It's good to exchange marriages. My sister eats coarse food while I wear gold and silver.

"Report!"

"Your Majesty, the Xirong army raided the border, resulting in heavy casualties."

"Report!"

"Your Majesty, the Southern Barbarians' army raided Longmen Pass and burned a large amount of the army's food and fodder. Longmen Pass is now in danger. The Southern Barbarians' army can break through Longmen Pass at any time and reach the capital directly!"

"Report!"

"Your Majesty, the armies of the Northern Qiang and Eastern Yi countries have occupied the canal docks and seized the goods from all over the country. If the other party refuses, they will rob them openly and burn, kill, and plunder in the city, committing all kinds of evil!"

When three express letters, sent over an express route of eight hundred miles, were delivered to the emperor.

He was taking a hot spring bath while hugging two concubines who had just entered the palace.

"presumptuous!"

The emperor tore the letter to pieces. "This bunch of rabble, I didn't kill them all because of the people of the three countries, but they are repaying kindness with hatred. Come... announce..."

"Your Majesty, who do you want to summon?" The eunuch asked when he saw that the emperor was silent and looked thoughtful.

"You, you go to the Dali Temple now and bring out... Nangong Ao Cang, and then go to the Jifeng Camp and let Lu Sui enter the palace immediately." The emperor didn't want to use these two people, but after thinking about it, he couldn't think of any other generals in the court who could be used except them.

"Yes, slave, go right away."

When the eunuch was leaving, he thought for a moment, called a younger eunuch, and whispered a few words in his ear.

The young eunuch nodded, turned around and ran towards Shoukang Palace.

Dali Temple.

During this period, except for the poor food and accommodation, the rest of the time, Canglang King Cang chatted with the jailers and lived an easy life. However, Canglang Queen was always frowning. She was very worried about Yuan Buwei and could only pray in her heart.

Princess Jinghe's belly was getting bigger and bigger. As she was about to give birth, her inner anxiety was growing.

"Cang Wolf King, Cang Wolf King."

Ye Shaoqing hadn't come in yet, but a voice had already come over: "Your Majesty, I want you to enter the palace immediately."

"Enter the palace?"

The Wolf King, who was originally playing finger-guessing with the jailer, paused and asked, "What's the matter?"

"The eunuchs around the emperor didn't say anything, but they looked very anxious."

"Then I won't go."

The Wolf King snorted and laughed: "I have been imprisoned here for several months. I have confessed everything I should confess. What else is there to say? He can kill me or chop me up as he pleases."

"King Canglang, it was the Western Rong army that raided the border..."

"What did you say?"

The Wolf King stood up and looked at the eunuch who was speaking: "Why would the Western Rong army suddenly attack the border?"

"I don't know this, so you'd better go to the palace to see the emperor as soon as possible." The eunuch bowed, "The casualties on the border are heavy..."

"Go to the palace now."

Before the eunuch finished speaking, the Wolf King walked out of the cell. Halfway through, he turned his head and looked at his wife who was looking at him: "Huier, wait for me to come back."

Since it was a matter of border security, Canglang Princess was no longer as reluctant to speak as before. She nodded and said softly, "Your Highness, please be careful."

"Ye Shaoqing."

As soon as the Wolf King left, Princess Jinghe felt something was wrong.

"Princess, what's wrong with you?" Ye Shaoqing walked quickly to the entrance of the cell. Seeing Princess Jinghe sweating profusely and looking pale, he became anxious. "What's wrong with you... I'll find a doctor for you right away..."

"Don't look for a doctor, look for a midwife."

"What?" Ye Shaoqing was stunned and didn't react.

"Find a midwife. I'm about to give birth. Go quickly." This sentence exhausted all of Princess Jinghe's strength. She fell to the ground and groaned in pain.

"Okay, I'll go now. Please hold on, hold on."

Princess Canglang, who was standing opposite, saw Princess Jinghe's painful expression and immediately walked out of the cell and ran towards her: "Princess Jinghe, you will be fine, take a deep breath..."

Princess Jinghe grabbed the hand of Princess Canglang and looked at her straightly: "I feel that the baby is about to come out, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to wait until the midwife arrives. Second sister-in-law, you have to help me..."

"You mean, you want me to help you deliver the baby?" The Wolf Princess took a breath and shook her head. "No, I have given birth to a child myself, but I have never delivered a baby for anyone else. Besides, the environment here is too dirty. At least find a clean place."

"That's too late."

Princess Jinghe's fingers tightly grasped the hand of Princess Canglang: "I can die, but the child in my belly cannot, second sister-in-law, just consider it as my request to you..."

She had never been so humble as she was at this moment.

Princess Canglang bit her lip and looked at Princess Jinghe who looked in pain. She gritted her teeth and turned to look at the bewildered jailers standing outside the cell. "Go get a basin of hot water, and prepare candles, a pair of clean scissors, a quilt, and two sets of clean clothes."

"Yes."

The jailers had never encountered such a situation before, but fortunately one or two of them had experienced their wives giving birth, so they quickly prepared everything.

After the Wolf Princess surrounded the cell door with a quilt, she quickly returned to Princess Jinghe and touched her belly to comfort her: "Jinghe, don't be afraid. I'll let you push harder later. Push harder."

"it is good."

The pain of the secret book made Princess Jinghe unable to think, and she could only nod randomly: "Second sister-in-law, if anything happens to me, you must...you must keep the child."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I will protect you and the child." Princess Canglang put a clean blanket under Princess Jinghe and took off her clothes. Seeing that her amniotic fluid had broken, her heart suddenly rose to her throat. "The labor pains will last for a while, Jinghe, take a deep breath, take a deep breath..."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

Princess Jinghe had never known that giving birth could be so painful. And when she thought that the child she had been longing for was born in a prison cell, her hatred for the emperor increased a little more. As long as she could get out of the Dali Temple, she would fight the emperor to the end.

"what!"

"Be still, take a deep breath, take a deep breath."

When the time of delivery finally came, Princess Canglang knelt in front of Princess Jinghe's legs, shouting with sweat all over her forehead.

The jailers outside the cell, upon hearing what was happening inside, knelt down and kowtowed: "Please pray that Princess Jinghe and the child are safe and sound."

"I, I'm running out of strength..."

Princess Jinghe's hair was already wet with sweat. She felt as if she was being torn apart, painful and cold.

"Jinghe, try harder and the baby's head will be visible soon."

The baby's head is coming out?

Hearing this, Princess Jinghe once again exerted all her strength. With a scream, the child was born, immediately making a loud cry.

"Princess Jinghe, it's great that you gave birth to a son."

Princess Canglang cut the umbilical cord, cleaned the baby, wrapped it in clothes, and brought it to Princess Jinghe: "Look, the baby is so good and healthy."
