Qiu Yue originally didn't expect that Qianlong would always wait outside the delivery room, at this time, Qiu Yue saw that Qianlong's face showed undisguised worry and anxiety, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, then came back to her senses, hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and respectfully explained: "If the slave and maid return to the emperor, Xiao Guiren is all right now." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe midwives said that the fetal position of the noble lady was very positive, and the labor process was going smoothly. It's just that the noble lady is still young and has given birth for the first time, so it will take some time to give birth to two little brothers. The noble lady was worried that she would not have the strength to give birth, so she ordered the slave maid to go to the imperial dining room to get some winter melon pork rib soup, and said that she wanted to use some fresh and juicy honey, grapes, and sweet melons and fruits. ”
When Qianlong heard that Xiao Yan was still in the mood and interested to eat at this time, he was finally a little relieved. After all, if you still want to eat at this time, it means that the little girl is in good shape.
Qianlong thought for a moment, wrinkled his brows and ordered: "Since Xiao Guiren wants to use some winter melon pork rib soup, you will go to the imperial dining room and tell the imperial chef to prepare it immediately." As for fresh fruits, it's okay to use some peaches, however, melons and fruits are cool, and grapes are easy to cause diarrhea. ”
Qianlong thought about what Shicai was worried about, and asked suspiciously: "Why is it so quiet in the delivery room?" Could it be that Xiao Guiren didn't cry and shout at all? ”
Qiu Yue hurriedly replied: "Back to the emperor, the midwives said that Xiao Guiren's birth canal has not been fully opened, so it is not yet time to exert strength, and persuade the mother not to cry, so as not to lose strength when she officially gives birth." Because of this, even if the mother was pale in pain and broke out in a cold sweat, she gritted her teeth and held on! ”
When Qianlong heard this, he couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in his chest, and his deep phoenix eyes showed tenderness that he had never been aware of, and he muttered in a low voice: "This stubborn little girl is really ......" The voice gradually became smaller and quieter, and finally it could not be heard. However, in an instant, Qianlong had already come back to his senses, waved his hand at Qiu Yue, and motioned for Qiu Yue to retreat.
Qiu Yue hurriedly took the order and left, and hurried to the imperial dining room to run an errand.
The reason why Qianlong ordered Qiuyue to do this errand was because Qiuyue was as proficient in pharmacology as Qiulan, knew all kinds of poisons well, and was his confidant. Therefore, sending Qiuyue to the imperial dining room to get Xiao Yan's meal, Qianlong was also relieved.
After Qiuyue's reminder, Qianlong felt that although some things may not be able to be used, they should still be prepared as soon as possible, so as not to prepare them when they are needed, so they turned to the imperial physician Wu Qian and said: "You should immediately go and boil the thousand-year-old ginseng you brought into the medicine and boil it into ginseng soup, and leave a few pieces of ginseng slices in case of emergency." ”
Imperial Physician Wu Qian secretly said to himself, everyone in the Heart Dao Palace said that the emperor was extremely fond of Xiao Guiren, and secretly envied and jealous Xiao Guiren's concubines and concubines, and they didn't know how many. It's just that if they see the emperor personally waiting outside the delivery room at this time, worried and anxious for Xiao Guiren, they will know that the emperor's attention and favor for Xiao Guiren is far beyond their imagination.
Although there are many precious medicinal materials in the palace, there are only three thousand-year-old ginseng of such high quality. This is a life-saving medicine at a critical moment, and it should be collected well, and it should not be used until it is absolutely necessary. However, the emperor has not yet determined the need for Xiao Guiren, but he asked him to boil a thousand years of ginseng soup in advance for later use. If it weren't for the emperor really taking Xiao Guiren to heart, he would never have been able to do this.
Qianlong had a life, Wu Qian naturally didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly received the order to boil ginseng soup himself.
In the delivery room, Xiao Yan survived the increasingly dense and intense bursts of pain, drank a bowl full of winter melon pork rib soup, and ate half a peach, and suddenly felt that she had a lot of strength in her body. At this moment, Xiao Yan felt a heat under her body, and it seemed that a lot of warm liquid suddenly flowed out.
The midwives were afraid that Xiao Yan was young and had never experienced this kind of scene and were frightened, so they hurriedly explained to Xiao Yan: "Don't worry, the noble lady's amniotic water broke just now, and it wasn't bleeding. After the amniotic water breaks, the labor process will also be much faster. Now that the noble Niangniang's birth canal has opened eight fingers, please bite your teeth and hold on for a while, and then you can give birth to a little brother! ”
At this moment, Xiao Yan was so tormented by the intense labor pain that she couldn't speak, fine beads of sweat oozed from her pale forehead, and a little blood had been bitten on her pink lips.
Damn, it hurts! Compared to the pain after the water breaks, the labor pains before the water break are simply appetizers before the meal!
If she suddenly experienced this kind of abdominal pain, most women couldn't help but cry, however, Xiao Yan had already developed a strong ability to tolerate pain due to her various experiences in the army in her previous life. Moreover, Xiao Yan's self-esteem is extremely strong, and she really can't allow herself as a military doctor to cry and shout meaninglessly like other ordinary mothers, and would rather hold on to her teeth and save her strength to give birth to two children as soon as possible when she officially gives birth.
The palace maids and midwives who were waiting for Xiao Yan saw that Xiao Yan was trembling in pain, but they couldn't bear it and didn't cry a word, and they were surprised in their hearts, and they looked at this young and beautiful Xiao Guiren even more.
Although Qiulan had never given birth to a child, she had also heard that women who gave birth to children had to cry a few times, and at this time, seeing Xiao Yan bite her delicate lips like flower petals, she couldn't help but have some admiration for Xiao Yan in her heart.
Qiu Lan wiped the sweat from Xiao Yan's forehead with a soft brocade handkerchief, and persuaded distressedly: "The slave maid heard that women who give birth to children are all going to cry. If the mother really feels that the pain is terrible, it doesn't hurt to scream a few times! ”
Xiao Yan shook her head firmly, and said weakly: "No need, I can still hold ......"
At this moment, another intense labor pain hit, making Xiao Yan's face even paler, and she subconsciously bit her already scarred lip again.
Qiulan couldn't, so she could only hurriedly take a clean cloth towel and put it in Xiao Yan's mouth for her to bite, so that she wouldn't bite her lips and teeth because of the pain.
Xiao Yan had never felt that time was so difficult, and she even missed the anesthetics and various advanced instruments and means that she once despised for painless delivery. It wasn't until the sky was twilight that Xiao Yan heard the joyful voice of the midwife, "Noble lady, the birth canal has been opened to ten fingers, and now you can use force." Niangniang only needs to keep exerting force downward when the labor pain comes, and the little brother can be born smoothly! ”
Xiao Yan was overjoyed in her heart, and hurriedly continued to work hard according to the suggestions of the grandmothers. Xu is two little guys couldn't bear to let their Eniang work too hard, and soon cooperated with Eniang to obediently crawl out of Eniang's belly.
With the loud crying of only a quarter of an hour apart in the delivery room, the fifth and sixth elder brothers, who were favored by Qianlong in the future, were born one after another.
The slaves and maids in the delivery room knelt down one after another to say hello to Xiao Yan, "Congratulations to Niangniang, congratulations to Niangniang, Niangniang gave birth to two sturdy little brothers for the emperor!" ”
Since Qianlong had already mentioned in advance the midwifery and the palace maids who served Xiao Yan, the few slaves and maids present did not criticize Xiao Yan for giving birth to twin little brothers, only the joy and excitement of Xiao Yan's smooth birth and the peace of mother and child.
Before a not very favored Jia Concubine Niangniang gave birth, after Jia Concubine Niangniang gave birth to the fourth elder brother safely, the emperor rewarded the midwife and the imperial doctor with 200 taels of gold each, and now, Xiao Guiren, who is favored by the emperor, gave birth to a child, can the emperor give them less?
After the two midwives who were in charge of cleaning and taking care of the two little brothers washed the blood stains on the little brothers, they all showed surprise and couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
Xiao Yan saw that the midwives looked different, and she also became nervous, and she stood up anxiously, and asked uneasily: "What's wrong, is there something wrong with the little brother?" ”
The midwife hurriedly explained with a smile on her face: "Your noble lady, please rest assured, the two little brothers are all right." It's just that it's the first time for the slave to see a baby who looks so cute and beautiful like a doll in a New Year's picture when she was born! Little Brother is a blessed person at first glance, and the noble lady is really blessed! ”
The midwives wrapped the two little brothers with the red brocade prepared in advance, and happily hugged them out of the delivery room to say hello to Qianlong.
Qianlong, who had been waiting outside the delivery room all night, was already upset and irritable, especially when Qianlong clearly heard the midwives constantly urging Xiao Yan to exert himself, but he couldn't hear Xiao Yan's voice, so he was distraught and almost rushed into the delivery room to check the situation of Xiao Yan's mother and son in person.
Fortunately, when Qianlong was about to lose his patience, the loud cry of the little brother came from the delivery room, Qianlong was slightly relieved, but he secretly sighed in his heart: I used to only think that the crying and screaming of women when they gave birth was really a bit terrifying, but today I know that it is even more terrifying to not cry when giving birth!
Since Qianlong heard the children's crying, he couldn't help but stretch his neck to look into the delivery room, and couldn't wait to see these two little brothers who had never existed in his previous life that he had been looking forward to for a long time. At this time, the orange-red morning glow is reflected on the window edge of the delivery room, gradually bathing the entire delivery room in golden sunlight. Qianlong narrowed his eyes slightly, and his deep phoenix eyes became darker and darker.
Originally, Qianlong was ready to see two identical little brothers, however, when the two midwives hugged the cleaned little brothers to him and congratulated him, Qianlong couldn't help but light up and looked at the two little brothers in surprise.
I saw that these two little guys were raised very well by Xiao Yan, although they were twins, their size was the same size as other full-term baby boys, their little faces were white and tender, chubby, and their eyes were black and bright, not at all like the red monkey appearance of other newborn babies, which made Qianlong amazed.
In particular, it is worth mentioning that there is a significant difference in the faces of these two little brothers, and they are like Xiao Qianlong and Xiao Yan respectively, which is really interesting.
Qianlong looked at the faces of the two little elder brothers, and the more he thought about it, the happier he became, and he actually said hello three times in a row, and then laughed out loud, and his joy was beyond words.
Qianlong was looking forward to the excellent little brother who had never existed in his previous life, and Xiao Yan gave birth to two healthy and strong little brothers for him at once, but it happened that they were two little brothers with different appearances who looked like their parents and had very different appearances, Qianlong was naturally ecstatic. This is really a complete fulfillment of Qianlong's wishes.
Although Qianlong did want to do what Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Yongzheng did not do in the previous life, and wanted to establish the eldest son as the prince, but Qianlong, who was reborn in the first life, had already seen many things clearly, and it didn't matter whether the prince was the eldest son or not, the key was to see the prince's talent and qualifications, and whether he was suitable to become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. In this life, he must carefully select a suitable prince, and he will never let the prince who is not capable of carrying the Qing Dynasty inherit the throne.
Qianlong was overjoyed, and even ignored the rule of holding grandchildren in the palace, leaned over and personally took the two little elder brothers from the arms of the midwife, held them in his arms and teased them for a while, and immediately gave the two little elder brothers the names Yongqi and Yongying, and the official preface teeth were the fifth elder brother and the sixth elder brother. At the same time, Xiao Yan, the biological mother of the fifth and sixth elder brothers, was named a concubine and was established as the lord of Chuxiu Palace.
