After Lu Xingzhou reported the good news, he rode away on his horse. Emperor Jingkang and the empress were so happy that they didn't know what to do and didn't even send out the things they had prepared.
After a while, the queen asked tentatively, "How about we go and take a look?"
Emperor Jingkang happened to have the same idea, but he was embarrassed to say it out of respect. Since the Queen brought it up, Emperor Jingkang pretended to be hesitant and said, "It's not impossible."
The Queen glanced at Emperor Jingkang and was still pretending. She didn't know how much she wanted to see the little grandson.
The Queen then ordered people to collect the best supplements from the Imperial Hospital to use for Shen Liyue's health. She also put on the gold necklace that had been made by the skilled craftsmen in the palace, as well as various rewards, and loaded a large cart, which made it so full that the Emperor and the Queen almost couldn't sit down.
But Emperor Jingkang and the Empress naturally didn't care about these things. They took advantage of the night, left the palace in a carriage, and headed straight for Prince Yi's Mansion.
Chen Wangqiu and Jiang were still staying in Prince Yi's Mansion. They had no idea that Emperor Jingkang and the Empress were coming. When they suddenly heard that the Emperor and the Empress were coming, they were so scared that they hurriedly packed their luggage.
"Father-in-law, there's no need to be so polite." Emperor Jingkang smiled happily and raised his hand to help Chen Wangqiu up.
"Why are Father and Mother here?" Lu Xingzhou was also very surprised. They didn't tell him when he went to tell them the good news just now.
However, the fact that the Emperor and Empress came to Prince Yi's Mansion in person was enough to show how much they valued this little grandson.
Shen Liyue was still asleep, so the emperor and empress naturally did not want to disturb her. They held the little grandson in their arms, and Emperor Jingkang and the empress smiled happily.
The queen took out the golden necklace that she had prepared long ago and put it around the little grandson's neck. The little grandson stared at them with his big eyes, but he didn't cry and even smiled.
His smile made Emperor Jingkang and the Queen laugh out loud.
"Have you chosen a name?" Emperor Jingkang asked Lu Xingzhou.
Lu Xingzhou shook his head. "Not yet. I wanted to wait until Yue'er woke up and ask her what she thought."
There was nothing wrong with what Lu Xingzhou said, but it frightened Shen Wangqiu and Jiang Shi beside him into breaking out in cold sweats. The emperor was here, and asking whether the child had been given a name should have been a form of bestowal of a name. When Lu Xingzhou said he wanted to ask Yue'er, didn't he mean that Yue'er was more important than what Emperor Jingkang said?
Just as Chen Wangqiu was about to explain and ask the emperor to grant him a name, Emperor Jingkang smiled and said, "Of course, you can discuss it among yourselves."
Seeing that Emperor Jingkang did not look angry, Chen Wangqiu and Jiang felt relieved.
Emperor Jingkang and the Queen were not in a position to stay here any longer. After all, Lu Xingzhou and Chen Liyue would be living in the East Palace in the future, and the children would be with them, so there was no need to rush.
Emperor Jingkang and the Queen were about to go back, so Shen Wangqiu and Jiang stood up to say goodbye. Lu Xingzhou smiled and saw them off, then returned to his room to quietly accompany Shen Liyue.
Seeing that Chen Liyue was sleeping soundly, Lu Xingzhou didn't want to disturb him. The child's wet nurse had already coaxed him to sleep. Lu Xingzhou took off his coat, got on the bed quietly, hugged Chen Liyue, and finally fell into a deep sleep.

Lu Xingzhou and Chen Liyue named their child Lu Jingxing, which means "admirable as a mountain, Jingxingxingzhi".
On the day of little Jingxing's full moon, a grand enthronement ceremony was held in the palace, and Lu Xingzhou and Chen Liyue officially moved into the East Palace with little Jingmo.
On the day when little Jingxing turned one year old, Emperor Jingkang abdicated, passed the throne to Lu Xingzhou, and moved to another courtyard with the empress.
Lu Xingzhou's coronation ceremony was scheduled to be held on the same day as Xiao Jingxing's first birthday. After the coronation ceremony, Lu Xingzhou didn't even have time to change into his court clothes, and hurried to Laiyi Hall to find Xiao Jingxing.
The retired emperor and the empress dowager were already in the Laiyi Palace. Today, Chen Wangqiu and Jiang were also invited into the palace, and they were all teasing little Jingxing.
A bunch of things were placed on the ground, waiting for Lu Xingzhou to arrive so that little Jingxing could officially start the "Zhuazhou" ceremony.
Little Jingxing was lying in his mother's arms and acting coquettishly. Shen Liyue poked his little face and said with a smile: "Go, pick out what you like."
Little Jingxing can already walk, but he is not very steady yet. However, he takes every step seriously.
"Wait a minute." Lu Xingzhou suddenly spoke, and little Jingxing raised his head and looked at his father eagerly.
Lu Xingzhou smiled and took out the jade seal from his arms and placed it on the ground. There was a bright yellow tassel tied on the jade seal. Shen Liyue was a little surprised. This was not an ordinary jade seal, but the national seal. Was it used to hold the one-year-old celebration for little Jingxing?
But the retired emperor and the queen mother didn't say anything, so Shen Liyue could only secretly look at Lu Xingzhou with a reproachful look, but ultimately didn't say anything.
"Okay, go ahead." Lu Xingzhou said gently to Xiao Jingxing.
Little Jingxing blinked his big eyes, seemed to understand, and continued to walk forward seriously.
Walking to the object supported by the red cloth, little Jingxing first grabbed a brush, then reached forward to grab a coin, and finally reached out his little hand to the jade seal.
The jade seal was very heavy and Xiao Jingxing couldn't hold it, so he simply put down the two things in his hands and tried to hold the jade seal carefully.
The emperor laughed heartily when he saw this scene, "It seems the throne has a successor."
Lu Xingzhou also had a smile on his face, and he decided in his heart that he would train Xiao Jingxing as the crown prince in the future.
When little Jingxing grows up, he will pass the throne to little Jingxing as soon as possible, just like his father did, and take Chen Liyue to travel around and see all the beautiful mountains and rivers.
After a busy day, I finally took a break.
Little Jingxing had fallen asleep long ago out of exhaustion. On that day, his grandparents came to play with him, but in reality, they were just there to play by themselves, and the baby was exhausted.
Lu Xingzhou and Shen Liyue were also filled with relief as they watched their son sleeping peacefully.
Seeing that the child was asleep, Lu Xingzhou lay on the bed, hugged Shen Liyue, and smiled.
"What are you doing?" Shen Liyue asked warily.
"Give Xiao Jingxing a younger sister."
