On this day, Hongli went down to Yanxi Palace. The first thing he said after seeing Xianyue was, "Isn't this little lazy guy planning to come out?"
Xianyue smiled, put down the small clothes in her hands and said, "How can any Ama talk about her children like this, and she still says it every day."
Hongli sat down with a smile and said, "I didn't accuse him wrongly. It's been three days and he still refuses to come out. I don't know how anxious I am about waiting. Could it be that he wants to imitate Nezha and stay in his mother's womb for three years?"
Zero six months?”
Xianyue joked: "Isn't that great? You can walk and run as soon as you are born, and you still have magic power. If there is any rebellion in the future, just send him alone."
"You are always talking nonsense to me." After scolding Hongli with a smile, he placed his palm on Xianyue's swollen belly and said softly: "My child, come out quickly so that Huang Ama can hug you personally.
"
Xianyue looked gentle and said: "Leave him alone. Auntie said that one day in the womb is better than seven days outside. If you stay a few more days, your body will be stronger after birth."
Hongli took it seriously and said: "Yes, but don't be like Yongqi. For more than a year, he has to take medicine every day and drink more medicine than milk. It makes me feel bad to see him."
Xianyue said: "Is it true that Fifth Brother's disease cannot be cured?"
Hearing this, Hongli sighed and said: "The imperial doctor said that the diseases brought from the mother's womb are the most difficult to cure. People like Yongqi can only be nursed back to health slowly."
"Fifth brother is still young now. He should be better when he grows up." Faced with Xianyue's comfort, Hongli nodded, and then changed the topic and said: "I heard Song Zihua say, from your pulse pattern
Look, this baby is more likely to be a girl."
Song Zihua had mentioned this matter to Xianyue a few days ago, but it was just a guess based on the pulse. Whether it was accurate or not would not be known until the child was born.
Xianyue said with a half-smile but not a smile: "Listening to the emperor's tone, he seems a little disgusted."
Hongli immediately said: "How can I dislike it? It's too late for me to hope. I already have six elder brothers under my knees, but there is no little princess. I don't know how much I hope you can bring me the first princess."
.”
Xianyue looked at her abdomen and said with a smile: "I hope I won't disappoint the emperor."
While they were talking, the palace servants brought up washed grapes. After Hongli tasted one on Xianyue's hand, he frowned and said, "As soon as autumn comes, the grapes are not as delicious as they are in summer. They always show a certain taste."
It feels sour."
"Since the emperor doesn't like it, I will send someone to cut the honeydew melons." Before Xianyue's instructions, Hongli said, "No need, the weather is very good today, I will go out for a walk with your concubine."
Xia Yue walked with her in the autumn light as she was told. The osmanthus trees in the imperial garden bloomed quietly, and the air was filled with the unique fragrance of osmanthus, which made people feel relaxed and happy. After walking for a while, Hongli asked with concern: "Are you tired?"
"My concubine is very good." She took a deep breath and said with a smile: "At this time every year, the sweet-scented osmanthus blooms, but it is only in this season. After that, you have to wait another year before you can smell this fragrance again.
.”
Hongli glanced at the sweet-scented osmanthus trees around and said: "If you like it, I will have people collect the sweet-scented osmanthus and make it into wine. If you want, take it out and drink some."
Xianyue said in a funny voice: "I'm not a drunkard, so why do you drink all day long? But... I want to take some sweet-scented osmanthus back now."
"I will fold it for you." Hongli came to the osmanthus tree and broke off the best blooming bunch from each tree. At this moment, A Luo's panicked voice suddenly came from behind him, and he quickly looked back.
When she arrived, she saw Xianyue leaning on Ah Luo with a pale face, Si Xi supporting her at the side.
Upon seeing this, Hongli quickly dropped what he was holding, ran to Xianyue, and said anxiously: "What's wrong? Are you about to give birth?"
Xianyue said with difficulty: "It should be... it should be, my stomach... hurts, it really hurts!"
"Don't be afraid. I'm here. It'll be okay. I'll take you back to Yanxi Palace right away." With that said, Hongli immediately held Xia Yue up in his arms, and then said to A Luo and Si Xi: "You two will immediately
Go ask the imperial doctor and Po Wen, quickly!"
The two agreed and left quickly. Hongli carried Xianyue and rushed all the way to Yanxi Palace. Although Xianyue was not as fat as Concubine Yu when she was pregnant, she was still heavy. The road from the Imperial Garden to Yanxi Palace
It's not close. Along the way, Hongli's hands became heavier and heavier, and his breathing became more rapid.
When the pain subsided, Xianyue felt his exertion and said: "Your Majesty, please put me down. I should still be able to walk."
Hongli gasped and said: "It doesn't matter, I can still hold you. We are almost at the Yanxi Palace."
Seeing his insistence, Xianyue stopped talking. In fact, she couldn't speak anymore, because the next wave of more severe pain swept over her, and her whole body seemed to be caught in a small boat in the wind and waves.
After an unknown amount of time, Xianyue felt herself being placed in a soft place. A big hand stroked her forehead, and Hongli's deep voice came to her ears, "Don't be afraid, it's okay, I'm right outside."
After a while, a strange voice sounded in her ears, sometimes asking her to exert force, sometimes asking her to breathe in. She knew it was Wen Po, and she also knew that A Luo was beside her, but the pain was so painful that she couldn't even open her eyes.
No, I tried again and again, but I still couldn't give birth to the baby.
Po Wen was still asking her to exert force, but she couldn't exert any force. It was as if all the strength in her body had been emptied out. She was more than willing but not strong enough. After a while, some concoction was poured into her mouth, and then something was poured into her mouth.
She stuffed it under the base of her tongue. While the bitterness spread in her mouth, it also restored her strength. She knew that it should be ginseng used to replenish her vitality.
Xianyue tried her best to push down, changing the ginseng under her tongue one after another. After an unknown amount of time, she felt her whole body relax, and then the sound of a baby crying came to her ears...
A Luo squeezed her hand hard, crying and laughing: "Master, I'm born, I'm born!"
The next moment, Xianyue fell into boundless darkness. After an unknown period of time, she vaguely felt someone speaking in her ears and tried to open her eyes.
Seeing her eyes open, A Luo quickly said: "Master, are you awake?"
Xianyue sat up with her hand in her hand and said, "How long have I been asleep?"
A Luo stuffed two goose down cushions behind her and chuckled: "You have been sleeping all day. If you wake up earlier, you can see the emperor."
Xianyue nodded slightly, and then said nervously: "Where are the children? Where are my children?"
Zhichun came in with ginseng soup and said with a smile: "Master, don't be nervous. Everything is fine with the little princess. I will go and bring the little princess here."
"Is she really a princess?" Seeing Xianyue asking this, Zhichun's smile faltered and he said tentatively: "Master, don't you like the little princess?"
Xianyue was startled, then smiled and said: "Where did you think of it? How could I not like it? I just didn't expect that the imperial doctor of Song Dynasty could make such an accurate diagnosis. Fortunately, he kept saying that he was not good at Qianjin Yiyi."
