Long Yang blanked out when he heard those words and did not react for quite a while.
Meanwhile, a look of delight appeared on all the officials' faces when they heard the palace maid's announcement. When they saw His Majesty not reacting at all, one of the officials thought he must not have heard the palace maid. He quickly said, "Your Majesty, Her Highness is about to give birth."
Long Yang turned around slowly to stare at him. "What did you say?"
When the official saw Long Yang's reaction, the first thought that came to his mind was, 'Oh no, did His Majesty lose his mind out of joy? What should we do?'
He began to speak with additional care, "I was informing you that Her Highness is about to give birth."
Long Yang nodded and replied with a grunt.
It was quite a normal reaction.
