Chapter 188 Nightmare 1
Chapter 188 Nightmare 1
"He is my eldest son, Chief Steward Yao, please have everyone in the palace come and greet the new master."
Chu Musheng looked up at the rainbow in the sky again, and the rainbow was gradually dissipating.
Soon, thousands of people gathered in the main hall of the palace, and the secret guards in the palace also appeared one after another.
Everyone prostrated themselves on the ground.
"Greetings, Your Majesty, and greetings, Your Highness."
After they kowtowed three times.
Chu Musheng raised his hand to signal.
"Everyone, stand up! Today, the king is delighted to have a son, and everyone in the palace will receive a reward.
From today on, my son will be the future master of this palace.
You must serve with all your heart and soul, without any slacking off!"
Everyone responded in unison.
"Thank you, Your Highness! We will serve you loyally!"
Chu Musheng nodded slightly and looked at the young son in his arms with gentle eyes.
The little guy opened his eyes at this time and looked around curiously.
Chu Musheng curled his lips into a smile and touched the child's face with his fingers.
"My child should be raised under my personal care."
Then he looked at everyone.
"Sheng Wu, Sheng Er, you two accompany Nanny Wang to the palace to inform the Grand Empress Dowager that the princess has given birth to a baby boy, so that she can rest assured."
"Butler Yao, give the order to prepare a banquet. This prince wants the whole family to celebrate together!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Everyone took the order together.
Chu Musheng carried the child back to the delivery room and handed the child to Nanny Wang beside him.
Nanny Wang took the swaddled little prince with a loving smile on her face.
Only then did Dingdang and Anxiang dare to step forward to see the newborn little master.
Chu Musheng came to the delivery bed.
You can sleep soundly after seeing the permission.
Chu Musheng curled his lips into a smile, pulled back the quilt and got on the bed, holding Xu Keke in his arms and sleeping with her.
Xu Keke had a dream.
In the dream, she died of postpartum hemorrhage, and the prince killed all the servants who served her in anger.
She dreamed that she was reborn as a peasant girl, but it was extremely difficult for her to recognize Chu Musheng.
In the dream, she saw Chu Musheng holding a child passing by her and walking away.
She couldn't help but cry out.
"Chu Musheng, don't go."
"My beloved, don't be afraid. The king is here."
Chu Musheng gently stroked Xu Keke's face.
Xu Ke opened her eyes and saw Chu Musheng clearly beside her. He was so close that she could touch him.
"Wow, wow, I had a terrible dream. I dreamed that I was dead and could never return to your side."
Xu Keke hugged Chu Musheng's neck and refused to let go.
She once thought that she didn't care. As a soul of a new era, she could always let go of love more easily than the ancient people.
But if you lose a truly beautiful relationship once you have it, it will definitely be heartbreaking.
Xu Keke was very glad that it was just a dream and her prince was still by her side.
When Chu Musheng saw his beloved concubine crying, he felt heartbroken.
He held her in his arms and comforted her, then picked her up along with the quilt.
"Don't be afraid, my beloved concubine. I will carry you back to the palace and stay with you every night, okay?"
Xu Keke nodded in Chu Musheng's arms, tears still hanging in the corners of her eyes, but she felt much more at ease.
"Your Majesty, please keep your word."
She pouted her lips and stared at Chu Musheng with her big eyes without blinking.
Chu Musheng bent down and kissed her lips.
"Don't worry, my beloved! No matter how busy I am from now on, I will be with you every night."
Back in the bedroom, Chu Musheng gently placed Xu Ke on the bed and covered her with a blanket.
"My beloved, sleep well. I will not let nightmares disturb you again."
Chu Musheng kissed her on the forehead.
Xu Keke held Chu Musheng's hand, slowly closed her eyes, and fell asleep again with him by her side.
This time, she slept very soundly.
But soon, her child started crying.
The little prince also woke up from a nap in the cradle. When he woke up, he was hungry and started crying loudly with his mouth open.
Nanny Wang asked Dingdang and Anxiang to look after the child while she went to the princess's bedroom.
"Your Highness, the little prince must be hungry. I'm here to ask for your permission. We've hired a wet nurse, but do we need her to feed him?"
Chu Musheng looked at Xu Keke who was sleeping and got up quietly.
Following Nanny Wang to the outer room, she lowered her voice and said:
"Don't disturb the princess's rest. Let the nurse feed the child."
After a while, the newly hired wet nurse came to feed the child, while Nanny Wang, Dingdang, Anxiang and others served carefully on the side.
After the little prince had eaten his fill, he burped contentedly and fell asleep peacefully again.
After an unknown amount of time, Xu Ke slowly woke up. When she opened her eyes, she saw Chu Musheng sitting beside the bed, looking at her gently.
Thinking of the prince always staying by her side, Xu Ke smiled embarrassedly.
"My Lord, where is the child?"
Xu Ke's voice still sounded a little lazy.
"Don't worry, my dear, the child has just eaten and gone to sleep."
Chu Musheng held her hand.
"Are you hungry, my beloved? I have asked the cook to prepare your favorite meal."
As soon as Chu Musheng finished speaking, the maids came in one after another and placed delicious dishes on the table.
Xu Keke smelled the aroma of the food and her stomach growled. She pushed the quilt aside and was about to get out of bed, but was stopped by Chu Musheng.
"My beloved, you just gave birth today. Don't get out of bed. I will bring you whatever you want to eat."
Chu Musheng helped Xu Keke sit up, put a soft pillow behind her, and served her some food.
"My beloved, please eat quickly and take good care of yourself."
Xu Keke picked up the chopsticks, tasted the food, and squinted his eyes in satisfaction.
"Well, it's delicious."
Chu Musheng looked at her with a smile on his face.
"Eat slowly, don't choke."
After the meal, Xu Keke felt that she had some strength again. She leaned in Chu Musheng's arms and spoke sweet words to him.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your hard work today."
Xu Ke looked up at Chu Musheng.
Chu Musheng gently scratched her nose.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I am happy to take care of you and the child."
"Your Highness, please go and have your meal. Let Nanny Wang and the others bring the child here. I will be more energetic now."
Chu Musheng nodded.
"Okay, then I'll go have dinner first and will be back soon."
Soon, Nanny Wang came in holding the child, and Dingdang and Anxiang followed in.
"Princess, the little prince is fine."
Xu Keke took the child and looked at the little face with tenderness in her eyes.
"Is the baby crying? Has he not had his milk yet?"
Dingdang stepped forward to answer.
"Miss, you can rest assured and take good care of yourself. The little prince has a wet nurse to feed her, and there are servants to serve her!"
Anxiang also spoke up.
"Miss, the prince said that you must take good care of yourself during your confinement period. The servants will take good care of your little princess."
Nanny Wang nodded.
"The two wet nurses hired for the young prince are both reliable people. They live and eat in the palace, so Princess can rest assured.
Xu Keke listened to their conversations and smiled with relief.
She was not worried about the child's safety. With Nanny Wang and Dingdang Anxiang watching over him, she was naturally relieved.
