Chapter 493 Too Fast
When the palace maids saw Wei Qingyan holding her belly, they reacted and hurriedly helped her up and called for help.
Those who could take care of Wei Qingyan were all carefully selected by Lan Shu. Although everyone was anxious and worried, they did not panic.
Only Panpan's wet nurse was so frightened that she held her in her arms and hid in the corner beside the couch, her legs trembling.
She saw that the little princess was well-behaved and the princess allowed her to stay by her side, so she did not take the little princess away.
Behind her, the little princess carried her on her back and lay in front of the princess. She thought the little princess was still pondering the embroidery on the princess's clothes.
It was not until she heard the princess ask what the little princess had given her to eat, and saw that the princess's face looked strange, that she realized something serious had happened.
She didn't know what was hanging around the princess' neck, or whether she could eat it.
But right now, there is something wrong with the princess's abdomen. If anything happens to her, she will not be able to take good care of the little princess, and her head will not be saved either.
The wet nurse kept her eyes on Wei Qingyan, praying in her heart that nothing would happen to the princess.
She didn't know whether God heard her prayers or the princess was blessed with great fortune, but before even the midwife next door could rush over, she heard the princess groan in pain, followed by the loud cry of the baby.
Everything happened so fast!
It happened so fast that even the palace maids who were taking care of Wei Qingyan didn't react, and the child was born like that.
Seeing the birth go so smoothly, the wet nurse thought her head would be saved, and she cried with joy and screamed, "Quick, take the baby and cut the umbilical cord."
She saw clearly that the palace maids had only taken off the princess's outer skirt and had not even had time to take off her pants, and the young master came out like this. If they didn't hurry up, she would be suffocated.
Fortunately, when the princess gets pregnant, her pants are very loose.
The first person to react was the old nanny beside Wei Qingyan. She covered the quilt with the baby and told the palace maids to set it up. She then leaned in to take off Wei Qingyan's clothes.
At this time, the three midwives from next door also rushed over.
Some held the baby, some cut the umbilical cord, and some used techniques to help Wei Qingyan push his abdomen so that the placenta could come out sooner.
The emperor, whose shoulders and neck were aching from his busy schedule, was strolling in the imperial garden with Lan Shu and the little prince when he heard the eunuch rushing over, "The princess... is about to give birth."
Before she finished speaking, Lan Shu had already stuffed the little prince into the wet nurse's arms and rushed out on tiptoe.
The emperor was also anxious. He instructed the wet nurse and the palace maids to take good care of the little prince, and hurriedly ran after Lan Shu.
When Lan Shu rushed to the side hall like a whirlwind, Wei Qingyan had just been cleaned and put on his inner clothes again, and was hugging Panpan and crying.
"What's wrong? Are you scared..."
Before she could finish her words, Lan Shu saw that her bulging belly had flattened, and her mind went blank.
Fortunately, the old nanny reported in time, "Your Highness, the prince has given birth, and the young master is in the inner room."
"Give birth?"
So fast?
Why is Qingyan crying? She's so sad.
She sat down beside Wei Qingyan's bed and asked, "Are you in pain?"
That's why I cried, but why did I cry while hugging Panpan?
And Qingyan gave birth, so why was Panpan left here?
Lan Shu was full of doubts and confusion.
The old nanny saw her confusion, but she didn't know why the Crown Princess would cry while holding the little princess after giving birth successfully, and she couldn't help her solve the problem.
The wet nurse's heart, which had just calmed down, rose to her throat again. It was said that if a child was present when a woman was giving birth, the blood and energy during the birth would rush to the child's head, and the child would become stupid.
Therefore, there has never been a precedent in the royal family for a woman to give birth with the child present. Although the princess's delivery was too smooth, there was not much blood in the room.
But this was a violation of the royal taboo. She really wanted to slap herself and explained in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, please spare me. This happened suddenly. I was worried about the princess and didn't react at the time."
When she came to her senses and was about to leave with the little princess in her arms, the princess called her back.
The others were only paying attention to Wei Qingyan and neglected the little princess, so they all knelt down.
Wei Qingyan stopped crying, let go of Panpan and explained, "Mother, don't blame them. I was the one who kept Panpan."
Lan Shu didn't believe that the smell of blood could make the child stupid, so she glanced at her still clever little girl and signaled the wet nurse to take the child out.
Wiping Wei Qingyan's tears, he said, "Don't cry. Tell mother if you have anything to say. Crying right after giving birth is not good for your eyes."
Wei Qingyan waved away the palace servants again, and then whispered to Lan Shu about how he had eaten the fat monk's relics.
The fat monk was like a father to Lan Shu. After listening to Wei Qingyan's explanation, she understood why she was crying.
He comforted her, "The fat monk asked you to take his relics before, but now, due to some strange circumstances...
Maybe this is God's will. Don't be upset. This is not your fault. I'll help you beat Panpan later. The little thing has been spoiled by your father and has become lawless."
After hearing this, Wei Qingyan's tears fell even more violently. Panpan is the fat monk.
The fat monk either couldn't bear to see her suffer the pain of childbirth, or was worried that she wouldn't be able to handle the spirits, so he fed her the relic in this way.
Tears welled up again.
Even after the fat monk was reincarnated as a human, he still protected her.
As Lan Shu was trying to persuade the monk, she remembered the good things about the fat monk and started crying too.
When the emperor came running in breathlessly, he saw no cries of pain like Lan Shu's during childbirth, and the palace maids were all standing outside. "What's going on?"
As I approached, I could hear the woman crying, and my legs subconsciously weakened again. "How is the princess?"
When he heard the palace maids say that the princess had given birth and both mother and child were safe, the strength in his legs returned, and he stepped inside.
"Are you in pain?" he asked with concern. "Father asked the imperial physician to prescribe some medicine for you."
Wei Qingyan shook his head and gradually calmed down. "My daughter is fine, she's not in much pain."
It really didn't hurt much. I just felt a sense of falling in my abdomen, as if there was a force pushing the baby down. Then there was a wet feeling, and the baby came out.
Thinking that this was her master's love for her, she said to Lan Shu, "Mother, please don't hit her, she is still young."
The emperor was also confused after hearing this.
How does it have anything to do with him?
He rushed all the way here and had no time to ask anything. When he was about to ask, he saw the midwife coming out holding the cleaned baby. His wife and daughter were looking at the child, so he didn't rush to ask.
"The little guy looks like his father." Lan Shu said.
The birth of his daughter went smoothly, and he was promoted to a grandfather. The emperor was very happy and took a closer look at his grandson, but he had a different opinion.
"I think he looks like Qingyan. Children don't have fixed personalities, so they'll change as they grow. Who knows, he might look more like Qingyan in a few days."
Wei Qingyan felt that no matter how much he changed, he would still look more like Shi Yu, especially his eyes. She couldn't help but raise her hand and poke the child's face.
So soft, so rare, she is a mother now, this is her and Shi Yu’s child.
After a while, Xing'er, who had received the letter, came over with a smile.
The emperor was worthy of being the emperor. Thinking of the rumors that were unfavorable to Wei Qingyan some time ago, he immediately ordered people to spread the news that the princess was protected by the gods and gave birth to a child smoothly in a few breaths.
The news quickly spread throughout the capital, and as it spread, it became known that when the little prince was born, the sky was filled with rosy clouds and colorful music, and some even said that a dragon was seen tumbling in the clouds.
Then Wei Shiran and others also entered the palace.
The emperor finally learned from Lan Shu why Wei Qingyan was crying. He held little Panpan on his lap and asked, "Panpan, are you worried about your sister?"
He felt that the relic would become a hidden danger sooner or later, so it would be better to let Qingyan eat it. Since Master Yilian insisted that Qingyan take it, it would probably be good for Qingyan.
Let's not talk about anything else, just talk about childbirth. In his half-life, he has never seen a woman give birth as quickly and smoothly as his Qingyan, and she suffered less pain. For this reason alone, he thinks Panpan did a good job.
However, he also knew that taking the relics of his relatives was like eating their flesh and bones, which would make him feel uncomfortable, so he did not dare to show it in front of his wife and daughter.
He thought of telling Shi Yu about this matter, as Shi Yu would certainly agree with him. However, just as he had finished writing the letter and had not yet sent it out, he heard the report from the imperial guards.
A hooded man came to the palace gate and said he was an old friend of Your Majesty and wanted to see Your Majesty.
