Li Shui hadn't finished taking a bath, but Ying Zheng's train had already arrived.
After all, the train is faster than riding a horse. Although Li Shui and Li Xin set off an hour earlier, they were still quickly caught up.
After Ying Zheng got off the train, he directly transferred to a carriage and arrived at Shangjun Courtyard.
Because he came by train, the train provided all the basic necessities, including food, clothing, housing, transportation, bathing and rest, so Ying Zheng didn't feel like he was tired of all the work.
After he arrived at Shangjun Courtyard, he looked at the people around him, and then frowned: "Where is Huaiguzi?"
Wang Wan said: "I'm going to take a bath."
Ying Zheng: "..."
Isn't this guy too unreliable?
He said to a craftsman next to him: "Go and call Huai Guzi."
The craftsman responded and left in a hurry.
After a while, the craftsman came back and said with a troubled face: "The banished immortal... fell asleep."
Ying Zheng: "..."
Finally, Li Shui was forcibly awakened and called to Ying Zheng.
Li Shui rubbed his eyes and asked confusedly: "Give a baby?"
Ying Zheng wanted to give him a slap in the face to wake him up, but as an emperor, it was inappropriate to hit people in public.
So he said with a cold face: "Not yet."
Li Shui snorted: "It turns out not yet."
The Wen Po next to her sighed and said in a coquettish way: "Exiled Immortal, I didn't want to say it originally, and I didn't deserve to say it, but seeing the princess suffering, I had to say it."
Li Shui: "Oh?"
Wenpo said: "The princess is facing a big obstacle. Shouldn't the banished immortal be waiting outside uneasily at this time? Why did she go to take a bath and sleep instead?"
Li Shui: "Because I know that Your Majesty is coming, of course I have to take a shower and change clothes, and be full of energy to see Your Majesty. Could it be that my whole body is smelly of sweat and I am talking to Your Majesty in a daze?"
"Is His Majesty more important, or is your wife more important? Where do you put His Majesty? I think you have disrespect for His Majesty. Do you want to rebel?"
The courtiers were all confused: "Is it okay to say this?"
Wen Po cried directly, and knelt down on the ground with a pale face, and said to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... I am already at this age, I am just a Wen Po. Why are you rebelling?"
Ying Zheng said helplessly: "I am just joking with you."
Po Wen: "..."
Do you ever joke about this kind of thing? The people in Shangjun Courtyard were playing too wildly.
Li Shui coughed dryly and said to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, I thought... you all can go wait outside. There are many houses in Shangjun's villa, so you can find a quiet place to drink tea and eat wine. Let’s chat and relieve our boredom.”
"There's no need for everyone to gather here, as long as I'm here."
Ying Zheng thought for a while and felt that this was reasonable, so he said to the ministers: "Let's all go outside."
The ministers agreed and left one after another.
In fact, they didn't want to come here.
Wang Wan came to help Wen Po suppress Xiangli Zhu.
Ying Zheng came because he was nervous about Wei Yang's situation. The ministers came... That's because His Majesty is here and they have to come.
When everyone was about to leave, Wang Wan said to Ying Zheng with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty, is Marquis Toyota responsible for delivering babies?"
Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Shui: "Can Xiangli Zhu be done well?"
Li Shui nodded: "Xiangli Zhu is my descendant. If she can't do it, no one in the world should be able to do it."
Ying Zheng nodded.
He believed in Li Shui very much.
At this time, Li Xin, who had arrived late, happened to hear Li Shui's words.
He couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Huai is really amazing. He knows everything about life. Is this the ability of an immortal?"
Li Shui: "..."
Ying Zheng: "..."
After all the hard talk, Ying Zheng and the ministers were finally persuaded to leave.
When only Li Shui was left here, he immediately ordered the craftsman: "Quick, go and bring me the rocking chair."
A moment later the rocking chair arrived.
Li Shui sat on the chair and quickly fell asleep...
After all, I was so tired after jolting on the horse for several hours. I was so tired that even my iron-clad body couldn't bear it.
As a result, Li Shui fell into a deep sleep, so deep that he didn't hear anything going on around him...
…………
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty. The princess is born, mother and child are safe." The young eunuch came to announce the good news with a smile.
Ying Zheng's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but smile.
At this time, Wang Wan said: "Why don't you see the banished immortal coming to announce the good news?"
Chunyu Yue said: "I must be happy to have a son."
Wang Wan said: "But Your Majesty is here, even if you are happy to banish the immortal, you can't..."
At this time, the young eunuch coughed dryly and said softly: "When the servant came, the banished immortal was... sleeping."
Ying Zheng: "..."
Sleeping again?
Before he finished speaking, a burst of snoring suddenly came from the surroundings.
Everyone turned around and saw that it was Li Xin, leaning on the chair and sleeping soundly.
Ying Zheng was a little helpless: "These two people really have the same chemistry."
…………
Weiyang lay on the bed, looking at the baby next to her, and then at Xiangli Zhu who looked tired.
She smiled at Xiang Lizhu and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Xianglizhu waved his hand boldly: "Princess, you're welcome, we are all a family, so why bother."
Weiyang smiled and asked: "Where is the banished immortal?"
Xiangli Zhu glanced outside the door and snorted coldly: "I'm sleeping."
Then she said to Weiyang: "Princess, it's too shameful to banish an immortal. After coming back, I started to sleep. I couldn't see him worrying at all."
Wei Yang sighed and said with emotion: "I was confused just now and heard someone say that the banished immortal rode a fast horse and ran wildly for several hours in order to come back as soon as possible."
"It's really difficult for him. Now that he is extremely tired, it is understandable that he fell asleep."
She said to the little maid beside her: "Tell the people around you not to make any noise, so as not to wake him up, and let him have a good rest."
The little maid responded.
Xianglizhu: "..."
She looked at Weiyang and couldn't help but shook her head, thinking: Oh, another innocent girl who was deceived by Huaiguzi.
Um? Why is there the word "you"?
Under Wei Young's instructions, no one dared to disturb Li Shui. The considerate craftsman even held up an umbrella for him to block the sun.
He also stretched out a cloth tent beside him to block the wind and sand.
Li Shui lay on the rocking chair, feeling like he had entered a comfortable room, so... he fell into a deeper sleep.
The maid held the baby and went to see Ying Zheng.
At this time, the ministers had already left wisely. And the poppy has arrived.
Ying Zheng and Yu Meiren looked at the baby, the more they looked at it, the more they fell in love with it.
Ying Zheng said: "Yes, just like me."
Meiren Yu said: "There is quite a bit of Wei Young in her eyebrows."
Fu Yao said: "Yes, like me."
Wu Jiao glanced at the side and whispered: "The young master and the banished immortal are also very similar."
Everyone was enjoying themselves.
Li Shui didn't wake up until dinner time.
He walked out of the curtain, grabbed a craftsman in a daze, and asked, "Has the child been born?"
The craftsman said: "Congratulations to the banished immortal, you have been born a son."
Li Shui nodded and walked towards Weiyang's room.
The craftsman looked at Li Shui's back and sighed in his heart: "The banished immortal is indeed an immortal. He is so calm and admirable."
Li Shui walked to the room and looked at Wei Young with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, madam."
Wei Yang also looked at Li Shui with a smile: "Aren't you working hard too? I heard that you rode a fast horse and traveled hundreds of miles."
Li Shui touched his already swollen buttocks and said, "I am... okay."
Wei Yang smiled and pointed to the swaddling clothes beside the pillow: "Look at your son."
Li Shui took one look and immediately grinned.
This is too ugly.
The skin on his face was wrinkled together, like a hairless monkey.
Weiyang rolled her eyes: "What? Dislike it?"
Li Shui said with a grimace: "I'm worried about how he will see people in the future."
Weiyang covered her mouth and smiled: "Newborn children are like this, and they will be fine when they open up in a few days."
Li Shui breathed a sigh of relief.
Weiyang looked at the baby's nose and eyes and said, "Look, how much does he look like you?"
Li Shui: "???"
How can this be seen?
While the two were chatting, Wu Jiao said outside the door: "Exiled Immortal, someone has come from the palace, and it seems he has brought His Majesty's decree."
Li Shui said oh and walked out.
Sure enough, there was a young eunuch from the palace waiting outside.
When the young eunuch saw Li Shui, he smiled slightly and said, "Sir, your majesty has given the young master a name. He will be called Wuji. It means no taboos and no inhibitions."
Li Shui thought to himself: Being unbridled? Your Majesty...understands me.
The young eunuch added: "Your Majesty originally wanted to reward me with something, but I thought that Shang Jun's courtyard is very rich and there are countless rare treasures in the world. So I gave up this idea."
Li Shui: "..."
He coughed dryly and said: "Please report back to your majesty. No matter how many things there are in Shangjun's courtyard, they are just ordinary things. And your majesty's reward is a great honor. I, please reward me."
The young eunuch was stunned and thought to himself: Are you asking for something from His Majesty? The behavior of banishing immortals is really unique.
He smiled bitterly and said: "Exiled Immortal, although your Majesty does not have the gold and silver treasures from last time, your servant has brought something else."
Then, the little eunuch waved his hand.
The two people behind brought over a large plate covered with a red cloth.
Li Shui thought to himself: Could it be a piece of jade? That's not worth much.
When he uncovered the red cloth, there was a piece of yellow material inside, only the size of a button.
Li Shui coughed dryly: "Is this a piece of gold?"
The young eunuch smiled and said, "Please banish the immortal and take a closer look."
Li Shui got closer and found that the piece of gold had very small characters carved on it.
Li Shui ordered someone to get a magnifying glass, looked at it carefully, and suddenly let out a sigh.
The words "avoid death" are written on the front of this piece of gold.
On the back, there is a very familiar string of preconditions written on it.
This... this is actually a small gold medal to avoid death.
The young eunuch said with a smile: "Your Majesty said that this gold medal is small and light, so it is suitable for the young master to wear."
Li Shui cupped his hand and said with a smile, "Thank you very much."
…………
"Alas, our Great Qin is about to give birth to another demon king." Many courtiers sighed at home.
Huai Guzi's son was actually named Huai Wuji, a name given by His Majesty himself. And the interpretation of the name is unbridled.
Isn't this too obvious?
That's all. He actually gave him a gold medal to avoid death. This was obviously because he was worried that he would not be able to become a little Huai Guzi.
However, the courtiers only dared to sigh at home.
There is no way to bring this kind of thing up in court.
After all, the mouth of the Exalted Immortal...
Maybe if we are not careful, everyone will turn into rebels again.
Li Shui ignored what the courtiers thought, and he didn't care much about what the courtiers thought. He is now focused on spending time with his wife and children at home.
Well, Exiled Immortal... is such a good family man.
Not long after, Li Shui had a conflict with the old maid sent by the palace to take care of Wei Young.
This palace maid has taken care of pregnant women for nobles for generations, so she is extremely experienced, especially in confinement, and has outstanding ideas.
The old palace maid set a few rules and said: "First, you must stay in bed for a long time and cannot get up and walk around."
"Secondly, doors and windows must be closed securely and cannot be opened at will to let in the wind."
"Thirdly, you are not allowed to wash your hair, bathe or brush your teeth."
"Fourth, you must wear thick clothes and a thick quilt."
"Fifth, you cannot drink cold water or eat cold fruits."
"Sixth..."
There are many such taboos, which makes Weiyang miserable. Just being unable to take a bath is a bit unbearable.
Before Li Shui could say anything, Weiyang found Xiangli Zhu and asked in great pain: "Can't you even take a bath?"
Xiangli Zhugan coughed: "We studied it and it seems to be possible."
The old palace maid disagreed: "Absolutely not. If you are not careful, it will lead to the root cause of the disease."
Xianglizhu said: "We once found 30 mothers who had just given birth. We divided them into several groups and conducted controlled experiments."
"Finally, it was found that the root cause of the disease was not caused by the mothers who took a bath and washed their hair. The root cause of the disease among the people was that the house had air leakage from all sides, and it was easy to catch cold when taking a bath."
"As long as you pay attention to this and keep the house warm, it will be fine."
"It makes sense for a small family to have poor food and poor housing conditions. But in Shangjun Courtyard, it is not necessary."
The old palace maid shook her head: "It is true that the root cause of the disease has not been found now, but when you get older, you will know the pain."
"I saw a person whose legs were so painful that he couldn't walk when he got older just because he didn't have a good confinement period after giving birth."
Xianglizhu frowned and said: "I didn't have confinement when I was twenty, and I didn't get sick until I was sixty or seventy? There was an interval of more than forty years? Isn't this... a bit too long?"
The old palace maid spoke plausibly: "I didn't sit properly during the confinement period, leaving hidden dangers. When I get older, my physical strength declines, which will be revealed."
Xianglizhu said: "Then how can you prove that she didn't catch a cold or fall down when she got old? How could she be so hasty and just push it to confinement?"
The old palace maid was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Anyway, it is better to believe that this kind of thing exists than to believe that it does not exist. If you work hard for a month, you will get lifelong benefits, why not do it?"
Xianglizhu: "..."
She was a little helpless: some things really cannot be refuted scientifically.
At this time, the old palace maid ordered another earthen jar to be brought over. From a distance, Xiangli Zhu could smell a foul smell.
"What is this?" Xianglizhu asked.
The old palace maid said: "This is a folk remedy passed down from generation to generation. Children's urine can nourish the body after drinking it."
Xianglizhu: "..."
