A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles

But now...

"This... we need to ask the Divine Physician Ji to come in and take a look, we think... it seems like the child is trying to come out on its own, which is why the madam is in such pain!"

The midwives’ words left Ji Youyuan stunned.

"Do you really mean it?"

The midwives did not dare to affirm definitively.

Quickly, they said, "We dare not be certain, so we need the Divine Physician Ji to come and take a look!"

Ji Youyuan loudly shouted, "Old Second, get in here at once!"

Ji Youran, hearing his elder brother’s voice, came in and began to argue with him.

"Elder Brother, this is not the proper attitude when asking someone for help!"

Hearing this, Ji Youyuan shot a sharp glare at him!

Ji Youran felt a chill down his spine and quickly changed his tone.

"You are my dearest brother, your attitude is just perfect, really perfect."

"Quick, take a look at your sister-in-law’s situation and see if it’s really like they say, that the child is indeed pushing its way out?"

Ji Youyuan was wiping Wang Dongxue’s sweat with a cloth, stroke by stroke.

One hand was tightly holding hers, giving her his warmth.

"Let me take a look!"

Ji Youran immediately went to check Wang Dongxue’s pulse, then touched her belly and examined it, saying, "This issue calls for Suisui, this little one really is pushing its way out. If it suddenly comes out, it would be fine, but if Sister-in-law becomes exhausted from the pain and can’t give birth, then it’s troublesome."

Ji Youran’s words caused Ji Youyuan to become anxious.

"The damned brat, causing such trouble for his mother even before birth, wait till he’s born, I’ll deal with him!"

Ji Youyuan was in a hurry, cursing his unborn son while ordering someone to look for Suisui!

Just as he finished saying that, Suisui rushed in.

"I’m here, Uncle! Why is Auntie in so much pain?"

Little Suisui saw Wang Dongxue’s face twisted in pain, and couldn’t help but frown.

Ji Youran quickly explained.

"Your dear little brother is trying to come out by himself! If your aunt becomes exhausted from the pain, it would be troublesome."

Little Suisui understood immediately.

She quickly reached out to Wang Dongxue’s belly to calm her little brother.

Last night she used words of power.

So that by morning, the little one had to be born according to her rules.

"Brother, be good! There’s no rush. Wait until Auntie has the strength, then she will push you out!

Brother, don’t come out on your own, okay!"

As soon as little Suisui said this, Wang Dongxue’s pain indeed eased, but one of the midwives remarked.

"If this movement continues for a while longer, the child might just come out. I saw the head!"

The midwife’s words brought no response from another midwife.

She couldn’t help but elbow the other midwife, saying, "Don’t you think so? Can you see the little fellow’s head already?"

The midwife didn’t answer but muttered, "Strange, just now I seemed to see a purple light flash in the Crown Princess’s eyes!"

"Huh! What did you say?"

The midwives’ conversation fell into Ji Youyuan’s ears.

Ji Youyuan immediately understood what was going on, so he decided that once the child was born, everyone here needed to keep their mouths shut!

Under the protection of the big shot, Xiaosuisui, Wang Dongxue’s two children were safely born.

It wasn’t until Wang Dongxue was confirmed to be fine that Ji Youran finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji Youyuan, holding his little son, felt awkward and clumsy.

Ji Youran teased him.

"Yesterday you fought with Mother over a daughter, and today you don’t know how to hold your son?"

Hearing this, Ji Youyuan glared at him fiercely.

"There’s no ’can’t’ in a man’s vocabulary. You say you are capable, yet why don’t you have children?"

Ji Youran: "..." This brotherhood is impossible.

The Emperor didn’t hold morning court today; he was still at the Ji Family.

Yes, last night, Dongyue’s assassins sneaked into the Ji Family trying to assassinate his future Empress. Now he’s here to protect her!

Xie Pan’Er thought this man was shameless, as she was clearly unharmed last night, but he came, smeared some assassin blood on himself, and claimed he was injured.

Then he clung and refused to leave.

This morning, he bestowed the name Ji Wenyao upon Ji Youyuan’s son, hoping this little fellow, who tried to crawl out of his mother’s belly, would become the future Champion Scholar, like his Uncle Eight!

The Ji Family was distressed thinking about the name, recalling the actions of the little fellow still in his mother’s womb.

Especially Ji Youyuan: His own son needs to stay away from the Imperial Court. Who wants him to become a Champion Scholar? Hoping anyone could be like Uncle Eight, that quiet but cunning fellow?

Though he thought this, he didn’t break the Emperor’s face and thankfully accepted the honor.

What followed were the Emperor’s antics.

His future Empress wasn’t safe at the Ji Family; she was targeted by assassins from Dongyue and Beiyuan. He needed to take his future Empress back to the Palace!

The Old Madam of the Ji Family neither agreed nor disagreed!

As Xie Pan’Er’s godmother, she naturally hoped Xie Pan’Er would joyfully marry out from home.

However, Madam Xie was anxious. Her daughter hadn’t married yet and was to move into her husband’s home, which was inappropriate, even if the other party was the Emperor. It was already breaking the rules to meet before the wedding, so living in the Imperial Palace was out of the question. Hence, she pulled Xie Pan’Er away in front of the Emperor.

Seeing Madam Xie’s stance, the Emperor realized his future mother-in-law disagreed.

Indeed, marrying a wife is not just about the wife’s consent. Even if he is the Emperor, he still needs to pay attention to his mother-in-law’s mood.

Mother-in-law: Who knows what it’s like to raise a daughter? Only those who marry off a daughter understand!

Xie Pan’Er, after leaving the Ji Family’s Flower Hall with Madam Xie, didn’t come back.

Growing anxious, the Emperor couldn’t stay idle and went to find Xie Pan’Er himself, only to discover she hadn’t gone anywhere and was waiting for him in the room!

Entering, the Emperor said, "Why are you unwilling to return to the palace with me?

There’s still some time before our wedding. How will I manage not seeing you every day?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Pan’Er smiled.

Seeing her smile, the Emperor asked.

"Why are you laughing? Am I not speaking the truth, or do you find it humorous?"

Realizing he was getting upset, Xie Pan’Er quickly smoothed the situation.

"Things are not as you say, insisting otherwise would make it obvious what you intend to do! I also wish to return to the palace with you, to live in the palace and see you every day, but we are soon to be wed, and I have many matters to attend to, living in the palace would be inconvenient!"

Emperor grumpily, "What’s inconvenient for you?

Isn’t it just about trying on dresses, selecting jewelry, learning etiquette?

These are all handled by the Palace Bureau, wouldn’t it be more convenient for you to stay in the palace?"

Xie Pan’Er responded, "What you’re talking about is convenient for the people of the Palace Bureau, not for me, right?"

Actually, what Xie Pan’Er wanted to point out was the convenience for him!

The twenty-five-year-old emperor who never had such pleasure, always thinking of knocking her down!

"What’s so inconvenient?

Since you don’t have much to do outside, why not stay in the palace and keep me company when there’s nothing going on?"

Xie Pan’Er wanted to chuckle!

Everything her mother said turned out to be true!

She directly brought out a thick stack of account books.

"These are part of the dowry from the Ji Mansion and my parents, there are many things I don’t know about, and I need to learn how to manage them, to become familiar with them, there are several manors, workshops, and shops I haven’t visited yet. The managers of these shops and stewards of the manors come every few days to report, I can’t possibly let them come to the palace to speak with me, right?"

Emperor: "..." Why does he feel that his future wife is quite wealthy?
