While Feng Changye was waiting here to meet Zhu Wuhuan, at the steps of Taiji Hall, the civil and military officials finally waited for Eunuch Yuan to come and redeem them.
I've been kneeling for two hours and my legs are almost broken!
"Thanks to God's blessing, the Empress gave birth safely to the Emperor's eldest son and the little princess. Mother and child are all safe!"
Xiao Yuanzi stood on the steps, looking down at the ministers.
"The eldest prince was born at midnight, and the little princess was born a quarter of an hour later. Both were born perfectly healthy, without any birthmarks or defects. This is a great joy for Da Ning!"
All the civil and military officials looked up at Eunuch Yuan. Upon hearing these words, their eyes lit up with excitement, and they could even temporarily ignore the pain in their knees!
The eldest prince! The emperor really has a son! He has a crown prince!
To be honest, even though they knew the Queen was pregnant with twins, they were still worried. What if both babies were girls? Wouldn't they have to wait a few more years before they could have their heir?
Now that the eldest prince is born, they can finally rest assured!
"I congratulate His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the Empress on their great happiness—"
Everyone kowtowed excitedly towards the Taiji Hall, looking at the other ministers while kowtowing.
Among the ten people, eight of them were secretly thinking about how to get the position of "Taifu" next.
Given the Emperor's fondness for the Empress, as long as this little prince doesn't grow up badly, he will definitely be the Crown Prince and the future king!
They are now Taifu, and will be Taifu of the Crown Prince in the future, and will be the Emperor's teacher in the future!
The title of Imperial Teacher is such an honorable one for the family, we must strive for it with all our might!
On the high platform, Xiao Yuanzi could see all the looks of the ministers below.
He looked so proud.
Tsk tsk, these old guys haven't even seen their little prince yet, but they are already ready to fight over him. When they see how adorable the little prince is, I'm afraid they will roll up their sleeves and start fighting, right?
Alas, it’s a pity that he is a eunuch.
Otherwise, he would be the first to roll up his sleeves and fight with everyone, the little prince is his!
He calmly and with the demeanor of a great eunuch told everyone that his master had rewarded everyone with three months' salary, and then told everyone to return home as ordered.
Amidst the ministers' voices of thanks, he added, "Please ask the officials from the Imperial Observatory to stay and read the fortunes for the eldest prince and the little princess so that they can be recorded in the Jade Disc as soon as possible."
The director of the Imperial Observatory respectfully accepted the order.
As he led a few people to stand up and walk towards the Taiji Hall, he calculated the fate of the little prince in his mind.
Just after climbing a few steps, he calculated in his mind and suddenly slapped his thigh and shouted in shock, "Amazing!"
When the ministers who were supporting each other and leaving heard his shout, they all turned their heads to look at him.
"What god?"
Everyone looked at him strangely and said in unison.
The Supervisor's face flushed with excitement, and he almost jumped up. "It's incredible, it's truly incredible! Is this God's will? God bless Daning!"
He turned to look at his colleagues, his lips trembling with joy!
"My Lords, I have just made a rough calculation. Our little prince is truly extraordinary! Based on his birth date and time, combined with the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches and the Five Elements, he is destined to be a king who will shake the heavens and earth. He will accomplish great things and achieve extraordinary feats. From birth, he will be a soaring dragon in the sky, revered and respected, commanding the world and terrifying the mountains and rivers!"
“…” All the ministers looked at him in disbelief.
Born with the Emperor's destiny? That can't be such a coincidence, right?
Were his words flattering to please the Emperor and Empress, or was the fate of their little prince really so miraculous?
The Supervisor was stared at with suspicious eyes by everyone, but he didn't feel annoyed. He was so happy about the little prince's fate that he was going crazy. He just wanted to quickly find the calendar and make a detailed calculation. He didn't bother to pay attention to those who questioned him!
He waved his hands happily at everyone, "If you don't believe me, go home and look up the almanac and the Book of Changes. If you don't understand, find someone who understands the Book of Changes to help you! Our little prince is truly extraordinary from the moment he was born!"
After saying this, he hurriedly trotted into the Taiji Hall with the other people from the Imperial Observatory.
They're going to get down to business!
They must figure out the little prince's fate as soon as possible to shock the world!
The remaining civil and military officials looked at each other in astonishment.
He doesn't look fake. Could it be that their little prince is really that extraordinary?
If the little prince is really born with the destiny to be an emperor, then under the leadership of the little prince, their country will surely usher in the most glorious and prosperous era in the future!
Everyone looked at each other and suppressed the eagerness in their hearts.
Calm down, don't think about it anymore, otherwise they will be so excited that they can't help but persuade the current emperor to abdicate quickly and let the little prince ascend the throne immediately!
This is sheer treason! ...
Feng Changye had no idea that outside the Taiji Palace, those ministers had such outrageous thoughts after they learned about his son's good fortune.
He stood quietly in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, looking at the door patiently.
The light from the octagonal palace lantern shone on his face, making him look so handsome and gentle as he looked at the door.
That kind of intoxicating tenderness only appears when he is waiting for his beloved queen.
No one is worthy of it except the Queen.
It took a full quarter of an hour for the midwife to make Zhu Wuhuan clean and tidy and tidy up the delivery room.
In the room, Zhu Wuhuan glanced around the house.
Well, that’s right, all the unsightly things were rolled up and taken away.
There is just a slight fishy smell in the room.
Since the emperor didn't allow her to light incense, she could only make do by having someone bring in a few more plates of dried osmanthus and other flower petals and place them in the house.
She directed the palace servants to work busily again.
Only after the room was filled with the fragrance of osmanthus did Zhu Wuhuan agree to let Feng Changye in.
After waiting for almost half an hour, Feng Changye was finally able to enter the delivery room.
He looked around the room as he walked, and the more he looked, the funnier it seemed to him, and the corners of his mouth curled higher and higher.
"These seven or eight kinds of dried flowers, these six or seven kinds of fragrant fruits..."
He looked at Zhu Wuhuan lying on the bed from afar and sighed, "Queen, you have a truly amazing brain! You're almost making me die of fun!"
Zhu Wuhuan was also amused by his own silliness and smiled sweetly at him.
That smile made his heart suddenly sweet.
He couldn't control his desire to hug her, so he walked quickly towards her, lifted his robe and sat down on the edge of the bed, then immediately bent down and hugged her in his arms, holding her tightly.
He gently kissed her sweaty hair and whispered softly, "Queen..."
He clearly only murmured two words, but Zhu Wuhuan seemed to hear thousands of words.
She glanced sideways into his black eyes, and at that moment, his heartache, his gratitude, and his love were all so strongly displayed in those eyes.
