Yang Shufei and Ying'er hurriedly walked to the door of the bedroom.

Zhao Dongting was stunned at this moment. My heart was filled with endless joy.

In the past, even in the face of thousands of troops and horses, in the face of the Manchu Dynasty and all the ministers kneeling, his heart had never been so turbulent.

There are only a few words flashing back and forth in my head, "I'm a father, I've got a baby!" I'm a dad......"

The door was opened.

Yang Shufei asked with excitement on her face, "Is it a boy or a girl?" ”

The midwife and the two palace maids who walked out of the door were all full of red light, and said again and again: "Congratulations to the Queen Mother, congratulations to the emperor, you are a prince." ”

"Good, good! Reward, reward! ”

Yang Shufei was naturally overjoyed for a while.

In this era, even though Zhao Dongting vigorously promoted the concept of equality between men and women, from the courtiers to the common people, the patriarchal thinking in his bones was still very heavy.

This kind of concept, which has been handed down since ancient times, is really not something that can be changed in a short period of time.

Zhao Dongting, who was covered in dust, came back to his senses and walked directly to the house.

There are also many palace maids staying inside.

Zhang Ru's personal maid carefully held the baby wrapped in a golden cloth.

Seeing Zhao Dongting walk in, he hurriedly walked in front of Zhao Dongting with the child in his arms, "Congratulations to the emperor, it's a prince!" ”

There was an unconcealable look of envy in the eyes of this personal servant.

In this era, it is very common for personal maids and masters to sleep together, and there are many examples of personal maids in the palace who are pregnant with dragon fetuses, and mothers rely on their sons to achieve concubines. This maid was also very fond of Zhao Dongting, but unfortunately, Zhao Dongting never wanted to be happy with her.

Zhao Dongting looked down at the red baby in the handmaiden's hand, looking excited, but he didn't reach out to hold the child.

It's not that I don't want to hug it, but I'm worried that my strength is not measured, and it will hurt this tender little guy.

Then he walked briskly to the bed.

On the bed, Zhang Ru's face was pale, and even the lips that were flushed in the past did not show any blood at this time. He was wrapped in a futon inlaid with dragons and phoenixes.

Zhao Dongting sat next to the bed, stretched out his hand to put Zhang Ru's messy and sweaty hair to his ear, and asked softly, "Ru'er, how are you?" ”

A beautiful smile bloomed at the corner of Zhang Ru's mouth and she shook her head gently.

Zhao Dongting was able to rush back, and she was already overjoyed.

And Zhao Dongting came over to ask her how she was as soon as she entered the house, and this kind of care made her feel that the pain she had just endured was worth it.

Zhao Dongting wiped the fine sweat on Zhang Ru's forehead again, and chuckled: "I'm sorry for you." ”

Zhang Ru still smiled and shook her head.

Liu Er, the personal maid, walked to the side of the bed with the little one in her arms and put it next to her.

Her smile suddenly softened, with a strong maternal glow. At this moment, although Zhang Ru's face was pale, she still looked extremely beautiful.

Yang Shufei and Ying'er also walked into the house.

When she arrived at the bedside, Yang Shufei's eyes immediately froze on the little guy, and she smiled from ear to ear, "The good grandson of this palace, the good grandson ......"

Ying'er looked at it with a smile.

After a long while, Concubine Yang Shu looked at Zhang Ru and said, "Concubine Jing, thank you for your hard work." You gave birth to a dragon son, which is a great contribution to our Zhao family. ”

This time, Zhang Ru smiled lightly and nodded.

Yang Shufei picked up the little guy and couldn't put it down for the little guy who had just been born and cleaned his body with warm water.

After a while, she put the little guy back to Zhang Ru, gave Zhao Dongting a gentle look, and walked out.

Zhao Dongting smiled at Zhang Ru and followed out of the house.

"Congratulations to the Queen Mother, congratulations to the Emperor!"

Everyone outside the house knelt down to congratulate the two.

Zhao Dongting waved his hand and instructed Gonggong Liu to reward these people who were waiting in the courtyard, and let them go down.

Concubine Yang Shuting took Zhao Dongting to the tree in the courtyard and asked softly, "Yu'er, do you plan to make the eldest prince the prince?" ”

In this era, there was an emphasis on the establishment of the elder rather than the young, but at the same time, there were also examples of the children born to the queen of the East Palace, and the children born to the rest of the concubines.

Concubine Yang Shufei knew that Zhao Dongting had always loved the woman who was still in the Hundred Grass Valley the most, so she asked so.

Zhao Dongting did not hesitate, shook his head slightly, and said, "No." ”

"What kind of king is that?"

Yang Shufei was not surprised by Zhao Dongting's reply, and then asked again.

Zhao Dongting couldn't help laughing, "Mother, the prince still has to be named and sealed in a hundred days, isn't it too early to talk about this now?" ”

Yang Shufei was a little dissatisfied and said: "This is the eldest prince, of course you have to prepare early." ”

Zhao Dongting scratched his head, "The child still wants to discuss with Concubine Jing." ”

"Why do you need to discuss this matter with Concubine Jing?" Yang Shufei was an accident this time.

In this era, although Zhang Ru is the biological mother, she is not qualified to give the name of the born prince at all.

Zhao Dongting said: "After all, the child was born by her. Mother, let the child make up his mind about this! ”

Yang Shufei was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, "Okay then!" ”

Since handing over all the power to Zhao Dongting, Zhao Dongting has kept the entire court in good order, and she has gradually become accustomed to letting Zhao Dongting make up her own ideas about everything.

Zhao Dongting returned to Zhang Ru's room.

On this day, he was by Zhang Ru's side all the time, and he didn't even bother to take a bath.

Concubine Yang Shufei rewarded "buns" to a few ministers in the court on his behalf.

"Buns" are actually red envelopes given to ministers by the emperor after giving birth to a dragon. There are gold and silver, rhino horns, jade, and other things.

And to receive this reward is undoubtedly a great honor for the ministers.

Of course, Zhang Ru received more rewards.

But because the war on the frontier is still going on, Concubine Yang Shu has a very measured grasp of the specifications of these rewards, and does not reward too valuable things.

At night, Zhao Dongting finally discussed with Zhang Ru what name to give the child.

Zhao Dongting finally dared to pick up the child, and after holding it, he was reluctant to let go, holding it in his arms and shaking it gently.

Zhang Ru looked at this scene and couldn't stop laughing.

Zhao Dongting asked her what the child's name should be.

Zhang Ru's eyes drooped slightly, and her smile was even richer.

Zhao Dongting instantly understood what she meant. She's letting him get the idea.

He said, "Otherwise, take my surname, your name, the big name Zhao Ru, how about it?" If you want to, this implication is also good. ”

Zhang Ru's eyes showed a slight look of thought, and then nodded slightly.

Zhao Dongting said again: "The word is called Jimin." ”

Zhang Ru nodded again.

Zhao Dongting looked down at the pink child in his arms.

The child was staring at him with round eyes. This is the purest thing in the world.

Zhao Dongting's heart seemed to be suddenly touched by something at this moment.

He said again: "Wait for him for a hundred days, and then make him the king of auspiciousness!" I wish him all the best in his life. ”

Zhang Ru was slightly stunned, and then nodded slightly.

She naturally heard that Zhao Dongting did not mean to make Zhao Ru the prince.

But she doesn't expect any of this.

As Zhao Dongting said, as long as Zhao Ru can go smoothly in this life, it is enough.

She is not an ambitious woman, and she never thought of asking Zhao Dongting to make her child the crown prince.

Zhang Ru, who has a blue heart, understands very well that there are some things, as long as they fight, there will be a gap in the relationship between her and Zhao Dongting.

The next day, Zhao Dongting led hundreds of officials from the court to the Taimiao Temple to pray for heaven and earth, ancestors, and sheji.

The Great Song Dynasty ushered in the first prince.

Universal celebration.

The city of Changsha is as lively as the New Year, and the sound of fireworks and firecrackers is endless.

And on this day, after Zhao Dongting led the hundred officials back to the palace, he left the palace again and took Hong Wutian, Le Wufu, Mrs. Xu and others to the south.

The five-year covenant with the valley lord is coming.

In addition to Le Wuwu and the others, there were also hundreds of flying dragon soldiers and soldiers.

Fast forward and days passed.

Nine Ridge Mountain.

Hole.

Two women sat on the bluestone, both in long skirts covering their legs, revealing only two pairs of embroidered shoes.

Whether it's a little older or a little younger, they can be called rare beauties in the world.

Xiao Wu asked, "Sister Saintess, the emperor should be about to arrive, right?" ”

There was some worry on her delicate face.

Because even she knows that there is only one day left before the agreement between the emperor and the holy sister. Tomorrow will be the last day of the five-year covenant.

Le Chan looked at the night sky, bit her lip lightly, and did not speak.

She told herself that the emperor would definitely come, maybe there was just something delaying. However, it is still inevitable that there are some apprehensions in my heart.

She knows about Zhang Ru and Ying'er's pregnancy.

Is it because Concubine Jing gave birth?

Will he come as scheduled?
