Traveling through time as a peasant girl to turn things around

Chapter 413: The Queen and the Emperor's Daily Life of Raising a Child

Lucy: "I'll feed the child." The Emperor: "I'll feed our daughter, you feed our son." Lucy: "This time it's my daughter's turn to breastfeed. We agreed that they would take turns breastfeeding from me every day." The Emperor: "Queen, what do you want me to do? We agreed that I would feed our daughter and you would feed our son." Lucy: "Today it's our daughter's turn to breastfeed, you feed our son with formula." The Emperor had no choice but to take her son and feed him formula. Lucy wanted her daughter to breastfeed, but the nurse said breast milk was better, and you could raise your own children yourself. No matter how tired she was, the Empress would never rely on anyone else and asked the Emperor to fire the wet nurse. The Empress learned her dominance from the beautiful nurse, and more importantly, from Yang Yang. She had been there for over ten days, and through observation and influence, she had picked up some of the ways of the people there.

The Emperor held his son in his arms and ate multiple meals a day. After he finished handling memorials, he would return to the Empress's palace, where he slept every day. He would only rest and sleep in his own palace if there was an emergency at the border or a disaster in the area, as he was always busy at night and didn't want to disturb the Empress's rest. That was a very rare occasion!

Lucy nursed her daughter, a motherly smile on her face. She kept smiling. The radiance of motherhood made the emperor's heart flutter! He calmed down in his heart. The queen was in confinement after giving birth. "Ye Heng said that the emperor's sister-in-law had a dangerous caesarian section this time, so she needs to keep the baby for a few more months!"

The emperor never took his eyes off his son and fed him carefully. After feeding, he patted his son's back gently. Lucy had taught him that. Lucy said, "Put your son on the bed. He needs to sleep. Children need more sleep to keep their bodies and brains healthy." The emperor had no choice but to put his son down. "Okay." Lucy said, "In a few months, when he's a little older, you should hold him more. When he cries, hold him, don't expect others to do it for you."

The Emperor: "Okay, I'll hold one even when I go to court." Lucy: "Okay, that's what you said." "Well, my word is final!" Lucy chuckled!

The emperor put his son down, looked at Lucy and then at her daughter in her arms. She was so small, her smiling face was rosy because she was sucking hard, so cute, and she could tell she was a beautiful girl at such a young age. Lucy saw that the emperor was staring at her chest, and said shyly, "Your Majesty, why don't you go to deal with things! Review memorials!" The emperor: "It's okay, I asked Chai Xiangyu and several young people to handle some simple things. They formed a cabinet team. The important ones are left for me to review! This is the method my younger brother taught me. Isn't this easy. And our son is guarding the military camp outside the capital, and he is in charge of 100,000 soldiers. Although Fengxing has to take leave to take care of Guoguo, I have someone to use. I am much better now." Lucy knew that Guoguo's situation was indeed like this, "Guoguo is pregnant with three babies this time. I am afraid that her belly is so big. She walks slowly, and Fengxing has to support her for fear that she will fall. She is about to give birth, In these few days." The emperor was happy: "Our Ye royal family is inseparable from Guoguo." Lu Xi: "Yes, my daughter is a talented person. She saved Xiaodong and indirectly saved me, and this time she helped me give birth to a child. If it weren't for her this time, we, mother and son, would have died." The emperor nodded seriously, it was true, "Yes. Guoguo is not only our lucky star, but also the lucky star of the Great Yan Kingdom. Now the people of the Great Yan Kingdom are much better off. There are not many bad reports submitted from all over the country, and there are almost no people starving or freezing to death in various places." After a pause, the emperor said, "I will ask the imperial kitchen to send food quickly for you to have another meal." Lu Xi asked the maid to go. They were all her trusted ones. If they were not in a good mood, they would be expelled from the palace. Those who stayed were trustworthy. The old nanny personally brought the food, "Your Majesty, it's time to eat. Today's soup is stewed with old hens. It's nutritious and there are some vegetables." Lu Xi: "Good!"

……

The emperor returned shortly after leaving. Seeing his son, daughter, and Lucy all asleep, he sat outside, reading and drinking tea. He enjoyed a peaceful and tranquil moment, as if returning to his childhood, a warm and peaceful place.

Until a loud cry disrupted the peace. The emperor hurriedly stood up and went into the inner room. It was his son who had woken up crying. He untied the small blanket he was holding and said, "Oh, he peed!" The emperor already knew how to change diapers. He easily put on a clean one and tucked his son in. The nanny had already mixed the milk powder and handed it to the emperor. The emperor expertly fed the child, even testing the milk to see if it was feverish. It was warm, just right for a child!

The emperor watched as his son ate without even opening his eyes, and then went to sleep! The emperor said, "Hey, this brat!" He didn't even glance at his father. Lucy's daughter slept soundly in his arms, having eaten her fill.

The emperor smiled and went outside.

Chai Xiaoyan spent her time in the palace reading, strolling through the courtyard, and sometimes making clothes for her children. She was pregnant and about to give birth. The imperial physician, Chen Jun, came twice a day to take her pulse and ensure both mother and child were well.

Yan'er looked at Chen Jun and asked, "Uncle Chen, can you tell me whether I'm pregnant with a boy or a girl?" Chen Jun: "No, we can only tell you whether it's healthy! You and the baby are fine, don't worry, Princess." Yan'er: "Yes. I like both boys and girls. Are my brother and sister-in-law okay?" Chen Jun: "They are all fine. Three of my disciples are living in the Chai Mansion, don't worry." Yan'er: "Yes. My parents are not here. I don't know when they will be back?" Chen Jun: "When they come back, I'll tell them to come to the palace to see you!" Yan'er: "Yes, okay." Chen Jun: "I seem to have heard that your mother is about to give birth." Yan'er: "Yes, I know. It will be in these few days." Chen Jun: "Princess, you should call yourself this palace!" Yan'er laughed: "Uncle Chen, I'm talking to you alone, there are no outsiders. Let me be casual." Chen Jun laughed! "People in our Chai Mansion are all casual, good, good! I am worthy of watching them grow up! Uncle is going back, find someone to pass on the message if you have anything!" Yan'er: "Yes, okay." Chen Jun turned and went out.

In his free time at the Imperial Hospital, Chen Jun would observe the medical techniques there, and even took notes. He kept them to himself. He had learned a great deal here. The Emperor allowed Chen Jun to observe freely! This was a great convenience, benefiting the Great Yan Nation!
