The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 180 Nian Duan has a daughter
When the chaos was about to end, a happy event also arrived.

Nian Duan is about to give birth.

Ying Zheng attached great importance to his first child.

Also for the sake of Nian Duan's concern and safety, she was brought into the palace to rest during her pregnancy. A palace was specially arranged for her, and it was announced to the public that she was in seclusion.

All arrangements and care were done in the best possible way. Such a big commotion could not be hidden from anyone with ulterior motives.

Although no one dares to say it.

When Zhao Ji learned about this, the corners of her mouth twitched.

Good, you unfilial son, very good.

No wonder Nian Duan was often summoned to the palace. I was worried that something was wrong with your health. Well, so it was this kind of thing.

He didn't even say a word to me. What a rebellious son.

Now that I am about to give birth, I realize how capable you are.

Nian Duan is already of such age, not much younger than me, yet you have the guts to do that to him!

That's not right, when did you start? !
As for Mi Yun, her situation was even worse.

She had always thought that she was pregnant with the king's eldest son, but she didn't expect that the old woman had gotten the child first!
When Mi Yun heard the news, he broke out in a sweat and couldn't sleep day or night.

No matter how An Ping and Lan Xu tried to comfort her, it was of no use. In the end, she had no choice but to take a decoction to calm the fetus and soothe the nerves for the safety of the fetus before she could fall asleep.

It's no wonder that Mi Yun has a poor self-control. This child of hers is of great importance. The eldest son of a monarch is really too important. A man always has expectations for his eldest son.

Especially Mi Yun’s noble status and involvement with the previous dynasty.

This eldest son was related to her own position as queen, to the wealth and honor of countless people in the previous dynasty, and to the fate of countless people in Qin and Chu.

Mi Yun was not afraid even if a maid of lowly status was pregnant with her eldest son, but now a new idea suddenly came to her mind.

Nian Duan's status and reputation are much greater than any princess.

There are still some concerns now, but in the future, everything is uncertain.

If the king is willing to damage his own reputation a little and Nian Duan wants to compete, then this child naturally has a very high prestige base, and is more than just a strong rival.

Not only Mi Yun couldn't sleep, the entire Chu family couldn't sleep.

The entire Chu family is praying for one thing, that Master Nian Duan would be pregnant with a girl.

The world is in chaos now, and too many people in the court have already sensed the consequences. Our king is too powerful and still so young. We cannot even imagine his future achievements.

The king has made friends with the State of Chu by marrying concubines from the harem, which shows that the king does not mind the harem being somewhat involved with the previous dynasty. In this case, why don't you quickly make investments in advance? If you wait until the prosperity comes before joining, it will be too late.

Ying Zheng is now waiting outside the palace, and Nian Duan is giving birth.

Even Ying Zheng was feeling a little impatient now.

If I hadn't felt the steady and prosperous aura in the hall, I would have been unable to calm down.

For Ying Zheng, both boys and girls were conflicted.

It's hard to describe how emotions and politics are intertwined.

Nian Duan was the first woman in Ying Zheng's life, and he had a deep and special feeling for her.

Kind character, gentle and intellectual personality, a soul as bright as the endless moonlight, and beauty that will never fade like the starry sky.

Ying Zheng certainly hopes that Nian Duan can give birth to his eldest son, and this child may even inherit an unprecedentedly large empire in the future!
But Ying Zheng didn't want it to be a boy.

This means that the child is destined to experience unimaginable, endless targeting and scheming, and even fratricide.

The power field is always too cruel.

Ying Zheng is too young now.

When Ying Zheng was lost in thought, he suddenly heard the cry of a baby in the hall, and felt the breath of new life. After a while, a midwife came out of the hall and quickly stepped forward to announce the good news.

She knelt down and shouted, "May the king be blessed with good fortune. Mother and daughter are safe. Congratulations to the king. Congratulations to the king."

Ying Zheng smiled slowly and said, "Okay, all of them will be rewarded generously."

He breathed a sigh of relief, but even Ying Zheng didn't understand what he felt at that moment.

Ying Zheng walked quickly into the hall, and the midwives hurriedly bowed and congratulated him. Ying Zheng waved his hand and told them to get busy.

Nian Duan was already very tired, with sweat soaking through her clothes, her hair disheveled, and her face pale, revealing her extremely delicate beauty.

Now she was leaning on the couch holding the child, her face full of joy. The child had stopped crying in Nian Duan's arms.

Oh, so I had my meal, no wonder I didn’t cry.

She had delivered many babies, but this was her first time.

Seeing Ying Zheng coming in, Nian Duan wanted to get up but was too weak. Ying Zheng immediately stepped forward, sat on the edge of the couch and held Nian Duan in his arms.

"No need to be polite."

He held Nian Duan's hand, held the child in his arms, and injected true Qi into Nian Duan's body to strengthen her body and recuperate.

After a long while, Ying Zheng looked at Nian Duan's arms and said with a smile: "Let me see the child, our child."

The child in her arms had almost finished eating and was now asleep. Nian Duan moved the child to Ying Zheng's side.

Ying Zheng looked at it carefully and found that the newborn baby was really not good-looking, but this child had his and Nian Duan's blood, and would definitely be a top beauty in the future.

But the more Ying Zheng looked at her, the happier he became, and the more he liked her, the more he liked her. The feeling of blood connection was indescribable.

Ying Zheng stretched out his index finger and lightly touched the child's forehead, transferring a bit of innate true Qi to him. He led the innate true Qi in the child's body to circulate together, passing through the twelve meridians and planting the true Qi seed in the Niwan Palace.

From now on, as long as you chant every day to drive this true Qi to circulate through the twelve meridians, and use your own true Qi to nourish it to ensure that it does not dissipate, the child will have a smooth journey on the path of cultivation.

The child is still young, so there is no need to make things too complicated. The twelve meridians are the most important veins in the body. It is enough to drive them into operation and ensure that the innate true qi does not dissipate.

After doing all this, Ying Zheng smiled and said, "This is my eldest daughter. I will make sure that this child will be rich and worry-free and live a happy life."

Nian Duan leaned on Ying Zheng's arms, her head against his chest, looking at the child in her arms with endless tenderness in her eyes. She said softly, "As long as the child is healthy and safe, that's all that's fine."

Nian Duan rubbed her head against Ying Zheng's chest and said, "Your Majesty, this is our child. I finally have your child."

Ying Zheng's heart softened, he kissed Nian Duan's forehead, and said with a smile: "One is not enough, I need more in the future, both sons and daughters, give me more children."

Nian Duan leaned against Ying Zheng's chest shyly and didn't say anything, but she didn't object.

Ying Zheng continued, "I have already thought of a name for the child. It is Yi, Ying Yi."

Nian Duan raised his head and looked at Ying Zheng infatuatedly, reciting softly:

I am a green and beautiful girl, I am among the flowers. When I see a gentleman, I am happy and well behaved. I am a green and beautiful girl, I am among the flowers. When I see a gentleman, my heart is happy.

I am a green and green person, in the hills. Now that I have met a gentleman, I have been blessed with a hundred friends.

The Yang boat floats up and down. When I see a gentleman, my heart is at peace. "

Ying Zheng smiled and said, "That's right. Nian'er is happy and polite when she sees me. I am also happy when I see Nian'er. We are both happy and polite."

"Yier was born to be a favored daughter of heaven, and I also want Yier to be happy with everything in the future!"

"You and your daughter are both the apple of my eye."

Nian Duan scolded: "Your Majesty, you should not spoil this child too much. Born in the royal family, if you spoil him too much, it will only hurt others and yourself."

Ying Zheng kissed Nian Duan and said with a doting smile: "I know you and will teach you well."

"Just stay in the palace for the time being. When the child grows up, you can do your own things. This palace will always be reserved for you. I will ask the Queen Mother to take care of Yi'er. The Queen Mother loves children the most. With the Queen Mother taking care of them, you don't have to worry about anything."

Nian Duan nodded slightly.

Ying Zheng went on to say: "That's settled then, Nian'er, take a good rest first, thank you for your hard work." As he spoke, he gently tapped Nian Duan's forehead.

Nian Duan was indeed extremely tired. Even with the help of Ying Zheng's true Qi, it would take some time for his body to recover from the fatigue.

Ying Zheng personally helped Nian Duan to lie down, put the child away, and stayed with Nian Duan until he fell into a deep sleep before leaving the hall.

Look up at the sky, good.

He hurried to deal with government affairs, after all, there were still some finishing touches to be done.

I went to see Nian Duan and the child in the evening before returning to Lan Chi. It was almost midnight when I got back to Lan Chi.

I didn't expect that Zhao Ji was still waiting.

Well, or rather, she hasn't gone back yet, because now Zhao Ji has fallen asleep on the dragon couch.

She slept in her clothes, probably because she had been waiting too late and fell asleep. The maid covered her with a thin blanket.

During this period, Ying Zheng was too busy and sometimes came back too late, but no matter how late it was, Zhao Ji would wait for him.

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, walked forward and sat beside her, pinching Zhao Ji's small nose to prevent her from breathing.

Zhao Ji woke up after just a few breaths, still sleepy and a little confused.

It took a long time for his brain to start working. He slapped Ying Zheng's hand away and gave him a displeased look.

She yawned, stretched herself, her hair full of pearls and jade fluttered, and her brocade quilt slipped off. Even through the luxurious bright yellow and red palace dress, her exquisite curves were still visible, and she could not conceal her stunning charm.

She scolded and complained: "You rebellious son, you only know how to tease me." Zhao Ji, who had just woken up, was lazy and weak, her face was as delicate as clouds and flowers, and as beautiful as a lotus.

Zhao Ji was about to get up, and Ying Zheng said with a smile: "You are wrong to blame me, mother. You still want to wake me up, but you are afraid of scaring me. I will help you get up now."

While holding Zhao Ji's forearm, he helped her sit up.

Then he leaned over and grabbed Zhao Ji's delicate breasts. Her heels were not even big enough to fit in Ying Zheng's big hands. Zhao Ji, who was too lazy to even walk, had a pair of tender and white toes, as white as frost and snow, with well-proportioned and beautiful toes, and slender toes that were like pearls and jade.

Zhao Ji, whose feet were grabbed by Ying Zheng's big hands, felt a little itchy. The back of her foot was stretched straight like a bow, and blue blood vessels as thin as hair were visible under her fair skin, and gradually turned bright red.

With his other hand, Ying Zheng picked up the two-inch bright red high heels with phoenix pattern and gently put them on Zhao Ji.

After both feet were put on, Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction, stood up and looked at Zhao Ji: "It's all right now."

Zhao Ji looked to the side, and her jade-like face seemed to be reflected in the rosy glow under the flickering candlelight.

"Hmph~ That's better. I'll forgive you. If you do it again, I won't let you off easily."

Ying Zheng smiled flatteringly and said, "Then I would like to thank my mother for her forgiveness."

"Come and eat, it's too late."

Zhao Ji followed Ying Zheng and sat down, frowning slightly: "Zheng'er, you have been too busy recently. You should pay attention to your health and not overwork yourself. If you can give some things to the ministers, give them to them. One person can't do everything. Anyway, they are there to help you do things. You should pay attention to your health and don't get too tired."

Ying Zheng nodded repeatedly: "I know, I will pay attention, don't worry."

Zhao Ji looked at Ying Zheng's perfunctory expression and stopped talking. She suddenly remembered what she wanted to question Ying Zheng today.

Zhao Ji slammed the ivory chopsticks down with a "pa" sound, and angrily grabbed the ear of Ying Zheng who was eating, but she was reluctant to use any force.

"By the way, you rebellious son, when did you get together with that Nian Duan? You even hid it from me, and I only found out about it today!"

Ying Zheng gently pulled Zhao Ji's hand away and rolled his eyes at her, "What do you mean by getting together? I own the world, so what's wrong with favoring a woman? Besides, Nian'er is both virtuous and talented, with outstanding talent and beauty. She has always been proud of herself. She is a perfect match for me, so why not?"

"Also, I didn't deliberately hide it from mother, it's just that mother didn't notice it."

Zhao Ji pouted softly.

"Then what's the huge age gap between you two? Nian Duan is only a few years younger than me. If this gets out, what will happen? Do you want to save your reputation?"

Ying Zheng smiled coldly: "Humph, who dares to say that?"

"I don't believe that a head rolling on the ground can talk."

"Besides, it's just a slight age difference. Nian'er has a noble character, is unmarried, and has no lover. She and I are in love, so it's only natural that I favor her. What's there to say? I'll kill anyone who dares to make a fuss."

Zhao Ji asked: "Then you don't mind her being too old?"

"Bah, you keep saying it, you really can't say it."

Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Ji speechlessly: "I and Nian'er already have a child, is this an attitude of disdain for her?"

Zhao Ji smiled awkwardly, feeling that her question was a bit stupid: "That's true."

Ying Zheng continued, "Besides, what's wrong with being a little older? Isn't Nian'er still as beautiful as a flower? What's more, being older is better. Big sister knows how to be warm and considerate, and treats me very warmly."

"I love it very much."

"I just like to call you Nian'er. What's wrong with that? I just like to call you like that."

Zhao Ji curled her lips and said, "Okay, okay, you are the king, who dares to control you? I see clearly that you are just greedy for my body, you are lustful."

Ying Zheng rolled his eyes at Zhao Ji and stuffed a mouthful of food into her mouth. "Sooner or later, I will rule the world. How can such a great country not have someone to inherit it? I am sick, so what? It happens that Nian'er is the medical saint of the time. Isn't it great to have her treat me?"

"Eat quickly, you'll be busy later."

Zhao Ji almost choked, swallowed the food, and quickly drank a mouthful of water, then asked curiously: "What does it have to do with me? What do I need to do?"

Ying Zheng smiled slightly: "Nian'er has a special status and shoulders a heavy responsibility. I am also busy with government affairs. When the child grows up, the child will definitely require the Queen Mother to worry more about him in the future."

Zhao Ji sneered: "Okay, I will take care of your child, that's fine."
