Chapter 2 The Newborn and the Old

The Jing'an Marquis' Mansion was happy to mention the young master. This is not as simple as having a male member in each family. It means that the emerging general of the Taikang Dynasty has roots since then, and it also means that Li Xin, the hereditary rank of Jing'an Marquis, has someone to pass on.

This little baby is the eldest son of Li Xin and the eldest princess, and Li Xin's eldest son. Like the crown prince Ji Yan, if nothing unexpected happens, he will successfully inherit most of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion.

But these are the meanings for people of this era. For Li Xin, it is as simple as his wife giving birth to a son for him.

His Highness, who had just given birth to a child, was extremely weak, with a pale face and no blood.

Li Xin walked in, sat by the bed, reached out and held her hand, trying to calm his voice.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mrs.

His Highness the eldest princess was exhausted at this moment. She barely opened her eyes and said, "Is it... a boy?"

Li Xin patted her palms and whispered: "It's a boy, don't worry."

The eldest princess nodded with confidence and said, "Let them carry it to me and show it."

Only then did Li Xin look back at his son who was still in his infancy. His son's face was wrinkled and his skin was red, and he didn't look very good.

However, the newborn children are like this. Li Xin has had the experience of being a father and has not made a fuss like the first time.

The eldest princess glanced at the child who was still crying and showed a bright smile on her face. She took Li Xin's hand and said, "I'm tired, sleep for a while."

Li Xin nodded.

"I'm here to accompany you."

She struggled for a few hours and was extremely tired. She closed her eyes and fell asleep. After a while, she breathed evenly and fell asleep.

Li Xin stayed by the eldest princess' bed and looked back at his son from time to time.

The news that the eldest princess gave birth to Lin'er spread throughout the Hou's Mansion soon. Zhong Xiaoxiao led Ahan to visit her younger brother, Chen Shiliu, Hui Niang and others, and they all lined up to visit the young master in the new world.

Ahan looked at his younger brother a few times and suddenly burst into tears. After hearing this, Li Xin frowned and stood up from the bed, walked to the little girl, picked her up, and said, "Why are you crying? Your mother is tired and resting."

The little girl threw herself into her father's arms, crying heart-wrenchingly.

"Dad, brother, he... is so ugly..."

Speaking of this, the three-year-old girl cried even more sadly, wiped Li Xin's tears.

Marquis Jing'an laughed silently and said helplessly: "It was like this when you were born. It will look good after a few days. It was like this when you were born before."

Xiao Ahan stopped crying, and widened his eyes in Li Xin's arms, looking at his own father with disbelief.

"I used to be like this?"

Li Xinhan nodded with a smile: "Yes, it's also wrinkled. At that time, my father was worried that you would always be like this and would not be able to get married in the future. As a result, it would be fine after a while and be clean."

The little girl was stunned for a while, then she burst into tears again, crying even more sad than before.

"Dad lied to me, that's not what I am..."

She cried and made a fuss. Li Xin had no choice but to put her on the ground, pointed at Zhong Xiaoxiao not far away, and said with a smile: "When you were born, your aunt was the first to come in and see you. Go and ask her if she looks like this?"

Xiao Ahan was sitting on the ground making trouble, but when he heard this, he immediately stood up, ran towards his aunt with his little feet, and then hugged Zhong Xiaoxiao's dress.

"Auntie."

Zhong Xiaoxiao was looking at her newly born nephew, but suddenly heard Xiao Ahan's crying sound, so she turned around and bent over to pick her up, and said with a smile: "What's wrong with Ahan?"

Xiao Ahan pounced on Zhong Xiaoxiao's arms and cried, "Dad said I was as ugly as my younger brother before..."

Zhong Xiaoxiao covered her mouth and smiled, then said seriously: "Dad is lying to you. Ahan was so beautiful when she was born, and she has never been ugly."

The little girl stopped crying, hugged Zhong Xiaoxiao's neck, and said softly: "I knew my dad was lying to others."

As she said that, she glanced at her younger brother in Zhong Xiaoxiao's arms, curled her lips and cried, "But my younger brother is so ugly..."

………………………………………

The news that the Jing'an Marquis Mansion gave birth to a Lin'er soon spread throughout the capital. Several families who had acquainted with the Pingnan Marquis Mansion immediately sent people to celebrate. The first person to visit Li Xin's house was Ye Mao, the young master of the Duke of Chen, who was in Yonglefang and was closest to the Jing'an Marquis Mansion.

Because of his military achievements in the southwest, the young master has also begun to work in the court in recent years. Now his official position is the General of the Yulin Guard, who has replaced Ye Lin and Li Xin and has become the new boss of the Yulin Guard.

However, he is different from Li Xin, who is strongly in charge of the Yulin Guard. Since he took over the Yulin Guard, he has rarely been to the Yulin Guard Camp. He is very similar to the former Yulin Guard General and his fourth uncle Ye Lin.

After the battle of the Western Expedition, Ye Mao admired his junior uncle more and more, so he often came to the Jing'an Marquis Mansion. Now that he came to the door, no one stopped him. He came to the backyard of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion and met Li Xin very smoothly.

The status of the young master is extraordinary, so Li Xin naturally wants to come out to see him in person. After seeing Ye Mao, Li Xin saw that he had a lot of things in his hand and said with a smile: "The two of us are so close to us, why do we bring things to the door? I will go to the Ye family ten times, and at least nine times empty-handed."

Ye Mao shook his big head, bowed to Li Xin first, and then smiled and said, "Uncle Master's words are wrong. When the junior brother was born, I naturally have to bring some things to see. The old man was going to come in person, but he was not in good health, so I didn't let him come out."

When Li Xin heard Ye Mao mention this, he sighed slightly.

In this world, there is no evergreen tree for thousands of years. When Old Man Ye was young, he loved to rush to kill people himself. It was unlikely that he would not have any secret injuries on his body. However, this old man had been guided by experts since he was a child and practiced an extremely powerful internal martial arts. He could be safe and sound in the capital for thirty or forty years, and he became more and more energetic as he lived. However, his years were unforgivable. As he grew older, all the secret injuries he had come to seek revenge on him.

Since the end of last year, the old man's health has become worse and worse. He has been sick several times. Li Xin often visited Duke Chen's mansion during this period, but...

Thinking of this, Li Xin sighed and said, "The family is busy these days and I haven't been able to visit the Ye family. Is Master Ye healthy?"

"good."

Ye Mao let out a breath and said softly: "Eating activities are OK, but they are indeed not as tough as before."

"The old man will be his 80th birthday next month. At that time, my father or fourth uncle will at least have one person back from Jimen Pass, and the uncle should not forget to go there."

After Ye Ming returned to Beijing from the southwest and received a reward, he returned to Jimen Pass not long after. In more than five years, he had not returned to Beijing a few times.

Li Xin nodded and said, "Don't worry, I remember it in my heart."

The young master let out a sigh and grinned at Li Xin: "Forget it, let's not talk about these things anymore. Uncle Master will take me to see my junior brother?"

Li Xin nodded and smiled.
