Zhao Yun frowned slightly as he looked at Ye Wanhe who was enduring the pain. In the past, he only felt that Ye Wanhe was respectful and polite to him, but she had not yet adapted to the transformation from a palace maid to a princess consort.
But today, despite being in so much pain, she was still so distant and polite.
Ye Wanhe didn't care about Zhao Yun at this moment. She had heard Yun Xiangye talk about the pain of childbirth before, but she didn't expect it to be so painful.
Not long after, Queen Wei rushed to the delivery room. Seeing Zhao Yun beside Ye Wanhe, she said, "Yun'er, go out first."
Zhao Yun asked, "Mother, do you also think that childbirth is unclean?"
Queen Wei said, "Of course not. It's just that the midwives will be filled with fear if you stay in the room. If you leave, they will feel more at ease."
Zhao Yun held Ye Wanhe's hand tightly and said, "Mother, I don't want to leave here. I want to see the birth of my child with her in person."
Queen Wei smiled and said to the midwife beside her, "Just pretend that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not here and help His Royal Highness the Crown Princess deliver her baby. If both mother and child are safe, you will be rewarded handsomely."
The midwives became extremely alert after hearing what Queen Wei said. They were originally afraid of losing their heads, but now they heard that there would be a huge reward, and thought that the midwife might be the future ruler of the world, so they dared not be negligent in the slightest.
Ye Wanhe was in so much pain that sweat broke out on her forehead. She couldn't bear the pain when she heard the midwife say that her cervix was not fully dilated yet.
Zhao Yun controlled his temper and did not scold the midwives.
Half an hour... an hour... until two hours passed, Ye Wanhe felt exhausted and could only hold ginseng in her mouth to replenish her strength.
When Ye Wanhe felt darkness before her eyes, she murmured softly, "Mother...Father..."
Zhao Yun listened to Ye Wanhe's words, held her hand tightly and said, "The baby will be out soon, Wanhe, please use more strength."
Ye Wanhe was almost unconscious and could only call out for her mother and father.
Ye Wanhe only felt as if a child appeared in front of her, just like the child in her dream. He smiled at her and said, "Mother, Mother..."
Ye Wanhe stretched out her hand and said, "Don't be afraid. Mother will finally come to compensate you. You have been alone for more than six years. Mother will not let you suffer any longer..."
Zhao Yun listened to Ye Wanhe's words and kept calling her to wake up. He frowned and looked at the midwife and the female imperial physician beside him and asked, "What do you eat? Why does it take so long to give birth to a child?"
The midwife whispered, "The little prince's head is really too big. This... can only be lifted up by Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess."
Queen Wei came in hurriedly with Xie Zhixuan outside and said, "I don't want to trouble you, but it's already two hours."
Xie Zhixuan said, "I'm a doctor, so I don't care whether it's troublesome or not."
Xie Zhixuan came forward to take a look and said, "It's much better than when you gave birth to Yun'er. Everyone, get out. Yun'er, you get out too."
Zhao Yun looked at Xie Zhixuan, somewhat reluctant to let go. He was afraid that if he let go, he would lose Ye Wanhe forever. This premonition had become stronger in the past few days.
Xie Zhixuan said, "You don't trust others, so don't you trust me?"
Empress Wei said to Zhao Yun, "Go quickly and trust your aunt."
Only then did Zhao Yun leave the delivery room.
Zhao Yun went outside and paced back and forth, feeling extremely anxious.
"Father." Zhao Yun hurriedly bowed when he saw His Majesty coming.
His Majesty, upon seeing Zhao Yun's appearance, said, "Time has flown by so quickly. When your mother gave birth to you, it was a very dangerous time. Fortunately, your aunt was there to help. Now your child is about to be born... Trust your aunt."
Zhao Yun kept pacing, feeling more and more nervous as time went by: "It's almost midnight, why hasn't the baby been born yet?"
When Zhao Yun saw the basins of blood being brought out, he ignored the obstruction and entered the house.
As soon as I entered the house, I heard the crying of a baby and saw the midwives holding a chubby, white newborn baby.
Xie Zhixuan said from the side: "It's rare to see a baby so white and chubby when he's just born. It shows how much you, Wanhe, have suffered."
Zhao Yun hurried forward and held Ye Wanhe's hand, "Wanhe."
Ye Wanhe no longer had much strength left. She said to Zhao Yun in a daze, "Your Highness... If... If I can't survive this disaster... I want to leave... leave the palace and take my coffin back to Yongxing City."
Zhao Yun frowned and said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. You are my wife in life and my Crown Princess in death. I will never let you leave the palace. Don't say such depressing words. Our child is born."
The midwife also walked up to Ye Wanhe holding the child and said, "Your Highness, the Crown Princess, it's a little grandson weighing 8.6 jins. This child was white and chubby when he was born. He is very blessed."
Ye Wanhe's vision was already blurry. After hearing the baby crying, she saw the child through her tearful eyes, but she eventually fell asleep.
"Wanhe! Auntie..."
Xie Zhixuan said to Zhao Yun, "Giving birth has damaged her energy and blood. She's too tired and can't hold on any longer. Let her have a good sleep."
Empress Wei heard the baby crying outside and entered the palace. Seeing her grandson already in swaddling clothes, she took the child with a smile and said, "You are even stronger than when Yun'er was born. No wonder she tortured your mother for so long. You must be filial to your mother in the future."
Xie Zhixuan smiled and congratulated: "Congratulations, sister-in-law, congratulations, sister-in-law, on the birth of your grandson."
Queen Wei said, "Sister, I don't know how to thank you. When I gave birth to Yun'er, it was thanks to you that I saved my life. Now it is thanks to you again. I don't know how to repay this great kindness."
