In the middle of August, it is the season when the heat is unbearable, and all the palaces are like grass and trees under the scorching sun.

Inside the Huayang Palace.

Emperor Yin was napping on the small couch next to the Qingyu case, and there were no palace people waiting around, and the surroundings were quiet, leaving only Xiao Xiazi to serve.

"Your Majesty! Oh no! ”

He was sleeping in a daze, and there was a faint commotion outside the hall.

Xiao Natsuko hurriedly greeted him.

"Shh......h The emperor is resting, you pickled slave, aren't you looking for death? ”

As soon as the slave saw Father-in-law Xia, he hurriedly beat a thousand children.

"Father-in-law Xia, it's a big deal, the slave is Fengqi's subordinate, and the queen is about to give birth......"

Suddenly, Xiao Xiazi's eyelids jumped suddenly, and he clamped the collar of the minion.

"What did you say?"

"How dare a minion lie about such a big thing? It was Mingshan's father-in-law who sent a servant to report the news. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Xia Zi panicked.

He made two steps with three feet, hurriedly entered the hall, and saw that Emperor Yin was sleeping soundly, so he pulled his face, adjusted his breathing with a bated voice, and called to the master: "Your Majesty...... The Emperor ......"

The look of the person on the couch was very impatient.

"Your Majesty, the servants of Fengqi Pavilion have come to report that the queen is about to give birth."

With just these words, Emperor Yin Huo Ran sat up and glared angrily at the eunuch in front of him.

"Dog minion! Such an important thing, swallowing and spitting for a long time! ”

As he spoke, the figure of the master had already swept forward, and Xiao Xiazi reacted and hurriedly followed.

"Are you still safe?"

In the eunuch's pure voice, there was a crying voice, and he hurriedly kowtowed back.

"Imperial Physician Zhou is in the Lotus Palace, administering needles to the queen's mother, saying that the fetal movement has been abnormal recently, I'm afraid it's not good, the mother's pain is unbearable, and it has been two hours since she was born.

"Let's go!"

Emperor Yin's green robe hunted, striding meteor land, and he didn't need to take a step, he walked all the way.

To Fengqi Pavilion.

As soon as he approached the pavilion, he heard a scream from inside.

The palace people in the pavilion shuttle back and forth, the footsteps are on the ground, the line is in a hurry, and the golden basin that is brought out is rippling with scarlet and fresh blood, and the fishy smell is tangy, and it is disgusting to smell.

Emperor Yin's chest trembled suddenly.

"Ah......h

The queen's voice was extremely painful, perhaps because she had been screaming for too long, and now she became extremely hoarse.

"...... It's hard......"

"Quick! Fast! Hot water ......"

Even standing outside the hall, he could anticipate the chaos inside.

And in the voice of the stable woman, panic was already revealed.

He stood under the dripping eaves, pacing back and forth, anxious, and listened to it continuously, but the cry gradually faded...... His heart fluttered.

"Niangniang, no matter how hard you try, you can't give up, Niangniang!"

"Doctor, if you can't have both, you must ...... I have to give up my mother and protect my children......"

The woman's voice was very familiar, tearing like a torn silk, and it was also like a farewell.

"Fuck it!"

Emperor Yin heard it outside, and immediately shouted inward:

"What a mother! Old man Zhou, you listen to me, I want both, the queen and the little prince, if any one of them goes wrong, I will expose your skin! Ling Chi again, get out of the oil pot! Bury your children and grandchildren with the Imperial Doctor's Department! ”

Imperial Physician Zhou was so frightened that his wrist shook suddenly, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Yes......"

"The emperor can rest assured, the old minister will definitely do his best to take care of the mother with all his life."

"Less nonsense!"

As he spoke, there was another heart-rending scream.

Emperor Yin's mouth was ruthless, but his heart was extremely anxious and panicked, and the thousand-layer soap-soled boots went back and forth, stepping on the green bricks under the eaves with a "tuk-tuk" sound, and beads of sweat the size of beans fell from his forehead one after another.

Seeing this, Xiao Xiazi personally went to the imperial dining room, presented an iced white fungus sour plum pear soup, and served it to persuade:

"The emperor drinks cold soup to get rid of the heat."

"Hmm."

He only glanced at it, and suddenly remembered the perilla lotus root powder sour plum soup, which was made for him by the queen herself, the first bowl of soup, but was crushed into powder by himself, and he felt deeply guilty, which came from his heart.

The screams in the delivery room became more and more urgent.

"Old man Zhou, how is it?"

The voice came loudly from outside the door, Imperial Doctor Zhou's whole body was already sweating, and his composure turned into panic, but he didn't dare to say the words "fetal dystocia", plus the queen was originally weak, so she had to respond:

"Old minister...... Do your best! ”

His words were resolute, as if he was ready to die.

Emperor Yin has always been cautious and sensitive, how can he hide from him?

"But it's not good?"

The hall was silent for a long time.

The queen's heart-rending scream, the sound was heard, like a person's return to light.

The people outside can't hold it anymore!

The soap boot flew outside the curtain door, slammed into the door valve, shook off the beaded curtain, and forced his way in......

"Your Majesty! The delivery room is filthy, you are not allowed to enter it! ”

With Xiao Xiazi's sharp call, the group of minions standing outside all knelt down. In this scene, no one dared to speak out again.

"Get out of here!"

Emperor Yin raised his foot and kicked over, hitting Xiao Xiazi's heart, he breathed a little, but his hands held his master's feet, and he refused to let go.

"Your Majesty...... You are the Ninety-Five, this delivery room is bloody, you really can't go in......"

"If you don't get out of the way, I'll kill you!"

"Minions would rather be splattered with blood on the spot......"

"You ......"

Emperor Yin was angry, his face was swollen into purple pig liver, his fingertips rattled, and he pinched it fiercely, extremely pale. He glanced around, closed his eyes tightly, and after a while, he slowly opened them, and he had calmed down a lot.

"That's it! Get up. ”

"Today, if something happens to the queen, all the people present will be buried together!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a cry from below.

Xiao Xiazi didn't care about the pain in his chest, so he immediately ran up, shook off the dust, and hit the crying palace people.

"Crying for what? The mother is auspicious! ”

The crowd was silent.

The air was filled with heat and the sound of cicadas.

At this moment, no one cares about these at all, recalling the past, Emperor Yin is ashamed and blames himself.

If it hurts her early...... How nice would that be......

"Lian'er, you have suffered, if you give birth to the prince this time, I will immediately appoint him as the crown prince, and he will be the future prince of my Dayin!"

As soon as the words ended, the palace maid from inside screamed.

"Imperial Doctor Zhou, Niangniang has a lot of blood!"

"I can't stop it...... What should the doctor do......"

I only listened to Imperial Doctor Zhou's trembling, raised his old voice, and commanded:

"Quick, quickly take the medicine according to this prescription, within half an hour, the water will only turn into one, the thicker the better, immediately give it to the mother!"

The prescription was handed out, and there was an immediate panic outside.

At this moment, the life of the queen mother is their life, and compared with Fang Cai, they dare not delay half a point.

After a short while, half a cup of thick black liquid was brought in.

"...... You hold on, the little prince still needs you......"

Mingyue raised the queen's head, brought the medicine cup closer, and poured it all down in one go.

She could clearly feel that the queen's breath at the moment had collapsed very weakly, and if she was careless, she would ...... She didn't dare to think about it anymore, her face turned pale, her lips trembled, and her heart was tumbling endlessly.

In the end, should I say it or not?

This news, used at this time, is not only a heart booster, but also a life talisman!

Mingyue's tears rippled, firmly holding the master's hand, and the cold temperature came.

The people on the couch can't hold it anymore......

She decided to take a gamble!

"Niangniang, the old man has died on the battlefield, the little son is young, the lady is lonely, and he still needs your care, what can they do without you...... Mother, you must hold on......"

On that pale face, he forced his eyes open.

Sweat trickled down her sideburns, and the queen opened her mouth slightly, her breath was weak and floating.

"Bright Moon...... You...... What did you say? ”

Tears welled up in Mu Ran's eyes.

"You...... Say...... Father and brother ......"

The dream of that soul trick resurfaced in my mind again.

"Take care of Shiqing and pity the orphaned mother."

"Original...... It's all true. ”

After speaking, the extremely tired eyes slowly closed, so tired...... Tired......

"!"

In the air, there was another terrible scream.

Emperor Yin was beating drums in his heart, his mood was restless, and there was an ominous premonition that spread in his heart.

…… Everything points to disaster...... Everything points to disaster......

For some reason, these words kept echoing in his mind. In the depths of his love, he couldn't care much more, kicked open the inner door, and walked straight to the edge of the bed before anyone could react.

The poor woman looked like ashes.

He grabbed her hand, feeling a chilling coldness.

"Lian'er, I'm here, I'm here to accompany you."

"Your Majesty, what are you ...... Alas......"

Xiao Xiazi was stopped outside the delivery room by Mingshan, and could only stand at the door and stomp her feet.

In an instant, Mingyue and Mingyan seemed to see a savior, their faces turned from sadness to joy, holding Empress Zheng's head, and crying happily: "Niangniang, Niangniang, the emperor has come to see you...... You see...... The emperor came to save you, you have saved ......"

At the same time, the person on the couch felt a warm current pass through his hand.

He was pumping true qi for her.

"Lian'er, hold on, give birth to the child for me, we don't have one child anymore, we can't lose the second one."

There was fear and anxiety in that voice.

But the queen turned a deaf ear.

She lay on the couch and was dying, no matter what happened in the outside world, she refused to move a single bit, and she didn't even want to open her eyes again.

"Doctor, the ginseng soup is here."

"Quick, give it to the queen!"

Emperor Yin took the lamp and said carefully: "I will come in person." ”

He forcibly drank the ginseng soup with her, his eyes wet for a moment, attached it to her ear, and said slowly:

"Lian'er, I'm sorry, it's not good for me, it's not good for you to enter the palace and suffer so much...... I promise you that I will protect you well in the future and be good to you for the rest of your life. ”

Speaking of the back, he unconsciously choked up.

Tears flowed down Emperor Yin's cheeks, shattered on the queen's face, and splashed in all directions, like crystal clear broken glass.

"Lian'er...... It's not good ......."

"If you push harder, will you? I don't want you to die......"

"The head is out!"

With the exclamation of the midwife, everyone was shocked.

"Niangniang is working harder, and she is about to come out...... Mother's hard work......"

Half-asleep, she only relied on the last trace of consciousness, tried her best, and a loud cry ran through the sky.

"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to Niangniang, you are a handsome little prince!"

The servants all wept with joy and wiped their tears secretly.

But almost at the same time, the queen's head hung down from Yin Jian's arms.

"Lian'er!"

Imperial Doctor Zhou didn't hear it well, and his body, which was still slumped on the ground, immediately sat up again, knelt tremblingly to the edge of the couch, and took her wrist to take a breath of relief.

He arched his hand upwards and replied:

"Don't worry, Saint, Niangniang is just exhausted and dizzy, wait for Weichen to prescribe some prescriptions to replenish qi and nourish blood, and then recuperate, and soon the body will be good and refresh......ed."

"That's it! Why don't you go soon? Suck! ”

"Hey...... Ay...... Be. ”

Emperor Yin put his mind at ease, and when he saw that Old Man Zhou was frightened and sweating profusely, he immediately smiled.

"The queen and prince are safe, you are also working hard, pass the order, reward the Imperial Physician Department, and the Imperial Physician of Jin Zhou is the order of the Sixth Grade Hospital."

Imperial Physician Zhou was shocked, and when he heard the reward and promotion, he was filled with joy and sorrow for a while, and hurriedly thanked him.

"Old minister, thank the emperor for Longen."

"Come, bring the little prince over and I'll take a look."

The little man who was covered with blood has already been cleaned at this moment, wrapped in ginger fine stripes of Shu brocade swaddling, his little face is white, he keeps sucking his thumb, and he looks very delicate.

"Here, give me a hug."

Emperor Yin loved it, and a warm smile appeared in his eyes.

The midwife carefully handed it over.

"Your Majesty, be careful, don't slip your hands."

Feeling the heavy weight and touching the temperature in the swaddling clothes, he moistened his eyes at the moment, and his eyes flashed with crystal, snow-colored, and he was silent for a long time with tears, very moved.

"This is my son-in-law."

"Lian'er, thank you for giving birth to a son-in-law for me."

The worry has not gone, the joy has come again, looking at the appearance of Emperor Yin, the bright moon is full of emotion.

The emperor was also amorous.

After a long time, Emperor Yin walked out of the inner hall.

The pace was much easier than when I entered the temple.

"All the palace people in the Fengqi Pavilion have served the queen for meritorious service, and they are all rewarded; The decree went on, the queen gave birth to the son of Yin Guo, and was canonized as the crown prince, the queen is virtuous, and she deserves her name, and she will be amnesty to the world, and the whole country will celebrate for 100 days! ”

Xiao Xiazi stood at the door, touched the cold gaze of his master, and suddenly lowered his head.

"Humph!"

"A slave is guilty, but his master is punished."

"I'll clean you up when I go back!"

He glanced around, his tone becoming very happy.

"Good life to serve the queen, there are your good ......"

"Yes."

Soon, Zong Zheng presented a book to report the birthday of the little prince, and Emperor Yin picked it up and looked at it, and he was happy again.

"It is worthy of being my child, and even this birthday is so similar to me."

In Fengqi Pavilion, a life-and-death struggle was experienced.

On the second day, the Queen Mother sent Yingyan to send a congratulatory gift.

Immediately afterwards, Concubine Yao, Concubine Yi and other palace concubines also personally brought heavy gifts and came to congratulate. Fengqi Pavilion has been closed for nearly half a year, but after production, it is like a market, much more lively than before.

The queen is always asleep.

Thinking of the impulsiveness in the daytime, Mingyue regretted it even more. If the master dies because of her, what face will she have to say goodbye to Madame?

Thinking like this, she only waited in front of the bed, not half a step, after a whole day of fatigue, her spirit could not hold on, so she lay on the edge of the bed, and fell asleep shallowly.

"Bright Moon ......"

In the middle of the third watch, the queen woke up quietly.

As soon as she moved, she felt a tearing pain under her body, and she gasped sharply.

"Bright Moon."

The man who was waiting suddenly woke up, and when he saw his master awake, his heart was overjoyed.

"Niangniang, you are awake, don't move, the doctor said that you need to take care of yourself, but what do you want to eat?"

The queen shook her head and spoke hoarsely.

"You help me sit up, I've been lying here for a long time, and my waist is about to bend."

"Yes Yes ......"

Mingyue leaned on the soft cushion, carefully helped her, took hot ginseng soup, served her to drink most of the bowl, raised her head, but found that the master's eyes were very strange, and he said unconsciously:

"Why does the mother look at the slave like this?"

"Slave ......"

"Don't be afraid, sit down, this palace has something to ask you."

Mingyue's hand paused, lowered her head, and her eyes rolled.

"Niangniang, it's not good to be a slave, your body is still thin now, there are some things, when your body is better, the slave and maid will ask you again."

The queen still looked at her in amazement.

Facing the pair of eyes, Mingyue was really a little flustered.

"Niangniang gave birth to the little prince, her energy is exhausted, she must be hungry, and the slave will make you some food."

"Come back!"

"Mother's ......"

The queen's eyes were hazy with tears, and she was distressed when she looked at her, and her tone was a little choked.

"Do you still want to hide it from me now?"

The two sides fell silent.

After a long time, Mingyue turned around silently, moved to the phoenix couch with difficulty, raised her head to look at the queen, buried her head in the palace skirt, tried her best to suppress her emotions, and her shoulders trembled.

"Slaves and maids do not intend to expire their masters."

She tucked her cheeks into her hands, trembling in pain.

"Silly girl......"

"This palace has already heard about this, but it is just a fool of itself and refuses to admit it! Farewell, Daddy's voice and smile are still in front of him, who would have thought that it would be goodbye......"

The queen sobbed with hatred, tears flowed endlessly, and her fine white teeth were clenched.

"This palace only hates, you can't slash the enemy!"

Mingyue raised her head, her eyes shining, extremely anxious and painful.

"You must take care of your body, now that the great compassion has been completed, the mother gave birth to a son-in-law, the emperor has ordained the prince, if the mother has three long and two short, let the little son and his wife do? Master and son, what about under the Nine Springs? ”

“……”

The people on the couch choked, but the tears in their eyes were connected, like a stream of water.

She stared out the window in a daze, a bright moon hanging high.

"My father and brother have been through a hundred battles and are invincible, and I have thought about it for a long time, so I always refuse to believe it. Mingyue, you go and inquire clearly, what the hell is going on? ”

"Although Niangniang is in the palace, she understands it in her heart."

On Mingyue's weak face, there is a sonorous color.

"Rest assured, even if the mother doesn't say it, the slave will not let the master and the son die in vain!"

"Hurry up, silly girl, get up quickly......"

This girl's heart should hurt more than hers.

She thought of the money out of the house, when she was in the backyard of the house, the sunset remained on the horizon, the twilight was four, the begonia flowers full of trees were sprinkled, the evening breeze was slow, and the cherry blossoms were floating.

The elder brother stood under the tree and made a promise to a woman in a green shirt:

"Don't worry, when I come back from the expedition, I will tell my mother, with the matchmaker asking you for marriage, I want three matchmakers and six certificates, a gift of ten miles of long streets, and marry you in a sedan chair."

It's a pity that after many years, what I have been waiting for is bad news!

"I know that you are destined for your brother, and my brother also likes to ...... with you"

"Mother, don't say it! Bright Moon in this life...... I am willing to serve my mother for the rest of my life. ”

After she finished speaking, she closed her eyes tightly, lowered her head, hid her painful look, and pulled the hem of her skirt tightly with her fist, like a silk thread ready to wander away at any moment.

"Don't cry...... In the end, it is still the palace that is not angry. ”

"No, no, no......"

The master and servant looked at each other, tears were hanging down their eyes, and the queen reached out and gently protected her.

"Shiqing has been pushed on the strings by the Queen Mother, and the widowed mother is still in the house, from now on, we will share the same hatred and hatred, and we can't watch the tragedy repeat."

The person in front of him nodded slowly.

"Mingyue knows."
