However, this person was prepared, but it was impossible for Concubine Tong to give birth safely, and she was bound to suffer this pain.

In the Palace of Heavenly Purity, when Shunzhi learned that she was about to give birth, his first reaction was whether the midwife would make her suffer.

If not, then it's still not too late for him to change someone. After all, he wants to give her a childbirth gift that she will never forget.

"Wu Liangfu, tell the Queen that I went to Jingyang Palace to watch Concubine Tong give birth. She is getting older now, so don't go and join in the fun.

When I come back, I will tell her what's going on over there. If she really can't stay idle, she can go to the Cining Palace, but she can't go to the Jingyang Palace."

"Yes, I will send someone to tell the Queen right away."

Shunzhi thought that Mu Sili would listen to him obediently, so he went straight to Jingyang Palace.

However, just when he was halfway there, he met Wu Liangfu who was rushing over. There was a trace of grievance on his face, just like a child who didn't get the candy.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please wait for me. I can hardly catch up with you!"

"Wu Liangfu? Didn't you go to Kunning Palace to deliver the imperial edict? Why do you look so wronged?"

"Your Majesty, please watch for yourself. I can't persuade you. The Empress has followed. If nothing unexpected happens, they will go through the corner gate and are probably almost at Jingyang Palace."

As soon as Wu Liangfu said this, Shunzhi was so angry that he kicked him.

The reason why he didn't let Mu Sili go was because he was worried that she would be scared when she saw the bloody scene. But Wu Liangfu, this dog slave, couldn't even convey an imperial edict. Doesn't he want to do this anymore?

"Hurry up! If anything happens to the Queen in Jingyang Palace, I'll take it out on you!"

It's too late to say anything now. If Mu Sili really goes to Jingyang Palace, it will be impossible to let her come back.

She had no choice but to hurry over, lest Concubine Tong see her and develop malice in her heart and then attack her.

"Yes, yes, I will take you to Jingyang Palace right away. Come on, hurry up, we must arrive before the Empress."

"yes."

Outside the gate of Jingyang Palace, Mu Sili looked around curiously. Although the palace was a little off-center, it was large enough and would be worth seeing if it was renovated.

It’s a pity that Concubine Tong didn’t have the chance to see the renovated Jingyang Palace. Even if she could see it, she wouldn’t have the chance to live in it.

"Where is the Emperor?"

"I just sent someone to check, and they've arrived."

"Then wait a while, lest the Emperor think that I don't value him."

Tana was helpless. The Empress really loved to join in the fun. Ever since Shunzhi issued an order to cancel the visits to the emperor after she became pregnant, the Empress had been complaining about being bored every day.

She was asked to go to the Cining Palace to sit for a while, but she felt that it was not good to disturb the Empress Dowager all the time, so she made a fuss every few days.

For her safety, the entire Kunning Palace was put into action. Even Shunzhi secretly added a lot of manpower to protect the Kunning Palace, for fear that something might happen to her.

The Empress had originally planned to pay her respects at the Cining Palace, but after hearing Wu Liangfu say that Concubine Tong was about to give birth, she immediately rushed out with her men, almost frightening Wu Liangfu to death.

They wanted to persuade her, after all, the emperor's decree was for her to stay in Kunning Palace, but she refused to listen.

If they could have been persuaded, they wouldn't have been in such a difficult situation. After all, they were terrified all the way to Jingyang Palace.

"I knew you wouldn't stay in Kunning Palace obediently. I sent someone to inform you, but you still followed me."

Shunzhi looked very helpless. After all, asking Wu Liangfu to go to Kunning Palace was just to reassure himself.

If she thought the hustle and bustle of Jingyang Palace was unpleasant, she would not have followed.

Forget it, now that she’s here, I can’t let her leave. That would make me seem a bit stingy.

"Your Majesty, what you said is not true. I came to the Jingyang Palace not just to watch the fun, but also because this is my first time giving birth, so I naturally want to observe.

Although I am only four months pregnant, it is a good thing to prepare early. Observing it will also help me suffer less pain during childbirth.

You know I'm timid. Currently, I and Concubine Tong are the only ones pregnant in the palace. If I don't take this opportunity to observe, what will I do when it's my turn to give birth and I get nervous?

Shunzhi suddenly felt that he shouldn't talk too much. If she wanted to come, then let her come. He could guarantee that she was not here to observe.

When I said I would give Concubine Tong some hardship, her eyes lit up. If nothing unexpected happened, she came to see Concubine Tong's dying struggle.

"It's cold outside, let's go in first."

"yes."

Inside Jingyang Palace, Concubine Tong looked at the midwife who was rubbing her belly with horror. How come she didn't know that she had to rub her belly hard before giving birth?

"It hurts, it hurts so much, you old hag, why are you rubbing my belly so hard? If anything happens to the little prince, your whole family will die!"

The midwife, who had originally planned to just give her a little hardship as a token of her gratitude, suddenly felt a surge of anger after hearing this.

She was going to die after giving birth anyway, so why was he so soft-hearted? He couldn't let her threaten him.

Since she didn't cherish the chance to live, it was no wonder she was being blamed. Thinking of this, she applied a little more strength to her hands.

"Ah! It hurts so much, you slut, let me go!"

"My lady, it's better for you to be honest. I am doing things according to the rules. Thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from the emperor. You just have to accept it.

You should think carefully about the cause of your sin today. Everything has a cause and an effect. In the afterlife, you must not accuse me of my sins."

Perhaps the midwife's words worked, and Concubine Tong finally remembered and guessed why she had suffered this crime.

It must be that woman Mu Sili who discovered that she knew her secret, so she deliberately let the midwife torture her, intending to kill both herself and him.

Why is she so cruel? The throne of Queen is hers, what else could she be dissatisfied with? Couldn't she just pretend she didn't know and let her give birth to the child first?

Since she doesn't want to give me a chance to live, why should I give her a chance to live?

"Your Majesty, where are you? Please save me. This old woman is following the Queen's instructions and wants to kill me. Please come and save me.

I know that the child in the Queen's belly is not yours, but you are devoted to her and don't come to Jingyang Palace to see me, otherwise I would have told you long ago.

Your Majesty, please come and save me! If you don’t come, I and my child will really die at the hands of the Queen.”

Mu Sili looked innocently at Shunzhi, whose face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, then looked at the tightly closed door of the delivery room, and suddenly spoke with malicious intent.

"Concubine Tong, I didn't hear you clearly. The Emperor is not here. Please speak louder, otherwise I won't be able to hear you clearly."
