Jade Without Fragrance

   Chapter 324 Production

  The old lady stepped forward and helped Cheng Zhiyuan up: "Zhiyuan, nothing else matters, you must come back safely."

   "Don't worry, you will definitely, the child still wants to drink Shu'er's wedding wine." Cheng Zhiyuan looked at his son who was standing upright, "Shu'er, take good care of your grandmother and aunt for your father."

   After getting along for this period of time, Cheng Shu's estrangement from his father has disappeared, and his expression is solemn and assured.

  Cheng Zhiyuan patted Cheng Shu on the shoulder: "Stinky boy, what are you doing with such bitterness and hatred, your father went to make money, not digging coal, wait for your father to earn more betrothal gifts for you to come back so that you can marry a daughter-in-law."

  Cheng Shu grinned: "I don't need so many betrothal gifts."

  Cheng Zhiyuan patted it with a palm: "Silly boy."

  If it wasn't for the elders to call the shots, the stupid son would probably be a bachelor.

   Cheng Zhiyuan looked at Han Baocheng and Lin Hao again.

  Lin Chan is now a month old, so she is not allowed to come.

   "Baocheng, Shizi, you are all good children, I won't say more, take good care of the family."

   The two said in unison, "Don't worry, we have us at home."

  Cheng Zhiyuan nodded, and then looked at Lin.

  If it was before, Mrs. Lin wouldn't think too much, but now the righteous brother put her in the last narration, and it tasted a little bit.

   "Wanqing, your adoptive mother has worked hard for you to take care of her."

  Lin has always laughed and laughed, but at this moment, he felt a little difficult to laugh: "I should take care of my mother, but it's my brother, you must take care of yourself when crossing the ocean."

   "I will." Cheng Zhiyuan looked at her deeply, and still kept a thousand words in his heart, and finally said, "Then I'm leaving."

  Everyone stood on the shore, watching Cheng Zhiyuan board the boat.

   It was a majestic four-story ship, as small as a human being.

   And compared to the vast rivers and the boundless sea, the ship seems small again.

   The old lady sighed in her heart when she looked at the stunned girl. She didn't know whether to tell her, or mutter to herself: "The power of the sky is unpredictable, the road is long, and I don't know when I will come back."

   Lin's heart was shocked, his actions were one step faster than his thoughts, and he chased and shouted: "Big Brother!"

  Cheng Zhiyuan stopped when he boarded the ship, turned around and strode towards Lin.

   "Wan Qing, is there anything else?"

   Lin pulled down the safety button he was wearing and patted it in his hand: "You are wearing this to keep your safety."

  The warm jade buckle started with the other party's body temperature. Cheng Zhiyuan looked at Lin in astonishment: "This is for me?"

   He hasn't been in the capital for too long, so I don't know if the meaning has changed. When he was young, the gift of safety buttons was often between lovers.

   "Of course it's for you, let's go, go early and come back early." Lin was not a shy person. Although he was overwhelmed and gave Cheng Zhiyuan his safety, he didn't regret it when he woke up, and he didn't make excuses to hide it.

   If you give it, you can give it, as long as he can come back safely.

   "Wan Qing, do you know what this means?" Cheng Zhiyuan squeezed the jade buckle tightly, so nervous that he forgot to breathe.

   Lin's face became hot, and he glared at him: "I'm such an adult, can I not know? Don't be so rude, hurry up and leave."

   The corners of Cheng Zhiyuan's mouth became wider and wider, and his eyes were astonishingly bright: "Alright, alright, I'll go now!"

   He turned around, took a step, and turned around again. His rationality stubbornly prevented him from hugging the person in front of him who had been quietly in love with him for half his life. He suppressed the surging joy and left a sentence: "Wait for me to come back!"

The    fleet set sail and gradually disappeared from the sight of those who saw it off.

  Lin Hao looked at his grandmother who was smiling from ear to ear, and then looked at his mother who was a little uncomfortable, and gave birth to a guess: She seems to have a father?

  As Cheng Zhi moved away, the General’s Mansion returned to calm, and the interests of all parties involved in maritime trade were reshuffled and divided into the right track. The attention of civil and military officials was also withdrawn from this and turned to the palace.

   Count the time, it's almost time for Mrs Wu to give birth.

  Wu Guiren's birth is male or female, which affects the hearts of countless people.

   It was a bit cloudy these days, and Wu Guiren, who was walking in the garden with the help of the maid, was worried that it would rain suddenly and walked back slowly.

  There is nothing more important than the child in her belly, she can't be careful.

   A group of people surrounded Wu Guiren as soon as he returned to the bedroom, when Wu Guiren had a seizure.

  Wen Po had been prepared for a long time, there were six in total, and several imperial physicians who were good at each other were on standby at any time two months ago.

   Emperor Tai'an, who was going to court, heard the whispering report from the chamberlain, and immediately ended the court meeting and hurried to Wu Guiren's residence, leaving the ministers looking at each other and guessing together.

   "This is the first time. The emperor's court left before it was over."

   "It seems that the empress has made a move."

   "It's time?"

  The courtiers dispersed, but their minds remained in the palace.

   Wu Guiren has not been promoted for the time being, but he has already moved into Hua'an Palace, which is very close to Qianqing Palace. Everyone knows that when Wu Guiren gives birth to a dragon child, he will become the master of Hua'an Palace.

   At this time, the Hua'an Palace was busy but not chaotic, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

   Emperor Tai'an stood with his hands behind his back in such an atmosphere, his eyes fixed on the door.

   He hadn't felt this kind of tension for a long time. The child who was about to be born in the room was too important to him.

   Concubine Zhuang also came, standing silently beside Emperor Tai'an, and didn't make a sound.

   It may be because she has no children, she very much hopes that Wu Guiren can give birth smoothly.

  The Great Zhou Royal Family needs a prince too much.

   In the delivery room, Guiren Wu kept shouting. She is a first-time mother, and even with the patient guidance of the most experienced woman, it is still not smooth.

  It was getting dark. Under Concubine Zhuang's persuasion, Emperor Tai'an went to rest in the main hall of Hua'an Palace. Every quarter of an hour, a servant came in to report the situation in the delivery room.

   "Why haven't you given birth yet!" Emperor Tai'an's face was heavy and his heart was full of anxiety.

   Concubine Zhuang warmly advised: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, childbirth is always like this, not so fast."

   "Really?" Tai'an Di Baba asked.

   Seeing that the emperor who was in his 50s rarely showed the uneasiness, Concubine Zhuang sighed and comforted: "It was the same when the concubine gave birth."

   "That's good, that's good..." Tai'an Emperor murmured.

   It was a cool night in early winter, and Emperor Tai'an had no plans to rest. He waited until midnight when he suddenly heard an exclamation.

   This is very rare in the strict imperial palace.

   Emperor Tai'an's heart skipped a beat, he strode out, and he met the inner attendant who was eager to report.

"What's wrong?"

   The inner servant kneeled down, tremblingly, said: "Back, back to the emperor..."

   Emperor Tai'an didn't care to listen and walked quickly outside the delivery room.

  The delivery room was silent, there was neither the cry of a woman nor the cry of a baby. As Emperor Tai'an arrived, he knelt down in darkness.

   "How is your noble lady Wu?"

   The person kneeling beside him lowered his head and replied, "The niangniang has passed out."

   "Then...the child?" Emperor Tai'an never felt that it takes courage to ask a sentence.

  The door opened, and Granny Wen came out with a sackcloth and knelt down, her face as pale as snow.
