Sun's stomach is already very big. The royal doctor said that the delivery date is in the near future and will not exceed ten days.
From the news that Hu Shanxiang was going to produce, there was a lot of coldness here. Even the imperial doctor was absent-minded.
Wang Zhen kept coming to send back the news. Sun just lay down and didn't lift his eyelids.
"Empress, your majesty has come back and gone to Kunning palace."
Sun's breath was calm, as if he were asleep.
But Wang Zhen knew she must be thinking about something, so she turned and ran out, working hard like a young man.
After Wang Zhen left, mother Zhou waved and the imperial doctor hurried out. Then she said, "madam, the queen gives birth. Your Majesty must go, otherwise the government and the public will talk about it. It won't be good for us at that time."
Without making a sound, mother Zhou smiled and said, "Your Majesty came here this morning. It can be seen that you are still the most important in your Majesty's heart."
"Don't say that."
Sun said faintly, and then the room fell into silence until Wang Zhen ran back again.
Wang Zhen was already sweating and his clothes were half wet. He panted and said, "empress dowager, Empress Dowager has gone to Kunning palace."
……
"Don't think about what you have or don't have. What you should think about is Daming."
The Empress Dowager sat outside the delivery room. The imperial doctors wanted to persuade Zhu Zhanji to go back, but no one dared to speak.
Zhu Zhanji said, "empress mother, this fetal minister thinks he should be a prince."
The Empress Dowager leaned back in her chair, rubbed her eyebrows and said, "Duanduan wants to come over. The palace stopped her for fear of an accident... At least she didn't see it with her own eyes and ears, so you should have some heart."
Zhu Zhanji was full of mixed feelings. At this time, there was a cry of pain in the delivery room. He couldn't help clenching his fists, and then asked, "is Duanduan terrible?"
The Empress Dowager closed her eyes and said slowly, "she just told her that children taboo this and other things. She is clever, but someone must have told her this. It hurts to look in her eyes."
Zhu Zhanji's eyes were full of murders. He turned back and nodded to Yu Jia behind him. Yu Jia immediately led the God society to go out and arrange someone to investigate the matter.
……
In the open room, I found pen, ink, paper and inkstone and asked people to sharpen ink.
Without asking for help, she slowly climbed up the chair.
The maid in waiting on the side polished the ink. When she saw Duan holding her cheek with her hand, she looked blankly out of the window and whispered, "princess, the ink is good."
Take a look at the inkstone and pick up the brush
The little man sat quietly in his chair, stroke by stroke, writing scriptures very slowly and seriously.
The incense burner in the corner was misty.
The palace maid folded her hands on the side and read silently.
The long eyelashes suddenly trembled slightly, and then looked up out of the window.
"The mother will have a little brother. Well, it must be a little brother."
Yu Jia saw the serious little face and pious prayer.
Time seemed to stop at this moment. Yu Jia was deeply infected and couldn't help praying to God in his heart
……
In the delivery room, Hu Shanxiang couldn't help humming in pain. Everyone in the room looked at her with admiration. According to their understanding, most people can't help the pain of having children. When it hurts most, they just want to die immediately, not to mention screaming loudly.
The Queen really can bear it!
Hu Shanxiang's face on the delivery bed was covered with sweat. She suddenly gasped and said, "bring that, bring it!"
The mammy in charge of production wondered, "what do you take, madam?"
Hu Shanxiang suddenly snorted, trembled a few times, and then said, "go... Ask Yi'an..."
Mammy went out carefully and found Yi'an.
Yi'an was stunned when she heard this, and then looked for something with a bitter smile. After waiting outside, the Empress Dowager and Zhu Zhanji immediately asked about the situation. Yi'an dared not hide it and said, "the empress is still waiting for the opportunity to let the old slave get something."
The Empress Dowager said unhappily, "it's all at this pass. What do you take?!"
Zhu Zhanji also said helplessly, "let her concentrate on production and don't be distracted!"
Women's life and children are most taboo to think nonsense. The Empress Dowager told Zhu Zhanji, so he was really speechless to Hu Shanxiang.
Yi'an was the one the Empress Dowager gave to Hu Shanxiang, so she dared to say, "empress, your majesty, empress... Want to take that grapefruit..."
The Empress Dowager was puzzled. Seeing Zhu Zhanji's silence, she asked, "what grapefruit? Is there such a thing on this festival?"
Zhu Zhanji was still silent. Yi'an said, "madam, that's the stone carving that Xinghe Bo gave to the empress when her majesty got married. It means... Having a son."
In an instant, the Empress Dowager choked. She pointed to Zhu Zhanji and scolded, "women are difficult. The Queen's luck is not good. When I met you, a heartless man, what evil has my family done!"
All the people in the yard were expressionless. No one dared to keep this in mind, let alone say it.
Zhu Zhanji blushed and pleaded, "empress mother, my son's ministers are frivolous."
Yi'an hurriedly came with a brocade box. She first opened it for the Empress Dowager and Zhu Zhanji, and then entered the delivery room.
"Madam, here you are."
Seeing that Hu Shanxiang's hair was wet with sweat, Yi'an remembered that the emperor's preference for sun had almost reached the level after the change, and couldn't help feeling sad.
Hu Shanxiang had no expectations for this baby in the past. She was willing to accept both men and women, but at the critical moment of production, she actually thought of the grapefruit carved from Tian Huangshi, which shows that she should have the consciousness of being a mother.
Yi'an handed the stone carving to Hu Shanxiang, leaned over and said softly, "madam, the princess is worried about you at the Empress Dowager's side!"
Hu Shanxiang nodded, clenched the stone carving and said with a strong smile, "let her not worry. Give her a... Brother and let her play with... With."
The children of the Imperial Palace knew how to fight and look at their faces when they were a few years old, which made Hu Shanxiang sad from his heart. Then he summoned up his courage, took a deep breath and worked hard
When she heard the first scream, the Empress Dowager nodded and said, "giving birth to a child is torture or torture, which is the same as that of the East factory and the royal guards."
Zhu Zhanji was speechless, but his scalp became numb listening to the scream.
"The first child was the most difficult, but the queen endured it all the time. It's the same at the beginning of today. It can be seen that now she has relaxed, okay!"
The Empress Dowager always felt that Hu Shanxiang's temperament was too weak. She didn't even understand the truth that being a mother was strong, which annoyed her. Now Hu Shanxiang began to scream, which means she has let go.
Have a prince
The Empress Dowager piously counted the Buddha beads and prayed silently.
……
Fang Xing didn't pray. He was drinking and the guest was Xie Jin.
Xie Jin was quite calm, in sharp contrast to Fang Xing, who was expressionless.
"I like wild beef best. If someone goes to sea next time, remember to ask them to get more back. It's a good dish to drink."
Fang Xing chewed beef jerky and said casually, "that's not a matter. I'll go to his Highness the king of Han and get some later."
He even has yak jerky on hand. He doesn't care about wild beef.
Xie Jin took a sip of wine and said, "this wine is refreshing and has a sweet aftertaste. Which one? I'll get some jars back."
Fang Xing said, "it seems that it is brewed with some snow water. Now I'm afraid it's hard to find it."
Baijiu, a fifty degree wine, tastes very sweet and refreshing. This makes Jie Jin not to prohibit wine from drying, but after a while, he is somewhat tipsy.
He sent a piece of beef jerky to his eyes, looked at it carefully and murmured, "don't think too much. It's none of your business for the queen to give birth to boys and girls. If you're worried about that woman, run on her son and stink his reputation. Then you go to sea and hide for a few years and come back. Your majesty will ensure that you won't be blamed."
Fang Xing shook his head and said blankly, "even if he doesn't blame me, the relationship has changed. It has become a stiff relationship between kings and ministers. What should I do back? It's better for my family to build an island overseas and communicate with the ministers in the court. Even if I seek a reward for my previous contributions and give some immigrants, then I won't come back."
Xie Jin said disdainfully, "what about Daming? You have poured so much into it. Don't you care about Daming?"
Fang Xing sneered: "it's time. Daming is none of my business!"
Xie Jin sighed, "you are angry with your majesty. Alas! So it would be better if you were estranged at the beginning. Now you are too close, but it makes it difficult for each other to talk."
