Chapter 726: Xia Zhining Gave Birth to Twin Daughters
Shoukang Palace.
Liang Jifang felt a little embarrassed when her butt was patted, with a slight blush on her cheeks. She lightly glanced at Chen Mo and said: "Don't use these words to prevaricate me. Tell me, if there is anything else you haven't arranged, I want you to say it yourself." It’s not unfair to say it.”
Chen Mo hugged Liang Ji and sat down on the soft couch, hugged her in his arms, put his hands into his arms, built a snowman, and said warmly: "Yesterday, Duke Meng He gave up the throne to me, and now the princes and nobles in the capital are here." , down to the traders and servants, almost everyone was discussing the abdication of Meng Hegong and my proclaiming the emperor and changing the country's name to Wei.
In this current situation, if I make the former Queen Mother my concubine, although I can completely defy all opinions, the public opinion caused will be too great, and the fact that I proclaimed myself emperor has not yet spread to all parts of the country, not including the DPRK. Stability, if this kind of public opinion turmoil can be avoided, try to avoid it. "
Liang Ji's graceful face had a layer of beautiful pink, which was almost as bright as clouds under the candlelight. The dress on her upper body was almost completely open to both sides. The scenery shown was not something that outsiders could tell. She held on to her hand. Chen Mo wanted him to stop moving his hands, and said in a trembling voice: "How long do you want me to wait?"
"It can take as short as half a month, or as long as two months. When the rumors about this matter pass, I will immediately designate you as my concubine, and the children between us will not be treated badly." Chen Mo attached to Liang In Ji's ears, she could smell the rouge on her body mixed with the fragrance of her skin that only people who have given birth to children could feel. She couldn't help but feel a surge in her heart, and she was also busy with the work at hand.
How could Liang Ji resist Chen Mo's "intimacy"? Her delicate body instantly became as limp as mud. She snuggled into Chen Mo's arms and said in a trembling voice, "You really want to make me a concubine, not a concubine?"
"I keep my word."
Hearing this, Liang Ji felt at ease. She leaned her blushing cheek against Chen Mo's arms, breathed like a blue, and said, "Then what kind of concubine are you going to make me?"
"Concubine Lan." Chen Mo said.
Liang Ji felt happy. In fact, what she said was a bit of a test, because if the other party really wanted to make her a concubine, he must have thought about it in his heart. Then after hearing her question, he could Say it.
On the contrary, you should hesitate a little and think about it later.
Now Chen Mo said it without any hesitation, which just proved that he had made up his mind for himself.
A touch of joy flowed silently in her heart, Liang Ji said softly: "Why is it Concubine Lan?"
"Lan, noble and elegant, handsome, pure and elegant, noble and beautiful, just right for you." Chen Mo lowered his head and kissed Liang Ji's neck.
Liang Ji was very satisfied with this statement, but she said, "Am I as good as you said?"
"Of course."
With that said, Chen Mo pushed Liang Ji gently and made her fall on the soft couch.
…
The nanny with Chen Qin in the outer hall blushed slightly when she heard the entangled voice in the inner hall. Accompanied by the palace maid, she left Shoukang Palace.
Outside the Shoukang Palace, Wang Xiu, who saw that Chen Mo had not come out yet, made such a note on his daily life note.
"On the evening of August 8, the first year of Zhenghe, the emperor stayed in Shoukang Palace."
Later in the night.
Liang Jixiang was dripping with sweat, as if she had just finished a sauna. Her skin was tender and translucent. Under her slender swan neck, a large area of snowy skin had already been covered with a layer of rose red, and beads of sweat were densely covered with crystals.
She hugged Chen Mo like a sloth, with the charm of a mature woman floating in the corners of her brows and eyes. Her voice was a little hoarse and she said: "Honestly, when you rescued Yu Shu and arranged her in the harem, did you want to occupy her? For yourself.”
"No way. Didn't I tell you before? After all, she was the queen of the former dynasty. The impact of committing suicide by committing suicide would be too great. If this spreads out, it would be disgraceful to me, the great Wei Dynasty. It is convenient to place her in the harem. Keep an eye on her at all times to prevent her from seeking death again. When her parents arrive in Beijing, I will let her go and her parents will take her away. "
Chen Mo gently pulled up the curtains. It was too hot in this summer.
"Are you really willing to let her go?" Liang Ji didn't believe it, and said: "Xu Ying and I have fallen into your hands, and with her, we are all the same. The queens of the two emperors before and after us, But you caught them all in one fell swoop.”
Originally, Chen Mo didn't think about this.
But when Liang Ji said this, she couldn't help but feel slightly shocked.
The three queens of the previous dynasty, if Mi'er is added, they would be the fourth queen.
Four queens competing on the same stage, just thinking about it.
Seeing that Chen Mo didn't speak, Liang Jicong drew circles on Chen Mo's chest with her finger and said in a tired voice: "If you admit it, I can help you."
"Ahem." Chen Mo couldn't help coughing and said, "Stop being ridiculous."
"If you say that, why are you so excited?" Liang Ji's lower abdomen was swollen.
"..."
Chen Mo patted the millstone and said, "I am your junior after all. Do you think you can scheme against me like this?"
"Admit it?" Liang Ji pouted her mouth slightly, and then said: "I am doing it for her own good.
You thought it was for her own good to let her go, but that was not the case. She was first deposed, then divorced, and then abandoned by Meng Hegong, so she threw herself into the river. She was rescued by your people and brought back to the palace. Finally, she was taken out of the palace by her parents, although the information was blocked. , but there is no airtight wall in the world, and it will leak out sooner or later. When she returns to her hometown, what will the people in her hometown think when they hear these things? "
Chen Mo's complexion changed slightly.
"Even if this matter has nothing to do with you, they will think that the reason why Menghegong abandoned her was because of you, and if you let her out of the palace, in their eyes, they will only regard it as that you don't want her either. Whether you do this or not, her innocence has been gone since the moment Menghegong didn't want her. And rumors can kill people." Liang Ji used a calm tone to tell the terrible result.
"I"
"Do you want to help her clarify?" Liang Ji seemed to predict what Chen Mo wanted to say, and directly interrupted and said: "The more you help her clarify, the more true it will be in the eyes of outsiders. The more you want to stop it, the more it proves that this is true. People's words are terrible, you should understand better than me.
Once she can't think it through, she will still commit suicide. At that time, they will not think that it was their own rumors that killed her, but will think that it was caused by you abandoning her, thus damaging your reputation."
"What you said, then I can only accept her." Chen Mo also realized the consequences of this matter.
Liang Ji smiled slightly: "You can also keep her in the harem, why do you have to touch her?"
Chen Mo: "..."
August 16th of the first year of Zhenghe.
Chen Mo held a ceremony to confer the title of Queen on Wu Mi and announced it to the world.
The eldest son Chen Jia was appointed as the crown prince of Wei.
It was also on this day that Xia Zhining gave birth.
It was a pair of twins, but unlike her sister's twins, Xia Zhining gave birth to a pair of daughters.
Since this day was the ceremony of conferring the title of Queen, Chen Mo learned that Xia Zhining had given birth to a pair of princesses an hour later.
In Xia Zhining's bedroom.
Xia Zhining sat on the couch, holding a child in her arms. As a seventh-rank warrior, her complexion had recovered a little at this time, and she was not as weak as when she had just given birth. Her face was bright and moving.
Xia Zhiqing, the elder sister, held Xia Zhining's youngest daughter and whispered, "The old saying is true, sour sons and spicy daughters. I made you eat so much spicy food when you were pregnant, and now you have two daughters."
Xia Zhining was pinching her eldest daughter's face, and she said stubbornly, "I just like daughters, no."
Xia Zhining felt a little disappointed. Although she was a woman, because of the times, especially the concubines in the harem, the princes were definitely better than the princesses.
Of course, she was just disappointed, and she didn't hate her two daughters because of this. After all, they were her own flesh and blood.
Xia Zhiqing smiled sweetly, her crystal eyes were full of water, and she smiled and said, "Let them get closer to Youyou and Nuo'er in the future. When they grow up, let Nuo'er take care of them."
They are two sisters, so their children must be united.
"Nuo'er, as a brother, must take care of his sister." Xia Zhining said as a matter of course.
Xia Zhiqing chuckled and said, "I don't know if His Majesty has recovered yet. We are still waiting for him to come and name the two little princesses."
"You can give them a nickname first."
As Xia Zhining said this, a palace maid came in and said, "Empress Xianfei, Empress Defei, His Majesty is here."
As soon as the voice fell, Chen Mo, who was dressed in a black imperial robe, walked in quickly.
After all, nobleness nourishes people. Although it has only been a few days, the two women have already exuded a sense of superiority of noble women. The two women are next to each other, just like the lotus flowers with two stems, stunning and moving.
At this moment, the palace maids and wet nurses waiting in the bedroom have been dismissed.
Chen Mo came forward and called softly, "Zhi Ning, I've kept you waiting for a long time."
"It's okay. Sister Mi's enthronement ceremony is very important. I didn't expect that this matter would be rushed to the next day." Xia Zhining still remembered the posthumous title that Chen Mo gave to Xia Liangqing some time ago. Her voice was soft, almost the same as Xia Zhiqing's.
"Your Majesty, come and see your and your sister's daughter." Xia Zhiqing handed the child in her arms to Chen Mo.
Chen Mo took it and hugged it. People say that newborn babies are not good-looking, but Chen Mo thinks that is not always the case. At least his children are pretty when they are just born.
The two daughters that Xia Zhining gave birth to for him are no exception.
Chen Mo held the little daughter and sat close to him.
Xia Zhiqing smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you didn't cry when you held her. When I held her before, I cried for a long time."
"That's right, after all, she is your own child." Chen Mo's heart was full of sweetness and joy. He didn't care whether Zhining gave birth to a boy or a girl.
"Your Majesty, please give them two names." Xia Zhining said.
Chen Mo asked which one was the oldest, and then said: "Some time ago, I thought of several names for the boy and girl. Zhining, you pick one.
The girl's name is Li, which means extremely smart, skillful and wise. There are also Han, Xin, Lan, Hui"
Xia Zhiqing was on the side, talking about the meaning of each word.
Xia Zhining considered it and said: "The eldest daughter is called Chen Li and the youngest daughter is called Chen Xin. What do you think, Your Majesty?"
"Zhi Ning's choice is of course very good." Chen Mo said.
"Li'er, Xin'er." Xia Zhining shouted happily.
The two children also laughed and babbled.
"Your Majesty, look, they are also very satisfied with this name." Xia Zhiqing said with a smile.
Chen Mo was also very happy, and immediately said: "They said the child was gone, I almost asked, Zhining, are you okay?"
Xia Zhining shook her head: "Sister has been taking care of me."
"That's good, now it's only Xiaolu and Jingfei left." Chen Mo said.
"Sister Xiaolu won't give birth until next year." If Xia Zhiqing remembered the time correctly.
Chen Mo nodded: "I understand that it will be around February or March. Concubine Jing should be born sooner. She should give birth before the year."
"It's getting late, it's mid-August now." Xia Zhining struck up the conversation.
"Well, I have to go visit them later." Chen Mo was busy with things every day, so he didn't want to leave his concubines in the cold.
"Your Majesty, my sister is thinking of you. Neither I nor my sister have thanked you for my father's posthumous title. Before you go to Sister Xiaolu's place, you must first spend time with your sister." Xia Zhining said and glanced at her sister Xia Zhiqing. .
"Zhining." Xia Zhiqing glared at her sister with a blushing face, but didn't say anything. Her brows were shy, and she was obviously looking forward to it.
"Zhiqing." Chen Mo put little Chen Xin on the bed, stretched out his arms to hug Xia Zhiqing, and said, "I've wronged you."
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about?" Xia Zhiqing noticed that Chen Mo lowered his head and came closer, snorted, and quickly closed her bright eyes, with a slight blush on her beautiful face.
"Ahem." Xia Zhining coughed twice and said, "Go to the outer hall, the child is still watching."
Xia Zhiqing's face turned red and she quickly broke away.
Chen Mo was also a little embarrassed.
Xia Zhining continued: "When you go to the outer hall, call the nanny in. I can't take care of two of them by myself."
Xia Zhining had just given birth to a child, so she definitely couldn't stand Chen Mo's fuss, so Chen Mo only pestered Xia Zhiqing for a while before walking towards Chu Ran's palace.
…
In Chu Ran's bedroom.
Xu Ying was also there. She was wearing a long purple dress with wide sleeves, and a golden necklace hanging from her bun was swaying. She had been dressed up carefully. Under the sunlight outside the window, her face was as beautiful as a flower. .
Naturally, her careful dressing was not for Chu Ran to see.
She knew that Chu Ran had been pregnant for more than seven months. As her belly got bigger and bigger, her Majesty would definitely be more diligent when she came to Chu Ran than when she came to her.
And precisely because Chu Ran is pregnant, Chu Ran will definitely not be able to serve His Majesty when he comes. Then she will be the first to get the moon.
At any rate, I had been in the harem before.
She is experienced in fighting for favor.
The result did not disappoint her.
Soon, the maid serving Chu Ran came in: "Empress Jing and Concubine Qing, your majesty is here."
Xu Ying was overjoyed and quickly tidied up her clothes. When she was about to greet him, she suddenly thought of something and stopped moving, taking care of Chu Ran diligently.
He tapped Chu Ran's legs and pinched his back, and asked softly.
Seeing Xu Ying's change, Chu Ran was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled.
