Chapter 116 The Reason for Being Frightened
Several court doctors were not surprised.
"It's nothing serious. These bruises will gradually disappear as the Fourth Young Master grows older. It will take at most a hundred days."
"But a hundred days ago, I'm afraid her body will be weaker than the little princess's."
King Jing frowned and pointed at Doctor Hu, "For the next few days, you will focus on taking the pulses of the two children. If they need anything, just go to the warehouse and get it. You must take good care of these two children."
Doctor Hu: "I will do my best."
Because they were twins, both children weighed only four pounds, not as heavy as Fang Yuaner's third son who was born prematurely.
Fortunately, the two children cried loudly, which made King Jing feel relieved.
King Jing was also happy to see that he had two more children.
With a wave of his hand, he said one word: "Reward!"
As for how much the reward is, that is not his concern.
The princess smiled and said, "Your Majesty, would you like to name the two children?"
King Jing pondered for a moment, "Fang's child hasn't been named yet, so there's no need to rush, Old Four."
Although he said so, among the two children, King Jing obviously prefers the healthy second daughter.
Because he loved his daughter so much, he thought for a moment and then said, "I plan to name the girl Duan Jing. What do you think, Princess?"
The princess was stunned. "Your Majesty, are you talking about the title?"
King Jing nodded and said to Shi'an, "Have someone draft a memorial and submit it immediately."
The court has been in turmoil recently. If we don't hurry up, who knows how long it will drag on.
The maids and servants in the courtyard did not know this and only thought that King Jing was very fond of Princess Duanjing.
Concubine An, who had just given birth, was both happy and scared when she heard the news.
I am happy that the prince dotes on the princess, but I am afraid that the prince will be angry because the fourth young master is not born with enough talent.
Ping An comforted her, "Master, don't think too much. Today is a great day!"
"Your Highness doesn't have many children, and you gave birth to twins at once. Dragon and phoenix, auspicious, what a good omen!"
"Our fourth son was born weak. The palace doctor also said that he only needs to be well cared for for two or three months and he will be no different from a normal child."
"Now the Second Princess has gained the favor of the prince and has been personally crowned a princess. What a wonderful thing!"
Concubine An's heart was finally at peace.
"I was overthinking it."
After the child was settled, King Jing finally had time to ask other questions, "What happened to Concubine An who was frightened?"
The princess was embarrassed to speak, so Mother Li spoke up on her behalf.
Mother Li had no intention of covering up for Concubine An and said frankly, "It was said that Concubine An had a nightmare and frightened herself, causing a miscarriage."
King Jing: "..."
At this moment, Prince Jing and the Princess had the same expression as when they first heard about this.
For a moment, King Jing really felt disgusted with Concubine An's cowardice and incompetence.
He even began to doubt whether it was right for him to protect Concubine An and let her give birth to twins?
With Concubine An's ability, could she really raise two children after giving birth to them?
It's a pity that the princess is unwilling to raise the child, otherwise King Jing would have thought of letting the princess adopt the child.
At this moment, Shi'an came in hurriedly, "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened."
King Jing glanced at him and said, "Just say what you want to say."
Shi An was about to cry, but he couldn't: "The Purple Palace collapsed under the weight of the snow!"
"I heard that the Emperor is staying in the Purple Palace tonight. I don't know what's going on now."
For a moment, the room was silent.
King Jing's face darkened, and he turned and left, "Send someone to prepare the horse, I want to enter the palace!"
Just as he reached the door, he turned back and reminded, "All matters in the mansion shall be handled by the princess."
The princess bowed to Prince Jing and said, "Your Highness, please rest assured. I will take care of everything in the palace."
By the time the princess finished her polite remarks, King Jing's men had disappeared.
Concubine An, who had just calmed down, was frightened again when she heard the news of the collapse of the Zichen Palace from the little maid.
"How could it be such a coincidence!"
"Ping An, do you think the prince and princess would think that the birth time of the two children is unknown?"
Ping'an hadn't slept all night, and his forehead was throbbing with pain, but he still had to patiently comfort Concubine An.
After a lot of trouble, by the time Xie Run realized what had happened, it was already time for lunch.
She didn't know that Fang Yuan'er and Wan Linlang had both played a "prophecy".
When she heard the news that the Zichen Palace had collapsed, the first thing she did was to take charge of the people in her own courtyard, asking them to guard the gates and not let them wander around.
The princess acted quickly and had all the doors locked. No one was allowed to open them without her matching card.
For a time, the entire Prince Jing's Mansion was in a panic.
This makes it easier for the two newly born children to raise their children.
The news that Fang Yuan'er personally fed the third young master spread in the mansion and caused a lot of criticism.
However, Fang Yuan'er was quite powerful in the mansion, and no one dared to say anything.
Dan Tao took people to two places to deliver gifts, and told Xie Run about it when she came back.
"Concubine Fang insisted on feeding the baby herself, and it seems to have had some effect."
"I see that the Third Young Master, although he was born seven months premature, is actually stronger than the Fourth Young Master."
"In the past few days, the Second Princess and the Fourth Young Master have grown up quite a bit. The Second Princess is lively and cheerful, and looks very lovely."
Xie Run leaned on the couch and read a book. He asked with a smile, "What about the fourth young master?"
Dan Tao pursed her lips and shook her head, "I'm afraid it's not very good."
Xie Run: "Why is it not good?"
"Originally, the bruises on the Fourth Young Master's body were not serious, but Concubine An was probably afraid that the Prince would be angry, so she took very careful care of him, calling the palace doctor at the slightest sign of trouble."
Fortunately, King Jing specially assigned a palace doctor to take care of Concubine An, otherwise she would have to make a fuss in the backyard every time.
However, it might be because King Jing specifically pointed out someone that Concubine An would often ask the court doctor to come and see her.
After all, she didn't have the courage to cause trouble in the backyard.
Dan Tao used tongs to stir the charcoal in the cage before saying, "When this servant went there, I saw a bit of chaos in the yard. The Fourth Young Master would burst into tears at the slightest disturbance, and the others would follow suit and get anxious and panicky."
"A baby who's only a few days old, it's time for him to eat and sleep well, why is he crying like that?"
Xie Run nodded. "If you keep getting so worked up, you'll probably lose your health and become prone to developing delicate health problems."
"He's a healthy child. As long as he's raised normally, there's nothing to worry about."
Dan Tao nodded, "Isn't it? It's good for this servant to meet the little princess."
"They were born on the same day. The little princess is now a bit fatter than the fourth young master. She is fair and tender, and very lovable."
Xie Run put down the book and said lazily, "There's nothing we can do about it. Concubine An is just like that. She gets frightened at the slightest thing..."
