LEGEND OF THE GOLDEN TIGRESS 466 No Business?

A celebratory banquet was arranged in honour of the soldiers who fought in the war and brought victory to the Wind Kingdom.

Chenglei and Xing attended the banquet with their kids and so did Seiren and Maya. Some of thr Envoys from the United kingdoms of the South also attended.

Although both the families didn't partic.i.p.ate in the entire war but only a single battle, that was an important battle that proved the magnificence of the Wind Kingdom and ended the war too. And so they were celebrated along with the soldiers who fought the war for weeks.

As Xing entered, everyone noticed the slightly protruding belly of Princess Consort Jin and were flabbergasted.

"The pregnant Consort fought in the front lines and won for us?"

"Prince Jin vowed revenge for the compet.i.tion where the Consort hurt her hand. Will he take offence for the Consort fighting in the battle while pregnant? "

Everyone got aware of the situation they are in and decided not to even speak bad about Princess Consort Jin.

Some who doubted the news they got about Xing fighting in the battle changed their mind since there was definite proof they couldn't refute.

The banquet went on and the Envoys gave the best gifts from their kingdoms and then made a pretty bold request to annex their kingdoms with the Wind Kingdom.

Xing noticed Chenglei sitting unmoved while everyone else where flabbergasted by that request. She looked at the envoys with a smirk. Of course the envoys sent by the Southern Kingdoms were asked to make peace but they are selling out their kingdom.

So, Kouki, how are you going to answer?

"Why would We bother with your kingdoms?", he was blunt and showed himself to be not interested in their proposal.

Those kingdoms started an unnecessary war and they all must be hurting after their heavy loss. Now those who oppose the idiotic ruler of the kingdoms are here trying to make a deal for themselves.

Which Emperor wouldn't want more land to rule, right?

Too bad they don't know the Wind Emperor.

But it would be unwise to let go of such an opportunity that presents itself. The southern kingdoms had fertile lands with five great rivers that flows throughout the year. Also they are famous for their exotic trees and fragnant flowers that are peculiar to their region.

But it would be too much of a bother to establish their rule in that place torn to many factions by the war.

But a wise man among the Envoys tactfully expressed that the current king of their kingdoms is deposed and the Wind Kingdom just have to take on their government. Apparently there were many who were fed up by the current regime and there was already an internal civil war and their regime was overthrown.

The Emperor looked at Chenglei and he closed his eyes with a slight nod confirming that the envoys were right.

Xing was the one who got surprised by her husband's reach.

'He already established spies there? Just what Kind of human is he? How far ahead can he think and plan?'

"Impressed, wifey?", Chenglei leaned towards Xing with a smile, noticing her looking at him with starry eyes.

"Love you, hubby", she blinked her eyes cutely and Chenglei gritted his teeth to stop himself from kissing her then and there.

Xing felt a little uncomfortable sitting in there for long and so they left for their Manor early.

Later they learnt that the Emperor gave those areas for Ah Xuan to take care of since it would be a practice for ruling the entire Wind Kingdom. Of course the Emperor appointed skilled officials to guide his son. The most amazing thing was Ah Xuan accepted that responsibility rather happily and with all seriousness.

Months pa.s.sed and Chenglei was busy showing the ropes of dealing with various information in the memorials to Ah Xuan since the Emperor was busy ruling the Wind Kingdom.

Xing was in her full term and she knew the baby might come out anytime.

She had a feeling that the child in her belly is not too interested in his father or mother. With Little Lianlian, she knew he'd be more attached with his father since he always reacted to his father's voice but for Feifei, he would be calm and if Xing could not hear the baby's heartbeat, she'd have thought the baby was not fine. He never moved around or tried to bother her in anyway unlike Lianlian Who'd create a ruckus hearing his father's voice.

"Don't come out without me", Chenglei placed his hand over her belly and ordered his son, as he got ready to leave for the court.

"Why?", Xing asked since Chenglei seemed too eager to stay. And he wasn't that anxious this time around and he wanted to stay by her side.

"I want to see my son being born... I want to see him come out of you", Chenglei kissed her forehead and turned to leave.

"No way! You have no business at my business end! Trust me, you'd not like what goes on down there. No way", Xing refused firmly.

"Child birth is a beautiful thing emotionally but a terrible thing visually, okay? Trust me, if you see what's going on down there... You will regret it for the rest of your life", she added.

She knows! She has seen what's going on down there. It is not pretty!

"I want to see",he was decisive. "Son, wait for your father... And Xing! Don't pull off something like last time. I want to be by your side", Chenglei said firmly and left for court.

A couple hours later....

Chenglei literally ran inside their courtyard to hear the cries of the new born who was cleaned and swaddled comfortably.

Holding the baby, he entered the bedroom to see Xing already cleaned up.

Xing saw the disappointment in his face and sighed.she sent for him, alright.

"Well... I'm not going to putting him back in for you to see him coming out once again", her voice was a little weak but all in all she looked fine.

What she had was one of the fastest, express delivery. Her water broke and before she even sat properly in the birthing chair, the baby came out. She didn't even remember the pain.

"Oh, Xing...", Chenglei sat beside her and showed him their son after kissing her forehead.

"He looks exactly like Junjie",Chenglei had a smile looking at the baby with the green eyes with golden steaks and hair as dark as raven.

"No, he looks like you and he has my hair", Xing gently traced her finger through the baby's cheek.

"He has your nose...", she smiled, "I'm glad he looks like you. One like me, one like you. Aren't we blessed?", she was delighted and felt fulfilled except...

"Now give me girl babies, rascal", she gripped Chenglei's collar and he nodded like a good boy.

"I'll try harder"
