In less than a month, the news of the Mohist army occupying the Chu capital had spread throughout the Great River's North and South Pass. In an instant, all the nobles who had been scheming against each other had calmed down. In a short span of less than ten years, Prince Ding's residence had actually changed from being suppressed by Mo Jingqi to a behemoth that could compete with anyone under their eyes. Many people regretted that they didn't take advantage of the Prince Ding Mansion's weakest moment to stab them a few times. Now, they had an unpredictable and powerful enemy.
However, looking at the Mohist army soldiers guarding the city like wolves and tigers, the people who were ready to make a move couldn't help but retract their steps. It was true that the desire to destroy the Mohist army was strong, but everyone knew that the hunter would shoot the bird that sticks out. If they couldn't help but make a move and fight to the death with the Prince Ding Mansion, it would only benefit others.
While the people in power of each country had their own thoughts and plans, the Prince Ding Mansion in Glass City was in chaos.
The usually quiet and warm main courtyard was in a clamor. There were a few people sitting or standing in the parlor, all of them looking restless. There were also many people standing in the courtyard outside the parlor, waiting anxiously. If one had been in the Prince Ding Mansion for a long time, they would definitely remember that this scene had played out once seven years ago. That's right, today was the day that the Prince Ding Mansion's new member was going to be born.
In the parlor, Mo Xiuyao sat on the main seat with a calm expression. However, if one looked carefully, they would find that his body was already stiff. If it wasn't for him trying his best to control himself, he might have already rushed into the room. Although he had already experienced it a few years ago when he gave birth to Mo Xiaobao, it was because he had experienced it that he felt even more terrified. Furthermore, when she gave birth to Mo Xiaobao, there was only one. This time, there were two. Everyone in the parlor had the same goal of distancing themselves from Mo Xiuyao. Even the mischievous Mo Xiuyao, who usually made his father uncomfortable, tactfully distanced himself from Mo Xiuyao and lay in Mr. Qingyun's arms.
Ye Li wasn't someone who liked to scream when she was in pain, so when she was giving birth, it didn't sound as scary as the average pregnant woman. Qin Zheng, who was sitting by the side, could not help but recall the time when she gave birth to Xu Zhirui. It was said that the entire Xu Manor could hear the screams. Xu Qingze, who had always been cold and stern, was so scared that he fainted the moment he heard that the child was born. Compared to Ye Li's current situation, she suddenly felt that she had lost too much face.
Mo Xiaobao stared at the maidservants carrying water in and out from time to time. He leaned into Master Qingyun's arms worriedly and his dark eyes were filled with fear. Master Qingyun patted his little great-grandson tenderly and said softly, "Chen 'er, don't be afraid. Your mother is fine. Chen 'er, do you want to go out and play with Zhirui? When you come back, brother and sister will come out. "Mo Xiaobao shook his head and said," No, Chen' er wants to wait for brother and sister to be born. Great-grandfather, was it very painful when mother gave birth to Chen 'er? "Master Qingyun smiled and said," Yes, every mother will be very painful when giving birth to a child. So Chen 'er must be filial to mother in the future. Do you understand? "
Mo Xiaobao nodded heavily and said, "Chen 'er knows. Chen' er will be filial to mother. Chen 'er likes mother the most. "
"Good boy."
There were also many people standing in the courtyard outside the door. Not only the people of the Prince Ding Mansion, but also Hua Tianxiang, Han Mingxi, Ye Wenhua and others. The parlor was too small to have a place to sit. They had to wait anxiously in the courtyard closest to it.
In the bedroom, Ye Li was lying on the bed and enduring the waves of pain. Her face was a little pale. Second Madame Xu anxiously watched the midwife busying herself. She could only hold Ye Li's hand and said, "Li 'er, don't be afraid. If it hurts, just cry out. " Ye Li squeezed out a smile at Second Madame Xu. This birth was indeed more painful than the last time when she gave birth to Mo Xiaobao. There was a sharp pain, and Ye Li finally couldn't help but cry out in pain.
Second Madame Xu wiped the sweat on her forehead and asked, "What's the matter? How long will it take to give birth? "
The midwife was a little embarrassed and said, "I'm afraid it will take a while. The position of the little heir's fetus is a little wrong. We have to adjust the position of the fetus." Second Madame Xu's face darkened. She had also given birth to two children, so she naturally knew the trouble of having a wrong fetus. "Then hurry up. You know the identity of the princess consort. Don't let anything happen to her! "
The midwife nodded and said, "Madame, don't worry. The princess consort's condition isn't serious. There won't be any problems. It's just that the princess consort will have to suffer a little. "Ye Li also heard their conversation. She nodded slightly and said," It's okay. You can do it. " The midwife then went forward and adjusted the position of the fetus. Second Madame Xu held Ye Li's hand and comforted her in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, Li 'er … Relax. When Aunt gave birth to your third brother, the position of the fetus was also wrong. Don't worry. "
Ye Li nodded and endured the waves of pain.
From day to night, other than Ye Li's painful cries, there was no sound of the child crying. Mo Xiuyao, who had been sitting on the main seat, finally couldn't take it anymore. He stood up and was about to walk in when Master Qingyun hurriedly called out, "Stop!" Mo Xiuyao paused and continued to walk forward. Master Qingyun said in a low voice, "If it's for Li 'er, don't go in for a long time! If you go in, will the midwives still dare to move? " These words weren't false. Mo Xiuyao's pressure right now, not to mention the midwives, even the people sitting in the parlor couldn't take it. Qin Zheng had already held Mo Xiaobao's hand and waited outside the door. He was afraid that if Mo Xiuyao went in, the midwives would panic even more. It wasn't rare to make a mistake in the chaos.
Mo Xiuyao's cold air kept blowing out. He turned back to look at Master Qingyun. After a while, he finally turned back and sat down in his original position. But that sharp gaze didn't make people doubt that he wanted to blow open the closed door with one palm.
Everyone waited until dawn before the first sound of a baby crying came from the room.
The originally solemn and worried crowd seemed to wake up in an instant and stood up one after another. Mo Xiaobao also ran in from outside, "Meimei, I heard meimei's voice!" Then he ran towards the door. But the door was still closed. Mo Xiaobao didn't leave and just waited at the door. After a while, another sobbing sound was heard. Everyone finally heaved a sigh of relief. Not long later, Madam Xu and a midwife each carried a child out. She smiled and said, "A son and a daughter, mother and child are safe."
She brought the children in front of Master Qingyun. The two wrinkled little red monkeys made Master Qingyun very happy. "Good, good children. How is Li 'er? "Second Madam Xu smiled and said," After being tired for a day and night, she fell asleep. Father, look, this is big sister and this is little brother. "Master Qingyun nodded happily and said," Women are good, very good, very good … … "
