Chapter 169: Xie Yuzhou (Your cute Zhouzhou is online)
Xie Chen's eyes were bloodshot.
He thought of many situations for this request, either pestering him, or letting him push his limits and throw a tantrum.
But she never expected that she would ask him to give up her life!
Xie Chen's eyes were scarlet, his aura was terrifying, but his voice was panicked, "Pei Tingyue, I..."
As soon as he said these words, the woman in his arms grasped his hand, her voice breathless and light, "After I die, please find a good place for this child. Don't let anyone bully it, and don't let it hate me because of my death."
Tears hung on her trembling eyelashes, and the woman's eyes were filled with tears, and she was extremely heartbroken. She said, "When it grows up, I will tell it that I really love it."
Xie Chen felt as if a piece of his heart had been gouged out alive. The pain was so intense that his vision went black, and only the most basic consciousness remained to maintain his sanity.
He knew he couldn't agree to it.
He panted and lowered his head: "This child made me lose my beloved. Do you think I will really love it?"
Pei Tingyue was speechless for a moment.
Xie Chen's brows were covered with a layer of gloom, and his eyes were filled with a madness he had never seen before. "I don't want to see it in my lifetime, and I won't care about it. Not only that, I am also very happy that the women in the harem will take action against it. That way, with it, the culprit, accompanying me on the road to the underworld, my Tingyue will not be alone."
"Pei Tingyue, don't think I'm lying to you. I mean what I say!"
Pei Tingyue's eyes were filled with tears as she tugged at his sleeve tightly: "But it is the flesh and blood of Tingyue and the Emperor. How could the Emperor treat it like this?"
Xie Chen's dark eyes were filled with icy coldness: "So what? If Tingyue is here, it will be my favorite child. If Tingyue is not here, I just want it to accompany Tingyue as soon as possible."
Perhaps it was due to the effect of the medicine, the pain in my body became more and more obvious.
Pei Tingyue frowned.
She couldn't tell whether what the emperor said was true or false.
You can guess his subtle expressions.
Pei Tingyue was more inclined to believe that this was true.
She broke down and cried.
"But…"
Xie Chen turned up his sleeves, found a clean spot, and wiped her tears. "No buts, save your strength and let's try again."
Yun Shu happened to enter the hall at this moment. Before she could open her mouth, Xie Chen stopped her, saying, "Shut up if you want to live. I will never choose to sacrifice my mother to save my son."
Yun Zheng stood up with red eyes, pulled Yun Shu aside, and instructed the midwife, "Cheer up, correct the fetus's position, and deliver the baby again."
When several midwives saw this situation, they knew that if the baby couldn't be born, they would be implicated, so they became extremely alert.
Yun Zheng went outside and got two slices of ginseng and put them in Pei Tingyue's mouth to cheer her up.
The people in the hall waited tremblingly for her to recover her strength.
When Pei Tingyue cried out in pain again, there was movement in the hall.
Pei Tingyue used her remaining rationality to push Xie Chen: "This place is bloody and filthy, Your Majesty, please get out."
Xie Chen let her go, letting her lie flat for a better delivery. He stood in front of the bed without leaving, saying in a deep voice, "Just give birth with peace of mind. Don't worry about these things."
Pei Tingyue really had no time to take care of these things.
Waves of pain came one after another.
Her vision went blurry again.
After the midwife corrected her fetal position, she kept asking her to push, "My Lady, push a little harder."
"My lady, gather your strength and try again."
“…”
Pei Tingyue was sweating all over and kept gritting his teeth to exert strength.
She was tortured to the point of crying and screaming in pain.
Xie Chen was numb from the pain.
These groans of pain were like cold blades tempered by snow, cutting through bones and blood. Cut after cut, his flesh and blood were blurred, and he was almost tortured to death.
He sat silently beside the couch.
Use a clean handkerchief to wipe her face and tears.
*
Outside the palace.
The lights are on.
Queen Mother Qin, Empress Cui, and the imperial concubines were waiting anxiously in the courtyard.
After the palace maid reported that the emperor had taken a risk and used the method of Imperial Physician Ning, the concubines exclaimed in surprise and began to sob.
"Why is the birth so difficult for no reason?"
"Sister Pei is so pitiful."
“…”
But this is not crying, it is clearly laughing.
Empress Cui put down her teacup abruptly and said, "Whoever is making noise, return to the palace!"
Of course I can't leave.
The best part of the show hasn't started yet.
The concubines didn't dare to say anything more, they just kept their eyes red and tried to stop crying.
In the hall, the screams of pain became louder and louder, and then suddenly subsided. The corners of the concubines' lips curled up uncontrollably.
It seems that Pei Zhaoyi and her son will die tonight.
“Huahua—”
After being violently smashed several times from the inside, the window of the main hall finally couldn't hold up and was completely smashed open.
Concubine Song jumped out from the diamond-shaped window.
With red eyes, he went straight into the side hall.
"My Lady!"
Queen Cui suddenly stood up and called her.
"The situation in the palace is critical now. It would be useless for you to go in. Instead, it would distract Pei Zhaoyi."
Concubine Song looked straight into Empress Cui's eyes.
"If this is her fate, I will definitely give her a ride."
Queen Cui's words of persuasion stopped in her throat and turned into a long sigh.
Concubine Song just took a step.
"ah-"
"Wow-"
“…”
Following a shrill cry of pain, the loud cry of a baby was heard in the hall.
The tears in Concubine Song's eyes reflected a strange light in the dim light, and she laughed loudly.
"Tingyue, you're great!"
Queen Mother Qin and Empress Cui also smiled. Queen Mother Qin was shocked and said, "This is..."
Born.
All the concubines changed their expressions.
Born?
How could it be born?
Didn’t Doctor Ning say that there was only a 10% chance?
How could Pei Zhaoyi and her son have such great blessings?
The concubines in the six palaces gritted their teeth and stared at the palace door, waiting for the palace servants to come and report the news.
Under the gaze of everyone, the palace door creaked open with a sound of the palace servants.
"The Empress Dowager is overjoyed, the Empress is overjoyed, and the Concubine Zhaoyi has given birth to the fourth prince. Both mother and child are safe."
The tension in Concubine Song's mind relaxed, and a smile slowly crept up between her heroic brows: "Do your best!"
Queen Mother Qin smiled, a rare smile: "Okay, okay."
Empress Cui also smiled and ordered: "If another prince is born, rewards will be distributed throughout the palace. The Changle Palace will be rewarded with three months' worth of monthly silver, and the rest of the palace will be rewarded with one month's worth of monthly silver."
The concubines' faces did not look very good.
Some of them could barely keep up their fake smiles.
This blessing really falls on Pei Zhaoyi and her son!
Not only was the baby born safely, but he was also a prince!
How can this not make people angry?!
But I was jealous and angry in my heart, but I couldn't show it on my face, and I even had to flatter and curry favor with him.
"I am truly happy for the Empress Zhaoyi."
"It seems that the heavens have shown their support and protected Pei Zhaoyi and the Fourth Prince."
“…”
After feeling happy, Concubine Song hurried into the palace to check.
After a while, she was carefully escorted by palace maids, who opened the tent and moved into the main hall little by little.
Queen Cui asked, "What is this?"
The accompanying palace maid bowed and explained, "Because Concubine Zhaoyi is giving birth, he can't stay in the East Wing Hall for long. Originally, the Fourth Prince should have been taken back to the rear hall, but the Emperor said that Concubine Zhaoyi was exhausted and needed to rest overnight, so he asked Concubine Guifei to take him to the main hall to look after him."
Queen Mother Qin nodded and said, "Pei Zhaoyi has suffered a lot. She should rest well."
Empress Cui smiled and helped her up: "Then I will go with my mother to the main hall to see Xiao Si."
Queen Mother Qin's eyes were filled with tenderness and kindness. "Let's go and see this troublesome little evildoer."
Although he called him "little evildoer", the love and affection in his tone could not be concealed.
The concubines gritted their teeth in hatred, but could do nothing.
It’s my fault that I can’t give birth to a prince.
