When Xian Sheng was full, he was a little sleepy and a little tired but he couldnât stop thinking about what Zhan Zhen said.
I really can haveâŚhave children, how is this possible?
Both of them had the same disoriented face and their brains were blank for a long time.
Until the queen came in personally and whispered: âThis Palace boiled the anti â abortion medicine, drink it quickly.â
Xian Sheng was even more in a trance. Zhan Zhen looked up, his mind buzzing: âanti â abortion⌠he is weak, will it be bad if he eats?â
He wanted to ask if it would be bad if Xian Sheng was not pregnant, but it was not easy to say. Empress Xin picked up the bowl from the tray herself, âHow could it be? anti â abortion medicine is good for the body. Come on, this palace will feed you. â
She sat over, and Xian Sheng subconsciously pulled Zhan Zhen, the latter returned to his senses and said, âIâll do it.â
âItâs okay, you continue to hold her.â She blew and gently sent it to Xian Shengâs mouth. âAfter taking the medicine, you can sleep at ease and go back tomorrow. Anyway, the road is not far, this palace will come often to see you.â
Xian Sheng could only open his mouth and drank the medicine obediently. The queen wiped the corners of his mouth and said: âGood boy1she means child here aka haizi not the gender, sleep for a while. Zhan Zhen, donât mess with her, let her have a good rest.â
Zhan Zhen nodded and said, âYes.â
He gently put Xian Sheng down but the unfamiliar environment made Xian Sheng uneasy. He asked softly: âI want to go back home.â
âItâs already four oâclock, letâs wait till dawn.â
Xian Shengâs eyelashes trembled and he turned to look at Zhan Zhen, the latter immediately understood and said, âThen letâs go back. Anyway, you finished drinking the medicine, so Iâll take you back.â
The queen had no choice, seeing Zhan Zhen bent over to support Xian Shengâs knee, she subconsciously reached out to help and reminded him: âBe careful.â
Zhan Zhen hurriedly lightened his movements and carefully picked him up, the queen found another cape to put on Xian Sheng and said, âDonât freeze.â
When they went out, Emperor Jin was also standing outside. Xian Sheng reflexively wanted to come down, but was stopped by him: âNo need to be too polite, I will send someone to see you off.â
Xian Sheng thanked him in a low voice and his heart was full of emptiness and confusion, todayâs matter is really not in his plan, and he was ready to be secretly executed.
Zhan Zhen put Xian Sheng on the carriage, and Emperor Jin said again: âYou go in and hold him.â
Zhan Zhen basically does whatever others say at this moment, nodding obediently. Just as he was about to get in, he was suddenly held back by the queen.
âDuring this time, you canât make trouble with her, you have to be careful.â
Zhan Zhen was stunned and nodded again: âErchenâŚknows.â
Zhan Zhen got into the carriage, his foot suddenly slipped and he fell straight in. Xian Sheng was startled and heard Emperor Jin saying: âDonât hit her.â
âUnderstood.â Zhan Zhen woke up a little after the fall, answered quickly and then sat in neatly, but looking at his own squeamishness, his head became paste again.
The carriage left slowly, Emperor Jin was wide awake and said vigilantly: âLook at Zhan Zhenâs reaction, this Xian Sheng, if she is not a manâŚâ
âIâm tired.â The queen bowed and said: âI will excuse myself now.â
When they arrived at the mansion, without saying a word, Zhan Zhen took him down, went directly into the house and asked, âWould you like to take a bath?â
Xian Sheng looked at him, then nodded.
The bucket was carried in, Xian Sheng loosened his clothes with the help of Zhan Zhen, noticed that his eyes were looking down at his stomach, he couldnât help blushing and embarrassedly said: âI, I havenât changed.â
Yes, he is still him, and he did not become a woman just because he went to the altar.
Zhan Zhen put him in the water silently, staring at the water while holding the bucket, Xian Sheng raised his hand and pushed his head: âGo aside.â
Zhan Zhenâs head was pushed away, bounced back and continued to stare: âYour master, have such great skills?â
â⌠I donât knowâ Xian Sheng lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then pushed him again: âDonât look, I want to sleep.â
Zhan Zhen dutifully fished him out, wiped him and put him on the bed. Then he washed himself with the same water. They both broke out in a lot of cold sweat today, although the wind was gone, it was still not very comfortable.
Xian Sheng was indeed at a loss, but because they could temporarily avoid the crisis, he still fell asleep quickly.
Zhan Zhen was lying on the side, looking at his sleeping face. He didnât know what to think and suddenly he got into the quilt.
Xian Sheng was so uncomfortable that he kicked him unconsciously. Quietly, Zhan Zhen came out again. He supported Xian Sheng and watched him frown.
It really hasnât changed.
If you want to ask what Zhan Zhen is most familiar with, apart from the art of war and weapons, it is definitely Xian Shengâs body.
How could Xian Sheng get pregnant?
The sky was getting brighter and Xian Sheng was still sleeping very deeply. In the capital, the matters about him exploded into the streets overnight.
From the top officials and nobles to the small beggars on the roadside, everyone knew that the princess was pregnant.
Itâs not uncommon for the princess to be pregnant but the problem is, someone said that he was a man disguised as a woman just yesterday, but she became pregnant that night.
Some people say that Qing Rong deliberately splashed dirty water at the praying for blessings ceremony yesterday. Thanks to this childâs timely arrival, he saved his motherâs life.
Some people also say that if the crown princess is a woman, a direct medical examination can save her life, so why make a fuss about it?
Some people think that this child is just to wash away the grievances suffered by the crown princess, it is a trick directed and performed by the royal family, and it is specially designed to cover up the scandal.
But even so, it doesnât make sense because yesterday was so chaotic, almost all the doctors in the alleys of the city were called over and His Majestyâs attitude didnât seem fake. It seemed that he didnât believe that the Crown Princess had a happy pulse.
âNo one suggested that the happy pulse is fake?â
âHow could it be possible, who would dare! Not to mention that people all follow the crowd, so many people say it is a happy pulse and even if some people think itâs not, they will follow suit and say yes, whatâs more, that happy pulse is real! At that time saying it was false is a crime of deceiving the king! Harming the emperorâs eldest grandson will implicate nine generations of their families.â
Some people remembered the rumors that had been circulating during this period of time and everyone sighed with emotion.
âThis is really extraordinary! If this Crown Princess is a man and is pregnant, that is the arrival of the real son of God!!â
âNever mind if she is male or female, there was such a big scene at the blessing ceremony, this child is obviously not an ordinary person!â
âDo you also believe this? I think that the crown princess is really a man and this is just a means for the royal family to save face. Wait and see, maybe after a while, the royal family will secretly execute him and then claim to the public that the crown princess die of miscarriage.â
This man did not speak for long before he was caught by Zhan Zhenâs men.
But Zhan Zhen didnât care about it at the moment. He thought about it all night, finally he found Qi Sile: âWhat did you do with Ling Qiu? I really underestimated you before.â
Qi Sile didnât sleep much last night. Of course he knew that Xian Sheng was not a woman, but his pulse was really true. Up until now he was looking for a case in the medical books, when he heard these words suddenly he frowned in confusion: âYou mean Master? I havenât seen him for many yearsâ
âYou donât believe that Xian Sheng is pregnant, do you?â Qi Sile said: âActually, I donât believe it either, but he does have it. Believe me, the probability of your little lady getting pregnant is larger than the doctors in the city.â
Zhan Zhen looked at him and said for a while: âI checked⌠he, he hasnât changed.â
âYes, I checkedâŚhe is still a man.â
Qi Sile was silent for a moment and said seriously: âIt is a bit shocking, although his pulse is indistinguishable2Normally males and females can be distinguished from their pulse. Here Qi Sile means that he canât tell if XS is male or female from his pulse and he is a little weak, his skeleton is much thinner compared to ordinary men. Zhan Zhen, donât be ignorant, take good care of him during this time, he really has your child in his stomach.â
Zhan Zhen was silent again, while Qi Sile continued to flip through the book, and then heard him say, âItâs really not you and Lingqiu?â
âNoâ Qi Sile said: âI went to medicine during this period and have not been in the capital. Even if the rumors really came from the master, I did not have time to meet with him.â
âIf you really donât believe me, Iâll give you this. This page talks about the happy pulse, you go to feel it on Xian Shengâ Qi sile stuffed the book into his hand and pushed the man out. Zhan Zhen said awkwardly, âWhat if I canât feel it?â
âThat meansâŚâ Qi Sile thought for a moment: âYou are not suitable to study medicine.â
âZhan Zhen.â Qi Sileâs face suddenly turned serious: âIt is not my time that you are wasting now, but the time to save Xian Sheng. I must find out how Xian Sheng will give birth to this child, otherwise on that day, I may have to cut open the abdomen and take the child. Once the stomach is cut and sewed, he will have a slim chance of surviving.â
He thought about the appearance of Xian Shengâs belly being ripped open and he was covered in cold sweat. He quickly saluted and left with a very respectful attitude.
Xian Sheng slept heavily and when he woke up, he found Zhan Zhen leaning on the bed head and touching his hand, staring at a book seriously. His eyelashes trembled and narrowed his eyes slightly. His voice was hoarse and soft: âWhat are you doing?â
âNothing â Zhan Zhen hurriedly put away the book and said: âAwake? Are you hungry?â
Zhan Zhen personally lifted him up and said softly: âItâs warm today. When you are full, Iâll take you out to bask in the sun.â
âI can go by myself. âXian Sheng said: âIâm much better now. I was hungry for too long yesterday, donât worry about it.â
âGood.â Saying so, Zhan Zhen was not willing to let him go. He carried Xian Sheng to the table, cleaned Xian Sheng himself, cleaned his teeth and then served the porridge âEat two bites and then eat something else.â
âDid you go to the barracks today?â
âI told them all that I will deal with the work from home.â
âAlthough yesterday passed without danger but when the time comes and there is no movement in my stomach, the emperor will severely criticize you.â
âZhan Zhen.â Xian Sheng took his hand and said, âDonât put all your time on me. You should make your father pay attention to you so that no matter what mistakes you make; you will be irreplaceable.â
Zhan Zhen looked at him, Xian Sheng noticed that his expression was different and asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
âI just went to see Qi Sile.â
Xian Shengâs heart skipped: âWhat did he say?â
âHe said that you are really pregnant.â Zhan Zhenâs mood has been excessive, from dumbfounded to complicated, he said âHe also gave me a book and told me to feel it.â
Xian sheng reached out, Zhan Zhen got up and brought that book over. Xian Sheng looked at it and asked: âDid you feel it?â
âI may not be talented.â
âDonât talk nonsense.â
âI seem to have felt it.â
Xian Sheng looked at him for a while and spread the book to explore his pulse. Zhan Zhen hurriedly came over and took his hand: âHere, touch here, do you think it looks a bit like the book?â
âYour heartbeat is too fast, be quiet!â
âNoâŚâ Xian Shengâs usual calm tone was anxious: âHow could this be possible? Did not also look yesterday, I, I am still me ah.â
He looked up at Zhan Zhen, with tears in his eyes: âI am not a woman, I am a man.â
Xian Sheng kicked him with tears in his eyes.
Zhan Zhen slowly said, âGender, at this momentâŚdoes not apply to you.â
âYou may be⌠just like those priceless treasures in the treasure houses, no, just like rivers and mountainsâŚâ Zhan Zhen coaxed him seriously: âYou are a rare treasure in the world, a precious jewel.â
