Traveling through time and space and becoming a deposed prince, he just wants to survive!
Chapter 100 Fetal Heart Sounds
After Zhao Sheng settled his personal troops and had his meal in the cafeteria, he said goodbye to Zhao Zhen and went to the Princess Luancheng's Mansion.
Li Shuya is already pregnant, and this time Zhao Sheng has been away for nearly three months, and the princess's figure has changed significantly.
Hearing that Zhao Sheng had returned, Li Shuya was happy, so with the help of her personal maid, she planned to walk to the front hall.
"Shuya, why are you coming out when you're not feeling well?"
Halfway through, Zhao Sheng saw his wife about to leave her dormitory and greeted her from a distance.
"Husband, I heard you're back. I haven't seen you for a long time, so I just wanted to come and see you."
Li Shuya is a relatively strong person. After marriage, she called Zhao Sheng "husband" only a few times. This is probably a sign of a mature woman.
Mr. Zhao was not surprised, but stepped forward to support Li Shuya's body. She was only five months pregnant, but her figure was so prominent that it looked like she was nine months pregnant.
"Have you seen a doctor? Could it be twins?"
Seeing Zhao Sheng concerned about her belly, Li Shuya smiled and said, "The doctor only said that my body is stable and there is nothing wrong. However, the midwife helped me feel it and said that it is not yet due and she can't feel it."
"Unexpectedly?" Zhao Sheng immediately thought, "Will it be ripe?"
But soon this sentence flashed through my mind, and I wondered where my bad taste came from. However, since the baby is not full-term yet, I should be able to hear the fetal heartbeat.
"Lamei, go find a foot-long purple bamboo and break through the middle joint..."
Lamei was Li Shuya's maid. Zhao Sheng asked her to find Zhuzi while he planned to listen to the fetal heartbeat.
While the two were sitting and talking, Zhao Sheng used a piece of bamboo to make something similar to a bowl.
"My Lord, Zhuzi is here."
The purple bamboo that Lamei brought was as thick as a thumb. Bamboo was hard to find in this season, but he had purple water bamboo in his own yard.
"Well, not bad," Zhao Sheng took the bamboo. He first used a dagger to dig a hole in the middle of the bowl-like thing, and then inserted the purple bamboo into it.
The other end of the bowl-like object was wrapped with silk, stretched tight, and tied firmly to fix the joint of the purple bamboo.
The two people in the house didn't know what he was doing. After Zhao Sheng finished all this, he gently pressed on Li Shuya's belly, letting La Mei listen to the sound in the bamboo.
"My dear husband, I heard a dong dong sound, but what does it mean?" The maid was confused after hearing it.
"You follow my method and hold on to the bamboo below while I listen."
Zhao Sheng did not explain, but asked the maid to do it in his own way so that he could hear it.
Although the principle of this method of listening by transmitting the microphone is simple, it is not easy to distinguish twins.
"Yes, I heard it. My wife is probably pregnant with twins."
Li Shuya was both amused and confused when she heard this. She didn't know what to say to the man in front of her. Zhao Sheng could brazenly say things that even doctors couldn't judge.
"Okay, husband, stop teasing me."
"I'm not teasing you, ma'am." Zhao Sheng put down the things in his hand and explained, "I'm holding a sounding tube. Veterans in the army can use this method to hear cavalry from miles away by keeping close to the ground."
After hearing what Zhao Sheng said, Li Shuya also remembered that it seemed to be recorded in military books.
"Do you think you're remembering something? What I'm hearing is called fetal heartbeats. The baby in your belly already has a heartbeat, one heartbeat for each baby."
"Is it true? I seemed to hear a thumping sound just now. Is that the young master's heartbeat?" The maid La Mei was a little excited and quickly interrupted and asked.
Zhao Sheng looked at the winter plum blossoms beside him. This was Li Shuya's dowry. According to the rules of that era, she could be a concubine, but it was a pity that she was too young.
She was about the same age as Zhao Zhen, and she really couldn't bring herself to do it.
Li Shiyuan didn't know the reason behind this and thought that Zhao Sheng would be worried about something. She hinted at it many times, but Zhao Sheng didn't move.
"From now on, you must listen carefully and consult a doctor or midwife regularly. Pay special attention to the position of the fetus."
When Zhao Sheng said these words, the two women in the room widened their eyes, feeling that the man in front of them seemed to be very experienced.
"Could it be that my husband has given birth to a child?" Li Shuya couldn't help but ask...
There was heavy snow in the north, so King Zhao Hong of Yue ordered people to transport some dried seafood and local specialties to the palace.
The maternal clan of the King of Yue was the Wang family, a large clan in Taiyuan. Later, the Wang family also established a clan temple in Jiangxi. As the power of the King of Yue grew stronger here, people from the main clan in Jiangxi also came to send visiting cards.
Sending gifts to the imperial palace every year has been the Fourth Prince's habit for many years. One reason is to maintain contact with the palace, and the other is to make his presence felt in front of the emperor.
He gave the impression to those in the court that the King of Yue was capable of governing his fiefdom and enriching the people and strengthening the country.
I feel that this thing needs to be in a specific environment and once it is triggered, people will only feel it. If you make something a normal thing, everyone will take it for granted.
Zhao Hong is such a person, stupid, rich and easily deceived.
However, Zhao Heng's fiefdom in Chuzhou eventually sold the dock port on the river to the Cao Gang at a high price, and it was an unfinished dock port.
When Tang Ming of the Cao Gang made the purchase, many people didn't understand, and some even thought he was afraid of Zhao Heng.
However, no one knew that Tang Ming's move would raise the status of the Cao Gang in the underworld to a higher level in the future.
Another month has passed since the New Year. Plants have revived in some places in the south, but it is still winter in the north.
The policy adopted by Luancheng in Dingzhou County was to build high walls, store up grain, and not claim to be king.
Many things were exchanged through barter and silver, with grain being the hard currency.
The condiments from Luancheng became a scarce commodity around Dingzhou County. Even though the five major families tried to crack it, they were unable to match its taste in the end.
"Sir, this New Year, we have stockpiled a large amount of condiments and protein meat. These things are almost delicacies enjoyed by the nobility in the remote grasslands."
Zhao Sheng listened to a group of businessmen who went home for the New Year and gathered in Luancheng to talk about their experiences of the year. Zhao Hu couldn't help but say.
It is obviously inappropriate to talk about this kind of thing in front of these businessmen, especially those from the five major families.
At that time, when the seasoning production in Shigang Village was becoming more mature, the two places needed a responsible person, and Zhao Sheng took a fancy to Zhao Hu.
I thought Zhao Hu would be as cautious as his brother, but I didn't expect that after three glasses of wine, he didn't even pay attention to his words.
"Erhu, today is a gathering for everyone, not a commendation meeting."
Erhu is Zhao Hu's nickname. Zhao Sheng calls him by his nickname in front of outsiders. There is something hidden in his words. If Zhao Hu still doesn't understand what Zhao Sheng means, it seems that he will have to change someone else.
Zhao Hu saw that Zhao Sheng looked unhappy and directly greeted him with his nickname. Although he was a little drunk, he became much more sober.
"Ahem!" Zhao Hu was a little embarrassed. How could he take back what he had said?
"You guys, you just got out of poverty a few days ago, and you think you are gentry. You are still far from being rich!" Zhao Sheng did not show any mercy to Zhao Hu and directly mocked him.
"Young Master is right. I had two taels of silver under my pillow during the New Year, and I started thinking about taking a concubine. I am a little ignorant of what is good for me."
As soon as Zhao Hu said this, some people present blushed, and those who had selfish motives instantly felt like they were caught in an affair.
Indeed, some of these people already have covetous eyes towards the production formulas in the workshop. If these things are mentioned again, they will inevitably become agitated again.
