"Lady Xia—it's only been seven months, right?"
Chen Miaoyi said, what happened, was she giving birth prematurely?
"Go and take a look. You are in poor health, so just stay in the palace?" the emperor asked. What if it was too bloody and scared her?
"I will go too."
Chen Miaoyi held the emperor's hand and sat on the dragon chariot for a while!
When they arrived, all the high-ranking ladies in the palace were there. There was such a large group of beautiful women. Were they there to see the emperor or were they really worried about Concubine Xia?
Concubine Rong sat at the front and moved a stool to wait, as if she had become the leader of all the concubines.
When he saw the emperor coming, he just bowed in vain. But when he saw Chen Miaoyi and the emperor getting off the dragon chariot together, he looked at her with unfriendly and amusing eyes.
This wave of hatred reached its maximum value, and the other concubines around her looked at her as if they wanted to eat her alive.
That is a dragon sedan chair. The emperor rides on it and the empress rides on a phoenix sedan chair. How could a mere noble lady ride on it? The emperor really does pamper them without any restraint!
"How is Lady Xia?"
The emperor asked, Rong Fei's face showed no sign of panic, but rather calmness.
"I heard it was caused by anxiety and premature birth."
Concubine Rong thought about the deal between herself and Concubine Xia and was not in a hurry at all. Listening to Concubine Xia's painful roars, she felt very comfortable.
Anger? The emperor knew what was going on immediately. The news from the previous dynasty spread too quickly and had actually hurt the heir to the throne.
Chen Miaoyi protected her belly and listened silently to the movements inside.
"System, go check if it's a boy or a girl?"
She was too lazy to wait and wanted to know in advance.
The system obediently released its consciousness, "It's a girl, wilted."
In this case, the baby in her belly would be even heavier.
delivery room.
"My lady, please push harder!"
"We're almost there, push harder! Don't just howl, put your strength into the lower body!"
Concubine Xia was sweating profusely and biting the cloth in her mouth. She felt like her teeth were about to break. Giving birth was so difficult.
After learning about the situation at home, she couldn't wait to open the blind box. It must be a prince, and the eldest prince must come out of her belly.
As long as she gave birth to the eldest prince, the family crisis would be resolved and she could move up a lot.
Even if it was a princess, Concubine Xia thought of Concubine Rong's words. If she gave birth to a princess, she could save the family.
But time waits for no one. If the baby doesn't come out soon, it will be too late. She can only induce labor. No matter whether it is a boy or a girl, the baby must come out before Chen Miaoyi's baby!
The hatred in her heart grew stronger and stronger. Concubine Xia struggled for her last breath, and her lower body felt a tearing pain.
"ah----"
"It's out, it's out, it's born!"
"Quick! Go and report to the Emperor!"
The exhausted Concubine Xia felt like something was missing in her stomach and grabbed the midwife.
"Is it a prince or a princess?"
The midwife wiped the baby's body and said, "Congratulations, Madam! It's a princess!"
The child didn't cry. The midwife patted her on the back a few times before she started crying.
Princess? Haha, Lady Xia is in pain and tired, but it doesn’t matter. If she can give birth to one, she can give birth to a second!
As long as the emperor is around, she won't have to worry about not giving birth to a prince!
Concubine Xia didn't even look at the child she had given birth to after so much pain. She felt relieved, thinking that the crisis at home would at least be resolved.
When the people outside heard the crying, some felt relieved, some almost gritted their teeth, and some almost tore their handkerchiefs into pieces.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Concubine Xia has given Your Majesty a little princess!"
The emperor took a look and, as expected, felt disappointed, then casually offered his appreciation.
A smile bloomed on Rong Fei's gentle face. Hello, Princess~
"Your Majesty, this time it was Concubine Xia who caused the princess to give birth prematurely due to her impatience. She deserves to be punished.
But she has also made contributions, and she should be rewarded as she deserves.
I don't have any children, so why don't you let me raise you, Princess?"
Concubine Rong held the emperor's arm and said, "This child has been squatting for several months!"
She finally found a mistake to make trouble for Concubine Xia's family, and she is determined to get this child!
The emperor frowned and said, "Lady Xia just gave birth to a princess, so let's not talk about this matter for now."
Who would have their baby taken away right after giving birth? Concubine Xia is not a criminal. Her family had something wrong, so they wouldn't vent their anger on her who had just given birth.
The emperor was still somewhat tolerant towards concubines who could give birth to children.
But how could Rong Fei give up so easily? "Your Majesty, Concubine Xia and I are as close as sisters. We had joked before that you would let me raise the child.
The princess's mother is a concubine and treats the princess better."
How can a foster mother be better than a biological mother?
After hearing her words, the emperor wondered what Concubine Xia was thinking. Why would she give away her own child?
The concubines around her also looked at each other, expressing their deep incomprehension of Concubine Xia's actions.
There are only two princesses in the palace, and you are the third princess, which is also a rare child!
Are you just going to give it away for nothing? With a princess by your side, are you still worried about not being pampered? Are you still worried about not having wealth and glory?
They wanted to have children but couldn't, and Concubine Xia didn't want the child after she gave birth.
But who knew the deal between Concubine Xia and Concubine Rong!
If she doesn't give him the child, her family will fall to the bottom and there will be no chance of climbing up again.
By giving it to the child, at least she kept her position.
The emperor was a little skeptical. After cleaning up, he took Concubine Rong in, and a group of concubines followed him in to visit Concubine Xia.
"Lady Xia, I heard that you want to let Concubine Rong raise this child?"
The emperor asked straight to the point, how could there be such a heartless mother?
Concubine Xia looked up at him, but she didn't expect that what she was waiting for was not a promotion, but questioning.
"Empress Rong and I are like sisters. She has no children, and I..."
Concubine Xia suddenly felt a little regretful. This was a little different from what Concubine Rong said. She said that she had discussed it with the emperor!
Why does the emperor look so scary?
"Your Majesty, please see. I will tell Lady Xia that we have already made an agreement. Lady Xia is kind-hearted. I will take note of this."
Concubine Rong spoke to Concubine Xia with a smile on her face, but the threat in her eyes could not be hidden.
The emperor looked at Concubine Xia with disappointment. Is there really such a woman who would push her own child away?
He thought of Chen Miaoyi and looked at her. She was protecting her belly and frowning at Concubine Xia.
She must think Concubine Xia is very cruel, the emperor suddenly remembered, she said she wanted to raise the child herself.
There is no harm without comparison.
"Okay, Concubine Xia gave birth to the third princess and was promoted to concubine. After one month, the third princess will be registered under Concubine Rong's name and raised by Concubine Rong."
The emperor looked at Concubine Xia coldly and said, "You will never have children again in this life."
Lady Xia never thought she could rise to a higher rank! She thought her merits and demerits would be offset and the matter would be over!
"Your Majesty, I thank you!" Concubine Xia ignored the pain and wanted to get up to express her gratitude.
Concubine Rong also quickly thanked her. Looking at the little princess, she wished she could take her away right away. A month was too long.
