Chapter 477: Chapter 477: Can We Still Talk Properly?_1

An Jing felt somewhat averse to the words of the Emperor of Xiyun; clearly, the Emperor wanted her to bear a son for her husband. However, in her view, sons and daughters were the same, both being the children of her and her husband.

Before Ke Anjing could speak, Xiao Changyi glanced sideways at the Emperor of Xiyun and said, ”I want a daughter only.”

Emperor of Xiyun: ”...”

An Jing secretly rejoiced in her heart. Husband, well countered!

The Emperor of Xiyun fell silent for a long while before finally sitting down beside Xiao Changyi and spoke earnestly, ”Yi Er, your thoughts are incorrect. Who would complain about having too many children? Who wouldn’t want a son? Who——”

Before the Emperor of Xiyun could finish his sentence, Xiao Changyi interrupted, ”Me.”

Emperor of Xiyun: ”...” Can we even have a proper conversation anymore?

An Jing held back her laughter. Husband, you make me so happy with your retorts.

The Emperor of Xiyun, feeling aggrieved, looked at Xiao Changyi for a long time before his shoulders slumped and he said, ”As you wish. Now that your wings are hard, I can’t control you anymore. As long as you’re happy, that’s good.”

An Jing: ”...” As if you ever managed to control my husband...

After the Emperor of Xiyun left, An Jing praised her husband continuously, ”Husband, you were fantastic! You left the emperor speechless with your retorts!”

Her husband indeed had the talent for silence with just a sentence.

Xiao Changyi said, ”Don’t take his words to heart. Our child, be it a boy or a girl, I will love them the same.”

An Jing smiled beamingly, ”I never took his words to heart. Even if you didn’t say it, I know that no matter whether I give birth to a son or a daughter, you will be equally delighted.”

”Mhm,” Xiao Changyi set down the white jade teacup he was holding and leaned in, closer to her.

An Jing immediately kissed him on the lips with a smack.

Xiao Changyi felt it wasn’t enough, so he simply kissed her back thoroughly, not stopping until they had enjoyed a long kiss.

At the hour of Wei, Fang Shicai arrived, took An Jing’s pulse, and then respectfully reported, ”Judging from the princess’s pulse, the pregnancy is very stable. However, as the months are still few, it is hoped that the princess will continue to be extra cautious.”

An Jing nodded, then asked, ”Would my body be suitable for a carriage ride? My husband and I are planning to go back home.”

Fang Shicai said, ”If it’s a hurried journey, of course not, as it shouldn’t be too bumpy; if the carriage travels slowly, it would be possible.” He paused, ”To prevent any mishap on the road, I would suggest that the prince and princess take an imperial physician with them to accompany you on the journey.”

An Jing nodded again, having no further questions, she let Fang Shicai leave.

As soon as Fang Shicai left, An Jing said to Xiao Changyi, ”Husband, let’s set off for home the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow, I would like to see Wuyu again. Now that we’re going back, who knows when we will see her again.”

”Mhm.”

...

On the second day, at the hour of Si, Li Wuyu was summoned to Fenghua Palace.

As soon as Li Wuyu saw An Jing, she first congratulated her on her pregnancy, and then complained, ”Master, so you can have children after all. Why didn’t you tell me earlier? If I had known, I would have defended you whenever I heard others saying you could not bear children! You have no idea how uncomfortable it makes me feel every time I hear people say Master can’t have children!”

”Yo yo yo, my loving concern as a master isn’t wasted on you, as you even know how to worry about me,” An Jing laughed while pulling Li Wuyu to sit down.

As soon as Li Wuyu sat down, she said, ”Of course I worry about you, Master. Hearing from my father that you are pregnant, I’m truly happy for you. If it had not been for my inability to casually enter the palace, I would’ve come to see you sooner to congratulate you.”
