Chapter 147: Danger in the Delivery Room
Kikuhei was cleaning up the leftovers at the table. When he heard the news that Nanxiang was about to give birth, he was stunned.
His hands froze in mid-air, and his face was visibly panicked.
However, she immediately stood up and went outside the hall to report.
"I will report it right away!"
Kikuhei's steps were so fast that he almost ran.
She did not make it public, but first found Caiyun and asked Caiyun to summon Aunt Ruolan, while she went to the room where Aunt Lanji was.
Kikuhei had served other concubines before, but this was the first time she had encountered such an important matter as a concubine giving birth, which concerned the crown prince.
However, she had heard of many accidents that happened to concubines during childbirth, such as difficult labor, stillbirth, or heavy bleeding...
At this moment, she was extremely nervous, especially because her mother's belly was bigger than that of an ordinary pregnant woman, making it more prone to accidents.
What's more, there are countless people in the harem who are staring at her queen's belly.
Soon, Kikuhei found Aunt Lanji.
After hearing this, Aunt Lan Ji's expression straightened slightly and she immediately began to give instructions to Ju Ping.
Ask her to quickly prepare the things needed for delivery, which are nothing more than scissors, hot water, and the alcohol that Nanxiang asked her to prepare.
Nanxiang walked slowly into the hall with the support of Caiyun.
The delivery room has been prepared in the hall, and some basic items are also available.
As soon as she lay down in the delivery room, Ruolan, Lan Ji and others came to her side.
"Lan Ji, Ruolan, you two must hold the first line of defense. No one except you two can get close to me."
Nanxiang spoke to the two of them with a serious expression, and the reaction in her stomach became more and more obvious.
"I'll obey!"
"Caiyun, go inform the emperor. Also, have the Royal Guards patrol outside the Wangyue Palace."
As Nanxiang spoke, the pain in her stomach became more and more intense, and her breathing became a little short.
She gritted her teeth, then talked about some arrangements, then lay down on the bed, saving her energy and saying nothing more.
After hearing Nanxiang's arrangement, several people immediately started to act.
……
The Hall of Nourishing Heart.
Liu Sheng walked out of the hall in a hurry with a serious expression and hurried footsteps.
This made Gu Junshen, who was originally quietly reviewing the memorials, somewhat dissatisfied and unhappy.
He glared at Liu Sheng slightly.
"Why is it in such a hurry?"
Gu Junshen asked in a slightly deep voice.
"Your Majesty! The Imperial Concubine is about to give birth."
As soon as Liu Sheng said this, Gu Junshen immediately put down the memorial in his hand and stood up.
"really?"
As he spoke, he couldn't help but leave his seat and started walking outside, with a smile that was hard to conceal on his face.
'He will have two more princes in his harem.'
Thinking of this, he became overjoyed and immediately quickened his pace towards Wangyueju.
"Your Majesty! Walk slower! The roads are slippery in the snow."
Before Liu Sheng could wait for Gu Junshen's reply, he saw him walking out of the hall. He immediately took a thick cloak and followed him.
At this moment, Gu Junshen was immersed in the joy of having a prince and had forgotten the severe cold of the snowy day and the group of eunuchs and guards following behind him.
……
Jingren Palace.
When Queen Chen learned that Nanxiang was about to give birth, she hurriedly stood up from her seat.
Looking at Caizhi who was passing on the message beside him, he confirmed the authenticity of the message.
"My lady! I never lied to you!"
Caizhi squatted down and promised.
"Okay! You will be able to leave the palace soon. As long as you help me finish this."
After hearing this, Caizhi's face immediately turned pale.
There are two voices in my heart, arguing with each other.
"Has the Queen Mother been notified?"
The queen asked Caizhi softly, began to dress herself up, and then hurried towards Wangyueju.
As the mistress of the harem, she had to be present at such important events as the birth of a concubine.
At the same time, in the Empress Dowager's palace, several maids and eunuchs followed the Empress Dowager towards Wangyueju.
Several maids were holding boxes in their hands.
……
Wangyueju.
At this time, Nanxiang had just drunk the oxytocin given to her by Aunt Lan Ji, which is a medicine to speed up delivery.
The imperial physician had delivered the medicine long ago, and Nan Xiang checked it many times but found no problems.
Not long after she drank the labor-inducing medicine, she felt a wave of movement in her abdomen...
"My lady! You will chew on this wood later."
Aunt Ruolan put a piece of wood that was just big enough for the woman to bite into her mouth after Nanxiang nodded.
Nanxiang was feeling mixed and excited at this moment. She was excited because she was finally going to meet her child.
The complicated thing is that the process may be more painful than she imagined, and she may even encounter obstacles at any time.
However, when she looked at Ruolan, Lan Ji, Caiyun and Juping beside her, she felt a lot more at ease.
The preparations made several months ago finally turned into obstacles today.
……
In the Wangyue Residence courtyard, Gu Junshen had already hurried over. Listening to the sounds in the hall, he kept pacing back and forth.
He wanted to go in and take a look, but was stopped outside by the palace maids and eunuchs, who said it was an unclean place and the emperor could not approach it.
Gu Junshen was extremely helpless, but he did know that there was such a statement, and his brows were full of worry.
Soon, Queen Chen also arrived and looked at Gu Junshen with some worry.
"Your Majesty! I am late, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."
However, Gu Junshen ignored him and stared at the door of the inner hall of Wangyueju.
Palace maids kept coming in and out carrying basins.
At this time, Wangyue was in the back kitchen, and Xiaobenzi was hurriedly boiling hot water. Suddenly, a palace maid came with a wooden basin in her trembling hands, wanting to get some hot water.
Xiao Benzi was sharp-eyed and immediately asked the Jinyiwei nearby to take him down.
The palace maid dropped the wooden basin in her panic, causing a panic in the scene.
A palace maid quietly appeared from behind the small notebook and quietly poured a powder into the boiling hot water.
Then he quickly walked away.
She was caught by Xiao Chunzi who was hiding behind and was hit with a stick immediately.
"There's another one here, little book!"
……
The Queen Mother and her group of maids had already arrived outside Wangyueju.
"Such a luxurious palace is really for her to live in."
With a cold snort, he immediately walked towards the yard.
Seeing Gu Junshen standing in the courtyard with an anxious look on his face, she said, "Your Majesty! These are the maids under my command who have a lot of experience in delivering babies. Come and help. In case of any accidents."
The Queen Mother said this, and without waiting for Gu Junshen's consent, she immediately asked the maids to walk into the hall.
At this time, Nanxiang was already at the point of giving birth, and the pain of giving birth made her bite the wooden stick tightly.
The stick soon left a deep bite mark, and there was some blood in her mouth.
"My queen, please push harder! The prince is about to come out!"
Lan Ji called softly, and calmly took the tools in her hand to disinfect Nan Xiang and wipe the blood.
At this moment, several maids suddenly rushed in, causing Ruolan's face to darken and turn pale.
"The Imperial Concubine is giving birth. Who allowed you in? Are there any rules?"
Ruolan's expression suddenly changed. She stopped in front of the few people and shouted angrily. Her aura was so strong that they were stunned for a while.
