The wives of the concubines are empresses

Chapter 385: Empress's Pregnancy Oolong

Shangguan Wanjun was very much looking forward to the upcoming summer hunt, and she even mentioned it during lunch.

"We're leaving for summer hunting soon. If you have anything you want to bring, remember to prepare it early to avoid being late and causing unnecessary trouble."

Mei Fei - Hu Siyang smiled and joked: "Your Highness is going to bring some recipes, as well as writing brushes, inkstones, and paper."

"If you bring a recipe, then you also need to bring some seasonings and other things, otherwise it will be useless."

"Your Majesty is right. This is exactly what I think."

Concubine Yun - Zhao Yunfan sighed: "Your Majesty suddenly said this, and I really can't remember what to bring at the moment."

Shangguan Wanjun smiled gently, pursed her lips, and looked up at him: "It's not particularly urgent, it's still two or three days."

An Yong frowned. "My beautiful concubine, please bring the recipes and seasonings. How about I bring the pots, pans, and utensils?"

When everyone heard this, their faces changed at the same time. Who would bring pots, pans, and utensils separately when going out? Aren't they all brought by everyone?

Shangguan Wanjun smiled awkwardly but politely: "General, there are actually many useful things. You can think about it carefully."

An Yong, who reacted suddenly, also looked embarrassed: Oh, it's really troublesome to go out to escape the summer heat and hunt. It's much easier for them to march and fight.

Looking at his expression, Shangguan Wanjun knew what he was thinking.

"To put it bluntly, we're just going there to eat, drink and have fun. We're not bringing anything with us. Do you think we're going to march and fight, or to travel the world with swords?"

Meifei, Hu Siyang and the other two concubines couldn't help laughing when they heard what the emperor said. What the emperor said was really interesting.

General An Yong scratched his head and said, "I am wrong, but my wife, I am just a rough man, what can I bring?"

Shangguan Wanjun took a sip of seaweed and egg soup and said, "Why not bring more sweet potatoes, potatoes, and taro?"

"Ah, bring food?"

"You're silly! Besides cooking, we can roast potatoes and sweet potatoes. We can also wash them, boil them, and dip them in chili sauce. It should be delicious too."

"So, radish and carrots?"

"You don't have to worry about that. White radish can be eaten raw. If that doesn't work, then find a vacant lot and sow the seeds there. You'll be able to eat white radish for a few days before you leave."

"What about carrots?"

"Why bring so many carrots? You and I are not rabbits. Are you going to chew them on the way?"

"If that's the case, I don't mind."

When General Anyong thought of himself eating carrots, he found it funny and shook his head.

"Forget it, I will just bring you the things the Emperor mentioned."

"You don't have to be so rigid. You can bring something that interests you. We're here for fun anyway, so if we're going to have fun, we have to have fun."

General Anyong nodded solemnly: "My wife is right. I will have people start making preparations as soon as I get back."

Listening to everyone's interesting discussion, Landa Jun-Lanaxin was also thinking in his heart what he could bring.

After lunch, Shangguan Wanjun, who was full and satisfied, began to feel sleepy again. She temporarily left General An Yong behind, and everyone else took their leave one after another.

Looking at his brothers leaving, General Anyong picked up the light-as-a-swallow Shangguan Wanjun by the waist and walked straight to the bed in the side hall.

"Wife, since you are so tired, I will not bother you any more. I will just take a quiet nap with you."

The noise in her ears made her frown, and she muttered to stop it.

"Shh, be quiet."

"Okay, okay, wife."

He gently placed Shangguan Wanjun on the bed. The rude General Anyong automatically became gentle in front of her. He took off her shoes and socks, laid her flat, and then carefully took off the hairpin, step-shake, pearl flowers, earrings and rings from her bun, and finally her clothes.

When he finished all this, he was so tired that he was sweating.

General Anyong took off his tight clothes, went to the side and washed his feet with the prepared foot-washing water, and sprinkled some spices in it to fumigate his feet, for fear that his military general would sweat easily and fumigate his delicate body.

After he finished all this, he went to bed refreshed and couldn't stop looking at the person sleeping soundly.

My daughter-in-law is so beautiful. She is so fragrant, soft and gentle that I can’t get enough of looking at her. She is much prettier than the tall and strong girls in their border area.

Realizing someone was approaching, Shangguan Wanjun slapped General An Yong right on his muscular chest. It wasn't painful, but it felt more like a tickle.

After Shangguan Mucang finished his meal with the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace, she was asked to stay for an afternoon nap. The Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace, who was in her forties and had little sleep every day, woke up early and went to the side hall to visit the eldest prince who was taking a nap.

Nanny Li looked at the sleeping person and smiled: "Empress Dowager, look at the eldest prince sleeping so soundly."

"That's right. This child looks the same every time I see him. If I hadn't seen him for a long time, I wouldn't even recognize him."

Shangguan Muchang turned over and continued to sleep, his little mouth pouting so adorable that the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace and Nanny Li were heartbroken.

"Look, from around 48 to 9 years old, this is the most adorable time. Just like when the princess was 7 or 8 years old, she would wear a beautiful and exquisite dress, with the palace maids combing her hair into a beautiful bun and adding a headband, and then let it flutter in the wind outside, looking so beautiful."

The long-awaited summer hunting trip arrived. Shangguan Wanjun set off with her body, which had been asked for several times by Concubine Wu last night. The bumpy road made her almost doubt her life.

"Lianhua Ouhe Muxiang, this trip is really not easy. I feel like I'm going to get dizzy." She felt dizzy and a little nauseous.

"Stop the car, I can't take it anymore, hurry up, I'm going to vomit." It was rare for her to leave the hospital, and although it was still within the capital, her body really couldn't take it.

Ouhe quickly looked at Guard Li and asked him to stop the carriage and the teams in front and behind.

Lianhua prepared a spittoon, and Muxiang prepared water and a handkerchief waiting for Shangguan Wanjun to vomit.

Shangguan Wanjun felt nauseous, and Lianhua quickly stroked her chest.

"Your Majesty, do you feel like vomiting?"

Shangguan Wanjun vomited all the breakfast she had eaten that morning, and finally felt completely normal.

"Let the main force rest for a while, or else we'll tire ourselves out before we even reach our destination."

Lianhua nodded respectfully: "Yes, Your Majesty, I will go and check the arrangements right away."

With Shangguan Wanjun's oral instructions, many of the female relatives who were accompanying them were finally able to take a break. However, there were also some rich and wealthy young men who did not exercise often and suffered from vomiting and diarrhea.

Shangguan Wanjun frowned upon learning about the physical conditions of those noble young men. "Vomiting and diarrhea? Is it this serious? How come these two are even more fragile than me? This won't do."

When the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace learned that Shangguan Wanjun had vomited, she thought it was good news. She arrived at her destination and immediately asked the imperial physician to take her pulse and examine her.

Seeing her mother's mouth corner that couldn't be concealed, Shangguan Wanjun frowned.

"Mother, I am fine, what are you looking at?"

"What's good about that? Didn't you vomit? If you get pregnant, it will affect your offspring. This is a big taboo."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wanjun looked up in shock and stared at the other imperial husbands.

"Mother, I have only given birth to a child a few months ago. How can I get pregnant and give birth so soon? It would be bad for my health."

The imperial physician looked at her with regret and said, "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, the Emperor is not pregnant."

"Mother, look, your sons all said no." The other princes felt disappointed when they heard this. They thought one of the brothers was going to be the father, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding.

Watching her mother leave in disappointment, Shangguan Wanjun sighed helplessly. Fortunately, she had given birth to four children, otherwise, at her current age, she would have been pushed into a state of chaos.
