Chapter 35: Childbirth
PS: There will be an interview with Sanjiang at 8 p.m. on 4/14, please support me then, thank you!
Hongru didn't know that Feng Wuxian had slowed down the pace of returning to Beijing, she was not the kind of woman who was very cautious, and as soon as she heard the shock of the news for the first time, her mood calmed down. After all, this was something she had expected a long time ago, and although her heart was still sour, she still pretended to be calm in front of outsiders, which also made the observant Li very satisfied. As Zongzheng's Feng Minzhi, what he is most afraid of is which prince will favor a side concubine, and then make a disturbance. The solemnity of Feng Wuxian before leaving really worried him, and later he learned that Hongru was pregnant with her first child, and he was even more worried. This time, after receiving the reward from the Li family, he let go of his snack a little.
Hongru looked out the window in a daze, since Fan Qingcheng severely punished those little maids, these people were always afraid and timid when they saw them, as if they were really some kind of tigress. In fact, she understands her identity, although her father-in-law takes good care of her goddaughter, but after all, she used to be a personal maid without a trace, which everyone knows. In the eyes of those subordinates, she was like a sparrow flying up a high branch to be envied, but unexpectedly, she would rather be that lowly palace maid, who could laugh and joke freely. Nowadays, there are rules for every walk, and every demeanor must conform to the requirements of a noblewoman, and she must abide by the female discipline and not compete for favor, she is really tired.
There was a sudden burst of pain in the abdomen, it seemed that the restless child was exercising his hands and feet again, Hongru caressed his abdomen lovingly, imagining what the child would look like in the future, perhaps, it would be a little beauty. She didn't expect to give birth to her eldest son, without the eldest son of a strong mother, it would only attract suspicion, and it was not as practical as a county lord who was divided into An'an. However, after a while, she felt that something was wrong, the pain that usually passed quickly had a tendency to intensify this time, and drops of sweat continued to roll down her forehead, was it about to give birth?
Without waiting for her to call, the sharp-eyed Li immediately shouted: "Come on, the red concubine may be about to give birth, hurry up and announce the stable wife!" Tell someone to boil hot water, you guys! ”
The whole mansion moved, after all, Hongru's safety is very important, and the child in the womb is the firstborn of their master, if there is a mistake, no one can afford to be guilty. Fan Qingcheng was anxiously pacing outside the courtyard, for himself, Feng Wuxian undoubtedly gave him a second life, for this, he can only repay him with loyalty. Hoping that Hongru could give birth to a healthy child for his master, he suddenly fell to his knees and folded his hands in prayer.
The delivery room was even more busy, although the day had been prepared for a long time, and all the servants and stable women were middle-aged women with deep experience, but they were still very nervous when it came to the end. This is not a woman from a civilian family giving birth, the one lying on the bed who is about to give birth is the first child of the Seventh Prince, and they will all die when they go on a business trip.
"Quick, hot water!" A steady woman shouted, "Be nimble with your hands and feet! ”
"Red Concubine Niangniang, work harder, and you'll be coming out soon!" The other was desperately wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead.
Hongru almost felt that unspeakable pain was about to drive her crazy, and even if she was mentally prepared, she couldn't hold it anymore. If it weren't for the fact that Li was there to hold on, and she was worried about the child in her womb, she would have doubted that she would have fainted in the first place.
Suddenly, she felt a sense of relief, and then a loud baby cry came into her ears. "Congratulations to Concubine Hong, she is a beautiful county lord!" A steady woman happily hugged the child, "It must be a beauty in the future!" ”
"Well, bring it to me." Hongru shouted in an extremely weak voice, and as soon as the words fell, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen again, "Ah! She couldn't help but scream again.
"And a child!" An experienced woman called out in surprise, "Quick, Red Concubine Niangniang, work harder!" ”
Hongru, who couldn't even think of anything in pain, grabbed the sheets with both hands, and almost used up the last bit of strength. Finally, there was another cry in the delivery room. "Ah, it's a cute boy this time! Congratulations to the red concubine, you gave birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus! ”
Hongru opened her eyes blankly, her whole body seemed to be scattered, and it took a long time to discern the meaning of Wen Po. "Two children?" She struggled to spit out a word.
"That's right, two babies, a man and a woman." Li said with a smile, "His Royal Highness the Seventh has an extra pair of children all of a sudden." ”
Hongru smiled sweetly, she was actually a mother of two children, and it was not ordinary luck. She was so tired that she had almost used all her strength just now, and at this time, her eyelids could no longer support it, and she quickly fell into a deep sleep.
"Dragon and phoenix fetus?" Fan Qingcheng's eyes widened in disbelief, he would be so lucky, God really opened his eyes once! With a smile on his face, he instructed the two servants who had come to report the good news to the entire mansion, while thinking about how to celebrate when his master returned.
Concubine Yu of Lingbo Palace got the news at the first time, and it was the first time that a child could have both dragons and phoenixes in the royal family, which could not but be said to be a good sign. The Xiao family, who was full of joy, generously rewarded the Li family with twenty taels of silver who came to report the good news, and then thought about how to report the good news to the emperor.
The emperor was reading the recitals in the Qinzheng Palace, and these days, although there were fewer troubles in various places, it was still enough to give him a headache. Although he already knew the truth about the last assassination of the princes, he still had no intention of transferring them back. If you want to return to Beijing, you must at least stabilize one side like no trace, these rebels only stared at the throne one by one, but they didn't want to think about how to govern the people, how could they rule the world at that time, and the courtiers below would not turn the world upside down.
"Your Majesty!" Shi Liushun rushed in and reported, "Lingbo Gongyu Guifei Niangniang came to report that the concubine of the king of Qinjun had successfully given birth today, and it was a dragon and phoenix fetus of a man and a woman!" Congratulations to the emperor for adding another pair of grandchildren! ”
The emperor didn't care much at first, but when he heard the dragon and phoenix fetus, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and his hand, which was already struggling to write, couldn't help but stop. "I didn't expect that girl to be very competitive!" The emperor slowly stood up, his eyebrows were full of joy, "Looking at her thin appearance, she must have suffered a lot." I will personally give names to the two children, and in addition, let the imperial doctor choose a batch of good tonic medicine to send to the Qinjun Palace. Then reward 10,000 taels of silver, 100 horses of brocade, and all kinds of gold and jade gadgets are also selected in the library, even if I have a little heart for the two children! ”
"The minions obey." Shi Liushun's eyelids jumped, in the past, when other princesses gave birth, the emperor did not have such a heavy reward, but this time it was a big exception. It is estimated that His Royal Highness the Seventh Highness's contribution in Fujian is indeed not small, and the red concubine gave birth to two children in a hurry, presumably the Seventh Highness will gain power in the future. These eunuchs in the palace were already good at figuring out the master's heart, so Shi Liushun immediately made up his mind to try his best to fight the wind without a trace in the future.
It had been more than ten days since Feng Wuxian got the news, and his first reaction was to cheer, but his long-standing habit had prevented him from doing so, after all, there were many other people around him. "Is Hongru okay?" He asked busily.
De Xi Lisuo kowtowed, "If you return to Your Highness, the mother and son are safe." In addition, Miss Yue's matter, Concubine Hong already knows. The latter sentence was a little hesitant, and his words were extremely low.
Feng Wuxian was silent, and he also knew that Hongru was pregnant and waiting for him to come back in the house, but there was such news at this moment, and others would not be able to think about it. "Alas, it's the king who is sorry for her." He seemed to think of that delicate and intelligent figure again, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Minions deserve to die. Manager Fan had already given a strict order, and they were all servants who were quick to speak for a while, so that Concubine Hong's maid knew about it, and asked His Royal Highness to punish him heavily. Although he will miss his future after saying it, Dexi still took the charge on himself, De Ming is already pitiful enough, it doesn't count lying in bed to recuperate these days, Fan Qingcheng even had the idea of expelling him from the house, after all, the royal rules are strict, and he has a personal relationship with the maid around Hongru, which is a big taboo.
"I can't hide this thing for a while, and it has nothing to do with you." Feng Wuxian didn't think there was anything wrong with the little guy in the house, "However, Dexi, Manager Fan's letter is the same as yours, what's going on with that Deming?" ”
Dexi felt a pang in his heart, he didn't know that Fan Qingcheng actually wrote these trivial things into that secret letter, since this was the case, he had to tell the truth. As he expected, Feng Wuji's face gradually turned ugly, and finally became completely gloomy.
"Your Highness, De Ming is just confused for a while, please be merciful, don't blame him, I beg you." Dexi pleaded, although he knew that De Ming had many mistakes, he still had a fluke, after all, Feng Wuxian had never favored Lan Ko, and maybe he wouldn't care that the two of them loved each other.
"Let's go back and discuss this matter, all in all, the others are not at fault, as for the name of virtue, let's supervise him according to the words of General Manager Fan." Feng Wuxian was not ready to make a big deal about this trivial matter for a while, so he just gave a few words of light command and sent Dexi away.
Yue Qiyan has been riding in the same car with Hai Ruolan these days, and they have heard the news that Concubine Hongru gave birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus without a trace. If it was placed in the past, Hai Ruolan must have been bitter in her heart, but now she is smiling, after all, her sweetheart has a pair of children, and she almost can't wait to see the two children. Regardless of whether he can marry him in this life, maybe as he says, as long as he gets rid of those paranoid fantasies, he can easily live.
Yue Qiyan looked at Hai Ruolan's smiling face, and couldn't help but smile confidently. It is very likely that Heruolan will become her real sister in the future, and becoming friends with her at this time is far better than becoming an enemy in the future, and besides, she should find one or two sisters of the same age. Shuyuan, a famous family in Beijing, let's see if I can beat you the more I smoke!
