Daming: My boss Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 330 What is Li Ke?

After seeing the food and embarking on the armored ship, Zhu Yuanzhang drove back to the palace with satisfaction, and the officials also left.

After the conquest of Japan was decided, all the ministries of the imperial court quickly took action. The Ministry of War mobilized navy troops from various coastal guards. The Ministry of Household Affairs asked Li Wei for money to buy grain, grass and luggage. Li Wei himself also asked Longjiang Chuanshi to speed up the renovation of those wooden ships. , and the ironclad ship also needs to be modified again. With rubber, the sealing problem will be much better.

In addition to these, Li Wei also specifically said hello when the Ministry of War mobilized troops, specifying Shi Jun and Lin Xian.

Shi Jun is not a bad person. If he wants to come here, of course he will be trained to be one of his own. As for Lin Xian, of course he will be given some shoes to wear!
The person in charge of the Ministry of War now is He Li, who was also beaten severely by Jinyiwei Zhenfusi. Naturally, he did not dare to disobey Li Wei's small request. The order to mobilize troops was issued, and Shi Jun, who was detained by Lin Xian, was quickly released. , and Lin Xian himself, after being reprimanded by Zhu Yuanzhang's order, was demoted to a thousand households and transferred to the capital.

However, it was not that he did not fight back. The day after Li Wei left, he sent someone to hand over the impeachment memorial, but Li Wei was one step ahead, and the memorial did not even make a splash when he handed it over. .

While others were actively preparing for the conquest of Japan, Li Wei stayed at home because An Qing was about to give birth.

In the backyard of the Prince Consort's Mansion, An Qing pouted and hugged his round belly. His waist was no longer as slender as before.

Li Wei accompanied her attentively, and people like Xiaoqing, Xiaohong, and Duan Yu were all hanging around her, which made her a little nervous.

"Li Wei, do you think I will die after giving birth like the emperor's wife did?" An Qing asked worriedly.

"Ah bah bah! Don't talk nonsense, it won't happen!" Li Wei said quickly.

"But isn't that what you said at the beginning?"

"I lied to you on purpose."

An Qing suddenly became unhappy: "Why did you lie to me?"

"Uh..." Li Wei was suddenly speechless.

One moment and another, now this little princess is already a little daughter-in-law. To be honest, it will definitely not work.

"Anyway, everything will be fine!" Li Wei made a fool of himself, quickly changed his target and asked the people beside him, "Do you think so?"

"Yes, having a baby is easy, nothing will happen."

"Yes, don't worry, princess."

Xiaoqing and Xiaohong both offered words of comfort, and Duan Yu also nodded.

However, Anqing did not accept this trick and pouted: "You have never given birth to a child, how do you know?"

"..."

The three of them were immediately speechless.

After a moment of silence, Li Wei suddenly had an idea and said, "Of course nothing will happen. Look at the ladies in the palace who give birth to children every once in a while, aren't they okay?"

After hearing this, An Qing thought about it and realized that it was really the case, and he immediately felt relieved.

Seeing that she was finally comforted, Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, it is quite dangerous to have children in this era. I dare not say more. What percentage of the mortality rate should be there, but in later generations, it will be about one in 10,000.

Of course, this also depends on who it is. For example, if the royal family has superior conditions, it will definitely be much better than the common people.

And here in Anqing, Li Wei is fully prepared. There are sterile delivery rooms, sterilizing equipment, midwives and doctors. It can be said that the production conditions in Anqing are the most superior in the world today.

Since Li Wei doesn't know when An Qing will be born, he has been changing these things every day recently to ensure they are always available. He is also by her side every day, for fear of the bloody plot in the TV series, where a group of family members are always on the lookout for pregnant women. At the moment when I was about to give birth, everything was not around me.

As time went by, navy soldiers and horses were in place one after another, and people kept coming to him for instructions and reports, but he postponed them and waited patiently for the day when the child was born.

Zhu Yuanzhang may have known about his situation and did not send anyone to urge him.

Three days, five days, eight days and ten days, there was still no movement, and Li Wei was a little impatient waiting.

Finally one morning, An Qing pushed Li Wei to wake up.

Li Wei opened his eyes drowsily and saw An Qing's small face raising his hands in panic, with large blood stains on his hands.

"I...am I going to die?" An Qing said timidly.

Li Wei suddenly sat up and shouted: "Someone is coming, someone is coming quickly!"

After shouting several times, he turned around and comforted An Qing: "Don't worry, this is normal, you are going to give birth!"

An Qing was a little nervous, and also had severe abdominal pain, so she held his arm tightly.

After a while, Xiao Hong, Xiao Qing and others rushed in after hearing the commotion.

Li Wei quickly ordered: "An Qing is about to give birth, go and call someone!"

"Yes Yes!"

Some of Xiaoyue Xiaocui and the female officials went out to call for help, while others stayed to help Anqing get up and send her to the delivery room carefully prepared by Li Wei.

When he reached the door of the delivery room, Li Wei asked everyone to stop. Only Xiaoqing and Xiaoyue accompanied Anqing in. At the same time, he asked them to pay attention to their own disinfection and cleanliness. He had taught them this many times.

Then the midwife was called over, and Li Wei warned him again. Although the midwife was experienced, she didn't dare to be careless about Li Wei's instructions, and she didn't even say yes.

After a period of hustle and bustle, Anqing finally entered the delivery room safely, and the midwife had made arrangements. Other maids and servants were boiling water, preparing tools, clean cloths, etc. Before dawn, the Prince Consort's Mansion was already busy.

In addition, he has also arranged for someone to call the imperial doctor, who should be there soon.

In this day and age, it is naturally impossible for a male imperial physician to deliver a baby, but if danger arises, the imperial physician can still give guidance.

Li Wei paced back and forth outside the door, fidgeting. As An Qing screamed, he rushed to the door eagerly: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Cui, who was guarding the door, quickly stopped him: "Master Hou, you can't come in."

"Then go and ask me what's going on inside?" Li Wei paused and said.

Xiaocui advised: "Master Hou, this is not the case for all women giving birth. This is just the beginning. You'd better wait."

"Just go if you are told, what nonsense!" Li Wei said fiercely.

Xiaocui pouted aggrievedly, and could only bow down and walk in obediently.

"This little girl is not cute at all!" Li Wei scolded her back.

After a while, Xiaocui, who was carrying the heavy responsibility, came out and said respectfully: "Master Hou, the midwife said that the princess has just started giving birth and everything is normal. Master Hou, there is no need to worry."

Hearing this, Li Wei could only endure his anxiety and wait patiently.

An Qing kept shouting. After a while, Li Wei called Xiaoyue again and asked, "When will the imperial doctor arrive?"

"Go back to the Marquis. I've already sent someone to invite him. He will probably arrive soon." Xiaoyue said obediently.

Li Wei nodded: "In this case, you go and guard outside the house, and when the imperial doctor comes, bring him in quickly."

"Okay sir!"

Xiaoyue left in a hurry obediently.

Xiaocui stood guard at the door, looking at Li Wei with some fear, wanting to change places with Xiaoyue.

"You, go in and take a look again!" Li Wei turned his head and said to her fiercely.

Xiao Cui suddenly pulled her face...

Time seems to have become extremely long, and every moment is suffering. Li Wei walked back and forth outside the door, feeling restless.

I don't know how long it took, but Xiaoyue came over with Dai Sigong, Liu Chun and several other doctors.

"I've met the Marquis!"

Li Wei waved his hand and asked eagerly: "No need to be polite, Anqing has been in for a long time now, and the baby hasn't been born yet. Is there any danger?"

Dai Sigong looked up at him and asked, "May I ask, Lord Marquis, when did the princess give birth?"

Li Wei frowned and thought. He couldn't remember when it was. He just felt that it had been a long time.

Seeing this, Xiaoyue next to her reminded: "Master Hou, it's Mao Shi."

When Dai Sigong heard this, he glanced at the sky. At this time, the sky was just getting dark, and it was less than an hour ago. "Master Marquis, don't worry. Your Highness the Princess has just given birth. Master Marquis, just wait patiently."

Dai Sigong comforted him softly.

Li Wei let out a long breath and could only nod his head and continue waiting.

The sun jumped above the ground and gradually rose above the branches. Everyone in the Prince Consort's Mansion gathered outside the delivery room and waited nervously. Even though the servants brought him a chair, he couldn't sit still. He kept instructing Xiaocui to go in and ask about the situation. After getting the reply, He asked the imperial doctor again.

At noon, Li Wei asked the imperial doctors eagerly: "Why does it take so long? Is Anqing really going to be fine? Don't comfort me, tell the truth!"

Liu Chun held up his hand and said, "Please be patient, Lord Marquis. Her Royal Highness's first delivery will take a longer time. As long as she gives birth before dark, she should be fine."

"So long?" Li Wei was surprised.

"That's how a woman gives birth. Don't worry, Mr. Hou." Dai Sigong also followed.

Li Wei frowned and said nothing, feeling even more worried.

As evening approached, Li Wei couldn't bear it anymore and turned around to enter the delivery room: "No, I have to go in and take a look."

"No, no, Lord Marquis, you can't come in!" Xiaocui stopped him quickly.

Dai Sigong and others also hurriedly stepped forward to help: "No, Mr. Hou, the midwife just said that the birth was normal, Mr. Hou, don't worry."

"Yes, Lord Marquis, if you go in, you will be overjoyed, which will not be good for you, the princess, or the child!"

"Yes, Lord Hou!"

Other female officials and maids also stopped and persuaded him.

"Oops!" Li Wei waved his hand impatiently, "You are all superstitious. I have some knowledge about the number of children born. Let me go in and give you some advice!"

"No, no, no!" Xiao Cui was determined and resisted to the death.

This time, Xiaoyue, who had always been obedient, also had the same attitude as her, and everyone else, including everyone else, tried their best to stop her.

While everyone was tearing apart, with a shout from outside, Zhu Yuanzhang and his elders came over after finishing the government affairs.

"See Your Majesty!"

Everyone stopped and hurriedly saluted.

"What's going on?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked, looking at Li Wei's slightly messy clothes.

Li Wei shook his robe, raised his hands and said nonsense: "Your Majesty, I want to go in and help. You know, I also have some research on medical skills."

In fact, he didn't know anything about medical skills. At most, he only knew some common medical knowledge and commonly used medicines. He just wanted to go in and see the situation.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care about this at all and scolded directly: "Asshole, how can you, a grown man, go in when a woman gives birth to a child? Just stay here!"

"Yes, Brother Li, please be patient!" Zhu Biao also comforted him.

After the initial cool incident, Zhu Biao decided to have a private discussion with him and asked Brother Li to appear closer to him.

Li Wei opened his mouth when he heard this. Facing these two people, he could only be obedient and calm down.

As the sun set, Li Wei became more and more anxious. Imperial doctors such as Dai Sigong and Liu Chun also said that if the baby was born before dark, it would be fine.

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and looked at him, and said in a rare soft voice: "Don't worry, it takes a long time for women to give birth to a baby for the first time. It will be fine in the future."

He was also a little worried, otherwise he wouldn't have come in person.

After all, Anqing was his and Empress Ma's favorite youngest daughter. The emperor's eldest grandson and Empress Ma passed away this year. If another accident happened to Anqing, it would be another painful blow to him.

Li Wei nodded perfunctorily and stared anxiously at the door of the delivery room.

"Come out soon, princess, push harder, breathe in, push harder!"

In the delivery room, the midwife encouraged her while using her hands to help with compressions.

At this time, An Qing no longer looked as naughty as before. His whole body was wet with sweat and he gritted his teeth hard.

"what!"

"Wow...wow..."

"Come out, come out!"

After a long scream from her, the baby's cry finally came out, and the midwife screamed with joy.

Outside the door, Li Wei's anxious face suddenly froze when he heard the baby's cry, and after a moment he slowly opened his mouth.

"Girl, baby! I'm a father!"

Li Wei shouted in surprise, and was so excited that he grabbed Zhu Yuanzhang beside him and shook him: "Old Zhu, Anqing has given birth, and I am a father!"

The word "Dad" was quite new, but Zhu Yuanzhang could guess it. At first, he was still smiling and didn't care about Li Wei's rudeness. But when he heard this brat calling him "Lao Zhu", his face suddenly darkened. :
"Call Father!"

"Uh, okay, Your Majesty." Li Wei's expression froze, and he quickly changed his mind and changed his words.

"Humph!"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly and let him know for the time being. After all, it was a happy day.

At this time, everyone else was also smiling and congratulated one after another.

After a while, the door of the delivery room opened, and the midwife took out the baby: "Congratulations, Lord Marquis, you are a little prince!"

Li Wei quickly stepped forward and took a closer look, but when he saw the child's appearance clearly, the smile on his face suddenly stopped: "This... is a bit ugly."

"What do you know? Children are like this when they are born. They will get better after a while."

Zhu Yuanzhang is extremely experienced. Now he has almost twenty sons alone, and even more countless daughters.

Li Wei thought for a while, and it seemed that this was indeed the case, and then a smile appeared on his face again.

"The child hasn't been named yet, has he?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked again.

"No." Li Wei said casually.

"That's just right. Let's get one for him."

"Uh, okay."

Li Wei, who was looking at his son, thought for a while and nodded in agreement. He was not confident in his literary level. Although Zhu Yuanzhang was only a commoner, he was self-taught and should have a good name.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded lightly and said thoughtfully: "As the saying goes, be diligent and thrifty. You are quite capable, but you are just too lazy. Let's call this kid Li Hackin. I hope he won't be like you in the future!"

Li Wei was stunned: "Li Ke what?"

"Keqin Li."

"Is this Li Hacken from Li Hacken?"

"..."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him with an unhappy expression.

Li Wei waved his hands in panic: "No, no, no, no, Your Majesty, this name is too loud, and my son can't afford it. I think he should be called Li Kejian, Kejian is pretty good!"

"What name can't our grandson deserve?" Zhu Yuanzhang scolded.

"The main reason is that I'm afraid of infringement!" Li Wei said with an embarrassed look on his face.

"What a mess, I Jinkou Yuyan, that's what I called him. This is also a spur to you, so that when you think of your eldest son's name, you can always be alert and don't always think about being lazy!"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his sleeves and made the final decision.

Li Wei had a sad face and felt extremely regretful. If I had known this earlier, I would have never agreed to let him name her! (End of chapter)
