"Grandmother, will Zheng'er have a younger brother or sister soon?" Ying Zheng raised his head and looked at the Queen Mother Huayang innocently.
Zhao Ji was about to give birth. As soon as Ying Zichu arrived at the palace and before the formalities were over, Zhao Ji felt a sharp pain in her stomach, and then she knew she was about to give birth.
Queen Dowager Huayang and Queen Dowager Xia were not very panicked, especially Queen Dowager Huayang, who calmly ordered people to carry Zhao Ji into the house.
Ying Zichu was not so calm. He hurriedly ordered Meng Que to invite the midwife, while he himself walked back and forth outside the house in a somewhat impatient manner.
"Your Majesty, why do you have to be like this?" Queen Mother Xia advised, "This matter is somewhat determined by fate. Madam has given birth to Zheng'er after all, so this time it will probably be safe."
"I know, I know." Ying Zichu was still a little impatient. He only had Ying Zheng as his heir, and as a king, this was extremely irresponsible. Furthermore, his health was estimated to be short-lived. Although he looked calm now, he still knew what was really going on.
Moreover, Ying Zheng was still young, while his brothers were still in their prime. Although a few were killed a while ago under the pretext of raising military funds, it was only a few. You have to know that King Xiaowen of Qin had more than twenty sons and daughters.
If there were really two people who were so desperate that they assassinated Ying Zheng after his death, then his lineage would be extinct.
With so many factors involved, the child in Zhao Ji's belly was a hope. At the very least, it could reduce some risks for Ying Zheng.
How could he not be anxious now that Queen Mother Xia told him not to? Putting aside the motto on the meteorite, even the fact that his father, King Qin Xiaowen, had a crush on Ying Zheng forced him to take it seriously.
"What's with all the fuss?!" Queen Dowager Huayang scolded. "You're a king after all, so why are you so restless?"
Ying Zichu quickly apologized. Although he was now the King of Qin, Queen Dowager Huayang was his legal mother in name only. He could be disrespectful to his biological mother, Queen Dowager Xia, but he could not be disrespectful to Queen Dowager Huayang.
When the Queen Mother Huayang saw Ying Zichu finally sit down, she softened her tone and said, "How could I not know the king's inner anxiety?
Although I've never given birth, I'm still a woman, and I know childbirth is a life-or-death struggle. But what good is it for the king to rush about this? It's just causing those midwives some discomfort, and if they get too anxious, they might actually make a mistake. Then, will the king blame them or himself?
Chen Xuan was awakened by the noise. Since they were in the inner court, he did not hang on Ying Zheng's back, but fell asleep on the ground.
What's this? !
Suddenly, a ferocious beast appeared above the palace. It was as big as a tiger, with nine human faces and a golden body. It roared ferociously in the air.
Luck? Whose?
Chen Xuan's sleepiness was completely shaken by this thing. The last time he saw such great luck was when Xunzi was with him. Although this one didn't have the suppressive power of the Black Qilin, and was even a little weak, it didn't prevent Chen Xuan from being on guard.
"Grandmother, will Zheng'er have a younger brother or sister soon?" Ying Zheng raised his head and looked at the Queen Mother Huayang innocently.
Wait, is this Cheng Jiao’s luck?
Chen Xuan understood instantly. Zhao Ji's destiny was a blue phoenix. The beast was so huge that Chen Xuan didn't see it at first glance.
Do you want to kill this guy now?
Chen Xuan pondered for a moment. Based on his recent experience, when luck is lost, a person's mental state can be severely damaged, becoming a vegetative state. In severe cases, the person can die suddenly, with no chance of survival.
The ferocious beast seemed to have not noticed anything yet, and was just roaring there. As if in response to the beast's cry, a very loud cry was also heard from inside the house.
Is it born?
Chen Xuan slowly floated up, and his dragon eyes slowly turned red.
Okay, just slap him to death so that he won’t cause trouble for Zheng boy in the future!
The crying continued. Although the midwife in the room did not come out, the people outside felt relieved.
Ying Zichu just felt that this time was so unbearable that he wanted to push the door open and take a look. If it weren't for the Queen Mother Huayang pressing him aside, he would have gone in long ago.
"Squeak~"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, it's a son. The Madam is also safe."
The sound of the door opening was accompanied by the midwife's good news. Although delivering babies for princes and nobles would earn her more money, the risks were also extremely high. If something went wrong, she alone might not be able to cover the compensation.
Ying Zichu could no longer stay there, so he quickly pushed the midwife away and walked quickly into the room.
Fortunately, Queen Dowager Huayang was not in a hurry. She signaled Queen Dowager Xia to bring Ying Zheng in first, and asked the midwife to follow the guards to receive the reward before she went in.
Chen Xuan pondered for a while in the air, but decided not to kill the ferocious beast with a slap. He just followed Ying Zheng in obediently.
What made Chen Xuan decide to give up was the name of this beast. Thanks to playing a lot of online games in his previous life, Chen Xuan still knew many mythical beasts and fierce beasts.
Although he didn't know what fate the person who rebelled later would have, he knew it couldn't be Luwu, the enlightened beast who guarded Kunlun Mountain in the legend, right?
In the room, Ying Zichu was holding the newborn Cheng Jiao. Zhao Ji felt a little tired, so she fell asleep.
Ying Zheng lay on the side and watched, his eyes full of stars. Although Cheng Jiao was not very cute when he just left, he still made Ying Zheng feel a sense of care.
Chen Xuan happened to float in, saw Ying Zheng's face full of surprise, and then glanced at Cheng Jiao who was making a fuss in Ying Zichu's arms. He was weighing the pros and cons of killing Cheng Jiao.
