However, she was in the middle of childbirth and didn't have the strength. Green Bamboo was standing next to her, and if she noticed anyone making any trouble, she could just have Green Bamboo throw them out.

The delivery room had been prepared long ago, so everyone was proceeding in an orderly manner. Mingxiu had a total of four midwives, all of whom were hired by Kangxi. Childbirth was like going through the gates of hell for a woman, and the worst thing she could do was scare herself.

If you're too tense, anything can happen.

So Mingxiu is currently trying her best to relax.

Emperor Kangxi stood outside, anxiously watching the delivery room. The people outside didn't hear any sounds coming from inside for a long time, and they paced back and forth anxiously, looking at the imperial physicians beside them with impatience.

The imperial physician beside him saw Kangxi looking at him and was speechless, but quickly explained, "Your Majesty, childbirth is a physically demanding task. I believe Consort Ming is well-intentioned and is conserving her strength now so that she can start dealing with the situation when it comes to childbirth. If she shouts and screams now, she might not have the strength to give birth."

Upon hearing this, Kangxi calmed down somewhat, but he was still very irritable and impatient, especially considering the situation.

The Imperial Noble Consort stood to the side, listening to the imperial physician's words with some surprise. She hadn't expected that there were so many intricacies involved in childbirth.

The concubines behind her had mostly arrived, and everyone was looking nervously into the delivery room. Kangxi was worried that Mingxiu might be in danger during childbirth, while the concubines behind her were worried that Mingxiu would give birth to a son.

Mingxiu is already the head of a palace, and she also has connections with the crown prince. If she were to give birth to another prince, I'm afraid no one in the palace would be able to challenge her.

Kangxi had no time to care what the women in his harem were thinking. Listening to the cries of pain coming from inside, Kangxi felt his heart clench. He had been nervous when other concubines gave birth before, but he had never felt this way, wishing he could give birth in their place.
