Lu Xiuyuan knew that Dan Ruo was in labor, so he simply rinsed her with cold water, changed into clean clothes, and rushed over.
When he rushed over, Danruo's painful roar was heard in the delivery room, followed by the cool cry of a baby.
The wife of Marquis Xuanping said excitedly: "This is a boy, there is still a baby in the belly."
Before Lu Xiuyuan even came to him, tears had already flowed out. No matter how serious the injury was or how painful it was, he did not cry. He really felt so happy at this moment.
He entered the delivery room and the wife of Marquis Xuanping put the child in her arms.
Lu Xiuyuan looked at the small, soft child, and his muscles tensed up instantly. He didn't dare to move or breathe, for fear that he would accidentally hurt the child.
Soon after, the second child was born, a girl.
The midwife thought the baby was born, but when she saw that Danruo's belly was still bulging, everyone in the delivery room exclaimed in surprise.
Lu Xiuyuan didn't understand what was going on through the curtain, and his voice trembled with worry: "Is Ruo'er okay? Ruo'er must be the first priority in everything."
He wanted to go in, but Princess Yan Yang scolded him not to cause trouble, and then Princess Yan Yang went in through the door behind the curtain.
It was the wife of Marquis Xuanping who spoke up and calmed Lu Xiuyuan down. Then, with the help of the midwife and the female doctor, a boy and a girl were born half an hour later.
He watched basins of blood being passed in front of him, and then listened to the noises in the house.
Lu Xiuyuan felt that this was more frightening than being tortured. He did not believe in gods and Buddhas, but in this half hour, he worshipped gods and Buddhas countless times in his heart, and would rather exchange his own life for the lives of his wife and children.
Seeing that the noise inside had ended, Lu Xiuyuan handed the child to Princess Yan Yang. Dan Ruo's hair was soaked and she was lying on the bed exhausted.
He knelt beside Danruo, holding her hand with tenderness, and then said solemnly:
"I, Lu Xiuyuan, swear on my life today that I will only have Danruo as my wife. If you ever have second thoughts about me, I will be pierced by thousands of arrows."
"When you recover, we will have a grand wedding. I want everyone in the world to know that you are my wife, Lu Xiuyuan."
Danruo looked at the sculpted upper half of the man's face, deliberately ignoring his unshaven lower half, and blinked in response.
After that, I couldn't help but close my eyes and fell asleep. I was so tired.
The wife of Marquis Xuanping and Princess Yanyang happily followed the midwife to take care of the four little babies.
Lu Xiuyuan stayed by Danruo's bed, picturing her features over and over in his mind, and then fell asleep on the side of the bed.
The next day, Dan Ruo just woke up and moved a little. Lu Xiuyuan sensed that he was also about to get up, and heard Dan Ruo complaining in his heart that his beard was prickly.
Lu Xiuyuan pretended to be still asleep and rubbed his chin on her hand twice.
Then he stood up to take care of Danruo while she was eating. He accidentally saw himself in the mirror with a beard that looked like a savage. He was afraid that it would affect his image in Danruo's mind, so he hurried to tidy himself up.
Princess Yan Yang didn't want to disturb the couple's time together, but there was one thing she felt it was time to tell her son the truth.
She found her son while he was washing up and told him about how Old Madam Lu brought Lu Guangzhi to ask for Dan Ruo's hand in marriage and caused a big commotion at the Marquis Xuanping's mansion.
"Given the situation at the time, all we can say is that the wedding had already taken place the night before you left, and your grandmother was about to take Danruo back to the Lu family.
The Lu family is in such a state now that if Dan goes back, she might not be able to keep her child, so mother said that she had already married you into the Xuanping Marquis Mansion.
To the outside world, you are now the son-in-law of the Xuanping Marquis's mansion."
After Princess Yan Yang finished speaking, she observed Lu Xiuyuan's expression. If Lu Xiuyuan was unwilling for the so-called man's face, she would not want this son.
Danruo's well-behaved and beautiful daughter and four lovely grandchildren are more important.
Lu Xiuyuan noticed his mother's gaze and said frankly:
"Ruo'er risked her life to bear me four precious children. So what if I marry into her family? A man shouldn't let these worldly views affect his life."
"As for Lu Guangzhi, he bullied my wife and children while I was away. I will not let such a villain go."
Princess Yan Yang patted his back.
"Mother has controlled the Lu family for many years. Even after she left, she still has the power to manipulate the Lu family. I have asked the kitchen to put a sterilizing drug in Lu Guangzhi's food. The Lu family will end with his generation."
Lu Xiuyuan bowed to Princess Yan Yang.
"Thank you, mother, for helping to protect my wife and children during this period. I am very grateful to you."
Princess Yanyang helped him up, her eyes reddened, "There's no need for mother and son to be so distant."
"It's just that," Princess Yan Yang choked up, "it's just that from now on, you will be the only one for mother."
She was betrayed by General Lu, and she felt not only angry but also aggrieved. Now that she saw her son, even though the incident had happened a long time ago, her eyes were still tearful because her backbone had returned.
Lu Xiuyuan supported Princess Yan Yang and said, "I will always be my mother's son."
It was his mother who worked hard to raise him since he was a child. Whenever he was injured while learning martial arts or occasionally fell ill, it was his mother who stayed with him every night.
My father only occasionally saw me asking about my schoolwork.
At that time, he asked the military doctor to send back false news in order to verify his position in his father's heart.
Sure enough, after knowing that he had no offspring, his father immediately had a new legitimate son and wife.
He will have his own family to protect in the future, and his father's side will no longer be his home.
Lu Xiuyuan returned to Beijing early and has stayed in the villa for three days. He must meet up with the main force, go to Beijing together, and then go to the palace to meet the emperor.
He hugged each child reluctantly, and then stuck to Danruo.
