Zhao Qingyan managed to bluff her way out of the situation by saying that she hadn't gained weight after giving birth.
It wasn't that she wanted to keep it a secret; she simply couldn't explain it.
However, even some simple common sense was enough for these ancient people to benefit from.
Time passed quickly, and the court officials finally witnessed the new emperor's ascension to the throne.
For ordinary people, it doesn't matter who becomes emperor.
After all, no matter who is emperor, the common people still eat and drink the same things. Perhaps the biggest difference is the number of corrupt officials.
Zhao Minggeng and his wife, as well as Xu Dongsheng and his wife, were all required to attend the ceremony, but Princess Yanyue's belly was simply too big.
My due date is in the next few days.
Out of courtesy, Yan Yue had no choice but to kowtow to the new emperor; it was both a matter of etiquette and a matter of attitude.
As the eldest princess, why didn't she attend the new emperor's enthronement ceremony? What is she trying to do? Is she dissatisfied?
Because Yan Yue was pregnant, Zhao Minggeng did not let her get tired, even during the sacrificial ceremony.
During the hike, Zhao Minggeng carried Yan Yue the whole time, afraid that taking even one extra step would tire his wife.
Even so, Yan Yue had to stand and watch the entire ceremony, and also kneel and kowtow, which was really hard work.
Princess Yan Yue launched her attack on the very night the new emperor ascended the throne.
Fortunately, Yan Yue is usually very active, so she is in good health.
In addition, as the due date approached, Zhao Minggeng took good care of the princess's diet, and in the late stages of pregnancy, the princess's belly did not grow particularly large.
However, twins always come with risks.
As soon as the princess went into labor, the midwives, imperial physicians, and others were all in place.
The young masters of each household all returned in the middle of the night.
Fortunately, due to the special circumstances of the new emperor's ascension to the throne today, the curfew was lifted; otherwise, none of Zhao Qingyan and her two siblings would have been able to return.
Fu Nan and her brother were also brought back by Zhao Qingyan.
The first thing Zhao Qingyan did upon returning was to take out a thousand-year-old ginseng.
The princess held the slice in her mouth, and she changed her clothes, washed her hands, and went into the delivery room.
Anything can happen when a woman gives birth.
Zhao Qingyan didn't want anything to happen to the princess, otherwise her biological father would be in a terrible situation.
"Don't cry, don't shout. The imperial physician and the midwife both said that the baby's position is correct."
That means the mother was able to give birth smoothly.
There are two babies in the mother's belly, and they must be as beautiful as their mother.
Now, breathe with me, inhale, exhale…
Zhao Qingyan's presence in the delivery room proved effective; the princess's previous panic subsided.
Even during labor pains, she was still able to put food in her mouth.
The ginseng that had been in her mouth had long since been chewed and swallowed by the princess.
I don't know if it's because the ginseng has an effect, or because the ginseng grows in the space and is imbued with spiritual energy.
After eating it, the princess felt much better.
Although it still hurt, the pain was within her tolerance level. At least the lower back and abdomen no longer ached as before.
Twin births are generally quite dangerous, but the eldest princess's delivery was exceptionally smooth.
After about an hour and a half of fussing, the two babies were born.
As the princess wished, the girl was made the older sister and the boy the younger brother.
Both little ones weigh over five pounds each. Although they are not fat, they are much longer than the average child.
There's an old saying: "If you have bones, you won't worry about meat." That's the idea; you won't have to worry about raising a child poorly.
During the production process, Zhao Qingyan fed Yan Yue another piece of ginseng.
The result of consuming ginseng is that while others might be exhausted and haggard, the princess, fresh out of childbirth, is radiant and full of energy.
Super energetic, demanding a big bowl of braised pork noodles.
