Queen is fearless

Chapter 172 Family
"Twins... what a lucky queen!" In Zhong Cui's palace, Wen Xiuyuan held a Tang Pozi in his hand and stuck it on his lower abdomen.

"My servant heard that in the imperial palace, it is easy to have a child, but it is difficult to keep a child. When giving birth, it is like walking through the gates of hell."

"Even if the empress is pregnant with twins, she may not necessarily be born."

Dongqing stood aside, listening to Wen Xiuyuan's emotion, and talking about her own thoughts.

"It's fine to say this in front of this palace. If someone else hears it, you won't be the only one who is unlucky."

Glancing at Dongqing, there was no expression on Wen Xiuyuan's face.

As she said so, Dongqing quickly knelt down and pleaded guilty to her.

"Okay, get up, although this is disrespectful, I like to hear it very much."

"Next, it must be time to arrange the delivery room for the empress and choose the midwife and wet nurse, right?"

In the palace, if a concubine is pregnant, the delivery room is prepared in advance, as well as the midwife for delivery and the nurse for breastfeeding.

Now that the queen is pregnant, it should be more so, Wen Xiuyuan was secretly thinking.

"Your Majesty, these people were selected by Nanny Liu by the Empress Dowager's side, and Director Yuan by the Emperor's side to investigate the details. I'm afraid it's... not easy."

Hearing only a few words from Wen Xiuyuan, Dongqing understood her thoughts.

"Of course I know that these things are not easy, so what's the rush, isn't there still a few months left?"

After waving his hands, Wen Xiuyuan didn't take it seriously, "Speaking of which, I still need to find an opportunity to get close to the empress, you can arrange it."

After ordering, Wen Xiuyuan stuck Mrs. Tang tighter. Today happened to be her little day, and she probably had a lot of troubles along the way, and her stomach hurt a little.

With Mrs. Tang sticking to her, it would be better, and it was just right to warm her heart.

After receiving the order, Dongqing withdrew, and how to arrange it was her business.

In the evening, when Zhou Jing returned to Fengyang Palace, he didn't mention tomorrow's event, he wanted to surprise Gu Jinzhi.

"Your Majesty, when the Emperor is about to leave, let the maidservant tell you to go to Longgan Palace for lunch at noon."

After breakfast, Qingluan saluted Gu Jinzhi and told her back.

"Today's noon? I know." He replied, and speaking of it, he hadn't been to Longgan Palace for a long time.

This is quite normal, after all, she has been out of the palace for several months, and I don't know what the emperor's arrangements are?
Gu Jinzhi knew that for no reason, the emperor would not let him go to Longgan Palace for dinner, there must be something arranged.

She probably guessed, and finally decided to reveal it in person at noon.

The carriage stopped outside the palace, where Yuan Bao was waiting, and under his leadership, the Gu family came to Longgan Palace.

"Please wait a moment, the emperor is still dealing with court affairs, and the empress will not arrive until a while later."

The emperor ordered him to go to Fengyang Palace in person after receiving the Gu family and escort the empress.

Now the empress is pregnant and has twins, so be careful.

"There is a manager of Lao Yuan." Gu Anzhi thanked Yuan Bao with a smile, stepped forward, and stuffed a purse into Yuan Bao.

Even if it is by the emperor's side, what should be thanked is also what should be thanked.

"Thank you, Mr. Gu." Yuan Bao did not refuse, anyway, he had to tell the emperor in the end, and after ordering people to prepare refreshments, Yuan Bao went to Fengyang Palace.

Gu Jinzhi had already set off, and the imperial doctor told him to exercise more to help with delivery.

Taking advantage of the fact that it was not cold at noon and there was no wind today, Gu Jinzhi held the stove in his hand, and walked towards Longgan Palace with the palace people along with the phoenix chariot.

If you are tired, you can sit on the phoenix chariot.

He was wearing thick clothes and was holding a hand stove, so he didn't feel cold, but he was wearing too much, and walking was much heavier than usual.

Yuan Bao saw the queen's phoenix chariot from a distance, trotted quickly, and arrived in front of Gu Jinzhi.

"My lord, why did you come down and leave? What if you are exhausted?"

When he got close, he hurriedly saluted, his words full of worry.

"How can it be so fragile? Can you be exhausted after walking a few steps? The imperial doctor also said that I should walk around frequently, but the emperor asked you to pick me up?"

Seeing Yuanbao, I knew it was the emperor's intention, Gu Jinzhi asked with a smile.

"If you go back to your empress, the emperor is thinking about you, and specially ordered the servants to go back to Fengyang Palace to pick you up." Unexpectedly, they met halfway, and Yuan Bao took a sneak peek at her, seeing that the queen looked good, so she was relieved.

"Then keep going, it's not too far away." After ordering, Gu Jinzhi continued to walk forward, and Yuan Bao hurriedly followed, paying attention to the surrounding situation from time to time, for fear of any mistakes.

Seeing him like this, the smile on Gu Jinzhi's face deepened, "The emperor asked me to come to Longgan Palace for dinner, but what do you say?"

"I'll know when the empress arrives. Now the servant has said that it's broken. The emperor must deal with the servant."

Responding with a smile, Yuan Bao knew very well that the emperor wanted to surprise the empress.

If it is broken now, the surprise will be gone.

He said so, Gu Jinzhi didn't ask any more questions, and when she arrived at Longgan Palace, she followed Yuanbao into the palace.

At this time, the Gu family was sitting in the hall. Although no one was there, they were still a little cautious.

Suddenly seeing someone walking in, they got up quickly and wanted to salute, but they heard Gu Jinzhi's surprised voice, "Father, mother, why are you here?"

"Empress?" This is the imperial palace, even if it is the daughter of one's own biological relatives, she must be honored as empress.

Gu Jinzhi stopped walking, looked at his parents and elder brother, and saluted her.

"Get up quickly." After saluting, she hurriedly opened her mouth, took a few steps forward, and arrived in front of Gu Fangshi.

She finally knew what the surprise the emperor gave her was.

Even though we meet each other, we still have to salute, and after we can salute, we will be at ease.

Yuan Bao retreated quietly, leaving the hall to Gu Jinzhi's family.

Gu Fang took Gu Jinzhi's hand and looked her up and down. Seeing that she looked good, she reached out and touched her belly.

"I heard from your father that they are twins?" Gu Qingshan returned home yesterday and immediately told his wife the good news.

"Well, the imperial doctor diagnosed them as twins." Nodding with a smile, Gu Jinzhi's eyes fell on Gu Anzhi and Gu Shenzhi.

Although this was the first time for her to really see the two elder brothers, it was probably related by blood, and that kind of intimacy came from her heart.

"Sit down and talk, the queen is pregnant." Gu Qingshan reminded, Gu Fang quickly took her daughter's hand and sat down with her.

It is indispensable to inquire about her health, and ask her about her situation. Gu Jinzhi responded one by one to make her feel at ease.

Outside the palace, Zhou Jing had already arrived. He waved his hand to stop the palace servants from reporting back.

Hearing the laughter from the palace, a smile appeared on Zhou Jing's face, and she knew that she would be happy to invite Jinzhi's family into the palace.

Inside the hall, feeling that there were more people at the entrance of the hall, Gu Qingshan waved his hand at his wife, stopping the question she was about to ask.

She originally wanted to ask, after she became pregnant, did the emperor recruit other concubines?
