Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 2286
Closing his eyes, Baili Celing could still recall the appearance of those little clothes.

From the pile of little clothes, he could tell that Bailixi really wanted a daughter this time, not just lip service.

He also entered the palace when she was pregnant with her first child, and Bai Lixi also made a lot of clothes for her first child.But at that time, all she made were boy's clothes, and each piece was embroidered with blue dragon patterns.

Qinglong is the family crest of the Eastern Wu royal family, and only the direct branch or the prince who has won the title of county king can use it.

When Bailixi was pregnant with her first child, she urgently needed a son to consolidate her position in the palace, so all she wanted was to have a son.

The success of Zhao Muren's birth allowed him to secure the position of queen. It seems that his sister finally breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to be a good mother again.

Baili Celing felt a little heavy.

In fact, he could more or less guess why Bailixi wanted a daughter this time.Because only a daughter can stay with her and let her raise herself.

In order to prevent foreign relatives from intervening in politics, the old ruler of Soochow formulated extremely strict palace rules, one of which was not to allow Soochow's heirs to grow in the hands of women.Although Zhao Muren was conceived by Bailixi in Shiyue, she was not allowed to raise her by herself, and was taken away as soon as she was born.

After being crowned prince at the age of two, Zhao Muren was only allowed to live in his own East Palace, and could only see his mother on certain days.

Although the former king and queen of Eastern Wu had a strong relationship, they could not disobey the rules set by the old lord. Bailixi had a submissive personality, and he didn't want to cry to her husband all the time, so she could only weep silently at night.

Baili Celing had never met Zhao Muren's nephew.

In short, until the day before Bailixi's fetal movement occurred, she looked very healthy and energetic.When Baili Celing went to see her, she was still sitting by the window embroidering something, and there was already a high pile of pink and tender clothes beside her.

Baili Celing looked at himself in his memory and sat down next to his sister, touched the pile of little clothes, "It's fine to have a daughter, but if sister, you give birth to a son in the end, what can the boy wear?"

"This is..."

Bailixi, who was concentrating on embroidery, froze for a moment, raised her head and thought about it, her eyes were a little regretful, "If it comes to that time, if it really doesn't work, I can only do it again."

"If I don't make it in time, there's still the Needlework Bureau."

Sure enough, the son picked it up, and only the daughter's clothes were made by himself.Baili Celing smiled wryly.

"However, if it is really a son, there is still something he can use." Bailixi took out a thing from the small clothes pile and dangled it triumphantly in front of his younger brother.

"This is..." Baili Celing saw the thing floating in front of his eyes, and smiled more wryly, "Is this newborn baby useful? Could it be that you made it for His Majesty?"

"Why can't it be used?" Bailixi said unconvinced, "What if the child is born with extraordinary talent and thick hair?"

Facing the mother who was making unreasonable words in front of him, Baili Celing could only keep a smile on his face, as long as she was happy.

Are you gifted?
Baili Celing looked at the object held in Bailixi's hand.

It was a hair band with patterns of blue dragons embroidered on it.

It was embroidered by Bailixi himself.

……

……

It's just that Bailixi couldn't tie this hairband on his son himself.

At noon on the second day after Baili Celing entered the palace, Bailixi was activated.

Baili Celing was having lunch at the mansion, and rushed out immediately after receiving the news.

However, the moment he stepped out of the threshold, there was a sudden thunder above his head. He raised his head, and the sky was covered with dark clouds.

The sky is still clear in the morning.

A shadow suddenly cast over Baili Celing's heart, with an ominous premonition.

However, regardless of the weather, the production of Bailixi was very smooth at the beginning.

The child was already full-term, and the delivery room and stable wife had already been prepared in the palace. When Baili Cering arrived, Bailixi's bedroom was already surrounded by the most elite Jinwu guards in Soochow. Basin maids come and go.

"Is it Xi'er's younger brother? Let him in."

Because of the queen's warrant, it was not difficult for Baili Celing to enter the palace, but he was stopped by the Jinwu Guard at the entrance of the palace.At this time, vigorous voices came from the side hall one by one.

Baili Celing was led to the side hall, and he was taken aback as soon as he stepped into the hall.

Because there is one person sitting on the main seat of the side hall, it is his brother-in-law, Zhao Dan, king of Eastern Wu.

At that time, Zhao Dan was about 40 to [-] years old, with a heroic appearance, sword eyebrows and star eyes, which was the standard appearance of a general.

Standing beside Zhao Dan was a boy of seven or eight years old, wearing a small purple gold crown, his eyebrows and eyes were almost the same as him, but if he looked carefully, he could see some shadows of Bailixi.

He was obviously only seven or eight years old, but his lips were tightly pressed together, giving him the appearance of a young adult.

Even though he hadn't seen him a few times, Baili Celing recognized the child as Bailixi's eldest son Zhao Muren at a glance.

Baili Celing was somewhat surprised by this battle.The birth of a child in the royal family is different from that of the common people. The king of a country generally does not attend the birth, and the palace servants report the birth of the child after it is born.

But today, the King of Soochow and the Prince of Soochow both arrived at the scene.Although counterintuitive, this is not the most surprising.

What surprised Baili Celing the most was that there was a person sitting beside Zhao Dan, king of Eastern Wu.

The sitting person had white beard and hair, his eyes were tightly closed, he was wearing a dark blue sacrificial robe, and a giant sword was hanging from his waist.

This person is Dong Wu Guoshi, Dongfang Yi.

Why does the national teacher have to come when a queen gives birth to a child?
A huge question arose in Baili Celing's heart.

Seeing him coming in, the King of Soochow Wu sat without moving, but pushed Zhao Muren who was standing aside, "I've seen your uncle."

Zhao Muren's eyes were full of strangeness, but he still walked up to him and bowed obediently, "Uncle."

Baili Celing hurriedly returned the gift, after all, although Zhao Muren was young, his status was far above him.

He bowed, but secretly looked at the only person in the room who was still sitting besides Zhao Dan.

Because of Dongfang Yi's old age and the person invited back by the old Soochow King, she enjoys privileges and can sit in front of the King.

But Baili Cering had met him a few times before, and Dongfang Yi hadn't been so arrogant that he wouldn't even open his eyes when outsiders came in.

But from the time she stepped in to now, Dongfang Yi is still sitting on a chair next to Zhao Dan, with her eyes closed and her brows furrowed.

This appearance... is like facing a big enemy.

But today, it was his sister who gave birth, and it wasn't that some foreign practitioners invaded the Imperial Prayer Province.

Baili Celing became more and more uneasy, walked to Zhao Muren, bowed down and asked in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with the Queen?"

Zhao Dan didn't show any emotion on his face, "It's just started now, and the imperial doctor said everything is normal now."

Then why are there so many people gathered here, and the atmosphere is so ominous?
At this moment, a woman's cry of pain came from the outer hall, and Baili Celing's heart tightened.
