LEGEND OF THE GOLDEN TIGRESS 386 Birth Of The Twins

Xing was stunned by the sudden action of the Emperor and she froze for a moment. For an Emperor to kneel in front of her, begging... And that too for Weiye?

"Why? Kouki? Why are you doing this for her?", Xing asked the Emperor holding her wrist tightly and burying his forehead in her hands. " It's not like you love her".

Xing's tone was filled with concern and care for the Emperor and her disapproval for his actions laced throughout her demeanour.

Even though Chenglei, her father and Lord Zhong were the ones who placed him on the throne, it was she who exalted him to the revered and exalted one as he is now. For him to grovel and beg for a woman and that too someone like Weiye, it irked her.

"She's the mother of..."

"Do not give me that, Lu Junjie!", Xing gritted her teeth. "Do not pretend even for a second she is a good mother. If so, where is Ah Xuan? Shouldn't he be here crying for his mother?", her voice resounded in the hall now had no one and Chenglei snorted seeing his brother on his knees for a woman.

"Let's leave, JiaXing!", he tried to pry his brother's hands off of her hands but the Emperor only held on to her more.

"Still... Please hear me out, Mingxia! This place... One cannot survive without a mother. Even if she is a bad mother... Still, her presence is a protection." ,he looked at her with his eyes filled with tears.

Xing took a deep breath as she understood the logic behind his words.

The Emperor is someone who grew up without a mother in the inner palace and he'd very well know how his life was like. He was ignored and he ended up getting bullied. If not for his wits and protection of her father and his brother, he wouldn't have survived.

On other case, Even though Chenglei had a terrible mother, his life in the inner palace was smooth just because his mother was alive and her family was influential.

If Weiye dies, it would leave an opening for the t.i.tle of the Empress and the other women in the Harem will try to get that position and also to get the attention of the Emperor.

But the Emperor already has a son and so he won't be caring for the other woman or he'd be willing to make another heir.

And so, Ah Xuan will become the number one enemy of those ambitious women. Even the Emperor cannot protect him all the time since everyone knows the cardinal rule : Accidents happen in the inner palace!

So Xing realised the one pleading in front of her is not a man pleading for his wife but a father pleading for his son.

But he seems to forget one thing... His brother who protected him even from the Western Province and her father who protected him against the entire court will protect his son too. And now he has the Divine Ruler by his side too!

Is one Chu Weiye better than those horde of people surrounding the Crown Prince protecting him? No!!!

She herself is not capable and she doesn't even have a family to take care of her children. So unless the crown prince is under the wing of someone powerful, he cannot survive.

Isn't he already under Chenglei's protection? Chu Weiye is useless!

But Xing skipped telling the Emperor her thoughts, "Fine, I'll see what I can do, " she got her hands out of his grip and entered the bedchambers where Chu Weiye was sitting in a birthing chair and her face was sweaty and she was swearing a lot.

There were only a few maids and midwives left there with a couple of Imperial physicians to aide and all of them were petrified by everything going on.

As far as Xing has known, women cursing in pain during labour was pretty common but she had never met a woman who cursed the child in her belly for giving her pain.

Well, there seemed to be a first time for everything.

"Well, well! Is the Empress too moody today?", she asked after entering the room and all her curses turned towards her.

The others gave way for her as she was sent by the Emperor himself.

Xing placed her finger in her ears not bearing to hear her cusses. She really was uncouth and she wondered where she might have learnt all those cuss words.

One cannot believe a woman of n.o.ble birth!

She could see her dilated but her pelvic bone was not moving apart causing the baby distress and is prolonging the delivery process. Having twins in her belly was not helping her too.

"You Planned a lot, Weiye! But you failed...", Xing patted her head and Weiye tried to slap her but Xing moved aside and bent to her ears,

"What did you tell Lu Chenglei?", she whispered.

All Weiye could do was scream as her next contraction started and she cussed some more.

"Didn't you know that I was married to Lu Chenglie, the third prince, even before I entered the palace and that night that blood was made by the Emperor cutting his hand? You told my husband I slept with his brother. How stupid if you ... You thought you knew it all, Weiye? You think your family's death is all natural...? Think about it more.. ", she snorted and started to take care of the baby not caring about the shouts of Weiye.

Usually in these cases, they'd just cut the baby out and st.i.tch the uterus and stomach but it usually lead to death of the mother due to loss of blood.

Xing knew of some medicines to help with the opening of the pelvic bone but she decided to use her powers to aide her. It would be brutal and painful but it is possible to do it if she controlled her powers enough to not break the pelvic bone.

" She is killing me..."

"This is the Divine ruler"

"She is not dead!"

"Lord Li is Rui w.a.n.g!"

" She is having an affair with the Rui w.a.n.g"

"Treason!"

"Help! She is killing me!"

Amidst the screams of Weiye, the first child was born and Xing cut the cord.

"Congratulations, your highness! Its a Prince!", she smiled.

"F**k you! I wish all the curses on that child...", before she finished her sentence, Xing grabbed her throat.

"Mind your words Weiye! This child will support his brother who will sit in the throne following his father! I will personally see through it! But you won't!", Xing gritted her teeth.

The very few maids around just watched the Empress going crazy and the other person their Emperor begged to be there was actually pretty good at midwifery.

Xing had used her powers to silence her words so that only Weiye could hear her and others only saw her silently trying to deliver the babies while the Empress was going berserk and trying to attack the gracious woman who is helping her.

Xing pa.s.sed the baby to the maids to clean up and get to delivering the other baby and this girl came out easy and she cut the cord.

"A dragon and phoenix twins! Truly the Kingdom will see prosperity in years to come", she said and the entire room cheered and chanted greetings and well wishes to the twins.

Xing saw Weiye who had gone unconscious and she knew she had lost her sanity. The pain she suffered in this delivery combined with the facts she told her would have driven her to insanity.

Well, she wasn't sure but she was told if she believed something to be true, it will come to pa.s.s!

Being the Prince of Heavens is awesome!

After the babies were cleaned, Xing came out of Weiye's room with both babies in her hand. The Imperial Physician has already briefed the status to the Emperor and Xing saw the Emperor with a big smile in his face walking towards the babies.

He really meant it when he said he cared only for his children. He didn't even visit Weiye or asked about her other than if she is alive or not.

Pretty worse place she's got in his heart! Xing sighed.

She could have been the Queen of his heart! What a wasted opportunity!

Xing placed the girl in the Emperor's hands and she noticed Chenglei still there and seeing her looking tired he frowned and used his kerchief to wipe her face and she handed him the boy.

The boy was really pretty and only had a little hair in his head and Xing only then noticed the silvery hair.

"He looks like you!", Xing exclaimed looking at Chenglei and her entire face lit up.

It is amazing when a child looks like his uncle, isn't it?

"He resembles our grandfather. He is said to have silver hair too", Chenglei answered and her contagious smile spread to him.

May be because he was touched by Xing first or because she gave him to Chenglei, the second price spent a lot of time in their Manor as he grew up.

He always found ways to sneak past the tight security his Imperial father had for him and would end up in their Manor.

Once he stuck to the bottom of Chenglei's carriage and ended up in their Manor. He really knew how to be covert.

As he grew up, he learnt his sword skills from Chenglei and grew up hearing Xing's adventures and ended up being the 'Next Lord Táng' and a 'Brilliant Playboy' in the Heavenly Flowers Palace as he'd sneak out the palace for months even, as he came of age.

He grew up learning the ways of the world and had a lot of street smarts along with his usual n.o.ble Education. He always reminded Xing of Seiren. His characters resembled him too.

"Well, I don't know who she looks like", Xing looked at the baby girl with thick brown hair already asleep in the Emperor's arms.

She became a big comfort for the Emperor as she grew up as she stuck to her Imperial Father like a glue.

She loved her father a lot and was adamant on not getting married until she was twenty when a youngster wooed her until she got tired of his persistence and married him.

She and her twin brother never got along as she'd always tattle on him making him enraged and he always played pranks on his sister and would end up getting punished for it.

There was once a great debate among Xing, Chenglei and the Emperor about who the little Princess takes after and it was then deduced that she looked like the Emperor's mother as they got hold of his mother's painting from the archives.

Chu Weiye,lost her sanity as Xing wanted and spent the rest of her life in the cold palace with only a couple of maids to serve her.

The Emperor never slept with any other women and cleared the inner palace giving separate estate for his other concubines and keeping them away from him.

There were only two princes and a princess who were the children of the TongTian Emperor.

Like most of the greatest Emperors of their kingdom, the TongTian Emperor was not lucky with his love and he didn't have a woman holding his heart, till the end of his life.

As for the Princes, they got along just like their father and uncle did and they worked together till the end of their lives even though there were many forces who tried to separate them.

And did they have cousins?
