The Beloved Imperial Consort

Chapter 58

Chapter 58

Mu Xi Yao was pressed down by Zhong Zheng Lin. After helping him relieve once, the man finally let her off the hook reluctantly. With a crimson face, she cleaned her hands.

"Your Highness, have you given little guy one a name?" In the private, Mu Xi Yao preferred more the endearment little bun. However, the sixth Highness certainly wouldn't agree. As a result, she could only call him a little guy for the time being.

As soon as Zhong Zheng Lin heard her mention this matter, his complexion immediately turned bad. This morning, the old man had passed a message that he will personally grace tomorrow's bathing ceremony. He even had come up with the name of his firstborn son. When the time arrives, he will bestow the name before the guests who came to pay a visit.

Zhong Zheng Lin has guessed bits and piece of what's the old man was up to. However, he was really unhappy that he made a big deal of his son's name.

In the case he wasn't satisfied with the bestowed name, he would have no other choice than to thank for the grace. How could it compare to the name both he and Mu Xi Yao reached after the discussion?

Besides, this would put Mu Xi Yao and their son at the place where the wind and the waves are the fiercest. Not mentioning those brothers of his who would be dissatisfied. Even the womenfolk from each estate would definitely feel uncomfortable inwardly.

Mu Xi Yao, seeing him crease his brows, thought it was another taboo, "Could it be the child has to reach one year of age before he can be officially named?"

She has been in Great Wei only for two-three years. During the time, she had never come into contact with matters concerning children. She had heard that at some places they would officially record the child to the lineage book only after the child turns one year old.

"There's no such practice. But generally, people would wait till the child is one hundred days old." Zhong Zheng Lin helped her change her posture so that she could speak while leaning comfortably against his chest.

"This time, it's different with our son. Tomorrow, the old man will personally bestow the name." Seeing Mu Xi Yao failing to understand the meaning behind, Zhong Zheng Lin stroked her hair and encircled the person into his arms, telling her in detail the story about the crown prince's firstborn son.

Mu Xi Yao frowned as she listened. Even the crown prince's firstborn son had been bestowed a name on his one hundred day celebration. Yet, the first thing little bun was forced to do tomorrow was to attract the other's envy?

Based on the crown prince's chicken gut and intolerant nature, it was unlikely he won't bear a grudge.

Seeing her face turn cold, Zhong Zheng Lin hugged her, his gaze profound. The two snuggled up to each other, uttering no words for a very long time.

Inside the heart, Mu Xi Yao took note of Yuencheng Emperor. In passing, she has also placed the crown prince on her blacklist. She has decided to look for opportunities and assist her man in taking out that narrow-minded, violent and unreliable crown prince.

With a decision in mind, she let this matter go and continued to think about her son's name. This was a big thing in one's lifetime. If the name was too appalling or too terrific, she would rather call the little guy with a courtesy name that she chooses for him. Otherwise, no one could stand having to hear the name one disliked on a daily basis.

"Your Highness is in line to "Zheng" character. What's the character for the imperial grandson's generation?" Mu Xi Yao asked her professional consultant.

Zhong Zheng Lin didn't know whether to cry or laugh. He pinched her cheeks while pretending to be fierce.

Mu Xi Yao was fond of reading books and have accumulated abundant knowledge through them. He didn't expect she would be so negligent.
