Emperor's Grace

On the third night at the border, not long after falling asleep, Zhu Yunjing's stomach suddenly started to hurt without warning. He thought it was the same as before, so he passed it, turned over and ignored it .

Half an hour later, when the servants outside the night watch heard groans and came in to watch, Zhu Yunjing was sweating profusely from the pain, convulsed all over, and was a little unconscious.

He Huailing heard the report and came in a hurry. The two doctors were busy making preparations. He Huailing walked quickly to the bed. Seeing that Zhu Yunjing was curled up on the bed, she seemed to be in extreme pain, and immediately frowned: "What's going on?" thing?"

"It's about to give birth," some older experienced doctors comforted him calmly, "It's okay, the baby will be taken out soon."

He Huailing sat down at the head of the bed, picked up Zhu Yunjing, let his upper body lean against her, and carefully wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.

The doctor reminded He Huailing: "You have to feed him the analgesic medicine."

"I'll do it." He Huailing took the medicine bowl from the doctor's hand, pinched Zhu Yunjing's chin lightly, and whispered his name in his ear, "Xique, Que'er..."

After a long while, Zhu Yunjing finally had a reaction, looking at He Huailing with confused eyes, He Huailing sighed: "Don't be afraid, you are going to give birth, drink the medicine, and the baby will come out immediately."

Handing the medicine bowl to her mouth, Zhu Yunjing subconsciously opened her lips, frowning and drank the medicinal juice of unknown flavor.

"It will take effect in a quarter of an hour at the latest, and be patient." After the doctor finished speaking, he went to the outside room to continue preparations.

Zhu Yunjing leaned against He Huailing, squinting his eyes weakly, the medicine took effect quickly, and after the body gradually became numb, even the pain disappeared. He Huailing lowered his head and touched his pale and bloodless side face with his lips: "Still Does it hurt?"

Zhu Yunjing shook her head slightly, and said in a hoarse voice, "I don't feel it anymore."

"That's good."

Seeing that He Huailing's eye circles seemed to be red, Zhu Yunjing's lips twitched, and a smile appeared on his face: "Why are you crying?"

He Huailing's hand holding him trembled slightly: "...No."

Zhu Yunjing "tsk": "Are you so excited? You seem to be more nervous than me."

"I'm just worried about you... sorry."

"What apology? Do you think I'm sorry for asking me to give birth to you?" Zhu Yunjing nodded. me."

He Huailing: "..."

Soon Zhu Yunjing was no longer in the mood for joking, the doctor was ready to enter the room, when the clothes were lifted, he subconsciously closed his eyes, He Huailing also turned his head, unable to bear to look.The knife that had been rubbed with strong wine and scuffed with fire slowly opened a hole in Zhu Yunjing's abdomen. One of the two doctors performed the knife, and the other did it. Not long after, with a cry of "wow", one wrinkled Baba's bloody baby was taken out.

He Huailing only glanced at it and then turned his attention back to Zhu Yunjing. Zhu Yunjing never opened his eyes, but his eyelashes kept trembling slightly.The nurse who had been waiting for a long time took the child outside to wash it, and the sweaty doctor continued to sew up the wound.

Another half an hour later, after the wound was sutured, the wound was sprinkled with powdered medicine and wrapped with gauze, and the two doctors breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

He Huailing asked them: "What kind of medicine is this?"

"What speeds up the healing of the wound can also prevent the wound from festering and pus. Don't worry, Hou Ye, as long as the medicine is changed once a day, the wound will heal within a month or so."

"I still don't feel anything," Zhu Yunjing finally said, with a hoarse voice, "When will the effect of the medicine pass?"

"In a few hours, after the effect of the medicine wears off, the wound will feel a little sore, and you may still have a fever, but it doesn't matter, just drink a few more medicines and you'll be fine."

Zhu Yunjing nodded wearily, and the nanny came forward to congratulate them with the baby wrapped in swaddling clothes: "Congratulations to Lord Hou, congratulations to Lord Hou, happy son!"

Before He Huailing said anything, Zhu Yunjing said first: "Hold some, show me."

The nanny took a step forward and brought the baby to them. The little baby who had drunk the milk was already asleep, and her face was wrinkled into a ball. She was neither tender nor cute, but the nanny smiled and said, "Young master and Hou!" Grandpa looks very similar, at first glance, they are father and son!"

Zhu Yunjing glanced at He Huailing, then at the baby doll in Nanny's hand: "..." Where did this look so similar?

"He's so ugly." Zhu Yunjing said in disgust.

He Huailing smiled lowly: "Children are born like this, just grow up."

Zhu Yunjing didn't believe it: "Can you grow well if you are so ugly?"

"Sure, you and my child won't be ugly."

Zhu Yunjing's ears turned red, and she turned her eyes away: "I'm so tired, I want to take a rest."

"Okay." He Huailing asked the nanny to take the child down, ordered someone to clean up the house, paid rewards to the doctor and the waiters, and sent them out, while she stayed to accompany Zhu Yunjing.

It was almost Yin time, Zhu Yunjing yawned continuously, didn't think too much, and soon fell asleep, He Huailing tucked him in the quilt, and stood by.

The analgesic was still effective, Zhu Yunjing slept soundly, He Huailing's fingertips rubbed gently between his brows for a moment, and the corners of her lips curled up silently.

It was noon when Zhu Yunjing woke up again, and as soon as Zhu Yunjing opened his eyes, he saw He Huailing sitting beside him reading a book. He tried to move his body, but when he touched the opening of his abdomen, he let out a soft "hiss" in pain, and He Huailing put it down. The book in his hand leaned over and pressed his shoulder: "Don't move, does it hurt?"

Zhu Yunjing gritted her teeth and said, "It hurts."

"It's like this when the medicine is over. The doctor just came to check your pulse. There's nothing wrong with it. You should eat something first and then drink the medicine."

Zhu Yunjing couldn't get out of bed, He Huailing sat by the bed and fed the porridge that had been boiled into his mouth spoon by spoon, but Zhu Yunjing was a little absent-minded: "... Where is the child?"

"I ate milk and fell asleep an hour ago."

"I can sleep like this."

Zhu Yunjing muttered something in a low voice, and He Huailing smiled lightly: "You want to see him, when he wakes up, I'll ask someone to carry him over."

"……never mind."

He Huailing said again: "Have you thought about who the child is called?"

Zhu Yunjing was puzzled: "Of course your eldest son has your surname, and you choose the name. How do I know if there are any rules in naming your family?"

The smile in He Huailing's eyes grew stronger. After thinking for a while, he said, "Then call him He Qiyu. The He family is all from the Qizi generation, and the Yuzi is also good. What do you think?"

"He Qiyu?" Zhu Yunjing read it twice, then nodded, "Okay."

"What about the nickname? Your Highness, can you give the child a nickname?"

Zhu Yunjing rolled her eyes and blurted out: "Yuanbao."

He Huailing: "...The name really fits the meaning of Yu, so let's leave it at that."

Zhu Yunjing snorted softly: "Are you not satisfied and just say it?"

"No, you are also the father of the child. The names you choose are all good, Yuanbao is very good,"

"...I see that you are obviously very reluctant."

He Huailing laughed: "No, it's an interesting name, that's all. There's another thing, I've helped you figure out your new identity. Your ancestral home is Jingzhou, and you're the grandnephew of a family friend of my grandfather's. The family is from a scholarly family with a good family tradition, and their surname is also Xie."

Zhu Yunjing gave a "hmm" and said, "It's fine if you don't reveal your secrets."

"It's just that Yuan Bao's status as the eldest son is a bit difficult. The eldest son is going to be granted the title by the court. If you are willing to marry me and have the status of Mrs. Hou, Yuan Bao will be a natural son, but the age has to be changed by one year. Please wait until next year to seal it."

Zhu Yunjing raised her eyebrows: "After all, you still want me to be your Madam Hou, so how do you plan to explain my presence here?"

"This is easy to handle. Let me say that my grandfather saw that I was not too young and came to the border again. He was afraid that I would not find a suitable person here, and I would not be able to start a family, so he made the decision to help me meet in Jingzhou. I got married, and my stepmother also agreed, and things will be done. After another two months, when the weather gets warmer and your body recovers, we will hold a wedding, so you don’t need to have so many taboos when you appear in front of people in the future. "

"...Then where is your grandfather?"

"Just let them know, and they don't need to care about the rest."

Zhu Yunjing narrowed her eyes slightly: "Be honest, how long have you been thinking about these things?"

He Huailing smiled and confessed: "I've been planning this since I was in Beijing, Que'er, just agree. If you don't like it, we'll just be a fake couple. After you have this identity, it will be easier for you to do anything, and it will be easier for you." Don’t need to hide in Tibet anymore, isn’t that good? And this is a border gate, you don’t need to socialize as Mrs. Hou, even if there is, I will help you push it away, you don’t have to worry about it.”

Zhu Yunjing was silent. After a long time, he lowered his eyes and asked in a low voice: "If one day I want to leave, will you let me go?"

"...If you really can't keep you, I will admit it."

"Okay then, I promise you."

"Okay, then I'll let someone take care of it first."

He Huailing didn't say anything else, after feeding the porridge and bringing in the medicine, Zhu Yunjing felt inexplicably uncomfortable, he could feel that He Huailing was quite happy at the beginning, but just because of his two words, He Huailing was somewhat disappointed .

But Zhu Yunjing couldn't make any empty promises. He didn't believe in love at all. He used to treat Xu Shixian just for sex, but later it was purely a matter of face. Now it's He Huailing, even if he knows that he is moved, Whether it will last for a long time is anyone's guess.

The atmosphere in the room became a little dull for a moment, until the sudden sound of a baby crying, He Huailing frowned slightly: "Yuan Bao cried too loudly, I'm afraid it will disturb you, I'd better move him to another yard. "

Zhu Yunjing glanced towards the window subconsciously: "You... ask someone to bring him to me."

The nurse brought the child in, and Zhu Yunjing took it in an awkward posture. The body of this little thing was too soft, and it was very uncomfortable to hold it in her arms. Zhu Yunjing's hands froze and she didn't know what to do. Mammy pointed at the side.

The little baby opened a slit of eyes, Zhu Yunjing poked his tender tofu-like face curiously, and laughed softly: "It's still ugly."

He Huailing said helplessly: "It's only a day, it won't happen so fast."

Zhu Yunjing pouted, how could his son be so ugly, if he hadn't seen this little thing cut out of his stomach with his own eyes, he would have suspected that someone had replaced it with a fake one.

"Forget it, let him stay. He's only this young, so don't move around."
