Rebirth Of A Dragon God 5 Preparation For Her Child!

Looking down, she showed a gleeful smile. "A child huh? That's not too bad." Running her finger in a circle around her belly she said, "You'll have to be obedient, ok?"

Her voice was low and sweet; full of love that she herself had never expected to feel.

"Your mommy never had her own mommy, so you'll have to forgive my mistakes ok? But don't worry, this mommy won't abandon you." The more she thought about having a child, the giddier she got. She was sure she would make a great mother; after all, as long as she takes note of all the things she missed from life, and fulfilled those for her child, she would have done the job of a good mother.

For the rest of the ride, she whispered sweet nothings to the child she didn't even realize was actively listening to her.

Slightly dejected, Shenlong thought to himself, 'that really sweet and touching, but you're mistaking your role…'

The girls outside her palanquin were listening to the Empresses words with giddy little smiles on their faces. 'Very soon there will be a little empress running around for use to dote on,' they thought to themselves. Never would they expect that this very child would grow to be the terror of all women!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Back at the palace, the Empress was bundled up in coats and blankets while lying in her luxurious bed. Although she knows virtually nothing about pregnancy and childbirth, she knows enough to know that her baby was in an extremely vulnerable state. Even just the cold of the palace would be enough to harm her most beloved.

"Yu'er!" She shouted, causing a pair of feet to scurry towards her door.

"Yes, Empress?!"

"I've decided not to attend the tournament this year. I can't risk anything happening to my baby so I'll be staying here. Take three elders and an ancestor with you. Just tell them it's on my orders. Also tell them not the leak my pregnancy to anyone. Once those nasty old men find out, they'll probably band together to march on us and harm my baby."

"Ah! Yes Empress!"

"Oh, and when you're there, buy as many books on babies and childbirth and like, as you can."

"Yes!"

"Ok, you can go now. After you do as I've asked, take the day off."

"Yes, my Empress, as you say!" With that, her little feet padded off.

Sitting in silence, the Empress once again began rubbing her stomach beneath the heavy covers. For several hours, she talked to her beloved as if it were the only thing in this world for her.

Four weeks later:

Yu'er, the elders and the ancestor came back after the tournament. Only Yu'er was allowed into the Empresses room, thus the elders and ancestor went back to their normal activities.

As such, Yu'er showed up quite dejected with a cart of books and baby materials behind her.

"Empress," she greeted with a bow.

"h.e.l.lo Yu'er," the empress replied with a smile. "I see the tournament was slightly disappointing."

"Ah yes," Yu'er said with a tight smile. "Emperors Jidong, Huang, and Tu were quite upset with you not showing yourself. While all three proposed to you again, they also demanded ten of our finest girls for each of their sons; totaling to 320 girls."

With a sneer the empress snorted, "and what of it? These fools really are dull. I'm someone they really can't afford to offend, yet they constantly pull the same actions like this is some bad play. Give them no reply. Silence speaks louder than words, I hear they say."

"En," Yu'er nodded as she studied her toes. "I did as her Empress asked, and bought everything they said was needed for a baby," pointing towards everything behind her.

The empress's eyes immediately lit up, as she hurriedly pushed her sluggish body into a standing position. "Great! Tell me everything!" The empress's eyes were shining like gems, stupefying Yu'er.

"Yes," with that, yu'er pulled out two bundles of books on babies and childbirth. "These are everything they had about giving birth your majesty!"

Nodding enthusiastically, the empress greedily s.n.a.t.c.hed the books away. Hugging them close to her bosom, she peered at the other things behind Yu'er.

Nodding to this yu'er continued, "I was told that toys were very important for babies, so they need things that will hold their attention yet won't hurt them. Things like this rocking horse that can move and look interesting. Other things like these rattles that make noise. They also like chewing on things, but you cant let them swallow anything…"

Yu'er rambled on as she introduced every item bought to the enthusiastic empress. Very quickly the empress had everything in her room, and felt no reservations towards throwing the dejected Yu'er out.

Quickly, she pulled the piles of books over towards the lit fireplace she recently had built and sat down, pulling a thick blanket over her belly.

For several hours, she sat flipping pages to the books as the fire crackled on. Every once and a while she would nod, or utter: "oh." Then she might gasp. Other times she would giggle, and feel giddy.

She learned very much from these books. First of all, all the problems she experienced previously were very common in pregnant women. She was very pleased to read this, knowing that her baby was on the right track.

She also learned that the discharge from her b.r.e.a.s.t.s was absolutely normal, and it's called breast milk; an essential part of making sure her baby was healthy.

One book even had detailed ill.u.s.trations of babies which shocked her. "So cuuute!" she squealed, rocking to the side. On the left page was a baby girl, and to the right was a baby boy. She was especially attentive towards the baby boy.

The little thing between his legs puzzled her. "So what is that? Is that what makes a man a man? Hehe, it's so cute though! Why are men so disgusting if they have cute things like these hidden?"

She of course knew that men were different than women physically, but she didn't know the exact specifics.

The only part that scared her was the description of childbirth, and the pain to expect. Apparently, no amount of cultivation can negate this pain.
