Chapter 36: Heirs (Please collect and read)
"Empress! She's given birth! Concubine Shu has given birth!"
Outside Cining Palace, an elderly palace maid walked quickly, shouting loudly as she walked.
In the main hall, the Queen Mother and the Empress sat opposite each other, and they could not hide their nervousness even after drinking tea continuously.
At this time, Queen Lu Lin'er was about six or seven months pregnant, and her abdomen was slightly bulging and as round as a peach.
Hearing the shouts of the personal maid, the Queen Mother looked over subconsciously.
As for Lu Lin'er, she even stood up nervously.
"How?"
The palace maid walked in quickly and said in a suppressed voice: "Back to the Queen Mother, Queen Mother, Concubine Shu has given birth to a little princess!"
"Huh..."
After hearing that she was a princess, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
A princess is fine, but I'm afraid it's a prince.
Even if Concubine Shu's mother clan has declined, as long as he is a prince, he has the capital to compete for the throne.
Dayu was founded for more than 300 years, and it strictly enforced the system of inheritance by the eldest son.
But how many of those who truly became emperors were their eldest sons?
Seeing this, the Queen Mother and the Queen had to be nervous.
"It's okay, aunt, Concubine Shu gave birth to a daughter."
Lu Lin'er patted her increasingly busty chest and said, "Yang Ni will be executed in two months. By then, she will not have the support of her mother clan, so she will not be any threat to us."
The Queen Mother did not agree, but asked: "Has Your Majesty named it?"
"Back to the Queen Mother, get up."
"What's your name?"
The names given to the heirs of the Tian family have their own profound meanings, and often represent the emperor's expectations for this son.
Especially the prince is more important.
You even have to invite several old masters and people from the clan to discuss with each other before you can determine the name and title.
As for the daughter, it is up to the emperor to decide.
"Named Zheng Yuyao and given as 'Princess Yaochi'."
"Yuyao?"
After all, Lu Lin'er came from a scholarly family. Although she was a bit big-hearted and brainless, she quickly reacted.
"Aunt, these two words... seem to have the same meaning. They are both beautiful jade?"
"And Princess Yaochi... Your Majesty is determined to ask for immortality?"
The Queen Mother breathed a long sigh of relief, shook her head and said: "The Ai family doesn't know that your Majesty's temperament has changed drastically since he assassinated Yu Yang Tong twice for his rebellion. He is very different from usual."
"It's getting harder and harder for Ai Jia to guess what he's thinking."
"But the name of the eldest princess... Meiyu, is it because I hope that Concubine Shu can be alone and not have too close contact with the Yang Xuansu family who are about to be executed by the Nine Clan?"
"Aunt..."
"Okay." The Queen Mother shook her head and said: "Since Concubine Shu has given birth to the princess, you should rest assured and go back to raise the baby in peace..."
"The Queen Mother, the Queen Mother!"
At this time, another female official ran over quickly and said in a very fast tone: "The Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, and the concubine of Chuxiu Palace are also about to give birth!"
"What?"
The queen stood up in surprise, while the queen mother calmly said: "What's the hurry?"
"Shu Fei and Bi Bi have similar birth dates, so what's so surprising about giving birth at the same time today?"
"Go and find out quickly."
"No!"
After the maid left, the queen asked again: "Aunt, if Bibi gives birth to a prince..."
"You are the queen, the queen of the world!"
The Queen Mother taught: "You must have the demeanor to remain calm even if Mount Tai collapses in front of you. A mere concubine who is promoted from a palace maid will already have great luck."
"Without the support of the mother clan, even if he gives birth to a prince, the threat to you will be very small, but you must be careful."
"Just wait."
"Yes, aunt..."
Half an hour later, Chu Xiu Palace.
The sweaty grandma came out happily holding a little baby, and respectfully raised her hand and handed the baby to Zheng Yi.
"Your Majesty, Empress Bibi has given birth to a little princess~!"
"Well, not bad, let's take a look!"
Zheng Yi directly took over his second daughter this time and inspected it carefully.
The sons conceived by several concubines in the harem were all born with pure Yin energy.
Apart from making pregnant women give birth to women, what other effects does this pure yin energy have?
Until now, he doesn't know.
As expected, the daughter born to Bi Bi also had a faint aura of pure yin, which was very familiar to her.
Under his eyes, it slowly dissipated like blue smoke. Revealing her cute little face.
"This pure Yin energy has dissipated again? What happened..."
Zheng Yi's mind sank into his mind, and the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror was still floating quietly in the air.
With a thought in his mind, writings appeared on the mirror.
【Lord: Zheng Yi】
[Talent: Yin and Yang]
【Lifespan: 24/133】
[Kung Fu: "White Lotus Reincarnation Magic Technique" Level 1 (100/100)]
[The third level of "Hundred Battles Bloody Sword" (10000/10000)]
[Comprehensive strength: First Grade]
His life span was originally only 42 years old.
Later, through the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror, 16 points were added from Bihe, 19 points from Shu Fei, 19 points from Duan Fei, and 19 points from the Queen.
There is also Concubine De, who slept with the Queen within a few days of each other, and also gained 18 life points.
In other words, his current life span is a full 132 points!
As long as there is no illness or disaster, no one is assassinating him, and he does not commit suicide, he can live to be 133 years old.
But this is still too little for Zheng Yi!
"The pure yin energy has dissipated, but the yin and yang treasure mirror has no response?"
Zheng Yi murmured, constantly guessing the role of pure Yin Qi.
Could it be that... I want to try pure Yang Qi?
In other words, two plus one?
Zheng Yi still shook his head and suppressed the random thoughts in his mind.
"Hmm...something's wrong?"
His heart suddenly moved, and he concentrated on the back of the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror.
He remembered it clearly.
When I first obtained the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror, its overall color was bronze.
But at this time, a hint of brass appeared on the back and bottom of the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror.
No...it's two!
Two faint, but definitely present, brassy tones.
"Is this... the result of the birth of pure Yin energy?"
Zheng Yi quickly guessed: "Could it be said that the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror will undergo some new changes because I give birth to a child?"
"Charging? Percent progress?"
"Using pure yin energy to give birth to a daughter has this change, but what about using pure yang energy to give birth to a son?"
Zheng Yi's mind was racing and he thought about a lot in an instant.
Sure enough, following his guess, a reflection of himself appeared on the mirror again.
Special data is generated based on his opinion.
[Innate Spiritual Energy Progress (Level 1): 2/10]
"Progress of innate spiritual energy? Or the first level? What the hell?"
"In other words, I have to give birth to 10 daughters to unlock the progress of this so-called innate aura?"
Zheng Yi quickly understood and began to think in his mind.
"Concubine Shu Yang Huan, Concubine Bi Bihe, Concubine Duan Xu Qingluan, Queen Lu Lin'er, and Concubine De Li Changle are all pregnant. The five daughters are the five pure yin energies."
"There are still five steps left..."
"There is also Concubine Cui, but she is not in good health and has been taking leave. We need to send the imperial doctor to check her carefully."
There were many things on his mind, but he suppressed these random thoughts and walked slowly into Chuxiu Palace.
In the room, a weak Bihe was lying on the bed.
After hearing the noise, he quickly struggled to sit up: "Your Majesty~"
"He'er, you just gave birth, don't move around."
Bi He whispered: "Your Majesty, I am incompetent and did not give birth to a dragon child for Your Majesty."
Zheng Yi shook his head, why does every woman want to give birth to a son?
"He'er, don't think too much. I will treat everyone equally regardless of gender."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your comfort." Bihe said, "Please give me your name, Your Majesty."
"Your name is Bi, which is also the name of a beautiful gemstone."
Zheng Yi thought for a while and then said: "Then let's name the child 'Xia'."
"The clouds are the red clouds. The jasper blue sky and the red clouds complement each other perfectly."
"I gave her the name Zheng Yuxia and the title 'Princess Jinxia'!"
