Mrs. Gao is about to give birth, and the entire Gao Mansion is making preparations. Everyone was looking forward to giving birth to a boy, and when Xie Xiwen was not pregnant, he kept going to the temple to burn incense and ask for a child. After she became pregnant, she kept going to the temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha, hoping to give birth to a boy. The body was very heavy and inconvenient to move, so the two maids took her place and went to the temple to pray for blessings. In order to show his sincerity, Xie Xiwen also donated more than 1,000 taels of silver to the merit box in the temple.

conceived in October, Xie Xiwen ushered in the last fight. As the time for childbirth approached, she felt anxious and frightened, and her face turned burnt.

The sky has just darkened, the lights are like jade, the night rain is dashing, the small raindrops gently beat the bouquets, and the dark fragrance floats. Xie Xiwen felt a faint pain in her stomach, and a maid helped her to lie down on the bed. After a while, instead of feeling the pain lessen, she felt heavier. Afraid that she was going to give birth, she hurriedly greeted the maid: "Jin'er, go and inform the master, I'm about to give birth." Suddenly, there was chaos in the house.

Gao Junming personally went to invite the midwife.

The midwife took out the medicinal powder and instructed the maid: "This can help the lady give birth smoothly, you go and use hot water to wash it over." The maid looked at it, and smelled it again, like ordinary herbs, and thought that it was fine, so she did what the midwife said.

Xie Xiwen endured the severe pain and drank the medicine.

The midwife and the maid were busy in the room. Xie Xiwen shouted hoarsely, her wet hair sticking to her forehead. However, just keep in labor, but you can't survive. Gao Junming waited anxiously outside the house, and said to Li Zhenghang, who rushed over: "Even in the early years on the battlefield, I was never so scared. ”

After a while, the midwife ran out with blood on her hands, and said anxiously: "Lord Gao, Madame is afraid that it is difficult to give birth." ”

"Didn't you drink the medicine?"

"The fetal position is not correct, which can be guaranteed by drinking medicine."

"What then?"

"When a woman has a difficult birth, the evil spirit possesses her body and suffers from it, but if she recites the scriptures sincerely, the demons and spirits will retreat and she will be able to give birth in peace." The people hurried to find the scriptures, and they all began to recite them. Gao Junming and Li Zhenghang were helpless, and they also recited scriptures there. After a while, Gao Junming was very irritable, slammed the scripture in front of him, and shouted: "How can you save the lives of your wife and children in this way!" ”

"If something happens to Madame, I will take you to the funeral with you!" Gao Junming shouted at his subordinates and the midwife.

"Tall, sir." The midwife was terrified and said tremblingly, "Only the Rejuvenation Pill can save the lives of the lady and the little master." ”

Gao Junming inquired everywhere and found out that this rejuvenation pill was only a few pills that Pei Wenjing had purchased from a foreign country, and there was nowhere else to find it. He suddenly remembered that Pei Wenjing came to the house a few days ago to beg him. The subordinates all persuaded: "Master, for the sake of Madame, I can only go and beg Master Pei." ”

How could Gao Junming beg Pei Wenjing! The servant still persuaded: "Master, nothing is as important as Madame's life." Gao Junming knew that what they said was very reasonable, and he hesitated to walk towards Pei's mansion.

Halfway through, the housekeeper hurriedly came to report: "Master, my wife has given birth!" gave birth to a little master. ”

Gao Junming was pleasantly surprised, and hurried back to the house to see his wife and newborn son. The moment I saw the child, the heart that hung on my throat finally fell. An indescribable excitement, joy, and the glory of being a first-time father filled his body, and this feeling made him completely forget about the rejuvenation pill.

After a long time, Gao Junming remembered and asked the maid beside him: "Isn't Madame a difficult birth?" A child was born so soon? ”

"Back to the master, it was Master Pei's mansion that sent the rejuvenation pill."

Gao Junming immediately understood everything, this time he was bound to enter the palace to see the emperor, and he had no choice. Gao Junming, who has always been smart, was eaten to death this time, and he was gracious to defeat the enemy, this trick is indeed superb. Even if there are worries, not to mention how excited and happy they are, they are more grateful to their wives for their hard work. He looked at Xie Xiwen and said in a grateful tone: "Thank you for your hard work." ”

Xie Xiwen smiled, knowing that the previous torture had paid off.

"What name is the master going to give the child?" Xie Xiwen asked.

"It's going to have to be good."

The next day, it was a fine day, and the garden of Gaofu was filled with the strong fragrance of flowers and the song of yellow birds. Gao Junming's mood is also inexplicably good.

Had breakfast.

"Hurry up and prepare the car, I want to go to the palace." Gao Junming commanded.

Directly took the car towards the palace, arrived at the side gate where the courtiers entered the palace, got off the carriage, and began to walk.

Gao Junming was ordered to go to Wuning Palace. The palace is lavishly decorated and gorgeously furnished.

"Weichen see the emperor."

"Lord Gao is in a hurry to see me early in the morning, what's the matter?"

Gao Junming looked around and saw that Pei Wenjing was also there. "Back to the emperor, Weichen heard that the king of Qin made the emperor angry and worried about the emperor, so he came early in the morning." Gao Junming said.

"The tall lord's mansion is happy with his noble son, and he is still worried about the affairs of the court, which is really commendable."

"Your Majesty, King Qin is dedicated to the court, I hope the emperor can see the face of King Qin who is conscientious and has never been in trouble, don't worry about it anymore."

"Master Gao, do you know that he wants to investigate his younger brother thoroughly. Yuanji had a slight accident, and the people of the world couldn't get rid of it in the first place. ”

"What the emperor said is that Li Yuanji is the brother of King Qin, presumably King Qin can't do anything to make the emperor sad."

"I hope so. Gao Qing's mansion is still so worried about the country and the people at a happy event, Master Pei wants to learn from him. ”

Pei Wenjing said: "Back to the emperor, Weichen must learn from the emperor according to the emperor's intentions." Lord Gao also hoped that there would be no entanglement between King Qin and the emperor's father and son. ”

"Don't worry, two Aiqing, as long as Shimin doesn't do anything to hurt his brother, I naturally won't blame him. It's okay, the two Aiqing stand down. ”

"Yes, Weichen retired." The two walked out of Wuning Hall together, Gao Junming glanced at Pei Wenjing, and said sarcastically: "Master Pei is really a good plan." ”

Pei Wenjing replied: "As long as Mrs. gives birth smoothly, this is our common wish, isn't it?" Tall man. ”

"Yes, but my wife won't have a difficult birth for no reason!" Gao Junming's tone raised a little.

"The tall man is too worried, there have been so many women who have had difficult births since ancient times, who should and who shouldn't."

Gao Junming saw that Pei Wen's staticness was not sincere, and his clever tongue was like a spring, and his words were vague. He glared at him and said, "We'll see." After that, he left angrily.

Coincidentally, as soon as he left the palace gate, he saw Li Jiancheng getting down from the carriage. At this time, the person Gao Junming didn't want to see the most was the prince, and if he didn't want to see it, he had to see it, so he couldn't just ignore it. The struggle in his heart continued, and the prince opened his mouth first: "Isn't it a happy event in the mansion of Lord Gao?" What's the urgency, why did you enter the palace early in the morning? ”

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, there is nothing else particularly important, and my subordinates specially came to the palace to comfort the emperor." He didn't mention that he was pleading with Li Shimin.

Li Jiancheng entered the palace as usual to greet his father. "The son of the emperor greets his father."

"Built, Lord Gao Junming is really loyal to the imperial court, and he deserves to be the son-in-law of Mrs. Xie."

"What did he say?"

"He said that your second brother is also thinking about the court, so he was confused for a while. Su Ri only saw you getting closer, and this entry into the palace is enough to prove that Lord Gao is not like those courtiers who form a party for personal gain. I hate gangs above all. If those who are courtiers can be as knowledgeable as the tall people, my Tang Dynasty is just around the corner. ”

When Li Jiancheng heard these words, he was extremely unhappy in his heart, and he didn't expect Gao Junming to betray him. didn't say much, please go to peace, and go back to the house in a huff.
