Cining Palace.
The hastily prepared delivery room was naturally not as comfortable as the one prepared earlier, but no one cared about that at the moment.
After all, she was the eldest prince's wife, and she was of a different generation from the other concubines present. It would be unreasonable for her to just wait here. Therefore, except for the two imperial concubines who were there to keep the order and the proper mother-in-law, Concubine Hui, the other ladies returned to their respective palaces. The empress dowager sighed and went to the back hall to wait for news of her granddaughter-in-law's birth, saying that she wanted to recite a sutra for the Buddha.
Ruizhu was smart. Following Yunxiu's instructions, she invited all the imperial doctors on duty, and the midwife and wet nurse also hurried to their positions.
Intermittent cries of pain rang out. After taking the pulse through the gauze curtain, the imperial physician's expression became a little serious. They discussed in low voices for a few breaths, prepared prescriptions for pregnancy-preserving and labor-inducing drugs, and then someone cupped his hands and reported: "The bleeding has gradually stopped, but... the first wife is depressed and may have a difficult delivery."
There were some things they didn't say. The first wife was weak and thin, not as energetic as before, and she was born prematurely, so this time she was afraid it would be difficult and might hurt her body. Fortunately, it was not her first child, and she had accumulated experience before, which was a blessing in disguise.
The imperial doctors thought to themselves that something had happened to the First Concubine in the Cining Palace, and it was during the lively New Year's Eve. It must have been a sudden situation, and it must have been related to the harem, but now was not the time for them to be curious.
Talk less, listen less, and watch less, after all, human life is at stake!
As soon as the word "difficult labor" came out, Concubine Wen sighed softly, Yun Xiu's face darkened slightly, and Concubine Hui's expression changed drastically.
She took a deep breath and said sternly: "I order you to keep the mother and child safe and not to hurt my grandson! Otherwise..."
The sound sounded like it could threaten someone's life. An imperial physician shuddered when he heard it and nodded in agreement.
Concubine Wen was so angry that she almost laughed. Listen, mother and child are safe, my grandson? Will I have to keep the child later
After Mingzhu's death, Nara became more and more paranoid and confused. As time went on, she didn't know that a disaster was about to happen. The first wife had spotting and had a difficult delivery... Who caused all this? If the emperor and the empress dowager knew about it, how could they forgive her
The eldest prince can't escape either.
The mother and son are both equally confused!
Concubine Wen pinched her brows and frowned, "Concubine Hui, the imperial physician will do his best. There is no need to intimidate me like this. You've said too much."
Concubine Hui's face darkened and she wanted to say something, but Yunxiu was too impatient to get involved with her.
"You have no sense of guilt and only cause trouble. It's unfortunate to have a mother-in-law like you." She flicked her armor and said coldly, "Come here, 'invite' Concubine Hui out, serve her tea and water, after all, the delivery room is filthy and it is inevitable that her precious body will be dirty."
This is the Cining Palace, and the power of Concubine Yi is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Nanny Dong winked at the palace maids, who hesitated for a while, and then swarmed up and politely "invited" Concubine Hui to leave the inner room.
Concubine Hui was so angry that her face turned blue and her eyebrows were raised. This was rebellious! The person lying inside was her daughter-in-law. Is there any law in the world
Irgen Jueluo was pregnant again, and all the concubines in the palace wanted to see her. The first time she gave birth to a princess, she was ridiculed by many people, saying that she was wishful thinking and that she was not destined to be the eldest grandson of the emperor. Now that she finally had the chance to be proud, how could she allow Concubine Wen and Concubine Yi to do something behind her back
"I will ask the Emperor to make the decision..."
The personal maid who served Concubine Hui also shouted, "You little bitch! You pushed our queen, can you bear the consequences?"
There was a lot of noise and chaos outside, but suddenly, they fell silent as if the pause button was pressed.
Then he knelt down with a trembling voice: "Your Highness."
"What's the fuss?" Kangxi glanced at Huifei, whose clothes were disheveled, and his expression was indistinguishable. After that, he patiently asked again: "What's the fuss?"
People with a keen sense of smell sensed that a storm was coming, and they prostrated themselves on the ground, not daring to speak. At this moment, Yinzhi strode in with red eyes, and even forgot to greet Concubine Hui. His mind and eyes were full of his wife, Irgen Gioro, who was suffering.
"Yinzhi." Seeing him rushing into the delivery room, Concubine Hui became anxious, "You are such a fool, is that a place you can enter?"
"Mother." He was too tired to reply, and just said in a daze, "There is a screen behind, so it's okay for my son to talk to her."
The boss looks like this...
The prince and the princes gradually realized that something was wrong.
He looked like he had lost his soul. He didn't seem like the kind of person who would favor his concubine over his wife. So why would he mention his concubine when his wife was seriously ill
Kangxi slowly turned his jade ring and interrupted Concubine Hui's words of persuasion: "Let him go." Then he asked: "Where are Concubine Wen and Concubine Yi?"
Concubine Hui could only force a smile and say yes. Then her eyes turned red as she softly replied, "Your Majesty, the two imperial concubines are both inside. I was so worried that I just told the imperial physician to do his duty faithfully. As a result... I was driven out by Imperial Concubine Yi..."
The prince immediately sneered.
"My sister-in-law is suffering in there, and Concubine Hui still has the leisure to offer her some sympathy. She is truly a loving mother."
Concubine Hui was suddenly choked. It was not right to say anything, nor was it right to not say anything. She saw that the emperor had already turned his sleeves and left. She was so angry that she bit her gums, but she could do nothing.
***
When the thick curtain was opened, a faint smell of blood wafted to the nose. The eldest prince trembled all over, felt his steps floating, and his heart was not his own.
Suddenly there was a scream, so shrill that he almost collapsed to the ground, and immediately shouted, "Fujin!"
A maid and a midwife were standing behind the screen, and a group of imperial doctors were waiting outside the screen; Imperial Concubine Wen and Imperial Concubine Yi were also there, and they all looked at him when they heard what was happening.
Yun Xiu's frown relaxed a bit, thinking that he still had some conscience.
"Talk to your wife, don't let her fall asleep." She whispered, "Giving birth is like going through the gates of hell, not to mention that depression is a sign of difficult labor. If she falls asleep, I'm afraid she will never wake up again..."
The moment the eldest prince opened his mouth, the eldest lady's consciousness, which had been scattered due to the severe pain, gradually returned to her consciousness. Her dry eyes suddenly became sore and tears flowed down her face.
After hearing Yun Xiu's words, the eldest prince froze in place as if struck by lightning.
I am so depressed that I can never wake up again...
He clenched his hands tightly, and for a long time he suppressed his weakness in his legs. With red eyes, he said in a hoarse voice: "Fujin! You can rest assured that I am here."
The words and anger that were held back in the past can no longer be stopped once the floodgates are opened.
He began to babble, talking about whatever came to his mind, and eventually he choked up and didn't even know what he was saying: "I... shouldn't have moved out of the main courtyard, and I shouldn't have been angry with you. Who told you to look down on me?... But you were so cruel and never sent anyone to ask me to come. Guoguo is still waiting for mother! The child is weak, it's okay, whether it's a boy or a girl, I can raise him. He won't lack a bite of food... You must not sleep, and you must not abandon me..."
The panic and heartache that suddenly surged up was extremely sticky, tightly gripping his heart. His heart was beating and twitching, almost reaching the critical point. Yinzhi thought vaguely, even if his wish came true, what would be the point if he didn't have Fu Jin to accompany him
Not only the imperial physician, but everyone in the delivery room was stunned.
This... the eldest prince is actually a lovesick man
The couple is not estranged, but just having a quarrel
*****
The eldest wife heard every word of the eldest prince's chattering.
She held on to the quilt with great difficulty, her eyes slightly widened, and she was unable to recover for a long time.
Another burst of severe pain came, and the eldest wife's face was distorted. She opened her mouth and uttered a breath: "Ce... Ce Fu Jin..."
The maidservant standing by the bed wiped her tears and said loudly, "Master, the wife asked you about taking a concubine. Cheng, the daughter of the vice governor of the Bordered White Banner. You personally proposed this to Concubine Hui, just when the wife was about to give birth! When you paid your respects just now, Concubine Hui personally asked the empress dowager for her approval, and she said that you liked Cheng. Could it be false?"
Cheng family
Yinzhi felt a chill in his heart, and he finally understood what was going on with Na Ce.
He closed his eyes, mother...
Then he became anxious again and explained quickly: "My master is busy attending court and reporting for duty. I don't even know whether she is happy or not, so how can I say that I like her?... I didn't have the energy to pay my respects these past few days, and I was confused about paying my respects. I thought that Cheng was the daughter-in-law that my mother had chosen for my cousin..." His voice gradually became lower and was almost inaudible.
Yinzhi wiped his face and suddenly didn't have the courage to continue.
Fu Jin was so heartbroken that he thought blankly, what a pathetic life I have lived.
In the delivery room, Imperial Concubine Wen was extremely surprised, and the imperial doctors looked at each other, wishing they were deaf.
Yun Xiu moved her lips, but was speechless for a while.
They are indeed brothers of the same blood. One or two of them are just a little bit stupid.
Only this one is even stupider!
The maid called out "Fujin" in a low voice, with an expression that looked like she was about to laugh. What was going on
"..." The eldest wife forced a smile, and her sallow face suddenly became radiant, but her tears flowed even more violently.
That's right, she overestimated him. Look at his silly look.
At this moment, the midwife's surprised voice came: "Fujin, please push harder! The baby is in the right position, and the cervix is wide open!"
Yinzhi sat down on the ground.
Half an hour passed, an hour passed...
As the sky gradually darkened, a child's cry was finally heard, thin and weak, and it sounded as if he was losing some strength. The eldest wife was soaked all over and had no more strength left. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
The imperial doctors breathed a sigh of relief. Although the little princess was weak, she was much better than they had expected.
"The little princess can't be exposed to the wind. She needs to be taken care of carefully. If she is nurtured carefully for a month or so, she will be no different from an ordinary child." One of them carefully covered the swaddling clothes and said thoughtfully, "As for the eldest wife, she can only be moved after the confinement period..."
He whispered again, "After all, this ordeal is not good for the mother. In my humble opinion, the first wife needs at least two years of recuperation before she can get pregnant again."
Yinzhi listened attentively, and when he heard the words "recuperate for two years", a flash of heartache appeared in his eyes. Apart from that, there was no other emotional fluctuation, and he just nodded seriously.
"Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Liu." Concubine Wen nodded slightly and looked at Yun Xiu with a questioning look in her eyes.
Yunxiu looked at Yinzhi, whose eyes were red and looked like he had survived a great disaster, and said calmly, "The eldest wife is fine. Please move, my dear prince, and follow me to report."
Yinzhi responded with a low sound and cupped his hands.
*****
Hearing Liang Jiugong's report, Kangxi hummed and looked happy.
It was inevitable that the eldest wife would take care of her when she gave birth, but it was not reasonable for the elders to be there. He asked the crown prince to lead his brothers to leave, went to the inner hall to pay respects to the two queen mothers, and then returned to the imperial study.
Apart from granting marriages, the emperor usually does not interfere in his son's affairs unless there is a scandal that cannot be suppressed. But today he made an exception.
Kangxi asked Liang Jiugong to find out the cause and effect of the first wife's bleeding, and he frowned.
Concubine Hui, Yinzhi.
Kangxi, full of anger, put down the memorial in his hand and said, "Go to the Cining Palace."
The other side.
"Little Princess?" Concubine Hui, who had been waiting anxiously, stood up suddenly. She couldn't believe it at all. "It's not the little prince?!"
Her beloved grandson... the eldest grandson of the current emperor!
Concubine Hui's look of disbelief was so frightening that her eyes were red and she seemed to have lost all her strength. She remained silent for a long time and anyone could see her disappointment.
For about a quarter of an hour, the air was still and the hall was silent.
After an unknown amount of time, Yinzhi closed his eyes and uttered a few words stiffly: "Fujin... I'm sorry to trouble you, mother."
The word "trouble" sounded ironic. Yun Xiu raised her eyelids and looked at him, smiling but not saying anything.
As if stimulated by Yun Xiu's eyes, Concubine Hui pulled herself out of her disappointment, sneered and took a few steps forward, and said slowly: "Concubine Yi is so arrogant. It's not enough to replace my grandson, but you think you are the real mother-in-law of Irgen Jueluo?!"
In a place where no one noticed, the little palace maid on duty quietly left the hall and walked quickly towards the Empress Dowager's bedroom; the Empress Dowager came in holding the hand of Nanny Qian, and when she heard these words, her smile disappeared instantly.
Born in the royal family, the prince is naturally more noble, but the princess is also a golden branch and jade leaf, pampered by everyone. Now, the emperor only has two legitimate granddaughters, and he can't wait to cherish them, so how can she be disliked
Yun Xiu seemed to have heard a joke, and it took her a long time to suppress the upturned corners of her lips.
She whispered, "Your Majesty is so confused."
This one word stirred up a thousand waves. Before Concubine Hui could speak, Yun Xiu stared at her coldly and said, "The Emperor spared you again and again for the sake of the eldest prince and the past relationship. Little did he know that both mother and son were fools. One was deceived and could not distinguish right from wrong; the other looked kind but was actually torturing his daughter-in-law."
After a pause, she continued, "Even though she was pregnant, the first wife still worked tirelessly to take care of the old ancestor. She had to take care of the household chores when she returned home, and she was really overwhelmed. What about you? As a loving mother, have you ever taken care of the eldest princess in any way?"
"Eight months pregnant, you still want to put someone in your son's backyard; the birth of a little princess is a great joyous event, and you dare to complain that she is not a prince!" Yun Xiu scolded, "Even if she is your daughter-in-law, even if there is a generation gap, you can't let her be so degrading!"
The insult was so harsh that it almost peeled off the person's face and stepped on it.
Concubine Hui pointed at her, breathing heavily, and couldn't utter a word for a long time. Yinzhi froze in place, as if his soul had left his body.
After saying this, Yunxiu turned around and looked directly into Kangxi's eyes.
I don’t know how long I have been listening to it.
She smiled and asked knowingly, "Your Majesty, is what I said correct?"
Kangxi stood with his hands behind his back and moved his lips.
If I say she is right, doesn't that mean I am admitting that I am also a fool
So he didn't even look at Concubine Hui, and said calmly: "Yinzhi, kneel down."
The eldest prince knelt down stiffly.
"Only by cultivating oneself and managing one's family can one govern the country. What have you learned? You are controlled by women..."
Before she finished speaking, Su Malagu hurried over to report, her usually calm expression becoming flustered: "Empress Dowager, Your Highness. The old ancestor was angry because of what Concubine Hui said, and kept saying 'She doesn't want a granddaughter, I do'. My chest is actually aching, please ask the imperial physician to go and take a look!"
