Chapter 174: The side concubine gives birth
On this day, the magpies on the branches of the trees chirped and the catkins fluttered and fell on the surface of the lake, looking from afar like thin snowflakes. The peach blossoms in the garden are blooming, red as colorful as the sun, white as snow.
Shen Xuerou sat in the gazebo and lowered her head to look at her high bulging belly, the smile in her eyes was a little more colorful than the peach blossoms.
Sunset was sitting next to Shen Xuerou, peeling grapes for her to eat.
"Master, I heard that when you are pregnant, eat more fruits, and your future children will have whiter and tender skin." Sunset said with a smile on the side.
Shen Xuerou took the peeled grape in her hand, put it in her mouth, and bit it gently.
Suddenly, Shen Xuerou only felt that her stomach was aching for a while, and the heart-wrenching pain made her can't help but cry out: "Ah, my stomach, come on!" ”
Sunset saw that the feelings on Shen Xuerou's face didn't seem to be quite right, and hurriedly helped her.
"Master, what's wrong with you? Isn't it going to be born? Sunset asked anxiously.
"It looks like I'm really going to give birth, ...... Call the midwife......" Shen Xuerou felt more and more intense pain hit, a layer of sweat oozed from her forehead, and she said intermittently.
Xu Ce, who was not far away, heard Shen Xuerou's shout and hurried over here.
"Really, take her back!" Sunset immediately urged.
Xu Ce didn't say anything more, immediately picked her up on tiptoe, and hurriedly carried her to the direction of the room. Sunset didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly ran to call the midwife to come over.
In the elegant and chic room, Shen Xuerou was hurriedly hugged in by Xu Ce and placed on the bed.
"Are you okay?" Xu Ce held her hand, and stretched out his sleeve to wipe her sweat in distress.
"Lord Wang...... Go and call the prince......" Shen Xuerou's stomach hurt terribly, but she didn't forget to let the prince come and see.
Xu Ce's hand that was originally wiping her sweat suddenly stiffened, and he put it down, and he went to find Jin Shaoming to come over according to her wishes.
Jin Shaoming was in Mu Lingyun's room at this time, and when he heard the news that Shen Xuerou was going to give birth, the two of them rushed over to Shen Xuerou's room together.
When they arrived, the two midwives were already here.
"Lord, princess, leave it to us here, then wait outside now." The midwife advised.
Jin Shaoming and Mu Lingyun had no choice but to retreat again.
What came out of the room was Shen Xuerou's heart-rending shout, and Jin Shaoming also tightened when she heard it. He paced up and down.
"Lord Wang, stop first, you are walking around like this, my eyes are almost stunning." Mu Lingyun couldn't help but say. And Mu Lingyun noticed at this time that Xu Ce was also standing aside, watching the movement in the room.
Mu Lingyun walked over quietly and asked him suspiciously, "What?" You're also worried about the safety of their mother and son! ”
Xu Ce nodded.
After coming for a long time, I heard the cry of the child falling to the ground.
"Wow wow!" The sound was crisp and pleasant.
"Is it a boy or a girl?" Jin Shaoming couldn't wait to ask.
"Congratulations to the prince for being a male doll!" The midwife held the child to Jin Shaoming, and Jin Shaoming directly took the child over.
The little doll was white and tender, his eyes were half-squinted, and he couldn't open them.
Jin Shaoming smiled with satisfaction, "I didn't expect it to be a boy again!" ”
Shen Xuerou was lying on the bed, and she made a weak voice, "Lord Wang...... I'd like to see him too. ”
Hearing this, Jin Shaoming hugged the child and put it in front of her, asking her to take a closer look.
When she saw the child, Shen Xuerou breathed a sigh of relief, this child's appearance did not look like Xu Ce, but it was somewhat similar to herself, especially the lip shape, as if carved out of the same mold as her.
"Congratulations, sister!" Mu Lingyun Lian also walked over with a light move and said hello to her.
"Thank you, sister." Shen Xuerou's face was pale, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a faint smile, fortunately, the child is also angry, she is a male doll, and she will also have a foothold in the prince's mansion in the future.
Xu Ce stood outside the room, he really wanted to go in to see Shen Xuerou, but he couldn't go in, so he had to stand stupidly and wait.
At this time, Sunset came out of the room with a basin of blood water.
Xu Ce also panicked when he saw the basin full of red blood, so he hurriedly took a step forward and asked her, "Sunset, how is Concubine Fang inside?"
"The side concubine and the little young master are both safe and safe!" Sunset replied with a smile.
Xu Ce suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as she was safe and sound, he was content.
It was night, Jin Shaoming stood in front of the window, looking at the crescent moon hanging in the night sky. Mu Lingyun walked over and asked in his ear, "Lord Wang, what are you thinking?" ”
Jin Shaoming turned his head, looked at Mu Lingyun, smiled, and said, "Xue Rou also gave birth, I was thinking, what name should I give that child." ”
Mu Lingyun also fell into silence, this name is quite a brain-consuming problem. She didn't have a good name for a while.
Jin Shaoming looked up at the bright stars, and suddenly had an idea, "How about calling Jin Ruoxing?" I hope he can shine like the stars in the sky! ”
Mu Lingyun heard this name, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Lord Wang, you should ask Shen Xuerou if she is willing to let her child be called by this name." After all, Shen Xuerou was the child's mother, and Mu Lingyun felt that she didn't have any right to speak.
"Good! Then I'll ask her tomorrow. A smile appeared on Jin Shaoming's face.
The mother was afraid of the wind, and the windows in the room were pasted with paper, Jin Shaoming walked in, and when he saw the darkness in the room, he took a chair and sat on the edge of the bed.
Shen Xuerou heard the movement and slowly opened her eyes, "Lord Wang! She called softly.
Jin Shaoming clenched her hand and said, "Xue Rou, you have worked hard, take a good rest." ”
Shen Xuerou nodded slightly, and at this time, Sunset came in with a bowl of wolfberry black chicken soup, "This is the tonic soup made by the kitchen for the side concubine, and the side concubine is invited to drink it." ”
"Give it to me!" Jin Shaoming took the initiative to help her feed the soup and drink. He took the bowl of steaming soup, scooped a spoonful, and handed it to Shen Xuerou's mouth, "Come, drink soup!" ”
Shen Xuerou looked at his tender eyes, and felt a little warm in her heart for a while, this was the first time he had treated her so gently.
In the past, Jin Shaoming rarely looked at her squarely, let alone took the initiative to feed the soup.
She opened her mouth slightly and drank the soup.
Jin Shaoming fed her spoonful after spoonful of it, until the bottom of the bowl was empty, and then placed the bowl on the table next to it.
"Lord Wang, you ...... I am so touched that you have been so kind to me all of a sudden! Shen Xuerou said, a tear flowed from the corner of her eye. She has been in the palace for so long, and she has tried many ways to attract Jin Shaoming's attention, but to no avail, Jin Shaoming has always only had Mu Lingyun in his heart. If it weren't for that, she wouldn't have thought about seducing other men.
Jin Shaoming gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Xue Rou, I'm sorry, I only love Ling Yun alone." Jin Shaoming knew that she had suffered a lot of grievances when she entered the palace, and she was also snubbed by him, but his heart had already been given to others, so he would not change his mind.
"I know, so, I envy the princess." Shen Xuerou said what was in her heart.
The corners of Jin Shaoming's mouth hooked up a smile, and said, "I gave the child a name, see if you like it or not." ”
"What's the name?" Shen Xuerou aroused her curiosity, she had been thinking about choosing a name for her child for a long time, but she couldn't come up with a nice name after thinking about it.
"Let's call it Jin Ruoxing, a starry star." Jin Shaoming said solemnly.
"Jin Ruoxing, Jin Ruoxing......" Shen Xuerou read it a few more times, and the more she read it, the more she felt that this name was elegant and chic, and she nodded in agreement, "It's still good for the prince, I think it's not as good as this one." ”
Shen Xuerou picked up the child, gently touched the child's forehead, and said with a smile: "Child, you have a name, your name is Jin Ruoxing, this is the name your father gave you!" ”
On the other side, Mu Lingyun sat bored in a daze.
The emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is in a hurry, Bihong saw Mu Lingyun looking so leisurely and complacent, and she only hated that iron could not be strong.
Bihong hurriedly said, "Princess." Why don't you go and take a look, the prince and the concubine are talking and laughing, I heard that he also fed her chicken soup with his own hands. ”
Mu Lingyun said disapprerovingly: "What if you feed the chicken soup, anyway, the prince's heart is not with him." She didn't think Jin Shaoming would empathize with Shen Xuerou because she helped him give birth to a son.
Bihong said again: "Princess, don't underestimate this bowl of chicken soup!" Sometimes the breakdown of a relationship starts little by little! ”
"You say my relationship with the prince will break down?" When Mu Lingyun heard this, she finally reacted, she raised her head and glared at Bihong.
Bihong stuck out her tongue, She also knew that she had said something unlucky, scratched her head and said: "I'm also thinking about you, in case this side of the concubine kicks her nose and eyes, and takes this opportunity to win over the prince, what do you say!" ”
"I don't want to pay attention to this, I'm going to see Xiao Qingye, in the past few days, Bai Chenxi's wound doesn't know how healed, I have to go and see." After Mu Lingyun finished speaking, he ran to the room where Bai Chenxi lived.
Bihong wanted to go with her, but thought that there were still two children to watch here, so she had to stay.
The peach blossoms in the courtyard pressed the branches, Bai Chenxi stood under the peach blossom tree and looked up, and he could smell the fragrance of peach blossoms in his nose.
Mu Lingyun quietly came behind Bai Chenxi and patted him on the shoulder.
"Hey, what are you looking at!" Mu Lingyun looked at him so attentively, and couldn't help but look up at the treetops like him, only to see that the little green leaf was coiled on the branch of the peach blossom tree, closing his eyes and concentrating, the emerald green little tail shook from time to time, which was very cute and interesting.
