As it turned out, they all underestimated the difficulty of the Crown Princess's pregnancy.
An hour later, the midwife came out with her hands trembling and covered in blood, "Your Highness, the fetus is in an abnormal position. I'm afraid it's a difficult birth..."
"Where's the imperial physician? Let him in to treat the patient!"
"promise."
First, the imperial physician gave the baby acupuncture. After the acupuncture, the baby still didn't move. One of the midwives said, "Your Majesty, I have a way to move the baby, which is..."
"It's just... what?" The Crown Princess' face was pale and her body was soaked.
The pain made her feel a little dizzy, but she tried her best to stay awake.
"This servant can push your majesty's belly and move the baby to the correct position, that is..."
"It's already this late, why are you still hesitating?" The Crown Princess's wet nurse couldn't stand it anymore.
"It will be a little painful, please be patient, madam."
The imperial physician also said, "I have also heard that a skilled midwife can help the fetus to be positioned correctly."
His master could actually correct the fetus's position through acupuncture. Although he had learned a few tricks, he was not familiar with the acupuncture techniques, so how could he dare to use them on the Crown Princess?
The Crown Princess gritted her teeth and said, "Push!"
It already hurts so much, how much more can it hurt?
The midwife took out a piece of wood wrapped in cotton cloth and said, "My queen, bite this, or you won't have the strength to scream soon."
The Crown Princess bit it without saying a word.
The nanny placed her hands on the Crown Princess's belly and began to push.
“Ugh—!”
At that moment, the Crown Princess' pupils dilated and her face distorted.
After finally getting the fetus in the right position, the midwife said again, "My Lady, the fetus is too big, this..."
If this goes on, there might be two deaths.
The wet nurse was also panicked. "I heard that in folk customs, if the fetus is too big, they would use a rolling pin? And, and..."
Nanny: "You can also pull it by hand, but it's too painful. I'm afraid the queen can't bear it..."
"Go, don't worry about me." The Crown Princess spat out the wood in her mouth, "I, I must... give birth to this child..."
After receiving permission, the midwife began to push the Crown Princess' belly. The midwife below saw the right moment and said, "Your Majesty, push harder!"
"Ah—your highness—!"
“Wow wow wow…”
Heart-wrenching cries and the crying of a baby rang out at the same time.
Jiang Jingchuan, who was sitting outside, felt his heart tighten.
Tu Qingyu gave birth too quickly, and he had no idea that giving birth could be such a painful thing.
Now he inexplicably recalled what Tu Qingyu said to him after giving birth: It hurts.
It turns out it really hurts that much.
But his little rabbit pretended to be strong. He just said it hurt and never mentioned it again.
"Congratulations, Madam, it's a little princess."
When she heard it was a daughter, the Crown Princess fainted.
The imperial physician skillfully brought the medicine and said, "Have it drink, Your Majesty. Your body has been damaged, so you must take good care of yourself from now on."
The nanny took the medicine bowl and said with tears in her eyes, "Thank you, Imperial Physician."
She was crying while feeding the Crown Princess medicine.
It is so heartbreaking. She suffered so much and thought she could give birth to a legitimate son for His Highness, but she didn't expect it to be a princess.
Why does her master have such a miserable life?
The midwife carried the child out and said, "Your Highness, the Queen has given birth to a little princess. The little princess weighs 7.6 jins and is very healthy."
Jiang Jingchuan took a look and found them wrinkled and red, not as pretty as Yu'er's two children.
But after all, she is my daughter, and I still love her in my heart.
He skillfully held the child in his arms and said, "The little princess will be called Anrou, Jiang Anrou."
"Thank you for the name, Your Highness. The Queen will be very happy when she wakes up."
"In addition, everyone in Yichun Palace will receive three months' worth of monthly allowances."
"Thank you for the reward, Your Highness!"
Everyone in Yichun Palace knelt down to express their gratitude, looking happy on the outside, but they were not happy in their hearts.
When there are many people, the problem is not the lack of wealth but the inequality of distribution.
If we don’t compare it with the monthly allowance of Qionghua Palace in a year, three months is already very good.
But it just so happens that it takes a year for a Concubine to give birth to a child, but only three months for a Crown Princess.
At this moment, the palace servants in the Eastern Palace were extremely eager to work in the Qionghua Palace.
Jiang Jingchuan didn't stay in Yichun Palace for long. After giving some instructions to the wet nurse, he returned to Qionghua Palace and went to sleep with Tu Qingyu in his arms.
The Crown Princess had been busy for a long time, and he only took a nap for half an hour before he had to get up again to attend the morning court.
"Prince, I heard that the Crown Princess gave birth?" The emperor asked in the imperial study after the morning court.
Jiang Jingchuan bowed, "Father, yes, a little princess was born last night."
"Little Princess, it's fine, Little Princess." He said it was fine, but he didn't seem very happy. "First bloom and then bear fruit, don't worry, you will eventually have a legitimate son."
It doesn’t matter if you don’t have one. The twins, a boy and a girl, who are born with auspiciousness are comparable to a legitimate son.
"I know."
Although the Crown Princess gave birth to a daughter, she still had to be rewarded.
The old emperor waved his hand, and the prince returned to the East Palace with the reward.
The Crown Princess woke up at 9:00 PM. The first thing she asked was, "Where's His Highness?"
"Your Highness..." The nurse was a little reluctant, but she still told the truth: "Your Highness is in Qionghua Palace."
It’s her again, why is it her again? She has given birth to a child, and His Highness doesn’t even come to see her!
"Then... the child..."
As soon as she mentioned the child, a nanny came in holding the child.
The nanny took it and said, "Your Majesty, look, our little princess is so beautiful. When she grows up, she will definitely be a stunning beauty that will captivate the whole country."
"It's really a girl." The Crown Princess looked at the child with disappointment.
Before she fainted, she heard someone say it was a little princess, and she was lucky enough to think that maybe she was in too much pain and had heard it wrong.
I didn’t expect it to be true.
She glanced at it and then glanced away, "It's just red, what's so good about it?"
Nanny: "My Lady, all newborn babies are like this. They will be fine after a few days."
"Yeah?"
But she still doesn't like it.
She didn't know why, but the first time she saw the child, she felt a slight displeasure in her heart.
When I think about how much I've suffered because of her, and how I still can't get His Highness's love...
The wet nurse looked at her helplessly. Her master had gone a little crazy since she knew that Tu Liangdi had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl.
I just hope that the Queen will come to her senses soon. Isn't it torturing yourself to keep going like this?
Over in the Qionghua Palace, Jiang Jingchuan held Tu Qingyu in his arms after seeing the child and said, "Yu'er, your husband has something to tell you. Don't be angry."
"What?" She turned her head with confusion in her eyes.
Having given birth to a child, her eyes seemed even brighter.
He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he even felt that his skin became clearer and more tender.
"Your Highness?" Seeing that she was in a trance, Tu Qingyu called out softly again.
