Extra Chapter One
「In the Fifth Year of Peace.」
Upon entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, one would see servants rushing about. All the servants in the mansion wore expressions of anxiety, for today, the Prime Minister's wife was due to give birth! For this reason, the Prime Minister had even taken a day off.
Outside the delivery room, Qiao Muchen paced anxiously back and forth by the door. From within the room, Zhao Zhitong's agonized screams could be heard, each more heart-wrenching than the last.
Is giving birth this painful? Qiao Muchen finally couldn't bear it any longer and rushed to the delivery room door, banging on it and shouting, "Why is she screaming so loudly? Tongtong, Tongtong, are you okay?"
Immediately, Zhao Zhitong screamed back, "Ah! You ask if I'm all right? This is all your fault!"
Qiao Muchen's forehead was slick with sweat. "Yes, yes, it's all my fault, all my fault," he stammered. "It's so painful, maybe... maybe we shouldn't have the baby?"
