The Imperial Physician Sun and Physician Wang, the heads of the Imperial Medical Academy, nodded in agreement.
After Xia Ju solemnly bowed to the Imperial Physician Sun and Physician Wang, the heads of the Imperial Medical Academy, she went off to attend to her duties.
Xia Ju first jogged into the room where the midwives and birth attendants were staying, and then led them to another room. Xia Ju then instructed them to change into the new clothes that had been prepared and placed in this room.
When Xia Ju led the midwife and the birthing nurse, who had already changed into new clothes, to the delivery room.
Ituma Shushu had just been lying in bed and taking the "painless childbirth fluid" for a short time.
When Ituma Shushu saw Xia Ju enter, she quickly asked, "How is Seventh Prince Xia Ju doing?"
"Your Majesty, please don't worry. The Seventh Prince is still sleeping and hasn't woken up yet. This servant has already instructed Chunhua, Qiuyue, Xiaolinzi, and Xiaoanzi to take good care of him," Xia Ju quickly replied.
Xia Ju continued, "This servant has just arranged for Zhi Qiu to go to the side hall to instruct Chun Hua, Qiu Yue, Xiao Lin Zi, and Xiao An Zi to take good care of the Seventh Prince, and then had Zhi Qiu stand guard outside the delivery room."
Ituma Shushu breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "Yes, with Chunhua, Qiuyue, Xiaolinzi, and Xiaoanzi serving me, I can feel a little more at ease."
Xia Ju continued, "Your Majesty, I have already arranged for Xiao Shunzi to go to Jiuzhou Qingyan to report to the Emperor, and Luo Ye to go to Feng Qingyueming to report to the Empress. I have also asked Xiao Jiangzi to take Xiao Dingzi, Xiao Cuizi, Xiao Yezi, and Xiao Zhuozi to guard Qingyun Yaxuan."
Ituma Shushu nodded in satisfaction and instructed, "Xiaju, Dongmei, Chuyin, and Chuling can guard here. You go outside and wait. If the Seventh Prince wakes up, he will definitely come looking for me, so I need you to keep an eye on things outside."
Xia Ju understood that she had to take good care of the Seventh Prince so that the Empress would not have to worry about him during childbirth. So she nodded solemnly and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, this servant will take good care of the Seventh Prince. Your Majesty, please give birth in peace and do not worry."
Ituma Shushu nodded, pondered for a moment, and continued softly, "With Xiaju looking after the Seventh Prince, I can rest assured. Also, the Empress and the other concubines will be arriving later. Luoye and Zhiqiu are still young, so I need you to go outside and serve them before I can feel at ease."
Xia Ju bowed and replied, "Yes, Your Highness, this servant will wait outside right away."
After Xia Ju left, Ituma Shushu took a deep breath, her brows furrowed.
She thought to herself that the most important thing now is to give birth to the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince as soon as possible, especially since the Seventh Prince is still young and she can't let anyone take advantage of the situation.
Before Xiao Shunzi even arrived at Jiuzhou Qingyan, he encountered Yongzheng rushing over with eunuchs and palace maids.
Xiao Shunzi didn't dare to say anything more and jogged after the group to Qingyun Yaxuan.
However, Xiao Shunzi thought to himself, "As expected, the eunuchs guarding outside Qingyun Yaxuan are not ordinary eunuchs; they must be eunuchs who are skilled in martial arts."
When the leaves fall and the wind is clear and the moon is bright, the gatekeeper is still the same person who gave birth to the seventh prince, Hongzhao, last time.
Upon hearing from Luo Ye that Consort Shu had gone into labor, he dared not delay and immediately let her in, then went to relay the message himself.
Previously, Granny Chun and Eunuch Fu had repeatedly warned that when the palace maids and eunuchs of Qingyun Yaxuan arrived, they should be allowed to pass immediately and should not be obstructed.
"Your Majesty, my young master has just started labor," Luo Ye hurriedly reported as she ran in.
The Empress frowned slightly as usual, then quickly instructed Granny Chun, who was waiting beside her, and said in a loud voice, "Granny Chun, arrange to go to Qingyun Yaxuan immediately."
"Yes, Your Majesty," Chun Mama hurriedly replied and went to make preparations.
Soon the Empress set off from Feng Qingmingyue.
