Mingyu said persistently: "Your Majesty, I know you don't want to hear it, and I also know that it is your flesh and blood. You can't be cruel, but..."
Hongli suddenly interrupted Mingyu and said: "Queen, are you worried about the safety of the Qing Dynasty, or do you just don't want to see Concubine Xian give birth to that child?"
Mingyu looked at Hongli in astonishment, "What are you talking about, Your Majesty? Of course I am concerned about the safety of the Qing Dynasty. As for Concubine Xian, I have already put aside the past matters, and there is no need to target her anymore."
Hongli looked at her steadily and said: "Actually, there are still six or seven months before Xianyue's child is born. There will be no major disaster before then. However, the queen keeps urging me to get rid of that child. Do you need to be so anxious?
?" After a pause, he said again: "Queen, have you really let go of the past?"
Mingyu's eyes flickered: "Of course it's true. I deceived the emperor to do what I did. As for Concubine Xian's child, I'm afraid that the older the child is, the less the emperor will be able to bear to do it. After all, it is your own flesh and blood. Furthermore,
Although the disaster star has not yet appeared, troubles continue to happen in the palace. I am really afraid that things will get worse if they continue, so I give advice."
Hongli sighed lowly and said: "I hope things are really as the Queen said. I still have many things to approve."
Mingyu didn't expect that he would leave so soon, so he quickly called: "Your Majesty..."
"I will come see the queen tomorrow." After saying this, Hongli left without looking back, leaving Mingyu with a disappointed look on his face.
After an unknown amount of time, Mingyu said quietly: "Jiyou, do you think I am wrong?"
Ji You said quickly: "Master is thinking about the Qing Dynasty, how could he be wrong? From my perspective, it is clearly that the Emperor is biased."
Mingyu said harshly: "Yes, even you can see it, but the emperor still refuses to admit it." At this point, she sighed again and said: "Every dispute between me and the emperor, every time
They broke up on bad terms, all because of Nala Xianyue, this
This woman is like my nightmare. I have tried my best to get rid of her, but I am always entangled with her. The emperor treats her better and better every day. Even at this time, he is still entangled with her.
He protected her and even specially arranged for her to go to the Old Summer Palace."
Ji You advised: "The emperor is fascinated by her now. Master, no matter how much you say, you still won't listen."
Mingyu pounded the bed hatefully and gritted his teeth: "I hate you so much. Why did you listen to her nonsense back then and let her have the opportunity to become the emperor's concubine? If not, why would you be in trouble today?"
Ji You consoled him: "The matter has come to this, and it is useless for the master to regret it. It is better not to think about it, so as not to hurt your mind."
Mingyu said irritably: "Okay, you can go down, I want to be alone for a while."
Ji You lowered his eyes and said, "Yes, Master, please rest for a while, then I will go and see if the anti-fetal medicine is ready."
Although Ji You advised Mingyu not to think too much, Mingyu couldn't control herself. In her mind, she kept thinking about her previous trust in Nala Xianyue; thinking about how she had killed her first child; thinking about Yonglian.
’s death and his year of grounding.
Although during this period of time, she had been following Hongli and not saying anything wrong about Nala Xianyue, the hatred in her heart only increased. Now she saw Hongli's defense of Nala Xianyue, and she was even more angry.
To the extreme.
Hatred made her ignore the fetal movements. It wasn't until her abdomen tightened and pain was felt that she woke up and quickly called out: "Jiyu! Jiyu!"
After a while, Ji You walked in and said respectfully: "Master, what are your orders?"
"Quick! Go to the imperial doctor, I..." Mingyu was halfway through her words when she suddenly felt a warmth between her legs. The next moment, her whole face turned pale. She had given birth to a child and knew this kind of thing.
What does warm mean? It's either blood or amniotic fluid. No matter which one it is, it means she is about to give birth and the baby will be born early.
Ji You looked wrong and asked, "Master, what happened?"
Mingyu forced himself to calm down and said: "Quickly tell the imperial doctor and Po Wen that I may be pregnant; also, hurry up and ask the emperor to come over."
Ji You was shocked when he heard this. After ordering the palace servants to come in and take care of Mingyu, he called two palace servants and rushed to invite the imperial doctor, Wen Po and Hongli respectively.
After Hongli returned to Yangxin Hall, he was full of exhaustion. Time flew by and everything could not go back to the past. Mingyu... was no longer the same Mingyu. She had never really let go of her resentment towards Xianyue.
He sat in the chair with his eyes closed. He didn't know how long it had been before he heard the sound of slight footsteps, followed by a familiar voice, "Your Majesty, Ji You is outside asking for an audience!"
Hongli frowned and said without opening his eyes: "I don't want to see anyone now. Let him go back and don't bother me again."
"Hey!" Si Xi followed the words and retreated, then walked in again after a while and said: "Your Majesty..."
Hongli interrupted him impatiently, "Didn't you hear what I said clearly? Get out of here!"
Sixi shrank and wanted to retreat but felt it was inappropriate. After hesitating for a moment, he boldly said: "Your Majesty, Ji Yu came to report that the Queen was born prematurely."
Hongli suddenly opened his eyes and said in disbelief: "When I went to see the queen just now, she was fine. How could she suddenly give birth prematurely?"
"I don't know, but Ji Yu came to report, indeed..." Before Si Xi finished speaking, Hongli had already rushed out. Although he was disappointed with Mingyu, he still cared about his married wife.
Hongli didn't even hold an umbrella, and rushed all the way to Kunning Palace despite the night snow that hadn't stopped yet. At this time, Imperial Physician Fang and Po Wen had arrived, and the palace people kept coming in and out, all with expressions on their faces.
Extremely nervous.
When Hongli saw Imperial Physician Fang coming out, he quickly asked: "How is the Queen? Is it okay?"
Imperial Physician Fang bowed and said, "To return to the Emperor, the Empress Dowager gave birth prematurely due to fetal gas, but her condition is still stable. The Emperor does not need to worry too much. Po Wen is currently delivering the baby to the Empress."
Fortunately, the palace always asks Po Wen to live in the palace after the concubine is six months pregnant and is on call at any time. Otherwise, Po Wen would be nowhere to be found during this period of time.
Si Xi, who followed later, brushed the snow off Hongli's clothes and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. The Queen is blessed with great blessings, and both mother and child will be safe."
Hongli ignored Si Xi's words and just waited anxiously. Although Dr. Fang said that the situation was optimistic, the child was not born for a long time. Instead, the maids kept coming out with blood.
Logically speaking, Mingyu was the second child and shouldn't have been born so slowly. Hongli was worried. Just when he could hardly wait any longer, the baby's cry finally came from inside.
After a while, Po Wen came out with a happy face and held a small baby in her arms, "Congratulations to the Emperor, the Queen, the Empress, the little brother, mother and son are safe."
