July is the month of ghosts, the door of ghosts is wide open, evil ghosts come, in order not to be haunted by evil ghosts, but also to be able to comfort the deceased relatives, the whole month of July is indispensable worship activities.

On the day of the Midyear Festival on July 15, Kangxi also ordered people to burn the boat and put sacrifices in the imperial lake, and there was a cold air everywhere in the palace.

Shu Wan also specially prepared a knife carved from peach wood to ward off evil spirits for Battle and Folgo on this day, the knife is short and fat, less than the length of a thumb, and looks chic and cute when tied around the waist.

Of course, there is another major event in the July Palace, that is, the concubine has entered the delivery period, and now the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital is guarding the Qixiang Palace all day long, waiting for the concubine to start.

Shu Wan is eating the newly made meat floss rolls in the small kitchen, the meat floss is made of pork and honey, fragrant and crispy with a hint of sweetness, the craftsmanship of the small kitchen is also excellent, each meat floss roll is only a bite in size, and then spread a thick layer of meat floss on top, one bite at a time, delicious.

At this moment, I suddenly heard someone outside the door announce, "Niangniang, the one in Qixiang Palace has started to start." ”

Shu Wan was stunned for a moment, took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands, and then threw it on the table, "Okay, prepare the sedan chair, and the palace will go to Qixiang Palace." ”

When I went to Qixiang Palace, there were already many people waiting, Tong Guifei, Concubine Hui, Yi Concubine, and Concubine De had already come, after meeting, they saluted each other, Shu Wan sat down quietly and waited on the side, and did not participate in the whispers of others, closed her eyes and silently recited the wood spirit exercises, so that the spiritual power operated in the body.

This waited from the afternoon to the evening when the lights were on, and everyone was already impatient, Concubine Tong took the excuse to leave first, and specially ordered Concubine Hui and Shu Wan to guard here, Shu Wan listened to the painful voice of Cheng Concubine from inside, and her heart was already numb.

Glancing to the side, Concubine Hui just pursed her lips and whispered a few words to the palace maid beside her, Concubine Yi, who was sitting near the door, was covering her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and seemed to be very unaccustomed to the smell of blood in this room.

They stayed here for nearly two hours, and the concubine was not born, Shu Wanfu closed her eyes again, and then a little palace maid suddenly knelt down in front of her with a pop, "Jade Concubine Niangniang, Jade Concubine Niangniang!" Please save my master! ”

Shu Wan didn't react at once, and kicked the little palace maid three meters away with a single kick, and after kicking, she realized that there were many pairs of eyes staring at her around, and she withdrew her leg and coughed embarrassedly twice, "Ahem, if you say something, just talk about things, what's the matter with hugging Bengong's legs?" ”

The dizzy little palace maid who was kicked reacted immediately, but she didn't dare to step forward anymore, she directly knelt on the ground trembling and kept kowtowing, and kept repeating a sentence in her mouth, "Please save my master, please save my master, please save my master,..."

Shu Wan sneered and looked at the little palace maid, "You said that you wanted this palace to save your master, but you didn't say who your master was, how did you let this palace save it?" ”

The little palace maid choked and said: "The jade concubine Niangniang knows, the master of the slave is Cheng Concubine Niangniang, and now the concubine Niangniang has a difficult birth, and the little brother can't give birth, please ask the Jade Concubine Niangniang to save my master." ”

"What's the noise?" As soon as Kangxi entered the door, he saw such a scene, and the uproar was not like words, which made his already irritable heart even more irritable.

The little palace maid saw that Kangxi seemed to see a savior, and hurriedly stepped forward and cried: "Your Majesty, Cheng Concubine Niangniang had a difficult birth, the imperial doctor said that the little brother was not in the right fetal position, and I was afraid that it was dangerous, and the slave maid heard that there was a life-saving medicine for the Jade Concubine Niangniang, and asked the Jade Concubine Niangniang to save the life of the concubine regardless of the previous suspicions." ”

At this time, Concubine Cheng's voice also sounded at the right time, with a hint of hoarseness and a little pain from the house, "Jade Concubine Niangniang!" Jade Concubine Niangniang! Yes... It hurts! Jade Concubine Niangniang, the concubine knew that she was wrong, before... used to be all concubines and ghosts, and asked the jade concubine to save the little brother's life for the sake of the little brother! ”

This angry voice sounded really heart-wrenching, and even Shu Wan was worried about whether Concubine Cheng would faint directly in the next second.

Concubine Tong, who returned with Kangxi, also said loudly: "Yes, Concubine Yu, if you really have any life-saving medicine, take it out quickly, don't hide it at this time, although I had a holiday with you before becoming a concubine, but the little brother is innocent, you can't watch the little brother leave before he sees the world with his own eyes." ”

This is really a generous statement, Shu Wan sighed silently, this concubine is afraid that she has an enmity with her in her previous life, and she is an out-and-out enemy in this life, so she tried her best to harm her again and again.

According to Concubine Tong, if she says to save now, then she must come up with the illusory medicine to save people, if she says not to save, it will be to see death and not to save, small belly, unkind, cruel and ruthless, the spittle of the people in the palace can drown her.

Seeing that Shu Wan was silent, Concubine Hui also hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, there is still an old ginseng in the concubine's palace that you rewarded to the concubine when the concubine was injured last time, and the concubine has already ordered someone to pick it up, I hope it can be useful to the concubine's sister." ”

"The concubine has a Ganoderma lucidum there, and she is willing to use it for her sister."

"Concubines too..."

…

"Enough!" Kangxi suddenly raised his voice, looked at the pile of warblers next to him, suddenly felt a little tired, and forcibly suppressed his anger and said: "I know that your intentions are all good, but the Tai Hospital is not short of medicinal materials, and it is not possible to use the medicinal materials in your private warehouse!" ”

"Please also ask the emperor to calm his anger, all the sisters are because they care too much about the little brother who is a concubine, so they lost their words for a while, and their words became more intense, but the concubines selfishly thought that their starting points were good," Seeing that Kangxi was angry, Concubine Tong hurriedly stepped forward to appease, "Your Majesty, the concubines and others just want to be able to see the little brother born as soon as possible, besides, if the concubine really has that medicine, why not..."

"What do you think selfishly? Among these people, you are the least qualified to say this..."Kangxi looked at Concubine Tong and just wanted to accuse, but Shu Wan next to him immediately stepped forward and pulled his sleeve, "Don't be angry, what Concubine Tong and the sisters said is very reasonable, but it's a pity that the concubines don't have the legendary life-saving medicine, but they disappointed the sisters." ”

"You don't have to excuse her!" Kangxi flicked his sleeves and raised his voice: "Concubine Tong, you are in charge of the harem and should maintain the stability of the harem, but now there are rumors spreading, and you are also responsible for dereliction of duty. ”

Concubine Tong Guifei's body shook, and the whole person fell, "The concubine knows, knows, the concubine will definitely clear the harem, and the emperor will not hear any rumors unfavorable to the concubine in the future." ”

"Hmph, that's good." Kangxi's eyes were like sharp knives, scratching Concubine Tong's body.

When the other people around heard it, they only thought that the emperor was too partial to Shu Wan, and they couldn't help but feel the sea of vinegar churning, but they couldn't do anything about it.

However, Concubine Hui moved her mouth and wanted to say a few words, but she was pulled by the light shadow behind her, remembering that she had won back the emperor's trust, and she must not waste it on this kind of thing, so she bit her lip unwillingly, and the matter was stopped.

A crisis ended, and the little palace maid who was holding Shu Wan's leg and begging didn't know where she went, she must have just found a chance to slip away, and she ran quite fast.

Not long after, a doctor came out to ask Kangxi if he should give concubine an oxytocic drug, Kangxi did not hesitate and asked the doctor to prescribe a prescription quickly.

After drinking the medicine, the birth was fast, and before the end of the day, the baby's cry sounded in the delivery room, and Kangxi finally showed a relieved smile on his face.

The midwife trembled and hugged the newborn little brother out, but there was not much joy on her face, "Congratulations to the emperor, the concubine gave birth to a little brother, but..."
