Liu Mingzhi was thinking about what name to give his youngest son. Liu Zhian and Liu Mingli also rushed over.
“Huh…huh…I’m exhausted, I would like to ask you how is the child doing now? Has the midwife arrived?”
“Brother, how is sister-in-law Wanyuan’s condition? There are no signs of dystocia, right?”
Mrs. Liu glared at the two confused men angrily, pinched Liu Zhi'an's arm, and flicked Liu Mingli's forehead with her finger.
“Can’t you two say something nice with your foul mouth?”
The two men took a few steps back with a frustrated expression, fearing that Mrs. Liu would reward them both with the two-finger meditation technique again.
"Where is Mrs. Xi? What are you doing? I am concerned about the safety of my daughter-in-law. Where did I go wrong?"
“Yes, mother, my father and my son are also worried about my sister-in-law’s safety, so what’s wrong with me?”
“Mother, it’s okay, the old man and Mingli don’t know the situation either, so don’t argue with them.”
"Old man, Mingli, Wanyan has successfully given birth to a son. I heard from my mother that the child was born without much torture. God is wise! He has blessed their mother and son to be safe."
Liu Zhi'an suddenly felt happy, stroking his beard and happily glanced at the Queen's boudoir with the door half open.
“It’s good to have a smooth delivery, I have another fat and white grandson!
Okay, great, great, this child was born earlier than later, and he was born on the first day of the Lunar New Year. He will definitely be a person with great fortune and profound blessings in the future!
It’s gratifying and congratulatory, it’s really gratifying and congratulatory.”
Liu Mingli also nodded hurriedly, echoing his old man's words.
“Double happiness has come to my eldest brother’s house during the Spring Festival, and my eldest brother is happy to have a son again. It’s a perfect double happiness. I would like to congratulate my eldest brother here.
Brother, have you thought about what you want to name your nephew?"
Liu Mingzhi glanced back at the Queen's boudoir where many women were chattering behind him: "Yesterday on New Year's Eve, I was discussing with Wanyan how many days it would take for the child to be born!
An once thought that it was a coincidence that he came into the world on the first day of the Lunar New Year, which could be regarded as an auspicious day for the New Year and would add a different kind of surprise to our family.
As for the name..."
Liu Mingzhi pondered for a moment with calm eyes: "I thought about it before you came. This child's little brother is from Bizhu, named Yunrui. It would be better for this child to have the word Rui like his little brother.
.
Liu Chengrui! Just call him Liu Chengrui!"
Liu Mingli suddenly clapped his hands together: "What a good name. It connects the past with the future. It's smart and wise. What a good name."
Mrs. Liu also smiled and nodded: "It is indeed a good name. My son is the number one Xie Yuanlang at that time. Whether these children are boys or girls, their names are profound and worth savoring."
Liu Zhi'an didn't say anything. He looked at Young Master Liu with narrowed eyes for a while, walked to Liu Mingzhi, stopped, and whispered softly into Young Master Liu's ear.
“Liu Chengrui, do you inherit the wisdom of your father? Or do you inherit the wisdom of Ruizong Li Zheng?
Mixed boys, family affairs and national affairs are the most difficult to handle, and the cuts are constantly being chaotic.
I hope you can think twice before one day making the Liu family make the same mistake as the Li family, where brothers are no longer brothers and brothers are no brothers.
Favoritism is the root of all disasters, remember, remember.”
Liu Mingzhi turned his head slightly, looked into Liu Zhi'an's old and meaningful eyes for a while and smiled lightly.
“Old man, are you thinking too much?
You are well aware of my young master's attitude towards his children. I will never deliberately favor Cheng Rui just because he spoke politely.
I am more afraid than you that my children will make the same mistake one day in the future, so this name is just a coincidence and has no special meaning at all.
After all, Yue'er's child's character is more suitable for inheriting that position than her little brother, who was just born and doesn't know what his temperament will be like when he grows up.
But the time I have been proclaimed emperor is neither long nor short. If I really had a preference, this girl Yue'er would have become the first female crown prince of the Great Dragon Dynasty long ago.
Rather, the position of prince is still vacant and the title has not yet been determined.
It is not that I am afraid that the important ministers in the court will obstruct me, or that the people in the world will speak out.
But now I am not sure who is more suitable to inherit this position.
Chengfeng, Chengzhi, and Chengqian are all good-natured brothers. Below are brothers Zhenghao, Zhengran, Zhengming, and Zhengwen.
Even if the three Chengfeng brothers are not suitable to inherit the great treasure, this boy will not be able to inherit the throne.
You should stop thinking so wildly."
Liu Zhi'an looked at Liu Mingzhi's clear and bright pupils, raised his head and sighed deeply.
“Which of these children will inherit your position in the future, I don’t care about, nor am I qualified to ask, let alone interfere.
But I hope that in the future, a hundred years from now, I will see my family and everything prosperous in heaven, instead of brothers turning against each other and the family being in unrest.
Think carefully! Think carefully!”
After Liu Zhi'an finished speaking, he raised his hand and patted Liu Mingzhi's shoulder, then silently left the Queen's courtyard behind his hands.
With Madam Liu’s half-step innate strength, the content of the conversation between the two men was naturally heard clearly by Madam Liu, who has a sharp ear and eyesight.
Watching her master slowly leaving, Mrs. Liu's excited expression of joy for her grandson was involuntarily tinged with sadness. She patted the back of her eldest son's hand. Mrs. Liu also sighed secretly and chased after Liu Zhi'an.
“In the Emperor’s Garden, there may be many things that we cannot control in the future.
Zhi'er, you must take care of your housework well.
No matter what, after a hundred years as my mother and your father, we must not let us die in peace."
“Mom, what nonsense are you talking about! You and the old man will definitely live a long life. We are only half a hundred years old now, so don’t keep saying these unlucky words.”
Mrs. Liu paused for a moment, looked back at Liu Mingzhi, who looked helpless, shook his head gently and said in a low voice: "Silly boy." She chased after Liu Zhi'an again in the direction he left.
Liu Mingzhi stared blankly at his mother's back disappearing from the field of vision. He subconsciously took off the tobacco bag at his waist, took out the fire stick and lit it. He frowned slightly and silently began to smoke.
Giving birth to a son is obviously a great joy. Why did the atmosphere suddenly become so heavy?
Family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs are all matters of the world, but family affairs are the most difficult to deal with. They are constantly being cut and managed, and the management is still chaotic, which makes the family members miserable.
Favoritism is the root of all disasters. Remember, remember.
The old man's two sentences kept lingering in Liu Mingzhi's mind. He knew clearly what they meant, but he always felt a little confused.
Liu Mingli looked at his eldest brother standing there and puffing on a pipe, and felt that the current atmosphere was too subtle.
Glancing in the direction where his father and mother left, Liu Mingli smiled and nodded at Young Master Liu.
“Brother, the maids will finish cleaning up the filth in the room soon. You must stay with Sister-in-law Wanyan for a while. As a brother-in-law, it’s not convenient for me to go in.
I already know that my sister-in-law, mother and son are safe, and my younger brother can’t do much to help anyway, so I’ll go back first.”
Liu Mingzhi nodded lightly: "Okay, you can go back and celebrate the New Year with your brothers and sisters first. When you are free, we two brothers will have a good drunken time with the old man."
“My little brother is waiting for the good news, so I will take my leave first.”
Liu Mingzhi saluted, and without waiting for his eldest brother's consent, he trotted out of the courtyard with his head down. He really couldn't stand the strange atmosphere that suddenly became strange in the courtyard.
