After recovering from the shock, the Queen Mother was naturally filled with joy. She looked at the child in her arms and smiled again and again, as if she couldn't get enough of it. After hearing Wen Yunxiao's words, she quickly nodded and said, "Yes, Concubine Xian risked her life to carry you out of the sea of fire, and now you have done a great deed."
"The appointment of a noble concubine should be handled as soon as possible. We cannot let the virtuous concubine feel disappointed. Women are extremely weak after giving birth. Your Majesty, please go and accompany her. I will take care of the rest!"
The Queen Mother took all the responsibilities upon herself, looking down at the little one in her arms, unable to control the kindness and smile on her face.
Wen Yunxiao had just walked into the inner hall. Although the room had been cleaned up by the palace maids, the strong smell of blood could not be dissipated for a while.
Seeing Lin Chunhuan looking tired and sleepy, his little face turned pale and his heart ached slightly.
"The Emperor is here. Has he seen the child?"
Lin Chunhuan's voice was weak, but he still forced a smile when facing the emperor.
She was really tired. Although it didn't hurt, she didn't give up at all. Now she even found it difficult to lift a finger. Sweat soaked her hair and her body was covered with black ash.
Every mess on her body is a credit to her today.
Wen Yunxiao squatted beside the bed, holding Lin Chunhuan's delicate hand tightly. He was speechless for a long time, his heart and eyes full of heartache.
Only then did he quickly nod in response, his voice choked with sobs, "I saw him, the child is very healthy and looks a lot like Huan'er."
"With such a young child, how can I tell if they look alike? The Emperor just teases me."
Lin Chun smiled happily, and his smile was as bright as the sky.
"Huan'er, thank you for your hard work."
The two hands were tightly clasped. At least at this moment, all of Wen Yunxiao's heartache and gratitude were real, but Lin Chunhuan didn't care about it.
What she cared about was the power the emperor could give to her and her son!
Lowering her eyes and shaking hands, Lin Chunhuan shook her head weakly, "This is what I should do. It is my honor to be able to give birth to children for the emperor."
"Huan'er, are you exhausted? Go to sleep. Don't worry, I will always be here with you!"
Seeing that Lin Chunhuan was so tired that she had difficulty lifting her eyelids, Wen Yunxiao's heartache was almost overflowing from his eyes, and he was reluctant to hold her aside to talk.
Sure enough, before he even finished nodding, Lin Chunhuan had already fallen asleep. Seeing this, Nanny Jiang stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please go check on the little prince first."
"This old servant will wipe your body so that you can sleep more soundly."
Although he was reluctant, Wen Yunxiao nodded and stood up. He had more important things to do!
As soon as he left the inner hall, the Queen Mother had already carried the child to the Cining Palace. Wen Yunxiao could no longer control the murderous aura in his body, "Come here, pass on my order to execute Concubine Wu and exterminate her entire clan!"
The joy of the prince's birth had not yet spread throughout Kyoto, but the bloody events of the Wu family had made everyone in the court feel insecure.
A huge organization like the Prime Minister's Mansion collapsed at any time, and at the Caishikou where beheadings were made, fresh heads fell off every day for half a month.
The strong smell of blood lingered over Caishikou and could not dissipate for a long time.
In the Prince of Jin's mansion.
Chang Ning had lost a lot of weight and helplessly grasped the sleeve of Prince Jin. "Brother, what should we do? Concubine Wu just offended Lin Chunhuan, and the entire Wu family is doomed."
"She's a royal concubine! She even gave birth to a prince for Daning... I, I've offended Lin Chunhuan before, and she's already taken Jiang He's life. If His Majesty knew that we arranged that little eunuch, we'd..."
"alright!"
Prince Jin was upset by the noise and paced back and forth in the room impatiently. "You ask me what to do? I also want to know what to do!"
"The eunuch's parents are in my hands, so he dare not speak carelessly. You also have to remember that this matter has nothing to do with our Jinwang Mansion!"
"As for the matter of forming a clique for personal gain, even though I blamed it all on that short-lived Jiang He, now that the prince has been born, do you think the emperor will let me and the entire Jin Palace off in order to pave the way for his own son?"
Prince Jin's eyes were bloodshot, and he became more and more angry as he spoke, even slapping Changning in the face. "If you weren't a lewd person by nature, and insisted on marrying Jiang He even though you knew he was engaged, Lin Chunhuan would be Jiang He's wife by now, so how could she enter the palace!"
"If he doesn't enter the palace, the emperor won't have children. It's only a matter of time before I'm adopted!"
"It's all because of you!"
Changning was stunned by the slap.
With the fall of the Wu family, everyone in the Prince of Jin's mansion was in panic, but she never thought that her brother, who had loved her like a father since childhood, would actually hit her!
"Your Highness Prince Jin!"
Chang Ning was furious, not caring about the emperor's reckoning. He stood up from the ground and said, "Don't forget, it was you who arranged my marriage with Jiang He!"
"If Lin Chunhuan really sets his sights on me, you and I, brother and sister, will both prosper and suffer together. Do you think you can escape responsibility?"
Prince Jin's face turned pale after being rebuked.
He clenched his fists and unclenched them, and finally he let out a sigh of relief. "Forget it, it's already come to this. Jiang He is already dead. There's no point in arguing about right and wrong."
"Take this."
A small paper bag was stuffed into Changning's hands. The Prince of Jin's face was gloomy. "I'm afraid that the virtuous concubine will not be able to sleep with you for a while. You are as beautiful as her. When you have time, go visit the Queen Mother more often."
"Brother, what do you mean..."
Before Changning could finish his words, the King of Jin gestured to silence him, "This is a treasure from the Western Regions. Any man would be unable to resist."
"You're right. We share the same mother, and we rise and fall together." Prince Jin stepped forward and asked Changning to hold the paper bag tightly. "This is our last chance as siblings."
In the Cining Palace, the Queen Mother brought little Chengyi forward and placed him in Lin Chunhuan's arms.
After more than a month of nursing, the skinny and tiny premature baby finally began to look a little plump. The more the empress dowager saw him, the happier she became, and she became better and better to Lin Chunhuan.
"Lingxi Palace can't be repaired in a short time. I'm sorry that you have to stay here for the time being."
The Queen Mother sat by the bed and spoke sincerely.
After all, it was a woman in confinement after childbirth, and there would often be court officials coming in and out of the Weiyang Palace. It was not appropriate for her to live there, and the empress dowager was worried about the other palaces.
Just bring the person directly to the Cining Palace.
Lin Chunhuan didn't feel aggrieved at all about this.
In the Cining Palace, everything she ate and used was the best, and she had nourishing soups every day, but the Empress Dowager kept a close eye on her.
Afraid that she would get sick if exposed to the wind, he refused to let her step out of the door.
Hearing the Queen Mother's words, Lin Chunhuan shook her head. "Your Majesty, you are being too harsh on me. You have taken such good care of Cheng Yi and have been so attentive to me."
"I am grateful to you so much that I cannot express how could I feel wronged."
