king of ros

Chapter 152
Outside his room in the Moscow Princely Palace, Rostislav was very anxious and was restless.

The servants looked at the fidgeting prince, they didn't know what to do, and finally they brought wine, and Rostislav drank glass after glass, using alcohol to numb his nervous heart.

Now the prince's mind is all about his wife's pregnancy, and this child is related to the future of Moscow.

And more importantly, although he has been a human for two lifetimes, this is the first time he has a child, and the tension is even more indescribable.

At some point, the important figures of the entire court gathered around, the city administrator, the captain of the personal army, and the bishop of Moscow, they all stood with the prince, accompanied their prince, and waited nervously for news.

Bishop Luka put his hands on Rostislav's shoulders, and gave his student a comforting look. Looking at the eyes that had given him countless encouragements since childhood, the tension and anxiety in the prince's heart also dissipated.

Gevalan stood seriously beside his master, didn't say much, but just guarded him silently. The captain of the personal army is not a person who is good at expressing his feelings, so he will only guard silently.

As for Leo, his worries were no less than that of Rostislav. Zoe was no longer just a weight to him, but more about the feelings of his adoptive father for his adopted daughter.

However, under his worry, there was a trace of ecstasy that even he himself didn't realize. Zoe was pregnant with the prince's offspring, which meant that the position of the Greeks was completely secure.

Leo knew that the status of these Greeks depended entirely on Zoe, and Zoe's pregnancy made their status truly established—of course, the most important thing was the assurance of his status.

Finally, the door of the room opened a small gap, just enough to allow a person to come out, Zoe's maid came out, she closed the wooden door carefully, and then saluted all the adults present.

"My lord, it has been confirmed that Mrs. Zooey is pregnant."

Hearing the news, Rostislav Vladimirovich subconsciously crossed himself: "Thank God!"

The people present also cheered, the prince was so happy, how could they not respond, and the significance brought by the prince's descendants is also huge to them.

The people of the Moscow court had been looking forward to an heir for a long time, and the fact that the prince had no offspring made many people very worried, for fear that if the prince died suddenly, it would cause chaos.

This is not without precedent. There have been several such incidents among the ancestors of the prince. When such an incident occurs, the lives of everyone attached to the prince's court will be seriously affected, and even wars will be caused to divide the prince's inheritance. That's the mess that no one wants.

But now, with Zoe's pregnancy, that problem has been solved - and most importantly, Rostislav and Zoe are both fertile, which is more important than anything else.

The prince who got the news suddenly felt a feeling of ecstasy welling up in his heart, and then he immediately entered the room and looked at his wife.

Zooey was lying on the bed, with a woolen sheet covering her body, with white patterns on the sheet.Seeing the prince coming in, the maids in the room immediately put down their work and paid respects to the prince.

The Persian medical officer named Ibn also came in at this moment. He was carrying a few large packages in his hand. Seeing the prince walking towards his wife, the doctor knew that it was not the time to talk about these things to the prince and his wife, so he just pulled them away. The maid ordered.

And the protagonist Zoe's fair face was flushed, and the sudden pregnancy news made the young lady a little shy.

Rostislav sat by Zoe's bed, and at the same time waved for the others present to leave immediately.

Following the gesture of the prince, whether it was the maid or the doctor, they all bowed humbly and quickly left the room, leaving the two of them alone.

The prince held his wife's hands, this intimate move made his wife's face flush even deeper, her eyes shyly avoided the prince's eyes that exuded enthusiasm and joy.

"Zoe, thank you so much."

The prince touched his wife's hair. Zoe's hair was soft and shiny, and it felt extremely comfortable to the touch.

This action made Madam even more shy. She shook her head and broke away from her husband's hand.

"Don't treat me like a child."

The wife who acted like a child said she was not a child.

Seeing his wife's reaction, Rostislav was amused and didn't know what to say. Sometimes his wife would show that very cute little daughter attitude, and at that time, Rostislav's desire to "bully" her was the strongest. strong time.

But now is not the time to do these things, he ordered his wife to take care of himself, followed the doctor's request, and the prince left the room.

Because he had to tell the world the news quickly.

--------

The news about the prince's wife's pregnancy spread quickly. There was no secret at all in the palace. In addition, the prince took the initiative to spread the news, and the news quickly spread throughout the city.

Officials posted notices on billboards, and riders carried the news all over Moscow and beyond.

The people are all happy for their princes to have an offspring, because it means a smooth transfer of power in the future, which means the continuation of stability and peace, which is what ordinary people look forward to most.

What makes the people most happy is that in order to celebrate the pregnancy of the prince's wife, Moscow officials will generously splash gold and silver on the streets.

Silver coins from the Kyiv mint, dirham silver from the Eastern world, and hryvnia, which are essentially silver ingots, were all generously poured out to the crowd, and what the princes wanted in return was simple, as long as they felt happy for it. Just be happy, be happy for his children.

Many citizens thought of Yaroslav's generosity, and the wise Grand Duke was often so generous, and they saw the shadow of the Grand Duke in Rostislav - especially since the current ruler of Kyiv is a miser Down.

The nobles, businessmen, and Moscow bureaucrats were also very happy. The heirs of princes and princes represented stability, and their power could be passed on. Everyone took this as a joy and rushed to tell each other.

As the news spread, the relevant personnel in the prince's palace became more and more busy. The servants had to prepare special rooms for pregnant women, and the doctor had to prepare a large amount of medicine for preparation.

Even the guards have been strengthened accordingly. Now the prince's personal soldiers and entourage can be seen everywhere in the palace, as well as Zoe's guards.

This is the first child of the prince of Moscow, and everyone has to face it with the most serious attitude.
