Chapter 313: Death
The news that Chen's dystocia and desperately gave birth to a baby girl spread to the Beihai Palace.
Zhao Xiyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, if there is one more "prince" in the palace, the situation will become more and more complicated, which will be very unfavorable to Xu Jing. Chan gave birth to a "princess", which couldn't be better.
Chen, who was disemboweled, didn't know if he could survive the catastrophe.
Zhao Xiyan thought about it and called Xu Ying over to discuss.
Xu Ying said in a low voice, "The Chen family is the princess of the Yingchuan Wang, and this baby girl was born to be the county lord of the Yingchuan Palace. You, who are aunts, have to go to the palace in person to congratulate you on the day of washing. When the time comes, we'll see for myself the Chan family."
That's all it had to be.
Zhao Xiyan nodded.
Unexpectedly, on the second day, there was bad news in the palace that Chen had swallowed his breath.
Women's childbirth is inherently a ghost gate. Once you have a difficult birth, nine times out of ten you can't get through it. Chen's death like this is embarrassing, but it is also expected by everyone.
Chen was not a concubine in the palace, and the funeral could not be handled in the palace, and the body was sent back to the Yingchuan palace on the same day. was sent back to the palace together, as well as the prince of Yingchuan who did not move like a wood carving.
Xu Jing and others were shocked to hear the bad news and hurriedly rushed back to the capital from the barracks. By the time the horse arrived at the Yingchuan Palace, another day had passed.
Yingchuan Wangfu is a vegetarian.
There was a coffin in the mourning hall, and Chen changed into a clean and tidy dress and lay quietly in the coffin. When I looked closer, I could see that the stiff and dead face was distorted and hideous. It can be seen how painful it is before death.
Chen's son and daughter all stayed in Yingchuan County, and the little county lord was only three days old, unable to see the light or get cold, and was carried into the Jiaofang Hall by Queen Su.
Because of this, Chen's mourning hall was deserted. obviously gave birth to three children, but there was not even a single crying spirit.
There were quite a few female relatives who came to mourn for the Chen family, and they came in a hurry and left in a hurry. It seems that there is a vicious dog behind him, and he does not dare or want to stay in the Yingchuan Royal Mansion for a while.
Xu Jing bowed in front of Chen's coffin, and after bowing three times, he walked up to the prince of Yingchuan who looked sluggish and wooden, and sighed and said, "My sister-in-law died in childbirth, and her fate was not good. It is inevitable that my cousin will lose his loved one and mourn in his heart. However, my cousin also had to take care of himself. The little lord in the palace also needs his cousin to take care of him."
The little princess?
The face of the prince of Yingchuan suddenly twitched twice, and a strange and strange sound came out of his mouth. It's like laughing, it's like crying.
Xu Jing saw it in his eyes, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
The prince of Yingchuan is stealing chickens and rice. wants to use the merits of dedicating his wife and children to win a place in front of Emperor Yongming.
It's a pity that in the end, the bamboo basket is empty. Even Chen's life was lost.
Xu Jing stayed in the mourning hall for a while, and was about to leave, when Zhao Xiyan and the princess of Xihe, the princess of the Xihe family, came to mourn.
Zhao Xiyan was pregnant, and according to the customs of the Great Jin Dynasty, pregnant women could not enter the mourning hall. Zhao Xiyan bowed goodbye outside the mourning hall.
Xu Jing quickly stepped forward and held Zhao Xiyan's hand tightly.
Xu Jing's hands trembled slightly.
There is no need for Xu Jing to open his mouth, Zhao Xiyan also knows what Xu Jing is nervous about. She glanced at Xu Jing soothingly, and said softly, "My cousin-in-law had a difficult birth, because the child in her belly was too big to give birth. Not all women are like that, don't be afraid."
How could he not be afraid?
Seeing Chen's cold body lying in the coffin, he was terrified. It was a 1 in 10000 possibility, and it also made him feel terrified.
"Crescent Moon," Xu Jing couldn't say much in front of everyone, so she only reached out and held her hand firmly in her palm, and whispered, "My cousin is full of grief, and he can't listen to anything he says now. Let's go back first!"
Zhao Xiyan snorted, and went with Xu Jing to say goodbye to the prince of Yingchuan.
As if he had lost his mind, the prince of Yingchuan let out a strange cry from his mouth, deaf to everyone's voices.
It was he who personally sent the Chen family to the dragon couch, and now the Chen family has ended up so miserably, all because of his ambition and greed. Now cry into it
What's the use?
Can Chen survive or not?
Zhao Xiyan was disdainful and disdainful in his heart, and he didn't want to look at the prince of Yingchuan at all, so he quickly left with Xu Jing.
The young couple returned to Beihai Mansion in silence all the way.
After entering the bedroom and closing the door, Xu Jing immediately reached out and took Zhao Xiyan into his arms. Hold it tightly and don't want to let go for a moment.
Zhao Xiyan knew the fear and anxiety in his heart, reached out and stroked his handsome face, and comforted him softly: "Brother Chunsheng, don't be afraid, I'm very good. The baby in the womb is also very well."
In the past, when it came to children, Xu Jing's heart was full of tenderness. Today, when I was in a complicated and obscure mood, I opened my mouth and said, "Whether it is a son or a daughter, only this one is born."
Zhao Xiyan first felt funny, and then looked at Xu Jing, her expression was serious and almost solemn: "Sister Yue'er, I'm not joking, I'm serious."
"A woman's childbirth is a ghost gate. Even if there is only a 1 in 10,000 chance, I am very afraid. Nothing is more important to me than you."
Zhao Xiyan's heart was hot, and she snuggled into Xu Jing's arms: "Okay, I'll listen to you." When I finish giving birth to the child in my womb, I will take the soup of the child."
Xu Jing's slightly trembling body slowly returned to normal.
The two hugged and snuggled quietly. After a long time, Xu Jing whispered in a low voice: "My sister-in-law has been raising the fetus in the palace, and she is carefully taken care of by the imperial doctor every day.
The husband and wife talk in private, and there is nothing they can't say.
Zhao Xiyan snorted and said softly, "The emperor only cares about the child in Chen's womb, and he doesn't care about Chen's life or death at all. The queen's plan, although a little more vicious, has pinched the emperor's mind."
Empress Su and Emperor Yongming have been married for many years, and they have been favored for a long time, so they naturally have their abilities and means.
Xu Jing was silent for a moment, and suddenly said in a low voice, "Sister Yue'er, don't trust the imperial doctor I brought back from the palace."
"In the future, every half a month, you will go back to Zhao Mansion. Please ask my aunt to secretly invite a doctor to come and check your pulse."
You can't have the heart to hurt others, and you can't have the heart to defend people.
The prince treats him like a brother and sister, and it is unknown what Queen Su has in mind.
Zhao Xiyan glanced at Xu Jing: "The fifth cousin and the seventh cousin often come to see me, and each time they bring a female doctor. This female doctor is in her thirties and dresses up as a housekeeper. When you come, you'll check my pulse."
Xu Jing: "......"
Xu Jing scratched his head and laughed: "Yes, yes, it's too eye-catching to go back to Zhao Mansion from time to time. It's safer to do it. You're really, why have you never told me anything so important."
Zhao Xiyan smiled slightly: "You are busy with your errands, I will take care of myself and the children."
