Tyrannical Wang’s Beloved Wife
chapter-627

The Most Esteemed Princess

Jing Wan this time was able to give birth very smoothly, not strangely going into premature labor either. It was just sleeping until morning, getting up to go to the toilet, and afterwards, discovering blood below, her stomach also having faint pain.

Jing Wan was actually very composed, and because the circumstances were special, there were people following by her side at all times. That’s why, she just called over the palace maid. That palace maid was first alarmed, but shortly after, calmed down, turning around to instruct the people outside, immediately making preparations.

Li Hong Yuan also rushed over first thing, his brows tightly furrowed. As time approached, his mood wasn’t any better than the first time. He immediately just wanted to send her to the delivery room.

“No hurry, it won’t be that quick. First let someone prepare water, I want to take a bath.”

Li Hong Yuan’s brows just didn’t loosen, clearly very much disapproving, but he also didn’t refute Jing Wan’s intention, immediately giving the order.

He had Jing Wan carried onto the cool couch, letting her lean on him.

Jing Wan was able to clearly sense his body’s rigidness. His body that originally has just maintained a whole body of hard muscles for several decades, right now, just felt even harder.

“Don’t worry, this time, it will certainly be smooth and unhindered, absolutely won’t have any problems.” Jing Wan reached out to caress the side of his neck, attempting to pacify him.

Li Hong Yuan looked down at Jing Wan’s stomach, “If not smooth, then once the little brat is born, regardless whether it’s a boy or girl, this emperor will immediately have them thrown out of the capital, forever not knowing their own identity in this lifetime, and forever unable to see their own mother in this lifetime.” That voice was as cold as icicles.

Clearly an esteemed noble child, if really getting reduced to this level, won’t it be a bit too pitiful? This man inherently still didn’t change at all, but Jing Wan ultimately was unable to do anything about him, feeling extremely helpless, “Can’t you just hope for me to be well?”

“Not hoping for you to not be well. I’ve always wanted you to be healthy from beginning to end, not suffering the slightest hardship.”

Jing Wan couldn’t help but laugh, “Don’t worry, my husband is the former emperor, my son is the current emperor, with you two guarding, how can I not be well.”

“You having me is enough, son, not necessary.”

To still be able to overturn the vinegar jar at this time, it really made one speechless.

After Jing Wan bathed, she didn’t enter the delivery room that quickly either, instead getting supported by Li Hong Yuan while slowly pacing around.

Li Tian Lin and Empress Xie also rushed over first thing.

“It’s still early, so what use is there keeping watch now, and even if you stay, also won’t be of help. Just go back and take care of your own matters.” Jing Wan waved her hand to kick them out.

TN: All

Li Tian Lin had morning court to attend to today, so after hesitating, he still took his leave first. However, Xie-shi insisted on staying behind. The palace affairs for the most part were just those. She was long able to handle skillfully, so whether it was instructing a few words, or handling a bit later, it all wasn’t a problem.

At this time, Jing Wan just happened to meet with labor pains, so was also too lazy to continue saying anything.

In this hot weather, she was very quickly covered in sweat again, already don’t know how many handkerchiefs have been used to help her wipe.

As time elapsed, the labor pains came more and more frequently, also persisting even longer. When Jing Wan couldn’t endure anymore, she finally went to the delivery room. Half reclining against the bed, she had her eyes closed, also not groaning.

Li Hong Yuan sat by the bed, holding her hand, talking to her nonstop so as to divert her attention.

Jing Wan occasionally would respond a few words, smiling from time to time, in a way, also pacifying this overly nervous man.

The people to the side rather wanted to urge Li Hong Yuan to go out, but meeting his ice cold gaze, even Xie-shi all didn’t dare to say a single word, let alone others.

Jing Wan intentionally or otherwise mentioned Li Tian Lin’s birth, also telling these people that weren’t in the know that when the current emperor was born, this man was also guarding by the side. As such, there won’t be anyone trying to urge him to leave again, so as to avoid these people getting vented out on by a certain man that was deathly suppressing his dark currents.

Childbirth, no matter how smooth, still wasn’t a relaxing matter. However, compared to Jing Wan giving birth last time, it was indeed much better.

Because of having deliberately controlled the diet, the child’s size was relatively small, smoothly being born in the afternoon, a little princess.

Although Jing Wan was drained of energy, she didn’t fall asleep, first glancing at Li Hong Yuan who similarly had ‘suffered greatly’, weakly smiling, “See, it’s fine.”

Li Hong Yuan was entirely just like having gotten fished out of the waters. The child was safely born, and even though it wasn’t as frightening as last time, the rock that was pressed against his heart, in this moment, also finally lifted halfway. He leaned over, kissing Jing Wan’s forehead that was drenched in sweat, “Just nicely rest, the remaining matters, no need to worry about.”

“En.” Right now, she indeed needed to nicely rest. As for the child, with this man by the side, it was best to not mention, can only wait until after she wakes up.

Li Hong Yuan directly had Gong Jiu called in to take Jing Wan’s pulse. He needed to ensure that even if having safely given birth, there also won’t be other problems later.

The little princess got held by the empress. The empress glanced at her father-in-law who was in a sorry state, just having her mother-in-law in his eyes, then looked at her mother-in-law who’d already fallen asleep, completely not mentioning her own child, as well as the people running around, and then finally looked at her little sister-in-law in the swaddling clothes, inwardly clicking her tongue. Sure enough, a pitiful child, just like your older brother, destined to not be loved by your father, and even if your mother wants to love, also unable to love, but it doesn’t matter, in the future, sister-in-law and your imperial brother will love you.

The empress also didn’t think of having the child carried before her father-in-law to get glared at, just instructing the palace servants to nicely serve, although she simply didn’t need to say anything more. Afterwards, she just carried the newly born little sister-in-law out, preparing to let her own husband see.

Li Tian Lin was indeed waiting outside. Seeing her come out, her hurriedly went forward, “How is it?” Because Gong Jiu had gone in, his heart also couldn’t help but tighten.

“All fine, just taking the pulse for good measure.” Xie-shi said.

Li Tian Lin nodded. True, if there really was a problem, then it probably won’t be this quiet. His gaze landed in Xie-shi’s arms, “Is it a boy or a girl?”

“It’s a little sister-in-law.” Xie-shi said with a smile.

“A girl is good.” Li Tian Lin also began smiling, “Girls are all considerate little cotton-padded jackets, unlike stinky little brats, able to climb onto the roof.”

“Your Majesty is talking about yourself?” Xie-shi teased.

Li Tian Lin’s childhood, as Yuan Qi Emperor’s only child, naturally was paid attention to by all sides, his every move all taken in by others.

Towards what he was like in his childhood, Li Tian Lin was also clear himself. As such, he didn’t retort either. Boys being a bit naughty, what’s wrong with that? In any case, it’s also because he has always been raised freely, for him to have not become cold-blooded, cruel and ruthless, casually killing the palace servants, it was already not bad.

Reaching out, he had his new little sister brought into his arms. The little girl was currently sound asleep, seemingly as if the one bawling earlier wasn’t her. Li Tian Lin held her in both hands, very much firm and stable. What his children looked like when they were born, he’d also seen several times, so naturally won’t feel this little girl was ugly, “Can’t tell if she’s more like imperial father or imperial mother.”

“Regardless of who she resembles, certainly will all be a beauty.” Just, if she’s more like father-in-law, then her appearance will be even more outstanding. “Also our imperial family’s most esteemed princess.” Her two daughters similarly were di-born, but in a certain sense, they still can’t compare with the little sister-in-law.

However, her daughters didn’t have any collision of interest with the little sister-in-law. Her eldest daughter was ten years old, and her second daughter was five. The imperial son-in-laws at present won’t have their future prospects severed. As such, for them who were in different age groups, there won’t be the situation of them ‘fighting over a husband candidate’.

“That’s right, naturally the most esteemed. Our Qi Yuan now have another Grand Elder Princess.” Towards this little sister, Li Tian Lin really quite liked.

Xie-shi looked at her own husband. Her husband, aside from being strict towards their eldest son, the rest of their children, he for the most part all treated equally. It can be said to be quite good already, but precisely because he viewed them all equally, it just meant that there wasn’t the best, or the most special one. But, now that there was a contrast, towards this little sister-in-law, the feeling was just different. However, it seemingly wasn’t hard to understand either. After all, he had quite a few children, and he was constantly busy with governmental affairs everyday. His fatherly love was evenly distributed, so each person naturally wasn’t able to receive much. However, the little sister-in-law wasn’t the same. There was just this one. Additionally, because of his imperial father and imperial mother, for him to particularly cherish and love a little more, it was only natural.

Xie-shi slightly lowered her eyes, lightly sighing. He was a good husband, a good father, countless times better than many men. She shouldn’t still be greedy and unsatisfied.

Gong Jiu came out after examining Jing Wan, also looking over the little princess. The little girl’s weight although was a bit light, her body was still healthy.

“How’s imperial mother?” Li Tian Lin asked.

“Replying to your Majesty, her Highness the Empress Dowager, aside from wearing down her vital energy during childbirth, the rest is all in good health. Her Highness’s phoenix body has always been pretty good and will recover very quickly.”

“That’s good, Imperial Physician Gong has worked hard.”

“It’s this subject’s duty.” Gong Jiu to this day was still unmarried, entirely engrossed in studying medicine. And on him, he still carried the traits of a shadow guard. Unless necessary, he absolutely won’t say an extra word, carrying a deadpan face everyday.

Towards these old subordinates who have been following by his imperial father’s side since the early years, Li Tian Lin has always treated generously. In reality, his imperial father’s methods in training people sure enough were incredible. These people have never once let one be disappointed. As such, being a bit more amiable towards them wasn’t anything bad either.

When Jing Wan woke up from her sleep, she’d already changed location. Her body also felt cool and refreshed, not feeling sticky, so certainly must have gotten carefully cleaned.

Li Hong Yuan was just to the side, quietly sitting there. The palace servants were also silently waiting nearby.

The palace servant that was paying attention to Jing Wan the whole time first saw her open her eyes, hurriedly going forward, “Your Highness has waken?”

Li Hong Yuan lifted his head, casually having the book tossed aside, getting up and sitting down by Jing Wan’s bed, reaching out to stroke her temples, “How do you feel?”

Jing Wan smiled, “Quite good, just a bit hungry. Help me up.”

Li Hong Yuan easily just had Jing Wan supported up, turning his body and sitting behind Jing Wan, “The food has long been prepared.”

For many people, after giving birth, their appetite will all grow, some even particularly able to eat.

Jing Wan leaned against Li Hong Yuan, the pain on her body for the most part very faint. This bit was the best part of a smooth birth, able to recover very quickly. Last time, she’d lain in bed for a full two days before finally able to somewhat move again. “Where’s the child?”

“Li Tian Lin carried away, said that he very much likes the child, so he will raise.” Li Hong Yuan indifferently said.

Jing Wan slightly opened her mouth, “I finally gave birth after carrying in the womb for ten months, for better or worse, let me have a glance.” Aside from helplessness, it was still just helplessness. In the end, it was also just that.

“All in the palace, so would you not be able to see? Later, just let Xie-shi bring over.” Li Hong Yuan’s expression on the surface still didn’t change in the slightest.

Jing Wan felt that she, this mother, really had it easy. Her son, she’d still spent some energy on, but her daughter, now that she had her son and daughter-in-law, she really can completely toss to them. Never mind something like personally spoon-feeding, back then, when Li Tian Lin was born, she just never thought of this. If she really were to do this, don’t know how this man will act out.

After Jing Wan finished eating, she just laid back down again. The confinement period after childbirth was just like so.

However, under her was a cold jade, chilling and cool, yet won’t have any harm towards the body, so even if just laying there, it was also comfortable and refreshing, and even if not using ice, and not getting fanned, it was also fine.

A little later, Xie-shi sure enough brought the little girl over.

Li Hong Yuan for once even gave face, getting up and leaving.

Jing Wan finally had the chance to see her little daughter. Compared to her son back then, she was indeed much smaller, appearing quite pitiful. Jing Wan inquired Xie-shi her body’s situation. After confirming that everything was all fine, Jing Wan finally relaxed a breath. For the sake of not suffering during childbirth, she’d deliberately controlled her diet. If the child were to have deficiencies in this aspect, then she would certainly blame herself and feel guilty.

“Your imperial father, you should also know. If this child were to be raised in Shouan Palace, it will for the most part just be the palace servants looking after. Raising at your place, I would instead feel a little more at ease. Just, you also have a little one that’s just one year old by your side, and now adding one more, will be troubling you.”

“What is imperial mother saying, this daughter-in-law normally is also very idle. Little sister-in-law is also easy to take care of, immediately sleeping when full, for the most part, never making a fuss. Moreover, little sister-in-law is this adorable, no matter who would all like.” Xie-shi said with a smile.

Jing Wan nodded. Regardless whether these words were genuine or not, and no matter which aspect to consider from, it was all impossible for Xie-shi to mistreat her daughter. “During my one-month confinement period, it’ll also be quite boring. If you don’t mind the air here being inauspicious, then just let your two daughters come over to keep me company.” Just consider it as returning the favor.

Xie-shi’s brows dyed with joy. Even though her two daughters didn’t need to worry about the future, but if they were to receive teachings from imperial mother, who can be said as legendary, then when mentioning, their social status will raise by another level. A woman that had nothing but a noble status versus one that had extraordinary abilities, can they even be compared? As for being inauspicious and whatnot, how can that be. Her father-in-law had even entered the delivery room.
