Inside the capital city:

"Hey, I heard some news, Lady Nie from Ning'an House has given birth!"

"Really? Is it true?"

"Would I lie to you?"

"But I heard that the Empress also went into labor today!"

"So, does that mean Nie's little prince and the royal prince have the same birthday?"

"Look, look! What is that in the sky?"

A loud exclamation drew all the people in the street to look up at the sky.

The domineering golden light that occupied half of the sky almost blinded everyone's eyes, shining brightly in the sky.

"This is a sign of heavenly blessings and auspiciousness!"

At the same time, both Ning'an House and the deep palace gave rise to women's screams and the sound of joy-spreading.

After a moment, there was some commotion at the palace gate.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty for having a young prince! The young prince is blessed and accompanied by auspicious signs since birth, and is bestowed the name Baili Longze, with the courtesy name Xuan Cang! He is to be designated as the Crown Prince from today! In celebration, a general amnesty is granted to the world, and taxes are exempted for one year!"

The sound of celebration spread all over the street from far to near.

"Our benevolent Emperor, long live, long live, forever live! May the Crown Prince live a thousand years, and thousands and thousands of years more."

...At this time in the Ning'an Mansion, Nie Chong'an was holding his newly born baby daughter, full of curiosity and fascination. Hearing the sound of people kneeling and congratulating outside, his eyes were full of disdain.

"What 'blessings as vast as the sky?' It's clear that my precious daughter is the one who brought all these auspicious signs, and that boy just got lucky by taking advantage of her good fortune."

"Master, you better not say any more, be careful of eavesdroppers."

The beautiful, pale-faced woman lying on the bed advised helplessly.

"What if they hear me? What I said is true. My little darling girl is the luckiest, don't you agree?"

The man's rough voice tried to lower its tone, wanting to sound more gentle, but it only made him seem more out of place.

The beautiful woman let out a helpless laugh.

The 'baby' that Nie Chong'an was currently holding so affectionately was actually quite confused.

Wasn't she supposed to be sleeping in the big devil's palace? How did she suddenly become a baby? And one whose eyes couldn't even open properly?

She wanted to ask, but couldn't make any sound other than loud, incoherent babbling.

"Ah! Our good baby is speaking! Surely she is my precious daughter. Listen to her sweet, delicate voice! It's so lovely! Our baby must be calling her dad's name, right? So well behaved, knowing to bond with daddy at such a young age. Our baby will definitely have the best relationship with her dad in the future!”

"I think we should name our baby Jiaojiao! Nie Jiaojiao! It sounds like a very blessed name!" Overjoyed Nie Chong'an decided on the baby's name right away.

"Ah." Nie Jiaojiao squeezed out a sound, which she was previously called as well.

"Ah, Jiaojiao understood daddy's words and seems to like her name too. So, it's all settled!"

It seemed as if to respond to Nie Chongming, the tightly closed door was accompanied by 'bang, bang, bang' knocks.

"Dad, dad, open the door quickly!"

"Open the door quickly!"

"We want to see our little sister too!"

"See our little sister, see our little sister…"

Hearing the noisy sounds outside the room, Nie Chong'an's mood instantly turned sour. Those five little brats outside were all trying to snatch his precious daughter away from him!

"Don't shout, or your old man's darling might be disturbed, and I'll twist your heads off!"

Nie Chong'an warned in a low voice.

Nie Jiaojiao: ……

What a threat of twisting heads off, the man holding her must be especially mighty! For the first time, Nie Jiaojiao looked forward to the environment she was in now.

In the following conversations, Nie Jiaojiao finally figured out the environment she was in.
