Chapter 284 - 218: Daily Pregnant Slacking (Part 3)
Wen Ranchen’s head was hit, but he didn’t dare complain. He only held Shen Jingxian’s hand tenderly and blew on it, "Madam, don’t hurt yourself."
Shen Jingxian snorted, opened her arms, "Hold."
Wen Ranchen then embraced Shen Jingxian in his arms, and the two continued to sleep.
The next morning, as soon as she woke up, Shen Jingxian’s stomach churned again, and she immediately leaned over the bed, "Ugh!"
Shen Jingxian’s hand clutched the edge of the bed, her originally rosy fingers turning nearly pale, yet she couldn’t vomit anything, just dry heaving.
Wen Ranchen didn’t attend the court today, concerned that Shen Jingxian was restless last night and might be unwell. Seeing her like this now, he immediately summoned the Imperial Physician.
He had never seen a pregnant woman before, nor knew what normal pregnancy looked like, he only knew his wife seemed very uncomfortable now.
After a while, Shen Jingxian felt it was enough and turned over to lie back in bed.
Wen Ranchen wiped her reddened eye corners, "Don’t be afraid, I’m here."
Shen Jingxian, though uncomfortable, was amused by Wen Ranchen’s words, "What am I afraid of, isn’t it normal to vomit during pregnancy?"
Wen Ranchen nodded, squeezing her hand tightly, "Yes, I’m the one who’s scared."
Shen Jingxian also squeezed his hand back, "Don’t be afraid."
They talked for a while, and suddenly Shen Jingxian felt a cramping pain in her abdomen. She lifted the quilt and saw a bit of blood red.
Before Shen Jingxian could react, Wen Ranchen had already gone crazy.
Shen Jingxian hurriedly pulled him, "Calm down, I’m fine, just feeling a bit uncomfortable."
Wen Ranchen didn’t care, quickly helping her lie down well before rushing out.
Soon, he dragged back an Imperial Physician.
The Imperial Physician looked jittery, clearly intimidated by Wen Ranchen.
"You, check what’s wrong with His Majesty."
The Imperial Physician dared not speak much, bowed and quickly took Shen Jingxian’s pulse.
While diagnosing, the Imperial Physician’s face gradually became serious.
"His Majesty’s fetal position is unstable, and today there’s bleeding, you must rest well, otherwise the child cannot be preserved."
Wen Ranchen foolishly nodded, the words ’well rest’ stuck in his mind.
The Imperial Physician prescribed a few remedies for Shen Jingxian to drink daily.
Only then did Wen Ranchen calm down a bit.
After watching Shen Jingxian fall asleep again, Wen Ranchen went outside alone, no one knew where.
Anyway, when Shen Jingxian woke up again, she received news that she didn’t need to attend court temporarily.
"Ah? Is that okay?"
She goes occasionally now, but she appears four or five times a month, it’s not right to just be a hands-off boss.
"You must rest well, I’ve discussed with Father Emperor, for now he will temporarily govern on behalf."
Oh, so it’s my poor old father going to court for me, then it’s fine.
The Empress Dowager feared the inexperienced couple might be nervous, specially sent an elderly Nanny over to prevent something like Wen Ranchen capturing the Imperial Physician again in the morning.
Wen Ranchen’s expression remained unchanged, although he was indeed a rookie, he acted like a big shot.
Shen Jingxian dared not move much lying on the bed, after hearing the Imperial Physician, she felt having a little one inside was dangerously fragile, fearing a simple move might lose it.
Yet, for dinner, Wen Ranchen planned to carry her there.
"No way, what if it gets squeezed when carried."
Wen Ranchen withdraw his hands awkwardly, thinking fast, "Then, carry on the back?"
"Would carrying on the back compress?" Shen Jingxian was equally puzzled.
The old Nanny watched beside speechless, but dare not interrupt her masters, only spoke after their contemplations ended, "Your Majesty, the child is still small, carrying on the back is fine."
The two rookies listened obediently, following both the Imperial Physician and Nanny’s words.
"Then, we’ll carry on the back first."
Shen Jingxian slowly climbed onto Wen Ranchen’s back.
Wen Ranchen walked very slowly, fearing he might jolt Shen Jingxian.
After a while, Shen Jingxian relaxed lying on Wen Ranchen’s back.
Due to pregnancy, Shen Jingxian became more attentive to her diet.
Avoiding food that might conflict with medicines, and ensuring enough nourishment.
It was just the typical red dates and goji berries routine.
Shen Jingxian ate the bland and tasteless dishes, ahead of schedule in a wellness lifestyle of goji berries in warm cups.
After a few days of rest, Shen Jingxian felt better, and summoned Pan Jiaojiao and Song Yan into the palace.
They had previously come looking for her, but then Shen Jingxian was asleep, so Wen Ranchen sent them back.
Although Shen Jingxian harshly scolded Wen Ranchen after waking, his expression was evidently: I’m wrong, but won’t change.
Upon receiving the summons, both quickly came to the palace, Pan Jiaojiao doesn’t get along well with Wen Ranchen, so Shen Jingxian asked him to leave for a while to chat with her friends.
Wen Ranchen wasn’t willing, demanding Shen Jingxian swear not to accept any men from Pan Jiaojiao before he reluctantly left.
In short, Wen Ranchen and Pan Jiaojiao’s grudge over male attendants remains unsolvable.
Wen Ranchen thinks Pan Jiaojiao is improper, Pan Jiaojiao thinks Wen Ranchen blocks His Majesty’s pursuit of happiness.
No one asked Shen Jingxian’s opinions, at such times they seem unimportant.
"Salute to the Emperor, long live, long live, long, long live."
"Why are you two following these formalities?" Shen Jingxian poked her head out of bed, before moving further, Song Yan already approached to hold her, "Your Majesty be careful."
Shen Jingxian: ...
"I only wanted to shift a bit, this position makes my bottom ache."
Song Yan’s face showed no expression as she checked where Shen Jingxian felt discomfort, picked her up and changed her position, Shen Jingxian instantly felt much better.
"Sister Song Yan! You’re amazing, you know even this."
Song Yan smiled without a word.
She surely knew, having brushed up her knowledge since knowing His Majesty’s pregnancy, unlike Wen Ranchen who was still blissfully clueless.
Pan Jiaojiao wouldn’t be outdone, as Song Yan was praised, she fished out a full gold longevity lock and enthusiastically offered it, "Your Majesty! This is for you, when your child is born, let him wear it!"
Shen Jingxian smiled, taking the longevity lock, yet as she received it her hand sank a bit, only Song Yan quickly supported it.
Shen Jingxian: My gosh! So heavy?
Pan Jiaojiao giggled, "This is a solid gold lock!"
Song Yan rolled her eyes at her, "How can something so heavy be worn?"
"What’s wrong with heavy? Heavy shows my sincerity! Unlike someone, who comes empty-handed."
"Sometimes sincerity becomes burdensome, I never do useless things."
Amused, Shen Jingxian knew Song Yan never loses in arguments, just enjoying the show when Pan Jiaojiao suddenly looked over, "Your Majesty, look at her!"
Shen Jingxian:?
