The Job of an Imperial Concubine
Chapter 115
Everyone in the harem knew that the queen was ill, and many people waited for the queen to be abolished. Even the chapel began to be put into use. After a while, the harem was chaotic.
Feng Jin sat in a dragon chair, watching the following civil and military officials quarreling for the woman in her harem. They waited until they were almost quarreling before they said: "The adults are really intrigued. It is better to be so conscientious for my harem. Did you decide the affairs of the previous dynasty?"
Everyone heard that the emperor's words were not right, and they were so scared that they dared not speak again. The original thought of sending the family to the palace was also quite a bit light.
"The ministers did not dare, but there was no son in the middle of the palace, and the father and brother were tyrannical and evil, and it was really unbearable for the mother of the country." An imperial history said, "The mother of the country should be a model for the woman in the world. He thought that the queen should be abolished."
Feng Jin glanced at the imperial history of his speech, and it seemed to have something to do with the concubine's family. He sneered: "How is the queen's virtue? I know better than you. Since I have no children, I should be abolished. I remember your sister married for eighteen years. Son, the husband’s family should have abandoned her."
This Yushi didn't expect the emperor to know about his family's affairs, his expression changed and he dared not say anything.
"I don't know what it is!" Feng Jin got up and said with anger, "Everyone is a talent in the middle of the dynasty. Who knows that he only cares about the things of the harem, and I am really sad!" The next courtiers looked at each other with a big face.
The aftermath of the event was so quietly dissipated, and the concubines of the harem gradually realized that the queen would not be abolished. The virtuous concubine, who had frequently acted in recent days, was a little embarrassed.Sometimes walking outside, she faintly felt that someone was laughing at her, but when she looked back, she only saw the respectful appearance of these people, and gradually she did not like to go out.
Without the great prince and the emperor's favor, the princess Xian also understood in her heart that when the queen is better, her actions will be hated by the queen these days. Although the queen's temperament is gentle, she is definitely not a woman who complains by virtue.
Anxiously shaking the fan in his hand, the princess took a sip of the herbal tea next to her, and saw the maiden hurried in and hurriedly said, "Have you heard, how is the queen's body?"
The little lady looked down on her face in ugliness, daring not to say a word.
"Concubine Xian really cares about the body of the palace," the queen suddenly walked in with a group of court ladies and eunuchs, with an unspeakable smile on her face, "Looking at this palace is good, is Princess Xian very disappointed?" ?"
Concubine Xian said with a smile and saluted: "Concubine please greet the empress and empress."
"People in the palace are keeping their lives safe, and the palace will be safe," the queen sneered at her, sitting down at the top, slowly shaking the beauty fan in her hand, and her slightly sick face was not a bit desolate. "Concubine, are you saying this?"
The princess did not dare to sit down, standing honestly in front of the back of the emperor, barely smiled and said: "You are right.
"You can understand that this is the best way, and this palace did not go this way in vain," the queen continued to shake her fan slowly, glancing with dissatisfaction at the princess Yin, "well, this palace just happened to pass by, so hot Today, this palace went to Xihe Palace to see." After that, he got up and went out, and he saw a eunuch hurried in.
"The Queen Qiqiang, the concubine, and the concubine Zhao are afraid that they are about to give birth. At this time, they have already entered the delivery room that has been prepared."
"What?!" The emperor's back changed, and she couldn't help making trouble for the concubine, and anxiously said, "Go to Xihe Palace quickly. Are the doctor and grandma ready? , All suspicious people are in detention."
"Yes," the eunuch, who had passed the message, hurriedly retreated, and the queen hurried to Xihe Palace. She knew very well that the emperor was in a bad mood now. If there was a problem with Zhao Fei or Zhao Fei's children, this harem day It must be hard to bear, and it is her queen, whose status is in jeopardy, that bears the brunt.
No one felt hot at this moment. The queen was sitting on Fengyong, sweating her fan handles, but she still felt cold on her back. When Fengyong stopped at Xihe Temple, she could not look in front of her. The concubines, who salute themselves, supported Heyu's hand and walked in. The remaining concubines looked at each other and followed silently.
When the crowd arrived outside the delivery room, they didn't hear any screams, only heard the voice of a midwife in the room, and the court lady took the food.
Some eunuchs brought some chairs, but at this moment no one dared to sit, staring at the delivery room with serious expressions.
On the delivery bed, Zhuang Luoyan endured the pain caused by contractions while swallowing hard, apparently trying to save energy for the birth of a child.
"Ma'am, you must not scream loudly later, as this will consume your physical strength," after the midwife examined Zhuangluo Ro, "you are in good condition now, there will be no problems, wait for the old slave to say When you can, you will work hard with the contractions. If the contractions stop, you can also take a breath. You must remember not to scream loudly."
Zhuang Luoyan nodded, feeling that the feeling of contractions caused her five organs to shift. She barely ate up and took a breath. "You don’t have to take care of this palace. If this palace doesn’t do anything during production, just Let me remind you loudly, this palace will not blame you, after giving birth, this palace will have a great reward."
Several midwifes were relieved. This woman was very painful to give birth. Sometimes they had to sternly remind the mothers what to do to keep them awake.Since Zhao Fei said this, they can also take less care of it later.
Zhuang Luoyan was already sweating profusely. She had never suffered such pain in her life. She could even feel the fetus in her abdomen kicking her legs desperately, as if she was anxious to come out.
At this time, she still had the energy to think, no wonder most women love children more than men. This month of pregnancy, and suffered the greatest pain in the world to give birth to a small life, how can you not love your own life?
At this moment, the warm liquid came out from underneath, and the midwife's face slightly changed, "Ma'am, your amniotic fluid is broken, you listen to the old slave's command, and follow your strength."
Zhuang Luoru felt that her brain was confused, and every movement of the child in the abdomen of amniotic fluid was more painful than before. She felt the pain disappeared when she gritted her teeth with the grandma's password, just thinking How to give birth to the child as quickly as possible, because the amniotic fluid is broken, the child will be deprived of oxygen if held in the birth canal for too long, and in severe cases may even cause congenital mental retardation.
Outside the delivery room, the queen was sweating anxiously and heard the muffled hum of Zhao Fei from the house. She was a little irritated and he said, "You and the bamboo and the kitchen seep soup, if Zhao Fei does not After strength, let her drink." After that, he began to think of Buddha.
"The emperor is here!"
The queen heard the report, and she was relieved for a while. She turned around and saw that the emperor was striding forward. She was stopped before her ceremony was finished.
"How is Zhao Fei?" Feng Jin's face, which had always been quiet, was anxious. He looked at the queen seriously. "What can the maternal grandmother say, can Zhao Fei's fetal position be correct?"
"Going back to the emperor, the maternal grandmother said, Zhao Fei's fetal position is very good, and the fetus is also very good," the emperor looked startled, looking at Feng Jin, seemingly figured out something, and said with a smile, "Mother and son will be safe. "
Feng Jin nodded and stared at the delivery room silently. After less than a quarter of an hour, he frowned: "I can't hear Zhao Fei's voice, you sent someone to see the queen," After that, he said again, "Don't let them come and go, don't surprise them." After that, he stopped talking and pushed the eunuch who shook his fan forward.
Feng Jin felt a little bored, so he paced back and forth. He frowned when he heard bamboo carrying the ginseng soup into the delivery room, and then took a breath and said, "Queen, why is this woman giving birth so long?"
It's just over a quarter of an hour.The empress smiled reluctantly, "Emperor, the woman is born like this, and she is suffering."
Feng Jin's face sank a little bit, and it was at this time that the voice of the midwife was heard. His face was almost black like ink.
"Ma'am, don't give up your strength, hurry up and the child will come out soon."
"Quick, drink some ginseng soup!"
Feng Jin was already sweaty at this time, and an eunuch would come up and report to an adult to be seen. He was kicked by him, "No, go!"
The little eunuch rolled over and rolled out of Xihe Palace. He only hated the officials who wanted to see, not having long eyes. At this time, Zhao Fei was giving birth.
Seeing the eunuch running, the educated official felt stunned, thinking that he had angered the emperor, and stuffed a wallet with the eunuch. He was careful: "The father-in-law, but the emperor does not want to see the ministry?"
"Let's go back earlier, the empress and the elders are all at Xihe Palace at this time. The emperor will not see anyone today." After that, the eunuch retreated.
The official froze for a moment, and then his face changed. What does this mean is that the concubine Zhao is about to give birth?Thinking of this, he hurried out of the palace. In any case, it was a good deal to tell the dealer about this.
Zhuang Luoru felt that her eyes had turned black, and her body seemed to have no effort. She felt that she could sleep with her eyes closed, and she seemed to hear what the midwife said, coming soon.
She opened her eyes violently, almost used all her strength in her life, gritted her teeth with the last force, and then felt that something had separated from her body.
"Congratulations, Niang Hexi, a healthy and wealthy prince!" The midwife's happy voice passed into her ears. She seemed to have strength again, and she looked at the child who was raised by the midwife. Not sticky, very clean, looking at the little one, but the cry is very loud.
She thought, confused, that the voice was really bright, I'm afraid I could hear it in half of the harem?Close your eyes sleepily and fall asleep in the cry of the child.
"Born, born!" The queen's eyes were red, and she rushed to the door of the delivery room with some excitement. She saw the midwife carefully holding a package out, and knelt down with joy: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the empress, The concubine Zhao gave birth to the prince."
Feng Jin seemed to be reacting. He strode to the midwife grandma, "How is Zhao Fei?" After he finished, he looked down at the child who was wrapped in it. His fetal hair had grown beyond his ears and his face was red. All, it looks small and soft.
"The concubine Zhao has fallen asleep," said the maternal grandmother. "I think it's too sleepy."
Feng Jin nodded, before reaching out to hug the child carefully, watching the child half-opened with black eyes, and laughing, "Reward, all rewards!"
