Chapter 299: Chapter 263: William and Anna Miller_2
Huh~
Arthur finally let out a sigh of relief, his slightly nervous heart finally calmed down, asking, "May I go in and see them?"
The female doctor hesitated for a momt but quickly responded, "Of course, Your Majesty."
Without any hesitation, Arthur strode into the delivery room.
Although the Royal Personal Hospital took up only one floor of the eastern part of the Royal Palace, it had over a hundred wards and more than a doz specialized operating rooms.
This room, where Que Mary was, was specifically prepared for the royal family members, with all the items being the best in the world, costing a fortune.
On the hospital bed, Arthur finally saw the pale Que Mary and the two little ones in the wood baby beds beside her.
"You\'ve worked hard, Mary!" Arthur walked up, gtly wiping the sweat from Que Mary\'s forehead with a silk scarf, said.
Que Mary glanced at Arthur and the two childr beside her with a soft gaze, nodding with a smile.
As Arthur turned to pick up the babies, Princess Louise and Duchess Elizabeth each picked them up instead.
Arthur\'s hand froze in mid-air for a momt, ultimately choosing to hold hands with Que Mary.
"You\'ve worked hard, Mary."
Princess Louise came forward with a baby in her arms, smiling and speaking tderly and earnestly to Mary.
"Not hard at all, Mother. It\'s my duty to continue the royal family, hav\'t you and Arthur be taking care of me for a long time too?" Mary shook her head with a smile, replying.
Unlike the intrigues of other royal families, the atmosphere displayed by the Australasian royal family was warm and affectionate.
Of course, it also had to do with the fact that the currt royal family was not very large. After all, the currt royal family was esstially one family, and the atmosphere was certainly warmer than that of a huge royal family.
Not long after, the news of Que Mary giving birth to a prince and princess quickly spread from the royal palace. Of course, without Arthur\'s permission, such news couldn\'t have spread.
Ev telegrams were st from Sydney to various parts of the world, with most of the countries that had previously st telegrams of congratulations receiving the news.
Naturally, various countries st congratulatory telegrams, and Arthur finally had the mood to respond one by one, although the responses came only on the second day.
Worth mtioning was the fact that ev at three in the morning, Australasian printing factories were still brightly lit.
Not only the two newspapers of the Royal Financial Group, the Victoria Newspaper and the Australasia Daily, but also private newspapers throughout the country, were urgtly printing this good news.
Regardless of whether doing so conformed to the politically correct theme, according to the attitude of the Australasian people at the momt, the number of people concerned about Que Mary in Australasia definitely exceeded two million.
This also meant that ev if they were pursuing their private interests by following the printing of newspapers, they would make a fortune.
Unfortunately, they lacked photos of the babies and their specific names; otherwise, the newspapers would sell ev more explosively, far surpassing other newspapers.
But naming was not too big a problem; without Arthur\'s permission, it would be impossible for baby photos to leak out. Whether it was the royal guards or the maids and servants, they were all under the strict supervision of the Royal Security Intelligce Agcy.
This was also the reason for Arthur\'s confidce, as it would be impossible to step into the royal palace without suring absolute loyalty.
After the birth of the childr, finding names for the little ones became a headache for Arthur.
There was a high repetition rate of names in Western countries, but choosing a unique name seemed strange.
Names of Western nobility oft resembled their father\'s or were from Western historical stories.
For example, Arthur, his name was similar to his father, Duke Arthur, the only differce being a word in the middle of the name.
Arthur originally wanted to consult Princess Louise and Que Mary for advice, but both of them decided that he should handle naming the childr himself because of the importance of names.
It also served to remind Arthur that he couldn\'t be careless about naming his childr, as the little prince would become his currt heir, and the little princess would be his only daughter; their names must be giv strong political significance.
Arthur was born into the British Royal Family with strong British ancestry, while Que Mary was born into the Russian monarchy, a guine Russian.
This meant that the names of the little prince and princess should either be influced by British or Russian style.
But leaning towards either style would also affect the political direction in Australasia; it could also be se by other countries as an indication of Australasia\'s closess to a particular country.
Ev if Arthur named his eldest son with a Russian style, the British would certainly be dissatisfied.
After all, both Australasia and Arthur were the product of the British Empire, so naming an heir with a Russian style obviously distanced the country from the British Empire.
After a long headache, Arthur finally settled on the names for the two little ones.
The eldest son was named William Alexander, and the eldest daughter was named Anna, one with the British style, and one with the Russian style.
If their names included Arthur\'s own name, the full names of the two childr would be William Alexander Conrad Saxe-Coburg-Gotha and Anna Conrad Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.
As for the religious beliefs of the two little ones, they would naturally follow the English Protestantism that was practiced by the royal family and the majority of the Australasian people.
Of course, after the complete separation from the English Protestant Association, it would be more appropriate to call the currt religion in Australasia "Australasian Protestantism."
Actually, Arthur could name the childr Arthur to symbolize their heir status, but he didn\'t quite adapt to the idea of his offspring having the same name as him; wouldn\'t such a name be confusing?
Primogiture gerally had to be maintained, unless the eldest son was truly raised as a waste.
But giv the currt royal family and governmt\'s atttion to William, the likelihood of him becoming a waste was slim, if not xistt.
After finalizing the names of the two little ones, Arthur directly announced them through the two newspapers, and once again had the Royal Relief Committee organize another free distribution evt.
At the same time, in celebration, Arthur planned to begin a nationwide inspection and tour of Australasia; of course, it wouldn\'t exclude a leisurely purpose as well.
After all, staying in the palace for half a year had indeed be boring, and it was time to go out and relax.
