As for why he had to go to the cold palace, it was naturally to avoid the upcoming unknown danger.
The Queen's childbirth is a big event, and the entire palace will attach great importance to it, but there are always omissions. What if someone takes advantage of it?
Concubine Gongjing refused to admit that she was a coward. She just felt that she had to be careful with her words and actions from now on and not give others the opportunity to frame her.
After so many years in the palace, if she was really framed, she would not be able to face her ancestors even if she died.
She decided that in order to avoid giving others the opportunity to frame her, every time she went to Kunning Palace, she would have to let Tana and the imperial physician examine her before going in to pay her respects, otherwise she would feel guilty.
"Your Highness, you are now eight months pregnant. You can no longer move around as freely as before. From today on, you must stay in Kunning Palace.
It is said that those who have multiple babies are more likely to give birth prematurely. I am worried that you might give birth prematurely, so I say this. If you go into labor outside, it will scare you, and of course, it will scare me too."
"It's okay. I know what's going on. These kids won't be born for at least another month. I'm safe now."
However, Tana didn't believe it. She would not allow any possible accident to happen.
The Empress's pregnancy went smoothly, but that didn't mean the delivery would be smooth, so for the safety of the Empress and her child, she had to be on high alert.
Seeing that she couldn't convince her, Tana directly sent someone to invite Shunzhi.
"I can never convince you. When the Emperor arrives, please explain to him, Your Majesty, you are not pregnant with only one child like others. I am really worried about you.
If the Emperor agrees to allow you to move freely for this month, then I will obey the Emperor's orders. As long as it does not harm you and the unborn child, you can go wherever you want."
Sometimes Mu Sili wondered whether she was the queen or Tana was the queen, because sometimes Tana was more serious and solemn than Empress Xiaozhuang.
She still remembered that she always told her that she was timid. Now it seems that her timidity depends on the situation.
"Even if the emperor comes, I will still say this. Tana, you are getting bolder and bolder. You actually don't believe what I say."
"That's not the case. I'm just afraid. Your Majesty, please sit down first. The Emperor should be here soon."
The Kunning Palace was located behind the Qianqing Palace, not far away, so Shunzhi rushed there as soon as he received the news.
"I pay my respects to the Emperor."
"This servant and I pay our respects to the Emperor."
"Hurry up and get up! Why did I hear you were going to run away?"
"That's not right. I was just going out for a walk. Doctor Zhen said that more movement is good for childbirth. And I have a feeling that I won't give birth this month."
Shunzhi was speechless. "Do you feel something?" "What's the point of staring at me?" "Isn't it all right if I tell you to?"
What if something suddenly happened outside? There were so many people around, and I was afraid someone would attack from behind, so it was better to stay in Kunning Palace.
If you really can't make it, go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity. You can also take a walk on the corridor between the Palace of Heavenly Purity and the Palace of Earthly Tranquility.
This way, it can operate right under your nose and you can watch it with peace of mind.
"From today on, if you are bored, you can go to the Qianqing Palace to accompany me. Don't worry, I will accompany you to relax every day.
Although the imperial physician told you to walk more, he didn't let you walk around in the Imperial Garden. You are pregnant with multiple babies, unlike other people who are only pregnant with one, so you must take it seriously.
I am counting on you to give me a legitimate son to inherit my position. You don’t know that after being the emperor for so many years, I will also be tired.
If I hadn't been so worried about this and that before, I wouldn't know where to find the people's feelings now."
When Mu Sili heard this, she immediately made a clicking sound. It sounded like it was true, and she almost believed it.
She would rather believe that Dorgon was still alive than believe that Shunzhi would leave the palace to understand the people's sentiments. After all, in her eyes, Shunzhi was still a bit lazy.
But it's quite annoying that they come to persuade me not to go out one after another. Never mind, they won't believe it even if I tell the truth.
Since they were all eager for her to be active in Kunning Palace or Qianqing Palace, she would just oblige them. After all, the birth would not take place for another month, so she was not worried at all.
After learning that she had changed her mind, Shunzhi and Tana both breathed a sigh of relief. This job was really not easy.
A month later, Mu Sili launched an attack in the Qianqing Palace. At that moment, Shunzhi was frightened to the point of breaking out in cold sweats.
He knew that the child could be born at any time. Look how foresighted he was. If he had agreed to let her go out before, who knows what the situation would be like now.
"Don't just stand there. Hurry and send the Queen back to Kunning Palace to give birth. Wu Liangfu, you and Tana will carefully inspect Kunning Palace and make sure it is clean."
"yes."
A quarter of an hour later, Mu Sili officially entered the delivery room to wait for delivery.
"How's Li'er?"
"Why is the Empress Dowager here? The Empress is fine. She just went in. From what I see, she doesn't look like someone who is about to give birth. She is very energetic.
If I hadn't seen her water break just now, I doubt she could have gone out for another run. You don't know, when I learned she was going to give birth, I almost lost my mind."
Xiaozhuang looked at Shunzhi with some suspicion. Is he really deeply in love with Mu Sili?
As expected, he is Huang Taiji's offspring, all of them are infatuated. Fortunately, the target is her, otherwise she would take action.
"Don't worry, with me and you protecting her, Li'er will definitely give birth safely. Su Ma, you go in and watch over her. I don't want anything to happen to Li'er and the baby."
"yes."
In the delivery room, Mu Sili was leisurely preparing for giving birth. When she learned that Su Malagu was coming in, her expression immediately changed.
"My stomach hurts so much. Why hasn't this child come out yet? It hurts so much."
"Don't worry, my lady. The cervix is only three fingers dilated. Please wait a little longer. You can't use it now. If you lose the air, your delivery will be very difficult."
The midwife was also anxious. She had been in for a long time but didn't hear her cry out in pain. She thought it was not the right time yet. She didn't expect her to suddenly cry out in pain, which scared her.
But it's already dilated to three fingers, and it will soon be dilated to ten fingers, so we have to make arrangements.
"Everything is ready. The Queen is about to give birth. Check the tools again. There must be no mistakes."
"yes."
Su Malagu was very satisfied with her behavior. She would tell Xiaozhuang about it after she went out, saying that such a person could be used.
Another quarter of an hour later, Mousse Pear began to give birth.
With three loud cries, triplets were born.
The midwife was almost grinning from ear to ear. All three were little boys, what a great joy.
When Su Malagu saw her expression, she knew that all the children she had given birth to were princes. The queen was indeed very blessed.
"This servant congratulates the Queen, all three of you are princes."
