Lin Dazhuang's family was overjoyed when they heard the good news.

"It's really Bodhisattva's blessing!

Tomorrow, I'm going to Ling Yun Temple! "Zhang Huiniang said excitedly.

During her stay in the capital, she would often bring her daughter-in-law to Ling Yun Temple in the imperial city to burn incense and pray to Buddha.

Ling Yun Temple wasn't big, but it was filled with incense. Many of the imperial city's family members would go there to burn incense.

Zhang Huiniang would always pray to Bodhisattva to bless Jia Bao and give birth to a man. This time, it really came true!

Zhang Huiniang happily busied herself in the kitchen and cooked a lot of red eggs. Although it wasn't convenient to send them to other families, she still ate with her family.

However, she still ate it with her family. She even asked the housekeeper to give two to each of the servants so that they could share in the festive atmosphere.

Dun Dun was a good child. He had a good appetite and his small body grew quickly.

Just like the nickname Lin Jiabao gave him, he was white and chubby.

Lin Jiabao liked to hug Dun Dun and take a nap with him. He would hum his childhood songs to coax Dun Dun. This was the song Dun Dun liked to listen to before he fell asleep. As long as he listened to this, he would immediately fall asleep.

Lin Jiabao lay in bed for a month and a half before he was allowed to come out of confinement. Xuanyuan Hancheng and Doctor Qian discussed and gave Guai Bao two months of confinement. Guai Bao's body was very well adjusted. His complexion was rosy and his skin was crystal clear. Xuanyuan Hancheng's heart itched when he saw this.

When Xuanyuan Hancheng saw that Guai Bao's body was recovering well, he was completely relieved.

He began to prepare for Dun Dun's two months of confinement. Because Guai Bao's confinement took a long time, the one month banquet was postponed and changed to two months of confinement.

At the Dun Dun's Double Full Moon Banquet, the Retired Emperor also made an appearance despite his illness and bestowed upon him a great name — Xuanyuan Ruiyi.

Just as the grand concubines, grand concubines, and court officials attending the Double Full Moon Banquet were praising the good name that the Retired Emperor had given his eldest grandson, an imperial edict was announced that shocked them even more.

It could be said that Akinori Zhaoshen used his power for the last time to issue this imperial edict: Lin Guijun has done a meritorious deed by giving birth to a prince. She is gentle and gentle, graceful and elegant, respectful and prudent, intelligent and intelligent, straightforward and courteous.

He was immediately conferred the title of Imperial Noble Lord.

Lin Jiabao didn't know about this beforehand, so he couldn't react in time.

The Empress Dowager looked at him with a smile.

"You silly child, why aren't you thanking your father?"

Lin Jiabao was overwhelmed by the favor and knelt down to thank the Retired Emperor for his kindness.

Xuanyuan Hancheng was also very moved. This imperial edict was something that his Imperial Father had discussed with him.

His father was really considerate of him. When he ascended the throne, he had just conferred the title of Imperial Noble Lord on Guai Bao, so he couldn't immediately confer another title on Guai Bao.

However, his father was different. The imperial edict conferring the title of Lin Jiabao was even more convincing to the court officials.

After Lin Jiabao received the imperial edict, the grand concubines and madams all congratulated him. The title of Imperial Noble Lord was the same as that of Vice Empress. It was incomparably honorable.

This lofty status made them endlessly envious.

Concubine Yu also looked at Lin Jiabao with eyes full of jealousy. Imperial Noble Lord … This was a position that she would never be able to achieve in her lifetime.

This Concubine had actually achieved it in just two short years.

Wen Wenqian looked at Lin Jiabao, who was receiving compliments and flattery from everyone, with mixed feelings in his heart.

During the banquet, the Empress Dowager hugged the Dun Dun and refused to let go. "This consort's good grandchild!" The Empress Dowager looked at the white and chubby Dun Dun and had the sudden urge to bring the Dun Dun back to the palace and raise it.

However, after thinking about it, she decided against it. She still needed to take care of the Retired Emperor, and the Jia Bao definitely wouldn't be willing to part with the Dun Dun.

Xuanyuan Hancheng seemed to have seen through his mother's thoughts. He didn't mind letting his mother raise the Dun Dun.

In recent days, this brat had spent too much time with the Guai Bao. He was about to be ranked second.

However, the Guai Bao would definitely be sad. He thought about it and decided against it.

The Dun Dun was still giggling without a care in the world. It didn't know that its father's thoughts had already turned around.

The Dun Dun wasn't afraid of strangers. He laughed whenever he saw people and won the favor of a group of womenfolk in the imperial harem.

Everyone praised him again and again. They all said that the child was handsome and his eyes were big and bright.

He also had a likable personality and didn't like to cry. He was just like the Emperor.

Lin Jiabao was also very happy when he heard everyone say that the Dun Dun resembled him. His smile was very bright.

Everyone's praise for the Dun Dun made him even happier than when they praised him.

Xuanyuan Hancheng loved to see the Guai Bao's smiling face the most. He would never get tired of seeing that happy expression.

After the banquet, the Guai Bao carried the child and Xuanyuan Hancheng back to Pingle Park.

"Guai Bao, let the wet nurse take care of the Dun Dun. You've been carrying him for the whole day.

Your arms must be tired. "Xuanyuan Hancheng saw that the Guai Bao was still carrying the Dun Dun when he returned. He took his son from the Guai Bao's arms.

"It's okay. I didn't feel heavy when I carried him." After he let go of the Dun Dun, he felt that his arms were a little sore.

He unconsciously rubbed his arms.

Xuanyuan Hancheng carried his chubby son and looked at the meat on his small arms. They were like lotus roots.

Xuanyuan Hancheng gently pinched him, and then weighed him up a bit.

"The Dun Dun has gained weight recently."

The Dun Dun moved from his father's warm and fragrant embrace to his father's sturdy chest.

At first, he struggled a little. However, when Xuanyuan Hancheng used his hands to shake him, he stopped. He chuckled excitedly, thinking that his father was playing with him.

After a while, the Dun Dun saw that Xuanyuan Hancheng was no longer moving. He began to cry out non-stop. His small body began to jump up and down in Xuanyuan Hancheng's arms.

"Haha, you little boy." Xuanyuan Hancheng helplessly shook him up and down again, making the Dun Dun chuckle.

"The Dun Dun likes it when you're like this!" Guai Bao said with a smile as he watched the interaction between Xuanyuan Hancheng and his son.

Xuanyuan Hancheng played with his son for a while. When the Dun Dun was tired and fell asleep, Xuanyuan Hancheng handed him over to Shu Ya and asked her to hand him over to the wet nurses to take good care of him.

Ever since Lin Jiabao was conferred the title of Imperial Noble Lord, in addition to Shu Ya and Shu Qin, he added Shu Qi and Shu Hua to his senior palace maids.

He also added four more second-class palace maids.

Shu Ya had a steady and attentive personality, so Lin Jiabao let Shu Ya, Wet Nurse Chen, who was specially sent by the Empress Dowager to take care of the little prince, and the three wet nurses to take care of Dun Dun.

After Shu Ya carried the Dun Dun away, Xuanyuan Hancheng finally had a chance to get close to the Guai Bao.

Finally, the Guai Bao was out of confinement. Xuanyuan Hancheng couldn't wait to be intimate with the Guai Bao.

"Ever since the Guai Bao had the Dun Dun, hubby was ranked last." Xuanyuan Hancheng pulled the Guai Bao to the bedside.

"The Dun Dun is still young. Hubby, don't be jealous of the Dun Dun." Lin Jiabao said softly.

"You know that hubby is jealous, but you're still not thinking of how to compensate hubby … En …" Xuanyuan Hancheng's voice was slightly hoarse as he asked, "Guai Bao … Do you miss hubby?"

Lin Jiabao's cheeks were red. He lowered his head, almost burying it in the quilt.

"Miss …"

"Guai Bao …" Xuanyuan Hancheng hugged the Guai Bao, lifted his little face, and gently kissed him.

"En …" Lin Jiabao cooperated and wrapped his arms around Xuanyuan Hancheng's neck, also responding to him.

After a long time, Xuanyuan Hancheng finally left the Guai Bao's slightly swollen lips. Looking at the Guai Bao's infatuated eyes, Xuanyuan Hancheng couldn't help but deeply kiss him.

After the news of Lin Jiabao being conferred the title of Imperial Noble Prince was announced, the Lin Residence in the Imperial City received many visits and congratulations.

Lin Jiawen was in the Imperial College, and there were also people who took the initiative to come forward and congratulate him.

Lin Jiawen was still with Qian Qingkun and the others. He didn't feel superior just because he had an Imperial Noble Prince younger brother.

He also didn't become complacent because he could flatter and curry favor with some people.

He also became more diligent in his studies. He wanted to win first place in the Imperial Examinations next year so that Jia Bao would have an older brother to rely on.

On this day, the Lin Residence welcomed a eunuch from the Imperial Palace. The Yuan Qing was ordered to bring the Lin Family's women into the Imperial Palace. Zhang Huiniang and the others were very excited and somewhat nervous.

After everyone discussed, Zhang Huiniang brought his daughter-in-law, Wu Qiaolan, into the Imperial Palace. Although his youngest daughter, Xiu 'er, was still young and hadn't reached marriageable age, they didn't bring her along because they were going to the Imperial Palace anyway.

The Imperial Palace couldn't be compared to the temporary imperial residence in Li Zhou. The tall walls and majestic palaces all made people feel solemn and respectful.

Zhang Huiniang and his daughter-in-law, Wu Qiaolan, walked on the spacious palace road, their expressions somewhat nervous.

The Yuan Qing led them to the Imperial Garden. Seeing that they were very nervous, she smiled and introduced them to the Imperial Garden.

"Madame Lin, look, this is the Imperial Garden in the Imperial Palace. Right now, it's the season of flowers.

The Imperial Noble Lady loves the scenery here the most. His Majesty often accompanies the Imperial Noble Lady to walk in the Imperial Garden. "

Zhang Huiniang and Wu Qiaolan looked at the many kinds of beautiful flowers and praised the beautiful scenery of the Imperial Garden.

However, they were in the Imperial Palace after all, so they didn't dare to stay in the Imperial Garden for too long. After looking around for a while, they left.

Wen Wenqian and Concubine Yu were talking in the Imperial Garden. Today, after Wen Wenqian went to pay respects to the Empress Dowager, she 'accidentally' met Concubine Yu in the Imperial Garden and the two of them chatted very happily.

They saw the backs of Zhang Huiniang and the others as they left. They saw that the two of them were led by the Yuan Qing and that they weren't dressed like the wives of officials. Generally, the wives of officials would wear court robes.

"Isn't that the Yuan Qing? Who are these two people?

Have you seen Princess Yi before? "Concubine Yu was somewhat curious.

"I haven't seen these two people before." Wen Wenqian thought about the women in court she had seen before. She really hadn't seen them before.

"Go and ask around." Wen Wenqian ordered Qi 'er, who was beside her.

"Yes."

After about half an incense stick's worth of time, Qi 'er trotted back.

"Reporting to the Princess Consort and Concubine Yu, the two of them were led into Pingle Park by the Yuan Qing.

Later, I found a servant in the outer courtyard of Pingle Park and secretly asked around. I only know that the two of them seem to be the Imperial Noble Lady's family. They are probably his mother and sister, but I can't find out the specifics. "

"Family!" Concubine Yu remembered that she hadn't seen her family members since she entered the Imperial Palace.

"Being the Imperial Noble Lady is indeed different. Her family members can enter the Imperial Palace and can walk around the Imperial Garden openly."

"The Imperial Noble Lady's status is equivalent to that of the Vice Empress. It's naturally a small matter for the Xuan family members to enter the Imperial Palace."

Wen Wenqian spoke slowly. She had a premonition that the Emperor's delay in appointing the Empress definitely had something to do with this Imperial Noble Lady.

"So what if he's the Vice Empress? He's a Shun 'er. Does he want to be the Empress?" Concubine Yu felt indignant. She didn't lose to him in terms of appearance or family background.

"Since the founding of the Xuanyuan Dynasty, there hasn't been a Shun 'er who became the Empress. However, it's hard to say in the future." Wen Wenqian instigated without batting an eyelid.

"The Empress Dowager likes the Imperial Noble Lady so much. Now that she has the Eldest Prince as her precious grandson, then in the future …"

"Isn't it just a son? I don't even know if he'll grow up." Concubine Yu had just blurted out when she realized that her words were wrong.

"Princess Yi … I …"

"Concubine Yu, you have to be careful with your words. I know that you didn't mean what you said, but if someone else heard it, I'm afraid …" Wen Wenqian's tone was still as gentle as ever.

"Princess Yi, you know me. I really was just saying it. I didn't mean it …" Concubine Yu nervously begged Wen Wenqian for forgiveness.

"Concubine Yu, don't worry. I know what kind of person you are." Wen Wenqian comforted Concubine Yu.

Concubine Yu felt relieved after hearing her words. Seeing that it was almost noon, she bid farewell to Princess Yi and left.

In Pingle Park, Zhang Huiniang and Wu Qiaolan were chatting with Lin Jiabao about their daily lives.

"Mother, Jia Bao really missed you!

When you came to the capital this time, I was pregnant with my Dun Dun, so it wasn't convenient for me to leave the palace to see you.

Now that I'm done with my confinement, when my Dun Dun is a little bigger, I'll beg the Emperor to take me out of the palace to see you.

How are you doing in the capital?

Are you used to living here?

Is everything going well at home? "Lin Jiabao couldn't help but ask his mother and sister-in-law repeatedly when he saw them.

"Jia Bao, how can you leave the palace as you please?

Don't make things difficult for the Emperor.

We're doing very well in the capital, so you don't have to worry.

Your older brother is also studying in the Imperial College, so everything is going well at home.

How about your delivery this time?

Did you take care of your body during your confinement? "Zhang Huiniang was still most concerned about Jia Bao's health.

"The delivery this time was very successful. Dun Dun is a good child, he didn't make me suffer." Lin Jiabao said to his mother with a smile, his voice filled with sweetness.

"The Emperor had me do two months of confinement again, and my body has also been taken care of very well."

Zhang Huiniang was very relieved to see that Lin Jiabao was doing as he said.

Wu Qiaolan saw that her second brother's complexion was even better than the last time she saw him in the temporary imperial residence. She saw that Jia Bao's skin was white with a tinge of red, and his body was slightly rounder.

After having a child, Lin Jiabao's entire temperament had changed. Looking at the current Jia Bao, Wu Qiaolan could only think of four words — — gentle as jade.

Lin Jiabao said to Shu Qin, who was standing beside him: "Go see if Dun Dun is awake. If he's awake, bring him over."

"Yes." Shu Qin complied and withdrew.

Not long after, Shu Qin and Shu Ya returned. Wet Nurse Chen walked in front with the Dun Dun in her arms.

When the Dun Dun saw Lin Jiabao, he squeaked. These days, the Dun Dun was already able to recognize people.

What he loved the most was his father's embrace. Now that he saw his father, he wanted to be hugged.

"Dun Dun … … Daddy's good baby!

Mother, look, this is the Dun Dun, he's very fat, haha. "Lin Jiabao took the Dun Dun in his arms and kissed his chubby little face.

"Mother, come hug him."

"Dun Dun, let grandma hug him … … he's really a fat boy.

He's so sturdy! "Zhang Huiniang hugged the Dun Dun and was very happy," This child really looks like you! "

"That's right!

He really looks like Jia Bao!

In the future, he'll definitely be a handsome boy. "Wu Qiaolan praised from the side.

The Dun Dun was in Zhang Huiniang's arms. Seeing this kind looking old granny coaxing him to play, he also cooperated and giggled.

Everyone was very happy.

After that, Lin Jiabao invited the two of them to have lunch together. In the afternoon, he reluctantly sent off his mother and sister-in-law.

After leaving the palace, Zhang Huiniang and Wu Qiaolan excitedly returned home and shared with their family what they had seen and heard in the palace.

Zhang Huiniang praised the Dun Dun again and again, and his happy mood infected everyone in the family.
