From morning until midday, after lunch, there was still no news.
Yundai asked Baoxing to go to the Northern Qi Palace to find out.
After Baoxing went, Tsing Yi said, "Don't worry, my mother, this first child will take longer. Didn't the imperial doctor say that the princess's fetal position is right, it doesn't matter."
Yun Dai smiled and said, "That said, it's production after all. It's not born for a while, which is always worrying. Now we are not only paying attention here, I am afraid that the ruling and the opposition will have ears erected."
Yan'er walked in, greeted her mother, and smiled: "Emperor Meng has diagnosed and said that my aunt is pregnant with a boy, so I don't have any objections to it."
"The slave and maid greet your Highness." Tsing Yi leaned over to salute, knowing that His Highness likes to drink the tongue, so he went out to make tea.
Yun Dai smiled and said, "So Yan'er also cares about this? Yan'er hopes that Princess Beiqi will give birth to a boy or a girl?"
"Erchen thinks that men and women are good."
"Men and women are naturally good, but for Xiao Ziliang, they have different meanings."
"What the mother said is. For the younger uncle, the auntie is the dream."
"You can't force this kind of thing, it depends on God's will." Yun Dai glanced at him and beckoned, "Who combed your hair today? Why is the crown a bit crooked. Come here and the queen will arrange it for you."
Yan'er heard the words and went over immediately, squatting beside her mother's queen.
Yundai took a comb and combed him neatly.
Today he is using a purple jade crown, because he has not yet reached his age to give the crown, his hair is not all combed, and a circle of hair is left underneath, which is draped softly on the back of his shoulders.
"Okay." Yun Dai retracted her hand and said with a smile, "The queen doesn't comb her hair very much. It's unfamiliar. The comb is not as good as the maid in your palace."
Yan'er shook his head: "In Erchen's heart, the queen comb is the best."
Looking at the handsome and tall young man in front of him, Yun Dai couldn't help but think of how he looked a few months old.
She stretched out her hand to touch Yan'er's face and smiled: "Yan'er, it's fifteen this year."
"Yes, my son is fifteen."
"A fifteen-year-old girl is going to give a gift, ready to marry. When are you going to get married?"
"The men of Dazhou are only in their twenties." Yan Er laughed, "I have a few years to come."
"You forgot about the cousin of Hou Mansion, he got married last year at sixteen?"
"The cousin's lady is one year older than the cousin." Yan'er said with a smile, "Cai Cai is still young, don't you often say that girls can't marry too early? You have to spend a little longer in her natal family. Happy days."
Yundai chuckled and said, "The queen didn't say to marry Cai Cai. Cai Cai is only twelve, so don't marry. You have to wait at least three years, after Cai Cai and Jia Cai."
Yan'er was puzzled: "What the queen mother said..."
"In the past two days, the courtiers began to propose to your father, saying that although the princess is still young, you are already fifteen and you can accept your concubine first."
Yan'er frowned: "The ministers are only fifteen, these ministers can't wait to mention these things. Do they want to send their girls into the palace?"
"Does this need to be asked?" Yun Dai smiled, "You are a prince, this kind of thing is impossible to avoid. Even if your father, with such a temperament when he was young, was not forced to take in several concubines?"
"Father, it was different at the time."
"Where is it different?"
"When the emperor was the prince, the emperor's grandfather was not tough enough, and the emperor did not have his mother to protect him."
"You are sweet." Yun Dai smiled, "For this kind of thing, the queen respects your opinion and will never force you."
