"My beloved consort, you must give birth to our son safely. I will make you empress and our son crown prince. You will become the most honored woman in the world, and our child will be the next emperor of the world."
"You must take good care of yourself, nothing can happen to you."
When Gu Jiangli heard that she would be made empress, his eyes widened instantly, and he immediately regained his energy.
"Your Majesty, is what you just said true?"
"Of course, as long as my beloved consort gives birth to the prince smoothly, I will announce to the world that you will be made empress and a crown prince will be established."
"So my beloved concubine, you absolutely cannot get hurt, understand?"
Gu Jiangli nodded vigorously.
She had been waiting for this day for so long!
The emperor's promise has been made; all that's left is to wait for the child's birth.
Just then, the midwife that the monk had found arrived.
When the midwife entered the room, she was startled to see two men inside.
Fortunately, she was a midwife who was used to big events, so she didn't dare to say much. After bowing, she quickly and steadily began her work.
The emperor did not leave the bedside from beginning to end.
Gu Jiangli also displayed acting skills worthy of an award-winning actress, portraying three parts of pain as ten parts.
The more difficult her birth, the more the emperor will remember the promise he made to her today.
The time was gradually getting later.
Just before the sun set behind the western mountains, the cry of a baby descended upon the temple on Xiling Mountain.
"It's a prince! It's a prince! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
The imperial physicians and midwives were laughing so hard they could hardly open their eyes, but the emperor's heart and eyes were filled with Gu Jiangli.
He repeatedly said "good" but his gaze only fell on the young prince for a moment before turning back to Gu Jiangli.
"My beloved consort, thank you, thank you for giving birth to my first son."
Gu Jiangli was so tired that all she wanted to do was sleep. She said softly, "It is my blessing to give birth to a prince for Your Majesty."
The emperor gently kissed her forehead. "Rest well, my empress."
The baby cried loudly in the midwife's arms, not at all like a premature baby, but more like he couldn't wait to be born.
Outside the door.
Daocheng was in the courtyard the whole time. When he heard the midwife shout "She's given birth!", he was also extremely excited.
But the next moment, the baby's cries disappointed him greatly.
The baby is fine; it wasn't stillborn...
Suddenly, he felt a cool sensation on the top of his bald head.
He reached out and touched it, and a small droplet of water landed on the back of his hand.
He looked up, and a group of guards also looked up.
The expression on their faces gradually changed from doubt to surprise.
One after another, large water droplets poured down from the sky.
"Is it raining?"
"It's raining!"
