Chapter 307: Results

God bless, the Queen must give birth to a prince this time…

He Xiang and his friends had never been so pious in their lives as they were today.

The other side.

Yao Zhi started the attack at night. Ye Shuo was sleeping at that time. Hearing the movement on the other side of the bed, Ye Shuo was awakened almost instantly.

Ever since Yao Zhi entered the third trimester of pregnancy, he had been living in fear all day, preparing for such a day. After a brief panic, Ye Shuo quickly calmed down.

The more time passed, the calmer Ye Shuo became.

Yao Zhi’s water had just broken, and the formal delivery process had not yet begun. Ye Shuo first entrusted the sleeping Ding Ning to Xiao Luzi. Then Ye Shuo, without bothering to get dressed and only wearing underwear, carried Yao Zhi to the side hall, to the delivery room that had been prepared long ago.

“Someone, come here!”

“Hurry up and call the midwife and the imperial physician over!”

Following Ye Shuo’s roar, the palace guards on duty outside reacted and quickly became busy.

Xiao Luzi had been trained in these things early on, so following Ye Shuo’s orders, everyone in Chengming Hall followed suit.

Ye Shuo seemed to be in good order, until the sweat on his chin fell onto Yao Zhi’s face, and then Yao Zhi realised that he was not as calm as he looked.

“Don’t be nervous, there’s no need to be nervous. I’m fine, right? Besides, I’ve checked it myself before, and I didn’t find any problems. Just let me go. Within two hours, I will definitely–“

However, before Yao Zhi could finish her words, Ye Shuo covered her mouth.

“No! Please, don’t set a flag!”

Before Yao Zhi could figure out what he meant by “Flag”, Ye Shuo was quickly driven out by the beautiful woman who had hurried over.

Although they are husband and wife now, the young man’s presence here is really a nuisance.

Ye Shuo wanted to say something else when he saw Yao Zhi shaking her head at him. Ye Shuo took a deep breath, fed Yao Zhi a bowl of ginseng soup, and left. �

The beautiful woman was stunned to see how skillful his movements were.

As if she had seen what her master was thinking, Yao Zhi couldn’t help but say, “He has been taking care of Dingning these days.”

The beautiful woman felt that her disciple had a pretty good life. Although she had many setbacks in her childhood, she finally found someone worthy of spending her life with.

So…

“You must hold on for a while, and don’t let your daughter and your man end up being taken away by someone else.”

The beautiful woman spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

When Yao Zhi thought about the handsome young man calling others ‘sister’ as if they were her, acting like a spoiled child to others, or sharing the same watermelon with others, being affectionate and loving, and sleeping on the same bed with others, her teeth almost broke.

“He dares!”

“That’s right.” No matter what, it’s always better to have a goal.

Although the beautiful woman’s medical skills were not very sophisticated, they were sufficient to deal with general situations. With her around, ordinary evil spirits could not get close to Yao Zhi, so Yao Zhi just had to focus on giving birth.

The other side.

Ye Shuo was outside, listening to the noise inside and feeling quite uneasy. Seeing this, Queen Mother Wei first tried to comfort him, but seeing that it seemed to be of no use, she let him go.

In the middle of the night, little Dingning woke up and found herself in Xiao Luzi’s arms. As for her parents, they were nowhere to be seen. The little girl couldn’t help feeling a little panicked.

“Daddy, Mommy…”

Hearing the child crying, Ye Shuo took a deep breath, then stood up and returned to the main hall, and took his daughter from Xiao Luzi.

Children are naturally sensitive, and they seemed to have sensed something, and subconsciously grabbed Ye Shuo’s sleeve.

Although Dingning is only two years old now, the child is smart and can basically understand what adults say, so Ye Shuo did not perfunctorily comfort him, saying: “Dingning, be good, mother is giving birth to a younger brother or sister, and they will be out soon, Dingning, don’t cry, okay?”

Although Ye Shuo was not very reasonable with other people, he was very reliable and safe in the eyes of the little princess. After a while, the little princess really stopped making trouble.

“Dingning will accompany Daddy…together…”

The child finished speaking haltingly, and Ye Shuo couldn’t help but kiss her head gently: “Okay, Dingning stay with Daddy.”

After a while, Empress Dowager He also arrived.

Ever since Queen Mother Wei came to power, Empress Dowager He has not appeared in public often. After all, according to seniority, Queen Mother Wei should have been her mother-in-law. As a result, now both of them are empress dowagers, and it is inevitable that it would be a bit awkward for them to meet.

It was not until later that Empress Dowager He gradually realised that Empress Dowager Wei and the Emperor really did not care about these things, and she gradually relaxed a lot.

Sure enough, the late emperor was not wrong at that time. He was indeed a generous person.

Empress Dowager He first bowed to Ye Shuo, and Ye Shuo hurriedly returned the greeting: “Sister-in-law, please sit down first. I am sorry for being rude, but I hope you will not mind.”

The young man couldn’t hide the anxiety on his face, so how could Empress Dowager He blame him?

“Your Majesty, you are too kind.”

Soon, Empress Dowager He sat next to Empress Dowager Wei.

Empress Dowager He had seen scenes like this before at the Empress’s coronation ceremony. After so many years, the two of them have not changed at all. It’s really enviable…

At the same time, Concubine Sun believed that she was not qualified, and she did not dare to show off with her current status, so she just knelt in front of the Buddhist shrine in her palace and prayed devoutly, hoping that the gods and Buddhas would bless the Queen and allow her to give birth safely.

Whether it’s His Majesty or Her Majesty the Queen, good people should have a peaceful life.

About half a cup of tea later, when Princess Zhaocheng walked in and saw this scene, she did not say a word, but knelt down quietly with her mother, clasped her hands together, and was extremely pious.

“May the Buddha bless my aunt and keep her healthy and successful.”

Then, the mother and daughter bent down and kowtowed almost at the same time.

Time passed little by little, accompanied by all kinds of noises in the delivery room. Ye Shuo finally couldn’t bear it any longer and found all the relics left by Emperor Jingwen, including the string of Buddhist beads that he always held in his hand.

Normally, Ye Shuo doesn’t believe in ghosts and gods, but in this situation, it doesn’t hurt to believe in them.

About an hour later, a loud cry was heard from the delivery room. The tense feeling in Ye Shuo’s heart suddenly relaxed. His legs went weak and he almost fell down.

Fortunately, Xiao Luzi, who was standing nearby, took action in time and no one noticed.

“Dingning, be good and wait for daddy with Eunuch Lu first.”

Ye Shuo handed the child to Xiao Luzi, and then he walked straight forward: “How is Ah Zhi?”

Ye Shuo couldn’t see anything through the gap in the screen, and subconsciously wanted to step in. However, almost instantly, he was stopped by the beautiful woman.

“Azhi is fine. She just fell asleep due to exhaustion. Don’t worry. But the midwife is cleaning her body now, so it’s not convenient for you to go in.”

Seeing that he had become so impulsive without her noticing, the beautiful woman waved her hands hurriedly.

Ye Shuo: “What’s the big deal?” The beautiful woman was taken aback by the surprise. When she reacted, she still shook her head: “You don’t care, why don’t you ask Zhi’er if she cares?”

“Well… okay.” Ye Shuo could only take two steps back unwillingly.

Then Ye Shuo remembered to ask about the child: “Where is the child? Is the child okay?”

As they were talking, Empress Dowager Wei and Empress Dowager He came forward, supported by their maids.

“The child is also very healthy. Although the child is a little smaller than an ordinary baby, the child is fine.” This can be seen from the loud cry just now. He is really full of energy.

“Just what?” Ye Shuo’s heart, which had originally been relieved, was once again hanging high.

“Is something missing? An arm missing? Or are legs and feet not working?” In an instant, countless bad thoughts popped up in Ye Shuo’s mind.

“It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter. I am the emperor. Even if my child has a disability, it doesn’t matter. I can still take care of him for his whole life and ensure that he will have no worries for the rest of his life.”

After being interrupted again and again, the beautiful woman’s emotions, which had just been building up, suddenly became shattered.

“…No.”

“It’s just that it’s a princess again this time.”

Although the beautiful woman was in the palace, after so much time had passed, she had already known that Prime Minister He and the others were eagerly looking forward to a prince. However, she was afraid that they would be disappointed this time.

The beautiful woman didn’t think that being a princess was a bad thing, but she couldn’t help but worry about her disciple’s future.

The moment the words fell, the expressions of Empress Dowager Wei and Empress Dowager He became complicated. The complexity of Empress Dowager Wei was that if she didn’t have a son, her son would suffer more, and the complexity of Empress Dowager He was that at this moment she couldn’t tell what she was feeling in her heart.

From the perspective of a loser, she wanted the emperor and the empress to be good to her, because if they were good, she would become better as well. But if they were really too good, Empress Dowager He would feel a little uncomfortable when she thought of her husband and son.

However, when he looked at Ye Shuo again, he stretched out his hand hastily: “Where’s the child? Bring her here for me to see.”

Soon, the small swaddling clothes fell into his arms. Seeing this scene, Dingning stopped. Due to the natural possessiveness of a cub, little Dingning, who was only two years old, instinctively felt angry.

It was as if her territory was being invaded. After all, who wouldn’t want to monopolise the love of her parents?

Seeing that her eldest daughter’s expression seemed a little bad, Ye Shuo hurriedly took one in each hand. Fortunately, he was strong and didn’t care about the weight.

Although Dingning was still unhappy about this, at least the noise wasn’t as severe.

Ye Shuo thought for a moment and said, “Since the second child is also a princess, then let’s call her An Ning.”

Changle and peace are also excellent meanings.

She didn’t know if it was an illusion, but the beautiful woman always felt that he had prepared this in advance.

But no matter whether it was prepared in advance or not, after seeing that he was still very happy, the beautiful woman gradually put her mind at ease.

Ye Shuo was happy, but He Xiang and the others were not so happy.

As soon as the hour of Mao passed, news spread from the palace.

“How is it, is it a boy or a girl?” Looking at the person who came, He Xiang asked this question almost tremblingly.

Seeing this, the prime minister’s eldest son, who was also pulled over to pray to the gods, couldn’t help but start recalling whether his mother had ever mentioned when she was alive whether his father was as nervous as this when his mother gave birth to him?

I always feel that it should be… not.

Although the old prime minister looked at him like this, the established facts could not be changed by a small pawn like him, so when Prime Minister He was about to burst into tears, the visitor said:

“To reply to the Prime Minister, it is… a princess.”

Finished…

He Xiang’s eyes went dark.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Then, the entire Prime Minister’s Mansion was filled with the eldest son’s anxious cries: “Father, father, what’s wrong with you? Someone, please call the imperial physician!”

When it was time to go to court, half of the leaders claimed to be sick and did not come. The seats of Prince Jin and Prince Su were also vacant. I guess they must have been in a lot of trouble after the ups and downs of their moods all night.

Ye Shuo pretended not to see it and finished the morning court very quietly. In just a quarter of an hour, everything was dealt with. As soon as Ye Shuo announced the adjournment of the court, he returned to Chengming Hall.

At that time, Yao Zhi had already woken up. Looking at the little baby at the head of her bed, her heart was filled with joy.

Although the second daughter was not as fair as the eldest daughter, her facial features should be pretty good.

“An Ning…huh?”

When Ye Shuo brought Xiao Dingning over, this was the scene he saw.

This scene was happiness for Ye Shuo, but not necessarily for Xiao Dingning.

Little Dingning ran to his mother, tilted his head to look at her, and called out sweetly, “Mom.”

Yao Zhi’s attention was subconsciously drawn to this talking person.

Ye Shuo: “…”

Wait, something seems wrong…

But…it must be my illusion…

At this moment, the little baby seemed to sense something, opened his eyes, and started crying loudly.
