Chapter 164: Saving the Crazy Mistress in Sheep's Clothing
Gradually, Wen Yang's eyes became blurred. She hooked her hands weakly around Ling Han's neck, and her clothes fell to the ground unconsciously. The charcoal brazier in the bedroom made crackling sounds from time to time.
It's winter, but the house is filled with spring, a night of romance...
......
A year later, it was a clear and crisp autumn day.
Wen Yang was taking a walk in the imperial garden, enjoying the warm autumn sun and cool autumn breeze.
After being tired, I found a pavilion to sit down.
At this time, Wen Yang was already seven months pregnant, and her lower abdomen had already shown a noticeable bulge.
Qiuju was serving carefully at the side. Just as she served Wen Yang a cup of tea, she heard footsteps approaching from afar.
Wen Yang also looked up in the direction of the voice and saw Ling Han, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, walking towards her.
"How do you feel today? Are you feeling unwell?" Ling Han also walked to the pavilion and sat down, asking Wen Yang in a gentle tone.
Wen Yang looked at the person in front of him and smiled slightly, "I'm not feeling unwell, it's just that this child keeps kicking me in the stomach, so I brought him out for a walk."
"How dare you kick my Ayang! When he comes out, I will teach him a lesson for you!" Ling Han frowned slightly and pretended to scold the child in Wen Yang's belly.
Wen Yang was stunned. She found that whenever Ling Han was by her side, he no longer had that sharp imperial aura. When they were together, they were more like an ordinary couple.
Thinking of this, a gentle smile appeared in Wen Yang's eyes, and she replied softly: "Okay."
He then rested in the pavilion for a while, personally sent Wen Yang back to his bedroom, and then went on to deal with state affairs.
Time flies, and soon it is the day when Wen Yang is due to give birth.
The entire palace was immersed in a tense atmosphere. After all, this was the emperor's first child since the change of dynasty.
In the bedroom, Wen Yang was lying on the bed. The midwife was already in place, instructing the palace maids to prepare the necessary items.
Wen Yang looked at the busy palace servants and couldn't help but feel a little nervous. The midwife saw the tension on Wen Yang's face and said softly, "Don't worry, Queen. I have helped many nobles give birth before. Just follow my instructions and you will definitely give birth safely."
Wen Yang could already feel the regular pain in her lower body at this moment. Her face was pale and she nodded weakly.
The midwife lifted the covering cloth, found out the situation, and then calmly instructed the palace maid beside her to hand over scissors, hot water, and a towel.
Ling Han was also standing outside the door, pacing anxiously. Whenever a palace servant came out with a basin of water, he would eagerly ask about Wen Yang's condition.
Although the palace servants said that the queen was fine, Ling Han was still worried.
Just as he was about to rush into the delivery room despite the obstruction, the tightly closed palace door opened, followed by a loud cry.
A midwife rushed out joyfully and announced, "The Queen has given birth! It's a prince! Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
Upon hearing this news, Ling Han was stunned for a moment.
After a while, he rushed into the bedroom in a hurry.
As soon as he came in, he saw Wen Yang lying on the bed with a pale face.
Ling Han strode to the bedside, squatted down, gently held Wen Yang's hand, and whispered: "Ayang, you have suffered." There was unstoppable heartache in his eyes.
When Wen Yang heard Ling Han's words, she shook her head slightly, "Ah Han, our child has finally come into this world."
At this time, the palace servants brought the cleaned little prince to Ling Han, but Ling Han just glanced at him lightly, then looked away and turned his attention back to Wen Yang.
Wen Yang also glanced sideways and found that the child in the palace maid's arms was still red and wrinkled.
She couldn't help but smile, but she didn't know that this smile would affect the wound on her body.
She just frowned slightly, and Ling Han immediately became nervous.
It wasn't until Wen Yang's brows relaxed a little that Ling Han felt relieved.
Because she had exhausted all her energy during childbirth, Wen Yang felt a little drowsy at the moment.
Ling Han looked at Wen Yang like this, so he raised his hand and gently stroked Wen Yang's cheek, saying softly: "Ayang, you should have a good rest first."
Then he gently released Wen Yang's hand, stood up, and whispered to the palace servants waiting beside him, "Take good care of the Queen."
Only after the palace servants responded respectfully did Ling Han leave the bedroom.
......
Ling Han named his and Wen Yang's first child Xiao Xiangyang, which was something he and Wen Yang had discussed long ago.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the wrinkled child in the cradle has grown into a delicate and lovely glutinous rice dumpling, lively and cute, and is deeply loved by everyone in the palace.
However, as the child grew up, the ministers in the court became somewhat worried.
Because after so many years, the Queen's belly has not moved again. The Prime Minister once tactfully mentioned to Ling Han that he wanted to fill the harem, but there was no further development after that.
So one day after a court meeting, several senior ministers decided to submit another memorial, urging Ling Han to take in more concubines and fill his harem to ensure the continuation of the orthodox royal bloodline.
An old minister stepped forward and said earnestly, "Your Majesty, the harem is now empty, and having an heir is crucial to the future of the country. Please reconsider!"
However, Ling Han sat on the dragon throne with a calm expression. He gently waved his hand and said, "My dear ministers, there is no need to worry about this matter. I will make the decision myself."
Seeing Ling Han unmoved, the veteran ministers frowned and had no choice but to find another way. They advised, "Since this is the case, Your Majesty, would you consider appointing a crown prince as soon as possible to strengthen the foundation of the country?"
Ling Han remained unmoved. "My dear ministers, there is no need to worry about the Crown Prince's affairs. I have my own arrangements."
The suggestion of enthroning a crown prince was not adopted. The ministers looked at each other, anxious but helpless.
Moreover, the ministers discovered that His Majesty not only did not appoint Xiao Xiangyang as the crown prince, but also allowed Xiao Xiangyang to grow up freely, as if he had no intention of training Xiao Xiangyang as the heir to the throne!
But they had said everything they could, and since His Majesty wouldn't listen, there was nothing they could do.
A few years passed like this, and when the ministers were about to try to persuade him again, Ling Han suddenly ordered to recall Xiao Qing'an, who had already been named a prince and left the palace.
