As the three of them hesitated, they saw a bulge appear on the belly and pressed against Xuan Ling's palm.

"Mother, the baby is...high-fiving Father!"

"Really?"

Sheng Xiyan raised her head and saw that the small handprint had moved to the right again, pressing lightly on her abdomen, as if to say, "Father, please don't lie! We heard it, and Mother and Big Brother are witnesses."

Xuan Ling sighed, and a smile that he had never had before appeared on his face, a kind of nervousness and helplessness of being a new father.

Looking at Sheng Xiyan, he said solemnly, "Yanyan, let fate decide. I believe our child can shoulder the heavy responsibility."

The position of crown prince is related to the country and the people, it is extremely important. However, Xuan Ling, a wise monarch who values ​​state affairs above all else, is acting so impulsively at this moment.

Sheng Xiyan's eyes became hot and tears welled up in her eyes. She knew that he did this because he loved her.

Xuan Ling coaxed, "Yan Yan, I have a feeling this child is very unusual."

He patted his belly again and said, "Baby, what I just said is the promise made by your father to you, but it all comes down to your thoughts. No matter what you do in the future, your father and your mother will support you."

The baby in the belly put its hand into its mouth and sucked it, and seemed to be moved, so it closed its crossed legs.

Since my father and mother are so looking forward to my arrival, I will go out. They seem to love me very much. I was born in a happy and loving family.

Now I feel relieved.

"Ah! Here it comes!" Sheng Xiyan screamed. Xuan Ling just looked down and saw a soft thing crawling out by itself.

When Xuan Ling touched the baby, he found his body was sticky, slippery and soft.

"Someone! Bring me a small blanket!"

Hua Xia and the wet nurse ran in holding the baby.

The nurse cleaned the baby quickly and said, "It's a prince!"

Xuan Ling kept staring at the child intently. He had black hair, fair skin, and a delicate figure. He had his eyes closed and looked relaxed and contented.

"Father, the baby is indeed bigger than the younger brother Yanyan who was born just now. He is the right older brother."

"Let me see." Sheng Xiyan shouted.

Xuan Ling took the swaddling clothes from the nurse's hands and looked at the baby with sharp eyes. "Are you Ling Ling?" Absolutely. Otherwise, why did you insist on me promising you the position of crown prince before you came out?

You are planning something bad, aren't you?

Sheng Xiyan said happily, "He looks very independent, so he's suitable to be the older brother, and Yanyan the younger brother. By the way, Your Majesty, what's your other name?"

Xuan Ling reached out and stroked the baby's face, his eyes unconsciously filled with love, "Yu Chen, Chen Chen, the same word as your title."

Perhaps it was destined that this child would inherit his legacy.

"Chenchen, I'm your elder brother Jiangjiang. Please wake up soon and look at me, father, and mother." Jiangjiang touched his little feet.

Chenchen opened his eyes slowly, and the first thing he saw was a man's face that was slightly majestic and extremely handsome. Is this my father?

He smiled at Xuan Ling unconsciously.

Xuan Ling felt as if his heart was touched, and Chenchen's innocent smile dispelled his previous doubts.

"Yanyan, Chenchen also has a small dimple on his cheek, just like yours."

Jiangjiang took a closer look. "My mother and I have dimples on the right cheek, and Chenchen has one on the left. I wonder if Yanyan and Zhaozhao have dimples!"

Sheng Xiyan smiled and said, "Of the three children, Chenchen looks the most like the emperor. Yanyan looks a little more like me, and Zhaozhao is about half and half, with his nose and mouth resembling the emperor's."

After she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a little scared. Could it be that the one who looked most like Xuan Ling was Ling Ling?

Xuan Ling lowered his head and kissed Sheng Xiyan's forehead. "They all look beautiful. All three children are our treasures. Thank you, Yanyan, for giving me such a happy moment. You have worked hard."

He handed Chenchen to the wet nurse to be carried down to feed, and helped Sheng Xiyan lie down, "Baby, you can sleep well now, no matter how long you sleep."

She was really a little sleepy and felt very tired. Sheng Xiyan closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep.

Outside the hall, Eunuch Fu announced.

"God bless our dynasty. The Imperial Concubine has given birth to two princes and a princess. The Emperor will not hold court for the next ten days. He will be caring for the Imperial Concubine during her confinement. At noon every day, anyone with a certificate may report to the Emperor."

The court officials and concubines kowtowed and said, "Congratulations to the Emperor, and to the Imperial Concubine on the birth of your son. Long live the Emperor!"

Empress Duan clenched her fists in her sleeves, and thought of Doctor Wang again. She became flustered and broke out in cold sweat.

The concubines kneeling behind her whispered, "Noble Concubine Chen actually gave birth to two princes and a princess, and both mother and child are safe. This is incredible!"

Gao Guiyi and Lin Jieyu said excitedly: "Ah, now we can be godmothers!"

In the dungeon of the Ministry of Punishment, Doctor Wang was hung on the rack with iron chains, and the blood dripping from his ten fingers clamped the sticks, forming a dark stream on the blue bricks.

When Minister Zhang crouched down and sneaked in, he stepped on a severed finger with his boot and was so frightened that he almost cried out.

"Don't be surprised, Doctor Wang..." He took out the poisoned silver hairpin, but saw several steel knives suddenly stretched out from the shadows.

Tiewa fell down from the beam and slapped him in the face with the back of the knife: "Master Zhang, the emperor has been waiting for you for a long time."

An hour later, in the Yangxin Palace.

Xuan Ling stood in front of the dragon table holding two confessions, and the twilight gilded his outline.

The bloody fingerprints on the offering paper were still wet, and Doctor Wang's crooked handwriting read: "The Queen has granted this minister a place in the Imperial College..."

The other one was from Minister Zhang: "Grand Marshal Duan ordered me to silence him..."

"Decree it." A cold light flashed in his eyes, "Empress Duan has plotted to murder the heir to the throne, and has been demoted to a commoner—"
