728. Go to Baicao(1/2)
Concubine Yang Shu and Ying Er hurriedly walked to the door of the dormitory.
Zhao Dongting was stunned at this moment, his heart was filled with endless joy.
Even when facing thousands of troops and all the civil servants in the court kneeled down, his heart had never been so turbulent.
There were only a few words in my head flashing back and forth, "I'm a dad, I have a baby! I'm a dad..."
The door was opened.
Concubine Yang asked excitedly, "Is it a boy or a girl?"
The midwife and the two palace maids who walked out the door were both blushed and said repeatedly: "Congratulations to the Queen Mother, congratulations to the Emperor, he is a prince."
"Okay, good! Reward, reward!"
Concubine Yang was naturally even more overjoyed.
In this era, even though Zhao Dongting vigorously promoted the concept of gender equality, from court officials to the people, the idea of favoring boys over women was still very important.
This concept that has been passed down since ancient times cannot be changed in a short period of time.
Zhao Dongting, covered in dust, came back to his senses and walked straight into the room.
There are still many palace maids staying inside.
Zhang Ru's close maid carefully held the baby wrapped in a golden cloth.
Seeing Zhao Dongting come in, he hurriedly walked to Zhao Dongting with the child in his arms, "Congratulations to the emperor, he is a prince!"
This close maid had an unconcealable envy in her eyes.
In this era, it was very common for personal maids to sleep with their masters. In the past, there were also examples of personal maids who had a dragon fetus and became concubines by virtue of their sons. The maid was not surprised and fell in love with Zhao Dongting, but unfortunately, Zhao Dongting never wanted to be blessed with her.
Zhao Dongting looked down at the red baby in the maid's hand, looking excited, but did not reach out to hug the child.
It’s not that I don’t want to hug you, but I’m worried that I’ll hurt this tender little guy if I don’t have enough strength.
Then, he quickly walked to the bed.
Zhang Ru's face was pale on the bed, and even her beautiful lips, which were so beautiful that she had seen no blood at this time. She was wrapped in bedding with dragons and phoenixes.
Zhao Dongting sat next to the bed, reached out to bring Zhang Ru's messy and sweaty hair into his ears, and asked softly: "Ru'er, how are you?"
Zhang Ru's beautiful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth and she shook her head gently.
She was overjoyed that Zhao Dongting was able to come back.
Zhao Dongting came over and asked her how she was just inside. Such care made her feel that the pain she just endured was worth it.
Zhao Dongting wiped Zhang Ru's fine sweat on her forehead and chuckled: "You're so bitter."
Zhang Ru still shook her head with a smile.
The close-fitting maid Liu'er walked to the bed with the little guy and placed it next to her.
Her smile suddenly became softer and had a strong maternal brilliance. At this moment, although Zhang Ru's face was pale, she still looked extremely beautiful.
Concubine Yang Shu and Ying Er also walked into the house.
When she arrived at the bedside, Yang Shufei's eyes immediately froze on the little guy, and she couldn't stop smiling, "I'm good grandson, good grandson..."
Ying Er looked at her with a smile.
After a while, Concubine Yang looked at Zhang Ru and said, "Concubine Jing, thank you for your hard work. You gave birth to Longzi, which will be of great significance to our Zhao family."
This time Zhang Ru smiled slightly and nodded.
Concubine Yang Shu picked up the little guy and loved this little guy who had just been born and had cleansed with warm water.
It took a while before she put the little guy back to Zhang Ru, gave Zhao Dongting a gentle wink, and walked out.
Zhao Dongting smiled at Zhang Ru and followed her out of the house.
"Congratulations to the Queen Mother and the Emperor!"
Everyone outside the house knelt down and expressed their congratulations to the two.
Zhao Dongting waved his hand and ordered Eunuch Liu to reward those who were serving in the yard and let them go down.
Concubine Yang Shu took Zhao Dongting to the tree in the courtyard and asked softly: "Yes, do you plan to make the eldest prince the crown prince?"
In this era, there were some prejudices to establishing a eldest child but not a child. At the same time, there were examples of the birth of the empress of the Eastern Palace, but not the birth of the other concubines.
Concubine Yang knew that Zhao Dongting always loved the woman most deeply in her heart, so she asked this question.
Zhao Dongting did not hesitate, shook his head gently and said, "No."
"What king is that?"
Concubine Yang was not surprised by Zhao Dongting's reply, and then asked again.
Zhao Dongting couldn't help laughing, "Mom, the prince has to be given a name and a title for a hundred days. Isn't it a bit too early to talk about this?"
Concubine Yang Shu said a little dissatisfied: "This is the eldest prince, of course you have to prepare early."
Zhao Dongting scratched his head, "The child still wants to discuss with Concubine Jing."
"Why should I discuss this with Concubine Jing?" Concubine Yang was surprised this time.
In this era, although Zhang Ru was her biological mother, she was completely ineligible to give the name to the born prince.
Zhao Dongting said: "After all, the child was born. Mother, please let the child make an idea about this!"
Concubine Yang was a little silent and finally nodded, "Okay then!"
Since she handed over all the power to Zhao Dongting, Zhao Dongting managed the entire court in an orderly manner, and she has gradually become accustomed to letting Zhao Dongting make his own ideas for everything.
Zhao Dongting returned to Zhang Ru's room.
On this day, he was always by Zhang Ru, not even taking a shower.
Concubine Yang Shu rewarded "baozi" to a few ministers in the court on his behalf.
"Bunzi" is actually the red envelope that the emperor gave to the ministers after giving birth to the dragon son. There are gold and silver, rhinoceros horns, jade and other objects.
And being able to receive such rewards is undoubtedly a privilege for the ministers.
Of course, Zhang Ru received more rewards.
But because the frontier wars are still continuing, Yang Shufei grasped the specifications of these rewards very well, and did not give them too precious things.
At night, Zhao Dongting finally discussed with Zhang Ru what name to give the child.
Zhao Dongting finally dared to pick up the child. After holding it, he was reluctant to let go. He hugged it in his arms and kept shaking it gently.
Zhang Ru looked at this scene and smiled non-stop.
Zhao Dongting asked her what the child should be named.
Zhang Ru's eyes drooped slightly, and her smile was even more intense.
Zhao Dongting instantly understood what she meant. She was asking him to make an idea.
He said: "Or, take my surname, your name, and your name, Zhao Ru, what about it? Ruyi Ru, this meaning is also good."
Zhang Ru's eyes showed a slight thoughtful look, and then she nodded slightly.
Zhao Dongting said again: "The word "Jimin" is called Jimin."
Zhang Ru nodded again.
Zhao Dongting looked down at the pink child in his arms.
The child was also staring at him with his round eyes. This is the purest thing in the world.
Zhao Dongting's mind seemed to be suddenly touched by something in an instant.
He said again: "Wait for him a hundred days, then you will be appointed as King of Ji! I hope he will be smooth and everything will be fine in his life."
Zhang Ru was slightly stunned, then nodded slightly.
She could naturally hear that Zhao Dongting did not intend to confer Zhao Ru as the crown prince.
But she didn't want these things.
As Zhao Dongting said, as long as Zhao Ru can be smooth in her life, it will be enough.
She was not an ambitious woman, and she never thought of asking Zhao Dongting to make her child the prince.
Zhang Ru, who is kind and kind, understands very well that if you fight for some things, there will be a gap in the relationship between her and Zhao Dongting.
The next day, Zhao Dongting led all the officials from the court to visit the Taimiao to pray for the world, ancestors, and the country.
The Song Dynasty welcomed its first prince.
Celebrate together in the whole world.
The city of Changsha is as lively as the New Year, and the sound of fireworks and firecrackers is endless.
On this day, after Zhao Dongting led all the officials back to the palace, he left the palace and took Hong Wutian, Le Wuqian, Mrs. Xu and others to the south.
The five-year agreement with the Valley Lord is coming.
In addition to Le Wuchen and others, hundreds of Feilong Army soldiers were also following him.
