I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle

"Your Majesty, His Majesty orders you to come in."

Concubine Xian was delighted and immediately stood up with Su Xin's help.

Because she had been kneeling for too long, Concubine Xian could hardly stand and almost had to hang on Su Xin's body to move forward, and thus she arrived in front of Emperor Zhaowu's bed.

Emperor Zhaowu slowly opened his eyes and glanced at Consort Xian: "You are already this old, and you are still kneeling for so long. Do you not want your body anymore?"

Concubine Xian tried to hold back her tears and said in a sobbing voice, "Your Majesty is ill. I can't even see you. What do I need this body for?"

This was a complaint against the Queen for controlling Emperor Zhaowu and not letting her see him.

Hearing this, the Queen looked at Concubine Xian and said nothing.

Emperor Zhaowu coughed heavily several times, then took the handkerchief handed over by Yang Defu and wiped his mouth, then said calmly: "The imperial physician told me to rest, so I will rest. You can go back first."

"No, I won't go back." As she spoke, Concubine Xian held Emperor Zhaowu's hand, her eyes full of affection as she gazed at his haggard face. "Your Majesty is still ill, how can I go back with peace of mind? I will stay here to take care of you. If you have any instructions, just let me do it."

After saying that, Concubine Xian added, "The Empress has been guarding here for the past two days, so she must be tired. Why don't you let me do my duty as well?"

Seeing Concubine Xian's sincere face, Emperor Zhaowu finally did not say no, and nodded in agreement: "Okay. In that case, you stay."

Concubine Xian was overjoyed. She pushed aside Gao Mingche who was standing in front of the bed and said softly, "Your Majesty, are you thirsty? How about I pour you a glass of water?"

"can."

When Concubine Xian was diligently feeding Emperor Zhaowu water, Princess Heshuo Chang walked in.

She walked very quickly and reached Emperor Zhaowu's bed in just a few steps.

She sat down and while feeling the Emperor Zhaowu's pulse, she complained, "Brother, you are ill, why did you hide it from me?"

Emperor Zhaowu forced a smile and said, "It's just a cold. It's not a big deal."

"That being said, you are already over 40 years old after all. And you suddenly fell ill, so you can't be careless." Princess Heshuo took her hand away from Emperor Zhaowu's wrist. "Although it's not serious, you can't be careless. Brother, you must rest well this time. You have so many sons, can't you let the affairs of the court be handled by them first? Why do you have to work so hard?"

"They are still young and lack experience after all."

"Then you have to give them a chance to gain experience. I think this is the chance."

Princess Heshuo and Emperor Zhaowu were talking to each other, and Concubine Xian had not been able to get a word in. When she heard what Princess Heshuo said, she quickly agreed, "Yes, Your Majesty. Although Yuan'er is still facing the wall and thinking about his mistakes, there are other princes who can share your worries."

When Emperor Zhaowu heard Concubine Xian mention the Sixth Prince, a trace of anger appeared on his face: "Does he know he is wrong?"

"Yuan'er has realized his mistake. He knows that you are ill, and he kneels in the palace and prays every day. I think he really knows he is wrong this time."

"As a prince, he took credit for something he had accomplished. He is a really capable prince!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. You must not get angry because of Yuan'er again." Concubine Xian advised in a low voice, gently stroking his heart.

Emperor Zhaowu took away her hand, looked at Gao Mingche who was standing beside him, and instructed: "Che'er, you have done a good job recently. In the next few days, you will handle government affairs on my behalf. If you encounter something that you cannot decide, discuss it with the Prime Minister and others. If necessary, you can ask Prince Xie for advice."

Gao Mingche was startled for a moment, then responded, "Yes, Father."

"Back off, there's no need to stay here."

In the end, only Concubine Xian was left to serve Emperor Zhaowu.

After leaving the Qinzheng Hall, the Queen and Princess Heshuo looked at each other and gave each other a knowing look.

The news that Gao Mingche was handling government affairs on their behalf soon reached Cui Shuyan and Xie Xingyuan.

However, this incident did not cause much waves in the hearts of the two.

Because Cui Shuyan's stomach started to hurt.

By dusk the pains were coming more and more frequently.

Xie Xingyuan stayed by Cui Shuyan's side all the time, wiping her sweat and comforting her.

Even though the midwife said that the delivery room was unlucky and asked him to leave, he remained unmoved and insisted on staying here to accompany Cui Shuyan.

Cui Shuyan was already in so much pain that she was losing consciousness. She grabbed Xie Xingyuan's hand and couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

At this moment, a cold voice suddenly came from outside: "Yanyan, I'm here."

It’s Luo Jinyu.

he came.

At this point, it no longer mattered to him whether or not to put on a show.

This time, he had to come.

He's going to stay here.

He watched over his sister as she gave birth to a baby safely.

Hearing her brother's voice, Cui Shuyan couldn't help but smile. With Xie Xingyuan holding her hand beside her, Cui Shuyan suddenly felt great strength.

Not long after, a clear cry echoed throughout the delivery room.

"Congratulations, Prince and Princess, it's a little girl!"

Cui Shuyan was already exhausted, but she still smiled at Xie Xingyuan: "A Yuan, you got what you wished for."

"Yeah!" Xie Xingyuan responded, feeling very sad.

In order for him to achieve his wish, his wife suffered.

Outside the delivery room, Luo Jinyu finally breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the baby crying.

Princess Heshuo had also arrived. The two of them held each other's hands tightly and looked at the door of the delivery room eagerly.

Finally, the door of the delivery room opened from the inside, and the midwife came out holding the baby in the cradle: "My Lord, the princess has ordered that you be the one to name the little princess."

"Okay." Looking at the tiny baby in the cradle, Luo Jinyu was very nervous. She rubbed her hands, not knowing how to hold the baby.

In the end, it was Princess Heshuo who brought the child over and showed it to Luo Jinyu.

Luo Jinyu took a closer look and frowned: "Why does he look like him?"

Princess Heshuo couldn't help laughing: "What's so strange about this? A daughter's appearance is mostly like her father's."

"Yanyan worked so hard to give birth to a child, but she looks like him. It's really unfair."

Princess Heshuo gave him a glare and said, "If I have a child in the future, won't I have to work hard to give birth to it, and then it will look like you?"

For a moment, Luo Jinyu was speechless, yet felt very bitter.

This is the truth, but when it comes to Cui Shuyan, he can't accept it.

His words really showed that he had suffered.

Seeing Luo Jinyu's low mood, Princess Heshuo whispered, "Don't be like this. Otherwise, Shuyan will feel bad when she sees you like this."

Luo Jinyu nodded, turned around, and saw Xie Xingyuan walking out.

Seeing him, Luo Jinyu blurted out without thinking: "Xie Xingyuan, why don't you castrate yourself..."
