Chapter 973 Everyone is Happy 4

Kunning Palace.

"My God! It's almost there! It's almost there! Try harder!"

Inside the delivery room, four midwives were looking at the baby whose half body had already come out. Everyone had a happy look on their faces. The dragon seeds in their hands were like precious treasures. They didn't even dare to blink, for fear that something might go wrong at this critical moment.

And it was followed by a final cry of pain.

"Waaaaaaaah."

The baby who came into the world uttered his first cry, which was the sound of his ignorant cry.

But unlike the crying babies, the midwives were already smiling happily. The first midwife who took the baby in her hands saw the baby's lower body at a glance, and it was with a penis.

Immediately afterwards, the four congratulated in unison:

"Congratulations, empress!"

"It's a prince!"

Zhang Zisheng, who was originally very pale, suddenly blushed and cried out weakly:

"Quick...quick, hold me here, my child."

One midwife was cutting the umbilical cord, one had already run out to convey the good news, one was noting down the time of the baby's birth, and the remaining one was putting the crying baby into Zhang Zisheng's arms.

Looking at the baby in her arms, Zhang Zisheng burst into tears of joy. She raised her head with all her strength, and pressed her cheek against her son's tender and soft face, sobbing:

"My child, my child..."

At this moment, the curtain was suddenly lifted, and it was Qin Ze who had just arrived and walked into the room. He was sweating profusely after running all the way here. When he saw Zhang Zisheng holding the child, he was overjoyed. However, his legs went weak in his joy, and fortunately a midwife supported him in time.

Zhang Zisheng also saw his sudden intrusion, which made her cry immediately, but she kept a smile on her face:

"Your Majesty, when did you come back, your concubine..."

Qin Ze supported the midwife and walked forward with his feet floating. He opened his mouth to speak, but was shaking violently. It was not until he lay prone in front of the bed that he squeezed out a sound from his throat:

"Mother and child...are safe...well...well." Tears of joy flowed down his cheeks. He stretched out his hands and held the two, one big and one small, in his arms.

The midwife at the side tactfully stepped back a few steps, leaving time and space for the family of three.

"Your Majesty, you're back just in time." Zhang Zisheng looked at Qin Ze, who was crying, with gentle eyes, and reached out to gently stroke his head.

The baby kept crying, but his crying was not as loud as Qin Ze's crying at this moment.

He could no longer control his body, and just like his newborn son, he cried completely instinctively.

Unlike the crying children, Zhang Zisheng, who had become a mother, had a smile on her face. She still stroked Qin Ze's head with one hand and gently stroked her son's skin with the other hand, constantly whispering:

"My child came into the world today, and you just happened to return to my side."

"Your Majesty, this is the happiest day for me."

She looked at Qin Ze with infinite tenderness. Qin Ze also raised his tearful face at this time. His eyes were crying but his mouth was smiling. Crying and laughing were intertwined, which made him unable to say a word. He just nodded with tears in his eyes.

After a while, Qin Ze finally spoke:

"I'm sorry, Zisheng, I've troubled you. I..."

Before he could finish his words, Zhang Zisheng reached out and covered his mouth: "Your Majesty, don't say such things. You have done nothing wrong to me."

"We all have things we need to do our best."

"When the child grows up, I hope he can be like you."

Hearing this, Qin Ze lowered his head and looked at his son. At this time, the child's crying had gradually subsided, and he was covering his eyes as if he was about to open them.

Qin Ze leaned over and whispered, "Son, you..."

Before he could finish his words, the child suddenly opened his eyes, then immediately closed them again. The crying that had been gradually weakening suddenly intensified at this moment:

"Waaaaaaah."

"Hahaha." Zhang Zisheng laughed happily. Qin Ze laughed dumbly, but he kept scratching his head and scolded with a smile:

"What's there to be afraid of when you meet your father?"

Amid the crying and laughing, Zhang Zisheng asked, "Your Majesty, have you been to your sister's place?"

After these words came out, Qin Ze restrained his smile, frowned, and said:

"I just came back. Yonghe Palace is nearby, so I went there first, but..."

Upon seeing Qin Ze's expression, the clever Zhang Zisheng's face changed, and he immediately said, "Go quickly!"

Qin Ze was stunned, and was about to speak when Zhang Zisheng interrupted him anxiously:

"What are you standing there for? Your son is safe. You should go check on your sister right away."

"How can you be so foolish at this time! Go quickly!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Qin Ze immediately turned around and left, but just as he walked to the door, he stopped, turned his head to look at Zhang Zisheng, and said:

"Zi Sheng, thank you..."

"Hurry up, hurry up, don't waste time!" Zhang Zisheng urged.

-

Kunning Palace is not far from Yonghe Palace, but the sedan chair is too slow and riding a horse is even more inconvenient. Since entering the imperial city, Qin Ze has been running back and forth. Even though he is physically strong, he is now exhausted and out of breath.

The drastic change of emotions made him feel exhausted all over. It seemed like this was the first time he had ever felt so tired in his life.

When he was rushing towards Yonghe Palace again, he ran into the nanny who came to announce the good news.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! The Imperial Concubine has given birth to a prince!"

The sudden good news almost made Qin Ze fall to the ground while running wildly. Fortunately, he had already received a sense of joy a moment ago. This time, he did not weaken his steps, but ran forward while shouting:

"How is the queen?"

The nanny's face changed and she trembled and dared not speak. Qin Ze's heart skipped a beat when he saw her face, and he did not dare to stop and ask in detail.

Finally, when he gritted his teeth and rushed into the Yonghe Palace, everyone he met was congratulating him, but everyone's expression was obviously restrained.

It was as if there was a sense of panic hidden beneath the joy.

This made Qin Ze's heart, which was already beating fast, beat even faster. After arriving outside the bedroom, he did not go in immediately, but stood at the door trembling all over, listening to the sounds inside.

“Waaaaaaa….”

The baby's cry was particularly loud, seemingly louder than that of his other son.

But this was not the sound he wanted to hear most right now.

Ten seconds, twenty seconds, thirty seconds, time passed by, Qin Ze's eyes were red again, he couldn't wait to hear the woman's voice that was sometimes wild and sometimes gentle.

Even on the day of her wedding, she still asked for a martial arts competition. She was really not a weak and vulnerable girl. It was because of this that she was able to wait for his return in this huge palace with such an identity.

One minute, two minutes, and still no sound appeared. Qin Ze walked forward tremblingly, his face had lost all color, leaving only the cold white of grief.

Just at this time.

"You little bastard, come out!" An angry shout suddenly rang out.

Qin Ze's legs went weak again upon hearing the voice, and he fell to the ground, falling into the bedroom in a very embarrassing manner.
