Yinzhen was used to seeing her as a loser, but when he saw her suddenly becoming polite, he couldn't help but be startled.
He thought that the dinner was not to her liking, so he put down his chopsticks, patted the back of Ji Ling's hand, and ordered Su Peisheng to go to the imperial dining room of the Yangxin Hall to pick up the meal again.
Ji Ling quickly grabbed Yinzhen's sleeve to stop him: "Your Majesty, no need!"
Yinzhen frowned slightly and asked her, "Is there something wrong with you?"
When he frowns, he has an aura of calmness and self-power. Although his eyebrows are beautiful, they give people a very oppressive feeling.
Ji Ling hesitated for a while, but still didn't have the guts to lie to Fourth Master's cold face.
She told the truth: "I gained a lot of weight this time during my pregnancy. I feel... ugly. I want to control it, especially at night. I don't dare to eat more."
When Yinzhen heard what she said, he was startled for a moment, then looked at her carefully and said categorically: "I don't think you are fat."
Ji Ling's heart twitched, and for some reason, the famous phrase "I don't want you to feel, I want me to feel" flashed through his mind.
She covered her mouth and laughed.
Yinzhen shook his head slightly - the two had been together for several years, and he was used to Lingling's sudden self-entertainment.
This little fool!
He signaled the eunuch serving the kitchen to put a chopstick of pork ribs into Concubine Chen's bowl. He looked at her again, pointed at the bowl, and repeated: "I don't think you are fat. Be obedient - eat."
Ji Ling glanced helplessly at Qixi, who had a smile in her eyes - she had long wanted to persuade her master to eat more. If he didn't eat well, he might not lose weight, but his body would collapse first.
Ji Ling lowered his head and picked up the pork ribs obediently, with a low eyebrow and a submissive look on his face, but secretly said in his heart: Be obedient now, and I will eat less tomorrow when you are not around.
Yinzhen looked at her obediently and nodded, with a smile finally appearing on his face.
He stretched out his hand, held Ji Ling's hand on the dining table, looked at her deeply, and said slowly: "My Lingling is beautiful no matter what."
Leng Buding received the Fourth Master's love confession in public, Ji Ling felt her heart skip a beat and almost shook off the food she was holding with her chopsticks.
She raised her head, wiped the bone residue from the corner of her mouth, and looked up at Yinzhen.
However, Yinzhen lowered his head and smiled, retracted his hand, and began to eat his meal gracefully.
After dinner, the two of them were washed by their servants. When they lay down on the bed again, Yinzhen stretched out his hand, lifted Ji Ling's chin, looked at it carefully, and suddenly said a sigh: "It's true.
Thin."
Qixi stood by the bed with a low eyebrow and was untying the bed curtain. When she heard this, she sighed silently in her heart: Can I not lose weight? I control it every day, just a few mouthfuls of rice every time, and I am a slave.
People watching from the side felt hungry for her.
No, even though I was suppressed by the emperor today, I finally had a decent meal. I'm sure that when the emperor leaves tomorrow, the master will have another hungry meal to make up for today.
When Ji Ling heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he saw that the bed curtain had fallen down, and the two of them were isolated in a brocade world of two.
As soon as she turned over, she lay on Yinzhen's chest, held the fourth master's face seriously, and asked him: "Do you really think I've lost weight?"
Yinzhen smiled half-heartedly and didn't answer her. With a strong force on his arm, he pulled her into his arms.
Ji Ling's chin fell on his warm and generous chest, but she didn't even scream out "It hurts!"
Yinzhen had already turned over neatly, and the two of them reversed their positions.
He stretched out his hand, pressed her hands, intertwined their fingers, and said slowly: "Don't worry, I'll take a good look."
Just as Ji Ling was about to speak, she suddenly heard her son crying.
The cry was very loud, and the wet nurse was standing at the door, neither going in nor going in.
Ji Ling was anxious, so she immediately put on her clothes, put on her shoes and came down. When she got to the crib, she took a look. When the wet nurse saw that Concubine Chen had already put on her clothes and got out of bed, she followed her and took a look at her little brother.
He said: "Mother, the young master is hungry."
Ji Ling asked her to hold her little brother in her arms and go to the third princess's nursery to nurse him.
When she lay down on the bed again, Yinzhen stretched out his hand and held her hand - being disturbed by his son, his thoughts went away, but he felt a little more "It's not easy to be a mother again."
sigh,
"Lingling is a good mother." He held her in his arms and patted her shoulder gently, with a hint of endearment in his tone.
After hearing this, Ji Ling's heart moved. She looked up at Yinzhen and said, "Your Majesty, Princess Shushen came to see me a while ago."
Yinzhen was startled after hearing this, then looked down at Ji Ling and said, "Shu Shen? That child has always been timid and doesn't like to move around. How did he end up here with you?"
Ji Ling shook her head and said: "She is not here for herself, but for her second sister."
Yinzhen turned his eyes and understood. He sighed and said, "Is it for He Hui's marriage?"
Ji Ling nodded and said: "I have already told her that the emperor's arrangement must have been carefully considered, but Princess Hehui seems unwilling to marry so early."
Yinzhen's face showed unbearable expression, and he said again: "Which of the daughters in the palace is willing to get married?"
He paused and said: "I have set the date for the twelfth lunar month of next year."
Ji Ling blurted out: "Next year's twelfth lunar month?"
Then there is still more than a year left!
There was no fluctuation in the expression on Yinzhen's face. He just took Ji Ling into his arms, held her shoulders slightly, and said slowly: "That child is very good, except for his appearance.
Everywhere, the distribution and benefits are more than enough.
Lingling, I'm afraid you don't know yet, right? In fact, Prince Yi has also met this little prince. I mentioned it to Prince Yi three or four years ago. He was interested in this child, so I arranged it like this.
.”
Ji Ling's heart skipped a beat. Yes, according to the relationship between the fourth master and Prince Yi, he should have thought of this: this prince's brother-in-law must also be in Prince Yi's heart.
Yinzhen patted Ji Ling's back gently and asked her softly: "How much does Shushen walk with you on weekdays?"
Ji Ling shook her head: "It's very rare. She only came here because of Princess He Hui's affairs, and she even cried in anxiety."
Yinzhen didn't say anything, just nodded, and said: "He Hui has been a bit more coquettish since he was young, and Shushen has always followed her lead. It's not surprising."
He paused, and after a long time, he sighed and said: "It is for this reason that I specially found her a good-tempered husband-in-law. The most rare thing about that child is that she is young.
She has a very steady and gentle temperament, and is tolerant of others. I hope that after He Hui gets married next year, he will understand how much painstaking efforts I and Prince Yi have put into this."
The fourth master had already finished talking to this point, so Ji Ling stopped talking. She put her arms around Yinzhen's waist and pressed her face against his chest. Suddenly, she heard Yinzhen raising his hand to touch her.
On the back of his head, he said slowly: "Lingling, don't worry, when our Xi'er grows up, I will definitely find the best man in the world for her."
