Chapter 55: The Twins

"What are you talking about......" The palace gate creaked open, and inside the gloomy palace gate, the dressed Concubine Qi Shu stood inside the door, her face uncertain. It is not only disappointment and anger, but also shock and regret.

The chamberlain was so frightened that the rain dripped on the ground, and he kowtowed again and again: "It's been half an hour, and the imperial doctor has gone now." The imperial concubine is weak in pain, and she is now waiting for our mother to preside over the overall situation. ”

Concubine Qi's face was fleeting, and she turned into a calm group, gently straightened the golden phoenix and Tucui hairpin on her head, and said, "Go and pass the stable woman and the nurse to the Yufu Palace." This is great news for the emperor's heir, and inform Your Majesty quickly. The younger sisters also go to the Yufu Palace and wait. ”

Everyone should be, and the six palaces were instantly busy because of the imperial concubine's birth.

When the pillow spring arrived, Mu Beiyi had already entered the hall. In addition to the main seat in the hall, only the positions of Concubine Qi Shufei and Yajieyu were set up, and the rest of the people were waiting under the eaves. The expressions on the faces of several people were a little depressed, and they were all silent, and the humid air was filled with Shi's groans. If this mean imperial concubine wins the prince today, it is almost equivalent to winning the throne. What will the days be like after that...... The ladies of the six palaces didn't dare to think about it, but prayed in their hearts, begging God to open their eyes and let the imperial concubine give birth to a princess.

Pillow Chun touched a cold bracelet on his hand, and looked at the butterfly embroidered on Liu Anran's neckline in a daze, all of which were gloomy and gloomy.

Shi Shi was not born well, and only saw his mother-in-law and the imperial doctor coming in and out, his face gloomy. From the morning until noon, Pillow Spring's stomach became hungry, and in the intermittent moaning, he heard the sound of cooing in his own body. Pillow Chun timidly raised his head, but saw that the entire Yufu Palace was extremely nervous, everyone held their breath and stared, it was inconvenient to speak, and they waited patiently.

The sound in the delivery room was as sad as a crack, making it hard to believe that such a dying sound came from the mouth of the unrivaled imperial concubine who was arrogant and beautiful in the past.

The imperial city was covered in smoke and dust as if it were covered by a curtain of rain.

This waited for another half day, until it was dark and the rain was not light. Then the imperial doctor came out and said that the imperial concubine should not wait any longer, and implored His Majesty to decide.

Everyone was shocked.

In this case, "it is not advisable to wait" is very serious. The implication...... Whether to cut off the son or the mother.

When Lian Yueyang heard this, the hairs on his body stood up in an instant. She clenched her veil tightly and stood outside the door of a carved peony outside the hall, looking deeply at the wet shoes under her feet.

Mu Beiyi's throat moved, but he didn't speak.

"Your Majesty......" Concubine Qi gently stroked her chest, her complicated bun was meticulous, and she gently urged, "Your Majesty ......"

"......" Mu Beiyi closed his eyes lightly.

"Your Majesty!" The figure behind him suddenly flashed, and a steady woman crawled out with a roll, "...... Born and born! …… Emperor...... The concubine is safe! ”

Concubine Qi Shufei heard the sound crooked and fell into the soft chair. Her face was completely discolored, her nails dug into her flesh, as if her soul had been dissipated, and she only murmured, "Congratulations, Your Majesty." ”

The steady woman lowered her head to the ground, unable to see her expression, and her voice was intermittent: "Imperial Concubine Niangniang...... gave birth to a pair of little princes......"

This sentence was like thunder, bursting in the hearts of every concubine present.

Lian Yueyang seemed to have been drained of his strength, leaning lightly outside the hall, leaning on the back of the door, and couldn't stop wheezing.

A grandmother opened the curtain, came out with a huge golden brocade in her arms, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this is the double prince of the imperial concubine." ”

Pillow Spring's eyes were dry and blinked. She looked at the bat embroidery on the swaddling clothes and thought about something.

Everyone sensed that something was wrong, and the whole hall was so quiet that you could hear the pins falling. Pillow Chun's heart was inexplicably filled with a strange feeling, his feet couldn't help but feel cold, and his hair was scratching his neck uncomfortably. She raised her hand to scratch the broken hair from her neck, her eyes drooping.

It's clearly about the two princes, how can they only hold one swaddling baby in front of them? The swaddling clothes are so big and so thick, why can't I hear the sound of the baby crying?

The grandmother trembled softly and said, "The little princes are weak...... Please also ask Your Majesty to cover the doors and windows and look carefully. ”

Mu Beiyi listened to his intuition and felt wrong, and hesitated and handed his eyes to Concubine Qi Shu: "Bao'er go and hug me to see." ”

The name of Concubine Qi Shu he shouted shows that Mu Beiyi has the power of an emperor, but he is already a little panicked in the matter of heirs.

Concubine Qi Shu's hands and feet were cold and she stood up, and the contrast between her lipstick lips and her pale face was particularly weird, and she only said according to her words: "Concubine...... Compliance. She took two steps with difficulty, and went up to take the unusually large swaddling clothes, which seemed to be a little heavy. I saw that his expression was nervous, and he opened it and only glanced at it.

There were two strange cries like spring cats from the splendid swaddling clothes.

Concubine Qi Shu screamed, and then she was thrown away like a thunderbolt.

The mother groaned and hurriedly caught it. She looked at her old age, and she should have seen all the things in the world, but she still trembled with fear for some reason. Mama reluctantly lifted the swaddling clothes and knelt upward.

Concubine Qi Shufei was already frightened, holding the red pillar in the hall and trembling, her chest couldn't stop rising and falling. She turned her eyes around twice, her eyes changing with suspicion and panic, and then she gasped, and her eyes were red with tears. She coughed lightly and said loudly: "The little prince of the imperial concubine is weak, so the doors and windows in the palace should be closed, and it will rain heavily today...... Sisters, go back to the palace by yourself! ”

Pillow Chun couldn't enter the inner hall, only to see the huge crimson temple door closed in front of her eyes. There are only Mu Beiyi, Qi Shufei and Yajieyu in the hall. She looked at Lian Yueyang, who was leaning against the wall outside the door, and cast a searching look.

Lian Yueyang shook his head.

The concubines only knew that the imperial concubine Shi's birth was not good, but they couldn't see what was going on, and left one after another according to their words. Pillow Chun stepped forward and helped Lian Yueyang: "Sister." ”

Lian Yueyang was both frightened and puzzled, holding Zhu Chun's wrist with his cool hand, and said in a low voice: "You don't want to look at me like that...... I don't know why...... If it's because of her wind and heat, then I'm really compelled to do it! Today...... Today's Events...... It's not about me! ”

"Sister, don't talk about it." Pillow Chun pulled her and even made a handkerchief cover her mouth, "If there is any possibility, leave this place first." ”

Lian Yueyang trembled, nodded reluctantly, and the two helped each other to walk into the rain. After only two steps, he heard the voice of Shi's inquiry in the hall: "Your Majesty...... What about the concubine's little prince...... The children of the concubines ......"

Her voice was hoarse and pitiful.

Then he took two more steps in the rain.

I only heard Shi's desperate and terrible screams piercing the gloomy sky, as if I had seen a ghost and was frightened, like a sharp blade scraping into Pillow Chun's ears.
