Xie Yuan worried that Helian Jue, being an ancient person, would not be able to accept such advanced medical methods.
She underestimated her importance in Helian Jue's heart.
Or perhaps she underestimated Helian Jue's stubbornness and pride!
Once a person has made up their mind about something, they will stick to it no matter how outrageous it may seem.
"Ah Yuan, don't worry, I'll always be with you!"
"No matter what happens, I will protect you."
Helian Jue carried Xie Yuan as they ran, offering quiet words of comfort.
Before long, the two arrived at the delivery room that had been prepared in advance.
Helian Jue placed Xie Yuan on the delivery bed, which was covered with clean white sheets.
"Your Highness, please go out first."
Granny Zhao and a group of servants surrounded Helian Jue, trying to get her out of the delivery room.
"Ah Yuan!"
Helian Jue, however, remained rooted to the spot, unmoved, staring intently at Xie Yuan.
Xie Yuan was already sweating profusely from the pain, enduring wave after wave of agony, and gritted his teeth as he shook his head at Helian Jue, asking him to leave.
Even the most loving couples should maintain a certain degree of "mystery".
When a woman gives birth, it is probably the most miserable moment of her life.
Anything can happen.
Disgusting scenes of women giving birth but producing feces instead can also occur.
Xie Yuan didn't want Helian Jue to see his "ugliest" side.
Seeing Xie Yuan's insistence, Helian Jue could not linger any longer and was pushed out of the delivery room by Zhao Mama and the others.
It wasn't until he stepped outside and felt the damp wind that Helian Jue realized his back was completely soaked with sweat.
His forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat.
For the first time, the former crown prince, who was always particular about his appearance and demeanor, did not dab with a handkerchief with restraint, but casually raised his sleeve to wipe his forehead.
"Your Highness, the Princess Consort is of noble birth and has done many good deeds; she will surely be safe and sound!"
Seeing that his lord was so anxious that he was losing his composure, the usually quick-witted eunuch Duoshou spoke inappropriately.
What does it mean to have a noble status or to do good deeds? Can these things be put together?
Duofu rolled his eyes inwardly, and considerately brought over a folding stool (an ancient type of stool), "Your Highness, please sit down first."
Childbirth, especially for a first child, takes a long time.
In the palace, Duofu had seen a concubine who had been giving birth for a day and a night.
Tsk tsk, you can hear those shouts from far away; it's the middle of the night, and no one can have a peaceful night.
The princess herself was quite something; she didn't utter a single sound once she entered the delivery room.
Duofu inquired with the imperial physician and learned that experienced or intelligent women in labor know that shouting is the worst thing to do, as it can easily exhaust them.
We still need to conserve our strength, stay clear-headed, and unleash our power at the last moment.
This makes production easier and smoother.
As expected of a princess, she can endure it so well even during her first childbirth!
It's just unknown how long the princess's delivery will take.
If it lasts for a whole day and night, that would be too much suffering.
The prince also suffered as a result.
Thinking to himself, Duofu tried to invite Helian Jue to sit down.
Helian Jue waved his hand impatiently and kicked the folding chair aside.
Why sit?
What time is it?!
Helian Jue's heart felt like it was on a hot iron plate, tormented by all sorts of pain.
"Ah Yuan? How are you?"
Why didn't you even call out?
Helian Jue had also witnessed other concubines giving birth while in the palace.
Basically, it was all shouting and screaming, like ghosts howling.
But his own Ah Yuan didn't even make a sound.
Helian Jue crouched down at the door and peered through the crack.
Xie Yuan: ...What else can I do?
Of course it hurts!
It hurts as if my body is being split in two!
The pain was so intense that I didn't even want to speak.
However, Xie Yuan could still hear a noticeable tremor in Helian Jue's voice.
He's worried!
Having weathered the initial pain, Xie Yuan took a deep breath and exclaimed, "A-Xi, I'm fine! You...you don't need to worry!"
Don't say anything more.
Staying put is better than anything else!
I really don't have the energy to care about you anymore.
Now, at this point, Xie Yuan was already quite restrained, unlike some women in later generations who would grab their husbands' hair and yell, "It's all your fault! It's all your fault!"
Even when she was in so much pain she was about to faint, Xie Yuan always remembered:
Helian Jue is not only her husband and the father of her child, but also the Prince of Yue, who holds great military power!
"Okay! I'll be right outside the door!"
"Ah Yuan, don't be afraid, I will always protect you!"
"Imperial Physician Feng and several other imperial physicians have also arrived, along with female physicians and midwives!"
"I...I found the best midwife; she can even handle difficult births like 'transverse delivery'!"
Helian Jue knew he should sit dignifiedly to one side and quietly await the arrival of the child.
He can even go to other departments to handle official business.
It's not too late for him to come over once there's good news here!
But Helian Jue couldn't do it.
The woman giving birth inside was none other than A-Yuan, his A-Yuan!
Helian Jue could not leave, much less remain indifferent.
He was worried, he felt heartache, and he harbored a deep fear—
Ah Yuan, you won't leave like this, will you?
Won't!
Definitely not!
Even if something unexpected happens, I will do everything in my power to salvage the situation!
"Hmm!"
Wave after wave of contractions, each more urgent and more painful than the last.
Xie Yuan finally couldn't hold back and let out a muffled groan.
