Chapter 1126: Happy Events in Liangzhou

Bleeding incidents continue to occur throughout the Dragon Flame Nation.

This time, it was not just in Jinghua; even scholars in other provinces were filled with righteous indignation, one by one, becoming frantic.

A Simplified Chinese character—this was as if they were cutting off their own path to the future!

But at the same time, those commoners who had always been illiterate showed their own yearning for knowledge and Simplified Chinese. At first, they felt they could not afford to provoke these scholarly masters, but later on, they also began to stand up against these scholars.

And so.

Almost the entire Dragon Flame Nation entered into this confrontation.

Scholars had always been highly respected in the society of the past.

But this time...

For the sake of their own interests, they had even abandoned their own dignity!

The situation continued to ferment.

Every time people who wanted to "prove their resolve with death" and "vow to protect Traditional Chinese" died, it caused temporary social unrest.

Liu Zheng was naturally cursed thoroughly once again.

"He is here to bring disaster to Dragon Flame!"

"If everyone can read, how can books be expensive?"

"Exactly!"

"Books are the objects of sages; how can we allow these low-born people to lay their hands on them!"

"Absurd, absurd!"

"Blasphemy, this is the blasphemy of low-born people against the sages!"

Everywhere, there were such remarks.

For the time being.

Liu Zheng did not pay them any mind.

Because he was still very busy.

In the last few days, he had been busy working with Zhu Zhen and the entire officialdom group to discuss a very important issue, which was the Constitution!

The Constitution, for any country, is of the utmost importance.

Especially for a constitutional monarchy, the Bill of Rights is only an opening chapter; the subsequent Constitution is the real main course.

Everyone had already agreed that the day Xie Ming truly ascended the throne would be the moment to officially promulgate the Constitution.

The enthronement ceremony was naturally also continuing.

Also in preparation was the funeral of Xie Tianyao.

A headache.

Liu Zheng had a headache every day, so he did not want to pay any attention to the clamor of these scholars.

At the very least...

The change of imperial power in Dragon Flame this time, up to now, was still generally stable.

"I think this clause should be like this!"

"No, no, no, we should still add this in!"

"Lord Zhu?"

"What about this clause..."

The work of drafting the Constitution was naturally very rigorous. With so many people, all of whom were bigwigs familiar with the situation in the Dragon Flame Nation, everyone's opinions were very important. Liu Zheng, Zhu Zhen, and the Prince of Qin were also following along, perfecting step by step this law that was destined to influence Dragon Flame the most.

Just at this moment, good news was sent back from Liangzhou.

Feng Sanniang had given birth.

But what made people collapse was that this time, Feng Sanniang had given birth to another son.

"What?"

When Liu Zheng heard this news, he was also left between laughter and tears.

Liangzhou Prefecture.

Liu Dahao was outside the delivery room, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

He paced back and forth while pressing his palms together in prayer.

One moment he was muttering that his daughter must be healthy, and the next he began to mutter that his wife's safety was the most important thing.

Several midwives were working hard in the delivery room, and a physician was standing by, prepared.

This was the child of the Xiliang King!

Moreover, Feng Sanniang was already of advanced maternal age, so the situation was still very tense. Everyone in the mansion was praying along with Liu Dahao. Feng Sanniang usually did not have any airs of a noble lady; she was very easygoing and carefree, and whether it was the stewards, servants, or maids, they all had a very strong fondness for her.

"Heaven, good people deserve good rewards!"

"The noble lady must be safe!"

"And the child, the child..."

"Yes, yes, and our Liu Family's daughter!"

This wait lasted an entire afternoon.

The wailing sounds of Feng Sanniang had never stopped; every time she wailed, it made people's hearts tighten.

The wailing sound from Feng Sanniang had never once ceased, and with every howl, it made one's heart tighten along with it.

Near dusk, a very powerful cry of a baby resounded through the air of Liangzhou Prefecture.

As dusk approached, the vigorous cry of a newborn baby rang out through the air of Liangzhou Prefecture.

"Ah!"

"Alright, alright!"

"It's out, it's out!"

Liu Dahao's eyes were red as he watched several midwives run out, all of them saying with joyful expressions, "Congratulations to the Prince, congratulations to the Prince! It is a young master, a little young master!"

"Ah?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Dahao's face immediately fell.

What on earth?

A young master?

What he wanted was a daughter!

Come to think of it, Liu Dahao and Feng Sanniang were not as conservative in their thinking; in this era, every family hoped for many sons and few daughters, but they felt otherwise—their son, Liu Zheng, was already so heaven-defying... what was the point of having another son?

If he were as capable as Liu Zheng, that would be one thing.

But if he turned out to be a spendthrift, wouldn't that just infuriate them to death?

Furthermore, having too many sons involved the hereditary succession of the title and the division of family property; since ancient times, in imperial families, were there not enough cases of brothers turning against each other and killing their fathers or brothers?

Therefore.

The couple had always hoped that this second child would be a daughter.

Who would have thought...

Another son?

"My wife, my wife!"

But regardless of whether it was a son or a daughter, it was still their own child, and Liu Dahao was still very happy, rushing inside like a madman.

One of the midwives inside said with a chuckle, "Congratulations to the Prince, the little young master weighs six jin and eight liang, he is quite sturdy!"

Good heavens!

In ancient times, a child weighing six jin and eight liang was certainly not small.

But ever since Liu Dahao rushed in, his eyes had been red as he looked at Feng Sanniang, who was lying on the bed with a faint breath, and he choked out, "My wife..."

The physician nearby quickly said that the Princess was doing just fine and only needed to rest quietly.

Liu Dahao was full of concern, fussing over her and asking after her well-being.

Fortunately, Feng Sanniang was a martial artist; otherwise, an ordinary person would truly not have been able to endure for so long. Her recovery was also relatively fast. At this moment, her pale face gradually turning rosy, she gave Liu Dahao a coquettish glare: "Are you stupid? How long has it been, and you still haven't gone to look at the child!"

"Ah? Ah, ah, ah! Where is the child? Where is he!"

Only then did Liu Dahao react, becoming flustered and chaotic.

This caused the whole room to burst into laughter.

This Liu Dahao was truly too doting on his wife... he was even the famous henpecked husband of Liangzhou.

A man who would forget where the child was when giving birth, only caring about his own wife, was truly a treasure of a man...

"Hahahaha, good!"

The child in the swaddling clothes, perhaps because he was not small in size when born, did not have that wrinkled appearance; after a while, his delicate skin, healthy complexion, and large eyes made one feel very delighted.

Liu Dahao could not help but laugh out loud.

People are just like this.

Regardless of whether they were expecting a son or a daughter, when the child is truly born, that feeling of blood being thicker than water is still very overwhelming.

"Look, look, isn't he as beautiful as my wife? Hahahaha!"

"This smile is very much like Zheng's!"

"Good!"

"Very handsome!"

The entire Liangzhou Prefecture began to beat drums and gongs, hanging up lanterns and colorful decorations.

The Prince had a little young master; this was a major event for Liangzhou and absolutely could not be handled sloppily.

It was just that, next.

Liu Dahao was a bit conflicted about the naming of his little son.
