Chapter 940 An Immense Blessing
Chapter 940 An Immense Blessing
As Song Ruozhen finished speaking, Chu Junting and the others stared at her in a daze, unable to come to their senses for a moment.
"Zhen'er, are you telling the truth?"
A look of disbelief flashed in Chu Junting's eyes. He pulled Song Ruozhen along, his voice trembling slightly, his expression revealing both excitement and worry.
Twins are already very difficult, but triplets must have to endure so much suffering.
Looking at Song Ruozhen's slender figure, and thinking that she was pregnant with three children, he couldn't even feel joy at the moment.
Song Ruozhen nodded, "It's true. I didn't expect three children to come right away."
The imperial physician standing nearby was filled with amazement. "My medical skills are no match for the Crown Princess's. I could only conclude that there was more than one child. I never expected that the Crown Princess could directly determine that there were three children."
"Your Majesty, twin births are already extremely rare, but triplets are even rarer. It is truly an immense blessing!"
When the emperor heard about the triplets, a look of astonishment appeared in his eyes, which then turned into extreme joy.
He was already worried about Chu Junting's temperament. If he were to ascend the throne in the future, given his personality, he feared that there wouldn't be many people in his harem.
This makes having offspring a major problem.
However, he did not expect his daughter-in-law to be so amazing, giving birth to triplets in one pregnancy. This kind of blessing is not something that ordinary people can have.
It seems his previous decision was indeed correct!
Putting aside Jun Ting's abilities, his good fortune alone is unmatched by any other prince!
"My God, triplets! I've never encountered anything like this before!"
The Queen was completely stunned at this point.
She used to feel envious when she heard about people carrying twins.
On the one hand, it was because one could give birth to two children at once, and on the other hand, everyone believed it was an auspicious omen.
As for triplets, she had never heard of them before, and even she, who was usually calm, couldn't help but show a look of amazement.
Not only the Queen, but everyone present who had heard about the triplets was shocked.
"Many people have been saying that the Crown Prince has been married for some time now, but the Crown Princess has not yet conceived. Could there be some problems?"
After all, the Crown Prince had been on the battlefield for a long time and had been injured quite a few times; he might have been injured again.
Now it seems the Crown Prince truly is a man of few words, yet when he does speak, he astounds everyone, hitting three questions right away!
Consort Liu was dumbfounded and didn't know what to say.
She had observed Xiao Wang's attitude over this period of time and knew that he had given up the idea of competing with Chu Junting.
At first, she found it hard to accept, but now she has gradually gotten used to it. Now that she sees that the Crown Prince is not only exceptionally talented in fighting, but also in having children, she has nothing to say.
"If the Crown Princess gives birth to this child, it will be a truly joyous occasion."
"Congratulations, Your Highness, and Congratulations, Your Highness the Crown Princess."
Whether they were happy or not, all the concubines now had smiles on their faces.
Lu Minhui looked at Chu Junting, who was frowning beside her, and couldn't help but reach out and pat him. "What are you standing there for? Are you so happy you've gone crazy?"
Seeing Chu Junting's stunned expression, Song Ruozhen couldn't help but chuckle. "Didn't you always hope that we could have a child soon?"
"I do hope to have children soon, but I'm wondering if it will be too hard for you to carry three children?"
Chu Junting had never paid attention to these things before, but since getting married, he couldn't help but listen more when he heard people around him say that his wife was pregnant.
He had heard that it was already very difficult to be pregnant with just one child, but he had never heard of anyone being pregnant with three children.
Upon hearing this, Lu Minhui exchanged a glance with the Empress. Sure enough, this young man was a romantic at heart.
After a brief moment of joy, he began to worry about his wife. However, pregnancy is already difficult for a woman, let alone three children.
"Ruozhen, let's go to the Empress Dowager's palace first."
The Empress held Song Ruozhen's hand, treating her like a precious treasure, constantly telling her to slow down and be careful not to fall.
"If I had known you were pregnant, I wouldn't have let you go to Consort Duan's place."
The Empress couldn't help but regret it. Consort Duan was gone today, and she was murdered. This was not a good thing. What if it frightened Ruozhen's three grandchildren in her belly?
"Mother, don't worry, I'm fine, and the children won't be affected either."
Looking at Song Ruozhen's calm and composed demeanor, Lu Minhui couldn't help but say, "Ruozhen, I'm not surprised at all by your appearance. Did you already know you were pregnant before?"
Ruozhen could calculate it even before she was pregnant, so she must know even better if she were pregnant herself, right?
Chu Junting couldn't help but recall that Ruozhen had said yesterday that she was inconvenient. At the time, he only thought it was her period, but now that he thought about it carefully, the timing didn't quite match up.
So the inconvenience she mentioned was because she was pregnant?
Song Ruozhen smiled slightly and did not hide anything, "I did notice it before, but there is still a lot of time before I get pregnant, so I want to wait a little longer."
"Why didn't you tell me?" Chu Junting frowned slightly, feeling worried, but fortunately nothing had happened recently.
Ruozhen had previously exhausted her energy to help Gu Huan'er, and now she is pregnant with three children. How can people not worry about her?
"There must be a reason why Ruozhen isn't telling you. Why are you yelling at her?"
The Empress glared at Chu Junting, her expression full of displeasure. "Let me remind you, Ruozhen is pregnant now. You must not anger her under any circumstances, do you understand?"
Chu Junting pointed to himself in surprise, "I didn't mean to Zhen'er."
His wife is so pampered that he can't bear to be mean to her.
"Then you should speak more softly in the future." The Empress's attitude remained unchanged. "Ruozhen is already suffering from pregnancy, and you are so busy all the time, you already owe her a lot."
"What if he continues to speak so rudely and frightens Ruozhen and my precious grandson?"
The Emperor smiled broadly, "Your mother is right. You'll be a father soon, so you must treat Ruozhen well."
"Your subject obeys."
Chu Junting bowed, his expression revealing a hint of helplessness, but mostly a smile.
He felt his heart was completely filled; he not only had children, but three of them!
He needs to find an opportunity to have a serious talk with the Prince of Yun. That kid used to tease him about not being good enough, but he's not bad at all, he's incredibly good!
Lu Minhui was overjoyed, feeling that she had made the right decision to come today.
If I hadn't gone to the palace today, I would have missed such a joyous occasion.
"Someone, go and fetch more bird's nest and other tonics to nourish Ruozhen properly."
The Empress hurriedly ordered people to prepare, "Being pregnant is not only hard on the body, but also easy to get tired, especially as the months go by, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep well."
Go and get the finest Shu brocade, and make several new quilts for Ruozhen..."
