Zombie Princess (Author: 九天画糖 ) COMPLETED

Chapter 44

On the day of the full moon feast, there was a lot of traffic in front of the King of War Mansion, and the people who came to congratulate him were endless.

Of course, attending the full moon banquet was an opportunity to show their support to the King of War.

Among the several princes, the two most likely to take the Emperor position were the King of War and Wang Zhao. Now the King of War had a son while Wang Zhao only had a few daughters and no son yet, so his chances for taking over the throne increased.

Hence, people were more biased towards the King of War.

"The Prime Minister's House came to congratulate-"

When the chanter announced that, everyone on the scene froze for a moment.

Many people murmured in their hearts. They had heard that the princess was taken away on the same day the concubine gave birth to the baby. The princess of War had not been found, but the King of War couldn't wait to celebrate his child's birth. It seemed that the child's status far exceeded the Princess of War's.

What would the Prime Minister think of all this?

But Luo Yiren, who gave birth to the child, was also from the Prime Minister's House. So the child was also the Prime Minister's grandson.

Who knew that it would be the opposite!

When the governor of the king's palace presented the list of gifts that came from the prime minister's palace, the King of War smiled.

As a child's grandparents' family, the Prime minister had sent a sword! What did it mean?

The King of War was thinking about it, and suddenly a subordinate rushed to him, "Wang Ye, His Majesty has arrived! Go ahead to greet him."

The King of War stood up from his chair at once. It was his baby's 'Xi San/Three wash*' day.

He thought that the Emperor would at best send some rewards, but he didn't expect him to visit his mansion!

However, this also showed that the Emperor favored him. It was good for his subsequent plans.

The ministers who came to celebrate were also surprised by the sudden arrival of the Emperor.

But then they wondered if the Emperor's move had some profound meaning.

After the banquet officially started, the protagonist of the ceremony arrived.

The baby was wrapped in a thick cloth and had grown a lot this month. His features appeared quite clear, especially his big, watery, and dark eyes.

The Emperor took a closer look. His affection overflowed, and he hugged him.

Although this was a normal interaction between a grandfather and a grandchild, with the Emperor's identity, this move brought a different feeling in everyone's eyes.

Wang Zhao looked at this scene with a smile on his face, but the fist under his sleeve was squealing. No one noticed it because all the eyes were on the amusing scene.

But he was still angry.

The Emperor teased the child with his fingers, smiled, and asked, "What's his name?"

As soon as the King of War heard it, he seized the opportunity and said, "I call him Mochi(rice cake), but he has not been named yet. If Father Emperor could give the boy a name, it would be his blessing."

The Emperor said, "Just call him Yuan Zhen. If I remember correctly, this generation happens to follow the Yuan."

(Yuan: indicate the origin of all things in the heavens and earth. Chinese currency also called Yuan)

As soon as this word came out, everyone was shocked.

Did his Majesty want to pass his throne to the King of War?

This was no longer implied but rather explicit.

Everyone had different thoughts, and subconsciously they glanced at Wang Zhao.

Wang Zhao couldn't keep the smile on his face.

Unlike Wang Zhao, the King of War was proud but tried to suppress the impulse to laugh. He thanked the Emperor.

When he raised his face, the housekeeper near him exclaimed, "Wang Ye, your face-"

The Emperor was startled and almost threw the child in his arms. The Emperor looked frightened.

The King of Warsaw, everyone staring at his face in horror. The King of War rushed to the copper basin that had been used for 'three wash' of the child. When he looked in, he saw that his face was squirming and changing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

But after a few breaths, it completely changed.

Not to mention the others, even the King of War, was scared.

What exactly was going on?

Suddenly, he thought of a possibility, and there was a flash of murderous intent in his eyes.
