After the late spring cold, the weather is getting warmer and warmer.
Everything in spring is full of vitality, the light golden sunshine shines warmly, the flowers, plants and trees seem to be shining, and even the wind seems to be green and golden.
Seasons like this are the most endearing.
Jiang Shu walked slowly, looking at the beautiful spring scenery in the back garden, and her mood improved a lot.
"Princess, the peonies are blooming." Tan Yu said in surprise.
When I looked at it the day before yesterday, it was still a bud, but I don’t know when it quietly opened.
Chu Yu helped Jiang Shu walk over and saw the peonies in the flower garden blooming in full bloom, vying for beauty.
"It's so beautiful." Jiang Shu leaned down and raised his hand to caress the graceful flowers.
Only peonies are the true national beauty, and they move the capital when they bloom.
The king of flowers is truly worthy of his name. As soon as the peonies bloom, the flowers next to them suddenly become eclipsed.
Maybe there was plenty of rain this year, so the flowers, plants and trees grew extraordinarily luxuriantly. Even the peonies are blooming bigger and more beautiful than in previous years.
Jiang Shu was overjoyed when he saw it. He asked Tan Yu to get painting tools, and asked his servants to bring in the painting table. He sat in front of the flower bed and painted with great interest.
As Jiang Shu moves the pen, the delicate flowers and green and graceful leaves appear on the paper bit by bit.
After drawing one flower, Jiang Shu took a look at it and felt it was a bit monotonous and lonely, so he drew another one.
When Yu Zheng finished his official duties and went to the back garden, he immediately saw the man who was concentrating on painting.
She was sitting on a chair, her belly was swollen, the sun shrouded her whole body, reflecting her small face as white as jade, and there was a faint smile at the corner of her mouth, bright and gentle.
"Your Majesty." Yu Zheng approached, Chu Yu Tan Yu Fu stepped forward to greet him, Leng Xing also bowed and called his master.
Jiang Shu looked up and saw Yu Zheng's apricot eyes suddenly lit up: "Husband."
Yu Zheng stood beside her and lowered his eyes to look at the paintings on the painting table.
He looked carefully and didn't say anything for a long time.
Jiang Shu was a little embarrassed by the silent atmosphere. Thinking of Yu Zheng's superb painting skills, and then looking at his own paintings, his face turned red.
Although her painting is not bad, it is still much worse than Yu Zheng.
As if he noticed something strange about her, Yu Zheng looked back and said, "The painting is very good."
"Really?" Jiang Shu wasn't sure whether he really thought her painting was good or whether he was trying to coax her.
She glanced at her painting and then looked up at the flowerbed in front of her.
Two colorful butterflies flew over, flew around the flowers, and landed on a red peony.
The peonies blooming quietly are instantly full of life.
Jiang Shu's eyes flickered and he reached out to hold the pen.
She observed the shape of the butterfly and hesitated several times not knowing where to start.
At this time, a hand with distinct joints came up, held her hand, and wrote decisively.
Just over a cup of tea, two butterflies appeared on the paper.
With these two butterflies, the originally quiet painting became a little more lively, and it immediately looked much better.
"My husband is so amazing." Jiang Shu exclaimed in a low voice.
Although she and Yu Zheng held the pen together, they did not move at all. It was Yu Zheng who led her around on the paper.
So this butterfly was painted by Yu Zheng.
Hearing her praise, Yu Zheng curled his lips, held her hand and asked, "Do you still want to paint?"
Jiang Shu shook his head: "I won't draw anymore."
She has a big belly now, feels uncomfortable sitting for a long time, and wants to get up and walk around.
It just so happened that lunch time was coming, so it was a good time to walk back to the main courtyard to have a meal.
The two of them walked in front hand in hand, and Chu Yutanyu packed up the scrolls and followed behind.
"The prince and the princess are a perfect match." Tan Yu looked at the backs of the two of them with an envious look on her face.
Zhuiyun on the side heard it and turned to look at Tan Yu.
Speaking of which, they are not too young.
It's just that I have a lot of tasks recently, so it's not suitable to talk about marriage. When he was free after finishing his work, he submitted a petition to his master...
Zhuiyun looked at Tanyu's smiling face and made silent calculations in his heart.
The next day is the first day of April.
After Yu Zheng went down to court, he picked up Jiang Shu at the palace gate and went to Zhongling Palace to pay his respects.
Shen Changze, who was about to get on the carriage, looked at Jiang Shu's figure in the distance, his eyes fell on her bulging belly, and his heart felt heavy.
She was going to be a mother.
Although he has long accepted the fact that Jiang Shu does not belong to him, he still feels heartbroken when he suddenly sees Jiang Shu.
If so, if so...
That’s all, no if. Shen Changze struggled to look away and got into the car with heavy steps.
The wheels rolled and drove away from the palace gate. The breeze lifted the car curtain, and Shen Changze saw a pair of beautiful people entering the palace.
In the past, he looked down upon Jiang Shu's background. But now, he is not even qualified to look at her directly.
When a woman marries, she obeys her husband. It turns out that whether a woman is noble or not depends on the man beside her.
A man who is strong enough will not care about his family background at all. No matter who the woman standing next to him is, she is equally noble.
It was never Jiang Shu who surpassed him, but that he was not strong enough.
Unfortunately, he understood it too late.
Shen Changze leaned against the car wall and closed his eyes to hide his surging emotions.
Jiang Shu, who was concentrating on talking to Yu Zheng, didn't notice Shen Changze's gaze, but Yu Zheng caught a glimpse of it.
When he was about to warn, Shen Changze took it back.
After entering the palace gate, the two got on the prepared soft sedan chair and went to Zhongling Palace.
Concubine Yu was overjoyed to see Jiang Shu. She kept staring at Jiang Shu's belly and asked questions.
"Mother." Yu Lan and Zhuang Yun came.
"You are here, sit down quickly." Concubine Yu called them to sit down.
They hadn’t seen each other for a while. Yu Lan looked at Jiang Shu’s belly and said in surprise: “It’s so big, the little guy grows up really fast.”
"Brother is moving." Zhuang Yun also stared at Jiang Shu's belly intently.
Concubine Yu was amused when she heard this: "How do you know Yun'er must be your younger brother?"
"That's my younger brother." Zhuang Yun insisted.
He couldn't explain why, but he just felt that he was carrying a younger brother in his aunt's belly.
The old man in the palace, Aunt Gui, said: "Children's intuition is accurate. Maybe the princess is pregnant with the heir apparent."
Concubine Yu smiled: "It's the same, it will happen sooner or later."
Calculating the time, Concubine Yu said: "It's almost six months, and the baby will be born in two or three months. Can I ask for Wen Po's nanny?"
Jiang Shu shook his head: "Not yet."
Concubine Yu frowned when she heard this and said, "This matter is important. Prepare as soon as possible and choose carefully. Don't be careless."
A woman's life is on the line between life and death, and Concubine Yu deeply understands this.
"Okay, I'll ask someone to start looking for you when you get back." Jiang Shu meekly agreed.
Concubine Yu thought for a while and said worriedly: "Mother Gui is the midwife of Lan'er and Zheng'er. She brought them up single-handedly. She is experienced and knowledgeable. Let her serve in the palace."
"Yes." Aunt Gui on the side responded immediately.
Jiang Shu was slightly surprised and said: "But I have been serving my concubine closely. If I go to the palace, my concubine..."
"Don't worry, there are many people around me to take care of you. It's important for you and the child right now." Concubine Yu patted Jiang Shu's hand lovingly.
This is Yu Zheng's first child. Let alone a nanny, she can't wait to go to the palace to watch it in person.
"Mother is so kind to Jiang Shuke." Yu Lan sighed deliberately.
Concubine Yu gave her an angry look and said, "What? Are you jealous? Then when you get pregnant and give birth after marriage, I will ask Aunt Gui to take care of you."
"I'm not married yet." In front of Zhuang Yun, Yu Lan blushed in embarrassment.
