They talked for a while, and Si Chao was almost falling asleep in his arms.
It was at this moment that Tu Qingyu began to cry out in pain.
"Does it hurt?" Si Chao panicked for a moment. "It's time to give birth. I'll take you to the delivery room right now."
He stood up without even having time to put on his clothes or shoes. He bent down, picked up Tu Qingyu horizontally, and ran outside.
"Come quickly, prepare some hot water. Where are the midwives? Hurry, call everyone!"
The people in Fengyi Palace quickly took action. Tu Qingyu's move was sudden, and everyone was a little panicked at first.
But everything soon became orderly under the arrangement of the head nanny.
The ten secret guards, both visible and covert, became tense in an instant.
His eyes wanted to scan the palace maids passing by dozens of times.
"Your Majesty, please leave first so we can help deliver the baby."
Nanny Midwife was very nervous when she saw His Majesty was still here, fearing that she had done something wrong and would be dragged away and beheaded if she disagreed with him.
Si Chao held Tu Qingyu's hand tightly, and glanced sharply at the people in the delivery room. "You guys do your things, don't worry about me, I'll stay here with her."
"yes."
"You..." Tu Qingyu seemed to be in so much pain that she pushed him away weakly, "Get out first. It doesn't look good for me like this."
"Nonsense, in my eyes, you are the most beautiful no matter what you look like."
After saying that, he used his other hand to take a handkerchief and wipe the sweat from her forehead.
But the sweat seemed to be endless, and gradually, her face and lips turned pale.
"ah--!"
She cried out as if she couldn't bear the pain.
Si Chao looked at her trying hard to hold back her emotions, and his eyes turned red with heartache.
"My Lady, push harder, My Lady!"
“It hurts… it hurts so much…”
She grabbed Si Chao's hand, her short nails almost digging into his flesh.
But he didn't feel any pain at this moment, he just felt heartache.
Tu Wangshi was standing by and felt so distressed, but the delivery bed was only this big, and Si Chao was already squatting there, and there were several midwives, so she couldn't squeeze in.
This went on for an hour or two. Tu Qingyu's energy was getting weaker and weaker, and Si Chao's face was getting paler and paler.
"Almost there, I can see the end, my lady, push harder, my lady!"
"Wow--!"
When the clear crying sound rang out in the Dian Palace, not only Si Chao, but even the midwife was about to cry.
They were the most experienced midwives in the palace, and they had never been so nervous when delivering babies for the late emperor's concubines.
This is the first time I've delivered a baby under the watchful eyes of the emperor.
"It's a prince. Congratulations, Your Majesty, and Your Majesty!"
"She's pregnant. Why are you kneeling? Get up quickly."
"yes."
"My Lady, this is fast, please keep pushing harder, my Lady."
Seeing that Si Chao was about to faint, Tu Qingyu stopped teasing her and quickly gave birth to the remaining child.
A clear cry was heard again in the hall.
"It's a little princess. The queen gave birth to a little princess!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, and Your Majesty, for having a pair of dragon and phoenix."
Compared with other women in labor, Tu Qingyu's labor was not long, but everyone in the delivery room felt like crying with joy.
Si Chao collapsed directly to the ground, still holding Tu Qingyu's hand, with his head resting on the edge of the bed.
His body was shaking slightly, and it was unclear whether he was crying or laughing.
She shook his hand gently, "What's wrong with you?"
"It's okay." He raised his head again, his eyes misty, "I'm just too happy."
It’s so heartbreaking.
He knew that childbirth was painful, but he never imagined it would be this painful.
Just then the midwife spoke up, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is a blessed person. The birth was very quick. Congratulations to Your Majesty."
"quick?"
"Isn't it fast? I once saw a woman in the countryside who couldn't give birth for three days and three nights, and finally..."
The people in the delivery room gasped. Is this something that can be said at this time?
The maid knelt down and slapped herself in the face. "Look at this servant's mouth. Actually, I just want to say that Your Majesty has long-lasting good fortune and good health."
"Everyone, get up and clean up for me." After saying that, she pushed Si Chao and said, "Go out quickly. You need me to clean up."
"Actually, I also..."
He wanted to say that he could do it too, but Tu Qingyu glared at him and he had no choice but to follow Tu Wangshi out obediently.
After he went out, he was not idle either. He immediately asked someone to draft an imperial edict to confer the title of noble concubine on her.
On the day of the baby's third birthday, the news that Concubine Tu had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl, was announced to the world, as was her status as a noble concubine.
In the second month after the child was one month old, Tu Qingyu held the canonization ceremony.
She wore the attire of a noble concubine and accepted the kneeling worship of ladies from other courts.
Among the ladies of state, there was one whose eyes were fixed on her.
The hatred in his eyes was so intense that he wanted to expose her right then and there.
It was only when someone next to her tugged at her sleeve that the woman lowered her head, hiding the hatred in her eyes.
After the enthronement ceremony, Mrs. Zhao was stopped by Mrs. Qian on her way back.
"Sister Zhao, you were too bold just now. Don't you know how much His Majesty dotes on her now?"
"How could I not know? But I..." Madam Zhao's eyes quickly turned red. "Qin Xin has been in the palace for several years, and in the end, she was defeated by the daughter of a minor official."
The key is that we have lost, but Your Majesty is really cruel.
He showed no mercy to the minister who had followed him for many years.
If the old man had not sacrificed his reputation and made many concessions and promises, she would probably not even have the chance to enter the palace to pay homage to her enemy.
Anyone in the capital who knows something about what Zhao Xiuyi did to be deposed knows it.
Mrs. Qian naturally knew that according to her, the daughter of the Zhao family deserved to die.
There are so many lives on my hands.
She naturally wouldn't say such a thing.
"Since we grew up together, I'll just say a few words." She held Madam Zhao's hand and spoke very frankly. "Now that things have come to this, you shouldn't do anything else. She's already a noble concubine and has the full favor of His Majesty. She shouldn't be underestimated. Please don't..."
"I understand." Madam Zhao nodded, her eyes full of gratitude. "I won't act rashly. We can't defeat them, don't worry."
"It's best if you think so. I'll go back first."
"Um."
As soon as Mrs. Qian left, the smile on Mrs. Zhao's face faded.
Is there really nothing you can do to her?
Did her daughter lose her life in vain?
Just wait, she will definitely find an opportunity.
She had no choice but to let the imperial concubine stay in the palace in a high and mighty position, but she had a family.
I heard that this imperial concubine's favorite was her concubine sister who became a county lady.
He is indeed a person who is not worthy of being on the stage. As a legitimate daughter, he is not nice to his own legitimate sister, but is nice to a concubine's daughter.
