When Mingyu and Xueying's carriage returned to Hongli's residence, light snow suddenly began to fall from the sky.

The family dinner in the back garden had ended, and everyone had returned to their own rooms.

Mrs. Su had already gone to bed to rest. Halfway through her sleep, she suddenly felt wet beneath her.

"Xiao Mu, Xiao Mu!" Su woke up, reached down and touched herself, and found her hand covered in bodily fluids.

Ms. Su suddenly felt very scared; her due date was still more than half a month away.

Xiao Mu, who was on night watch outside, heard the noise and hurriedly put on his clothes and came in.

"Princess, what's wrong?" Xiao Mu rushed to Su's bedside.

"Quickly light the lamp, I feel like I'm leaking a lot of water down there," Su said fearfully.

Xiao Mu didn't dare to delay and hurriedly went to find the candlestick.

When she moved the candlestick over, she saw that the bedding under Su was indeed wet.

"Quick, go and call Liu Momo!" Madam Su cried out in fright.

After Qiushui Pavilion was fully lit up, Xiao Mu and another maid went to inform the principal wife, the secondary wife, and Madam Gao.

Ms. Su had already been carried into the delivery room; she had lost a lot of amniotic fluid.

The two midwives took their positions, and the maids also performed their duties, preparing for Su to give birth.

The early winter nights were especially cold. Zheng Fujin, wearing a cotton cloak, was being led by Zi Xun towards Qiu Shui Pavilion.

Upon hearing that the Su family had launched their operation, Xueying immediately got up, dressed, and headed to Qiushui Pavilion.

By the time they all arrived at Qiushui Pavilion, Madam Su had already begun giving birth.

"There were still half a month left, so why did it flare up this time?" the principal wife asked Xiao Mu, Su's personal maid.

"Gege suddenly lost a lot of amniotic fluid last night," Xiao Mu said, looking down.

She didn't know why Su's condition had started half a month early.

"How is Su Gege doing now?" Xueying asked.

“Gege’s baby is in the correct position, and Liu Momo said it’s fine. Liu Momo is inside with Gege,” Xiao Mu replied hurriedly.

"Sister Su used quite a lot at the banquet, how come she's already started having problems so quickly?" Madam Gao said from the side.

"It's impossible to predict when a woman will give birth; sometimes it can happen suddenly," Xueying said.

All that could be heard from the delivery room were the woman's shrill screams.

The people standing outside all looked serious, each harboring their own thoughts.

The principal wife naturally hoped that this pregnancy would not be miscarried, and if it was, she hoped it would be a girl.

The concubine hoped that the mother and child would be safe.

As Gao listened to Su's screams, she felt worried.

"Why don't we go inside and wait? It's too windy outside. Please, Madam, Consort, and Lady Gao, come inside," Xiao Mu said.

The three people went inside. It was indeed very cold outside.

After two hours of struggling, Su finally gave birth.

"She's given birth! She's given birth!" The maidservant ran in excitedly to announce the good news.

"What happened?" Fucha Mingyu blurted out instinctively.

"It's a prince," the maid said happily.

Hongli's first child was born, a prince!

Each of the three had their own feelings, and Xueying took the lead and went out to see what was going on.

The principal wife leaned against her back, her eyes flashing with hatred.

"Madam, shall we go and take a look?" Madam Gao reminded her. "Madam Su is only a concubine, Madam is the child's legitimate daughter. If you don't take care of it, I'll run there."

Meanwhile, Xueying had already walked out of the house and arrived in front of Madam Su. Madam Su was so exhausted that she collapsed.

"Let me see the child," Xueying said to the wet nurse who was holding the baby.
