Zhong Ruhuang looked at her skinny little daughter in her arms again with loving eyes.

"Fan Yu, go to the study and get the sandalwood box."

This child will be named Fuchun. I hope she will be blessed with good fortune, safety and health.

After a while, Fan Yu brought over a sandalwood box, inside of which was a warm jade pendant with the words "Fuchun" written on it.

Zhong Ruhuang placed the jade pendant into the swaddling clothes and asked the maid to take the child away.

At the same time, the servants in the mansion were rewarded with half a year's salary, and the servants in the main courtyard were rewarded with one year's salary.

When Zhang Yufeng and the others saw that Xiao Ziran had given birth, they all left and went back.

After everyone had left, Zhong Ruhuang looked at Doctor Jiang who had not left yet.

"Doctor Jiang, tell me, what's going on?"

“Didn’t you tell me that everything is fine with the prince’s wife? Is this what you mean?”

The child is born sickly?

That's good.

Zhong Ruhuang almost gritted her teeth when she said this.

Doctor Jiang fell to his knees with a thud.

"Your Highness, it was the Prince's husband who asked me to keep this from you. In addition, the Prince's husband has been drinking a lot of drugs to have a daughter over the years in order to have a daughter. His health has been bad for a long time. He is already at the end of his strength to have this child. He cannot have both. The Prince's husband...he chose a female heir."

"you……"

Zhong Ruhuang was almost angry to death by these words.

If there is no child, then there is no child. Why should he be so extreme?

At worst, he can just adopt one.

Why should I sacrifice my life for my children?

Zhong Ruhuang couldn't say this because the child had already been born.

"You kept it a secret when the Wang Fu asked you to? Have you forgotten who your master is?"

"The humble minister is guilty."

Doctor Jiang originally didn't want to hide it, but when Xiao Ziran knelt down in front of her, she dared not accept the gift and could only agree to keep it secret.

The incident had already happened. In addition, Zhong Ruhuang had always trusted Xiao Ziran, and the power of stewardship in the backyard had always been in his hands. It was unexpected that such a big thing could be concealed by him.

As expected of the Wang Fu she personally trained, he has quite good methods.

"Tell me, how many days do you have left, Master Wang?"

Doctor Jiang knelt on the ground, his forehead covered with cold sweat.

"Your Highness, the prince's wife has ten days left."

In order to save the baby in Xiao Ziran's belly and ensure the smooth birth of the child, Imperial Doctor Jiang naturally put in a lot of effort, and the medicinal herbs he used were of good quality.

Zhong Ruhuang snorted, his face grim.

"Fan Yu, drag Imperial Doctor Jiang away, give him ten strokes of the cane, and fine him one year's salary."

If Doctor Jiang wasn’t old, it would have been more than just ten strokes of the cane.

Doctor Jiang was dragged away, and the sound of beating was soon heard in the yard.

Zhong Ruhuang was not in a very good mood right now, and was even very angry at Xiao Ziran's self-assertion.

Therefore, she quickly left the main courtyard and did not go there for several days.

Even though she didn't go, it doesn't mean she knows nothing.

The newborn girl learned how to take medicine before she even learned how to drink milk.

That child is really weak.

Because the child was weak, we didn’t even dare to hold a third-day bath, for fear of ruining his good fortune.

Zhong Ruhuang has been living in the study in the front yard for several days and has not even gone to the back yard.

She spent several days in the study copying prayer scriptures, and she copied a very thick stack.

"Fan Yu, offer these scriptures to Baonu Temple."

Fan Yu took the scriptures and offered them as sacrifice.

Zhong Ruhuang put down the brush and let out a long sigh.

When she didn't have a daughter, she wanted one. But after she had one, she became even more worried.

"Is Fuchun's illness getting better?"

Upon hearing this, Fan Min said, "Your Highness, it's better than yesterday."

"Ah, let someone serve carefully, where is Xiao?"

After Xiao Ziran gave birth to the child, she has been in a coma and has not woken up yet.

Zhong Ruhuang couldn't even curse anyone.

Xiao Ziran was afraid that his child would be branded as a father-killer, so he persisted even when he was unconscious.

"Your Highness, the prince has not woken up yet."

When Fan Min said this, he lowered his head.

Who told her to be the housekeeper, yet she made such a big mistake.

Not only was Doctor Jiang beaten with a stick, but even Fan Min was beaten with a stick. His buttocks were swollen. He was afraid to rest and had to limp while serving the emperor every day.

Zhong Ruhuang snorted when she heard this.

"He's fine. He doesn't have to worry about anything."

Don’t you know that a child without a father is like a weed?

No matter how good others are, they are not as good as your biological father.

Zhong Ruhuang had experienced the pain of not having a father to protect her, and didn't want her children to experience the same.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Ziran was so bold as to make the decision for her.

And Doctor Jiang, you have been living a comfortable life for too long, have you forgotten the days of fear and trepidation in the past?

"I remember that Doctor Jiang has a little grandson?"

Fan Min: "Your Highness, yes, I am almost reaching the age of marriage."

"Are you engaged?"

"No."

"This king is still in need of a concubine."

When Fan Min heard this, he knew what to do and limped out to do his work.

Doctor Jiang was recuperating at home when she saw Fan Min coming to her house.

"Master Xiao Fan, what are you doing?"

Fan Min smiled wryly, "I congratulate Lord Jiang."

"congratulate?"

"What am I happy about?"

"Master Jiang, I heard that you have a little grandson."

There is no need to make things too clear.

When Doctor Jiang heard this, he understood.

She was stunned for a moment: "It is his blessing that Zhixin can serve His Highness."

She knew that this time, she had concealed the prince's affairs for the king's wife, which made the prince very angry.

The reason why she married her grandson Jiang Zhixin was to warn her not to act on her own, otherwise her grandson would be the one to lose his life next time.

"Master Jiang is right."

That night, Jiang Zhixin entered the backyard of Prince Wu's mansion and lived in Luohua Pavilion.

Unfortunately, Zhong Ruhuang was very angry and didn't want to see him at all, so she naturally wouldn't come to Luohuaxuan to spend the night.

……

Xiao Ziran was in a coma for ten days and finally woke up, looking very energetic.

In fact, everyone knows that this is his last burst of vitality.

He was very aware of his physical condition, so after seeing the female heir he had risked his life to give birth to, he asked his secretary to invite Zhong Ruhuang over.

He has to arrange his funeral.

Wife and husband for eight years.

He also had some understanding of Zhong Ruhuang's temper.

She doesn't love him.

But if you respect him, you will also pamper him, and there is nothing more.

Now that he is dying, Your Highness will see him for the last time.

And it is.

When he heard that Xiao Ziran had woken up, he asked the secretary to come and invite her.

No matter how angry Zhong Ruhuang was, she still went.

The bedroom had been tidied long ago, and Xiao Ziran's favorite pear blossom scent was lit.

"Your Highness, you are here."

A gentle smile appeared on Xiao Ziran's snow-pale face.

Zhong Ruhuang sat down beside the bed, silent.

She didn't know what to say.

"Your Highness, I know you are angry, but I have no regrets."

The best days of his life were when he married Her Highness and became her husband.

Although His Highness did not love him, he had never lost face for the man in the backyard.

On the contrary, even if he did something wrong, His Highness would not criticize him in front of others, but teach him behind his back.

For such a good princess, he would naturally be willing to give birth to a daughter for her, even if it cost him his life.

Zhong Ruhuang moved her mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but in the end she couldn't utter it.
