"Why only a one-month lifespan?" Ituma Shush felt shocked.
This is an alternate history Qing Dynasty novel with a cheat, multiple children, no romantic pairing (CP), and a slower pace...
At this moment, Consort Yun, her face full of worry, said to Luo Ye and Zhi Qiu, who had been waiting in the main hall to serve everyone, "Please pass on a message to Consort Shu: the Seventh Prince, the Eighth Prince, and the Ninth Prince are all still waiting for their mother!"
Luoye and Zhiqiu exchanged a glance, then bowed their heads and replied, "Yes, Consort Yun."
Consort Ning hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and said, "You should also convey a message to Consort Shu on my behalf: do not lose heart, you must persevere."
Consort Yu also stepped forward, her brows furrowed, and said softly, "Please also convey a message to Consort Shu on my behalf: it has not been easy to enter the palace for so many years, so don't give up easily."
Consort Qi and Consort Jing exchanged a glance. Consort Qi's eyes darted around, and she spoke first: "You two should also convey a message to Consort Shu on my behalf: she must hold on and not give up so easily."
Upon hearing this, Consort Jing's eyes flashed with slight surprise, but she reacted quickly and said softly, "Please convey a message to Consort Shu on my behalf: no matter how difficult it is, do not give up easily."
Luo Ye and Zhi Qiu looked at Consort Ning, Consort Yu, Consort Qi, and Consort Jing with surprise, but they quickly recovered and bowed together, saying, "We will convey your words to Consort Shu later."
The remaining noble ladies, attendants, concubines, and princesses were all completely bewildered. This world was too surreal! When did these ladies become so close to Consort Shu?
...
Not long after, all the concubines left Qingyun Yaxuan one after another.
Subsequently, Luoye and Zhiqiu also relayed the words of the five consorts, Yunpin, Ningpin, Yupin, Qipin, and Jingpin, to Ituma Shushu.
After hearing this, Ituma Shushu looked astonished. She thought to herself, "What trick is Consort Yun playing now? Is she really that eager to perform?"
Consort Ning and Consort Yu must be a little worried about themselves. As for Consort Qi and Consort Jing, they were probably just repeating what the four consorts said. After all, the others had said nice things, and they didn't want to be left behind.
Xia Ju also felt something was off. She whispered, "Your Majesty, what do they mean by this?"
Ituma Shushu thought to herself: I know your Empress Yunpin definitely has ill intentions!
However, she wore a puzzled expression and said softly, "I don't know what they mean either. Just take it literally and ignore them."
After hearing Ituma Shushu's words, everyone nodded, thinking to themselves: Consort Shushu has indeed never paid attention to the hidden meanings in the other concubines' words; she has always only listened to the surface meaning. In Consort Shushu's words, she simply couldn't understand anything too complicated.
Just then, Ituma Shushu felt a pain in her stomach and stopped talking.
The next day, just as Emperor Yongzheng went to the morning court with a heavy heart, while the Empress and the other concubines had not yet arrived at Qingyun Yaxuan.
Inside the delivery room of Qingyun Yaxuan, Ituma Shushu kept muttering to herself: Little Ten, Little Eleven, you two little lazybones, Mommy wants to see you two...
Soon after, a loud cry shattered the tranquility of Qingyun Yaxuan, followed by another loud cry!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's the two princes."
Xia Ju shouted excitedly.
At this moment, Dongmei was wiping the sweat off Ituma Shushu. Upon hearing Xiaju's words, she excitedly continued wiping Ituma Shushu's sweat with trembling hands, while loudly saying, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
In an instant, it seemed as if the entire Qingyun Yaxuan was filled with the sounds of "Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
Ituma Shushu stared intently at the tenth prince in the light blue swaddling clothes and the eleventh prince in the light pink swaddling clothes. Yes, that's right, it was the color of two buttons on the virtual transparent panel of "Dawn Mall". When she made the swaddling clothes, she had also suddenly decided to choose these two colors.
At this moment, Ituma Shushu felt a warmth in her heart. Her two little pigs were curled up in their swaddling clothes, their skin soft and delicate, like freshly baked bread, making her want to touch them gently.
Their limbs were soft yet strong, and every unconscious movement seemed to announce their arrival to the world. Ituma Shushu seemed to hear their voices: Mother, Mother, Mother, Mother, we'll be good, we've come out to see you!
Ituma Shushu couldn't help but chuckle softly, saying, "My two little lazy pigs, little lazy pigs, little lazy pigs."
Then she thought to herself: Although Chu Yin had just finished taking the pulses of the two princes, the imperial physician's procedures still had to be followed.
So, Ituma Shushu whispered, "Xiaju, Chuyin, take the Tenth Prince and the Eleventh Prince out for the two imperial physicians to take their pulses."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Then, Xia Ju, Chu Yin, Granny Dong and the others carefully carried the two princes out of the delivery room.
Not long after, the two princes were carefully carried back by the crowd.
Xia Ju whispered, "Your Majesty, the two imperial physicians' pulse diagnosis indicates that the Tenth Prince and the Eleventh Prince are both in good health."
Ituma Shushu nodded and whispered, "Luoye, go to the Empress's Feng Qingmingyue to report that my mother and son are all safe and sound. Zhiqiu, go and tell Xiaolinzi to go to the front court to report to the Emperor."
Fallen Leaves and Autumn's Autumn responded, "Yes, Your Majesty."
The wind is gentle and the moon is bright.
Granny Chun hurriedly entered the main hall.
At this moment, Her Majesty the Empress had just finished her breakfast. She noticed that Chun Mama's expression was off, frowned, and asked softly, "Chun Mama, is there any news from Consort Shu's side?"
Granny Chun's face still showed surprise as she whispered, "Your Majesty, the maidservant from Consort Shu's side just came to report that Consort Shu has given birth to two princes, and all three are safe and sound."
The Empress raised her eyes slightly and said softly, "It's really quite unexpected. Last night, everyone thought that Consort Shu was in trouble, but before we even set off for Qingyun Yaxuan today, we received the good news that Consort Shu and her two children are all safe and sound."
Granny Chun was truly astonished. She continued in a low voice, "Your Majesty, with the newly born Tenth Prince and Eleventh Prince, Consort Shu has given birth to five princes for the Emperor! How many princes does the Emperor actually have?"
Moreover, it seems that Consort Shu's delivery was very difficult this time. After all, her delivery was not smooth from the beginning, so even if she eventually gave birth to two princesses safely.
This servant isn't that surprised, but Consort Shu safely gave birth to two princes, and all three are safe and sound. What a blessing this is!
