Chapter 195： New life

After Edel signed the list of military observation missions, he didn't work long. At the moment when the sun was about to set, a guard hurriedly broke into the crown prince's office.

Before he had time to ask, the guard said. "The crown prince was unwell just now. Dr. Rodsk has already checked that this is the crown prince about to give birth."

The guard's words made Edel ignorant of work, and he asked nervously. "Where is my wife now?"

Facing the crown prince’s inquiry, the guard replied. "His Royal Highness, now the crown prince has been placed in the delivery room."

After hearing the guard's words, Edel quickly left his office and hurried to the delivery room. The delivery room for Sophie Marie’s delivery was ready in June. This is a very well-positioned room with a view of the morning sun and the garden outside the window.

When Edel arrived outside the delivery room, he heard the painful cry of his wife Sophie Marie. Her mother, Queen Elizabeth, also arrived at this time. She saw Edel who was already standing here and said to him. "I'll go in and have a look, you and my father are waiting here."

After speaking, the mother entered the delivery room, leaving Edel to watch the medical staff coming in and out.

At this time, Carol I was also supported by Viscount Adli, and the crown prince stepped forward to support his father. Persuaded softly. "Father, your health is not good, why did you come here like this."

Carol I, supported by Edel, is in a very good spirit despite his poor body. He spoke in a hearty tone. "I want to see my little grandson born with my own eyes and hear his first cry."

After hearing the wishes of Carol I, Edel helped his father to wait on the bench outside the door. This time my father was in a bad health after returning from vacation at Peres Palace. At the beginning of this month, even walking needs help, which makes Edel feel that his father has run out of time. Now Carol I can't ask about current affairs at all. Now his only wish is to see his grandson born with his own eyes.

After he settled down with his father, Edel waited anxiously outside the delivery room. From the delivery room, his wife Sophie Marie's shout was heard, making Edel restless and could only move back and forth to relieve stress.

Queen Elizabeth walked out soon, and Edel saw a stride walking over and asked. "Mother, how is the situation inside"

Seeing the anxious but son, Queen Elizabeth talked about it in the voice of someone who came over. "Where can it be so fast now, it takes at least two to three hours. But I asked Dr. Rodsk, and she said that the fetus is currently in a good position and she believes it can be delivered smoothly."

Hearing his mother's comfort made Edel feel at ease, at least it is good news for now. So he was at ease with his parents at the door waiting for his wife to give birth to the first three generations of the Romanian royal family.

They didn't wait long, and Prime Minister Bretianu also brought many nobles. A group of people saw the king's family outside the door, so they also waited quietly by the side. Only a few nobles and heads of people can come forward and speak to the king's family.

The days of the nobles in Romania can still pass, but their political influence has been declining after decades of suppression by Carol and his sons. However, relying on the process of Romania's industrialization, it barely recovered some economic losses.

And there is no influence at all in the army, especially in 1905, the actions of Earl Fernschule and others caused the influence of the nobles in the army to be suppressed. The generals who can now hold power in the army are all loyal to the royal family. Others such as democrats have also been eliminated from the army. So the current Romanian army has completely become an armed force controlled by the royal family.

Prime Minister Bretianu stepped forward and whispered after seeing the fidgeting crown prince. "His Royal Highness, please rest assured, I believe that God will bless the crown prince and concubine to give birth to the child."

To the Prime Minister’s comfort, Edel turned his head and answered casually. "Thank you, Prime Minister, for your concern. It is impossible for me to calm down now. After all, this is my first child."

He also understands the performance of the crown prince very well, knowing that his first child was not better than Edel when he was born, he was still fidgeting.

After persuading the crown prince, the prime minister did not continue to say a word. He came to advise only to do his duty as a minister. After speaking, he stood by and waited for the birth of the child.

A group of people listened to the cry of the crown prince and concubine, all quietly waiting for the birth of the child. But just like to keep everyone waiting, the child in Sophie Marie's womb was reluctant to meet everyone. A group of people waited in the evening until the lights were brightly lit at night.

The news that the crown prince and concubine was giving birth was also spread all over the streets of Bucharest. So today there is a spectacular scene. The streets are full of people waiting for news, and most of the vehicles on the road also stop on the road. They all looked in the direction of the palace and were waiting for news of the birth of the crown prince. Many citizens also spontaneously prayed for the crown prince and her objection to the child, so that God would bless the mother and child.

It seems that the scene of my birth is grand enough. At 10:12 in the evening, with Sophie Marie's heart-piercing cry, followed by the cry of a baby, everyone who was standing outside the delivery room breathed a sigh of relief. In this era, childbirth is still a barrier for mothers and children, and Edel is waiting for Dr. Rodsk to bring him good news.

As expected, the people outside the delivery room did not wait for a long time. Dr. Rodsk came out and said to the crown prince within two minutes. "Congratulations, your mother and son are safe."

After hearing the news, Edel felt in his heart that he had left his blood in this world, and he had integrated into this world.

Edel pushed aside the crowd around him congratulating him, strode into the delivery room. He saw Sophie Marie, who was still lying on the bed, who was rejuvenating. He walked over to wipe the sweat from his wife's forehead, and said affectionately. "Thanks, Sophie."

Sophie Marie who was comforted by her husband replied This is what I should do. "

After speaking, she looked at her child who was held by the medical staff. The female nurse was also very sensible and quickly carried the baby to Sophie Marie. "Your Majesty, you see how cute he is."

Sophie Marie looked at her child and smiled, and Edel also looked at her son and felt that life was happy and fulfilling.

"Where is my grandson, I want to see him."

Before the Edels felt happy for long, Queen Elizabeth walked over and hugged her grandson from the nurse. Immediately afterwards, was King Carol, who was supported by the palace chief.

The old king looked at his grandson held by his wife and said happily. "My little grandson is so cute, just like Edel was born."

Carol I told Edel after watching his grandson. "My grandson's name is. Friedrich Victor Albert von Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen."

Edel knew this was the name his father was worried about not attending the baptism of his grandson, so he prepared the name in advance. So he repeated it seriously. "Yes, my son is called Friedrich Victor Albert von Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen."

So the new born little prince was called Prince Victor.

Carol I was very happy to hear that, and he told the palace chief beside him. "Let people ring a bell to tell the subjects that the royal family has a little prince."

"Your Majesty, I have asked someone to do it."

At this time, the bells of the palace rang, and then the cathedrals also rang. This was to inform the subjects that the child was born.
