Seeing that Ji Qingxue looked quite well, I felt relieved!
Congratulations, sister-in-law, on the birth of your son!
Lin Yuxin smiled and congratulated Ji Qingxue.
"Thank you, little sister."
Ji Qingxue was still a little weak, so Lin Yuxin and Zhao Hanyue left after a short while to let her rest. The baby was being taken care of by a wet nurse, so they didn't have to worry too much.
The eldest sister-in-law didn't name the child yet; she wanted the eldest brother to come back and name him. So for now, she's only given the little one a nickname: Xiao Bao.
Lin Yuxin and the others also called him "Little Treasure" every day.
This kid is growing very fast and is quite strong; his arms are almost as thick as lotus roots! They feel so chubby to the touch, Lin Yuxin loves them!
Because of this child, the Lin family mansion, which was already bustling, became even more lively!
Before we knew it, Xiao Bao was a month old. Since his older brother hadn't come back yet, we simply invited his maternal grandfather's family and the Grand Tutor's family over for a simple full-month celebration.
The whole family was initially happy, but Lin Yuxin also had an attack that night.
Even with so many treasures, Lin Yuxin couldn't stop the pain!
"ah!"
Lin Yuxin was lying in the delivery room, screaming in pain.
Zhao Hanyue, her sister-in-law, and Lin Shixiao paced anxiously outside the door.
"Why is Xin Xin screaming so pitifully? Is it even more painful than my sister-in-law's?"
Lin Shixiao said anxiously.
"Don't worry, the midwife and the imperial physician have gone in, everything should be alright!"
Ji Qingxue looked inside with a worried expression, but didn't forget to comfort her brother-in-law!
Zhao Hanyue didn't dare to speak at this moment.
"Ugh! Li Xiaochen, you bastard! I'm never having another child!"
"Ah! Li Xiaochen, you bastard! If you don't come back soon, I'm taking my son and running away!"
"Ah! Help! It hurts so much!! I'm not giving birth anymore! Li Xiaochen, if you want to give birth, you can give birth yourself!"
Lin Yuxin's curses came from inside.
Zhao Hanyue: ...Looks like she's not in pain yet!
Lin Shixiao: ...That's right, Li Xiaochen is indeed a jerk!
Ji Qingxue couldn't help but lower her head and chuckle.
The news of Lin Yuxin giving birth somehow reached the palace, and within an hour, Cheng Tinghao arrived, travel-worn.
"How is your sister?"
Hearing the curses coming from inside, Cheng Tinghao asked with concern.
"Your Highness, don't worry. This is how it is when you give birth. It will be fine after the baby is born."
Zhao Hanyue bowed to Cheng Tinghao and then spoke.
Cheng Tinghao was made crown prince after the state banquet. In the past few months, he has been helping the emperor handle state affairs and has done a remarkable job.
The opinions of civil and military officials regarding his appointment as crown prince gradually diminished.
Another reason is that Lin Yuxin once said in court that she only supports the Ninth Prince. If the Ninth Prince stops being the Crown Prince, she will take him back to her fiefdom, and all her treasures and weapons will have to go with her.
The implication is that if you don't let him be the crown prince, she will take Cheng Tinghao and declare herself king!
This directly angered half of the officials, and the ministers dared not speak out. In addition, half of the people in the court were now acquaintances of Lin Yuxin, except for a few military generals from the Zhao family, the Grand Tutor, and several officials from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.
And that underling Lin Yuxin took in before, the son of the marquis who was kicked out, has now become the Imperial Censor! Lin Yuxin once thought that he had been harmed by his elder brother, so she sent people to look for him, but to no avail.
Who knew that he would take a different approach, fake his death, and then pass the imperial examination. This impressed Lin Yuxin, and all these acquaintances stood on Lin Yuxin's side.
Some adults, intimidated by Lin Yuxin's fighting prowess, also dared not speak up.
Meanwhile, the Emperor watched the show with an air of composure. Seeing the situation turn out one-sided, he was quite satisfied. He knew that Lin Yuxin would be needed to oversee the matter of appointing the Crown Prince.
After the unanimous vote, Lin Yuxin, despite being pregnant, walked out of the palace with her toes pointing outwards.
When Lin Yuxin gave birth, the Emperor and Empress sent people to inquire about her condition and summoned all the other imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital. Soon, a group of imperial physicians surrounded Lin Yuxin's room, discussing countermeasures.
However, as everyone knows, having a child cannot be rushed, so we can only wait for now.
When Zhao Yingjie and his family arrived, there was no room left to stand.
Zhao Hanyue could only lead them to wait in the outer hall.
Those who came to visit heard Lin Yuxin's outrageous words, and everyone's face turned pale and then red, but no one dared to say anything!
Didn't you see that the Crown Prince didn't say anything?
The lights in the Lin residence remained on all night, and Lin Yuxin suffered in pain all night long. Lin Yuxin had no idea how many times she had drunk the elixir of immortality or eaten the century-old ginseng.
She couldn't perform the surgery on herself, and Lin Yuxin felt like she was in excruciating pain!
"Ah! Li Xiaochen! If you don't come back soon, you won't be able to see me again!!"
Lin Yuxin felt that she might die again. Giving birth and dying was a life-or-death situation, and it would be shameful even in the underworld! So Lin Yuxin's anger flared up again, and she shouted again with her already hoarse voice.
Then her vision blurred, and Lin Yuxin thought she was really going to die. But then she heard a loud bang as the delivery room door was kicked open, and a tall figure strode in, looking travel-worn.
"Xin Xin! Xin Xin, I'm back! I'm back! Just hold on a little longer, don't leave me!"
Lin Yuxin vaguely heard Li Xiaochen's voice, which was trembling with sobs. She thought she was hallucinating.
"Oh dear, Your Highness, please leave! This place is far too filthy; please don't offend you!"
