Beiyan, the 12th year of Emperor Yuan, on the eve of the Lantern Festival, the streets are extremely quiet, on this day people will prepare and rest early, in order to celebrate tomorrow's grand event. Every year on this festival, the emperors of the Northern Yan Dynasty will go to the Bagong Sacred Mountain to worship the goddess of Mayi, for this season of recovery of all things, in order to adjust the wind and rain for the peace of the country and the people.

(The Lantern Festival is a festival that connects the past and the future, it is a festival established by the ancestors of Beiyan according to the annual seasonal change cycle, it is the beginning of spring, the Bagong Mountain stretches for thousands of miles and the grassland begins to melt, and the tender grass begins to dew under the snow, so the second day of the Lantern Festival is the 'New Year' is the beginning of the new year)

At this time, the palace was brightly lit, and Doctor Pu Ming: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, Mama Liu has already entered, and the queen will give birth to the little prince safely." Emperor Yuan stopped walking around, sat down and took a sip of tea: "Well, good." Two hours later, a baby's cry sounded, and Emperor Yuan walked to the door curtain excitedly: "Did you hear Pu Ming, my child was born" "Yes, I heard it, Wang, it will come out in a while, don't worry".

"Father, did the queen mother give birth" At this time, the dusty Prince Xia Yan came back, the border has been unstable in recent years, and Xia Yan, as a prince, has to inspect the border on important festivals and special moments. Emperor Yuan turned around and just wanted to say when he saw Mama Liu coming out with the child in her arms: "Your Majesty, please see." ”

Emperor Yuan took it and frowned when he saw that the child's body was a little thin, "Your Majesty, the little prince... Mama Liu just wanted to explain the reason why the little prince was thin when she was interrupted by Xia Yan: "Father, don't worry, I will take good care of my younger brother, he will definitely become strong on the grassland." "Well, the order to go down and 'reward'."

At this time, the whole palace was immersed in an atmosphere of joy, and no one noticed that the starry sky was different tonight, just after the birth of the prince, the sky was deep, the stars disappeared, the full moon was shining, and at this special time the people of the whole kingdom were busy sleeping, only "Father, why don't you rest, tomorrow you will accompany the sacred mountain." ”

In a quiet courtyard, a soft female voice came out, and in the bright courtyard stood a man in coarse cloth clothes: "Okay, just sleep, have you rested on the sandboard?" "Senior brother, I'm afraid that this will be a dream of Zhou Gong, and I have mended all the clothes you are wearing." "Okay, go and rest." The girl walked away from the courtyard and the people were still muttering: Strange, why is the moon so big? Today happens to be the first day of the new year, how do people sleep like this, alas.

Waiting for Emperor Yuan to go in with the child, Fu Yuling happened to look over, she was half leaning on the soft couch, wearing a silk pear white undershirt, the quilt of the half-moon lotus pond was covered to the waist, a black hair, naturally hanging down, the wet hair could be seen in the light in the reflection, the pale face could not hide the joy, and the eyes were gentle and watery. "Ling'er, are you okay?" Emperor Yuan walked up to the queen and put the child down, "I'm fine, don't worry, Sen." Fu Yuling picked up the child and stroked its eyebrows: "Look how much he looks like me, Sen." "Because the eldest prince is too much like Emperor Yuan, so Yu Fu Ling thought of Donghua when he saw such a petite little son, and said that like her, in fact, what can a child see when he is so young.

Fu Yuling was a show girl in Donghua Kaitai for three years, and it happened that at that time, the first king of Northern Yan wanted to ease the relationship with Huaguo, so he hired the new emperor Emperor Jing for his second son. Not to mention the acquaintance of Fu Yuling and Emperor Yuan, nor to mention the grievances of Fu Yuling, Emperor Yuan and Emperor Jing, it is said that Fu Yuling arrived in Beiyan, and Emperor Yuan ordered the whole country to celebrate for ten days, the people welcomed them, built a special music palace, and married the queen of Yuan.

Give enough respect to the woman, but also give enough face to Huaguo, the palace is built like Huaguo Jiangnan Lezhen, Lezhen is Fu Yuling's hometown, Beiyan pays attention to women, different Chinese men and women are inferior to the hierarchy of countless beauties, even if the emperor's relatives and ministers are not more than three wives and concubines in Yan State, not to mention civilians, this relationship between the two countries is a bridge and a small choice for himself for a lifetime.

Emperor Yuan held Fu Yuling's hand: "Thank you for your hard work, Ling'er." Fu Yuling lowered her head and smiled shyly: "This is Ling'er's blessing, Sen, it's not early, I have to sacrifice to the gods tomorrow, inspect, rest early, you don't have to come to see me every day when there are many things recently, I'm fine." Emperor Yuan clasped the queen's hand: "Ling'er,。。。。 Believe me, I will solve the problem of Beiyan in less than five years, and when the time comes, I will accompany you every day to watch the sunrise and sunset and accompany you to revisit your homeland. ”

Fu Yuling choked: "Well, okay, I believe." Then Emperor Yuan went back to prepare for tomorrow's trip, everything seemed to be quiet and harmonious, the royal family added another son, and the year will begin again, what a beautiful day, full of hope, but in fact, the waves are turbulent and hidden crisis.

"Hey, I can't sleep, it's just the beginning of spring." The concubine lying on the kang looked out the window and chattered, and the room was so quiet that the four maidservants were silent, obviously accustomed to this. A woman who happened to open the curtain and came in, with a wide heart and a fat face full of red light, wearing a brown and dark red spliced robe, is a first-class palace maid here who calls her a female official of Biya, she is 10 years younger than the concubine, and she is the concubine's henchman, whose original name is Biyacha.

"Concubine, the report from Gangle Palace said: A little prince was born, and the king was very happy, and he wanted to 'reward' it." "Hehe, 'reward' is the reward, let's also reward, Sen'er he appreciates the world, I reward Ling'er. Let's go, change my clothes, and we'll see. Bijatsa hesitated: "Ancestor, it's so late, the queen is already asleep." "No, she can't sleep when Sen'er travels, it's just right, I can't sleep either, look at her going." In the blink of an eye, he was dressed neatly, dressed in a brocade dress covered with a golden snow fox cloak, with a golden hairpin on his head and deerskin boots on his feet.

"The first king blessed Beiyan, blessed the royal family, and blessed my Puya family with eternal prosperity." Standing in front of the gate of the Le Palace, the concubine prayed to the sky. Someone inside announced that the queen concubine was coming, and Fu Yuling was about to get up when she was stopped by the concubine: "Ling'er, don't get up and lie down." The concubine sat on the edge of the bed and took Fu Yuling's hand, "Ling'er, your body is fine." "Yes, the son-in-law is very good, so the queen mother is worried, I asked Mama Liu to bring the prince to show you."

"No, the child is still young, don't toss him back and forth, I'll look at it the same tomorrow, I'll just look at you today, you're the hero of my Beiyan." "Erchen is ashamed, this is the duty of Erchen." "You're just a well-behaved person, you have to take good care of the queen, and you can't make any mistakes, do you understand?" Listening to the old lady's deep voice, some palace people hurriedly replied: I understand the ancestor. The old lady looked at Fu Yuling lovingly, "I'll accompany you today and sleep well."

Before dawn, Emperor Yuan and his entourage set off, they wanted to step on the morning star on the road, facing the first rays of the morning sun to worship, accompanied by Prince Xia Yan, Prince Mu, Prince Lin, physician Pu Ming (in charge of all the doctors including the government doctor, military doctor), general Lu (in charge of Mengshan, God of War two armies), the national teacher Bingwen (in charge of civil officials), Ti Xing Si Han (in charge of all criminal cases), the historian Hemto (in charge of historical materials, books, records), the currency envoy Acre (in charge of the treasury revenue and expenditure), the capital envoy Keja (in charge of the capital political affairs), Nancheng envoy Turi (in charge of Nancheng political affairs, Nancheng Tonghua Kingdom), Xicheng envoy Titan (in charge of Xicheng political affairs, Xicheng Tongxi Liangguo), ceremonial officer Maybach (in charge of sacrifices, diplomacy), and guards. Facing the first rays of the morning sun, presided over by the ceremonial officer Maybach and led by Emperor Yuan, he stood in order and entered the goddess hall to worship and recite the sacrificial text. And the commoners have to send one person to worship on the sacred mountain, and the rest of the people worship at home, visiting the door to pray for blessings, and everyone is busy for this special festival.

At this time, the palace was in a hurry, and the situation was even worse than last night, without Emperor Yuan, there was an ancestor, there was no physician Puming, and there were 5 major doctors. In addition to Mama Liu, there is another female official Biya next to the ancestor, the palace maids go in and out, the inner servants are three layers inside and three layers outside, and the ancestor himself is in charge.

It's all because it's not dawn yet, and Fu Yuling's stomach hurts again. "Tell the mourners, what's the matter?" Looking at the majestic face of the old ancestor, the doctors looked at each other, and had to stiffen their scalps. Fucha (Good Gynecology): "Ancestor, according to Weichen's diagnosis, the queen is a twin." Yu Jiang (good surgery): "Yes, yes. Bai (good internal medicine): "Yes, Weichen thinks that the queen is about to give birth." Picture (good pediatrics): "Yes, yes, yes! "Yu Keer (good and incurable)": "Wei Chen thinks so too. ”

"You're right, these mourners know, can you say something that the mourners don't know!!" From the joy at the beginning to the panic at the back, the imperial doctor pleaded guilty in unison: "The crimes of the ministers deserve death!" The concubine waved her hand impatiently: "Okay, the queen's mother and son will spare you if they are safe and mourning, and the queen will punish you for your previous crimes if there is anything!" The doctors: "Concubine Xie is magnanimous and forgives the ministers, and the ministers will do their best." ”

Fucha: "The minister will go and prepare ginseng tablets and other medicines to help the queen support it." "Tu, Yu Keer: "The ministers also went to prepare some warm and tonic decoction in case the little prince needed." Yu Jiang and Bai: "The ministers also went to prepare the medicine for the queen's postpartum care and recuperation." The concubine bowed: "Well, let's go down." The left arm was forward, the shoulder was retracted, and he bent down and bowed: "The ministers are retired." "From the perspective of the old ancestor, Fu Yuling and Emperor Yuan set off well, but as soon as Emperor Yuan left, the queen's stomach immediately began to hurt, and there is no movement until now, and the old ancestor is also worried about it outside.

Finally, when the first rays of sunlight crossed the horizon and rose from the sacred mountain to the Le Palace, there was a movement in the house, and the cry of a child was heard in the house, and the sun was shining outside, and an auspicious cloud in the shape of a holy beast lion eagle rose from the Le Palace and floated to the Sacred Mountain, and the entire Northern Yan saw it, and bowed down one after another as a good omen.

When she heard the baby's cry, the concubine breathed a sigh of relief, "Goddess bless, ancestors shelter." The Queen Mother walked to the window with the Buddha beads, looked at the glow outside, leaned on the window, and said with a gratified face: "Acha, go and let Biyahong find someone to report to the king, go quickly." "Yes" Biya female official went out to tell her husband who had been staying here, Biya Hong immediately sent someone to report the good news to Emperor Yuan, Biya's family has always been a loyal follower of the Beiyan royal family, and has served as an important internal servant in successive dynasties, and the son of the female official and the chief of the guard also followed Prince Xia Yan as a personal guard.
