Quick Wear: The Development of a Pure Cannon Fodder

Thinking of her bulging treasury, Yu Ziyin's mood brightened and she held Shao Lian's hand tightly. "Although it's arduous, I will not let Your Highness down."

Shao Lian was actually quite worried that Yu Ziyin would get tired, so he said, "Let Xi Que and Rong Mama help you. You're good at everything, but you have to handle everything yourself. You also need to take a proper rest sometimes."

After spending these days together, Shao Lian had a deeper understanding of Yu Zinyin's learning ability and caution. She wanted to learn everything, and was as cautious as her father in everything she did. Her father was cautious in the court for fear of saying or doing the wrong thing, and she was the same in the backyard. She was very organized in what she said and did with people, but she would handle everything personally and didn't want to delegate it to others, not even the trustworthy Rong Mama and Xi Que.

Shao Lian wanted to let her relax, but Yu Zinyin would also use her relaxing time to learn other new things she came into contact with. Even Shao Lian couldn't say that he could compare with her love of learning.

Yu Ziyin touched her belly, which had not yet grown. She knew that she was sometimes a little stubborn, so she said slowly, "I will rest. It won't affect the baby in my belly."

Although she has lived a lifetime, all her experiences now are her firsts: the first time she is a normal person without any illness, the first time she is someone else's concubine, the first time she is a princess consort, and the first time she is a mother.

This feeling is very wonderful. After four or five months, when Yu Zinyin felt the fetal movement in her belly, this feeling became even more wonderful. She stroked the place where she had just been kicked by the baby in her belly. Her eyes were a little confused, but then a smile appeared on her face.

Soon, the emperor's grandson and the prince's eldest son was born on a quiet afternoon.

After returning from outside, Shao Lian went straight to the delivery room. Before he could even enter, he was stopped by the Queen, who had arrived earlier and was standing nearby. Seeing her son about to rush in upon arrival, she quickly stepped forward and said, "You can't go in now! Wait until everything is cleaned up before you go in!"

Shao Lian pursed his lips and had to stop and look at the queen, "Mother, are the mother and child safe inside?"

The reason why the queen is here is because they are not in the prince's mansion, but in the East Palace in the imperial palace. After Yu Zinyin entered and stayed there for a long time, the emperor and the queen were afraid that some short-sighted people would get the wrong idea, so they asked Shao Lian and Yu Zinyin to move to the East Palace. Then the queen was personally responsible for their food, clothing, and daily life. The midwife during delivery and the subsequent cooking would also be taken care of by the queen's people. The emperor's dragon guards were secretly guarding the surroundings. The entire East Palace was like an iron barrel. Except for the emperor, queen, and Shao Lian, anyone who entered had to be carefully checked.

"Everything is fine!" The Queen nodded and consoled him, "The midwives inside were all personally selected by me. How could anything go wrong? The child was already born before you arrived. It's just that it's a little inconvenient inside right now. You'll be able to go in soon."

After the Queen finished speaking, the maids who were packing up inside came out, and the leader said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, the room has been packed."

After hearing this, Shao Lian took several steps at a time and stepped inside. He saw Yu Ziyin, who was usually full of energy and spirit, now with a pale face. Although she had dressed properly, her forehead and hair were soaked with sweat. Rong Mama, who was sitting next to her, was holding a swaddled baby and bending over to show it to her. She lowered her voice, fearing to scare the child, "Your Majesty, look, how adorable the emperor's grandson is."

Yu Ziyin twitched her lips, forcing a smile. She glanced sideways and saw Shao Lian. Her previously dry eyes suddenly became moist again, "Your Highness..."

Shao Lian stepped forward with a distressed look on his face, and Rong Mama quickly stood aside holding the baby.

"Qingqing, does it hurt?" Shao Lian held her hand. Even though his palm had been wiped, it was still sweaty. He took a handkerchief and wiped the side of Yu Ziyin's face. His eyes were full of heartache. "I just left because of something. I didn't expect that as soon as I left, you would start. I should have been faster."

Shao Lian was visiting Xiu Mo today, and Yu Ziyin was due to give birth, so he planned to stay with her in the East Palace. Unexpectedly, Li Song and his men started making trouble again, so he had to go and deal with it. As a result, not long after he left, Yu Ziyin felt constant stomach cramps, and then she went into labor. When he came back, Yu Ziyin had already given birth.

This pushed Shao Lian's patience with Li Song and his gang to its limit. He wished they would die immediately and stop getting in the way. However, the most urgent matter now was his beloved.

Yu Ziyin was crying. She was extremely fragile now, and her voice was sobbing. She grabbed Shao Lian's hand and cried and scolded: "Yes, you should have been quick. Why didn't you support me outside? I, I was in so much pain... But you were not outside, why did you come back now? I, I just thought I was going to die... I thought I was going to die of pain... I thought I would never see you and the baby again!"

What Yu Zinyin didn't say was that she thought her mission was going to fail!

Shao Lian felt that Yu Ziyin was extremely pitiful at the moment. On the one hand, he was angry at those rubbish for preventing him from being with Qingqing, and on the other hand, he wondered why he hadn't ridden back sooner. Listening to Yu Ziyin's words, he felt almost dead with guilt, so he accepted the condemnation willingly. "My fault, my fault, it's all Shao Lang's fault. I shouldn't have come back so late. I'm not leaving now, not even a step."

"It's your fault!"

"Yes, my bad!"

The queen standing at the door: "..." No, it's my fault, I shouldn't be here.

The queen did not go forward to disturb the two young people, but waved to Rong Mama and asked her to take the child to the side hall. The group then retreated to the side hall and left it to the two of them.

The emperor soon came over, and was then dragged by the empress to a side hall to see the little grandson. Although he was not her first grandson, he was the first child of her beloved eldest son. Out of love for the child, the emperor was filled with joy. He personally took the child from the empress's hands. Listening to the little grandson's cries, the emperor was not annoyed at all, and said, "Good, good, good! His voice is like a loud bell! He is worthy of being my grandson!"

The Queen was also delighted. Standing nearby, she watched the Emperor coaxing the child with a smile on her face. She said, "Your Majesty, how about you name the child?"

When the emperor heard that the child's name had not yet been decided, he looked around in confusion, "Where's Shao Lian? This kid, why hasn't the child's name been decided yet?"

The queen covered her mouth and chuckled, "He is still with Yin'er now."

The emperor laughed upon hearing this. He was also happy to hear that his son and his wife were living in harmony. He just didn't expect Shao Lian to care so much about the Crown Princess that he didn't even choose a name for his own son. After thinking for a moment, the emperor said, "After all, this is the Crown Prince's first child. I can't take away his chance to name his eldest son. It won't be too late to give him a name later when he has another child."

The emperor was not making excuses when he said this, but he really felt that the name of the first child should be chosen by the father himself. Even Shao Lian's name was chosen by the emperor after careful consideration.
