Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1904

Nanny Zhang shuddered and fell to her knees. She stared at the ground, her voice trembling, "Reply, reply Your Majesty, the young master sleeps very well, but... but sometimes he has to hug the cloth tiger to fall asleep..."

I regretted it as soon as I said it - how could I tell such trivial matters to His Majesty?

But Emperor Zhaowu chuckled and asked, "Is your child a picky eater?"

"No... not too picky." Nanny Zhang's forehead was covered with cold sweat. "The young marquis has a big appetite and is growing fast. He enjoys eating everything. He just doesn't like carrots. I have to chop them up and mix them with the meat. Or I can simmer carrot cubes in chicken broth..."

She spoke softly and her voice trembled more and more.

It was not until Eunuch Xiaoshuzi returned to the yard carrying the sleeping child that Nanny Zhang came to her senses and hurriedly bowed and thanked him.

"This child is quite heavy." Xiao Shuzi weighed the little marquis in his arms and said softly, "It's hard for you to hold him. After a while, you may not be able to hold him anymore."

Nanny Zhang agreed, and when she realized the meaning of the words, her face turned pale, "I can hold you up, I have endless energy!"

Is this going to be her turn? Her heart tightened and she couldn't help but panic.

Not to mention how honorable this job is, just because of the trust that the lady has in her and the affection she has shown in bringing up the young master since he was just an infant, she would never be willing to be separated from the young master.

Nanny Zhang reached out her hand to take the child back, but found that Eunuch Xiaoshuzi did not hand the child over.

When Master Xiao Shuzi saw that she had misunderstood, he winked at the attendant, who understood and immediately took out a set of items from the lacquer box and presented them to her.

"The Emperor gave the wet nurse Zhang—" Eunuch Xiao Shuzi said in a serious tone, "a pair of silver scissors with cloud patterns and a medicinal jade scraping board. He also gave ten kilograms of Chinese yam, which can be cooked with polished rice to strengthen the spleen and stomach."

Nanny Zhang quickly knelt down and raised her hands high to receive the reward.

Xiao Shuzi then carried the child into the yard, and Nanny Zhang quickly stood up with the reward in her arms and followed to lead the way.

After everyone left, Nanny Zhang looked at the sleeping young master and was surprised to realize that she had actually received a gift from the emperor.

Looking at the child's jade-like face, I found it even cuter. Her dense eyelashes were like butterfly wings, casting two faint shadows on her eyelids. There was still a little glittering saliva hanging from the corner of her mouth, and she was sleeping soundly.

The next day, Nanny Zhang reported the emperor's reward to the lady in detail. Only then did she know that not only she was rewarded, but the two little princesses' wet nurses also received the same gift.

After a night of worry, she finally put her mind at ease. Aunt Zhang was always worried that if she was the only one to receive the reward, she would become the target of public criticism in the mansion and be envied and excluded.

Shi Anxia also saw the emperor's intentions in these rewards. It was not gold and silver ingots or pearl hairpins or jewelry that dazzled people's eyes, but just a few practical things.

Silver scissors can be used to cut clothes, jade plates can be used for scraping, and yam can be used to cook porridge. Everything is practical and will not give people any reason to criticize you.

She once again went to express her gratitude to Emperor Zhaowu in person on behalf of the wet nurses.

Emperor Zhaowu said, "On the day my sister gave birth, I was also at your house watching them come into this world. I have a connection with these children and we are very close. From now on, I will take care of them and raise them, and wish them a smooth life."

At that time, An Xia bowed solemnly, her sleeves spread out like clouds, "Your Majesty, I am terrified and don't know how to repay your Majesty's kindness."

Emperor Zhaowu wanted to reach out and help her up. But in the end, he retracted his hand and said, "My sister, please stand up. My sister and your husband are honored people to me."

Shi Anxia stood up slowly and stood with his head lowered.

The gentle voice of Emperor Zhaowu rang in his ears, "I still remember that day when you came to me with a bulging belly to apologize for the matter of Eunuch An."

Shi Anxia really didn't dare to take credit for this matter, "It was my sister who offended me."

Emperor Zhaowu shook his head. "If you hadn't stopped it in time, who knows how much trouble Eunuch An would have caused. As I sit high on the throne, those around me are most likely to make mistakes." He paused, then added, "Lingzhou nearly caused chaos, and it was only because of my sister's quick thinking and decisiveness that Lingzhou was saved..."
