"Raising children is fun, how can it be hard? Your Majesty is overthinking it. When the child is born, the Emperor will know how happy it is to be with the child." As soon as Qin Zhao finished speaking, she found that the child kicked her twice and seemed to be hurting her.
Echo her words.
She was surprised and happy, so she grabbed Xiao Ce's hand and put it against her belly, but the child made no move after that.
Xiao Ce reacted belatedly: "Did the child move just now?"
"Yes, the child stopped moving when the emperor came." Qin Zhao now felt that the child didn't seem to like his father Xiao Ce very much.
Xiao Ce silently shrank his hands: "The child will be born soon."
After the child is born, he will definitely like his father and be willing to interact with him.
"When the child grows up, he will be both civil and military, just like the emperor." Qin Zhao said some good words.
Although Xiao Ce didn't say anything, she knew that she cared about the fact that her child was not enthusiastic about him.
Xiao Ce nodded in agreement: "If the child is like you, he must be smart."
"Aren't you smart like the emperor?" Qin Zhao felt that Xiao Ce's tone was a bit resentful for some reason.
"It would be better to have a temperament like yours." Xiao Ce opened his lips indifferently. His temperament was too dull and it was not good to be like him.
Qin Zhao laughed dumbly: "The emperor's temperament is indeed a bit old-fashioned. If he didn't meet someone like me, who would dare to approach the emperor easily?"
When Xiao Ce heard this, he looked at Qin Zhao and met her smiling eyes.
What she said makes sense. It seems that he doesn't like to talk and is busy with state affairs all day long. If it weren't for Qin Zhao, he wouldn't want to get close to other women.
"Luckily I met you." Xiao Ce squeezed Qin Zhao's hand and sighed from the bottom of his heart.
Otherwise, he may end up alone in his life.
Qin Zhao's smile gradually faded.
She was supposed to be just a character in the extra story, and she didn't have a happy ending with Xiao Ce, but she came earlier in this life and no longer came too late like in her previous life.
It's just that she doesn't know whether she and Xiao Ce will end up like they did in the previous life.
Xiao Ce saw that Qin Zhao was suddenly silent and seemed to have something on his mind. He thought she was afraid of giving birth, so he comforted her: "When you give birth, I will be with you. Don't be afraid."
Qin Zhaoqiang cheered up and said angrily: "The Emperor is the real Dragon Emperor. How can the Emperor accompany a woman when she gives birth to a child?"
The most taboo thing for men in ancient times was to be stained with blood. As an emperor, Xiao Ce could not be an exception.
Even if Xiao Ce didn't care, no one else would let Xiao Ce get close to the delivery room.
"I am the emperor, so of course it is okay." Xiao Ce disagreed.
He knew that there were many rules for women to give birth, but in his opinion, the rules were rigid and did not have to be set in stone.
"Isn't it still a month before the birth? It's too early to talk about it." Qin Zhao didn't want to continue discussing this topic.
Otherwise she would be a little nervous now.
Seeing that Qin Zhao was unwilling to say more, Xiao Ce dropped the topic.
I wonder if Xiao Ce mentioned the matter of giving birth to a child. That night Qin Zhao could not sleep. Whenever he closed his eyes, he would think of the events before and after giving birth to a child in his previous life.
She hasn't been to her previous life for quite some time. Xiao Ce in that life must have died, right?
Because she was afraid of waking Xiao Ce, she didn't dare to move. In addition, she was nine months pregnant and had a big belly. She was very uncomfortable staying in one position.
After enduring it for a long time, she couldn't help but turn around, and Xiao Ce was awakened by her.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Xiao Ce quickly helped Qin Zhao sit up.
"Your Majesty, please go to sleep, I can't sleep." Qin Zhao smiled bitterly. She was just afraid that it would affect Xiao Ce's rest. He would have to go to court tomorrow, but she could catch up on her sleep.
"I will accompany you for a walk." Xiao Ce said, helping Qin Zhao put on his shoes.
Qin Zhao felt incredible when he saw this scene.
If it was in her previous life, she would definitely not believe that Xiao Ce would help her put on her shoes one day. Even when she was pregnant in her previous life, Xiao Ce never did such a thing.
It can only be said that people's adversities are predictable.
Xiao Ce helped Xiao Ce out of the dormitory, cautiously.
Qin Zhao smiled: "I'm not that fragile. It's just that my belly is a little bigger. Your Majesty, there is no need to be too careful."
Xiao Ce glanced at Qin Zhao's big belly and thought, what could he do if he wasn't careful?
But she is a pregnant woman, so she should obey her: "That's what you said."
Seeing how perfunctory he was, Qin Zhao knew that he didn't listen.
She walked outside and found that it was hotter outside than in the bedroom. After walking like this for a while, she felt better.
"Go back, I want to sleep." Qin Zhao was afraid of delaying Xiao Ce's sleep.
Xiao Ce carefully helped her walk back.
She didn't know whether it was because Xiao Ce's carefulness and consideration relieved her anxiety, or because the room was cooler than outside. This time she lay on the bed and fell asleep quickly.
When she woke up the next morning, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
While Bao Zhu was waiting for her to wash up, he said: "Before leaving, the emperor specifically told the slaves not to disturb the girl while she was sleeping."
"I was so asleep that I didn't know when the emperor got up." Qin Zhao yawned and spoke incoherently.
Bao Zhu murmured in a low voice: "The girl didn't sleep well last night, so she slept deeply in the morning."
At this moment, Xiao Linzi hurriedly came in and said, "Girl, Empress Chongyuan is here."
Qin Zhao raised his eyebrows lightly: "Anya?!"
What a rare visitor.
Anya seldom came to Jinyang Palace on weekdays. In addition, Anya had a high self-esteem and was extremely hypocritical. When she suddenly came to Jinyang Palace, she always felt that Anya was uneasy and well-intentioned.
"Not only is Empress Chongyuan here, but Fu Baolin is also here." Xiao Linzi added.
"Let them wait first." Qin Zhao said and went to have breakfast.
Xiao Linzi understood and left to reply.
Qin Zhao finished his breakfast slowly and then went to the main hall.
Anya had been waiting impatiently for a long time. She knew that to see Qin Zhao, she would not only have to search him, but she didn't expect that she would have to wait for half an hour to enter Jinyang Palace.
Just as she was thinking about leaving, Qin Zhao finally appeared.
She immediately put a smile on her face and stood up to greet her: "Sister, please slow down."
Qin Zhao took one look at Anya's hypocritical smile and sat down safely: "How come my sister has time to come to Jinyang Palace?"
When she was having breakfast just now, Anya said a lot of bad things about her.
Fu Baolin was quiet, and every time Anya said bad things about her, she was always giving in.
Speaking of which, although Anya's impression of her was very hypocritical, she didn't necessarily look like a scheming person. She was bad enough and vicious enough, but she wasn't necessarily very smart.
Can such a person think of the evil plan of writing an article in a book?
All this time, Qin Zhao has never taken Anya seriously. It's just because Anya's emotions are too exposed. At most, she is just a rich lady who is spoiled by everyone. Other than that, she has no special characteristics.
It's hard for Anya to achieve anything big with a temperament like hers.
"Sister is about to go to jail. I just came over to see if she needs my help." Anya looked obedient.
