Chapter 214 Midnight Production
Chapter 214 Midnight Production
After the Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner, the concubines in the harem all focused their attention on Li Shiwen's belly.
Since the emperor ascended the throne, although some concubines in the harem were pregnant, they were unable to give birth for various reasons.
Now, whether Li Shiwen's child can be born first has become a matter of waiting and watching for all the concubines in the harem.
If the baby is born safely, Li Shiwen will definitely be promoted, above noble concubine to concubine.
When she becomes a concubine, she will be the mistress of a palace, and her status as a mother will be enhanced by her son.
This is the first son born to a concubine in the harem after the emperor ascended the throne.
If she is educated properly, it will be just around the corner for Li Shiwen to be crowned as a princess in the future.
Of course, the harem was not idle either. For several days in a row, Xie Yu had been favoring Zheng Jin since the Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner.
Yesterday, Xie Yu issued an imperial decree and Zheng Jin was canonized as Ronghua.
She became the second highest ranking among the new concubines entering the palace, surpassing Qin Shushu who had been favored a few days ago, and became the new favorite in the harem.
However, compared with the favored Qin Shushu, she is much more low-key and not ostentatious.
Li Shiwen also made preparations for delivery early, and Wu Renlang came to check her pulse every day to ensure that everything was safe.
All the eyes of the harem were on her, so she didn't dare to be careless.
Palace
Lin Junxue hasn't received any letter from Xie Yu for a week since the Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner.
Just as she guessed, who is this scumbag emperor interested in?
As expected, Zhang Yuyan's letter yesterday said that Xie Yu had summoned Zheng Jin to sleep with him for several days in a row, and also asked her to serve him with writing materials in front of the emperor.
This shows that Zheng Jin is indeed favored by Xie Yu, the dog emperor.
However, Xie Yu is a man without sincerity. He only pampers everyone but does not love them.
Lin Junxue found that Zheng Jin, who had a huge contrast, was quite interesting.
After being frightened sick by Sun Manrou's dog, his personality changed drastically, as if he had become a different person.
On the day of the audition, she was not the same as Yuyan wrote in the letter. It was like she had become a completely different person.
Thinking of this, Lin Junxue paused slightly and became a different person, unless?
Thinking of a possibility, a hint of interest flashed in Lin Junxue's eyes.
In fact, nothing is impossible. If she can travel through time, others may be able to do so too.
However, she still had to test it herself to find out what Zheng Jin had become.
If I really traveled through time, the harem would become more and more lively.
Qiao Xin hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, it seems that it is time to return to the palace. I am afraid that if we delay any longer, this Jin Ronghua is also someone who should not be underestimated. I am afraid that she will win the heart of the emperor."
Lin Junxue picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly, her eyes indifferent and careless.
"Well, send a message, so that my sister-in-law can start preparing during this period of time. It is time for me to return to the palace."
Qiao Xin nodded and said, "My lady, I understand."
Danzhen and Guyu looked at each other, somewhat excited.
The Empress seemed to have done nothing in the palace, but in fact she had started planning since the day she left the palace, and the day for her to return to the palace was finally approaching.
five days later
midnight
Li Shiwen began to feel her stomach sinking, accompanied by contractions.
She knew that she was about to give birth, so she quickly called the nanny and the midwife who had been prepared.
Although it was her first time giving birth, she was very nervous.
But she remembered what the Queen had said. The closer it got to this point, the less she should panic, otherwise someone would take advantage of her.
Li Shiwen immediately calmed down, and while he was still conscious, he ordered the palace servants in an orderly manner to invite the emperor, Concubine Mi, and Zhaoyi Yan to come over first.
Then, she asked the midwife to get ready immediately and told the nanny not to leave the delivery room for a moment and to stay by her side from beginning to end. She also asked someone to go to the Imperial Hospital to summon Wu Renlang.
After Li Shiwen gave instructions, she entered the room specially prepared for production.
The process from onset to delivery was not so quick. The Queen Mother told her not to scream during childbirth as it would consume her energy, so she must stay awake.
Li Shiwen kept these words in mind. She only felt her lower abdomen getting heavier and heavier, and the pain was so severe that sweat broke out on her forehead.
The news of Li Shiwen's outburst soon spread throughout the harem.
Xie Yu had originally summoned Qin Shushu to sleep with him today, and when the palace maid came to invite him, he brought Qin Shushu with him directly.
Chen Mi and Zhang Yuyan met halfway and came together.
The remaining concubines also came when they heard the news.
Everyone was waiting outside, those with higher status sat down while those with lower status could only stand.
Zhang Yuyan originally had a seat, but she was worried and couldn't sit still, so she stood up and looked inside.
Among all the concubines in the harem, only Chen Xier had not arrived, but no one cared about it.
Everyone listened to the noise inside. Xie Yu sat at the top with a frown on his face.
"Aren't women supposed to scream when giving birth? Why? Lan Guiji didn't make any noise. Gao Cheng, send someone to check what's going on?"
Chen Mi comforted her, "Your Majesty, Concubine Lan just had an attack, it's not time yet, don't worry, there are midwives, the imperial physician, and the nanny, Concubine Lan and the baby in her belly will be fine."
The other concubines also comforted Xie Yu one by one.
Zhang Yuyan just felt bored when she heard it.
It was obviously Lan Guiji who gave birth to the child, and it was also Lan Guiji who suffered and was in danger.
They are here to comfort the emperor? Is he giving birth to a child?
Zhang Yuyan said, "Your Majesty, the Queen said that when a woman is giving birth, it is best not to scream or shout so as to conserve her energy. That is why Sister Lan tried not to scream and just pushed on silently."
When Xie Yu heard the word "Queen", he was stunned for a moment.
During this period, Zheng Jin was favored more, and he forgot to send the letter to the palace.
After Zhang Yuyan finished explaining, the hall fell silent.
I don't know what Xie Yu thought of? After he fell silent.
However, Xie Yu's expression inexplicably looked a little better than before.
The other concubines also stood aside awkwardly, not daring to speak.
Beside her, Sun Manrou was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
This Concubine Yan, why is she mentioning the Queen for no reason?
The Emperor probably hasn't thought about the Queen for a long time these days, and she is determined to make trouble for him.
Zheng Jin suddenly said, "The Queen knows so much. We concubines don't know these things. So that's how it is."
Zhang Yuyan listened to Zheng Jin's words and turned to look at her. Zheng Jin showed an innocent smile, which was very harmless.
But Zhang Yuyan, a systematic person, knows best how others like her.
Zheng Jin not only had no good feelings towards her, but also had deep malice towards her.
During the talent show, she didn't realize that Zheng Jin's acting skills were pretty good.
However, this is a tactic of showing weakness. She won’t eat anything while others do.
Zhang Yuyan looked at Zheng Jin and said, "It's normal for Jin Ronghua not to understand. The Queen said that learning never ends. If you don't understand, just study hard."
As soon as this word comes out
Zheng Jin's face looked a little unnatural, but his expression changed quickly, and he looked weak.
"Sister Yan Zhaoyi is right. I should study hard."
Seeing Zheng Jin's attitude, if someone didn't know her, they would think someone bullied her.
Xie Yu's mind was completely on Li Shiwen who was giving birth inside, so Zheng Jin's performance today was a waste.
Chen Mi looked at this scene and sighed slightly.
Jin Ronghua's attitude is very similar to Chen Xier's back then.
