Chapter 44: (1/2)
It was the first time that Ye Shu really felt the other party's existence after trying the little boy for so long.
He put his palms on his lower abdomen, holding his breath unconsciously.
As if feeling his father's movements, the little kid in his belly moved again. That force is very shallow, like the paw of a kitten, twitching in Ye Shu's palm across the abdomen, it doesn't make people feel uncomfortable, but it's very novel.
Ye Shu's voice trembled in surprise: ”He, he, he—he really moved!”
Jin Wang was also very surprised.
Ye Shu was almost four months pregnant with the baby, and he was already a little bit pregnant. It's just that the winter clothes are thicker and you can't see it. If you change to the light summer clothes, you can clearly see that the originally flat abdomen bulges a small arc.
Jin Wang stretched out his hand to put it on, as if he was afraid of disturbing something, he put his strength very lightly.
However, there was no movement in his belly.
Ye Shu frowned and said, ”You move, didn't you move just now?”
Still nothing happened.
The two stood in a stalemate for a moment, Ye Shu raised his eyes to look at Jin Wang, and said seriously: ”He is afraid of you.”
”...” Jin Wang couldn't laugh or cry, ”Is it so scary?”
Ye Shu nodded: ”Yes.”
Jin Wang: ”...”
”Fine.” Jin Wang said, ”Go to bed, it's too late.”
Ye Shu was still a little unwilling.
However, no matter whether he coaxed or frightened, or even wanted to get out of bed and walk twice, the little boy in his belly stopped moving. Ye Shu was tired and sleepy, so he had to give it up for now.
Jin Wang hugged Ye Shu and lay down, and the latter quickly died out.
Perhaps because of something on his mind, Ye Shu didn't sleep well tonight, with his eyebrows frowned, turning over in Jin Wang's arms from time to time. Jin Wang worried that he would press his stomach, clasping the opponent's waist and pressing him into his arms.
Ye Shu leaned back in Jin Wang's arms, and gradually stopped moving under the comfort of the other party.
Jin Wang's hand naturally fell on Ye Shu's abdomen.
Ye Shu's waist is slender, even if she is initially showing her bosom, it is not too obvious. Jin Wang put his palm on Ye Shu's lower abdomen and touched it gently.
Suddenly, there was a slight fluctuation in the skin under his palm.
Jin Wang opened his eyes in astonishment.
It was an indescribable strange feeling. He clearly felt that there was a fresh, small life under his palm, which was slowly growing.
And this little life is the blood of him and Ye Shu.
Jin Wang couldn't help but touched the bulging belly again. The little boy in his belly seemed to be completely awake now, moving around in Ye Shu's belly, extremely restless.
”Um...” Ye Shu seemed to be a little uncomfortable being disturbed, frowning and moaning.
Jin Wang whispered, ”Don't move around, go to bed.”
As if Jin Wang's deterrence had worked, the fluctuations under his palm quickly stopped.
...... Is Gu Zhen so terrible?
Jin Wang reflected in his heart.
Ye Shucha turned over again at this moment, got into Jin Wang's arms, rubbed his head in his arms: ”Don't make a noise...”
”Well, don't bother you.” Jin Wang touched his hair and said warmly, ”Go to sleep.”
No dream for a night.
When Ye Shu woke up the next day, Jin Wang was indeed no longer in the hall.
The palace man walked in with the toiletry supplies, Ye Shu couldn't help but ask: ”Last night... Did you find anything weird?”
The girl in a palace costume was rolling up the bed tent, and she was taken aback for a moment: ”The maidservant had been guarding outside the temple last night and did not find any weirdness. What does the son mean?”
”……It's nothing.”
It seemed that Jin Wang really did what he said, and left before dawn.
Ye Shu sighed, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable.
The palace man pushed open the window opened and closed by Jin Wang last night. Several eunuchs outside the courtyard were busy holding red silk lanterns.
The end of the year is approaching, and the servant will now begin to arrange the palace.
Everyone became busy during this night, and this deserted deep palace also had more New Year atmosphere.
Ten days are fleeting, and on New Year’s Eve, His Majesty the Monarch hosted a banquet in Fangxuan Building to entertain hundreds of officials.
When Ye Shu arrived outside Fangxuan Building, all the officials had not yet arrived.
Outsiders in Fangxuan Building came and went, Ye Shu was helped by the servant, and he got off the imperial court. He raised his eyes and saw a figure standing outside the hall.
It's Xiao Huan.
Xiao Huan walked over with a smile and bowed to him: ”I have seen the imperial concubine.”
Ye Shu returned the gift.
After a few days, the youth's complexion looked worse than before. It can be seen that in the past few days, the dog emperor did not let him go because of the approaching new year.
Xiao Huan sighed in his heart and looked at the other party with a trace of sympathy.
There was no one paying attention here, Xiao Huan took a step forward and asked in a low voice: ”How has the imperial concubine thinking about these days? Don't forget the agreement with me.”
Ye Shu naturally did not forget.
Not only did he not forget it, but because of this, he thought about it day and night, and every day he could sleep well.
Before Ye Shu could answer, Jin Wang's voice came from behind: ”What are you talking about?”
Ye Shu was frightened by him and turned around quickly: ”Your Majesty, Your Majesty...”
Jin Wang naturally hugged people over: ”The banquet is about to start, and go upstairs with Gu.”
”Yes……”
Jin Wang ignored Xiao Huan who was still standing by, and walked straight towards Fangxuan Tower with his arms around Ye Shu.
Xiao Huan showed displeasure, but did not dare to say anything. With a cold snort, he turned and walked towards the side door where the officials entered the hall.
Fangxuan Tower is the tallest building in the imperial city. Jin Wang pulled Ye Shu up to the tall building and supported it on the fence, looking at the entire imperial city covered with ice and snow.
At sunset, the sky will be dark, the red lanterns hanging around the palace are already lit, and lanterns and festoons can be seen everywhere.
Ye Shu didn't have much thought to appreciate the scenery.
He carefully looked at the people around him, inexplicably guilty.
I don't know if Xiao Huan's words were heard by this person.
Jin Wang's expression looked the same, but this person has always been happy, anger, and colorless, which doesn't explain much.
Sure enough, Jin Wangyouyou asked: ”What did Xiao Huan say to you just now?”
Ye Shu turned away suddenly, and said in a low voice, ”No...nothing.”
Jin Wang kept silent, watching him quietly.
He looked calm, but there seemed to be something extremely deep hidden in his eyes, and Ye Shu's spine was cold.
After a while, Jin Wang calmly retracted his gaze: ”Come in.”
As night falls, singing and dancing rise to peace.
The ministers pushed their cups and changed their cups, and they all enjoyed themselves.
Jin Wang couldn't see any abnormality tonight, and was considerate to Ye Shu as usual, except that he obviously drank more alcohol than before. Before long, a pile of wine jars fell by the feet.
