Chapter 364: Her Highness experiences pregnancy reaction, gives birth to a baby in the middle of the night and refuses to leave

Concubine Xu was furious when she heard this, and she almost threw her handkerchief at Concubine Xue's face, "If you can't speak, don't speak."

"Why are you angry, Concubine Xu? I'm just reminding you in a friendly way." Concubine Xue stared at Shen Chuwei's belly again. That belly was much bigger than that of an average person. A difficult birth would naturally be the best, as it would mean two lives.

Concubine Xu snorted: "You don't need to remind me, Shen Liangdi and the baby will definitely be safe."

Concubine Xue nodded in agreement, "This is your highness's first child. I think so too. It's best if they are safe."

Princess Xue didn't stay long and went back.

As soon as Concubine Xue left, Concubine Xu couldn't help but say, "Shen Liang Di, don't let the baby wear the little clothes she gave you. If she has bad intentions, it's not a joke."

Tao Liangyuan also nodded in agreement, "What Concubine Xu said makes sense. It's better to be more careful."

Shen Chu nodded, "I know, don't worry."

Chunxi put the small clothes given by Concubine Xue in a cloth bag and placed it in a separate place.

As the birth approached, the Empress came almost every day.

"Shen Liang Di, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? If you are uncomfortable, please tell us as soon as possible so that Doctor Yu can take a look."

Shen Chuwei touched her belly. Apart from the false labor, there was nothing wrong with her.

"Your Majesty, I am fine, and the babies are safe too."

"That's good. Don't be nervous. I have already made arrangements and will ensure everything goes smoothly."

The Queen had actually already made arrangements. The midwife had arranged three midwives, all of whom were experienced midwives.

Doctor Yu also arranged three people to be on standby at all times.

Twins may be born from different wombs, so be fully prepared.

Because Shen Chuwei was about to give birth, the emperor reduced his burden and Xiao Jinyan had some free time.

As time got closer, Xiao Jinyan became more and more nervous. He felt the nervousness of being a father for the first time and the nervousness of giving birth to Xiaojiu.

In the late pregnancy, my appetite was not good and I also had symptoms of vomiting.

Shen Chuwei, on the contrary, enjoyed everything she ate and had no symptoms of nausea or vomiting.

At lunch, Shen Chuwei ate three bowls of rice and looked at the bowl of rice in front of Xiao Jinyan without touching it.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Jinyan put down the chopsticks in his hand, "I have no appetite."

Shen Chuwei noticed that Xiao Jinyan's appetite had not been very good in the past few days, "Your Highness, are you sick?"

"I don't know either. I have no appetite these days and I even feel like vomiting." Xiao Jinyan said. When he smelled the braised pork, his stomach churned. He covered his mouth to suppress the nausea.

Shen Chuwei saw something was wrong, put down the chopsticks in his hand, stood up and walked over, took Xiao Jinyan's hand, and took his pulse.

Xiao Jinyan picked up the teacup and took a few sips of tea. When his stomach felt better, he spoke, "I just feel a little uncomfortable. I will be fine in two days."

Shen Chuwei put down his hand and said, "Your Highness, it may be due to psychological reasons."

Xiao Jinyan asked doubtfully, "What do you mean?"

Shen Chuwei explained: "This is called pregnancy-associated syndrome, and it is also a psychological cause. These symptoms should have been on me, but now they appear on Your Highness."

Xiao Jinyan's eyes froze. It was the first time he heard about pregnancy-associated syndrome. However, he had indeed been too nervous and worried recently.

But soon, Xiao Jinyan felt relieved.

If these are what Xiaojiu should endure, he is willing to bear them now no matter how painful it is.

Only by experiencing it yourself can you understand how difficult it was for Xiaojiu to be pregnant.

"As long as you're okay."

Shen Chuwei felt a little distressed, "Your Highness seems to have lost weight in the past few days."

Xiao Jinyan said: "No problem, I will be fine after you give birth."

Pregnancy-associated syndrome made Xiao Jinyan, a grown man, experience the feeling of pregnancy.

Shen Chuwei prepared Lychee Plum for Xiao Jinyan.

Xiao Jinyan doesn't like sour food, but this time is different. After eating the Lychee Plums that Xiaojiu fed him, he felt a lot better in his stomach.

In the last few days before her due date, Xiao Jinyan's symptoms became more obvious.

When Shen Chuwei was eating crystal pork elbow, Xiao Jinyan vomited immediately after smelling the greasy taste, so she had to eat away from Xiao Jinyan.

Xiao Jinyan usually doesn't eat spicy or sour food, but for the first time ever, he ate spicy and sour shredded potatoes as an appetizer.

Shen Chuwei's only symptom was frequent urination.

I woke up several times during the night, but fortunately I slept well and fell asleep right after going to the bathroom.

It’s a pity for Xiao Jinyan that once he wakes up, it’s hard for him to fall asleep again.

Shen Chuwei felt extremely distressed when she saw the Crown Prince becoming increasingly thinner.

"Your Highness, I will sleep outside. This way, when I get up at night, Your Highness doesn't have to get up."

Xiao Jinyan refused directly: "How can that be possible? Sleeping outside is too dangerous."

Shen Chuwei said: "Your Highness, I am fine. I just need to get up at night."

Xiao Jinyan hugged her and said nonchalantly, "Xiaojiu, you don't have to pay attention to me. It's only a few days away from giving birth. Just get through it."

Shen Chuwei had no choice but to give up.

Every time she got up at night, Xiao Jinyan would still wake up and accompany her. He would only lie down beside her peacefully after she lay down on the bed.

On the day of the due date, Shen Chuwei stared at her round belly. The babies were very well behaved. Not only did they not move, they also slept soundly.

Xiao Jinyan stayed by Shen Chuwei's side the whole day, fearing that she would give birth suddenly while he was not around.

He sat next to Shen Chuwei, touched her belly and asked, "Are you going to have the baby today?"

Shen Chuwei said: "I don't know either. It seems that the babies are not planning to check out yet."

Xiao Jinyan looked at her doubtfully, "Check out?"

Shen Chuwei explained: "The belly is like the baby's house. After it comes out, it's like giving up the house."

Xiao Jinyan now understood that the metaphor was very appropriate.

"No problem, let's wait and see tomorrow."

The Empress came early in the morning, followed by a large group of people including the doctors and the waiters.

"How do you feel? Do you have any stomachache?"

Shen Chuwei shrugged helplessly, "Your Majesty, there is none yet. We may have to wait for two days."

The queen heard this and smiled and comforted him, "It's okay. So many days have passed. One or two days won't make a difference."

That night

After Shen Chuwei got up at night, she lay on the bed with the support of Xiao Jinyan. She had a little stomachache, but she didn't pay much attention to it at first.

Later, the pain became more and more intense, and she groaned uncomfortably, "Jinyan, my stomach hurts."

"Is it the same as before?" Xiao Jinyan thought it was another false labor. He lowered his head and kissed her, trying to divert her attention in this way.

After a long time, Xiao Jinyan finally let her go, "Does it still hurt?"

Shen Chuwei's cheeks were red and her brows were wrinkled: "Jinyan, it still hurts. This time I'm afraid it's not fake. I'm about to give birth."

When Xiao Jinyan heard that the baby was about to be born, he hurriedly got out of bed and told the servant who was keeping watch: "Notify the doctor to prepare, Shen Liangdi is about to give birth."

Today was Chunxi's night watch. When she heard the order, she trotted to call the old lady for the doctor.

Shen Chuwei groaned in pain.

Xiao Jinyan didn't know what to do, the only thing he could do was hug her.

"Xiaojiu, just bear with it a little longer. The doctor will be here soon."

Shen Chuwei couldn't stand the pain any more. Thinking that the kiss just now seemed to have some effect, "Jinyan, how about you try another kiss?"

"Okay." Xiao Jinyan lowered his head and kissed her without saying a word, trying his best to divert her attention.

At this time, Fengyi Palace

The queen saw that the dog emperor was still not stopping. She wanted to scold him, but she didn't have the energy to do so. She could only let him do whatever he wanted.

After the ceremony was over, the queen closed her eyes and wanted to rest, but she heard Qingying say outside the door: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shen is about to give birth."

The queen suddenly opened her eyes and asked, "Is she going to give birth?"

Her precious grandson!

No matter how tired she was, the queen had no desire to sleep.

The emperor saw that the empress was so tired but still got up to put on her clothes. He sat up, grabbed her wrist and said, "It will be the same if we go to see her tomorrow."

"Your Majesty, please don't be anxious. I, a concubine, cannot wait any longer. I must be the first to see my grandson." The queen withdrew her hand and continued to put on her clothes.

"Besides, this is the first time that Shen Liang Di is giving birth. There is no one familiar with her. She must be scared. I can go over and give her encouragement."

The emperor had no choice but to look at her clumsy hands and feet and said, "I'll help you put it on."

The queen did not refuse. He was the one who took off the clothes, and it was perfect for him to wear them again.

After putting on her clothes, the queen couldn't wait to open the door and walk out, leaving the emperor alone inside.

The emperor watched the empress disappear at the door and felt extremely depressed.

When the queen arrived, the doctor, Venerable Wangpo, had already arrived.

The maids had already started boiling water and were carrying basins of it into the house.

"Your Highness, please get out."

"When a woman is giving birth, a man cannot stay in the delivery room."

Xiao Jinyan ignored the grumbling of the old ladies. He felt so distressed when he saw Xiaojiu crying because of the pain.

Shen Chuwei knew that giving birth was painful, but this was too painful and she couldn't bear it.

“It hurts so much!!”

The maids were extremely anxious when they saw that His Highness refused to leave.

At this time, the queen opened the door and walked in.

The old lady came forward and said anxiously, "Empress, what will happen if His Highness doesn't go out?"

The Queen looked at the bed and saw the Crown Prince holding onto Shen Liang Di. She stepped forward and said, "Crown Prince, go out and wait."

Xiao Jinyan raised his head and looked at the queen, his eyes firm: "Mother, I want to stay."

The Queen's voice deepened: "Prince, how can you say such nonsense? I am here, please go out and wait."

Shen Chuwei knew that there was no such thing as accompanying a woman during childbirth in ancient times. Ancient peoples’ thoughts were feudal, and it was not good for men to see a woman giving birth.

She raised her head with difficulty and looked at Xiao Jinyan, enduring the pain and saying, "Your Highness, please go out first."

Xiao Jinyan wiped the sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief and said, "I am worried about you."

The Queen continued, "I am here with you, what are you worried about? Go out quickly so that the midwives can deliver the baby."

Xiao Jinyan hesitated for a long time before standing up and leaving the room.

The queen came over and sat down on the bed. Looking at Shen Chuwei who was in extreme pain, she soothed her, "Let's try our best to give birth to the babies as quickly as possible, so that we can suffer less."

Shen Chuwei nodded, the pain had made her speechless.

Xiao Jinyan paced back and forth outside the door, watching the hot water being brought in and blood coming out.

Because I can't see what's going on inside, I feel anxious.
