Chapter 38 Giving Birth



Time flies by like a flash.

This year, due to His Majesty's serious illness, the New Year's Day and festivals were celebrated in an unusually simple manner. The entire palace seemed to be shrouded in a dull and depressing atmosphere, filled with endless sadness.

The Lantern Festival happens to arrive half a month after the Chinese New Year.

Su Jingyao finally reached the moment of delivery.

The queen had carefully arranged the delivery room early on and also specially arranged five experienced midwives to be on standby.

After hearing the report from the palace maid of Xiyan Palace, Imperial Doctor Li also arrived outside the palace early and waited, concentrating fully.

Be fully prepared in case of any emergency.

This was Su Jingyao’s first time giving birth, and she felt extremely unfamiliar and nervous about everything.

But fortunately, she had an experienced Nanny Li who took good care of her, and several experienced midwives who assisted her.

She was carefully carried into the delivery room.

Wave after wave of pain like a tide hit her, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

He clenched his teeth tightly, and every breath seemed extremely difficult.

The pain of giving birth is really unbearable!

What’s more, in this backward ancient times, the slightest carelessness could endanger one’s life.

If Su Jingyao didn't have enough confidence in her body that she took good care of on a daily basis, she probably wouldn't have dared to get pregnant and have a child so easily.

After all, in ancient times, giving birth was an extremely dangerous thing, and one could lose one’s life if one was not careful!

After experiencing frequent contractions, Su Jingyao officially began the difficult delivery process.

Her voice became louder and louder, and her cries of pain echoed in the delivery room, as if she wanted to vent all the pain.

Her hands were tightly grasping the quilt, her fingers had turned pale from the force, and her joints were slightly raised. One could tell from the looks of it that she was in great pain.

The body was shaking constantly because of the pain.

I tried my best for my children.

When Jun Zechen hurried over, he heard her painful moans coming from inside.

The sound seemed like a cry from the depths of the soul, which made people feel heartbroken.

Tonight is the Lantern Festival, and a small banquet is held in the palace.

Because Su Jingyao's belly was too big and she had difficulty moving, she did not participate.

When the palace maid from Xiyan Palace went to report to the prince, the banquet had not yet ended.

But when Jun Zechen heard the news, he was extremely anxious and rushed over immediately.

The Queen presided over the banquet.

"Your servant/servant pays respect to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

The palace maids in Xiyan Palace knelt down and saluted in unison.

"Your humble servant greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Imperial Physician Li also hurried forward and bowed.

Jun Zechen's face was solemn, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes were full of worry and concern.

The woman's painful moans echoed in his ears, making his heart feel as if it was tightly grasped by an invisible hand, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Everyone, get up. What's going on now?"

Jun Zechen's voice was low and hoarse, filled with anxiety and worry.

"Your Highness, rest assured. The concubine is taking good care of the baby, and the fetus is in the right position. The concubine will definitely be able to give birth to the royal heir safely."

Doctor Li quickly replied, with a hint of comfort in his voice.

Jun Zechen frowned and nodded slightly to show that he understood, but the anxiety in his heart did not decrease at all.

In order to get to Xiyan Palace as soon as possible, he walked much faster.

Gradually, the Crown Princess, An Liangdi and others also arrived, except Tang Fengyi, after all, she was in very unwell condition.

Miaoyun, Miaoxia and Nanny Li were accompanying their master in the delivery room, while Miaoyue and Miaoxue were waiting outside.

Seeing so many masters coming, Miaoyue walked forward.

"Your Highness, the Master's delivery may take some time. Your Highness and the other Masters, would you like to sit next door?"

Jun Zechen looked at the women behind him and frowned even more tightly.

"Princess, please take them to sit next door."

"Your Highness, aren't you going?" Ling Yue asked.

"I'll stay here." Jun Zechen's tone was firm and resolute.

Ling Yue felt a bitter feeling in her heart, she lowered her eyes and said, "Your Highness, I will stay here to watch over my sister."

Then, she turned to the other concubines and said, "If you are tired, please go to the warm room next door to rest."

An Liangdi and the others saw that His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess were standing outside the delivery room, so they naturally would not go and take a rest and make themselves bored.

So they all showed determination and expressed their willingness to continue to wait patiently for Concubine Su to give birth.

Time passed by minute by minute, and it was almost an hour.

Su Jingyao was sweating profusely at this time, and her whole body was wet, as if she had just been pulled out of the water.

His pale face turned red due to the exertion, and beads of sweat dotted his forehead.

One of the midwives shouted excitedly: "Concubine, the head is coming out, the head is coming out, please push harder!"

Su Jingyao held Li Ma's hand tightly. Hearing this, she clenched her teeth and exerted all her strength again.

She never wants to have children again!

Finally, a loud cry was heard and the baby came out.

When the midwife saw the child for the first time, her eyes instantly lit up with surprise and joy. "It's the emperor's grandson, the little emperor's grandson!"

Everyone in the delivery room cheered and their faces were filled with joyful smiles.

This is the eldest son of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

Such a joyous event will surely bring rich rewards.

Nanny Li and several midwives carefully wiped the baby clean, then carried the baby out of the delivery room.

The moment Su Jingyao gave birth to the child, it seemed as if all the strength in her body had been drained away. She collapsed powerlessly and fell into a deep sleep.
