I insist

Chapter 573: Production

Yu Huailin sneered: "Why don't you try?"

Seeing his confident demeanor, the Seventh Prince suddenly burst into laughter: "Good, very good. Since you've brought wine, let's drink until we drop today."

Yu Huailin wouldn't bring up anything that would upset the Seventh Prince at this time. He simply raised his wine glass, and the two of them drank quite a bit of wine that night.

The next morning, Yu Huailin did not attend the morning court session. Instead, he personally came to see off the Seventh Prince and his army.

"My lords, I await your triumphant return. Fine wine, delicious food, and sumptuous feast await you. I hope you all return safely. Today, I offer you this toast as a farewell gift."

"The next time we drink will be in the palace. I'll be waiting for you."

Yu Huailin raised the large bowl in his hand, shouted at the army, and then drank it all in one gulp.

Perhaps inspired by Yu Huailin's words, the soldiers became excited and kept shouting.

Yu Huailin and the Seventh Prince exchanged a glance where no one could see them, then looked away. Afterward, the army set off, and everyone watched them leave the capital.

Time flies, and Song Miqiu is now in the late stages of her pregnancy. This period has been very difficult for her, and Yu Huailin has been by her side every step of the way, taking care of her.

"Don't you have anything else to do? Staying with me all this time? You're the emperor now, not an ordinary citizen. Even ordinary citizens don't stay with pregnant women all the time."

Although Song Miqiu said she was disgusted, she was actually very happy, after all, her loved ones were with her.

Yu Huailin completely ignored her words, saying calmly, "I'm going to stay with you. You're in the later stages now, so naturally you need to be careful."

"Your belly is so big, I don't feel comfortable letting anyone else take care of you. Besides, even when I'm with you, I haven't neglected my duties. Don't worry."

“Do you think none of the ministers will say anything if you do this? I don’t believe it,” Song Miqiu said.

Yu Huailin laughed: "You have to believe me. Even if they are dissatisfied, they don't dare to say it to my face now. Aren't they afraid I'll get angry? They'll be the ones who suffer then."

"It seems you've established your authority. How's the matter of the remnants of the previous dynasty going? Are they alright?"

Song Miqiu touched her belly, looked at Yu Huailin, and asked.

Yu Huailin nodded: "Fortunately, they always bring good news. They encountered quite a few along the way, but they have all been resolved and are now continuing on their way."

"I heard it was not far from the capital, but it seems they just sent a few people to provoke us. The main force should be behind them. Tell them to be careful."

Song Miqiu frowned slightly, unable to suppress her worry.

Yu Huailin didn't want her to think so much, so he quickly said, "Don't worry, with the Night King here, nothing will happen. What you need to do now is..."

Just be good and don't worry me. You don't need to worry about anything else, okay?

Song Miqiu nodded: "Okay, I'll leave these things to you. I don't want to worry about them."

Yu Huailin also touched her belly. In fact, he was looking forward to the birth of his and Song Miqiu's child. In his anticipation, the delivery finally came.

Yu Huailin originally planned to stay with Song Miqiu when she gave birth, but the midwife kicked him out and wouldn't let him in no matter what she said.

There was nothing he could do but wait anxiously in place, his eyes constantly fixed on the room.

Since neither Yu Huailin nor Song Miqiu had any experience, he called Qiu Tianlei and Tian Yumei over so they could help if anything happened.

Suddenly, a painful scream came from inside the room, which terrified Yu Huailin.

He walked straight to the door and shouted inside, "Qiu'er, Qiu'er, are you alright, Qiu'er?"

Not hearing a reply, Yu Huailin tried to rush in, but Qiu Tianlei grabbed his hand.

Seeing him like this, Tian Yumei was afraid he might do something, so she quickly told Qiu Tianlei to step forward and stop him from rushing in at any time.

Yu Huailin struggled, having forgotten that he knew martial arts.

"Let me go, I need to go in and see Qiu'er, let me go."

Qiu Tianlei pulled him tightly and said, "Don't be afraid. Everyone has to go through this when giving birth. Besides, this is the sound of her pushing out to give birth."

If you go inside and she sees you, she'll cry and say she doesn't have the strength to give birth. That could cause problems for both of you. So you should just stay outside.

"Just wait for the baby to be born, are you going to cause her any more trouble?"

Upon hearing that both the children and adults were in danger, Yu Huailin immediately stopped what he was doing, but still looked around the room with great concern.

Song Miqiu's shouts made him feel uncomfortable all over. His face turned pale, his hands clenched into fists, and his eyes were full of regret.

He truly regretted it. He regretted letting Song Miqiu go through all of this, and he regretted letting her have the child. If he had known it would turn out this way, he definitely wouldn't have let her have the child.

Every second felt incredibly long until finally, the sound of a child crying could be heard.

The midwife's voice came from inside: "It's born! It's born!"

The midwife was holding the baby, and before she could tell Yu Huailin whether it was a boy or a girl, he pushed her away, rushed into the room, and hugged Song Miqiu tightly.

"I'm sorry, Qiu'er, it's all my fault. It's all my fault for making you go through this. If I had known it would be this painful, I would never have let you have the child."

"Qiu'er, I regret it, I really regret it."

As Yu Huailin spoke words of regret, his body trembled slightly, and Song Miqiu felt a slight chill.

Song Miqiu was somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected her childbirth to frighten Yu Huailin like this. She patted his shoulder forcefully: "You don't need to apologize to me."

There's no need to regret it; it was all my own choice. Isn't loving someone about bearing their children?

"No more, I don't want it anymore." Yu Huailin hugged Song Miqiu tightly, afraid of losing her.

The room was so cozy. The midwife, standing to the side, holding the baby, looked at the others with some helplessness, unsure of who to entrust the child to.

At this moment, Tian Yumei walked in and, seeing the midwife's condition, took the initiative to say, "Give the child to me. I don't know if it's a boy or a girl."

Seeing someone take the baby, the midwife breathed a sigh of relief: "Her Majesty the Empress has given birth to a little prince. The Emperor is so sorry for Her Majesty that he hasn't even seen the baby yet."

Upon hearing that it was a prince, Tian Yumei was genuinely happy for Song Miqiu. After all, with a prince, both Yu Huailin and she would have much less pressure.

Song Miqiu had used up too much energy giving birth, and she said softly, "I'm so tired, I want to rest for a while."

Upon hearing this, Yu Huailin quickly released her and said, "Okay, you rest well. I'll stay here with you. Don't be afraid."

Upon hearing his words, Song Miqiu smiled slightly, then closed her eyes and fell asleep shortly afterward.
