Chapter 963

The overall layout was impeccable; this Great Ming Palace was originally prepared by Li Er for himself to live in.

But it was snatched away by Qin Mu.

Generally speaking, Liu Bowen had nothing to say, but he did raise one point.

"Your Majesty, the surroundings of this Taiye Pond are too empty; you could erect two white pagodas, one large and one small, by the pond."

Qin Mu imagined it; it seemed that erecting two white pagodas would make the scenery even more beautiful.

Just at this moment, a palace maid came to deliver a message.

"Your Majesty, Consort Xue is about to give birth!"

Qin Mu was suddenly overjoyed.

Li Xueyan had been pregnant for so long; recently, he had been worried every moment about whether the birth would happen at any second.

Now, she was finally about to give birth!

Qin Mu hurriedly lifted his robes and walked toward Li Xueyan's palace.

Liu Bowen originally wanted to withdraw; it was not very convenient for him to move about in the inner palace.

But he was called back by Qin Mu.

"Bowen, come with me, so you can help the Imperial Child look at their fate."

This was a special honor!

According to custom, infants are not allowed to see outsiders before their hundredth day.

But Liu Bowen possessed special talents, and he could not stay in Chang'an for many days, so he was given the opportunity to see the Imperial Prince in advance.

This honor alone was enough for Liu Bowen to brag about to others for a lifetime!

Qin Mu arrived at Li Xueyan's bedchamber; many people were already standing in front of the door, all of them concubines of the inner palace.

Wu Meiniang, holding her belly, stepped forward, her eyes filled with worry.

Because she would also face childbirth in another month.

"Your Majesty, I am so nervous!"

"Don't be afraid! As long as the response is reasonable, nothing will go wrong."

Although Qin Mu comforted Wu Meiniang this way, he was equally nervous in his own heart.

None of them had such experience.

Here, only one person had experience.

Empress Zhangsun.

She came over, took Qin Mu's hand, and said.

"Mu'er, it is not easy for a woman to give birth, but being able to have a husband as good as you has already given Xueyan the greatest motivation.

It is her first time giving birth, so it might still take a while.

Why don't you go to the room to rest for a while?"

Qin Mu did not go.

At this moment, he was thinking about one thing in his heart.

He was a transmigrator; he did not know if the child born in this world would also be a transmigrator?

He wanted to confirm this at the first opportunity!

As long as he watched the child's reaction the moment they were born, he would know.

Normal children would all cry loudly.

But as a transmigrator, being born into a new world for the first time, their heart would be filled with curiosity, and they might very likely forget to cry.

In his heart, Qin Mu did not want a transmigrator son.

As a transmigrator, one carries the heavy responsibility of time and space.

Qin Mu himself had been forced to establish the Great Qin nation because of this responsibility.

The Great Qin nation was already doing quite well now; it did not need another person to stir it up.

Qin Mu would rather his child be a person thoroughly of this era. If he taught the child some things, it would be enough for the child to live a life without worries.

Time seemed to have passed for a long time, yet also very quickly.

Until a loud cry of an infant awakened the deep-thinking Qin Mu.

He knew the child was born!

"Quick, bring it over, let me see!"

The newborn infant was pink and tender, wrinkled, eyes tightly closed, wrapped in a small blanket.

Seemingly out of fear of this strange world, the infant was crying earth-shatteringly!

Qin Mu looked carefully for a long time before he let out a sigh of relief.

This was a girl; she should not be a transmigrator!

"Is Xueyan alright? Can I go in to see her now?"

"Your Majesty, they are still cleaning up some filth inside, please don't go in for now. Consort Xue is doing perfectly well."

Qin Mu completely set his heart at ease.

He turned around, holding the child, and let Liu Bowen take a look.

"Bowen, what do you think of the Imperial Daughter's fate?"

Liu Bowen looked at the child's physiognomy and then calculated the birth date and time on his fingers.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Daughter's fate is indeed noble beyond words.

It is just that, the five elements are pure fire!

It is of no great consequence.

In terms of personality, she will appear relatively lively and enthusiastic.

But because she was born in this Imperial Palace, and is Your Majesty's eldest daughter, I fear it will trigger a wave of drought across the world!"

Drought!

That fellow Li Chunfeng really guessed it right!
