I personally collected my son's remains."
National mourning...
Everyone present was surprised. Wu Zhonghe looked at Emperor Mingxi's stern gaze and did not dare to say anything to persuade him.
The remains, are you talking about me?
Li Chengyu's drowsy mind suddenly became clear.
Help, he's not dead yet!
But the baby couldn't make any sound and couldn't open his eyes.
Li Chengyu, fearing that he would be buried in the ground soon, used all his strength to just hold onto a piece of the smooth thing.
Emperor Mingxi stood up, but his hair seemed to be caught on something.
He felt heartbroken. Could it be that the prince also couldn't bear to leave his father?
The next second, his eyes widened in joy, "Imperial Physician! Imperial Physician!"
"The emperor grabbed my hair. He moved, but he's not dead!"
Emperor Mingxi himself was speaking incoherently.
The imperial physician, believing the emperor was suffering from excessive grief and hallucinations, hurried over on his knees to feel his pulse, not caring that the emperor was in front of him.
Fearing that he had gone mad, he rolled and crawled, "All the doctors, come and check the prince's pulse."
A moment later, the imperial doctors exchanged a look of relief. They knelt in perfect order, "Your Majesty is so blessed and so compassionate that the little prince has been brought back to life!"
Instantly, people inside and outside the palace knelt down and said, "Your Majesty is blessed with great fortune, and the little prince is blessed by heaven."
Many people wiped away tears.
The empress dowager hurried over here after waking up and heard the news.
"Aiya, is it that your ears are not working well?" The Queen Mother was no longer as graceful and elegant as before, and looked around with lifeless eyes.
Her hand was supported by the nanny, and the nanny beside her was so tight that it hurt, but Nanny Yu, immersed in ecstasy, didn't care. "Empress Dowager, the little prince was born safely."
The Queen Mother closed her eyes and fainted.
But this time, unlike before, everyone was in a state of panic. Instead, everyone was in high spirits.
"Issue an order to grant amnesty to the world and pray for the emperor's son. Hahaha! I will make golden statues of Bodhisattvas and ancestors to fulfill my vow." Emperor Mingxi was so happy that he went crazy since the imperial concubine became pregnant.
He worshipped all the gods and Buddhas in the sky, but after being happy for a while, he felt something was wrong.
Don’t babies cry when they are born?
"Why isn't the prince crying?" Emperor Mingxi was very panicked.
The experienced imperial physician said "forgiveness" and started to slap Li Chengyu's butt left and right.
Only when the pain came did Li Chengyu let out a weak cry.
Seeing the child crying, Emperor Mingxi felt relieved and reluctantly handed the child to the wet nurse.
We can’t let the prince starve.
Finally, he didn't have to be buried alive. Feeling hungry, Li Chengyu drank milk in big gulps.
While thinking about the message the system sent him.
He had traveled through time and space into a book. His adopted father was an emperor. He was a wise ruler, but he was childless. Not even one of his concubines was pregnant.
When she was forty years old, she gave birth to a baby, but the baby died within two days.
His stepfather went mad, suspecting everyone of his son's murder. He went on a killing spree, leaving the entire capital city a river of blood and cries of grief.
Killing all the relatives made them feel insecure.
My stepfather was so sad that he died within two years.
His father was a man of decisive actions, so no one rebelled during his lifetime. After his death, without his suppression, rebellions broke out in various places.
It caused great suffering to the people.
And he came through here to change this situation.
Looking at the data on the system showing a 7-day life countdown,
Li Chengyu's eyes turned black and he wanted to cry but had no tears.
God wants to kill him. If he hadn't activated the system and received the reward after he was born, wouldn't he have died as soon as he came out?
Li Chengyu struggled to observe the system in his mind.
The message on the meeting board reads: You can get rewards by simply interacting with someone who carries good fortune and eliciting strong emotions from them.
Contact? Li Chengyu pouted. He was just a little baby, how could he contact others?
There is still a long way to go.
"Look, Concubine, the little prince is drinking milk so seriously, he's so cute." After giving the Concubine a simple wipe, Yunxiang kept staring at Li Chengyu.
She wanted to praise him to the skies, and even the purple skin caused by difficult labor did not affect her feeling that the little prince was adorable.
The imperial concubine leaned on the cushion, her whole body radiating maternal radiance. "My son has suffered, it's all because of me who insisted on going out for a walk."
Looking at the tiny figure, the imperial concubine felt as if she were soaking in honey. But when she saw the child's purple skin, she couldn't help but wipe away her tears.
"Your Majesty, you can't say that. Who among all the concubines in the palace doesn't envy you? You were favored and conceived the emperor's heir. The little prince loved you and was born into your womb!"
Yunxiang looked disapproving, she believed from the bottom of her heart that the imperial concubine was blessed with great fortune.
Otherwise, how can we explain that there was no news from the three palaces and six courtyards, but only their queen became pregnant overnight?
The imperial concubine was so coaxed by Yunxiang that she smiled happily and kept her eyes fixed on the child.
If it weren't for this child, she would still be just a palace maid.
After serving the emperor in bed, she only got the lowest rank of concubine. When she was pregnant, she couldn't believe that she had such good luck.
The imperial physician who treated her was directly promoted to the rank of judge in the upper court, and she was directly promoted to become a noble concubine.
For more than eight months, she suspected day and night that she was dreaming, until the child was born.
Seeing that the child was full, the imperial concubine gently held Li Chengyu in her arms and said, "My dear son."
Thinking of the child's premature birth and the fact that he had been in her belly for too long, a trace of guilt flashed in the concubine's eyes.
"Ding—obtain a wisp of Guilt from the Imperial Concubine, and a bonus of +3 Lifespan."
Li Chengyu, who was enjoying his mother's love, was shocked. He could live for nine more days after getting three days of life for free!
Li Chengyu happily buried his head in his mother's arms, but found that the same person could only extract it once a day...
It seems that he will need to interact with more other people in the future, but Li Chengyu is also wondering if someone else was behind his premature birth.
If someone harms him, what should he do? Let's load up this invulnerable physique first.
Babies get tired easily, and Li Chengyu closed his eyes as he thought about it.
Seeing the child in her arms fall asleep, the imperial concubine whispered, "Yunxiang, do you remember why I want to go out?"
Yunxiang's eyes fixed, "What the Queen meant..."
The candlelight flickered in the room, and a faint black shadow was reflected on the screen.
