The family of the Lin family had dinner amidst the excitement and warmth, but it was completely different inside the palace.

Because Concubine Xue De is about to give birth.

Under the starry sky, the red palace lanterns were hung high inside and outside the Fuqin Pavilion, guarding the outer door. Two maids stood on one side, and a eunuch in a dark blue fifth-rank palace held a robe in one hand and a lantern in the other, and ran for a while. , followed by two imperial physicians from the imperial hospital, and two drug boys carrying medicine boxes, the eunuch in the fifth-rank palace spoke first, "The doctor is here, why don't you hurry up and open the door, what are you waiting for?" , Wu Leng Leng, do you still want your head?"

Hearing these words, the two maids hurriedly opened the half-covered door, revealing the figures of several concubines inside, including the empress dowager who was sitting, the concubine Zhenxian, and the concubine Jia Xian who could only stand. People, with different expressions on their faces, the Empress Dowager was sitting upright, and Chen Nvshi behind her had already put on the colorful phoenix and white fox cloak for the Empress Dowager. In the overalls, only a few nobles stood aside coldly.

Seeing this, the two imperial physicians did not dare to go in rashly and confront the empress dowager and the others, so they turned their heads and told the medicine boy to stay on guard, and carried the medicine box to wipe the sweat on their foreheads, followed by the eunuchs in the fifth-rank palace. Stepping up to the empress dowager, he knelt down and saluted: "My minister, I greet the empress dowager, ladies and gentlemen, to the empress dowager, all the empress dowagers, please greet me."

"Get up, just wait."

The Empress Dowager didn't bother to pay attention, she waved her hand, and asked the imperial doctors to go in and wait in the first wing. Concubine Zhen Xian and the others looked at the two imperial doctors kneeling on the ground with their heads bowed, watching them kowtow, and stood up. He got up, took eight steps backwards, and then entered the side room with the medicine box in his hand. He exchanged glances with those present without any trace, and Nanny Li, who was standing behind the empress dowager, raised her eyelids and stood by the door. The eunuch in the palace of the fifth rank, this guy thought he picked up Mrs. Xue De's thread and the amniotic fluid broke, so he invited these two imperial physicians, but his hand was too long.

The empress, who was originally the lord of the harem, wanted to come here, but was stopped by the empress dowager at the Kunning Palace early: "You are already weak, and the blood on the parturient's side is a bit strong after all, don't be bumped, this time There is an Ai Family nearby." Naturally, the Empress was willing to follow the Empress Dowager's order, so she rested in the palace and only lit a lamp in the outer hall, so that people could keep watch to avoid any accidents.

In the room, the two midwives looked at Baochai's painful face lying on the bed, then looked at the mouth of the palace, and discussed in a low voice. After preparing everything early, Baochai was sweating profusely from the pain, clutching the quilt tightly with both hands, and while she was still able to speak, she asked in a trembling voice: "Mother, what's the matter, what's the matter, what's the matter, Does it hurt so much!?"

The younger nanny frowned. She had been a midwife for many years, and the birth of children in the palace was not frequent, and even more so in recent years, but it was the first time I saw Baochai at such a young age. It's not ripe yet, it's very risky, there are the empress dowager and others guarding outside, and these nobles will naturally ask for something, so she calmed down and instructed the maid next to her: "Go and order to make some ginseng soup and prepare it." Go!" Turning to look at Baochai again, she said: "Your Majesty hasn't seen the red yet, so I have to wait a little longer, and when you see the red and open the cervix, you will naturally give birth."

The older mother just saw that Baochai's palace was still open, and knew that it would take a while, maybe it might not be born at dawn, and she was afraid of delaying the rest of the masters, so she turned around and opened the curtain, and went outside. Report to go.

First a nanny came to inform Chen Nvshi, and Chen Nvshi next to her passed a message to the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager nodded, and then Chen Nvshi spoke to that nanny, and the midwife nurse came out of the door, The Empress Dowager saw the midwife coming out, but did not hear the baby crying, so she asked, "Why did you come out?"

The midwife made a blessing first, not daring to look up at the Empress Dowager, she lowered her head and lowered her hands: "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, this servant has seen Mrs. Xue De, but the amniotic fluid is broken.

It's a little bit, but it's not red, and it will take a while. According to the experience of slaves, I'm afraid they won't be born until dawn. "After speaking, he stood without saying a word.

The Empress Dowager heard this, thought for a while, and said: "Forget it, you just go back and watch over Concubine Xue De!"

The Empress Dowager turned her head to look at the concubines beside her, the concubines and the nobles standing beside them, those elderly concubines, the concubines couldn't help showing a trace of regret on their faces, the nobles are not young , and stood for a long time, she couldn't bear it anymore, and the tiredness on her face became more and more obvious. The empress dowager said: "Everyone has also heard what the midwife said. If this is the case, let's all go back. Wait here."

First of all, the eyes of the nobles were filled with joy, and the concubines were about to say something, when the concubine Jia Xian stepped forward, she stood up from her seat, wearing a colorful thread with two phoenixes and two tails chasing pearls woven by Baoqin. The cloak is bound, the more white the powder on the face is, the eyebrow line is drawn extremely high, and the phoenix eyes are even more sharp, just opening the mouth makes those too noble people angry: "The empress dowager is sympathetic, and the concubine and others are very grateful." It's just that Concubine De's younger sister gave birth for the first time, and at a young age, she must be very afraid of being alone, and the saint is not here, and concubines and others are Concubine De's reliance, and please be considerate of the Empress Dowager."

Concubine Jia Xian's upside-down words made the concubines stunned. The quick-witted Concubine Wu Gui looked at Concubine Jia Xian with unusual eyes, wondering if this could be a bewilderment?She couldn't help but glanced at the concubine Zhenxian, Concubine Xu Shu, and Concubine Zhang De who were next to her, and found that everyone was suspicious. They were in front of the empress dowager. Looking towards the empress dowager.

The Empress Dowager herself also felt very awkward when she heard it, so she snorted coldly, then got up, took a deep look at Concubine Jia Xian, and left a sentence: "Concubine Xue De is your relative after all, theoretically, you should take care of him more. Seeing that Concubine Xian is so attached to Concubine Xue De, then stay and watch over her." At the end, she told Madam Liu behind her: "You and your father-in-law stay here to take care of them, and if you have something to do, send someone to take care of you immediately. Ning Gong, this place is very close, don't delay because of trivial matters, this is the emperor's heir, so don't be careless."

Nanny Liu stood side by side with several eunuchs and maids behind her, and said yes loudly, and everyone also saluted to send off the empress dowager.

The Empress Dowager walked out holding the hands of Nanny Li and Nushi Chen. The eight maids were already waiting at the door holding palace lanterns. Seeing the Empress Dowager walking slowly, the six maids led the way. Slowly embraced the Empress Dowager and walked towards the Palace of Compassion.

Concubine Wu Gui spoke a few words with the other concubines, and then she took a concubine and two nobles who lived with her to the courtyard where she lived, and the rest of the people also bid farewell to each other. In the end, looking at Mrs. Jia Xian who was alone with only Baoqin and two maids in the palace, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Sister Mrs. Xian cares for Mrs. De with sisterly love." Sister concubine, I am old, weak and sickly, and I am very envious of this sincere sisterhood, Wanwang Xiantai concubine sister can be consistent." After finishing speaking, the corners of her mouth curled up with a smile, very careful Covering it with a handkerchief, she let out a soft breath, which could be heard very clearly even by Nanny Liu next to her.

Grandma Liu took a step forward, bent down and bowed, and said in a calm voice, "Madam Zhenxian, please go back to the palace to rest." Concubine Zhenxian is an old man who has lived in the palace for many years. After brushing her face, his body couldn't take it anymore, so he nodded and helped his maid back to his yard.

Seeing that Concubine Zhen Xian had left, Madam Liu asked Concubine Jia Xian to sit down in the small hall. Because her face was too much makeup, she couldn't see the color on her face, but she could see the fatigue in her eyes, but this concubine Jia Xian agreed to the Queen's appointment. For the queen mother, she had to wait until Concubine De was born, so she decided to ask someone to make strong tea first, and then prepare some pastries.

Concubine Jia Xian wanted to wait in the courtyard, but when the empress dowager left, she left behind a senior nanny like Liu Nanny, who she was quite afraid of, so she had to sit with Liu Nanny in the small hall, drinking strong Drinking strong tea, listening to Baochai's distressed cries, she felt a surge of joy in her heart. What she muttered was not asking for Baochai's safety, but wanting to kill two dead bodies. That said, there is still Princess Zhenxian who failed to raise a child, it is absolutely out of her turn, and it is simply not cheap for others, and it is also an excellent thing to die together.

Concubine Jia Xian thought so much so that she could survive bit by bit. Even if she wanted to sleep, she had to pinch herself hard when she saw Nanny Liu and the maids and eunuchs in the room, so as not to fall asleep and be caught. If Madam Liu or any of the maids and eunuchs in the house lodged a complaint, it would be a loss outweighing the gains if they were arrested for being unseemly and then grounded.

It's a pity that people's calculations are not as good as heaven's calculations. At dawn, Baochai finally gave birth to a baby girl. The emperor did not say anything, so the empress dowager named the baby girl: Minghe.

Concubine Jia Xian stayed up all night, but couldn't get the result she wanted, so angry and tired, she fell ill after returning to her yard.

The birth of Princess Minghe was a happy event, and because she was only a princess, the emperor, empress, and empress dowagers did not speak, so the three days of Xisan and the two days of the full moon were not very lively, and they were all organized as ordinary princesses.

When Daiyu heard that Baochai had given birth to a daughter, she recited Aniduofo in her mouth. After all, sister Bao also had support in the palace.
