Once they had all entered the hall, the kneeling palace servants finally stood up and began to discuss it eagerly.
"Did you hear that just now? Besides the little boy calling the Queen Mother, the girl also called the Queen Mother."
"The Empress even hugged the girl and was very affectionate towards the little boy!"
"Could these two really be the Empress's illegitimate daughters and children born out of wedlock?"
"Look at their appearance, they are obviously born to the Empress. They look exactly like her. There's no need for a blood test; they are clearly the Empress's biological children!"
"I think she looks like the Queen's own daughter. The Queen is very affectionate towards them. If she weren't her own daughter, why would she hug that girl!"
"When do you think the Empress gave birth to these two outside of marriage? The girl looks like she's already had a child, so she must be almost twenty years old. And the boy is almost ten years old too. Does that mean the Empress gave birth to the girl twenty years ago?"
"Looking at the age difference between the girl and the boy, the Empress is quite devoted to her lover outside, having two children at such a long interval."
"If that girl is twenty years old, then wouldn't she be the eldest daughter of our Western Liang Emperor?"
"Yes, the eldest princess is only seventeen years old. If she were older than the eldest princess, she would be the eldest princess of Xiliang!"
"If the eldest princess knew that the empress had two illegitimate children outside the palace, she would probably be furious!"
"Now that the Empress has brought them into the palace, the eldest princess will find out sooner or later. But knowing her temper, she'll definitely make a scene. Just wait and see!"
Everyone was talking about it, and the news that the Empress had brought her two illegitimate daughters and sons into the palace spread like wildfire and quickly reached the entire Western Liang Imperial Palace.
Meanwhile, this is Mu Junyu's main hall.
Mu Junyu carefully placed Su Xuening on her phoenix bed, then glanced at the sleeping child beside her: "Did you just give birth? On Huo'er's back."
Su Xuening nodded: "Yes, thanks to Mother for sending Fire Phoenix to pick us up, otherwise we would have been in danger."
Mu Junyu was somewhat surprised and guessed, "Has something happened in Dongchu?"
"Yes." Su Xuening sighed softly, "It's a long story."
Mu Junyu raised an eyebrow: "Since it's a long story, let's talk about it slowly later. I'll have the imperial physician and midwife come and take a look at you first."
She just gave birth on Huo'er's back, which must have been much more convenient than giving birth at home. It would be best to have the imperial physician and midwife come and take a look.
Before Su Xuening could speak, Mu Junyu instructed Jinzhu, "Go and invite the imperial physician and midwife over."
"yes."
Jinzhu agreed and immediately went to fetch someone.
Since Jinzhu returned to the Western Liang Imperial Palace with Mu Junyu, Mu Junyu has only had Jinzhu as her personal attendant. The other palace servants can only serve outside and are not allowed to enter the inner palace except for cleaning.
Bai Shi and Pei Luo had no objection to Mu Junyu sending someone to invite the imperial physician and midwife.
After all, they were indeed lacking this and that, and neither Bai Shi nor Jin Zhu were professionals. Childbirth is no child's play, and they were afraid that they hadn't handled Su Xuening well. So it would be best to have the imperial physician and midwife come and take a look now.
Although Bai didn't know Mu Junyu, she had heard from Su Xuening that Mu Junyu had amnesia and didn't remember her and Su Yun'an.
However, it seems that even if Mu Junyu really has amnesia, she still cares about her two children.
What mother in this world doesn't worry about her child?
Soon, Jinzhu arrived with the imperial physician and midwife.
"Your Majesty." The group bowed to Mu Junyu as soon as they entered the inner hall.
Mu Junyu glanced at them and said, "Let the midwife come and examine the princess first."
When Mu Junyu mentioned the princess, everyone was taken aback.
Princess?
Is this the eldest princess the Empress was referring to?
Is there something wrong with the eldest princess's health?
But the eldest princess isn't even married yet, so why is a midwife needed?
Despite the many questions, no one dared to ask anything. The midwives bowed and entered the inner hall, while the imperial physicians, who were not summoned, did not even dare to enter the inner hall.
When the midwife entered the inner hall and saw Su Xuening lying on the phoenix bed, she was immediately stunned and looked at Mu Junyu.
Seeing Mu Junyu in her bright yellow phoenix robe and phoenix crown, they finally realized that Mu Junyu was their empress, while the one on the bed was not.
However, the woman on the bed looks so much like the Empress, they are practically identical. If the Empress hadn't been there, they would definitely have mistaken her for someone else.
Who is this person, that he can lie on the Empress's phoenix bed?
Wait a moment……
The Empress just said that she wanted them to come and examine the Princess.
This...this...is this a princess?
Was she born to the Empress?
When was the Empress born? How come they don't know?
Seeing that the group was standing still, Mu Junyu glared at them unhappily and said, "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and check!"
"Yes." Startled by Mu Junyu's shout, the group responded in a flustered and confused manner.
Pei Luo and Su Yun'an went to the outer hall to avoid the situation.
The imperial physicians who were waiting in the outer hall stared in astonishment when they suddenly saw Su Yun'an emerge from inside.
The imperial physicians exchanged glances.
Are they seeing things? This child looks exactly like the Empress!
What's going on?
Where did this child come from?
Inside the inner chamber, several midwives noticed the newborn baby next to Su Xuening and realized that she must have just given birth.
The group dared not delay and immediately began to examine Su Xuening.
Previously, due to limited conditions on the back of the Fire Phoenix, many things were not handled very well.
This time, the midwives carefully redid Su Xuening's treatment.
Su Xuening also felt more comfortable than before.
There was no water to clean Su Xuening earlier, so Jinzhu went to fetch hot water and wiped the dirt off Su Xuening's body.
Mu Junyu then asked Jinzhu to fetch a clean set of clothes for Su Xuening to change into.
I must say, the midwives in Xiliang are really good. Perhaps because Xiliang is a matriarchal society, it places great importance on childbirth, so the midwives in Xiliang are more professional than those in other countries.
Su Xuening also felt this. After they redid it, Su Xuening felt as if she had been reborn, and her body felt much lighter.
After changing Su Xuening's clothes, Jinzhu looked at Xiaobao, who was still covered in blood, and quickly said, "Miss, should I go and clean the young master?"
If the young master had been born in a normal place, he would have been cleaned immediately after birth.
Su Xuening looked at the sleeping baby, who wasn't even in proper swaddling clothes, and nodded.
Seeing this, Jinzhu carefully picked up Xiaobao.
Bai was worried, so she went with Jinzhu to help clean Xiaobao.
