Chapter 135
When a woman gives birth, no matter how much preparation she has made in advance, she will still be panicked and scared when it comes to the end, especially if she gives birth to her first child. [Full text reading. Because of his big belly, he didn't bother to think about it in the first month of the New Year, he only showed up at the banquet and returned to the palace, and others looked at the queen's towering belly, and they wouldn't say anything about it.
On the fifteenth day of the first month, Wang Ronghe got up, saw that there was no sign of stomach seizures, so he asked Wuwu to fetch the lanterns, she said that she would make a lantern for His Majesty every year, although the expected date of delivery was around the Lantern Festival, but Wang Ronghe also did a little while he could do it before, so as not to fail.
Wu Xi once asked suspiciously, "Your Majesty will only care about Niangniang's belly, I look at the restless sleeping all day, more nervous than Niangniang, will you remember this lantern?" ”
"He doesn't remember it's his business, I don't remember it's mine." Wang Ronghe said with a smile, "Wait until this lantern is ready, quietly take it to the Qianqing Palace and hang it, and see when Your Majesty can see it?" ”
"Then I'm afraid that after the full moon of His Royal Highness, His Majesty will have the heart to pay attention to other things." Wu said with a smile.
Wang Ronghe bowed his head and smiled, this year's Lantern Festival, because it is almost the same as the day the child is expected to be born, Wang Ronghe made a baby lamp, a fat doll with silk ties, red cheeks, wearing a tiger head hat on his head, lotus arms and legs, and sitting on the lotus tray with a majestic jade Ruyi group, looking very gratifying.
It was probably done with emotion, and after Wang Ronghe painted the face of the doll, he always felt that his child should look like this when he was born. For a while, I was a little reluctant to send it out, but I still said that there was no disease, "Your Royal Highness is raised in front of Niangniang, Niangniang can see it every day, Your Majesty has every opportunity, and you may not be able to see Your Royal Highness every day, this lantern is hung in the Qianqing Palace, but your Majesty can also see His Royal Highness from time to time." ”
Wang Ronghecai smiled that the main work of the lantern had been completed in advance, and the Lantern Festival was taken out only for the final inspection, and then the lantern tassel and the lantern riddle were hung.
Wang Ronghe copied a small lantern riddle with his own hands, and hung it on the edge of the lamp tassel after the thin thread was threaded. Let someone hang it up for him to see," turn around and say to Zhang Cheng, don't hang this lamp high, and the best place to watch it is at eye level." Wang Ronghe explained.
"Yes." Gu Yanxi took the lantern and prepared to send it to the Qianqing Palace in person.
Wang Ronghe saw that there was no sign of starting her body, so she asked her to change into a dress, the Lantern Festival banquet, she still had to show her face, and the layers of drape were not yet fully on her body, Wang Ronghe held her stomach, "Why do you feel a throbbing pain in your stomach?" ”
"Niangniang sit down first, go and ask the imperial doctor to come." He sat down with Wang Ronghe in his arms and said, methodically taking off the layers of drape that he had just put on.
Xu Duzhong came over, and hastily asked Wang Ronghe to take the pulse, "Niangniang, there are signs of production, and don't worry, wait." ”
"Will there be birth if there are signs of production?" Wang Ronghe leaned on the disease-free arms and asked, it wasn't always painful, but she was cold and smoking, and she broke out in a cold sweat.
She has been upright and steady since she was a child, and she looks confident in everything, and when she rarely has a gaffe, she is only graceful and unhurried outside, and she does not force herself at all in her own small yard, and she raises herself delicately, and even the bitter medicine is difficult to eat, and those who have to take pills are most afraid of pain.
She can only imagine the pain of childbirth.
"Maybe it will be launched soon, maybe it will take a day or two to start." Xu Duzhong said, "Some people give birth for three days. ”
"It's been painful for three days?" Wang Rong and Hua Yan asked.
"If it doesn't happen, the pain is time-divided, from now on, the palace people should record the time of each pain of the mother, and when the pain is frequent, you can go to the delivery room and let the midwife check whether the road is open." Xu Duzhong said.
"If Niangniang still has the strength, if she walks around in the hall, she can also speed up production."
"I can't stand up when it hurts, how to walk." Wang Rong and Dao.
"Let two or three powerful people help the mother to go." Xu Duzhong said, "Don't worry, Niangniang, the minister is here, always observing." ”
Wang Ronghe fell to the disease-free and broken, and when he was in pain, he really felt miserable and helpless, and he didn't remember the pain when he gave birth without disease, but the girl was most afraid of pain since she was a child, and she really had to suffer now.
Disease-free whispered to comfort her. "Girl, if you think about something else, think of something happy, it won't hurt so much."
"Think about the past in the boudoir, go to Beizhuang in the spring to fly kites, horse racing, in the summer I scraped ice to make ice bowls, in the autumn Xiǎo jiě had to ask the servants up and down the family to pin chrysanthemums in their buns, I looked at it and laughed, speaking of which, I still don't know why the girl thinks it is funny to have chrysanthemums pinned to her head? And in the winter, the girl will pick up the wine buried in the soil in the spring and watch the snow around the fireplace. ”
Wang Ronghe listened to the disease-free talk about their interesting stories in the boudoir, and his body was still in pain, and a smile appeared on his face, "At that time, I saw that the literati in the book were all kinds of exquisite, and the life was funny and flavorful, and I thought when I would try it to be a flavor." ”
"Actually, the first few years of sake were not made, but it tasted sweet water." Wang Ronghe said, "At that time, there was no glass at home, so I sat in the pavilion with ventilation on all sides, drinking sweet water and watching the snow, thinking that it was this flavor, but it was nothing more than that." ”
"Actually, in the first few years, the girl's wine was not brewed, and it was sour, and it couldn't be eaten at all." Wuzhi cried and said with a smile, "Every time it snows, the old man first takes the eldest young master to the place where the girl buried the wine, and pours it before the wine is finished, and puts sweet fruit dew into it, so that he can wait for Xiǎo Jiě to dig wine and enjoy the snow with great interest." ”
Wang Ronghe shed tears when he heard this, but said with a smile, "It is my blessing to have such a father and brother." ”
"The girl is a blessed man." Wu said without illness, "Your Royal Highness will come out smoothly, and Your Highness will also feel sorry for your mother." ”
The old lady also came over when she heard the news, and when she saw Wang Ronghe's expression, she knew what was going on, and stepped forward to grab Wang Ronghe's hand, "Niangniang, don't worry, don't be afraid, in a while, Your Royal Highness will be able to come out to see your mother." ”
Wang Ronghe grabbed the old lady's hand with his backhand, "Grandmother, I hurt so much." ”
"It won't hurt later." The old lady said. She and the disease-free one supported Wang Ronghe, "Niangniang hold on." ”
Wang Ronghe reluctantly got up, Li Qiu was circling outside the hall, and caught a big palace maid coming in from outside the hall, so he stopped and asked. "What kind of charter is Niangniang now? When am I going to inform Your Majesty? ”
Zhu Yijun said early in the morning that he would notify him as soon as there was any movement in Kunning Palace, in fact, on weekdays, he was already in Kunning Palace at this time, but there was a big banquet on the Lantern Festival today, so His Majesty didn't come.
But Li Qiu is a person from Kunning Palace, and when to inform His Majesty that he has to listen to Niangniang, he is very clear about this.
Wu Zhi glanced at him, "You wait, I'll ask Niangniang." ”
Wang Ronghe was able to walk slowly at first, and when it was painful, he couldn't help but sit on the ground, the old lady had always pitied her, she had never said anything serious since she was a child, but now she had a straight face, "There is no mother who does not feel pain when she gives birth, the mother loves Jiaojiao so much, what should I do when it is time to give birth?" For the sake of His Royal Highness, Niangniang can't bear the pain at all? ”
Wang Ronghe gritted her teeth and insisted, and when she insisted, the old lady praised a few words heartily.
Without worry, he asked if he informed His Majesty, Wang Ronghe looked at Xu Duzhong, and Xu Duzhong said that there was still some time before production, but it was also a critical time for production.
Production is a woman's ghost gate, life and death, everyone has to show their original form, no, the original graceful and generous queen turned out to be just a delicate little girl who was afraid of pain. The coaxing and persuasion of the grandmother's loyal servants here is the labor pain before childbirth, and it looks unbearable.
According to His Majesty's favor for the queen, Xu Duzhong thought that the queen should call His Majesty over immediately, so he also gave a thoughtful talk. In the past, there was no reason for anyone to call His Majesty over in labor pains, so should He accompany him and wait?
"Let's not go and tell Your Majesty first." was thinking like this, but when he heard Wang Ronghe say this, Xu Duzhong was a little surprised.
Wang Ronghe took a deep breath and suppressed the pain in his abdomen, "Today is the Lantern Festival, Your Majesty has its own journey in the previous dynasty, and you are not about to give birth in a hurry, why should you alarm Your Majesty." ”
"It's not too late to inform Your Majesty when I enter the delivery room." Wang Ronghe said, she turned her head to Furong and the others again, and told them that they would not enter the delivery room but serve outside when they gave birth, "If the Queen Mother comes, if I give birth immediately, you just need to serve well, if you wait for half an hour, I have not yet given birth, you must persuade the Queen Mother to go back to the palace and wait." ”
"Except for the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces and Your Majesty, the rest of the people can't enter my Kunning Palace today, do you know?" Wang Ronghe said.
"Don't worry, it's all provincial." Fleur said.
"I've handed over everything outside the delivery room to you, and if you do a good job, if you don't do well, I will only ask you." Wang Ronghe looked at her coldly.
"Mother, just wait and see." Furong stabilized her mind and said, knowing that this time was a test given to her by her mother, if she passed the future, it would be easy to say, if she went on a business trip, I am afraid that Kunning Palace would not have a place for her to stand in the future.
Not to mention the queen's wisdom and generosity, the lord of the harem, it depends on His Majesty's proper and always loving Niangniang, even the blind should know that there is no better place to serve than Kunning Palace.
Wang Ronghe was in pain for another hour, his back was wet with sweat, and when he saw that the meal was up, Xu Duzhong said that Niangniang wanted to eat something, and she would have the strength to wait for a while, whether it was simmering noodles in chicken soup or porridge boiled with fresh abalone, Wang Ronghe shook his head and said no.
The old lady holds the porridge bowl. "Niangniang, you can eat a bite of fresh abalone in winter, even if you live by the sea, it is not easy, because Niangniang likes this bite, Your Majesty let people go down to the sea in the middle of winter to touch the abalone, and then chilled all the way into Beijing, presented to Niangniang, Niangniang just looked at this thing is not easy to come by, and should eat a few bites. So many people's efforts too. ”
Wang Rong and Mian Li drank a few sips, and still had the strength to say to the old lady, "Grandmother obviously told me that in winter, the sea is warmer than the shore. ”
"It's warm, but it's also cold. It's not easy to go to the sea to make a living in the winter. The old lady said, "Obediently, drink two more sips, and you will have strength in a while." ”
Xu is used to the pain, Wang Ronghe seems to be not as incomprehensible as at the beginning, although the pain seems to be borderless, Wang Ronghe asked Xu Duzhong to take the pulse again, and determined that it would take some time, Wang Ronghe said, "Go and get hot water, while you are not born yet, wipe my body, so as not to be unable to get water for a month after birth." ”
The midwife was selected by the Shanggong Bureau, but His Majesty's harem, Niangniang was the first child, and the four midwives were excited and frightened, but as soon as they came to Kunning Palace, Niangniang made it clear that she would not enter the delivery room, and the midwife would stay in peace and not get close, and they were worried that there was no chance to perform.
Wang Rong and nature couldn't talk to them, but they could only say softly when they waited for the meeting, "Now there is still some time to give birth, and there is always a pain in this stomach. ”
The hot towel heated the pores, and Wang Ronghe sighed, "It's loose." ”
"Mother, you can't relax." The old lady said.
Changing into sweat-absorbing bedclothes, the old lady touched the material, "Why is it so thin?" ”
"Thin clothes are good for sweat absorption, and when the child comes out, change into thick bedclothes." Wang Ronghe said. The hair is also loosened and braided into large braids.
Xu is baby in the belly is sure that the mother is ready, and when Wang Ronghe is cleaned up, he has frequent attacks, Wang Ronghe can't straighten his waist in pain, and the midwife looks at it for a while and says, "You can go to bed and lie down." ”
Wang Ronghe asked Xu Duzhong to also enter the delivery room, and the midwife said, "Niangniang, this woman gave birth, and only let the doctor come in as a last resort, why did she let the imperial doctor in so early?" ”
"It's not in the way, Imperial Doctor Xu has to know the progress here, and when there is a real problem, he won't ask three questions and not know, which will affect the diagnosis."
Xu Duzhong silently took out the embroidered belt from his sleeve and blindfolded his eyes, he didn't know why the queen trusted him so much, and even trusted him more with the midwife when it came to childbirth, and he didn't know if his temporary gynecological medical skills could come in handy.
Zhu Yijun came down from the banquet, and before he went back to the Qianqing Palace to change his clothes, he asked the queen about the situation today, and Li Qiu from Kunning Palace ran all the way, "Your Majesty, the mother is about to give birth." ”
Zhu Yijun pushed people away and hurriedly went to Kunning Palace.
Before entering the hall, he heard Wang Ronghe's terrible shouts.
"What's wrong with the Queen?" Zhu Yijun asked with a masterless face.
