Suddenly, Shen Wangshu let out a shrill scream. She bent over in pain, the veins on her forehead bulged, and her body twitched violently.
The midwife immediately realized that the situation was not good, and she took prompt measures to provide full treatment.
The entire delivery room fell into chaos, and Shen Wangshu's screams echoed throughout the palace.
Basins of hot water were brought in, and basins of red water were poured out.
Everyone's heart was in their throat, and they couldn't imagine the tension and fear at that moment.
Time seemed to stand still, and every second felt like a century. Caught between despair and hope, no one could breathe.
The old emperor was even more anxious. He had finally had a son in his old age, and he hoped that God would not shatter his hope.
But there is someone who is even more anxious than him, and that is Mo Sichen who is far away in Lingnan.
When he heard the news from the palace, his heart was in a knot.
He immediately threw away the pen in his hand, rushed out of the military camp, and prepared to ride away on his horse.
But Qing Gu stopped him firmly, "Your Highness! You are not allowed to return to the capital without a transfer order! Your reckless return to the capital will not only arouse the Emperor's suspicion, but will also implicate the Imperial Concubine."
Mo Sichen's eyes were bloodshot, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Get out!"
She is in danger now, why should he care about so many things?
"Your Highness, the Imperial Concubine sent me a letter a few days ago, telling me and others not to worry about any news coming out of the palace. She will be fine and everything will proceed according to plan."
"If you return to Beijing now regardless of everything, you will probably miss the opportunity. Then the imperial concubine and the young prince will be in real danger." Qing Gu told Mo Sichen the whole truth, speaking each word carefully.
After hearing this, Mo Sichen abruptly retracted his steps.
"If you return to the capital now regardless of everything, you will probably miss the opportunity. Then the imperial concubine and the young prince will be in real danger." Qing Gu told Mo Sichen the whole truth, speaking each word carefully.
After hearing this, Mo Sichen abruptly retracted his steps.
He took a deep breath, trying to suppress the anxiety and anger in his heart.
The safety of Shushu and the child is of paramount importance, and he cannot put them in greater danger because of a momentary impulse.
"Qing Gu, come back to the camp with me and start training immediately." Mo Sichen's voice was steady and firm.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
At the same time, in the palace, Shen Wangshu's pain became more and more severe. She could hardly bear it anymore. She felt that she was almost out of strength due to the pain.
He asked Lianzhi to distract the midwife and others, while he took the opportunity to take the painless delivery pill.
After a moment, she felt the tearing pain slowly subside.
Phew, much more comfortable.
So much so that later on, her screams became quieter and quieter, and in the end she was too lazy to even hum.
Little did she know that her condition was very bad in the eyes of the midwife.
"My Lady, please hold on a little longer!"
The midwife continued to urge, cold sweat already appearing on her forehead. The two strands of bangs hanging down from her forehead stuck to her eyebrows, but they could not hide her panic and anxiety at all.
"Hurry, hurry, feed the Imperial Concubine some ginseng soup."
The midwife continued to urge, cold sweat already appearing on her forehead. The two strands of bangs hanging down from her forehead stuck to her eyebrows, but they could not hide her panic and anxiety at all.
"Hurry, hurry, feed the Imperial Concubine some ginseng soup."
The others hurriedly picked up a bowl of steaming ginseng soup and hurriedly handed it to Shen Wangshu's mouth.
Although Shen Wangshu felt exhausted, he still managed to drink a few trembling sips.
The warmth of the ginseng soup immediately warmed her body, as if a warm current surged from deep within her heart, taking away some of her discomfort.
She closed her eyes, feeling the warmth and strength brought by the ginseng soup, and prepared to quietly recover her strength.
But she couldn't appear too calm, so she hummed from time to time.
…
When it was past midnight, Shen Wangshu suddenly held the midwife's hand tightly and couldn't help but let out a low moan.
The midwife immediately understood the signal and found that Shen Wangshu's cervix was fully dilated. She was overjoyed and kept comforting Shen Wangshu, asking her to take a deep breath and push.
At this moment, Shen Wangshu's face showed great pain, and his screams were getting louder and louder, which made the old emperor outside the door feel heartbroken.
Finally, thanks to Shen Wangshu's "efforts", the child was born safely.
The midwife excitedly wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and said, "Congratulations, Imperial Concubine, it's a baby boy..."
However, before he could finish his words, Shen Wangshu closed his eyes and fainted.
After a whole day of tossing and turning, although Shen Wangshu didn't feel much pain afterwards, giving birth is really a physical job, and he had to struggle to hold on.
Now that the baby was finally out, her heavy eyelids forced her to close her eyes.
But this frightened the midwife to death. She no longer cared about the precious prince in her hands and quickly handed the child to the old woman who was helping her.
She hurriedly checked Shen Wangshu's breath and found that he was still breathing.
But just as she breathed a sigh of relief, she saw blood oozing out from under Shen Wangshu.
"Hurry, hurry, it's terrible, the imperial concubine is bleeding profusely! Call the imperial physician in!"
However, what the midwife did not notice was that the newborn prince did not cry out loudly like an ordinary baby, but only closed his eyes and breathed weakly.
When the old woman saw that everyone's attention was on Shen Wangshu, she exchanged glances with another old woman who was helping, and the cruelty in her eyes was revealed.
