long time, so she slightly changed her position and lay in Gu Xinian's arms to make herself more comfortable.Gu Xinian hugged her from behind, his big hand caressing her high swollen belly naturally.

As the months get older, fetal movements become more frequent.As soon as Gu Xinian put his hand on it, his stomach moved twice.Ye Qinglan was already used to this kind of fetal movement, but Gu Xinian immediately became excited: "Look, my son is greeting me."

Ye Qinglan couldn't help laughing: "How do you know that this child must be a son, maybe a daughter!"

Regarding the issue of whether the child in the womb is male or female, the couple have discussed dozens of times, Gu Xinian immediately smiled and said: "A daughter is better, regardless of gender."

Ye Qinglan lowered her head to look at her belly, and then said expectantly: "I have such a big belly, is it possible that I am pregnant with twins, just like my sister-in-law who gave birth to two children at once?"

Most twins are genetically inherited. It is said that there is no precedent for twins in the Cui family, but there were twins in the first two generations of the Ye family.Since Cui Wan has such good luck, maybe her body has also inherited the gene of giving birth to twins in Ye's blood!

After she said this, Gu Xinian also began to seriously think about this issue.Then he frowned and said, "Girlage is inherently dangerous, and twins are even more dangerous. I hope that you will have only one child in this pregnancy, and give birth safely."

That's true.When Cui Wan gave birth that day, there were many dangers. At this time, the medical conditions and production conditions were very backward, and even the size of the fetus could only be roughly guessed by an experienced midwife-it was extremely unreliable when I thought about it.

Ye Qinglan thought for a while, and with a little regret, took back her previous expectation: "You are right, I'd better stop wishful thinking. It would be great if I could give birth to this baby safely."

However, it doesn't count whether there are one or two children in the belly.It’s fine if there’s only one, but if you’re really pregnant with twins, you can’t even think about it!

"Isn't there a midwife in the mansion? Let them take a good look at it tomorrow. If you are pregnant with two, you can make some preparations as soon as possible." Gu Xinian pondered for a moment before making a decision: "After the New Year, I will go to the palace to ask for grace, and ask the empress to appoint an imperial doctor to come to the mansion."

Ye Qinglan agrees with the previous item, but it's a bit too exaggerated to ask for a doctor!

"There is no need for the imperial physician!" Ye Qinglan subconsciously refused: "The doctor who diagnoses my pulse on weekdays is quite good, why bother to go to the palace to hire another imperial physician..."

Gu Xinian showed a meaningful smile: "This imperial doctor must invite you."

Ye Qinglan was too familiar with Gu Xinian, so familiar that as soon as she saw him showing such a look, she knew what he was planning again.Thinking of "Shen Fangfei" who was also pregnant for more than seven months, I immediately understood: "The imperial doctor you want to invite is probably the one who diagnoses Shen Qiuyu's pulse and nourishes her fetus on weekdays!"

Gu Xinian raised his eyebrows and smiled faintly: "You guessed wrong this time. I really wanted to invite a highly skilled imperial physician from the palace to live in the mansion for a period of time to ensure that you give birth safely. As for that Imperial Physician Wang, I didn't plan to touch him at all, so as not to startle the snake. To deal with Shen Qiuyu, it is not necessary to attack from the Prince's residence, but it is best to attack from outside the residence."

Of course, it was inconvenient for Gu Xinian to intervene in the affairs of the inner court of the Prince's Mansion, and even inconvenient to ask.It would be much easier to deal with that maid, Yun'er.In fact, since the day Yun'er was sent out of the mansion by Qiu's mother, there have been secret guards who have been secretly watching her every move, and any troubles can't be hidden from Gu Xinian's eyes and ears.

Calculating intentionally and unintentionally, this net has been cast for more than half a year, and it will be closed in about two months...

Ye Qinglan still trusted Gu Xinian's ability to set up schemes against others. It was rare that she didn't get to the bottom of it. She just warned with concern: "You have to keep this matter secret, and don't let the prince give birth to you. suspicion."

Gu Xinian smiled silently: "Don't worry! I've always been cautious in doing things, and I won't show my feet."

Ye Qinglan hummed, feeling drowsy gradually, and unconsciously closed her eyes.

"You are inconvenient. I will send this year's annual ceremony back alone, so you can raise your baby in the mansion with peace of mind. By the way, I remember that your second sister was pregnant more than a month earlier than you, so it's okay now." It's about to give birth..." Gu Xinian talked to himself for a long time, but he didn't get any response. He looked down and saw Ye Qinglan sleeping soundly with her eyes closed.

Gu Xinian laughed dumbfounded, lowered his head and kissed her face, then lay down carefully, and soon fell asleep together.

In the early morning of the next day, Gu Xinian didn't want to wake Ye Qinglan up, and got up lightly.Then I made a special trip to Jingxin Garden, and talked to Mrs. Zheng about my worries: "... Lan'er has been pregnant for more than seven months, but her belly is really not small. Maybe it's like Cui's back then, pregnant It's not necessarily twins."

Mrs. Zheng's eyes lit up: "If this is the case, of course it would be great. It would be best to have a pair of white, fat and lovely sons like Mrs. Cui!" (To be continued...)
