Upon hearing this, Qi Nanyan could no longer conceal the joy on his face and said:
"I'll trouble you here, uncle. I'll go back to the mansion first and meet you at the palace later."
He jumped on his horse and headed straight for Prince Rui's mansion!
He has lived for twenty years and has never been as happy as he is today!
The position of Crown Prince and the imperial edict of succession that he has coveted for so long are in his hands. He only needs to keep a tight grip on tomorrow's morning court and then he can wait for the Ministry of Rites' coronation ceremony!
And today, he also had his first child in his life!
When he returned home, he went straight to Si Jinyue's Cuijing Pavilion, but saw Concubine Liu blocking the door and not letting the midwife in.
Just let Si Jinyue in the room wail and scream.
Qi Nanyue was immediately filled with rage. This child was his lucky star. How could Liu harm him?
He strode forward, kicked her to the ground, and pushed the midwife into the room!
He grabbed Liu's clothes and dragged her into the yard!
He suddenly let go and said coldly:
"You vicious woman! How dare you harm my child so blatantly!"
Concubine Liu knew that her prince had been very busy recently, often discussing matters with his staff until midnight, and today he left the palace early in the morning.
How could I get the news so quickly today?
She was kicked in the waist and abdomen and was in pain. She curled up and dared not move, but she said:
"Your Majesty, when I had a miscarriage, she was able to do something, but now, I can't do anything?
I do remember one thing. I heard some rumors in your mansion.
It is said that Si Jinyue, who was then the princess, was very close to a guard in the prince's courtyard.
I wonder if His Majesty has ever heard this? So, I wonder if this child...”
Upon hearing this, Qi Nanyue's face turned ashen. He suddenly raised his hand and swung it towards Concubine Liu's face!
As he listened to the screams and roars coming from the room, the faces of Yuan Qing and Si Jinyue flashed through his mind.
Chunyu came out with a basin of blood, walked quickly to Qi Nanyan's side, knelt down and cried:
“Your Majesty, please make the decision for us to be your wife!
If Concubine Liu hadn't hit my wife, she wouldn't have given birth to the baby today.
Madam has always said that if anything goes wrong, the child must be kept. This is the prince's first child, and there must be no mistakes!"
Chunyu's words completely dispelled Qi Nanyue's doubts.
But before Si Jinyue gave birth to the child, he saw the guards rushing into the yard in a panic, saying:
"Your Highness, this is bad! A group of people suddenly appeared on the street. There are more than 20,000 of them!"
He paused slightly, then trembled as he spoke:
"The leaders are General Si and General Lan, and..."
