Although Mu Yangling had been reborn, she still did not believe in such a mystical thing. That said, she was much more respectful of ghosts and gods now.

Mu Yangling thought for a moment and said, “There’s no need to drink this talisman paper. I’ll bring Little Bear to various temples to pray in a while.” However, she already believed 80% of the imperial physician’s diagnosis. Since it was because of his talent that his speech development was delayed, she would just wait for him to grow up slowly. Praying to God and Buddha was just to seek peace of mind.

Mu Yangling placed Little Bear on the couch and tapped his nose. “Good son, we’re not in a hurry. We’ll wait for you slowly, okay?”

Little Bear was playing with logs with sweat all over his head and was in no mood to pay attention to his mother. When he heard this, he only nodded perfunctorily.

In Qi Haoran’s eyes, his son was really adorable.

In Qi Haoran’s eyes, his son was naturally good in every aspect. Therefore, he really wanted to detain the two pediatricians and let them stay in Qiannan to serve his son. However, he thought about how Little Treasure’s health was not good either. Now that the two best pediatricians in the Imperial Institute of Medicine had come to him, what if Little Treasure had a headache and fever?

Therefore, although he was reluctant, when the emissary who came to announce the decree set off, Qi Haoran still waved his hand to send the two imperial physicians back.

As soon as they left, Bisha Miao stockade sent a message. Their deal with Dali was set for April 8th, so they would start setting off in two days.

Qi Haoran got Mu Yangling to pack up and said, “Just say that I went out to patrol the borders and check on the training of the various guards. I’ll be back in a month or two. I’ve already made arrangements in the army. Other than Zijin and Advisor Qian, no one knows that the commander’s seal is in your hands. You have to be careful.”

Mu Yangling nodded. “Be careful too. If something goes wrong, come back quickly.”

Qi Haoran nodded and went to hug Little Bear before leaving.

As soon as Qi Haoran left, Mu Yangling closed the door and refused guests. In the eyes of outsiders, it confirmed the news that the Prince was patrolling the border. News of this flew to the various passes at the border. Knowing that their superior was coming to patrol, they couldn’t help but feel tense.

However, Mu Yangling only closed the door to refuse guests because Little Madam Xia was pregnant.

As soon as Qi Haoran left, Mu Yangling wanted to go to the fields to take a look. Now that the spring sowing had ended, she wanted to take a look at the growth of the crops. After all, this was the first time the people here planted corn and Dry Rice No. 1.

However, before she could go out, a nanny rushed over from the corner door and exclaimed in high spirits, “Your Highness, our Madam is pregnant! Quickly go over and take a look!”

Mu Yangling was momentarily confused. Seeing that the maidservant was smiling so widely that the wrinkles on her face were squeezed together, she finally said, “She’s pregnant?”

“That’s right, that’s right.” The maidservant clapped her hands and said, “Our Madam has been feeling sleepy these past few days and even felt a little sore this morning. Nanny Xia felt that something was wrong, so she sent for the doctor to take a look. The doctor diagnosed that she’s pregnant.”

Mu Yangling was delighted. “This is good news. Does your master know?”

The maidservant was all smiles. “I haven’t had the time to inform the Duke yet. It’s because Madam vomited so much that she can’t eat anything, so I came to beg Your Highness to think of a way.”

Mu Yangling immediately turned around and said to Spring, “Hurry up and invite Imperial Physician Wang to the Duke’s residence.” She turned around and carried Little Bear through the corner door to see Little Madam Xia.

Little Madam Xia was indeed vomiting badly. She lay on the couch with a pale face and was almost spitting into a spittoon. However, everyone in the room was overjoyed. It could be seen how enthusiastic they were about Little Madam Xia’s pregnancy.

Only Nanny Xia was happy and worried. “Why is she vomiting so much?”

Mu Yangling also felt that she had vomited too much. If she couldn’t eat anything like this, how could she keep the fetus healthy?

She patted Little Madam Xia’s back and said, “Imperial Physician Wang is on his way here. I’ll ask him to take a look at you.”

Little Madam Xia said gratefully, “Thank you, Ah Ling. If not for your tips, I don’t know when I would have gotten pregnant.”

Little Madam Xia touched her stomach and whispered, “This child was conceived that day.” Her face was red as she lowered her head after saying that.

Mu Yangling didn’t expect it to be so accurate, that Little Madam Xia would conceive on her first try. She said in a low voice, “It’s still early days. You have to be careful. When I was pregnant, Mama Wang was the one serving me. Do you want me to lend her to you for a few days?”

Little Madam Xia hesitated. “Nanny Xia has given birth before, too.”

Mu Yangling patted her hand and said with a smile, “You can make the decision yourself. I’ll get the imperial physician to write a prescription for you later. It’s not a good idea to keep vomiting like this. Be careful not to hurt your stomach.”

Little Madam Xia nodded.

However, Nanny Xia privately found Mu Yangling and begged her to borrow Mama Wang for a few days. She said, “I heard that Her Majesty and Your Highness were both served by Mama Wang during your pregnancies. Our Madam has severe morning sickness. Although I’ve given birth before, that was decades ago and I only gave birth to one child. I really can’t compare to Mama Wang. Please take care of Madam, Your Highness.”

Seeing that Nanny Xia was sincere, Mu Yangling nodded and said with a smile, “Then I’ll get Mama Wang to come over and serve her for a few days. We’ll talk about it after Cousin-in-law’s pregnancy stabilizes.”

Nanny Xia bowed gratefully and thanked her.

Just as Imperial Physician Wang finished prescribing the medicine, Fan Zijin rushed back from the military camp. This was the first time Fan Zijin had abandoned his work and ran back. Seeing this, Mu Yangling pursed her lips and smiled. She patted Little Madam Xia’s hand and said with a smile, “Rest well first. I’ll send Mama Wang over to you when I get back.”

Then, she stood up, bowed to Fan Zijin, and said with a smile, “Congratulations, Cousin.”

Fan Zijin did not even spare her a glance, his gaze riveted upon Little Madam Xia.

Mu Yangling smiled and held Little Bear’s hand. On the way back, she said to Little Bear, “Son, you’re going to have a younger brother to play with. Are you happy?”

Little Bear shook his head and gestured with his hands to express that he preferred to play with his older brother. After saying that, he looked a tad glum.

Mu Yangling stroked his head and said, “Do you miss Brother? Then let’s send him something when we get back and write him a letter, okay?”

Little Bear’s mood instantly soared. He held Mu Yangling’s hand and ran home. He didn’t know how to write, so every time he wrote a letter, Mu Yangling had to do it for him.

Although this child did not know how to speak yet, Mu Yangling understood his intentions with just a few gestures, hence communication was not a problem.

Back in the study, Mu Yangling asked someone to grind ink and lay out paper while calling Mama Wang over.

Mama Wang had always been Mu Yangling’s head of internal affairs, but this time, she decided to lend Mama Wang to Little Madam Xia, which showed how much importance they attached to Little Madam Xia’s pregnancy. “When you get there, don’t worry about anything else. Just focus on Cousin-in-law’s food, rest, and pregnancy. When her pregnancy is stable, you can come back.”

Mama Wang bowed and agreed. Typically, a fetus would be stable after three months. Now that Little Madam Xia was more than a month pregnant, she only needed to go over for 40 days. Coupled with the fact that the two residences were close, Mama Wang only had to pack a simple luggage before going over.

Mu Yangling lowered her head and held Little Bear’s hand as she wrote a letter to Little Treasure. At the spot where one was supposed to sign off their name, Little Bear was unwilling to leave the word “Little Bear”. He lay on the desk and took out a piece of paper, then pointed at the words “Qi Wenjin” and looked at Mu Yangling eagerly.

Realizing that her son wanted to show off his proper name to Little Treasure, Mu Yangling couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
