Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

Liangshan, the chieftain's courtyard.

Hua Yun leaned against the bed, her face radiant with maternal love. She looked at the side of her bed where there was a swaddled baby boy sleeping soundly inside. He looked chubby and very cute.

The baby boy's overall appearance resembles Hua Yun more, and one can vaguely tell that he will grow up to be a handsome man.

But his eyebrows and eyes, and the expression when he suddenly frowns while asleep, are more like Ren Yuan's.

Yes, this little baby is Ren Yuan's son. He has been born for seven days and is changing every day, becoming more and more adorable.

"Sister, have some medicinal food. It was prescribed by the imperial physician and I brewed it myself."

The door was opened and then quickly closed to prevent any wind from entering. The person who came in was Li Shishi, who brought Hua Yun a nourishing medicinal meal with her maids.

"And this old chicken soup, with the skin removed and less oil, is also very nourishing."

"Thank you for your hard work, sister."

Hua Yunchong and Li Shishi smiled and nodded. Ren Yuan was not here, and there were no elders at home. Recently, Li Shishi, Lin Chong's wife, Xu Ning's wife, the mother of the three Ruan brothers, and Mi Sheng's mother were the main caregivers for her and her child.

Even a martial arts master like Zhou Tong could only appear in this room for a short while when he was dispelling the child's innate Qi, and then he was ruthlessly driven out to continue guarding the tower in the courtyard.

“What’s so hard about it? My sister has given birth to a prince for my husband, which is a great achievement. With him here, the kingdom of Yi is secure.”

Li Shishi said that compared to Hua Yun's hard work in giving birth to this child, what was it for her to do some chores like serving tea and water? After saying that, she even personally prepared to feed Hua Yun.

“Sister, you are now a princess, and I am healthy enough to take care of myself.”

Although the chubby baby staying in her body for almost two more months brought a lot of burden to Hua Yun, she was, after all, a woman from a military family, and her body was stronger than that of ordinary people. Hua Yun had actually recovered quite a bit, but she couldn't be exposed to the wind before she was out of confinement, and coupled with the loss of qi and blood, she looked a little weak.

"Okay, then I'll go with my sister."

Li Shishi handed the bowl to Hua Yun, then sat down beside her, looking at the sleeping boy with a smile on her face.

"That little expression, the more I look at it, the more it resembles my husband."

She tried to reach out and touch the child's cheek, but then seemed afraid of waking him, so she pulled her finger back halfway.

"It's alright, he's sleeping soundly, he won't wake up."

Hua Yun noticed Li Shishi's subtle actions and said to her with a smile.

"If your sister likes children, she can have one too."

"Sister, the Crown Prince will always be the Crown Prince."

Li Shishi was very clear-headed about this. Although she had a good relationship with Hua Yun and now had Li Ying, her "brother," as her "family," she was still aware of the situation.

But who is Hua Yun? She accompanied Liangshan from scratch, was the first to marry Ren Yuan, and her older brother Hua Rong was the best archer in the world and was once ranked eighteenth on the martial arts list!

Compared to Hua Yun, Li Shishi's background was really nothing, so she gave up on that idea a long time ago.

In her opinion, given Ren Yuan's personality, as long as she didn't do anything wrong, Ren Yuan would never mistreat her, and the same goes for Hua Yun.

Therefore, before Hua Yun became pregnant, Li Shishi wisely controlled her situation, thus avoiding being drawn into the so-called struggle for the heir apparent. Now, Hua Yun suddenly says that he...

"Little sister, that's not what I meant."

Hua Yun quickly put the bowl back on the tray and said, "My sister is of a suitable age now, it's time for her to have her own child. Besides, two children growing up together will keep each other company."

Hua Yun hadn't really thought about the issue of whether or not someone was the heir apparent, because on the day the child was born, although Ren Yuan wasn't there, Zhou Tong's attitude at the time had already shown everyone everything.

After Li Shishi married Ren Yuan, she had an excellent relationship with Hua Yun, so close that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were like sisters. Therefore, Hua Yun really wanted Li Shishi to have a child.

"Let's talk about it when my husband returns to the mountain. By the way, sister, have you named the child yet?"

Li Shishi certainly wanted to have a child, but now was not the best time to talk about it, so she cleverly changed the subject.

"We don't have a name yet. Master said that my husband should name it."

Hua Yun looked at her son with eyes full of doting affection.

"Has my husband mentioned anything?"

“I did mention it a few times before, and I also asked my master whether it was better to use a single character or a double character.”

Hua Yun thought about it and realized that she did seem to have mentioned this issue before.

“My husband thinks a single character is fine, but my master says that a two-character name is more helpful for naming our children and determining their generational order in the future.”

"Master, have you even thought about the seniority system?"

Li Shishi was a little curious.

"Hmm, it seems that last time we said it was 'Jing Xuan Cheng Hua, Heng Ren Ji Xiang, Shou Zheng Kai Yuan, De Yun Shen Tong'. That's a total of sixteen characters. If Dayi still exists after sixteen generations, then we'll start over from the beginning."

Hua Yun recalled for a moment and said.

"My husband will definitely listen to his master, so what should we name this child, Ren Jing?"

Li Shishi gently touched the baby boy's face; he was indeed fast asleep and hadn't woken up.

“My husband once said that if it were a single character, he would name me Ren Yuan, which is the name of a sage and also implies that a dragon is hidden in the abyss.”

"Ren Yuan, Ren Yuan... Ren Yuan?"

After reading the names several times, Li Shishi suddenly felt that the two names were just too similar!

"Yes, that's the problem, which is why the name didn't come about."

Hua Yun said that the old man rejected the name outright, saying he had never heard of a father and son having such similar names.

"My husband, what should I name her..."

Li Shishi covered her mouth and secretly laughed.

"So the child's name probably won't be too... but it's okay, as long as he chose it, it's fine."

Hua Yun herself was also smiling. The little boy in his sleep seemed to have a premonition of something, and his brows suddenly furrowed, but Hua Yun quickly smoothed them out.

"My son, your father is a great hero..."

……

Standing at the bow of the boat in front of the Golden Beach, Ren Yuan stared excitedly at the shore, wishing he could jump ashore immediately.

"Brother, the online army is already very quick. Just bear with it a little longer, and you'll see your wife and child soon."

Shi Qian saw the expectation in Ren Yuan's heart and comforted him.

"I'm so excited, Shi Qian! I'm a dad! I have a son! Do you know how this feels? Oh, no, you don't. You still have to work hard!"

Ren Yuan patted Shi Qian on the shoulder and teased him.

"Brother, if you keep saying that, I'll tell everyone about everything you did when we went to Tokyo to rescue Madam Lin!"

“Speak up, Yun’er is my wife now, and Shishi is also my wife, what can you say? If you say anything, I’ll tell Bai Huang that you used to pretend to be a woman…”

Before he could finish speaking, Shi Qian was shocked!

"Brother, you promised back then not to mention this, and a king's word is his bond!"

"Nonsense, I wasn't the emperor back then. A emperor's word is law. Go find the emperor, why are you looking for me..."
