It was already dark, but no one thought about eating.
Yu Zheng was slowly helped into the delivery room and examined again.
"It's already dilated to the 1/3 inch mark. Very good. At this rate, it won't be long before the baby is born." Mrs. Xie reported the result.
"Okay, I'm going to eat dinner and save my energy."
As soon as I heard her say she wanted to eat.
The kitchen immediately prepared a large bowl of noodles, which was also what Yu Yuzheng requested.
Noodles have more energy than rice. This is the best food to eat.
This is what I heard from some elders in my previous life.
It is much better than eating any chocolate. Moreover, the noodles taste good and are easy to eat. They go down in one gulp.
Everyone was very happy to see that Yu Yuzheng could still finish a bowl of noodles, and they ate dinner with her.
"My two dears, you are both pregnant, why don't you go and take a rest? If I tell you to go to sleep, you will definitely not agree. So go and take a nap before I give birth, and come back when I am about to give birth. Encourage me." Yu Yuzheng even took care of the two elderly pregnant women.
"Yes, yes, yes. Both princesses should go and rest. I'll be here."
Only now did Zhao Yuejiao feel that she was the most responsible person here.
He is also the person who should be in charge.
"Okay, dear, I'll leave it to you." The princess also knew that if they didn't go to rest, her daughter-in-law would definitely be uneasy. She had to obediently rest for a while.
"Ziqi, you have to take good care of Zheng'er."
"Ziqi, we will just rest for half an hour. You must wake us up then." Princess Jing did not forget to remind him.
Yu Zheng could no longer walk; her legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead.
She had to stop, but she didn't sit down. She stood up, letting her belly push down her cervix under the force of gravity.
Two midwives were also waiting on the side.
Time slowly moved to the hour of Hai (nine o'clock in the evening), and the cervix finally opened to seven fingers.
During this period, Yu Zheng took advantage of the intervals between the pains to close her eyes and rest.
There was no way she could sleep tonight, so she could only use this little time to keep her energy at its best.
She knows what's best for her.
Shangguan Ziqi could only look at his wife worriedly and rub her waist whenever she felt pain.
"Madam, I'm really at a loss. I don't know how to help you." Shangguan Ziqi said this several times.
After hearing this, Yu Zheng didn't want to answer him.
"You take care of the child from now on and I'll sleep." Yu Yuzheng glared at him unhappily.
"Okay." Shangguan Ziqi agreed without hesitation.
This caused Yu Zheng to roll her eyes.
With so many servants, can they really find him?
Ghost faith.
At this time, the two princesses had rested enough and came together again.
They couldn't sleep at all, so they could only close their eyes for a while, just to avoid worrying Yu Zheng and adding psychological burden to her.
"How is it now?" The princess saw that her daughter-in-law had not yet entered the delivery room and was still standing outside with her hands on the wall.
"Princess, it's already opened to seven fingers, and we still need two more fingers to go in."
This is her first pregnancy, so it is normal for her cervix to dilate slowly. It has been three and a half hours since she felt it.
Being able to open to seven fingers is considered fast.
It will be even faster later on.
䀴Just then, a breeze came in hurriedly.
"Master, something is happening." Qingfeng said with a serious face.
Shangguan Ziqi knew something was wrong from his expression, but he couldn't say it here in front of everyone.
Push the wheelchair out.
Come to the study.
"Master, something bad has happened. A group of people are coming quickly towards our village. I think they are coming for us."
When Shangguan Ziqi heard this, he knew that the matter was urgent.
"About how many people?" Shangguan Ziqi's face turned cold.
You really know how to pick the right time.
Intentional or unintentional?
“I don’t know, I just came back to report from the outside.
"Call all the guards to the courtyard, including those from Prince Jing's Mansion, quickly."
Qingfeng went out immediately.
Shangguan Ziqi punched the table, causing the fine mahogany furniture to dent.
Who arranged this?
Could it be another spy from Canglan Kingdom?
But now is not the time to think about that.
He must protect his wife, Concubine Lu, and Princess Jing.
Shangguan Ziqi changed into black clothes and put on a mask in the study.
Let Xiaoqin call Concubine Lu out.
When the princess came out, she saw a masked man in black standing in the yard with a sword in his hand, which looked a little strange.
Shangguan Ziqi took a few steps towards her.
"Concubine Li, you and Aunt Lin should both take a pill to preserve the pregnancy. Tonight is going to be an uneasy night, so be on the safe side." Shangguan Ziqi whispered.
The princess immediately recognized that it was her son, and her eyes widened in shock.
"Fei Fei, stay strong. Don't tell Madam. Just say I am protecting her outside the courtyard."
"Okay." The princess suddenly stood up for Ji Zegang.
Her face was extremely determined, but once she entered the delivery room, her eyes turned loving.
Pull Lin Shiyun aside.
"Shiyun, we have to stay up all night to watch Zheng'er give birth tonight, so let's take a pill to protect the pregnancy. This pill is made from the prescription Zheng'er gave us, and it's quite effective."
Princess Jing looked at the princess strangely, wondering why she hadn't been asked to eat before. She suddenly thought of this question.
She is not a stupid person who knows nothing. She is even more resilient than the princess.
He looked inquiringly.
But the princess said nothing. She took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms and poured out a pill for her.
He poured out another pill and ate it himself first.
䀴At this time, Princess Jing's personal nanny, Hong, came in.
After whispering a few words in Princess Jing's ear, Princess Jing's body stiffened and her eyes narrowed.
Then she consciously swallowed the pregnancy-preserving pill.
"Let them all obey Ziqi's command." Princess Jing also whispered.
Nanny Hong went out.
At this time, Yu Zheng's pain was already very intense.
"Madam, we can go into the delivery room now. It should be almost time." Mrs. Xie estimated the time and came to help Yu Zheng.
"Okay." She also felt that it was about right.
The two relatives followed in.
"Princess Li, Concubine Yi, what are you doing? Aren't you not allowed to come in? You just need to wait outside." Yu Yuzheng didn't want the two concubines to accompany her the whole time, as they would not be able to bear it.
"Zheng'er, listen to Concubine Li. Just take care of yourself and don't worry about us. With us watching over you, nothing will go wrong." The princess pretended to hint at something.
"Don't worry, if anything happens, we will know it first. The court doctor of Prince Jing's Mansion is waiting outside the courtyard and will come in to deal with it as soon as we are called." Princess Jing also advised.
As a result, she gave birth to a child, with her three relatives watching.
䀴Just as they entered the delivery room, sounds of fighting were heard outside the manor.
Shangguan Ziqi stood on the highest roof and looked not far away.
This was a silent assassination, unlike the battlefield where people killed and shouted at the same time, this time they just attacked without making any sound, only a little groaning from the pain when being stabbed by the sword.
The sound of swords colliding continued to be heard.
Shangguan Ziqi arranged the guards of Prince Jing's Mansion on the periphery.
The guards of Prince Jing's Mansion are not very good at martial arts, but they can test their abilities.
But I didn't expect that every move those people made was a killing move, and it was obvious that they were specially trained killers.
It didn't take long before they broke through that line of defense and forced Zhuangzi to come out.
There are a total of ten secret guards in Prince Rong's Mansion, eleven of them, and ten secret guards in Prince Jing's Mansion.
䀴 initially estimated that the other side had about forty people.
I didn’t expect so many people to be mobilized. Are they going to destroy the entire village?
Shangguan Ziqi was as cold as ice at this moment.
"Meet the enemy."
