After giving up being the wife of a powerful official, Ling Yunlu became a concubine

"Don't be afraid, madam. The servant and the prince are here."

After saying that, Linglong skillfully touched Shen Yunjin's belly and then felt her pulse.

"My lady, the baby is in a good position. You just need to follow my instructions."

When Shen Yunjin saw Linglong coming, the tension in his heart finally relaxed.

She had already given birth to a child, so the baby was born smoothly and quickly.

Ever since Linglong came in, the Crown Princess walked aside.

After this young maid came in and spoke a few words to Shen Yunjin, Shen Yunjin obviously relaxed a lot.

She was extremely surprised to see Linglong's skillful diagnosis of pulses and assistance in childbirth.

Such a young maid is no less experienced than the experienced midwife.

Concubine Shen is really lucky to have such a capable maid by her side.

While she was thinking, the baby was born.

"Congratulations, madam. It's a little boy."

Linglong skillfully cut the baby's umbilical cord, wrapped the baby up, and handed it to Shen Yunjin.

Shen Yunjin pulled his son's little hand.

It was exactly the same child as the one I saw in my dream before.

When the Crown Princess saw that this child was not crying like other children, she came over.

"Concubine Shen, can I give you a hug?"

Linglong glanced at Shen Yunjin, and Shen Yunjin smiled.

"Princess, of course, thank you for what you did just now."

The Crown Princess carefully took the child from Linglong's hands.

"This little one actually looks a lot like Concubine Shen. He was born very quickly, and it seems like he loves his mother very much."

Linglong stood aside nervously, looking at the Crown Princess.

The Crown Princess sensed her hostility. She held the child for a while and then placed him next to Shen Yunjin's pillow.

"Concubine Shen, you should have a good rest. I have asked someone to prepare fermented glutinous rice, brown sugar and eggs. You should eat more later. The baby will have milk when he wakes up."

Shen Yunjin is being held hostage now, so it is definitely impossible for her to hire a wet nurse for the child.

"Thank you, Princess, for your trouble!"

A look of desolation flashed across the Crown Princess's face.

"I also want to accumulate blessings for my child."

She looked at Shen Yunjin with a serious expression.

"Concubine Shen, you and I are both mothers. I want to ask you for a favor."

Shen Yunjin roughly guessed what the Crown Princess wanted, and she thought about it for a moment.

"You say!"

The Crown Princess looked into Shen Yunjin's eyes.

"If, if one day, this palace and the prince meet with an unexpected event, please ask Concubine Shen to take in my Hao'er."

Shen Yunjin looked at the Crown Princess, "I will do my best, but you also know that I am only a concubine."

The Crown Princess smiled, "I know that the King of Qi loves his concubine very much."

"I am here, and I would like to thank Concubine Shen for her generosity. I will leave first, and the prince is still waiting for my reply."

After the Crown Princess finished speaking, she walked out.

Linglong asked Shen Yunjin while cleaning up the filth.

"My lady, what did the Crown Princess mean by what she just said?"

Shen Yunjin looked at his son who was sleeping soundly on the side, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

"The Crown Princess is preparing for a rainy day. She is entrusting her son to someone else."

Shen Yunjin explained in a low voice.

On the way here, Linglong also heard from the guards about the prince's situation.

It seems that the storybook is not made up.

"Linglong, you said the prince is here too?"

Shen Yunjin suddenly remembered what Linglong said when she came in.

"Yes, the prince asked the prince to guard the door and only let me in."

"Then do you know how to pass the message on?"

"The prince gave me this." Linglong shook the handkerchief in her hand.

One red and one white.

"How can this be conveyed?" Shen Yunjin was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"The prince said that if it's a girl, then we should hang red, if not, then we should hang white."

"He also said that if the birth went smoothly, he would hang one, and if not, he would hang another one underneath this one, and he understood."

Shen Yunjin couldn't help but laugh, "Then go quickly!"

Xiao Minshen was pacing anxiously outside the door when he saw a white handkerchief hanging from the roof.

What a brat!

Xiao Minshen was a little disappointed that his soft and sweet daughter flew away.

But having a son is also good. When a daughter is born, she will have an extra brother to protect her.

While Shen Yunjin was still worried that Xiao Minshen would be disappointed, Xiao Minshen had already accepted the reality.

Xiao Minshen knocked on the door of the villa again.

After hearing the servant's report, the prince came to the door again.

"Has the child been born?"

The prince curled his lips and said, "It's a son."

"Then fifth brother will take the person away right away and won't trouble the prince." Shen Yunjin looked directly at the prince.

But the prince laughed.

"Has the Fifth Brother's people gone to meet the Second Brother's people?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Minshen looked at the prince warily.

"Don't be nervous, Fifth Brother. After all, I am alone now. If I don't have any backup plan, how can I be sure to deal with Second Brother?"

"Fifth brother has no intention of intervening in your dispute. Fifth brother only wants to take the concubine and the child away. Please, Prince, for the sake of our friendship since childhood, let fifth brother take them away."

The prince shook his head, "Not yet. My fifth brother wants to help me with something."

Xiao Minshen stared at the prince for a long time without saying anything.

"It's not a big deal. You can see that my second brother is chasing me very closely."

"And I don't want to have a direct conflict with my second brother's people."

"I have no intention of competing with my second brother for the throne. I just want to return to my fiefdom."

"If you help me deal with the pursuers, I will naturally hand Concubine Shen and the child to you in good condition."

After saying this, the prince looked at Xiao Minshen, as if he was certain that he would agree.

"The concubine is just a woman, and she just gave birth. It would be a burden for you to follow her."

"Otherwise, Fifth Brother will leave the child with the Crown Prince as a hostage, and you will release my concubine first."

The prince walked up to Xiao Minshen.

"Fifth brother is really kind and gentle to women, but unfortunately, I want both of them."

"Fifth brother, please think about this carefully. You must make a decision before Second brother's people come back!"

After saying this, the prince smiled and walked into the palace.

Xiao Minshen clenched his fists and wanted to rush forward and take the prince hostage.

However, he could not act rashly as Shen Yunjin and the child were still in their hands.

"Prince, what should we do?" Mo Yi came to Xiao Minshen's side.

Xiao Minshen narrowed his eyes.

Dare to plot against him. If that's the case, he won't let the prince have an easy time!

"Let the guards pretend to be the prince's men and destroy the second prince's men."

"Leave one person alive and tell him that the prince wants his fiefdom back."

"Then, have our men change into the clothes of the Second Prince and ambush at the dock."

If the prince wanted to go to his fiefdom, the safest and fastest way was to take a boat and go downstream.
