Gu Xuan: "......"
I’m not so hungry that I can’t stand it anymore! I don't dare to be alone with this wet nurse!
She dared to kill herself while staying in the main palace of her mother-in-law. If she was left alone in a space with her... Gu Xuan did not dare to continue thinking about it.
She could only cry more and more miserably, hoping that her mother-in-law would be reluctant to leave her.
After all, she was the daughter she finally got. Xie Ziyue felt really distressed. Seeing her daughter crying, her voice became hoarse. She frowned and said, "What's wrong? Why is the princess crying all the time? Is there something uncomfortable? Put it down." I’ll take a look.”
"Mother, the little princess is hungry." The wet nurse smiled and put Gu Xuan next to Xie Ziyue again:
"Newborn babies are like this. They cry all the time when they are hungry. They will be fine when they are full."
"If the princess is hungry, take her to breastfeed her." Xie Ziyue raised her hand and touched her daughter's cheek.
Feeling her mother's hand touch her face, Gu Xuan instantly found an opportunity and tightly grasped her mother's finger.
She couldn't see clearly before, so she couldn't grasp the concubine accurately. Now it was time for her to seize the opportunity.
Xie Ziyue did not expect that her daughter would catch her. Although she was not very strong, she was so soft-hearted.
At this time, Taoxiang leaned over to hug the princess. Xie Ziyue was cruel and prepared to pull out her fingers.
But as soon as she pulled her fingers away, she saw that her daughter started to cry again, and she cried very loudly and was out of breath.
Xie Ziyue tentatively put her hand back, and then the little princess stopped crying.
"It turns out that the princess is unwilling to leave the empress." Taoxiang was surprised.
While she was surprised, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart at how smart the little princess was. At such an old age, she already knows how to recognize her mother.
It is naturally a good thing for the princess to be so close to the empress.
Xie Ziyue looked at this little guy who was connected to her by blood. She was so young, but she still had her own thoughts and had a temper at such a young age. As long as she pulled her hand away a little, she would groan.
For a while, I was reluctant to separate from my daughter.
When he looked up again, he saw the honest wet nurse standing aside, seemingly waiting to take her daughter away at any moment. With her daughter's small body close to hers, she thought for a while and sighed:
"Go down." Xie Ziyue said this to Wet Nurse Lin.
The wet nurse didn't expect that the imperial concubine would let her go down, and she was stunned for a moment: "Empress, princess..."
"I feed myself." Xie Ziyue lovingly touched her daughter's delicate cheek with her fingers: "If you're fine, go down."
As soon as these words came out!
Not to mention the wet nurse and Tao Xiang, even the infant Gu Xuan was shocked.
In ancient times, in some respectable families, the wife had to provide a wet nurse after giving birth to a child, who could take care of the child and feed the child.
In this way, women who have given birth can have more time to recover and will not be unable to adapt to the exhaustion of raising a child.
She never thought about letting her mother-in-law feed her, but wet nurse Lin almost killed herself. She didn't want to leave her life in her hands, so she kept moaning and trying to cling to Xie Ziyue.
After all, only Xie Ziyue can give her a sense of security.
But I didn't expect Xie Ziyue to be willing to feed her herself.
"Mother, you have just given birth, and your body..." Tao Xiang hesitated and wanted to give advice.
"I'm fine." Xie Ziyue waved to Wet Nurse Lin to go down, "The emperor Xu was just born and didn't want to leave this palace."
After saying that, he stood up carefully and held the child in his arms, his expression full of affection:
"You go out and stay."
When Taoxiang heard what Xie Ziyue said, she knew that even her own persuasion would be useless, as the empress had already made up her mind.
She could only look at the little princess in her arms, sighing in her heart that her mother cared about the little princess, and then exited the room, closing the door behind her.
"Poor little one." Xie Ziyue untied her clothes to feed her daughter. Seeing that her eyes were swollen from crying, she touched her heartily: "Why do you cry so much?"
"Eey--" Gu Xuan waved her hands happily and buried herself in her mother-in-law's arms.
The mother-in-law really smelled good, and she was very gentle to her, and she obviously loved her very much.
She concentrated on drinking milk, while Xie Ziyue kept looking at her daughter. The tenderness between mother and daughter was strong.
It wasn't until Gu Xuan had finished drinking that Xie Ziyue put on her clothes and let Taoxiang come in to serve her.
Newborn babies always eat well and go to bed. Gu Xuan was already so sleepy that she yawned repeatedly. She was worried that she would be taken care of by the previous wet nurse while she was sleeping, so she kept squeezing the hem of Xie Ziyue's clothes with her fleshy little hands.
Xie Ziyue was afraid that taking away her clothes would wake her daughter up. Seeing that she was sleeping so soundly, she asked Taoxiang to watch outside while she took the child to rest.
After all, Xie Ziyue had just given birth and her body had not yet recovered. Not long after she lay down, she fell asleep like her daughter.
Tao Xiang also followed her instructions and stood guard at the door.
Han Xianzong woke up at noon. After washing and feeling refreshed, he went to the side hall to see his daughter, but was told that the little princess was in the main hall.
Normally, the children of concubines would be raised in the side hall. He had just been promoted to father-emperor, so he was really new to that little guy.
When the wet nurse said that the child would be taken care of by Xie Ziyue, Han Xianzong was stunned.
Yue'er has just given birth, how can she take care of the child immediately?
He immediately hurried to the main hall. Taoxiang was guarding the door. When she saw him coming, she was about to salute, but he waved his hand to stop him:
"Have you rested your beloved concubine and princess?" Speaking of his new daughter, Han Xianzong was all smiles, and everyone could tell that he loved the little princess very much.
"Yes." Taoxiang also lowered her voice, fearing to wake up the two people inside:
"Her Royal Highness the Princess cried endlessly, but she was very attached to the Queen and was quiet and well-behaved around her, so the Queen and the Princess rested together."
Han Xianzong felt itchy in his heart when he heard everything Taoxiang described.
If his reason hadn't told him to let the two people inside rest, what he wanted to do most now was to go in and take a look.
However, there will be many opportunities to see it in the future. What Han Xianzong is most anxious about now is to quickly come up with a nice name and title for his daughter, so that everyone in the palace will know his love for the little princess.
Before walking out of Weiyang Palace, he gave some instructions to the servants in the palace, and then hurried back to Qinzheng Palace and summoned many bachelors into the palace.
Seeing that he would not go to court today and was suddenly summoned by Emperor Xianzong of the Han Dynasty, the co-organizing scholar thought there was something urgent. After receiving the order, he hurried towards the palace.
After the results arrived, they saw Emperor Xianzong of the Han Dynasty looking over and over with a lot of bamboo slips. There were a lot of rice papers on the table, and a lot of them were balled up on the ground and thrown away.
Papers were scattered all over the floor in the royal study room. If he hadn't confirmed that he was not mistaken, the co-organizer would have thought he was hallucinating.
"Old minister, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."
After a brief moment of astonishment, the co-organizer saluted.
"Why should I be so polite when I love you?" Hearing the voice of the co-organizer of the bachelor's degree, Han Xianzong suddenly raised his eyes, and his eyes suddenly lit up:
"You're here just in time. Come and help me think of the eldest princess's name."
"Eldest princess?" The co-organizer, the bachelor, didn't know the news that the imperial concubine gave birth to a princess this morning. He was a little confused when he heard the news and didn't react for a while.
"The imperial concubine gave birth to a little princess for me this morning." Having said this, Han Xianzong's lips were filled with a hint of doting, clearly doting on the newly born eldest princess:
"She is very beautiful and cute. I thought about it for a long time and felt that there is no suitable title. I have already thought of a name. Aiqing has always been knowledgeable, why don't you help me think about it?"
Co-organizer: "..." Dare you call him to the palace just for this matter?
It's not like he has never seen a father who dotes on his children, but he didn't expect that His Majesty would have such a paternal side.
The co-organizing scholar saw Han Xianzong's eyes shining brightly, and he couldn't help but laugh when he thought about the little princess, and he was happy for a while.
The monarch and his ministers discussed it for a long time and spent a long time in the imperial study room.
In Weiyang Palace, Xie Ziyue took her daughter to sleep together until it was almost dark.
When Han Xianzong walked forward gently, he saw two faces, one big and one small, next to each other.
The older one was so beautiful that even though she had just given birth, it was hard to conceal her appearance.
The younger one can't see any resemblance to the older one, but their lips are exactly the same.
Comparing these two similar faces, Han Xianzong's heart softened.
He stepped forward and touched his daughter's face, and accidentally touched Xie Ziyue's hand.
Xie Ziyue looked bleary-eyed and looked a little surprised when she saw Han Xianzong standing in front of her:
"Why is Your Majesty here?"
"I miss you, so I came to see you." Han Xianzong stared at the sleeping little princess and said softly:
"The little princess looks a lot like you, thank you for your hard work."
The pain of childbirth can destroy a person's will. When she was seized by the endless pain of childbirth last night, there were several times when Xie Ziyue wanted to kill her head first.
But thinking about her children, she still held back.
She has always been strong, but when she heard Han Xianzong's words "Thank you for your hard work," she couldn't help but blush.
"I don't have to work hard." She looked at Han Xianzong with a smile: "I am willing to give birth to an heir for you."
After hearing this, Han Xianzong felt very moved.
He grabbed Xie Ziyue's hand and wrapped it with both hands. Neither of them spoke for the rest, enjoying the tender moment quietly.
Just when Xie Ziyue thought Han Xianzong couldn't speak, he suddenly said:
"I have already decided what name to give the little princess, as well as the title."
As he spoke, he looked at Xie Ziyue, seeming to be asking for credit.
"What is it?" After all, it was her daughter's name and title, so Xie Ziyue was very concerned.
Emperor Xianzong of the Han Dynasty had said more than once before that if a little princess is born, she must give her daughter the most beautiful name.
"Xuan of Hemerocallis fulva," Han Xianzong did not show off and blinked:
"It comes from the meaning of 'Emperor's Proclamation Chamber', but because she is a little princess, I used the meaning of Hemerocallis fulvae."
Han Xianzong really thought that if he was a young prince, he would do his best to train him in the future.
Even if a princess is born now, he will still express his original expectations for his daughter in her name.
