Because Mai Duo was weak and weak, Li Yuntong signaled that she didn't have to answer her question, and looked at Benma.

Benma replied respectfully, "It is precisely because I am about to give birth that I have to carry my master outside." ”

Li Yuntong still doesn't understand, "What is the truth of this?" ”

Bu Chi explained to her in a low voice: "This side is different from the Tang Dynasty, in our Tubo, women are considered unclean to give birth, and if they stay in the house to give birth, it will bring bad luck, so whether it is a slave or a noble woman, they are all outside the house when they give birth." It's just that the aristocratic women will put some felt mats on the outside of the house, and the conditions are relatively better......"

"Huh?" Li Yuntong felt incredible, "Are they all born outside? Is this even the case in winter? ”

Buchi nodded and said with a wry smile: "Yes, so there are many slaves and children from poor families, if they are born in winter, often the mother and child will not survive." Even aristocratic women, if they give birth for too long, have frozen to death or frostbite outside. ”

Isn't there anyone who disputes that? This is too cruel, no wonder the land is almost the same, but the population of Tubo is much smaller than that of the Tang Dynasty, so if you have children like this, I am afraid that most of them will die. How does this work? You carry her in and let her go into the house to give birth. The more Li Yuntong spoke, the more angry she became, and her body trembled a little later.

Then Benma and the others just looked at each other, lowered their heads one by one, and no one obeyed Li Yuntong's order, and a handmaid stuck her head out from the curtain not far away, "Wait a while, it will be laid out immediately." ”

Mai Duo smiled weakly at Li Yuntong, "Jiamusa, this is the rule, only the children born in this way can survive the past, they are chosen by the gods, and they can be the people of the snowy region." ”

Speaking of the back, there was a bit of desolation in her words.

Although it is only July, but in the snowy July, it is already very cold at night, she has been weak for these months, if this child is born outside, the possibility of survival is very small, and even she may not be able to save her life.

The last time she gave birth to a daughter, she was nine deaths, this time, can she still have that kind of good luck?

"Don't listen to those inhumane rules, our Datang women give birth, they are all in the house, and I don't see anyone who will have bad luck, except for not letting men enter the delivery room, there are no such sayings at all, and even some men will stay outside the house, waiting for their daughter-in-law to give birth, and they are all fine, Tubo's rules are not suitable, and they have to be changed. Let them carry you into the house, are you going to die? ”

However, no one listened to Li Yuntong, and even, those handmaidens took a few steps back.

Li Yuntong gritted his teeth and said: "You are also women, do you want to give birth outside in the future?" Start with Mai Duo today, and you will benefit from it tomorrow. I swear in the name of Princess Datang that if there is any bad luck or bad thing, I will bear it with all my might, you don't have to worry, quickly carry her in. ”

Although it was only the first time they met, she felt the same way as Mai Duo's situation.

After all, she is also a woman, and sooner or later she will have a time to give birth, if she does not win these rights early, when she is about to give birth, I am afraid it will be difficult to make decisions.

She doesn't like the feeling of putting her life in the hands of others, at that time, the people who can protect her will not be the master, and the people who can be the masters are the Tubo people who believe in maintaining this rule, whether it is for herself or herself, she must let Mai Duo into the house today to give birth and keep her safe.

After listening to what Li Yuntong said, Benma moved a few steps forward and held Mai Duo, while the other maids were still hesitating.

"Do you know what will happen if anyone doesn't listen and do what I say? Whoever does not obey the order will be immediately pulled out and whipped for thirty, regardless of life or death. Li Yuntong said coldly.

Seeing that she was serious, the maids and servants hurriedly carried Maiduo back to the house in order to save their lives.

Mai Duo's face turned pale, and he stopped them in a loud voice: "This, how can this be done? Stop, stop. If the palace is doomed because of me, I will not be able to atone for his sins even if I die. ”

"Foolishness! You don't have to stop, carry her in. Li Yuntong still ordered the handmaidens to carry her into the house," ...... If there will be bad luck because of the production in the house, how can the national fortune of Datang be so prosperous? You can go in and wait for delivery with peace of mind, otherwise you are like this, but I am afraid that you will not be able to endure it before you are born. ”

Mai Duo still hesitated, Benma persuaded her: "Master, you just listen to Jiamusa, you are like this, it is difficult for the little prince to be born safely, not to say, if something goes wrong, what should Princess Zeren do?" ”

Thinking of her delicate daughter, Mai Duo let go of her hand and lay back on her shoulder.

However, when the two stable women heard that they were going to deliver the baby in the house, they refused to enter the house, and kowtowed to Li Yuntong again and again, and the older one said: "Jia Musa, I can't help it, if we give her birth in the house, we will all be blamed by the gods and will be unlucky." Please spare the slaves and maids, the slaves and maids cannot go in to deliver her, and they will have blood mold for eight lifetimes. The slaves and maidservants are willing to be whipped, but they dare not bring bad luck to their children and grandchildren! ”

Seeing that these people were so ignorant, Li Yuntong knew that it was impossible to persuade them to stay, even if they were forced to enter, it would be impossible to deliver the babies smoothly, so he turned his head and instructed Bu Chi, "You go back quickly, bring the few stable women I brought from Datang, and let them help deliver the babies." By the way, find the doctor to prepare some medicinal materials for giving birth to a child, and bring them together. ”

After speaking, she said to Benma, who came out to see the situation: "You find a few servant women who have given birth, prepare the corresponding things first, and let them take over when the stable woman arrives later." ”

Benma nodded in a panic, "Okay, the slave will go and call someone." ”

Fortunately, hot water, white cloth, scissors, etc. were all prepared, and under Benma's command, the people in the Maiduo courtyard were all prepared.

Seeing that Mai Duo was getting weaker and weaker, Li Yuntong asked people to feed her a few mouthfuls of ginseng soup to encourage her to persevere.

"I haven't gone through these things and I don't understand them. But think about it, when you were reborn last time, what did those stable women ask you to do? You have to stay awake, don't let yourself faint, and if you feel tired, rest for a while......"

Li Yuntong told Mai Duo what he knew, a little bit of knowledge about childbirth, whether it was useful or not, maybe it was her calm eyes, maybe it was her gentle tone, maybe it was the effect of the bowl of ginseng soup, Mai Duo was gradually not as scared as before.

She looked at Li Yuntong and smiled weakly: "This time, thanks to Jia Musa." I didn't expect you, a princess of the Tang Dynasty, to be willing to blame me for being a Tibetan woman without fear of the gods...... When I give birth to him, I will definitely kowtow to you and give you a lantern to pray for......"

In just one sentence, she divided it three or five times before she finished speaking.

Li Yuntong stopped her from going on, "You raise your spirits first, and when Wen Po comes, you will have the power to ......."

Before she could finish speaking, Mai Duo started to cry out, "Ouch, ouch".

Ram hurriedly persuaded Li Yuntong to go out, "I'm afraid she's about to give birth, Zanmeng, you better go out first, lest the delivery room be filthy and collide with you." ”

Li Yuntong also knew that she was not suitable to stay in the delivery room anymore, otherwise it would be too unruly, what she did today was already a very deviant move for the Tubo people, so she nodded, "Okay, let's go out first, you point to someone to take a look, why Buchi and they haven't come yet, if they are born, Wen Po is not there, but there is some trouble." ”

As he was talking, he saw one of Maiduo's maids come in happily and say, "Come, come, Wen Po is here." ”

Li Yuntong went out accompanied by Ram, and after a few more explanations to the stable women, he changed his clothes and quietly stayed in the flower hall next to the delivery room to drink tea and lunch.

It stands to reason that she can go back to her palace by this time, but because she is really not at ease, she stays.

At this time, it was almost dark, and at night on the snowfield, the temperature plummeted, and the cold hit people, and Dongqing, who came to wait, wrapped Li Yuntong in a cotton cloak, she still felt a little cold.

Thinking about it, if Maiduo gave birth in such weather, he was afraid of nine deaths, Li Yuntong couldn't help but secretly rejoice that he had made a quick decision.

Before she finished her meal, she saw Wang Wenpo hurriedly come in and say, "Princess, Mai Duo's palace mouth opened four fingers, but she showed her feet first, I'm afraid it's a little dangerous." ”

Li Yuntong didn't understand this, but looking at Wang Wenpo's expression, he knew that he was afraid that it would be bad, so he hurriedly asked, "How can I let her give birth to the child smoothly?" ”

Wang Wenpo shook her head and sighed, "The princess doesn't know, the head is the first to be born, and the feet are the first to be born in difficult labor, such a fetal position is very dangerous, plus the Maiduo nobles have been in the baby for these months, and they don't have any strength at all, this fetus, I'm afraid it will be difficult." The slave maid wants to ask, if there is really a case, protect the adult or the child? ”

Li Yuntong didn't think about it and said, "Of course it's Lord Bao...... You'd better think of it again, and it's better to keep both. ”

She smiled bitterly, "If I can't keep the child, Mai Duo will be sad and not say anything, but I am afraid that they will not believe that giving birth in the house is more beneficial to the mother, and in the future, it will be even more difficult for me to do things and talk in Tubo." ”

Dong Qing, who rushed over, also added, "What's more, maybe if our people give birth in Tubo in the future, it will be difficult to follow the rules of the Tang Dynasty, after all, their statement of bad luck is very general, and anything can be put into it." Even if we are not afraid, they will be afraid. ”

Wang Wenpo's face became solemn, and she saluted Li Yuntong and said, "Then the slave maid will slice the hundred-year-old ginseng and let the nobles take it first, so as to replenish their strength." Let's talk to a few more of them and see how it goes well. However, if it is such a toss, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the noble person to have children in the future. ”

Li Yuntong rubbed his eyebrows, "I'll talk about that later, let's get past the present first." ”

"Jiamusa, you must save my master, when she woke up, she talked to the slave maid, saying that she was fortunate to have you today, if it weren't for you, I was afraid that she wouldn't be able to live at this time. Now, only you can save her......" Not long after, Benma came running and pleading with tears in her eyes.

Li Yuntong was a little inexplicable, "Didn't the stable women say their ideas?" Why did you come to me when I wouldn't deliver a baby? ”
