Chapter 46: Birth
On March 3 of the fifth year of Jian'an, this day was special for Mo Yan and Liu Xie, and it brought vitality to the palace that had suffered from changes and was gloomy, but at the same time, it also planted a seed of rumors.
At that time, everyone in the Jiaofang Hall was very busy, the palace people didn't know how many basins of hot water they had changed, Yu Niang wiped sweat stains and tears countless times beside Mo Yan, Mo Yan was in pain, and grabbed Yu Niang's hand tightly: "I...... Can't give birth to ...... It hurts! Where is Hua Tuo? I want a C-section! ”
"Your Highness, watch your breath! Don't talk anymore, it's not good for the child or for Your Highness. "The midwife was also sweating profusely. Before the end of the day, the queen's abdominal pain did not stop, and her lower body was accompanied by amniotic fluid, and she was ordered to give birth to the queen. Now more than two hours have passed, she hasn't even seen the child's head, and if it drags it on, it will be a threat to both mother and son, not to mention that the person in front of her is the queen, if any accident happens, how can she afford it as a woman.
"Your Highness, don't be afraid, all mothers in the world will go through this catastrophe, Yu Niang and Chunyi are here to accompany Your Highness, and Your Majesty is also waiting outside. Your Highness listen to the midwife, and stop talking nonsense. ”
"Yu Niang, I hurt!" Mo Yan hissed in pain, she couldn't tell what was tears and what was sweat on her face, the two were combined, and a few strands of green silk on her forehead were soaked with sweat.
Liu Xie walked back and forth several times outside the house, he was restless and flustered, and Mo Yan's miserable scream was a sharp sword, stabbing him in the heart. He couldn't bear Mo Yan's pain, and he could only wait anxiously outside the house. Just as he was about to stretch out his hand to push the door open, he was stopped by everyone on the spot, "Your Majesty can't!" The women's delivery room can't enter! Your Majesty, please think about the Han family! ”
"She is suffering the pain of giving birth to a child inside, and I can't share the pain for her, so why should I wait outside? Get out of the way of me. "Liu Xie wanted to break free from the obstruction of these imperial physicians and chamberlains in front of him, but they all used all their strength, and Liu Xie's arms and thighs were all dragged by them and couldn't move." You guys! ”
"The ministers understand Your Majesty's friendship with the Queen, but Your Majesty, a woman's birth is a necessary process, and others cannot share the pain, if Your Majesty breaks in, regardless of whether it will affect the Queen's childbirth. What's more, His Majesty is the true dragon son of heaven, and he will never see the filthy blood and water. Your Majesty has just lost his courtiers and nobles in the first month, have you forgotten all this? Does Your Majesty really want the Han family to be in danger? ”
"You!"
"Dare to fight, I hope Your Majesty will think twice!"
"Huh!" Liu Xie had no choice but to give up and sighed heavily. "You can let go, I can't go in."
Everyone looked at each other, until one of the chamberlains saw that His Majesty was gradually calming down and had no tendency to break through the door, so he let go of his hand, and then the rest of the chamberlains and the imperial doctor. Seeing that Liu Xie was only waiting outside, these people's nervous hearts relaxed slightly.
Liu Xie took advantage of the fact that these people thought that he would no longer break in, and quickly rushed in. The sudden arrival of His Majesty made the palace people who served and produced stunned.
Liu Xie was extremely nervous about Mo Yan, and he couldn't care about Mo Yan's "inconvenience" at this time. He directly pulled open the veil that covered him, and before he could see clearly, he was smashed by a wet cloth head-on, "Get out!" Thoughts of love! Give him the piano, I'll ...... Yes! To listen to "Mountains and Flowing Water"! Yes! ”
"Okay, I can. Midwife, I want her to be well, the child is not important, the important thing is her. ”
"The slave obeys."
Liu Xie took the wet cloth and retreated to the door, Chunyi hurriedly took the piano, Liu Xie sat on the ground and stroked the strings, and the melodious sound of the piano poured out. Mo Yan on the bed, I don't know if it's because of what Liu Xie said, "I want her to be well, the child is not important, the important thing is her." Moved and inspired her, it was this song "Mountains and Flowing Water" that reminded her of the Qingyan Palace that day.
"Jade Niang, help me! I'm going to give birth to him! Mo Yan was determined to overcome the pain of giving birth, the sound of the piano outside the house was tactful and hazy, she used Yu Niang's hand to exert force, and when the pain was unbearable, she bit it.
Seeing this, the midwife hurriedly asked the queen to adjust her breathing. "Your Highness, huh...... Suck...... Keep it up again! The slave maid saw the head of the little prince, and His Royal Highness held on! Call...... Suck...... Call...... Suck ......"
"Hmm...... Ah......h
The sound of the piano changed sharply, and when Liu Xie played, he was sweating like Mo Yan, and when the last note fell, there was a baby's cry in the house. "Woo Woo Woo Woo ......"
Mo Yan was exhausted, her eyelids were heavy, and she couldn't wait to close her eyes and sleep for two days and two nights, but as a new mother, she wanted to see her child too much. "Let me see, it's a boy or a girl?"
The midwife gently carried the baby to the queen's side, "His Royal Highness, Hexi, it's a little prince." Mo Yan was supported by Yu Niang, got up with difficulty, and took the child from the midwife, who was afraid that the queen would be weak and did not dare to let go.
"This is my son?" The soft and small, unopened eyes of the little life in her arms, such a feeling is wonderful, non-words can be expressed, Mo Yan looked at the baby in disbelief and dropped a kiss on his forehead. "Little thing, it tortures me to death. Eh, I thought it would be a little princess. Boys can be naughty. ”
"Your Highness, Your Majesty, he ......"
"Yu Niang, I'm sorry just now, does it matter if you want your hand? Let him in. "When Mo Yan thought of Liu Xie breaking in, I don't know if I saw anything, her face was crimson because of the production, but at this time, her face was even more red, and the considerate Jade Niang covered her with a futon." A little injury, where can it compare to the pain of His Highness giving birth to a child. Yu Niang, please invite Your Majesty in. ”
Liu Xie heard the cry and almost pushed the door in, until Yu Niang went out to greet him before stepping into the door. The first thing that caught my eye was Mo Yan on the bed, and the first thing Liu Xie said was about her. "I know that you are very painful and tired, and you have worked hard, but fortunately, you and the child are fine."
Liu Xie held Mo Yan's hand tightly with one hand, and wiped the traces on her face with the other hand, I don't know if the pain of giving birth has not disappeared, or Liu Xie's actions moved her, Mo Yan blinked his eyes, and tears flowed down the trend. Even in the 21st century, there will still be husbands who ask about their children first instead of their wives, even if the children born by Mo Yan are not his flesh and blood, but he is still a first-time father, and what is even more rare and valuable is that the person he asked first was Mo Yan.
"Why are you crying? Didn't cry too much just now? ”
The tone of both care and joking made Mo Yan laugh. "Give your child a name."
Liu Xie paced back and forth in the house with the child in his arms, and kissed him lightly on the little cheek. "Liu Cheng, inheriting the blood of the Liu family, following the ambition of the Han family. I'm still young, so let's pick up words when he's older. ”
"Liu Cheng?" Mo Yan softly called his name, inheriting the blood of the Liu family? Looking at Liu Xie's happy face, Mo Yan bit her lip and said nothing, Liu Xie liked children more than she imagined, the arrival of this child swept away the sorrow in the palace, but Mo Yan was obsessed, originally Dong Lin's children could also stay, Liu Xie's flesh and blood are more suitable for this name...... Whose flesh and blood this is, Mo Yan is clear. What will happen to the child in the future? And the agreement with Liu Xie is over perfectly today, when she is well recuperated, can she really go? Although she hated that person, but the child was born to her, can she really give up the company for more than nine months?
"Woo wow wow ......" Liu Cheng cried loudly in Liu Xie's arms, and Liu Xie's hugging was all useless.
"I'll do it." Mo Yan took over the child from Liu Xie, the child is still so young, it is inseparable from the biological mother, about the agreement, let's talk about it later.
As soon as Mo Yan hugged the child, the child really stopped crying. "Cheng'er is good, mother hugs, don't cry, don't cry."
"I have a son with the queen today, you all have merit, go back and receive the reward."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Your Highness, let the slave maid take it down and feed the little prince to breastfeed."
"Oh, good......" Mo Yan just wanted to hand over the child to the palace people, she frowned slightly and withdrew her hand. I'm his mother, should I feed it? ”
"But His Royal Highness has just given birth, his body is weak, and he is afraid of ......"
"How do you know if you don't try? You tell me what to do next. Your own children should be fed by themselves. ”
"That'...... The slave and maid know. If His Highness has no breast milk, she shall breastfeed her. ”
Mo Yan was holding the child in her arms and was about to take off her clothes when she remembered that there was a man next to her. Mo Yan took the wet cloth from Yu Niang's hand and smashed it at Liu Xie again. "Your Majesty, please go out."
This emperor who was invited out by the empress, I'm afraid he was the first, right? Liu Xie was waiting outside the house, he looked at the wet cloth in his hand, and smiled unconsciously, he obviously said that he wanted to let go of Mo Yan, it was Mo Yan who hurt him ruthlessly, and he was cold in the back. Why are you crazy today? Is it because the emotions in my heart have never gone away? But after giving birth to a child, he wanted to let Mo Yan leave the palace. If this only bond is gone, he Liu Xie will always have to be alone and face this crumbling Han dynasty alone, but he will keep his promise, and the child will be named Liu Cheng, which is his flesh and blood, and he will treat it as his own.
"Yu Niang, are women who have given birth so irritable? She gave birth to a child and suffered, so let her recuperate. Liu Xie raised his head, and the moist cloth was applied to his face, seemingly asking him inadvertently.
"The slave doesn't think that maybe His Highness is shy. Yes, the slave will take good care of His Royal Highness and the eldest son of the emperor. ”
