About half a month later, the Qian Family began the gradual move to North Country. With substantial holdings in the Great Wu Dynasty, it certainly wasn’t an easy task to relocate to North Country overnight; the Qian Family’s move would take several months.

However, Qian Dahai didn’t focus his efforts on the move. He had already taken some family members and set off swiftly on horseback for North Country.

Meanwhile.

In North Country, at the North Prince Mansion.

Today was the day Zhou Xiaoxiao was due to give birth. Lying in bed, she was calm and collected with Lu Chen sitting beside her. Zhou Xiaoxiao felt no urgency whatsoever.

She’d already heard from her sister about her experience giving birth last time. As long as the Prince was by their side, they wouldn’t experience any pain during childbirth, and within an instant, the child would be born. Thus, Zhou Xiaoxiao was very relaxed.

Still, she had a nagging worry. She feared giving birth to another daughter. Although Lu Chen’s affection for his daughters was well-known, deep inside, she couldn’t overcome a personal barrier. After all, in this era, her mind had been steeped in the idea of prioritizing male heirs, and changing such a mindset wasn’t easy.

At that moment, Lu Chen stroked Zhou Xiaoxiao’s cheek and smiled, “Xiaoxiao, no need to be nervous, it will be over soon.”

Zhou Xiaoxiao also revealed a hint of a smile, “With the Prince here, your consort isn’t nervous.”

No sooner had Zhou Xiaoxiao spoken than a pained expression suddenly crossed her face and her complexion turned ashen.

Seeing this, Lu Chen didn’t hesitate to use the Rejuvenating Skill on Zhou Xiaoxiao.

Soon after, just as when Lu Chen helped Zhou Youyou give birth last time, his spiritual power entered Zhou Xiaoxiao’s body and the gentle spiritual power wrapped around the child in her womb.

Quickly after, the infant slid out from Zhou Xiaoxiao’s body. In the next moment, the room echoed with the child’s tearing cries as the midwife and maids hurried to bathe the baby and cut the umbilical cord.

Feeling considerably lightened, Zhou Xiaoxiao was a bit dazed. Although she had heard from her sister how easy childbirth was with the Prince present, this was her first experience. She didn’t expect it to be so effortless, the baby really born in an instant.

Lu Chen continued to treat Zhou Xiaoxiao, and a short while later, the midwife approached him with the child and said, “Congratulations, Prince, it’s a son.”

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoxiao, lying on the bed, let out a sigh of relief. Thankfully, it was a boy this time.

Lu Chen then took the infant boy from the midwife’s hands and placed him beside Zhou Xiaoxiao. Before she could ask about a name, he said, “From today on, your name will be Lu Zi’an.”

The infant boy, originally crying loudly, suddenly fell silent upon hearing Lu Chen’s words, even smiling.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaoxiao said contentedly, “Prince, An’er seems to like the name you picked too. Look, he stopped crying as soon as he heard it.”

Lu Chen smiled but didn’t reveal the real reason. Lu Zi’an had stopped crying not because of his name, but because Lu Chen had used the Rejuvenating Skill to calm him.

The infant’s skin was still rather sensitive. As soon as he felt the gentle spiritual power, Lu Zi’an felt incredibly comfortable and therefore stopped crying, instead showing a smile.

Of course, these were trivial matters. There was no need for Lu Chen to voice them out. At that moment, he was more interested in what reward the system would bestow upon him.

This was his sixth child. The system had once mentioned that the more children he had, the richer the reward could potentially be.

He wondered what the system would reward him with this time.

While Lu Chen was thinking this, a system notification chimed in his ear.

[Congratulations to the host for gaining an heir. Reward: two Master Level Military Generals, one hundred thousand soldiers proficient in aquatic operations, with a bonus reward of six hundred thousand civilians.]

Surprised by the reward, Lu Chen paused. He hadn’t expected to be rewarded with a population again.

However, considering his current situation, the hundred thousand soldiers proficient in water didn’t seem to have much immediate use. It was the Land Power Era, after all, where wars mostly occurred on land, with few opportunities to employ a Navy.

Nevertheless, since the system had rewarded him, it was best to accept it.

Afterward, Lu Chen set that matter aside. He spent some more time with Zhou Xiaoxiao until she had fully recovered, then left her room and went to his study alone.

Arriving at his study, Lu Chen immediately opened the system to review the rewards.

“System, where are these hundred thousand soldiers and six hundred thousand civilians now?”

[These seven hundred thousand individuals have been given the identity of Great Shang Adherents and are currently located on an island in the eastern sea of North Country called Wind Cloud Island.]

The sea?

No wonder the system mentioned their proficiency in water.

Lu Chen continued to ask, “Are the Master Level Military Generals granted as rewards also on Wind Cloud Island?”

[Yes, those two Grandmasters lead that military force.]

[The host has one opportunity to issue a direct command. Would you like to issue an order?]

Lu Chen responded without hesitation, “Have them bring some soldiers to North Country immediately. There’s no need for everyone to come, just a few thousand will suffice; the rest can stay quartered on Wind Cloud Island.”
