Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 869 Concubine Chen gave birth to a daughter named Ruixue
Zhilan Hall.

There was wind and snow outside, and Chang'an, which had already entered the winter months, was getting colder and colder. However, compared to the early years of Zhenguan, the current winter is not so unbearable.Li Zhiyun remembers that the beginning of the Tang Dynasty was a warming period once every few hundred years, and the superior climate brought prerequisites for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

Right now, his mind is not on these things.

Concubine Chen is about to give birth.

Wen Po has already gone in to induce labor, but more than an hour has passed, and there is still no news from inside.Therefore, he was a little nervous.To be honest, with more and more heirs these years, Li Zhiyun's 'father' is becoming more and more incompetent. Almost all the sons born after he ascended the throne are not very close to him. With fear.

Even he himself is gradually becoming numb now.Because there are many children, and he has to be busy with government affairs, he really doesn't have so much time to take care of them one by one.

In the hall, apart from him, there are Empress Yang, Jinyang, and Liyang.

"Don't worry, it will be fine." Empress Yang gently hugged Li Lizhi to comfort her.

Li Lizhi bit her red lips lightly with her white teeth, her little head lowered.Her mother is her only relative, and she can't imagine how she will survive if her mother has an accident.

The emperor stood in front of the door, looking at Xue Hua quietly, his whole person seemed very quiet.

Under such a dignified atmosphere, heart-piercing sounds of pain could be heard from the inner room from time to time.Every time I hear it, Li Zhiyun's mood is tangled up.

Concubine Chen is already in her thirties and is an older woman, so how could he not be worried, not to mention that she is still a woman who occupies a place in his heart.

"No news yet?" Li Zhiyun asked the maid waiting impatiently.

The little palace maid was startled, she quickly knelt down and bowed, then went in to inquire about the situation.

Empress Yang said: "Your Majesty, calm down, Concubine Chen's sister will be safe and sound, and the only one who can help her now is herself."

She has given birth to several children, so she naturally knows who she can rely on most when giving birth.

"I'm very calm." Li Zhiyun took a light breath and said insincerely.

Is he calm?

In fact, he couldn't calm down. Changsun's body has a gas disease. Although she has rarely relapsed in the past two years, but now she is giving birth, what if it recurs?

At this moment, Wen Po came out with a happy face.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, the concubine Chen was born, mother and daughter are safe!"

Hearing this, Li Zhiyun's frozen cheeks gradually began to melt, thousands of words finally turned into one word.

"reward!"

Two hours later.

Li Zhiyun held the newborn little daughter with a loving expression on his face.

Concubine Chen's eldest grandson leaned gently on the soft cushion, wearing confinement clothes, her eyes rested on the emperor's face from time to time.Occasionally, she also watched the wind and snow outside through a gap in the window.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Chen's younger sister has just given birth, so she can't see the wind now." Empress Yang walked over and closed the window.

Li Zhiyun said: "Stay a bit, take a breath, don't hold back."

Empress Yang nodded, leaving a little space.She turned to Concubine Chen and said with a smile: "My sister gave birth to a baby for His Majesty this time."

It is nothing new for the emperor to dote on his daughters. After all, who made the emperor have so few daughters.What's more, the daughter born this time was born to Concubine Chen.

Concubine Chen was also full of smiles. For her, having a son is naturally good, but having a daughter is not bad either.

Just after giving birth, she was still a little pale, but she was full of energy.Seeing Li Lizhi standing beside her, she asked, "Did you get scared just now?"

Li Lizhi bit her lip and nodded.

"Mother is fine, don't worry, come, sit here."

Li Lizhi walked to Concubine Chen and sat down, Concubine Chen gently held her daughter's hand.

Li Zhiyun said: "Liyang is very filial. Although she has been silent just now, I can see that she is very worried about you."

Concubine Chen held her daughter's little hand tightly apologetically, and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, Auntie is fine."

"Hmm." She nodded.

Li Zhiyun teased the youngest daughter for a while, and said, "When this child was born Xue, I will give her a nickname, Ruixue."

"Your Majesty, what can you say about this name?" Queen Yang asked.

"Auspicious snow heralds a good year." Li Zhiyun tapped his little daughter gently with his nose, and said affectionately, "Next year must be a good year!"

Jin Yang looked at the little sister, and asked in confusion: "Father, why is this year's auspicious snow and next year's harvest?"

Naturally, Li Zhiyun will not forget his eldest daughter after having a younger daughter. He took Jinyang to sit down and explained to her: "The weather is colder this winter, and the snow that falls is often not easy to melt. It is easier to cover it on the ground." Soft, so that the field will always be very cold. In this way, the eggs left by the pests in this spring and summer will be frozen to death, and next year, there will be a lot less insects in the field. And, next year As the weather warms up, the snow slowly melts and turns into water that stays in the fields, nourishing the crops and making them grow better."

"That's it." Jin Yang nodded thoughtfully, and said, "No wonder, the colder the winter, the better the crops will grow in the coming year. Although it is comfortable during the warm winter, but the second year of the warm winter there will be The plague of locusts, it turned out to be like this."

"Jin Yang is really smart." Concubine Chen praised.It is one thing to be able to understand, but another thing to be able to draw inferences after understanding.

Jin Yang said modestly: "It's all good that my father taught me."

In fact, Li Zhiyun remembered that this kind of situation can only be applied to the area around Dahe. If it is snowing heavily in the south in winter, it is not a good thing.

"I will test you one more question. Whoever can answer it will be rewarded." Li Zhiyun gently shook his little daughter and said to everyone.

Empress Yang said: "Your Majesty, please ask questions."

Li Zhiyun asked: "Do you think it's colder when it snows or when it melts?"

"Naturally when it snows." Li Yang said, "It's very cold when it snows, but when the snow melts, it's the time when the climate warms up."

"Where are you guys?" Li Zhiyun looked at the others.

Empress Yang thought about it: "What Liyang said makes sense."

"What do you think of Jinyang?" Li Zhiyun looked at Jinyang again.

Jin Yang thought about it, and felt that the problem was not that simple, but she also thought that it was indeed colder when it snowed.

"My daughter doesn't know."

Hearing this, Li Zhiyun looked at Concubine Chen, "What does Concubine Ai think?"

Concubine Chen said: "The concubine feels that it is colder when the snow is melting."

"Oh?" Li Zhiyun asked with a smile, "Why?"

"Speaking of which, I don't know why." The concubine Chen recalled: "The concubine only remembers a story of lighting a fire when I was a child. When it snows, the fire is easier to blow, but it is not easy when the snow is melting." .Moreover, every time the snow melts, the concubine will feel very cold, even colder than when it snows."

"Haha, my concubine is smart." Li Zhiyun smiled, almost waking up his little daughter.

Seeing this, Concubine Chen said, "Your Majesty, hand over Ruixue to my concubine."

Li Zhiyun handed his youngest daughter to Concubine Chen, who carefully held her in her arms.

"Father, you haven't explained yet." Jin Yang urged.

Li Zhiyun did not immediately explain, but instead asked: "Jinyang, why do you think the snow melts?"

"Because the weather is warmer, the snow will melt." Jin Yang said as it should.

Li Zhiyun smiled and asked again: "Then why does the snow melt slowly when you hold it with your hands, and why does it melt when you put the snow next to the brazier?"

"Because it's hot." Jin Yang said.

Li Zhiyun nodded and said, "Then, can we think that when the snow melts, it absorbs heat?"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
