In the second year of the Chu Dynasty, the Chu court focused on promoting two things. The first was to open up Danzhou, or encourage the development of overseas territories. The second was the Hanshui Weir Project - a super dam that was said to be larger than Dujiangyan and serve the entire Hanshui Basin.
project.
Of course, outside the Chu State, the former was a bad government that forced people to migrate, and the latter was a waste of money and people.
But no matter how much they criticize, Chu State cannot stop because of this...
Although the Hanshui Weir project was officially approved in January, for such a large project, it only took more than three months for preliminary preparations and six-part review!
In April of the second year of Chuli, the initial interception project of Hanshui Weir officially started.
Coincidentally, on the eighth day of April, the first day the construction of the Hanshui Weir began, Lu Lingqi was also in labor!
The medical school, which had been on standby for a long time, immediately sent the queen into the delivery room that had been arranged in the palace. In the past few days, Bai Tu could not sit still in Jiangshan Pavilion and skipped work in advance. The published speech to Hanshui Weir
It was written in advance.
Lu Bu did not come to Jiangshan Pavilion that day, and Lu Su and others were not confused about this, and even Jia Xu did not come... But Jia Xu was just going home to be lazy, and Lu Su and others were not confused about this either!
In fact, it's not just Bai Tu, Lu Bu, whether it's the great scholar in Jiangshan Palace or the six officials in Jiangshan Garden, from the minister to the scribe, whoever knows about this doesn't have something in mind?
Even among the people of Jinling, there were some who could "guess" that the queen was going to give birth recently.
Because of the previous "rumors", Lu Lingqi was also stubborn. She often went out for a walk with her belly held on, and occasionally called Xia Houjuan to help her along - you all took good care of it! This was conceived by my mother herself! It was not stolen or robbed.
!
If the queen gives birth to a heir apparent today, he will be Bai Tu’s eldest son, which means that the power of Chu State officially has an heir...
For a long time, because of Bai Tu's "not in a hurry", countless subjects of Chu State were secretly anxious.
Having no heir is definitely a huge risk for internal instability within the power.
It was only because Bai Tu was still young and he was promoting the safety of "late marriage" that everyone did not reveal their urgency too much.
But now Lu Lingqi's delivery has undoubtedly touched the hearts of countless people...
After all, the queen does not come from a small family. Lu Bu is still a Privy Council envoy and even holds the title of Grand Master. Once "Queen Lu" really gives birth to a heir, in "Celebrating the Kingdom of Chu to have a stable heir"
"Under the general premise, most people must have their own little calculations.
On the contrary, those who have the least calculations in their minds right now should be Bai Tu, Lu Lingqi and Lu Bu...
One of them was screaming loudly in the delivery room, and the other two were walking around anxiously outside the delivery room.
"Madam, are you in pain now? What kind of pain is it?" the experienced midwife on the side asked quickly.
"Actually...it's okay, but I've seen other people scream when they were giving birth." Lu Lingqi stopped to explain, and then continued to scream high-pitched.
Midwife, Bachelor of Medicine:...
"Madam...save your strength first, you will have to exert more force later." the midwife reminded.
"Are the two cows strong enough?" Lu Lingqi interrupted her high-pitched cry again and asked seriously.
Midwife, Bachelor of Medicine:...
Little Deng Ai was also outside at this time, comforting Bai Tu and saying, "Father, those mother-in-laws and my mother are very experienced, and my mother is so powerful, everything will be fine! The bachelors from the medical school are also on standby.
Even if something unexpected happens, it is completely under control.”
"As a father, I'm not in a hurry. I just came to see the hard-working midwives and bachelors, hehehe..." Bai Tu maintained his last dignity.
Deng Ai really wanted to remind Bai Tu that he was not wearing the same pair of shoes...
"Why didn't you scream?" Bai Tu's expression suddenly changed, and he wanted to break in. Lu Bu also reacted after hearing this.
Fortunately, someone stopped her at the door: "Your Majesty, General Lu, the Queen was just... practicing her voice before, but now she is conserving her strength."
Bai Tu, Lu Bu:......
More than half an hour later, Lu Lingqi's scream sounded vaguely again. Bai Tu and Lu Bu, who finally calmed down, looked towards the delivery room again.
This time they were not kept waiting for too long. After a while, Lu Lingqi's voice became louder, and when it reached its highest pitch, it stopped abruptly with just one sound.
Then there were two seconds of silence. In Bai Tu's heart, it was far more than two seconds. He was about to shout "Bao Da"... A slightly hoarse childish cry rang out from the room!
This time there was no need for Bai Tu to break in. Mother Deng, who immediately helped inside, opened the door and announced the good news: "Congratulations to the king, mother and son are safe, they are the heir apparent."
Bai Tu finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm going to see Lingqi!"
However, Bai Tu and Lu Bu only walked to the outer room and were stopped again. They could vaguely hear a panicked voice from inside: "Huh? No! There's another one!"
There is another one?
In fact, Hua Tuo had warned before about the possibility of having twins - Lu Lingqi's pregnancy was obviously higher than the average level.
Just because there was no X-ray machine at this time, we couldn't make a final confirmation, but we were all prepared.
After discovering that there was another child, he started a new round of midwifery based on the few examples of twin births that Hua Tuo had found before.
Soon after, there was another high-pitched scream, and then the baby's cry became a symphony...
Mother Deng also came out quickly and said: "Your Majesty! They are twins! They are both heirs!"
"Is it gone?" Bai Tu asked, still a little frightened.
When Hua Tuo told him before that twins could not be ruled out, Bai Tu felt something bad in his heart.
Although Lu Lingqi's body is larger than that of ordinary mothers, twins will definitely increase the risk - with the current technology and sanitary conditions, it is impossible to have a caesarean section...
If the childbirth is really difficult, no matter how good the system is, it cannot ensure safety!
Hua Tuo also saw Bai Tu's nervousness, so he didn't mention the matter too much to Bai Tu. He only reminded Lu Lingqi and brought a group of bachelors from the medical school on standby.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, mother and child are safe, and the two young princes are also healthy." Mother Deng said quickly, and the midwife on the side also took out the two babies who were wrapped tightly.
When Bai Tu heard the crying so loudly, he felt relieved about them and quickly went into the house to see Lu Lingqi again.
Although the mother is usually invisible at this time, how can the average midwife dare to stop the King of Chu? As for the medical scholars, they think that as long as it is not exposed to wind and does not affect the mother's rest, there is not so much to pay attention to...
Seeing that Bai Tu hadn't even looked at the children yet, and went to look at Lu Lingqi's back inside the house first, a look of relief and relief appeared in Lu Bu's eyes. At the same time... he went to hug the two children and smiled like a flower.
