Seeing that she had regained her willpower, the Queen Mother patted the back of her hand happily and said gently, "Women have to go through this. My aunt knows that it is difficult for you. I promise you that as long as you give birth to this child, my aunt will protect her." With you mother and son in mind, the future and glory of our Lin family depends entirely on you."
The queen nodded repeatedly. The pain almost made her suffocate. She knew that she could only regain her life if she persisted, so she did not dare to lose her temper anymore and could only go all out.
The Queen Mother didn't go out, she just stayed there, staring at the mothers-in-law, and said sternly, "You must give birth to the prince safely tonight. If there is anything wrong between the Queen and the prince, the Ai family will definitely hold them accountable!"
One by one, the palace officials responded one after another, how dare they not be wholehearted.
But the child barely moved, the Queen couldn't exert any force, and the labor process was extremely long. She had fetal pressure in the morning, and the labor started in the evening. But it was already early in the morning, and there was still no sign of labor. The Queen's mentality collapsed again. Crying and begging the Queen Mother to let her go.
But the Queen Mother is sitting here, how can she let the Queen be willful? While comforting her, she asked Wen Po to think of a way, and also asked the imperial doctors to find a way to keep the Queen's energy and energy from passing out.
At this time, Jin Xin was waiting anxiously in Cheng'en Palace, praying in her heart that the queen would be safe. For nothing else, she just hoped that she could get through this difficulty and that the queen would get through it, otherwise...
I didn't dare to think about it deeply, for fear that something would really happen.
The maids who were sent have not returned yet, and until midnight, there is no news.
Jin Xin's heart sank a little bit. Could it be that the Queen's child could not be saved?
It's not normal to have given birth for so long.
Finally, just after Mao hour, the people she sent out brought back the news.
"The queen is born, mother and child are safe!"
Jin Xin breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then reacted, "Mother and son are safe?"
"Yes, he is a prince. It's just that he was not pregnant, so he didn't cry. I heard that the royal doctor treated him well, and it took a long time for the prince to cry."
Jin Xin was stunned. She was born more than seven months ago, and it took such a long time. It was normal for the baby to be weak, but she couldn't cry. She couldn't be a fool, right?
But no matter what, the mother and son are safe after all.
At this time, in the Kunning Palace, the Queen Mother walked up to the emperor with the thin prince in her arms, smiled kindly, and said, "Emperor, come and see your legitimate son."
The Emperor becomes a father again. Naturally, he was also happy. He took the child, held it carefully, and said, "This child is so small, much smaller than Hong'er."
The Queen Mother was a little displeased, "If it weren't for them, this child wouldn't have come out at this time. If he had been raised in her belly for two months, he would have been white and tender!"
Hearing this, the emperor smiled awkwardly, nodded, and said, "The queen is right, what name should I give this child?"
"It's up to you. It's not easy for this child to come, and the Queen has suffered even more. Go and see her," the Queen Mother said.
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, and then carried the child into the inner hall. Seeing the queen's weak face, he suddenly felt distressed and guilty. He walked to the bed and sat gently on the bed.
When the queen heard the noise, she opened her eyes weakly, and saw the emperor coming. She smiled, but she was very happy, "Your Majesty, have you seen the child?"
The emperor looked at the child in his arms and said with a smile, "Here, the child is fine. Thank you for your hard work."
The queen looked at the child and held it forward so that the queen could see clearly. She looked at the child. Although it looked thinner, she welcomed his arrival with joy in her eyes and was moved in her heart. This was the child that she almost lost her life in giving birth to. The boy, as expected, is really a boy.
"Has the emperor chosen a name?" she asked expectantly.
"I think the birth of this child has been difficult. I hope my ancestors can protect him and grow up healthily. I will call him Jingyou. What does the Queen think?"
The Queen smiled when she heard this and said, "I feel it is very good, and I thank the Emperor for the name."
"I have already dealt with Concubine De and Concubine Yu about what happened yesterday," the emperor said again.
The queen looked stunned for a moment. She didn't know how to deal with it. The emperor deliberately mentioned it. Was this to hint that he would intercede with the queen mother?
The queen was unhappy, but she thought that her fetus would never be delivered to term, so she just had an opportunity to give birth ahead of schedule.
The queen calmed down her emotions and continued, "Since the emperor has dealt with it, I have nothing to say."
"Well, now that you have given birth safely, I am relieved. You can take care of your health with peace of mind. Let Concubine De handle the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet for the time being. How about that?"
The queen nodded, she was very tired and was going to sleep, so the emperor had no choice but to get up and leave.
But not long after the emperor left, the wet nurse hurriedly found Mingxia and said in a panic, "The second prince seems to be in trouble."
When Mingxia heard this, her expression tightened, she glared at the wet nurse, and scolded in a low voice, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
The wet nurse hurriedly took Mingxia's hand and went to see the child. She saw that the child's face was dark and purple. She was so frightened that Mingxia almost lost her balance and hurriedly wanted to go to the inner hall to report to the queen.
But as soon as she entered the inner hall, she saw the queen sleeping peacefully. She had been tired all night. If she knew the bad news, she might not be able to bear it and leave the root of her illness.
She made a prompt decision and invited Doctor Chen to come. Doctor Chen was waiting in the palace in case anything happened. When he heard about it, he hurried over.
The second prince's complexion was extremely poor and he had difficulty breathing. His complexion was so suffocated that it turned purple, and his lips were also purple.
Dr. Chen quickly applied the acupuncture and didn't even cry when the needle was inserted, which made me anxious.
Mingxia immediately went to tell the Queen Mother. When the Queen Mother heard the words and rushed over, she had already heard the child's cry, but the sound was not loud and it was whimpering. It seemed that she had no strength to cry.
"How is the Second Prince?" the Queen Mother asked.
Doctor Chen had a troubled expression on his face. When the Empress Dowager saw it, she withdrew and let Doctor Chen speak.
"Do you think the second prince has any congenital disease?" the Queen Mother asked.
"Yes, the second prince has a heart disease, coupled with the insufficient fetus and dystocia, this will cause great damage to the heart and lungs. I'm afraid..."
Imperial Physician Chen did not dare to continue speaking for fear of offending the Queen Mother and being scolded.
"Say, what will happen?"
"It is impossible to raise a child like this. No matter how careful you are in raising him, he will look like an idiot."
When the Queen Mother heard this, she felt uncomfortable. She closed her eyes and couldn't accept the fact. After a while, she asked, "Is it related to the forced pregnancy drugs?"
"It's somewhat related. The queen had been used to avoid childbirth before. The drug residue could not be removed and she was forced to become pregnant. The fetus is a process of survival of the fittest in the mother's body. She was forced to stay, and it was difficult to give birth for a long time. She was able to survive. It’s pretty good.”
Chen Yuyi's words were heart-breaking, which made the Queen Mother feel extremely uncomfortable.
After suffering for so long, she actually gave birth to a sick and idiotic child. She shook her head and sighed, "It's useless."
"The Ai family will tell the queen about this matter. To the outside world, just say it was caused by premature birth. Do you understand?"
Doctor Chen nodded, of course he understood that he was loyal to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother sighed and went to the inner hall. Looking at her niece who was sleeping peacefully, she was thinking about how to speak.
