Chapter 2 Becoming a Prince



Li Chengyu frowned under the pressure of a huge sense of crisis, which made Emperor Mingxi, who was always paying attention to him, feel his cuteness again.

He stared at it intently and thought of something else.

"My beloved, I have picked several names for my son, but I feel that none of them are suitable for him. Please help me with some suggestions."

The imperial concubine tried to stay calm, but she didn't dare to look into Emperor Mingxi's eyes, and she was obviously afraid.

But she was the mother of the future crown prince and later the empress of Dazhao. If she was afraid of her own husband, she would inevitably be criticized.

And no matter what, she will be fine.

Touching the face of her precious baby in her arms, the imperial concubine felt infinite confidence in her heart.

Li Chengyu thought his mother was teasing him, so he smiled with his eyes curved to give her face, which made the imperial concubine very happy.

No need to be afraid, I said softly

"Your Majesty, I think Chengyu is very good. Yu means rich. I hope your son will have a worry-free life."

Emperor Mingxi also liked this name and decided on it immediately.

"I will govern this country well and hand over a prosperous era to my son. I will ensure that he lives a life without worries. Therefore, my son will be named Chengyu."

Emperor Mingxi took Li Chengyu from the imperial concubine's arms again and said, "Chengyu, your name is Yan Chengyu, the sweetheart of my father."

The imperial concubine had never seen this wise emperor be so gentle.

For a moment, I didn't find him scary anymore.

Yan Chengyu was also very happy. His name was the same as before. It seemed that his cheap father had good taste. He did not hesitate to smile and showed his cheap father a toothless smile.

He wasn't cute, but rather a bit scary. But in the eyes of Emperor Mingxi, Yan Chengyu was perfect in every way.

Sure enough, seeing that his cheap father was much happier, he held him and walked around the hall, trying to cheer him up.

"I hereby declare that the Imperial Concubine, for her meritorious service in giving birth to the Crown Prince, shall be appointed Empress. Instruct the Ministry of Rites to arrange the matter."

Crown Prince? Wu Zhonghe wasn't too surprised. After all, this position was definitely for the young prince.

But being crowned the Crown Prince just three days after birth, wouldn't that be too much of a blessing? The Imperial Concubine also thought so, "Your Majesty, the prince is still young. How can he withstand the ceremony of being crowned?"

Emperor Mingxi stopped smiling and waved his hand, "It's alright! My son and I are related by blood, so he will definitely be in good health."

He had already asked high monks and lay Buddhists to perform rituals. If there was any disaster, he would be the only one to bear the responsibility. He was the son of heaven, so how could he not protect his own children?

Yan Chengyu was deeply moved. His stepfather really loved him.

Regardless of whether it was because he was the only child, his father loved him just as much.

I will never call him cheap dad again.

Yan Chengyu wanted to get closer to his father, but his mind had been too active just now and he was a little tired now.

Emperor Mingxi saw his son's eyes opening and closing, so he slowed down his pace and shook his arms slightly.

He waited until his son fell asleep in his arms before placing Yan Chengyu next to the queen.

Emperor Mingxi kept his eyes on the child. After a while, he pondered and said, "My son is still young, so the third-day bath ceremony is unnecessary. We can arrange it properly at the centenary banquet. In a few days, I will go and show the child to the civil and military officials. This will reassure them."

Not only had he waited too long for this child, but all the officials had also waited too long.

His appearance meant that there was a successor to the throne, and the prime ministers no longer had to worry about the foundation of the country being shaken.

Emperor Mingxi was busy with government affairs, so he left after staying for a while.

This short period of parent-child time was squeezed out by him.

This made Emperor Mingxi want to delegate some power to the prime ministers. After all, he would not have to review so many memorials and would have more time to accompany his children.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty only cares about the prince. Why doesn't he care about you? You gave birth to the prince."

Many palace attendants retreated, and Yunxing was combing the queen's black hair while feeling indignant.
