Before Helian Jue could breathe a sigh of relief, another baby cry was heard from inside the house.
Qin Yanning finally gave birth to two children in one go.
The female doctor brought the two children to Qin Yanning and said with a smile, "Congratulations, Lady Ning, you have a son and a daughter. This is a very auspicious sign."
"Help me up."
Song Yue hurried forward and helped Qin Yanning up. Qin Yanning leaned back on the bed and looked at the two children held by the female doctor.
One is fair and cute, but the other looks like a wrinkled red-haired monkey, and a little black.
Seeing Qin Yanning frown, the female doctor explained, "The whiter one is the younger sister, and the other one is the older brother."
Qin Yanning reluctantly accepted this setting. It didn't matter if the boy was ugly, as long as the daughter looked like her.
Qin Yanning was holding the two children in her arms, adoring them with great care. The two maids sent in by the empress dowager to help had already run out to announce the good news.
As soon as the two maids opened the door, Helian Jue's eyes lit up. If Ning'er hadn't stopped him from going in, he would have rushed in long ago.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, and Your Majesty the Queen Mother! Concubine Ning has given birth to a son and a daughter. Both mother and child are safe!"
In an instant, Helian Jue seemed to be overwhelmed by the great happiness, and he even felt like he was dreaming at the moment.
The empress dowager, who was praying with Buddhist beads in her hand, was also stunned. She staggered and almost fell.
Thanks to Ruixue's quick eyes and hands, she was able to hold her steadily.
Helian Jue and the Queen Mother didn't care about anything else and pushed the door open and entered the inner hall.
Concubine Zhuang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the news that Qin Yanning and her son were safe, but she did not follow them into the house.
His Majesty and the Queen Mother were eager to get close to the two children, but she didn't want to join in the fun. It wouldn't be too late for her to visit Qin Yanning tomorrow after she had rested.
She has more important things to do right now.
After entering the house, Helian Jue only saw that the hibiscus flower curtain in the inner room was lowered.
Although he couldn't see anything through the hanging flower archway, he could hear Qin Yanning's voice gently coaxing the child.
The female doctors each came with a hot water bottle to announce the good news.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty and the Queen Mother. It's cold outside, so please warm your hands to prevent the little prince and princess from catching a cold."
Although Helian Jue and the Queen Mother were jealous of the two children, they also knew that what the female doctor said made sense.
These two children are extremely precious now, and they cannot afford to be careless.
Both of them took the hot water bottles from the female doctors. After a while, Helian Jue felt that he was no longer cold, so he dared to lift the curtain to see Qin Yanning and the two children.
Qin Yanning sat on the bed holding her two children. Although her face was rosy, she looked a little haggard. Her hair was wet with sweat and stuck to her temples.
Helian Jue said with some distress: "Ning'er, you have worked hard."
Qin Yanning pursed her lips and said, "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? These are what Ning'er should do."
The Queen Mother didn't bother to care about Qin Yanning. She took a child from her hands and held him in her arms and started teasing him.
The empress dowager held the fairer and tenderer sister in her arms. She was not afraid at all when someone teased her. Instead, she stared at the empress dowager with her big eyes.
Helian Jue was also envious when he saw his brother in Qin Yanning's arms, but he suddenly felt homesick and was afraid to hold the child.
Qin Yanning noticed Helian Jue's awkwardness and said, "Your Majesty, please hold our children. The one the Queen Mother is holding is the little princess, and this one is the little prince."
Helian Jue then reached out and took the little prince from Qin Yanning's arms. As soon as he hugged the child, Helian Jue's whole body stiffened.
He looked at the newborn baby with rosy skin in his arms, and suddenly a strange feeling arose in his heart. Is this his child?
His and Ning'er's child?
The female doctor beside him saw Helian Jue's stiff movements and hurried forward to teach him how to hold the baby.
After all, Helian Jue had done his homework in advance, and with just a little guidance from the female doctor, he learned the correct way to hold a baby.
Soon, the little prince fell asleep in his arms.
Looking at the little prince sleeping peacefully in his arms, Helian Jue couldn't help but chuckle.
The Queen Mother also leaned over to join in the fun, and said with a sigh, "The brother is indeed not as pretty as our little princess. Our little princess will definitely be as beautiful as her mother when she grows up."
The serving nanny took the little prince and placed him in a cradle that had been prepared nearby. However, the little child held Helian Jue's fingers tightly and refused to let go.
Helian Jue had no choice but to ask the palace servants to move the cradle to the bedside so that the little prince could hold his fingers.
"Have the names of the two children been decided?" the Queen Mother couldn't help but ask.
But she knew that her son had started naming the two children since the day he found out Ning'er was pregnant.
Helian Jue nodded and replied, "My brother's name is Helian Jin, and my sister's name is Helian Yu."
This was the result that Helian Jue and Qin Yanning had discussed before. Jin and Yu are both nicknames for beautiful jade.
In his mind, both children, regardless of gender, are as precious and beautiful as jade.
He also hopes that both of his children will be gentle and kind in the future.
"It's a good name. It's worth the time you spent choosing it." The Queen Mother teased Helian Jue with a smile.
Helian Jue had one hand held by Jin'er, and he couldn't help but tease Yu'er with the other hand.
When the Queen Mother saw how useless Helian Jue was, she simply gave Yu'er to him to hold.
Helian Jue already had experience holding Jin'er, so he didn't seem so unfamiliar with holding Yu'er.
I don’t know if it’s because of her blood or if the little princess is really not afraid of strangers, but she is not afraid at all in Helian Jue’s arms.
Qin Yanning was happy to see that both children were so close to Helian Jue.
Since she became pregnant, Helian Jue has been staying with her every day and even talking to the two children before going to bed at night. His efforts have finally paid off.
The Queen Mother only had time to look at Qin Yanning now. She looked at Qin Yanning with a smile on her face.
Now in her mind, Qin Yanning’s importance cannot be compared to that of a god who saves people from suffering.
In the past ten years, she suffered from the fact that Helian Jue had no children of his own and could not sleep day and night.
But he didn't expect that in one day, he would have grandchildren.
There are two of them, one is fair and tender, the other is dark and strong!
The Queen Mother held Qin Yanning's hand and said with a smile, "Ning'er, you have indeed worked hard this time. I will definitely reward you well!"
"Mother has already made all the arrangements for the coronation ceremony. Once you've recovered from your confinement, we'll choose an auspicious day for the coronation."
Qin Yanning quickly expressed his gratitude.
But the Queen Mother held her down and prevented her from getting up.
"Why are you so fussy? Just lie down and rest."
Qin Yanning then obediently said, "Thank you, mother."
The Queen Mother turned and instructed Ruixue, "Pass on my order. Your Majesty is delighted to have a prince or princess, and the whole palace will be greatly rewarded."
Ruixue received the order and happily retreated.
Helian Jue was happily holding Yu'er in his arms when he felt a warm current passing through his body. When he looked again, he found that Yu'er had urinated.
For a moment, everyone started laughing.
