Chapter 598: with translation of chapter title

Lin Ru Jun is a martial practitioner; normally her body is quite good, although she was frightened and her water broke, after being sent to the clinic the situation wasn't that bad.

Gu Jiu Ling (glossary)

Zuo Feichen (glossary)

He blocked the doorway, looking at Zuo Feichen: "Gu Jiu Ling, he... he is a man, how can he enter my wife's room to help my wife give birth?"

Gu Jiu Ling looked at this fool, wanting to smash him with a hammer, and coldly said: "All right, if your wife has me assisting in childbirth, then your elder brother-in-law will have no power to turn things around; when Lin Jing Yuan dies, your wife will blame you—what will you do then?"

Chen Zhuo

Zuo Feichen lowered his eyes and said lightly: "This young master already has someone he loves; I have no interest in your wife. If you want mother and child to be safe, get out of my way!"

Old Marquis Cheng

Cheng Ming was dumbfounded, about to follow, but saw Zuo Feichen turn back and come out: "If you're not reassured, you can come in too."

Old Matriarch Lin

"I'm just watching from the side; if your wife has a difficult labor and needs surgery, I will only act then."

Cheng Ming, hearing Zuo Feichen say that, actually relaxed and also followed into the operating room.

Not long after, Prince Rui and the Grand Princess hurried into the clinic; upon hearing that their son had also entered the delivery room, their faces instantly turned cold.

"What has this come to, a respectable man actually also entered this bloody place?"

"Where is there a woman giving birth, with a man going in to accompany her?"

Former Crown Prince

Heir Apparent Grand Princess

Back then, the medicinal powder she gave Lin Jing Yuan, she still left some leeway and didn't deal a fatal blow.

Grand Princess Manor

Imperial Academy

Although Chen Zhuo willingly sacrificed himself, using his body to seek a way out for the Southern Qi officials, Lin Jing Yuan is no pushover, his methods are ruthless.

In the operating rooms on the east and west sides, one is life, one is death—either bring back to life or die together? The entire clinic is unprecedentedly tense.

Outside the clinic, the crowd was packed: there were students from the Imperial Academy, also people from Rui Wang Fu brought by Xiao Yin, and the guards from the Grand Princess's mansion, blocking the entire street tightly.

There were even people sent by the Crown Prince; Bai Xiaosheng originally thought that through this matter he could embarrass Xiao Yin, and perhaps he could reap the benefits from the sidelines.

Wangfu (glossary)

From noon until dusk, even until the sun set, the whole street had reached the time when lamps are lit, with scattered stars—beautiful yet not quite real.

Southern Qi (glossary)

Prince Rui (glossary)

Princess Consort of Rui (glossary)

Have you heard? It's a full 8 catties 7 taels!

A big fat kid!

The princess's manor finally has an heir; even the late Marquis Cheng's spirit can rest in peace.

Princess Consort of Rui sat in the main hall of the clinic, already tears pouring down like rain, crying uncontrollably.

She had been widowed at a young age.

Her husband, Marquis Cheng, had always been prestigious in the army, yet he died so early, leaving behind a posthumous son.

Who would have thought that after giving birth to her son Cheng Ming, he would still be a monster, with the entire Shang Jing laughing at her son.

This child Cheng Ming has been somewhat abnormal in mind since childhood; after finally meeting Gu Jiu Ling and undergoing surgery, he can now marry and have children.

She finally couldn't hold back and burst into loud sobs.

All the grievances of over twenty years were released at this moment.

Not long after, Cheng Ming personally carried his son out of the operating room.

He handed the child to the Princess Consort of Rui, who joyfully stood up and hurriedly took the swaddling.

She lowered her gaze; although the face resembled Lin Rujun more, the expression in the brows and eyes was exactly the same as her own son's.

Seeing this little one held in her arms, wailing loudly, the Princess Consort of Rui felt an indescribable joy.

She was about to say a few words to Cheng Ming, but her son handed the grandson to her and then turned and went into the ward.

The Princess Consort of Rui's expression froze for a moment, then she felt a surge of emotion.

When it comes to loving his wife, his son does a better job than his father.

When she gave birth to Cheng Ming back then, the court situation changed suddenly, and her husband died again at the frontier. 7k

If it weren't for a few senior generals in the army protecting her, she probably wouldn't have enjoyed so many peaceful days.

After the child was born, he turned out to be another freak, his belly abnormally large right from birth.

Back then she didn't know how she got through those endless nights; now, looking at her own grandson, a hint of affection crossed her face as she lowered her head and kissed him.

"Someone, bring those wet nurses from the suburbs to the princess's residence."

"Also, the young heir apparent's food, clothing, and daily needs must be properly prepared; I will personally oversee them."

Compared to the joy and excitement at the elder princess's manor, the Lin family's side is not so wonderful.

The old matriarch of the Lin family received the news and came to the outside of Gu Jiu Ling's clinic.

She is old and cannot withstand fright.

Lady Li personally accompanied the old lady of the Lin family; the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sat together in the Zheng Ting on the first floor, their faces full of worry.

The Duke of Lin passed away early; earlier they had painstakingly cultivated Lin Jingyuan, thinking that relying on the Li and Lin families, as well as the former Crown Prince, Lin Jingyuan would surely rise to prominence.

Who would have thought that the former Crown Prince actually died at the hands of Prince Rui, and now they have even more enmity with Prince Rui; if it weren't for Ru Jun having some ties with the Rui Wang Fu, not to mention her own son, even the entire Lin family couldn't be protected.

This time they have offended the Rui Wang Fu terribly.

Now the Princess Consort of Rui doesn't even know whether, in saving Jingyuan, she will exert her full effort or merely put up a front.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law never imagined that the Lin family would have come to this point; for a moment, it was utterly bleak.

With great difficulty they heard crying from the second floor—Lin Rujun had given birth to a son, and only then did the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's faces improve a little.

The two trembled as they rose to their feet, only to see Consort Ling and the Grand Princess slowly descending while holding the grandson.

Matriarch Lin hurried forward, never expecting the Grand Princess to not even let them see the grandson, holding herself aloft she coldly said, "Matriarch, though it's unpleasant, I must say this."

"Rujun is, after all, a daughter who married out of the Lin family; if your household causes any more trouble, my princess's manor cannot guarantee anyone's safety."

Matriarch Lin's face instantly darkened.
