Chapter 894: The Emperor And Empress Perford The Worship Together
To be honest, it was a challenging task for her to control her appetite.
She was not anxious about gaining weight. Being an ectomorph, she did not have to worry about overeating, but she wanted to prepare herself for smooth childbirth in the final stage.
Long Yang’s fingers probed her stomach, but he did not notice anything different. Glancing her over, he said, “Isn’t it almost the sa as before?”
“Is it? But I feel that it’s gotten bigger than how it was a few days ago.” Lu Liangwei rubbed her belly. She had looked in the mirror that morning and found the bulge had indeed grown bigger. “Maybe you don’t notice it because you’re with every day.”
Long Yang stroked her head a little helplessly. “Even if it has gotten bigger, what does it matter?”
Lu Liangwei sighed. “It doesn’t. I just wanted to know.”
Seeing the conflicted expression on her face, Long Yang paused, then said, “There’s a thod to asure if your belly has grown.”
“What thod?” Lu Liangwei was curious, but thinking that he was referring to a asuring instrunt, she quickly shook her head. “But I’ve never asured my bump ever since it started showing, so even if I asure it now, I won’t know if it’s gotten bigger or not. It should be easier to tell when it gets bigger after so ti.”
“Co with .” Long Yang took her hand without explaining, but his tone was firm.
They returned to the bedchamber, and Long Yang closed the doors behind them.
A mont later, Lu Liangwei said in exasperation, “Is this the thod you were talking about?”
Long Yang cast her a dark, enigmatic glance before pulling his hand out from under her dress.
The smooth and delicate touch under his palms almost made him lose his mind.
“Yes,” he whispered huskily. What he did not say was… he knew every inch of her body like the back of his hand.
Ever since she got pregnant, he would use his hands to asure her stomach every now and then.
Therefore, he knew better than the girl herself whether or not her stomach had grown bigger.
They were outside just now, so he naturally could not do the asuring through her thick layer of clothing.
Lu Liangwei adjusted her dress, her cheeks warm. “So what’s the result of your asurent? Is it bigger than a few days ago?”
Long Yang pulled her closer, lowered his head, and whispered a few words in her ear.
Lu Liangwei flushed and scolded him internally.
The Emperor was such a rogue!
He said that her belly had indeed grown bigger compared to a few days ago, as well as a certain other part of her body.
She took a deep breath, concealing her embarrassnt, and reminded him with a pout, “Didn’t you say you had important things to do in the imperial study? You should go.”
Suppressing his inner desires, Long Yang said solemnly, “Yes, I do have so things to sort out for the Lantern Festival tomorrow. Get so rest, then. I’ll be in the imperial study.”
Lu Liangwei’s face was still hot as she watched him leave. Thinking of sothing, she hurriedly looked down.
It seed that they had really grown in size.
However, it was normal for won to beco more buxom when they were pregnant.
She comforted herself.
…
The Lantern Festival was one of Great Shang’s major festivals. On this day, both the common folk and the imperial family would hold various ritualistic events.
It was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, which marked the first full moon of the New Year, and the people of that era attached great importance to it.
On this day every year, the imperial family would host a grand Moon Goddess Ritual Event where the Emperor and Empress would lead the court officials to worship at the altar.
That evening, Lu Liangwei got ready early and put on the Empress’s ceremonial dress.
When it was getting dark, Long Yang ca and led her to the eting hall to et the court officials before setting out for the altar.
The altar was just southeast of the palace.
In previous years, Long Yang had led the court officials to worship the Moon Goddess alone, but now that he had selected an Empress, it was only natural that they perford the worship together.
