The queen is spoiling the king and madly criticizing him for spoiling her

Chapter 346 The Queen is Pregnant

Xie Ci'an rubbed Gu Jianchu's shoulders from time to time. When Doctor Lin came over, it was already a cup of tea. Doctor Lin first paid his respects to the Emperor and Empress, and then asked while taking things out, "Her Majesty, have you been feeling unwell these days?"

"There's nothing particularly uncomfortable about it. I just feel a little weak all over and very sleepy. My appetite has decreased in the past two days." Gu Jianchu naturally rested his wrists on the soft pillow beside him and let Xie Ci'an support his body.

Imperial Physician Lin placed his handkerchief on Gu Jianchu's wrist. After a moment, a smile crossed his face as he asked, "Has the Empress' period come this month?"

Gu Jianchu immediately realized the meaning of Lin Taiyi's words and shook his head repeatedly, "In the future, my menstrual blood has never been very accurate, so I didn't pay attention to it before I came."

Xie Ci'an didn't understand and could only stare at the two of them nervously, "But what's wrong with the Queen's health?"

Doctor Lin immediately withdrew his hand and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress, there is nothing wrong with your health. Your pulse is actually a symptom of early pregnancy. It's just that the Empress's early pregnancy is unstable, which is why she feels tired, sleepy, has no appetite, and even her pulse is a little unstable. Your Majesty, please don't worry too much during this period. You need to take good care of yourself."

"Women who have just become pregnant are also most likely to have miscarriages. Your Majesty, please be careful not to have strong emotional fluctuations during this period and get plenty of rest."

"I will prescribe a medicine for the Empress to maintain her pregnancy. Please drink it first. When it comes to the later stages, I will adjust it according to your physical condition."

After Doctor Lin finished speaking, neither of them could recover from the shocking news.

Xie Ci'an, who was always decisive and ruthless, was like a child at this moment. He looked at Doctor Lin in disbelief and asked again, "What did you just say?"

Doctor Lin said again, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, the Empress is pregnant."

Gu Jianchu touched her belly with a bewildered look on her face. She didn't expect to get pregnant so quickly and so easily. Everyone was looking forward to this child, from inside the palace to outside the palace, from her father and mother to the ministers of the previous dynasty.

Xie Ci'an suddenly held Gu Jianchu's hand and said excitedly, "Achu, you are pregnant. We finally have a child."

After hearing Xie Ci'an's words, Gu Jianchu finally came down from the light clouds. She looked at Xie Ci'an's smiling face and nodded affirmatively. However, it was the first time she saw Xie Ci'an smile so happily. After all, as an emperor, she was used to seeing his serious look on weekdays.

Cheng Songyun and Zhuxia Zhuxi, who were serving in the main hall, quickly stepped forward and knelt down, "Congratulations to the Emperor, and to the Empress."

"Rewards, rewards for everyone." Xie Ci'an waved his hand and gave rewards to everyone.

Cheng Song knew that the two of them might have more to say, so he left the room with the palace maid who had received the reward.

"Achu, are we really having a child? Everything doesn't seem so real." Xie Ci'an gently stroked Gu Jianchu's lower abdomen with his fingers, not daring to use any strength for fear of hurting Gu Jianchu and the baby in her belly.

In fact, being with Gu Jianchu made Xie Ci'an feel that it was not so real.

He was just the least favored among the late emperor's many children. Now, not only did he get the throne, he was also with Gu Jianchu, and they even had a child. It was like a dream.

Gu Jianchu looked at Xie Ci'an's nervous expression, took the initiative to move forward and kissed the corner of his lips, and asked softly, "Your Majesty, do you think it's real now?"

"It still doesn't seem real." Xie Ci'an shook his head, raised his fingers and gently pinched Gu Jianchu's cheek.

Now that she knew she was pregnant, Gu Jianchu naturally didn't dare to pounce on Xie Ci'an. She sat on Xie Ci'an's knees and pressed her lips against the man's soft red lips. Her clever tongue flexibly drilled into Xie Ci'an's mouth and stirred gently. Xie Ci'an immediately cooperated with Gu Jianchu and chased him.

It was not until Gu Jianchu had difficulty breathing that Xie Ci'an slowly let go of Gu Jianchu.

Gu Jianchu's face was slightly flushed, and his fingers teased the man's Adam's apple. He asked softly, "Does Your Majesty feel it's real now?"

"It's real." Xie Ci'an touched Gu Jianchu's little face, feeling reluctant to leave. However, he was afraid that if he continued like this, the lust in his body would be awakened, so he could only suppress his desire to touch Gu Jianchu.

Gu Jianchu lazily leaned in Xie Ci'an's arms, full of longing for the future life, "Your Majesty, do you hope that the baby in my belly is a boy or a girl?"

"Boys and girls are fine." Xie Ci'an rubbed Gu Jianchu's head.

"But I hope it's a boy, because a boy can reduce the pressure on the emperor from the ministers of the previous dynasty." Gu Jianchu was thinking about Xie Ci'an.

"Girls are also good. Who says only boys can inherit my kingdom? Girls can do it too and become better empresses. Ah Chu, please don't have the idea of favoring boys over girls." Xie Ci'an couldn't help but pinch Gu Jianchu's little nose.

Hearing this, Gu Jianchu suddenly felt as if he had been tricked by the man.

Without waiting for Gu Jianchu to move, Xie Ci'an quickly changed the subject and said, "Are you tired, Ah Chu? Do you want to rest for a while? Or do you want to eat something? I will ask the imperial kitchen to prepare it for you."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to be so nervous. I don't want to eat, and I'm not hungry." Compared to eating, Gu Jianchu wanted to rest more. Since she became pregnant, she didn't feel very hungry. She didn't want to eat many of the things she wanted to eat, but instead wanted to rest more.

"I want to drink the chicken soup made by my mother." Gu Jianchu looked at Xie Ci'an eagerly.

"Little greedy cat, I asked someone to bring the wife of Marquis Nanping into the palace so that she can accompany you. I don't know how to take care of you, so let's bring the eldest daughter of the Gu family into the palace as well. You are pregnant now and need someone to accompany you. Miss Gu can help you relieve your boredom." Xie Ci'an had a doting look on his face and did not refute what Gu Jianchu said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. It's just that my mother and elder sister have entered the palace. It's not convenient for me to live with them in the Chuigong Palace. It's better for me to move back to the Kunning Palace first." Gu Jianchu didn't want to move here and there, but the Chuigong Palace was indeed inconvenient. It would be fine for her to stay here, but her elder sister and mother were also here. If a minister came to discuss something with the emperor, she would have to avoid them. Those ministers would think too much when they saw it, and would inevitably be wary of their Gu family.

There is no need to create new enemies for the Gu family.

"Okay, let's go back tomorrow and ask the palace servants to clean up Kunning Hall." In addition to the inconvenience, Xie Ci'an had other considerations.

Ministers would also come to Chuigong Hall to discuss important matters on weekdays. It was fine before Gu Jianchu became pregnant, but now that she is pregnant and needs to rest well, she cannot be disturbed, so there are indeed many inconveniences.
