Entering the delivery room, it was so quiet that it didn't seem to have anything to do with the liveliness outside. The delivery room was even hotter than the outside, and the rich scent of gardenia covered up the faint smell of blood.
Seeing that she was not strong enough, he left first. Zhu Yijun went up to sit by the side of the bed and held onto her hand.
"The Queen Mother hasn't left yet. Your Majesty will send you off." Wang Rong He said.
"I'll accompany you for a while." Zhu Yijun said, he looked at Wang Ronghe, his chest holding his thousands of words, and saw her pale white face and weak appearance, unable to say anything, he could only hold her hand.
"Your Majesty, please see mother off, and then bring the little princess here for me to see." "" Wang Rong advised. " I haven't even seen what the Little Princess looks like. "
Zhu Yijun got up and went out, and after a while, he returned with a baby. The wet nurse followed him closely, and repeatedly asked the emperor for her to come and carry him, the way the emperor did it was worrisome.
Zhu Yijun excitedly carried the child to Wang Rong and let her see, "Look, what a beautiful little princess."
Wang Rong and the head looked at the red skin, and couldn't help but be disappointed. "Not pretty at all."
"She'll be beautiful once her red skin has faded." Zhu Yijun said, "Even Imperial Mother said that it is rare for a child to be born in such perfect condition. If you eat your fill, then go to sleep, the most obedient child. "
Wang Rong looked at Zhu Yijun, "Your majesty should have found a beautiful queen, if the little princess was like me, she wouldn't have been so beautiful."
"Everyone says that my daughter, Father Xiao, is a beauty." Zhu Yijun said solemnly.
Wang Rong He wanted to laugh, but she pulled at the wound below her and grimaced in pain. "You're tired, so I won't disturb you today. Rest well, I'll come and see you tomorrow."
Wang Rong He nodded. "Your Majesty, please put the little princess by my side to sleep."
Zhu Yijun left the Kunning Palace and took Xu Duzhong away as well, as he sat on the Qianqing Palace and looked at him, "Just now when you were talking about the empress's body in the Kunning Palace, did you have anything to say?"
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that the Empress has not been able to produce enough vitality for the past few years." Xu Duzhong cupped his hands and said. He still decided to help the empress, but he couldn't die from his words. Perhaps after two years, the empress herself would change her mind.
"How could that be?" Zhu Yijun said in shock, "The midwives say that the empress's womb is very smooth and ordinary people have to struggle for a few hours to give birth to their child. The empress didn't even use a life-saving ginseng, how could she leave behind such a serious side effect?"
"The process of the Empress's birth went smoothly. It was just that it went smoothly when compared to those who have difficulty giving birth." Xu Duzhong said, "Moreover, the Little Princess has at least seven kilograms, making her a rare robust and healthy child. The Empress's food and drink during pregnancy all grow on the Little Princess's body, and then it would consume a lot of vitality during childbirth."
"If Your Majesty wishes to speak with the Empress about Dunlun, that is fine too." Xu Duzhong said, "I'm just afraid that the Empress won't live for long."
"If you keep it well, will it affect the life of the empress?" Zhu Yijun asked seriously.
"If you keep him alive, you will live Wuyou's life." Xu Duzhong said.
"You have to do your best to take care of the Empress." Zhu Yijun said.
"Your subject will do his best." Xu Duzhong said.
Zhu Yijun sat back on the couch. "You don't need to tell the Queen about this matter, in case her heart gets anxious, and she won't be able to get away with it."
"This subject accepts the decree." Xu Duzhong said.
Zhu Yijun waved him out, feeling a little lost in his heart. How could this be? After being at a loss for a while, he thought of the reality before his, and the little princess' joy dissipated by a bit. He also liked the little princess, but if the empress couldn't sleep with his, then she couldn't have children. She felt very sad, because if the first child was a prince, she wouldn't feel so bad about it either.
He turned his head and saw a lantern hanging there. The fat child was smiling at him, this was an unfamiliar lantern, but he knew that it was Zitong who had given it to him today. That's right, it was Yuanxiao today.
Zitong had once discussed with him with a smile about the child in their belly, what did he look like? How old was he when he was born? She also didn't know what kind of husband a wife would marry in the future. She chattered on for a long time, and Zhu Yijun also laughed and said that regardless of man or woman, they would have a few more babies in the future anyway.
But there was no chance.
He suddenly felt a wave of sadness rise in his heart. He didn't know if this sadness was for the sake of having no son, or for the sake of being a prince. The first time he saw Wang Rong, she was healthy and full of vitality. She was like a leaf in spring, causing people to feel relaxed and happy when they saw her. Zhu Yijun looked at the lantern and suddenly the image of Zitong's pale face and healthy face appeared in his mind. Zitong smiled at him.
If he knew that having children would consume Zitong's vitality, it would make her body worse, and might even affect her lifespan.
He wouldn't say that he would allow Zitong to give birth to a few more children;
When Feng Shang saw that the Emperor was looking at the lanterns, he thought that he was confused. He then stepped forward and said, "This lantern was hung up by Zhang Cheng at noon, I don't know where he sent it over, but this child's face is probably made to please us. It's probably to please us."
"Take it and hang it on the wall." Zhu Yijun said. He felt a bit of heartache looking at it, so he might as well not see it.
Feng Shang had thought that Zhang Cheng had happily moved the lanterns over when he smacked his fawning onto the horse's leg. The bookwall was two cubicles away from the Emperor's office, so the emperor wouldn't be able to see it at a glance.
Wang Rong He slept for six hours before he woke up again. It was already late at night, but the lights were still on, and the people serving him were in high spirits.
Wang Rong and she drank three cups of warm water in succession before giving up. She asked the Empress what she wanted to eat, explained in detail what was prepared on the stove, and shook her head. "I'm a little unable to eat right now."
"Then let Imperial Physician Xu come in for the Empress to see." "Because of the Empress's summons, Imperial Physician Xu has been waiting outside the hall without sleeping."
"Then, let him come and check his pulse before going back to rest." Wang Rong He said.
Xu Duzhong came over to check her pulse, and said that Wang Rong and her pulse were stable, and there were no dangers. "He asked worriedly." "But does the Empress's lack of appetite have any hindrance?"
"The Empress has spent a great deal of effort in her euphoria today, so the slight change in her appetite is normal." Xu Duzhong said, "But the Empress needs to eat some properly as a result of her body."
She looked at Xu Duzhong, who replied hurriedly, "This subject has reported to His Majesty that the Empress' vitality has been damaged. I'm afraid that she won't be able to sleep in for a few years. His Majesty told me to hide it from the Empress, so that she wouldn't be worried and unable to sit and rest properly for a month."
Xu Duzhong's gaze was a little accusatory. His Majesty doted on the Empress, but the Empress had to make things difficult for him.
Wang Rong He nodded his head, "Thank you, Imperial Physician Xu. "Let's go rest."
Since he was free, he sent Xu Duzhong out and then brought back chicken soup. Seeing Wang Rong, he stared at the top of the bed and asked, "Miss, do you want some chicken soup?"
Wang Rong smiled bitterly and shook his head. "I really don't have any appetite anymore."
"Miss, do you remember why you wanted to send your wet nurse home to reunite with her husband? Because, tell me, if this husband and wife were to leave you far behind, then their relationship would be very good, no matter how good it is. Since this young lady knows about this principle, why did she reject His Majesty and Thousand Li? "
"I did not enter the palace for long, so I can tell that His Majesty truly loves the Empress." It would be unfair for your majesty if this lady were to make such a decision. "
"He truly loves me, and he also truly loves one, two, three, four, five of the imperial harem."
"Even if he is a prince, I will fight for him with all my might. To be a pair with him for his entire life, even if it is impossible, I will have a clear conscience when I live my own life behind closed doors. I have fought for him, but I do not have fate, so I will not force him."
"But he is His Majesty, and I can't even fight for a chance. All the concubines in the palace are my responsibility, and I have to elect his concubines every three years. Tens and hundreds of flower-like ladies come at once, and he can even sleep one a day.
"His things went in and out of so many bodies, and then he had to sleep next to me and come to me." Wang Rong put her arm around her and said, "I think I'm so dirty that I can do whatever I want. I really want to die. "
"Sometimes I would rather he didn't treat me well so that he wouldn't miss me. I wouldn't feel any psychological burden from my cold words."
"Since he treats me so well, if I say bad things about him, I'll be making trouble for him. It's good enough that my own defense is going down, and I'm so afraid I'll fall in love with him. "
"If I fall in love with him, I will go mad. He will go mad too."
"Because he will discover that the queen that he thought was virtuous and magnanimous, the cute and lively woman, is a madman. He will be afraid of me, hate me, and treat me coldly. In the end, I will also die." Tears rolled down Wang Rong's cheeks without a sound, and she went to wipe them with an aching heart. She looked at her still eyes and sobbed, "Don't cry anymore, Miss. I'm crying too much. I need to get sick."
"No physical contact is the best defense against this." Wang Ronghe muttered, "I can be a virtuous and magnanimous queen, a lovely and lively woman for the rest of my life." I guard my heart, will not lose, will not lose manners.
"In addition to not being well-mannered, we can still talk and communicate like friends as we used to. We can still respect and love each other."
"The empress dowager from different rooms is too many, I won't have one more."
"His Majesty has many servants serving him, so there is nothing extraordinary about my service."
"Now that I have a little princess, as long as my movements are stable, His Majesty will not cripple me."
"Even if he is doted upon by His Majesty and acts arrogantly, there will come a day when he will be crippled."
"I have no choice." Wang Rong He closed his eyes. "Who asked him to be His Majesty?"
And who told her to have such a deep obsession in her heart? Every time His Majesty thought about others coming back to the Kunning Palace two days later, she would always suffer greatly. She would coax her majesty to go take a bath first, but would it be fine after taking a bath? If she felt clean, and why did she keep her eyes closed in matters of love, she did not want His Majesty to see the sadness, resignation, and deep self-loathing in her eyes.
She didn't want to die.
She just wanted to live.
