Chapter 361 Li Xuanjing's Promise
Chang'an.
A number of luxurious carriages stopped at the gate of Ningxin Garden.
In Ningxin Garden.
Old Madam Song clasped her hands together and prayed softly.
The two women from the Song family supported her, and from time to time they looked up at the closed door in front of them.
Su Qing paced in the yard. The pain he had experienced when he gave birth to Jia Ren and Yi Ren came to his mind again, and he couldn't help but be filled with worry.
Song Zhe held her hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, Li Nuo is in there, nothing will happen."
Prince Chun and Li Xuanjing were standing in the distance. He glanced at Li Yun beside him and felt very angry.
Li Yun felt his father's gaze and quietly moved away.
"Wow!"
The sound of a baby crying from the delivery room made everyone's hearts fall to the ground.
After a while, the door of the delivery room opened, and Yiren was holding a swaddled baby in each of her arms.
Su Qing went to meet him immediately.
She looked at the identical little fellows in Yiren's arms, a smile appeared on her face, and she gently touched their tender little faces and said, "They are so cute, and look a lot like you back then..."
Not long after, there was another cry of a baby, and not long after, a swaddled baby came out of Fenghuang's arms.
This time, it was Prince Chun who ran up first. He looked at the baby in the cradle, waved to Li Xuanjing, and said, "Xuanjing, come and see. The little fellow's eyes are exactly like An Ning's..."
Just as people outside were surrounding the three newly born children of the Li family, inside the delivery room, Li Nuo's hand slowly moved away from An Ning's lower abdomen.
With the help of the doctor's true qi, the wound on her lower abdomen has completely disappeared.
At the same time, the skin on her abdomen became delicate and fair, no different from before pregnancy.
Although Li Nuo was a little tired after helping the beauty do all this, the satisfaction in his heart could dilute all the physical fatigue.
He held Jiahe and Anning's hands and said, "Thank you for your hard work..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yiren and Fenghuang brought the child in. Old Madam Song, my mother-in-law, and several women from the Song family also walked into the room.
Jia Ren and An Ning were holding their children, and a smile naturally appeared on their faces that Li Nuo had never seen before.
Li Nuo walked out of the room, and Prince Chun smiled and said to him, "Congratulations, you will be a father from now on!"
Li Nuo smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle Chun Wang."
For the Li family, which has only one descendant, today is undoubtedly a happy day.
Prince Chun held a banquet in Ningxin Garden and mobilized all the famous chefs in the palace to prepare birthday banquets for the three young masters and young ladies of the Li family.
As early as a month ago, Li Nuo prepared the baby's room.
Li Yun built three cribs by himself. The three little ones were sleeping soundly in the automatically rocking cribs.
Li Nuo squatted in front of the window and looked at them happily.
He also didn't expect that Jia Jia and An Ning would give birth to a child on the same day.
The three little ones were born within half an hour of each other. The twin boy and girl born to Jiaren were born first, followed by his and An Ning's daughter.
The genes of the Song family and the royal family are indeed strong. The brother and sister have too many similarities with the beautiful Yiren. An Ningsheng's daughter also looks like her in her eyes and eyebrows.
Li Yun and Li Nuo squatted side by side in front of the crib, looking at the three little guys, and suddenly said, "You have so many children. If you and Aunt An Ning have another boy in the future, can you give me one?"
Li Nuo didn't even look at him and said without hesitation: "Get lost."
Li Yun sighed lightly. Aunt An Ning also had royal blood. If he could adopt their child, his father would probably have no objection. Even if he adopted the child, it would be enough for him to inherit the throne in the future.
However, this was just his momentary thought.
It is still unclear whether my father can sit on the throne.
He did not mention the matter again and asked, "Have you named them yet?"
Li Nuo has not yet decided on their names.
He had discussed this with Jiaren and An Ning a long time ago and had come up with many alternative names, but no final decision has been made until today.
Even the beauty who was usually very decisive in doing things had difficulty making a decision on this matter.
Children's names usually have some meaning and contain their parents' expectations for them.
For example, the "Yu" in Song Yu's name means beautiful jade. People whose names contain jade-related content all hope that their children can achieve success when they grow up, such as Song Yu and Zhou Yu.
Naming girls should be simpler. Jiaren and Yiren both mean beautiful women. As the name An Ning suggests, the word Dai easily reminds people of words like beautiful and gentle, and it also matches the phoenix.
Li Yun suddenly asked curiously: "By the way, why did Uncle Li name you Li Nuo?"
How could Li Nuo know? Did his father want him to be an honest and trustworthy person?
Or, what promise did he make to someone?
He shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Why are you asking this?"
Li Yun sighed and said slowly: "If your name is not Li Nuo, I will not be called Li Yun..."
Li Nuo asked in surprise: "What's your name? What does it have to do with me?"
Li Yun said: "I wasn't called Li Yun before. After my father met Uncle Li, he changed my name. I asked him, and he said that the two words 'Yun Nuo' sounded easier to pronounce..."
Li Nuo was stunned for a moment and asked, "What was your name before?"
Li Yun sighed and said, "My name used to be Li Xuan. I had this name until I was eight years old. Then my father suddenly changed my name. It took me two years to get used to it..."
Li Nuo moved his lips. This was an unreliable thing that only Prince Chun could do.
Regardless of the origin of Li Yun's name, Li Nuo looked at the children who were sleeping soundly. No matter what, the matter of naming them could not be delayed any longer.
He and Jia Ren were in a dilemma, so Li Nuo gave all the alternative names to his father and asked him to make the decision for them.
From the dozens of names that Li Nuo and Jia Ren prepared for their son, the father chose "Li Yan".
According to Daxia tradition, single-character names are the most important.
Ordinary people may not care about this, but the male members of the powerful and wealthy families basically have single characters, such as Song Tai, Song Lian, Song Zhe, etc.
In my father's generation, the Li family was not considered a wealthy family, so there was no such requirement.
As the eldest son of the Li family, his name needs to be dignified and steady, not frivolous.
Yan means the sky is clear.
The original meaning of the word "Yan" is "clear", and it also has the shape of "stable". Li Nuo and his wife hope that he can have a gentle personality and be an upright person.
When He Jia Ren was named, the brother and sister's names were the same.
The brother's name is Li Yan and the sister's name is Li Nian.
Among all the alternative names, An Ning finally chose Li Zhi.
The palace where she lived as a child was full of gardenias, which were also her mother's favorite flowers.
Li Nuo walked out of his father's study room holding the piece of paper with his name on it. He couldn't help but turn around and asked curiously, "Dad, why did you and Mom name me Li Nuo?"
Li Xuanjing stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking out the window, and said softly: "You will know later."
Without getting any answers, Li Nuo shook his head and turned away.
After a while, Li Xuanjing walked to a cabinet in the study, opened the door, looked at the dozen or so spirit tablets in the cabinet, and remained silent for a long time.
After closing the cabinet door, he walked to the desk and took out a small brocade box from the deep of the desk drawer.
He opened the brocade box, looked at the jade hairpin inside, and whispered, "Their child was born today. I promise you will see him..."
