Chapter 18: The Brave Emperor and the Delicate County Magistrate's Daughter (17)



Princess Hua'an's mouth was dry from talking so much.

But when she saw her younger sister-in-law looking at her with a smile, as if she trusted her sincerely, she suddenly felt guilty.

Why do I feel like I'm kidnapping a child?

After coughing twice in a pretentious manner, Princess Hua'an added silently.

"Actually, your Majesty's performance wasn't that bad... only slightly worse than your brother-in-law, the Marquis."

Princess Hua'an even gestured with her hands.

It means it’s really very little, just a little bit!

Qingdai smiled knowingly.

Princess Hua'an coughed again, and after a series of earth-shaking coughs, she pretended nothing had happened.

Princess Hua'an had traveled all over the country in her early years and had seen the beautiful mountains, rivers and streams. She had extraordinary knowledge and soon described to Qingdai in vivid detail the beautiful scenery she had seen.

"And my chess skills were taught to me personally by your brother-in-law, the Marquis. If you don't believe me, let's play a game and show you the results of your brother-in-law's teaching."

After a while, the two of them picked up the chess book with great interest and started playing back and forth.

Outside the pavilion.

"Your Majesty, would you like me to go over and make an announcement?"

His Majesty has been standing outside the pavilion watching for such a long time, but the two masters in the pavilion didn't notice.

Gong Liangxiu's eyes were gloomy as his gaze fell on Qingdai's excited face.

Qingdai has been staying in this palace for several months without going out for a walk. She must be feeling bored.

It would be good to let the elder sister tell her more.

He could see that the smile on her face was genuine joy.

"No."

After saying that, he turned around and gave orders.

"Prepare the car, I want to leave the palace."

Xiao Luzi ordered someone to prepare the carriage and His Majesty left the palace in casual clothes.

When the coachman asked where he was going, he learned that His Majesty was going to the Marquis of Pingyang's Mansion.

Gong Liangxiu entered the Marquis of Pingyang's Mansion with a stern face and came out in less than half an hour.

Xiao Luzi observed carefully and found that his Majesty's expression had eased a lot.

On the contrary, the Marquis of Pingyang, who was following behind His Majesty to see him off, seemed to be forcing a smile, and his body was as shaky as a duckweed in the wind.

Then came the servants following the two men, carrying boxes of things out.

"I would like to thank my brother-in-law for this."

Marquis Pingyang gritted his teeth and forced himself not to look at the boxes of treasured chess records.

Many of these endgames are out of print, and this is the only copy left in the world.

"Your Majesty, you are too kind... This is what I should do."

When saying this, Marquis Pingyang seemed to be squeezing out each word from between his teeth.

Only the heavens knew that his heart was aching at this moment.

Xiao Luzi was terrified when he got on the carriage.

Oh my old swan.

Your Majesty, have you taken back all the chess records collected by Marquis Pingyang?

The Marquis actually didn't fight with His Majesty?!

I hope Your Majesty won't be assassinated on the way back to the palace...

This is treasonous... This is treasonous... You cannot curse Your Majesty like this...

In the silent carriage, Xiaoluzi's silence was deafening.

***

During dinner in the evening, Qingdai felt that something was wrong with Gong Liangxiu.

The man said mysteriously that he wanted to give her a gift.

This made Qingdai a little curious about what he would give her.

Xiao Luzi listened from the side and smiled knowingly.

This smile became even more profound when His Majesty took out the rare chess manual and gave it to the Imperial Concubine.

The imperial concubine held the chess manual in her arms and couldn't let it go. She raised her head and gave His Majesty a sweet kiss on the face.

Xiao Luzi looked at his Majesty's worthless smile and slowly lowered his head.

Gong Liangxiu gave Xiao Luzi a wink, and Xiao Luzi immediately understood.

Your Majesty, rest assured, I will never tell the Imperial Concubine about your act of forcibly seizing the Marquis's chess records!

hey-hey……

In this palace, he is the only one who sees through everything!

***

It was one night that Qingdai felt that she was about to give birth.

After dinner, my stomach started to ache.

Gong Liangxiu hurriedly carried her into the delivery room.

The steady man's mind was going blank at this moment. He had no idea what to do and was extremely anxious.

The midwife who had been arranged long ago went in in an orderly manner and asked people to prepare water and white gauze.

"Your Majesty, please move outside the room and wait."

Gong Liangxiu knew that staying here would only be a hindrance, and the biggest problem now was helping Qingdai deliver her baby.

"Take good care of the imperial concubine. I want to see her and her child safe and sound!"

The midwife sent the big Buddha away and wiped away the non-existent sweat.

The emperor's majestic aura is something that not everyone can bear.

It seems that the rumor that His Majesty dotes on the Imperial Concubine is indeed true.

A midwife wiped the indigo with a white cloth. Sweat kept coming out of her forehead, and she kept comforting the precious imperial concubine.

"Relax, my lady... Relax first... Then when you're ready to give birth, concentrate your strength and give birth all at once."

The other two midwives lifted the imperial concubine's clothes.

To be honest, the imperial concubine's pregnant belly is really scary big.

They are already prepared for multiple births.

"System, how are my children now?"

"Host, please rest assured. The reason why the system is called the Childbirth System is that it will definitely ensure that the host can give birth to the baby safely!"

"The host has already taken pregnancy-preserving pills. The babies are all healthy. Please rest assured."

Gong Liangxiu waited outside the delivery room for an unknown amount of time.

The sound of babies crying could be heard one after another.
