As the storm raged in the Middle Heaven for three days, a monumental event occurred in the Lower Heaven!
The Iron Cloud Empire finally succeeded in unifying the world, dominating the Lower Heaven!
Even the wolves of the Northern Frontier Prairie submitted!
Looking around the Lower Heaven, it was all territory of the Iron Cloud Empire!
Tie Butian had truly become the ruler of the world. Under the heavens, there was no land that did not belong to the king; along the shores, there were no subjects that did not belong to the king!
As the entire nation celebrated, your imperial majesty only dispatched representatives from Iron Dragon City to join in the festivities.
However, he himself remained inside the palace. It was said that the empress Wu Qianqian was about to give birth. Your imperial majesty was unable to leave.
After this news spread, the entire nation was elated. Not only did everyone refrain from saying anything negative, but they also believed that your imperial majesty was deeply affectionate and righteous, a rare good man in the world! It was a blessing for the Iron Cloud Empire to have such a monarch, a fortune for all the people!
Some even noticed that although the prince of Iron Dragon was celebrating with the officials, his eyes frequently turned toward the palace, revealing a hint of anxiety and unease. It seemed he was eager to leave this place and return to the palace…
In the palace, Lanmei Xian anxiously paced outside the delivery room, her face filled with worry and pain.
Inside the delivery room, intermittent groans could be heard, seemingly suppressing the pain…
Beside her sat a handsome couple, the man refined and elegant, while the woman was dignified and graceful, resembling a pair of celestial beings.
Lanmei Xian sighed repeatedly, pacing back and forth, finally saying, “Ruolan, are the midwives you brought from Upper Heaven reliable? Feiling, I’m not saying anything about your Chu Family, but what good midwives do you have? I told you to go to the Lan Family and find Granny Cui, but you wouldn’t listen. Now your Chu Family has sent five or six midwives, but they have been inside for half a day without any news. What are these midwives even doing?”
The couple was Yang Ruolan and Chu Feiling.
It turned out that Tie Butian was ultimately not at ease with the palace midwives and was worried about leaks, so Lanmei Xian immediately sent a message to Yang Ruolan and then she and Chu Feiling personally brought the midwives down…
Yang Ruolan smiled and said, “Master, there’s no need to worry. The midwives I brought are all experienced and possess high vital energy. Moreover, we’ve already checked; my junior sister’s position is very stable, so there shouldn’t be any accidents.”
She found it somewhat amusing in her heart; the midwives from the Lan Family… were certainly good, but if her master didn’t go, how could she and her husband bring them over?
That was the Lan Family after all.
“But why is it taking so long?” Lanmei Xian was extremely anxious.
“Master, you may not know…” Yang Ruolan felt it difficult to speak: “Giving birth is not that simple. When I gave birth to my child, I endured a whole day and night of excruciating pain…”
Saying this, she couldn’t help but feel a wave of sadness. Remembering her lost child, her heart ached, and her eyes turned red.
Chu Feiling quickly comforted her.
Chu Feiling was somewhat restless. If not for worrying about his beloved wife going out alone and encountering an accident, he wouldn’t have come this time. How could he, as the brother-in-law of his wife’s junior sister who was giving birth, just sit outside waiting?
“That damned Chu King of Hell!” Lanmei Xian said angrily, “He caused trouble and just walked away! This bastard, how much suffering and pain Tian Tian has endured! Now, at such a crucial moment when his child is about to be born, he doesn’t even show up!”
She stomped her foot heavily: “This truly infuriates me!”
Yang Ruolan let out a bitter laugh, thinking that the man knew nothing, how could he possibly be here?
