The Anarchic Consort

Chapter 873: The Baby Was Born

Most people could not utter words such as ‘I’ll be taking full responsibility’ like the princess consort.

However, the princess consort was extremely confident in doing so.

Outside the South Chancery, the palace people watched the two sitting together. One hugged another from behind with brushes in their hands, their side faces looked particularly appealing in the sunlight.

Helian Wei Wei could not sit still anymore and lazily propped her chin in her left palm while writing very carelessly.

Baili Jia Jue knocked her head with his finger as he said, “Your handwriting is like a dog sprawling on its stomach. How on earth do you read the Buddhist scriptures in the first place? Is this how Buddhists write?”

“Have you seen me chanting before?” Helian Wei Wei hummed twice, “That was when I felt the sun was too dazzling for me to sleep, so I put a book over my face. I’m sure you haven’t seen me when I was in Buddhism.”

Baili Jia Jue said nothing but smiled and pinched her claws again.

In fact, it would be impossible for him to not witness it before.

She was the only one who dared to behave as such in the whole of Buddhism. Each time he paid a visit, he would see her holding a scripture as a shield.

She probably thought no one would have noticed her in that position.

That being said, the proud Phoenix was but a little one who was fond of sleeping and lazy to socialize with others.

Ever since then, he had been thinking that such a little one should not be left in Buddhism, instead, it should be kept in a place where he could watch her all the time.

It would be perfect for him to feed her.

In fact, it was exactly like how he thought.

It was most appropriate for him to support the Phoenix in his embrace.

Baili Jia Jue began to laugh in a low voice.

As Helian Wei Wei could not understand the reason behind his laughter, she frowned in bewilderment.

Baili Jia Jue pulled her over to hug her again as he ordered, “Keep writing, haven’t you been nagging about developing a good prenatal education? How can my children write as ugly as you in the future?”

“Hey, prenatal education is prenatal education, you don’t have to make a personal attack on me all the time,” Helian Wei Wei spoke out in amusement.

Baili Jia Jue gently curled his thin lips, saying, “I am using a typical example to educate them so that they will remember how ugly your handwriting is. Hopefully, this will set as a reminder for them to work hard when they are born.”

Helian Wei Wei was rendered speechless.

He was so reasonable that she could not refute.

Helian Wei Wei knew that His Highness was teasing her for fun so she could not be bothered about it. She turned her head around, sat up straight and continued to write while directing Baili Jia Jue to feed her.

Their days in the South Chancery had turned into a daily routine for them and Baili Jia Ju was still the usual him who loved to take control over things.

For now, when he dealt with the edicts, he would always hold it in one hand and feed Helian Wei Wei with the other. Otherwise, he would take her along with him to exercise in bed.

If so, it would be easier during laboring.

Time flew by quickly and it was already the month of March when all over the palace was beginning to feel like the season of spring.

One day, Helian Wei Wei was sitting beside Baili Jia Jue studying her new martial arts. As she was thinking about how to combine gunpowder with cold weapons, her stomach felt a surge of pain.

Dozens of heavenly thunder rumbling through the clouds, a faint Light of Buddha could be seen in addition to the burning, blazing fire.

A glimmering scene that would usually appear in Mountain Tenya was now happening in the human world.

Everyone in the Capital walked out of their houses, facing up to look at the sky which was almost impossible to be at peace.

Inside and outside of the palace was caught in an unprecedented chaos.

Basins of hot water were constantly brought in by the palace maids while all the imperial physicians were anxiously pacing back and forth outside the royal chamber.

Even the masters of the Hidden Spirit Temple were brought into the Capital.

The Light of Buddha was shining across the room. When the midwife witnessed the scene, she could not help but recite ‘Amitabha’.

To be honest, they were all taken aback but the presence of the Third Prince by the bed refrained them from delaying any tasks.

However, deep down, she thought that the princess consort’s birth this time around was extraordinary.

Such a large amount of the Light of Buddha was not even seen in the temple before.

The midwives were forcefully suppressing their shock while preparing cotton cloth and scissors with trembling fingers, all of which could be used a moment later.

When the preparations were mostly done, the palace maid at the side whispered, “Your Highness, it’s time for you to leave.”

Baili Jia Jue turned his head toward her and spat out two words, “Get lost.”

The voice was so cold that there was not a trace of warmth.

The palace maid was too frightened to open her mouth again.

The midwives did not know how to persuade His Highness either. Reasonably speaking, when the princess consorts in the palace were giving birth, the princes would not stay there, fearing that the dirty blood would pollute the dignity of the Royal Family.

However, it was obvious that no one could request the Third Prince to leave at that moment.

The midwives had no choice but to continue…

Yet, at this moment, Helian Wei Wei started to speak with her eyes fixed on Baili Jia Jue. Her feeble voice was carried with a hint of a smile, “Can you just wait outside? I don’t want to let you see me in such a mess.”

Baili Jia Jue looked into her eyes seriously and he reached out his hand to move the strands of black hair away from her face. Then, he kissed her gently on her lips. Even if it was just a mere touch, it was enough to prove how hard he was trying to control himself, “Alright.”

In the end, he agreed to her demand.

However, his command would send chills down one’s spine at all times. “Take good care of the princess consort. If anything bad happens to her, I will make sure all of you get buried along with her.”

The midwives nodded in trepidation and took extra care of Helian Wei Wei.

Helian Wei Wei did not feel uncomfortable at all. She bit on a piece of white cloth, wearing a loose piece of clothing.

Someone tore her skirt apart with noise resonating across the atmosphere.

“Princess Consort, try a little harder. Yes, this is it…” The voices of the midwives resounded in her ears.

Helian Wei Wei adjusted her breathing and strength according to the medical knowledge she had learned in modern times. She exerted more force each time as her fingers clutched the bedsheet!

Finally, she heard the midwives saying, “Here comes the head, here comes the head! The body is almost out too!”

Upon hearing that, Helian Wei Wei bit her lips and thrust with all her might!

As fluffy black feathers fell off one by one, it welcomed the presence of a fetus with scarlet eyes being surrounded by fog!

However, he kept his eyes shut at that moment. That blushing little face made others perceive as though he was a little angel being sent from heaven.

“Princess consort, it’s a prince, a little prince!” The joy in the midwives’ voice seemed to spread across the atmosphere, causing Helian Wei Wei to chuckle as she tilted her head.

The baby was very obedient. He was sucking on his thumb quietly, unlike other children who would cry as soon as they were born.

On the contrary, he grinned from ear to ear in such an unscrupulous manner as if he was displaying his unruly hint of mockery toward the Gods and Buddhas.
