Chapter 351: Concubine Xian's daughter
Ye Zhenzhen touched Zhilan's hand, and then said bitterly, but there was a rare longing in her eyes, Ye Zhenzhen always hoped that the people around her could get along with her as a sister, and help each other if they had anything to say and what difficulties they had.
In essence, Ye Zhenzhen has always treated Qingju and Zhilan as if they were Shangguan, but they have less troubles on weekdays and are often with her, which will seem to be less troublesome.
Something like this happened today, Ye Zhenzhen saw only fear, avoidance and self-blame from Zhilan's eyes, but in fact, Zhilan didn't do anything wrong, but let Huaizhu save her life by mistake.
Ye Zhenzhen said this, hoping that she could understand that the palace was her home, and she should live freely and happily here in the future, instead of living in fear all day long.
"Miss, Huai Zhu he...... He kept telling me not to tell the prince and you, and the slave and maid were also afraid of causing trouble for you, so he never said anything. ”
Seeing Ye Zhenzhen looking at her with a disappointed face, Zhilan's heart immediately pinched together, only to see her nervously grabbing Ye Zhenzhen's hand and frowning and explaining.
Ye Zhenzhen stretched out her hand and rubbed her eyebrows for her, watching her gradually relax, then she reached out and touched her hair, and said very gently, "Zhilan, you have to remember that you are a person and an important part of the palace, if you believe me and the prince, you should share with us any troublesome things, I and the prince will definitely be able to help you solve it, you are not only my maidservant, but also the person I care about." ”
Speaking of this, Zhilan was already in tears, a few words choked in her throat, and she couldn't say anything, Ye Zhenzhen was afraid that she would be sad, so she hurriedly pretended to be relaxed and opened the topic, "Okay, don't think about anything, it's not too early, go and wait for the prince to bathe." ”
Zhilan wiped her tears with her sleeve, and then took her clean bedding clothes to the warm pavilion to add water and fragrant beans to Nangong Mu, and soon, the candles in the main courtyard were extinguished, and some of them were quiet.
At the same time, in the imperial city, the red candles of Yanxi Palace were burning, the voice of the cuckoo kept urging, and the miserable and terrifying shouts of Concubine De tortured people's hearts over and over again.
"Mother, work hard, work harder."
The words of the midwife grandmother are also vivid, an hour has passed, only listening to a miserable cry, but there is no sign of life.
"What about the emperor? Where is the emperor now? ”
Chun Tian had just been stained with blood on his hand, and ran out of the main hall without a head, and then looked around in the Yanxi Palace, as if he was more anxious than Concubine De.
"Miss Chuntian, the emperor is still approving excerpts in the Qinzheng Palace at this time, and ordered the old slave to come here to visit Concubine De Niangniang, I don't know how Niangniang is born now?"
Concubine De's pregnancy was an accident, and Emperor Daqing had no choice but to let her leave the child until now, but he didn't have any expectations for it, he just hoped that no matter whether she gave birth or not, she understood her own heart as soon as possible.
Chun Tian saw Father-in-law Gao appear in Yanxi Palace, and immediately panicked, only to see that she immediately pounced on it and grabbed Father-in-law Gao's trouser leg, which was a little begging: "Father-in-law Gao, our mother-in-law has some difficult birth, please report it to my father-in-law, please come and take a look, as long as the emperor comes, Niangniang's heart can also be comforted." ”
"Yo, Miss Chuntian, it's not that the old slave doesn't want to go, it's really the emperor who can't be free, the recent incident in Yan Kingdom, the people are not happy, the emperor has been anxious for several nights without rest, and now he is still busy, how can he be free."
Gao Gonggong's eyebrows squeezed, and a set of rhetoric came out without leaking, only to see him put on a sad face, and his tone was full of helplessness.
But only Emperor Daqing himself and Gonggong Gao knew that no matter whether Emperor Daqing was busy or not, he would not come to visit Concubine De, no matter whether the child was male or female, it was destined not to make Emperor Daqing happy.
Emperor Daqing didn't have the heart to stop here and listen to Concubine De's crying, so he simply couldn't hide.
"Doctor, doctor, Niangniang fainted, how is this good?"
Just when Chun Tian was arguing with Gao Gonggong, the midwife in the house suddenly shouted outward, as if she was also frightened.
When Chun Tian heard this, he couldn't care about what to say to Gonggong Gao, so he hurriedly opened the curtain and rushed in.
"Hurry up and put the ginseng slices in your mouth, and then let someone prepare some solid soup."
The imperial doctor was also anxious, and saw several big men busy in a mess, kneeling at the door of Yanxi Palace, discussing in private, and finally shouting to the little eunuch waiting.
Yanxi Palace was in a mess, and Gonggong Gao saw it in his eyes, as if he understood it in his heart, so he left Yanxi Palace in a hurry while no one was paying attention.
"What can I do about this, the mother's fetal position is not correct, and the dragon fetus is in the stomach, I am afraid that some of them will suffer."
Wen Po looked at Concubine De, who had just woken up, and then looked at the others and said helplessly.
"The emperor is not here, and I don't know whether to protect the big or the small, but I am really sad."
Several midwives were about to jump up, and their nervous mood infected everyone in Yanxi Palace.
Concubine De's noisy voice spread all over the six palaces, and the Xian nobles felt uneasy, so they went to Emperor Daqing's study at night, only to see the eunuchs standing in rows outside the study, all with their heads down.
"What about the emperor?"
Xian Guiren is not a powerful master, and he treats people very politely.
"The emperor is in the study."
A little eunuch bowed to the nobleman, and then hurriedly replied.
"Please go and report it, I want to accompany the emperor."
Xian Guiren clutched his chest in a little panic, and then whispered a little.
The eunuch went in and passed the word, and Emperor Daqing seemed to be very happy to see it, and really let the Xian nobles go in like this.
"The concubines ask the emperor for peace, and the emperor is blessed with peace."
Xian nobles know how to be well-read, and when they see Emperor Daqing's busy appearance, they still squat down respectfully and salute, and their voices and demeanor seem to be a little restrained.
"Why are you here so late?"
Emperor Daqing took the time to look up and found that the Xian nobles had not noticed, so he asked a little deliberately.
"Your Majesty, Concubine De is giving birth, and the miserable voice is everywhere in the six palaces, if the emperor is busy with political affairs, it is better to go over and take a look, save the Yanxi Palace without a leader, and Concubine De Niangniang can't be at ease."
Xian nobles didn't know Emperor Daqing's thoughts, and saw that he seemed to be just dealing with excerpts, so he opened his mouth with some caution and apprehension, and every word was heartfelt, so that Emperor Daqing, who had always been suspicious, was no longer suspicious.
"Concubine De is not the first time to give birth, don't worry, those imperial doctors are all old imperial doctors, I believe they will not disappoint me, but you, the night is more exposed, if you are noisy, you can let them close the doors and windows tightly."
Emperor Daqing raised his hand slightly, and then let the noble man sit on the table opposite him playing chess, looking intently at the words on the folding, but his mind was very active and tentative.
"Your Majesty, the concubines are not noisy, but they just feel suspenseful, Concubine De's mother's birth, I'm afraid it will be difficult to give birth."
Xian Guiren didn't understand Emperor Daqing's mind at all, but she said very casually from her own thoughts, as if she was chatting with her sisters about an innocuous matter.
"That's it, I'm tired today, pass on my will, and send the best thousand-year-old ginseng in the treasury to Yanxi Palace, just say that the Queen Mother is sympathetic to Concubine De's hard work in childbirth, and I will go to Yongshou Palace tonight."
Emperor Daqing was already worried about Concubine De's affairs, and the plan in his heart was always fighting against him, he was dizzy enough in the study, but fortunately, the Xian nobles came to explain one or two, but it made him feel a little more comforted, so he simply went directly to the palace of the Xian nobles.
"Yes, the old slave will give the order."
Tonight is not suitable for turning over the cards, but fortunately, the noble and intelligent people came over and said some impeccable words, and let Emperor Daqing feel that she was kind and sensible, so he went to Yongshou Palace on a whim.
At night, the red candles of Yongshou Palace shine high, there are several personal eunuchs of Emperor Daqing and the palace maids of the noble people in the courtyard, the sound of the piano in the palace is melodious and quiet, making people feel refreshed when they listen to it, and a sense of pleasure comes out of the heart.
In the early morning of the next day, all the unrest and noisy twists and turns of last night were finally swallowed up by the sun, and when the first rays of sunlight shone into the imperial city in the morning, everyone in Yanxi Palace was also exhausted, and the eyes of several imperial doctors were dark and blue.
"It's a princess, you see, how cute it is."
The first person to take the little princess out was very excited, and I saw her scrubbing with warm water while shouting to the others in sweat.
Several imperial doctors suddenly sat on the ground, without any strength, and the other eunuchs and palace maids did not have much joy, but were innumerably tired.
This production battle has been fought for too long, and the tired people are out of breath, and even Concubine De is not much better, and she just fell asleep.
"Go and report to the emperor, just say that Niangniang gave birth to a princess, please come and take a look, and the rest of the people will clean up this place, and then go to make some porridge for Niangniang."
Chun Tian looked at the appearance of everyone being lazy and lazy, and hurriedly cheered up and commanded, and the people around him seemed to have a backbone, and they did whatever they had to do.
Imperial Doctor Zhou took the pulse of the fourth princess and found that there was no major problem, but the labor process was too long, and some qi and blood were insufficient, so he gave the fourth princess a decoction, and then went to restore the life of Emperor Daqing.
Yongshou Palace, because Emperor Daqing wants to go to the early dynasty, the noble people are a little rusty and a few minions to change the court clothes for Emperor Daqing, looking a little tired.
"Your Majesty, the people from Yanxi Palace came to report that Concubine De gave birth to a princess, and everything is fine with the princess."
Gao Gonggong understood that Emperor Daqing's main concern at the moment was the affairs of Yanxi Palace, so when someone came to report, he immediately passed the news to him.
"Spread my will, Concubine De has a disease on her face, and she has hurt her vitality during childbirth, so she is not suitable to take care of the princess."
