191 The first joy of “Drunken Bones (Guyan 1v1 High H)”

Winter in the palace always comes earlier than expected.When I got up in the morning, a thin layer of frost had already fallen from the eaves, and a white chill spread from the glazed tiles, giving me a sense of tranquility from a distance.

The cold wind came slowly, passing over the walls and stone steps of the Vermilion Palace, and rolled up the remaining leaves on the ground.The eunuch serving in the palace was walking quickly on the palace road, holding a freshly simmered soup in his arms. The steam was still steaming, as if he wanted to dispel the coldness of the winter.

In the Yangxin Hall, the curtain is not rolled up, the light gauze is swaying, and the light and shadow are mottled.Yan Zhaozhao looked like he was still asleep. He turned over again while half asleep, his hands subconsciously looking for the man beside him who exuded warmth.

But the tentacles were only cold.

Yan Zhaozhao frowned slightly and woke up completely.It was now afternoon. In the past, she would always wait for Xie Yan to come back from court and have dinner with her.But the emperor who was in court still cared about his beloved queen who was on the warm tent bed, and would always ask the chamberlain to simmer hot soup for her to warm her belly.

Maybe it was the lazy winter, but Yan Zhaozhao had been feeling tired recently, and even her appetite was getting smaller day by day.Her taste has quietly changed. The sweets she once loved are now boring to her stomach. Instead, she can’t get enough of things like sour plums and green fruits.She smelled the soup brought by the chamberlain, then wrinkled her nose and waved her hand for him to take it away.”Why is this soup so fishy today?”

The eunuch was a little confused. Today’s soup was cooked by the imperial kitchen according to the empress’s recent taste. It is supposed to be delicious and appetizing, so how could it smell fishy?Just as he was about to speak, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the palace door. In a blink of an eye, he caught a glimpse of the emperor’s black dragon robe and hurriedly knelt down to say hello.

“Have you lost your appetite again today?” Xie Ci Yanping left the maid and eunuch in the room and brought the lazy kitten on the bed to him, “Do you want Dr. Xuan to come and take a look?”

Yan Zhaozhao naturally rested her chin on his shoulder, looking full of dependence.”It’s just that it’s cold outside and I don’t want to move. My appetite has also become smaller. I don’t need to call in a doctor.”

Xie Ciyan did not force her to do anything, and stroked her unrolled black hair with his big palm, “Does Madam have the appetite to have a couple of lunches with me?”

Yan Zhaozhao hugged the man’s neck tightly and smiled sweetly.”Then I order you to groom me.”

Xie Ciyan was so happy that he picked her up by the waist and went to the next room to wash up. He personally picked out an elegant palace dress for her to put on, and then sat her down in front of the dressing table.The man held up his eyebrows, his expression a little solemn, and stared at the unparalleled beauty in the bronze mirror. He painted her eyebrows one stroke at a time, even more seriously than when reviewing the memorial.

After a long while, he was satisfied with his forehead.Her fingertips curled up in her tied hair, her tone full of regret.”It’s a pity that I can’t learn how to tie my hair, otherwise I would also like to personally tie up this black hair for my wife.”

Yan Zhaozhao laughed and couldn’t help but scold him.”You are the emperor of a country, and your hands should be holding red pens to criticize the civil affairs of this world. Why are you still obsessed with dressing up your daughter’s family?”

“Criticizing memorials is not the destination of my life after all.” There was a lazy look on his eyebrows, but his smile was very affectionate, as if he was seducing her heart and soul inch by inch, and there was only her shadow in his eyes.”When I step down in the future, I will dress you up and tie your hair every day. Staying with you is the joy I want.”

She slowly raised her eyes to look at him, a light mist rising in her eyes, which was both moved and frightened.At that moment, my heart seemed to be hit quietly by something, sour and soft.She looked at him, and suddenly there was a sense of peace in her heart that she had never felt before.It was a kind of happiness wrapped up in a promise, as if no matter how troubled the years were, the man in front of her would come with a comb in hand and give her a haircut every day.

Yan Zhaozhao’s voice was low, with a hint of coquettish anger, “Then you must keep your word and don’t go back on your word.”

“Of course.” Xie Ciyan smiled lowly, with a lingering warmth hidden in the end of his eyes. He picked up a strand of her black hair and stroked it slowly with his fingertips.”You alone are enough to overcome everything in this world.”

After all the commotion, the two finally sat down and took their chopsticks to have lunch together.

Today’s meal was obviously prepared with great effort by the imperial chef. They were all the refreshing and sour dishes that she favored these days.Even the always greasy roasted mutton is specially drizzled with some sour plum juice, which is sour and sweet for appetizers.Yan Zhaozhao subconsciously took a piece of it, but before she could eat it, the smell suddenly hit her nostrils, causing a sudden nausea.She suddenly frowned, dropped her chopsticks, turned sideways and retched, her face turning pale instantly.

Xie Ciyan’s expression suddenly changed, and he quickly stretched out his hand to pat her back, looking flustered.Before the chamberlain beside him could react, he had already ordered in a deep voice: “Quick, go and ask for Doctor Shen!”

Seeing that she was vomiting violently but couldn’t spit anything out, he felt extremely distressed. He quickly poured a cup of hot tea and brought it to her lips, coaxing in a low voice: “Wrinkle your mouth, would it be better?”

Yan Zhaozhao took a sip of some tea, and the nausea in her chest eased slightly. However, the nausea still lingered, and the appetite that had just risen was completely suppressed.

Xie Ciyan saw that she had put down the tea cup, her face was still pale, and her brows tightened.He half held her in his arms, lowered his head and kissed her on the temples, his voice low and hoarse, “Don’t force yourself to eat it yet, wait until Dr. Shen can see what’s going on.”

It was a matter of concern for the Queen, and Imperial Physician Shen did not dare to neglect it at all. He immediately put down what he was doing, picked up the medicine box and went straight to the Nourishing Heart Hall.He knelt down beside Yan Zhaozhao, took out a handkerchief and put it on his wrist, then carefully put his two fingers on it and closed his eyes to check the pulse carefully.

For a moment, Imperial Physician Shen’s face was filled with joy, and he raised his hands to the emperor and empress, “Congratulations to the Emperor, congratulations to the Queen! Your Majesty’s pulse is smooth and strong, and her pulse is obvious, which means she is pregnant!”

The hall fell silent for a moment.

Yan Zhaozhao was completely stunned. She subconsciously wanted to touch her lower abdomen with her fingertips, but she curled up her fingers the moment they were about to touch her. Her eyes were full of disbelief, and her red lips murmured, “Impossible, this is impossible…”

She clearly… won’t get pregnant again, why…

Xie Ciyan’s back stiffened, and he stared at the happy look on Imperial Physician Shen’s face, “Is this, are you serious?”

Seeing the two people reacting like this, Doctor Shen felt even more pleased in his heart.The look in her eyes became even more determined, “My queen has been pregnant for more than a month, her pulse is stable, but her energy and blood are slightly weak, so she needs to take good care of herself.”

“But, but I…” Yan Zhaozhao still couldn’t believe it, and was even more afraid that everything in front of her was just an illusory dream, and once she woke up from the dream, there would be nothing.

Doctor Shen stroked the white beard on his chin, and the smile between his brows and eyes deepened, “Your Majesty, do you still remember that I said before that I would nurse you back to health? Now that your Majesty has been warmed up for a while, and your body is well, you will naturally be pregnant.” He immediately stood up, took out a few medicines from the medicine box he carried on his back, and gave them to the Empress’s personal maid, Bi Luo, and then wrote down a prescription for an abortion and asked her to follow him back to get it later.”What I have to do now is to pay attention to my diet, avoid meat and fish, and don’t worry too much.”

Yan Zhaozhao on the other end has not yet fully recovered, but Xie Ciyan on the other end has already written down what the imperial doctor said one by one with a solemn expression.It wasn’t until Dr. Shen left the Yangxin Palace and returned to the Tai Hospital to prescribe anti-fetal medicine that Yan Zhaozhao whispered softly with the corners of her eyes turning red, “Xie Ciyan, tell me…am I dreaming?”

“It’s not a dream.” The man directly took her wrists and put them on his warm cheeks. He spoke warmly but firmly, “You can touch me and feel the warmth on my face. How can it be a dream?”

He took her careful palm and gently placed it on her flat belly, “Zhaozhao is indeed pregnant. In her belly is our child.”

She blinked, as if she couldn’t believe it, and as if she was afraid of startling the new life in her belly. In the end, she just said a soft “hmm” and threw herself into his arms with choked sobs.

“Ayan, we finally have our own child…”

Xie Ciyan slowly placed his hand on her hair, his tone gentle and full of gratitude, “Thank you for allowing me to have the most precious gift in the world.”

The air was filled with a touch of sandalwood, and the soft candlelight reflected the two people’s dependent figures. The room was quiet and warm, with only whispers and heartbeats intertwining into the deepest affection.
