Chapter 368 Urgent Matter
Shangguan Jin felt that it was enough for her to know about this.
She is an open-minded mother and shouldn't be too controlling of her children.
Only in this way will the children talk to her when they have something to say...
But since Shen Qingyue hasn't told me about this yet, it must be because it's not the right time yet!
For Lian Qianli...
Shangguan Jin did not feel that they were mismatched in terms of social status as others perceived them to be.
At least Lian Qianli was still half of Chun Buwan's employer, and he had already been formally recognized by Emperor Xiao Wu, so he wasn't completely a nobody!
Furthermore, Lian Qianli is now the young leader of the Ruyi Alliance!
In any case, safety is definitely guaranteed.
Furthermore, the largest brothel in Jiangnan, Wanhua Tower, is also related to Lian Qianli...
Thinking about it this way, Shangguan Jin realized that Lian Qianli must be the kind of reclusive tycoon that people in later generations talked about...
Dongmai, seeing that her young mistress had no objections.
After thinking about it, I also think that Lian Qianli is quite good.
At least for now, this young master Lian seems to have no bad habits, no concubines, and no history of drinking, gambling, or womanizing...
His only hobby is writing short stories.
If our young lady really takes a liking to Young Master Lian, then that would be a good choice.
Even a young master like him is better than those young masters who secretly have entanglements with their maids!
Dongmai helped Shangguan Jin out of Shen Qingyue's room.
Shangguan Jin casually picked up a book.
Shangguan Jin was about to tell Dongmai that if he was free tomorrow afternoon, he should go to Chunbuwan for tea!
It seems like she hasn't been to Chunbuwan for tea for almost a month...
"Winter wheat, tomorrow afternoon..."
"Madam! Madam! Something's happened!" Lin's mother suddenly rushed over.
Seeing that Lin's mother seemed a little anxious, Shangguan Jin quickly asked.
"What happened?"
Lin's mother leaned close to Shangguan Jin's ear and whispered a few words.
"People from the Prince of Qin's residence have arrived."
The former Qin princess suffered a difficult childbirth...
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Jin began giving instructions as she walked towards the front yard.
"Take my invitation to the imperial physicians and tell the head of the Imperial Medical Academy to bring two more physicians who specialize in childbirth and newborns."
In addition, they also invited the famous midwives from the capital.
Also, go to the storeroom and get an old ginseng root, along with some other tonics; I'll take them with me later.
Dongmai and Lin's mother immediately made the arrangements.
Shangguan Jin sighed as she walked.
Wasn't it supposed to start after the Dragon Boat Festival? Why has it started now?
And it was a difficult birth...
Emperor Xiao Wu secretly released the Prince of Qin and the Pingnan Army soldiers who had been imprisoned.
Less than three months later, the King of Qin secretly sent a message to Emperor Xiao Wu.
They had visited all the small islands along the coast of Chongqing.
Not only did they destroy the so-called lair of the Sea Dragon Cult, but they also found a lot of explosives and gold and silver.
Finally, the King of Qin consulted Emperor Xiao Wu about whether they should continue expanding overseas...
Emperor Xiao Wu personally wrote a reply.
"You can fight your way to wherever you want! You can occupy wherever you want!"
Whatever you conquer outside will become your fiefdom!
The King of Qin was delighted to hear this.
He was overjoyed to be fighting those small, foreign countries.
Thus, the King of Qin's army continued to expand, and the number of warships increased from one to three.
He has become the biggest pirate at sea...
However, he was a pirate with a conscience.
When they come ashore for supplies, they always come to Dayu. They give the people the proper amount of silver, and they never rob the people of Dayu...
Over the past six months, he has exchanged letters with Emperor Xiaowu several times.
To put his mind at ease, Emperor Xiao Wu also had Princess Qin write to him and send him a lot of gifts.
Every time the King of Qin wrote to Emperor Xiao Wu, he would request that the King of Qin's wife and his son be well taken care of.
Emperor Xiao Wu secretly released the Prince of Qin.
Even though the ministers were fully aware of the situation, he still had to put on a show of politeness.
Therefore, the task of taking care of the Princess Consort and the Crown Prince could not be openly entrusted to the Empress.
The only suitable candidate is Shangguan Jin.
Shangguan Jin didn't think it was a big deal, so she readily agreed.
Who knew... she had been saying her pregnancy was going very well, but today she had a difficult labor...
After packing everything, Shangguan Jin quickly got into the carriage and headed back to the former Qin Prince's residence.
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Shangguan Jin arrived at the Prince of Qin's residence.
Like Emperor Xiao Wu, she did not enter the palace through the main gate, but through the side gate.
This was the first time Shangguan Jin had come to the Prince of Qin's residence after the Prince of Qin was demoted.
Looking at the few scattered people in the vast palace, Shangguan Jin sighed.
How bustling and prestigious the Prince of Qin's mansion used to be...
Now......
Hurriedly walking to the backyard, Shangguan Jin could already faintly hear the suppressed cries of pain from Princess Qin.
"What's going on? Why did it suddenly start ahead of schedule?" Shangguan Jin asked.
"After lunch, the princess was taking a nap, but suddenly it seemed like she had a nightmare."
Then I started bleeding.
The midwife we had hired early on said the baby was breech and it might be difficult for the baby to come out.
The princess had been in pain for a long time and couldn't give birth.
"The princess couldn't bear it any longer, so she sent someone to fetch you," a maid said hurriedly.
They were all transferred here last year to serve this former princess.
Although everyone said that the Qin King's family had been demoted to commoners, they found out when they arrived.
It seems that rewards from the palace are constantly being sent here.
They had also been instructed by the steward to serve the former princess well; anyone who dared to neglect the princess and the crown prince would be executed...
But today the princess is having a difficult childbirth...
If things don't go well, will they also be buried with us...?
Seeing the maid trembling like a leaf, Shangguan Jin didn't want to ask any more questions.
"Dongmai, go wait at the side gate. As soon as the imperial physicians and midwives arrive, immediately bring them to the princess's courtyard."
After saying that, she walked towards the room where the Princess Qin gave birth.
At the entrance to the courtyard, five-year-old Prince Qin, Xiao Yuzhi, squatted by the door with tears streaming down his face.
"You are... Zhi'er?" Shangguan Jin immediately remembered who the child was.
Upon hearing someone call his name, Xiao Yuzhi quickly wiped away the tears on his face.
"I am Xiao Yuzhi, and who are you, Madam?"
Shangguan Jin thought for a moment, wondering what this kid should call her...
After thinking for a long time, I still couldn't figure out what to call myself.
The only certainty is that I am two generations older than this child...
“Call me Madam Shen!” Shangguan Jin said.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuzhi hurriedly walked over and tugged at Shangguan Jin's sleeve.
"Madam Shen, please save my mother! She... Waaah... She's bleeding so much!"
As he spoke, tears welled up in Xiao Yuzhi's eyes again.
