The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

Chapter 1121 Extra: Lu Sangyu and Yan Xingchen (3)

Is it too late at this age? Originally, Yan Xingchen thought it was too late.

But since she went to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion to see Hong Que and Chi Shuang, she suddenly felt that there was still hope.

And the two of them gave birth to their children very smoothly. In their words, "it didn't take any effort at all."

This was completely different from what Yan Xingchen had known about Princess Haiyan's near-death experience. She even asked Madam Meng why the birth of her first child at such an age was so smooth.

Madam Meng said that physical constitutions vary from person to person. There are only a few cases as strange and dangerous as Princess Haiyan's. For ordinary women, if the fetus is positioned properly and they take enough prenatal nourishing drinks, they can usually have a safe birth.

In those difficult births, nine out of ten cases were caused by the fetus being in transverse position, tearing the blood vessels in the uterus. Once the blood flowed like a dam bursting, even a god could not save the baby.

Yan Xingchen then asked, "Master Lu, have you made up your mind?"

Lord Lu blushed, "This mainly depends on whether Lord Yan has thought it through."

After all, men don't do much work, and it's women who suffer.

Lord Yan finished his bowl of lotus root starch in silence, and then he and Lord Lu walked slowly back home. As they walked, they went in opposite directions and arrived at the bridge over the Huaixing River.

She lowered her head, the tips of her shoes rubbing against the sunset light, "Then there are some things that need to be made clear."

"Well, you talk and I'm listening." Lord Lu's throat tightened slightly, his heartbeat inexplicably faster, and even the tips of his ears seemed to be dyed red by the setting sun.

Lord Yan paused on the bridge, watching the boats and the singing and dancing on the river alongside Lord Lu. "I wonder, Lord Lu, do you want to be the oarsman, protecting me for a while, seeing me off, and then letting me go back to shore once I've safely crossed the river? Or do you want to be a passenger in the boat with me, returning to shore together?"

"How about being a boatman? How about being a passenger in the boat?"

Yan Xingchen had actually thought about this for a long time, but it was still a little difficult to bring up. "The oarsman will withdraw after escorting the boat across the rapids, but the passengers on the boat have to bear the storm together. If you don't want to bear the responsibility of being a father, we will divorce after the child is born. The child will take my surname Yan."

Lu Sangyu nodded. "This is what's called 'leaving the father and keeping the son.'" He paused and said, "It seems the world has changed. Women are all into this now. It's not like before, when a woman would be like a weed with a broken vine, unable to survive if she left her husband."

Yan Xingchen said sternly, "In the past, when a woman was divorced and sent home, at best her family would seize her land and property, and at worst her family would be drowned in a pond and wiped out. It was like a dodder, clinging to a rotten tree to survive."

Lord Yan, in Lu Sangyu's peripheral vision, was shrouded in the rosy glow, his scarlet robe was soaked in golden halo, and his eyebrows and eyes were gentle yet stubborn.

She has a decisiveness in her bones that is difficult for men to match, but she knows better than any girl in the boudoir how to use the tip of a needle to poke the finest wrinkles in people's hearts.

Her whole body was glowing. "Now I am an official appointed by the Emperor, and the elders of the clan must bow down to me! The clan members all fawn over me. Who dares to stab me in the back?"

Lu Sangyu understood.

She does not need to rely on men for food and clothing, nor does she fear the verbal attacks of the world. With a knowledge of poetry and books, she can teach her children, and with the seal in her hand, she can control the world.

If it weren't for the need for a man to provide a seed, she would probably be able to give birth to the child herself, and the man would have nothing to do with it.

He asked, "According to what you said, what do I need to do to be that fellow traveler? I'll think about whether I can do it."

Lu Sangyu's question stumped Yan Xingchen.

She actually doesn't have any special rules, she just simply thinks that some men are dirty and cause trouble, so it's better not to have them.

Her eyes suddenly lit up, and she leaned close to his ear and whispered, "There are two role models you shouldn't follow. One is Princess Haiyan's father..."

Shi Chengxuan, who was practicing calligraphy at home, suddenly sneezed, "Chang Wu, Chang Wu, I told you to close the window, why didn't you close it?"

Chang Wu was puzzled. "It's closed." He coaxed his master, "You sneeze, it must be Princess Haiyan and the children missing you."

Shi Chengxuan raised his head and said, "That's possible. I miss my daughter and grandchildren, too, hehe..."

On the Huaixing River Bridge, Yan Xingchen mentioned another person, "Even more undesirable than the previous one is our old General Ma."

"What happened to General Ma?" Lu Sangyu knew very little.

Yan Xingchen was at a loss for words. "General Ma...there's a reason why he's been deserted by everyone."

She had to learn more about this person in order to select the names to be included in the Danqingzhi. After learning more about him, she crossed General Ma's name off the list.

She told Lu Sangyu a lot of things she had investigated, including family affairs and military affairs, and Lu Sangyu was shocked.

"No wonder Mrs. Huang wanted to divorce him earlier. This guy! I can't interfere in family affairs, but why is he so messy in military affairs?" Lu Sangyu's eyes were gloomy.

The two of them smoothly transitioned from "fatherly responsibilities" to their beloved official duties, and they were in perfect harmony.

Yan Xingchen said, "If my estimate is correct, it won't be long before someone comes to the Ministry of Justice to report General Ma."

But before he could report it, General Ma caught a cold, fell ill, and passed away. This is a story for later.

Since returning home that night, Mr. and Mrs. Lu Sangyu have planned their parental responsibilities, with hundreds of clauses and items.

The charter was drafted by the two of them together, and they both put their fingerprints on it after agreeing with each other.

After pressing the handprint, they both rubbed their foreheads and said: Oh! Oops, giving birth is a process, the baby can't just pop out by pressing a handprint!

The next day, Lu Sangyu got a booklet from somewhere and stuffed it into Yan Xingchen's hand with a serious look on her face, "Master Yan, please study it carefully. This is a compulsory course for having a baby!"

Yan Xingchen thought it was something good, so he took it and looked at it. His face flushed red all the way to his ears, "Master Lu, why are you not serious anymore?"

"How can this be considered dishonest of me? Continuing the family line is the most serious thing. What is going on in Lord Yan's mind?" Although Lu Sangyu blushed, she would not lose in a verbal battle.

Yan Xingchen threw the booklet back to Lu Sangyu with a red face, and Lu Sangyu threw the booklet back to Yan Xingchen.

The two of them laughed and chuckled. That evening, after bathing and burning incense to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth, they studied the booklet together. It was then that they realized… Princess Haiyan’s words were truly well said, “The Works of Nature unfold, and the four seasons follow their laws…”

The beauty of life is not just about court affairs, but also about couples who quarrel at one end of the bed and make up at the other, children who climb up the roof and tear up the tiles, and the process of giving birth to and raising children.

Mr. Lu, who is serious when he is outside, is obsessed with the process of making a baby. Now he runs home whenever he has time.

Creating a relaxed and happy atmosphere for his wife is also the husband's duty. He is not the kind of uncle who will just give up and leave after providing a seed!

Lord Yan, who was extremely anxious, was obsessed with the result of having a baby and would run home whenever he had time.

She is old, unable to get pregnant, and her age is still increasing. How can she not be anxious?

Whether the two adults are interested in the process or the result, they actually end up in the same destination.

Put your energy and your heart into one thing, work harder, and you will have a child and your life will be better.

When the couple thought of the saying "When the orioles sing, spring comes", they could automatically interpret it as "When babies cry, spring comes"...

The following year, Yan Xingchen successfully gave birth to a baby boy and named him Lu Riyan.

Good day, that's the end of the day. This way, I have my father's last name and my mother's last name. Everyone has contributed, so there's no reason to leave anyone out.

In this life, Lu Sangyu lives a peaceful life with his wife and children.

His heart was filled with joy.
