Chapter 245 Rejection
Chapter 245 Rejection
Lan Qingwu's thin eyebrows could not help but frown: "Princess, you look really bad, please ask another imperial physician to take a look."
Princess Yuhua said weakly, "They all said I was experiencing normal morning sickness. What a bunch of useless doctors."
Lan Qingwu thought more deeply. He thought that Princess Yuhua might have severe first pregnancy reactions. The imperial doctors did not dare to use medicine easily. They just let Princess Yuhua get through the first three months. She would feel better. However, Princess Yuhua was suffering too much. If she was not careful, it might affect the development of the fetus in her belly.
"Princess, I will inform His Majesty of your condition and ask him to send the chief physician of the Imperial Hospital to examine you. What do you think?"
Princess Yuhua naturally agreed without hesitation: "Imperial sister-in-law, you are so kind! I was afraid that my affairs would bother my brother, but you don't know that when my brother's eyes glanced at me, my legs went weak and I didn't dare to ask my brother for help."
Lan Qingwu couldn't help but laugh: "Your royal brother is not like what you say, he still loves you very much."
The two talked in the bedroom for a long time, and Empress Dowager Li sat quietly in the main hall.
Nanny Li looked at Empress Dowager Li's expression and said tentatively, "Empress Dowager, please let the Empress have dinner in the Cining Palace later!"
As long as the Empress is in the Cining Palace, His Majesty will certainly come to the Cining Palace at noon, so that the mother and son can spend more time together.
Empress Dowager Li glanced at Nanny Li and almost instantly understood what she was thinking. She pondered for a moment, then stood up and walked into Princess Yuhua's bedroom.
Lan Qingwu and Princess Yuhua were chatting about some interesting children's stories. They were in high spirits and full of laughter. Lan Qingwu looked up and saw Li Ma Ma supporting the Queen Mother Li and walking in. She quickly stood up and said, "Your Highness greets the Queen Mother."
Empress Dowager Li hurriedly said, "Quickly stand up! Why are you being so polite now?"
Nanny Li said softly, "Empress, you are now the legitimate daughter-in-law of the Empress Dowager. You should call her 'Mother'!"
Lan Qingwu immediately followed suit and said, "Mother! It's all my fault for calling you that."
Empress Dowager Li smiled slightly. "Hurry up and sit down. I asked Nanny Li to prepare some gifts. They were given to me by the late emperor when he was alive. Now I don't need them anymore, so they're perfect for my unborn grandson."
Lan Qingwu quickly bowed again to express his gratitude.
Empress Dowager Li continued, "Let's have some simple meals here later!"
Princess Yuhua also spoke up, "Thanks to the Imperial Sister-in-law for coming to chat with me, Mother, I don't feel so bad anymore! Imperial Sister-in-law, please stay with me for a while longer!"
Lan Qingwu had no choice but to agree, but she was still a little worried about the Seventh Prince.
Princess Yuhua naturally understood Lan Qingwu's worries. She added, "Sister-in-law, why not bring Xiaoqi to the Cining Palace to have dinner together?"
Empress Dowager Li's eyes immediately flashed with hidden anticipation. Ever since Zhou Qihuai had stolen the Seventh Prince from the Quanhe Pavilion of the Miaoling Palace, Emperor Shenwu and Lan Qingwu had never allowed the Seventh Prince to enter the Cining Palace again. How could Empress Dowager Li not take this matter to heart? Besides, Xiaoqi was so adorable; she hadn't had a proper look at her in years.
Lan Qingwu refused without a second thought, "No need. Xiao Qi has been weak and sickly since childhood. His sleep schedule is completely different from that of a normal child. This time is Xiao Qi's bedtime."
The expectant light in Empress Dowager Li's eyes disappeared again, but Princess Yuhua nodded in understanding.
As expected by Nanny Li, Emperor Shenwu arrived at the Cining Palace in his dragon chariot at noon, and the family of four had a peaceful lunch together.
