Concubine Yan took the lead in organizing the condolence ceremony in the harem.
She was already in labor, her belly was swollen, and she didn't sleep all day and night.
After finally coming to an end, I returned to the palace. My eyes were swollen, my legs and feet were swollen, and I couldn't even put on my shoes. I couldn't say anything.
Madams who reach a certain level will go to the palace to mourn.
Li Cheng has been extremely busy these past two days. He has been in the palace and has not been home much.
When the prince's palace was established, the princess led a group to enter the palace to mourn.
When getting on the bus at the door, Princess Cheng met Lin Zhixiu. This was the first time she saw her after learning that she was pregnant.
He couldn't help but stare at her belly.
Lin Zhixiu was wearing a big cloak that covered her whole body. Her steps were steady and her attitude was calm. She didn't care at all about the way He Qing looked at her.
Pang Yuan didn't know about Lin Zhixiu's pregnancy. She was of the same rank as Lin Zhixiu and was not polite. She just had a bad look towards her.
Feng Jinling was the most disciplined. She saluted Lin Zhixiu and called her "Sister Lin."
Lin Zhixiu nodded but said nothing.
Pang Yuan snorted lightly and cursed a few bitches in her heart.
There will be a lot of people entering the palace today. Prince Cheng and his party can only squeeze into two cars. Princess Cheng ignored Lin Zhixiu and got into the first car without hesitation.
Lin Zhixiu took Nanyan and got into the second car.
Feng Jinling said: "Sister Pang, please ride with the princess in the car."
Pang Yuan rolled her eyes, said nothing, and got on the first bus directly.
Feng Jinling got into the car that Lin Zhixiu was sitting in. As soon as she sat firmly, the car started to leave. She had no aura at all and said softly: "Sister Lin, my sister has prepared a water bag and some snacks. Do you want to take them with you?"
The last one? I don’t know when I’ll be back. If I’m thirsty or hungry, I can secretly make up for it.” After that, she pointed to the things in the hands of the girl next to her.
Are four exquisite embroidered bags.
Lin Zhixiu said: "You are thoughtful, thank you. But I don't need it, the girls have prepared it in advance."
"Hey, when you need it, just ask your sister for it." She secretly pinched the pills in her purse.
Success always comes to those who are prepared.
Next to Lin Zhixiu sat Nan Yan. After she became pregnant, she transferred Nan Yan back. Nan Yan was obviously more cautious than before. She was not allowed to bring weapons into the palace. Her belt was actually a soft whip. Who dared to come?
If you cause trouble for your empress, she will take action without saying a word.
Entering the palace, there are many people and they are very orderly. When they cry, the sky is loud, but when they rest, it is very quiet.
From the entrance to the mourning hall, Concubine Yan took care of all aspects in an orderly manner.
Today's process was over, and Lin Zhixiu and others went to the main hall. Concubine De sat on one side, and Concubine Yan sat on the other side. They were accompanied by their respective family members and women from the royal family.
Princess Cheng was usually very willing to spend her royal concubine's money and bring it with her to try on Lin Zhixiu. But on this occasion, she was still very disciplined.
Lin Zhixiu followed her and bowed to several empresses.
Then Lin Zhixiu arrived in front of Concubine Yan, and Mrs. Yan, Lin Jiangwan and others accompanied her.
Yan Yun had a huge belly, her face was pale and she looked tired.
Alas, with such a big belly, you still have to deal with these things, so don't let anything happen. Lin Zhixiu stepped forward and whispered: "My dear, can you still bear it?"
Concubine Yan saw her coming and nodded, "It's not bad." Her voice was hoarse.
"Your Majesty, Xiu'er thinks your complexion is not good. If it doesn't work, go and rest in the back. Leave the matters at hand to others first."
Concubine Yan whispered, "The emperor is too sad, so I must hold on for now."
The emperor felt most distressed for the prince, and he respected the queen very much. Both of them were gone at once. One can imagine how big a blow it was to him.
I really fell ill all of a sudden.
"But, looking at you... Xiu'er is very worried. At this time, you must not take it lightly! You and the prince in your belly are the most important. Everything else can be planned later."
Madam Yan had just advised her granddaughter in the same way. When she heard Lin Zhixiu say the same thing, she nodded slightly before she could say anything.
Lin Jiangwan whispered: "Such a big thing can't be done without my empress. Fortunately, the most troublesome time is over, and we will follow the procedure."
She looked at her daughter and was extremely worried. She was blaming the queen and the prince for choosing this time... But she also knew that now was a very sensitive period.
After the funeral is over, the ministers of the court will immediately mention the matter of re-establishing the queen and the prince.
When it comes to the position of queen, my daughter is definitely the most promising.
But if the prince is involved...
I am afraid that the emperor will establish King Jing!
If King Jing is made the crown prince, in order to make his name change and he is established in the court as soon as possible, there is a 80% chance that his mother-in-law... Empress Dowager De will be made the queen.
Concubine De had a powerful family and had been running the palace for many years. Most of her rights in the palace were taken away by her daughter! How could her hatred for her daughter be so small?!
If this situation really comes to pass, even if the daughter gives birth to a prince... let alone higher plans, even safety cannot be guaranteed!
Therefore, now is a very critical time and we must keep an eye on it.
Concubine Yan probably also had such worries. She said: "I know it in my heart. Just hold on for these two days and it will be fine."
Lin Zhixiu wanted to persuade her again, but Lin Jiangwan said to Lin Zhixiu seriously, "Your Majesty, I know what I mean, so don't talk too much!"
Mrs. Yan glanced at her, dissatisfied, but didn't say anything.
This was the case for the next two days.
Finally, after the busy day was over, Lin Zhixiu returned to the house, exhausted.
It took a while for Li Cheng to go home in a hurry. He was also very tired and had not eaten. But he was most concerned about Lin Zhixiu, "Axiu, are you exhausted?" His face was full of care and worry.
"It's okay." Lin Zhixiu looked at him. Except for the bloodshot eyes, it was her own. She was also very touched in her heart. After all, she did not marry the wrong person! "The imperial concubine has made proper arrangements. Those who are weak and old can rest."
In a moment. How are you doing there?"
Li Cheng said: "At the moment, it seems to be okay. However, my father is ill and I went to see him, but he was not allowed to see him."
"The Emperor must be very sad..."
"Yeah! I'm very sad too. Brother Prince, he's a very nice person! He never bullied me when I was a child."
The two of them sighed for a while, ate something simple, and went to bed.
In the evening, someone came in a hurry from outside and called at the gate of the courtyard, "My lord, please come out quickly, something happened in the palace."
Lin Zhixiu suddenly woke up and was about to sit up.
Li Cheng pulled her gently and said, "You don't have to get up, I'll go take a look!"
"I don't know what's wrong?" Lin Zhixiu's heart was pounding.
Li Cheng went out to ask, and came back and said, "It's said that the imperial concubine fell down the steps and is about to give birth to a child. It's difficult to give birth."
"Ah?!" Why is it that something happened at this time?
Li Cheng said, "I'll go into the palace and take a look. I can't help much with this kind of thing. Just don't let any other accidents happen!"
He left in a hurry.
Lin Zhixiu couldn't sleep either, so she got off the ground and walked back and forth.
Yan Yun is very tired these days. There are so many people waiting on her and she falls down the steps. This must be a problem!
Difficult childbirth... Although those imperial doctors have superb medical skills,... they may not have much experience in delivering women's babies. They will also worry about the status of the imperial concubine, and there are differences between men and women... Their methods will definitely be particularly conservative.
Concubine De has been operating in the palace for many years, and she doesn't know where her manpower will be... Yan Yun's status, power and pregnancy are her biggest threats.
Dystocia is the easiest thing to kill. It can be done quietly, and it can't be found out afterwards.
Although this cousin is not close to me... she still has the decency that a cousin should have. He can't see her in danger...
Although the Yan family is quite capable, I...don’t care whether it’s useful or not, let’s do my part!
"Beifei, hurry up and get the car ready. Nanyan, do you know where Mrs. Jin lives?"
Nan Yan said, "I know this! My uncle and wife asked me to go to her house several times."
"Okay! Let's go take people into the palace!"
She didn't clean up properly, put on a cloak and left.
It's a coincidence that Mrs. Jin is still fine today. Over the years, she has also made some money. The old man and two sons in the family have nothing to do, so she is the one who supports the family.
Although the son and his wife were incompetent, they were still filial. At this moment, one son and his wife were busy with the meal, while the other son and his wife were playing with her.
A bottle of wine was also prepared for her to have a good rest.
Mrs. Le and the old man had just drank half a bottle of wine when Lin Zhixiu arrived.
When Nan Yan came up, she pulled Mrs. Jin away.
Mrs. Jin recognized her and was not worried. She asked her daughter-in-law to take her treasure box and follow Nan Yan out. As she walked, she asked: "Which house is the girl talking about? These people in the hands of my mother-in-law recently have not seen their last days!"
But there was an accident?"
Nan Yan said: "Mom will know when she gets there. I'll take the box! Just go and do it yourself."
Mother-in-law Le didn't care, sent her daughter-in-law back, and got in the car.
As soon as I saw Lin Zhixiu, I was dumbfounded. Oh my God, such a beauty! Oh my God... I was speechless with my mouth open.
Lin Zhixiu said: "Mom, I will take you somewhere in a while, so you don't have to be too nervous. If you have your own ability, use it! If you are not sure, there is no need to show off. Once you have done it, your family will do it."
Prosperity and wealth are right before our eyes!"
Mother-in-law Le said: "Madam, you, you, want me to deliver the baby?"
"Well, you have delivered so many babies, so you must have seen the world. For a while, you must calm down, don't be afraid! I have everything under control!"
"Hey, the more you talk, the more nervous I become!"
Talking as he walked, he arrived at the palace gate.
As soon as Le Pozi got out of the car, her legs felt weak. Oh my God! You want me to enter the palace?
Lin Zhixiu had already sent someone to notify Li Cheng in advance. Li Cheng greeted her at the palace gate, "Axiu, what are you doing here?"
"I brought the midwife here, how are things going over there?"
"Maybe he wasn't born, and there's no news yet? But I didn't go to see him afterwards! My father was a little not well either..." He whispered to her.
What a mess!
"I brought a midwife here. She has delivered many babies to see if she can be used..."
In fact, she also felt guilty. It was a serious violation to bring people in in the first place.
Li Cheng doesn't care about this, what his wife says is the most reasonable.
"Okay, come with me!"
The guards at the gate of the palace stared for a long time, but did not dare to stop. There was only one small leader who followed Cheng Wang, tears streaming down his face, "My lord, the princess went in, it's okay, but this woman... wants to be known by the higher ups."
Well, a few of our brothers have lost their heads."
Li Cheng said: "I forced you to let go. Don't worry, I will take care of anything. If you turn around, you will be rewarded heavily!"
"I don't dare ask for a reward from the prince, I just want nothing to happen!" The man wiped his tears, he was really scared.
The group of people hurried to the back, and outside the imperial concubine's palace, Concubine De and several other emperor's concubines, Mrs. Yan, and Lin Jiangwan were all there.
Lin Jiangwan's face had lost all color. Mrs. Yan was being supported, and she was so nervous that she couldn't stand still. Several imperial doctors gathered together to discuss, their expressions solemn.
The emperor is not here, but looking at him, the eunuch beside him is.
Lin Zhixiu came and asked Lin Jiangwan directly, "How is your Majesty?!"
Lin Jiangwan was speechless, and there was sweat on his forehead.
Madam Yan shook her head gently, "She hasn't been born yet!"
"Who is responsible for this?"
A palace maid next to Concubine Yan was here. Seeing Lin Jiangwan and Mrs. Yan speechless, she cried and whispered, "The hospital is here in person. The one who delivered the baby is Dr. Wang... Dr. Wang is watching inside."
, If something happens, please report it. The hospital will discuss it with several doctors outside before going in..."
"What should I say now?" Lin Zhi interrupted her.
"It's said that the fetus is in an incorrect position and the cervix is not opened properly. When the queen fell, her ankles and arms were injured, and her ribs seemed to be broken... So, she couldn't use her strength for a while... It's been so long.
, the empress fainted twice, God..."
She didn't dare to cry, but she was also desperate.
Lin Zhixiu told Mrs. Yan and Lin Jiangwan, "Madam, aunt, I brought a midwife from outside. Let her go in and show the queen!?"
When Lin Jiangwan heard this, he was able to speak: "Don't be ridiculous! How can this be done? The hospital chief and several imperial doctors are here, but they can't do it. How can a woman do it? If something happens, even if he becomes the king, he will take care of it."
Sorry!"
Lin Zhixiu said calmly: "Aunt, this woman is not good at anything else, but she is very good at delivering babies! She has much more experience than any hospital official! Just now the palace maid said that the empress fainted twice and was injured...
...What will happen if this delay continues? Don’t you understand?”
Lin Jiangwan wanted to refute.
Mrs. Yan stopped her and said, "Concubine Concubine, you are well-intentioned. However, this matter is inconsistent with the rules of the palace. I'm afraid this person can't get in! Concubine De is right there, and it's impossible to let her go."
She goes in..."
"Then let this palace maid go in and ask the imperial concubine! If the imperial concubine agrees, no one can stop her!"
Lin Zhixiu's attitude is very firm.
Seeing how strong she was, Lin Jiangwan couldn't say anything against her...
Mrs. Yan thought to herself: Lin Jiangwan was not as capable of making a decision as her niece, so she made up her mind and said a few words to the palace daughter.
The palace maid quietly entered.
Ever since Lin Zhixiu entered the courtyard, Concubine De had noticed her. The strange woman didn't pay much attention at first, thinking she was a servant brought by Lin Zhixiu.
It was a bit strange to see her changing color while holding a box.
Not long after the palace maid entered, she came out and whispered a few words to Mrs. Yan.
Mrs. Yan nodded to Lin Zhixiu.
The palace maid took Lin Zhixiu and Le Pozi and walked in quietly.
"Concubine Lin, stop for me!" An arrogant voice stopped them.
