Following the tidal contractions, Princess Chang Le felt waves of abdominal pain.
It was said that the pain of childbirth was the most intense, but it had to last for twelve hours.
Only half an hour had passed.
Princess Changle was drenched in sweat and exhausted.
Her body was already relatively weak, and she could not bear the pain of giving birth.
At this moment, Chang Le looked extremely weak and dispirited. He didn't even have the strength to moan.
Empress Zhangsun looked at Chang Le, who was suffering so much, and her heart ached so much that tears fell.
The midwife also noticed Chang Le's weakness. She wiped Princess Chang Le's forehead and cheeks with a hot towel and encouraged,"
"Your Highness, hold on!"
"Take a deep breath and use force. Your Highness, don't panic.”
"The more flustered you are, the more energy you expend and the more painful it is!”
It had to be said that among all the pregnant women, Chang Le was definitely the one with the worst stamina.
If not for her perseverance, she would have fainted.
Fortunately, this was the Imperial Palace, and there were many ways to remedy the situation!
The midwife served the midwifery medicine soup that Imperial Physician Sun had brewed.
Empress Zhangsun personally fed it to Chang Le.
This midwifery soup was a great tonic. The effect was immediate. The originally weak Princess Chang Le had recovered a lot of strength.
However, the pain in her lower abdomen did not decrease at all. In fact, the pain was even more intense!
Chang Le couldn't help but groan loudly,
The sound spread outside Changle Palace. The empresses and princesses pricked up their ears and their hearts skipped a beat.
"It seems that the Qilin Saint Child isn't that good.”
The crowd discussed.
As a child, Li Yu had no choice but to be as gentle as possible to reduce Princess Chang Le's pain.
But now, the opening of the palace had only opened up a little bit. At most, it could only allow a finger to pass through.
Li Yu didn't dare to force his way out. He still needed Princess Chang Le to work harder.
Princess Chang Le seemed to have sensed something. She rubbed her stomach and said,
"Little fellow, I must give birth to you safely.”
Time passed bit by bit.
Every moment was the moment to give up.
However, Chang Le persisted…
At this moment, in the Political Announcement Hall.
Li Shi Min and the ministers were discussing an urgent matter.
The snow disaster in Guanzhong!
Since the beginning of winter this year, there had been several heavy snowfalls without a break!
The snow was waist-deep, making it difficult to travel.
In the cold weather, many people were affected. Frozen corpses could be seen outside Chang 'an City.
If the snow continued, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Li Shimin sat on the throne and discussed countermeasures with the ministers.
"Your Majesty, this snow disaster is a natural disaster! It's not something that can be controlled by humans!" Wei Zheng advised,"The imperial court must open the granaries to release grain and distribute warm clothes and firewood to the poor."”
He had been demoted by one rank because he had offended the princess previously.
However, Li Er's trust in Wei Zheng did not decrease at all.
The imperial court needed someone like him to speak his mind!
With this as a contrast, it would make the people feel that Li Er was a wise ruler.
Hearing Wei Zheng's words, the other ministers also agreed. Disaster relief was like putting out a fire. It could not be delayed.
However, Zhangsun Wuji raised a different opinion.
"The imperial court doesn't have much grain left, and His Majesty wants to use this grain as a military tool to conquer the foreign tribes in the Western Regions next year.”
Zhangsun Wuji was indeed an old fox.
When the other ministers supported the opening of the granaries, he stood on Li Shimin's side and raised his objections.
There was a reason why this fellow was ranked as the number one contributor to the Lingyan Pavilion and Li Shi Min's most trusted official.
After the ministers expressed their opinions, they waited for Li Shimin to make a decision.
Li Er thought for a while and asked the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor,"
"Yuan Tiangang, when autumn just entered today, Guanzhong suffered a great drought. Fortunately, the rain fell in time to alleviate the drought. Based on the weather you have observed recently, how long will the snow last?”
Yuan Tiangang reported,
"Your Majesty, judging from the five elements and six qi and the astronomical phenomena, the weather this year should be extreme. It should be dry in the summer and extremely cold in the winter. I'm afraid this heavy snow won't stop so easily.
Unless one could use one's luck to change the movement of the world, it would be possible to affect the weather for a short period of time and stop the snow.”
Li Er asked curiously," Everyone in the imperial court is a pillar of the Tang Empire. They should be extremely lucky. Is there anyone who can change the Qi of Heaven and Earth?"”
"Forgive me for being blunt." "You're just an ant trying to shake a tree!" Yuan Tiangang said frankly.”
In layman's terms, although the ministers were so glorious, they were all trash in front of the world!
The officials all smiled bitterly, and some were unconvinced.
Cheng Yaojin stood up and said,"
"Yuan Tiangang, I, Old Cheng, don't like to hear your words. His Majesty is the Supreme One, isn't it enough to change the Qi of Heaven and Earth?”
"It's impossible, even for His Majesty!" Yuan Tiangang shook his head.”
"What big words!" Cheng Yaojin scolded," Yuan Tiangang, aren't you f * cking spouting nonsense? If even His Majesty can't do it, then who else in this world can?"”
The ministers shook their heads. This Yuan Tiangang was just pretending!
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, the God-given Son in Princess Changle's womb might be able to use his own luck to impact the Qi of the changing world.”
Yuan Tiangang finally gave his answer, causing an uproar among the officials.
"I, Old Cheng, am puzzled. That kid hasn't even been born yet. Is he really that godly?”Cheng Yaojin was still not convinced.
" That's right. This kid can trigger the phenomenon of purple qi coming from the east and a hundred dragons worshipping him. Perhaps…" Yuan Tiangang hadn't finished explaining.
Cheng Yaojin interrupted him." Yuan Tiangang, don't play with these empty words. I, Old Cheng, can't see it. Just tell me how to stop the snow."”
" It's easy to say. As long as the child is born, he can naturally use his own luck to impact the qi of the world and perhaps stop the snow…" Yuan Tiangang said,""Counting the time, the child should be born in one or two days.”
"Yuan Tiangang, don't brag! If Princess Changle's child is born and the snow doesn't stop, I, Old Cheng, will skin you alive to comfort the victims!”Cheng Yaojin scolded angrily.
He had never believed in these metaphysics theories. They would bring harm to the country and the people!
"What if the snow stops after this child is born?" Yuan Tiangang asked with a smile.”
"Then I, Old Cheng, will kneel down to that little saint and kowtow a hundred times. What's the harm?”Cheng Yaojin said casually.
"Your Majesty, we can't pin our hopes on an unborn child. We should open the granary in time to release food.”Wei Zheng continued to advise.
These words were irrefutable.
Li Shi Min was about to agree,
At this moment, the chief eunuch of the palace came over in a hurry. He seemed to have something to say, but he did not dare to interrupt the ministers 'discussion.
"Wang De, what's the matter?" Li Shi Min asked casually.
"Your Majesty, Princess Changle was admiring the auspicious beast White Deer this afternoon. Who knew that she was about to give birth and is now giving birth in her bedroom.”said Wang De.
The ministers were shocked!
The little guy they had deified as the Holy Son of the Qilin was about to be born!
Finally, this day had arrived.
Li Shi Min was the most excited and couldn't sit still anymore. He hurriedly said,
"Ministers, you can discuss the specific disaster relief matters here. I will go and see Princess Chang Le first.”
After saying that, Li Shimin hurried to Changle Palace.
