Pregnant women are not allowed to touch swords or even scissors... Not only in today's era, in Zhang Shou's impression, there are also rules in later generations where mothers-in-law or mothers take pains to educate their daughters-in-law or daughters. Of course, for young people at his time, this kind of taboo
The main issue is not whether it is auspicious or not, but simply a matter of worrying that the pregnant woman may use a sharp weapon and injure herself by mistake.
However, for Yu Fei, who had fought a bloody battle with Jiu Niang on the eve of giving birth, and then both gave birth prematurely, swords were not only weapons of self-defense, but also another kind of spiritual sustenance for her.
Therefore, in the Yonghe Palace, even though the two Wen Pos who had moved in early to take care of them and the two medical women who had experience in taking care of pregnant women were extremely anxious, they still could not take the dagger from Concubine Yu's hand. Although her face was in pain,
She was pale, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, but Yufei's hand still held the sharp weapon firmly, and she refused to listen to anyone's advice.
She heard a commotion outside, and then she heard Zhu Ying's familiar voice, and she couldn't help laughing. Soon, with the sound of hurried footsteps, the familiar girl rushed directly in front of her.
, called the empress anxiously. Seeing Zhu Ying's face flushed with anxiety, she couldn't help laughing and said: "What are you afraid of? It's just giving birth to a child, it's not like I'm going to die!"
"Empress!" Zhu Ying was so angry that her eyebrows stood up, "How could you say such an unlucky word at this time! And this sword..."
Seeing Zhu Ying reaching out to grab the dagger in her hand, Yu Fei, although she was already sweating from the intense pain, still refused to give it to her until Zhu Ying said something in anger.
, she was slightly stunned, and in a state of confusion, the sword in her hand was taken away by the girl in front of her whom she had watched since childhood.
"Even if something happens, I will be there to protect you with my sword. I will make sure that no one can get in! Just give birth to your child in peace!"
Yuquan, who was following behind, couldn't help but hold her forehead when Zhu Ying said it. However, she wanted to be calmer after all. At this time, she asked Mrs. Wen and the medical girl and learned that although Concubine Yu had started early, the pain had already started, but the birth canal had just opened.
She frowned immediately, unsure whether this was premature labor and delivery was imminent, or there was some other condition with the fetus in her belly, or...
Or the worst possibility - dystocia.
With a complicated mood, she took a deep breath, but did not go forward to comfort her, because she knew that Concubine Yu's character did not need any comfort at all. She did not point fingers, but ordered Wen Po and the medical ladies to follow the instructions.
I made preparations with advance plans. Seeing that the palace servants in Yonghe Palace were also trying to calm down, I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Not to mention the biological mother of the third prince, the imperial concubine lives in the Sixth Palace in the West. It is not that fast to come here. Even if she is next door, her behavior will not be any better than that of Concubine Jiang. Therefore, she has not rushed there yet.
Coming here, she didn't think there was anything wrong.
However, there have been no more children in the palace in the past three years. The child in Concubine Yu's belly, even if the East Palace has a master, does not have much practical significance, but it can at least make up for the emperor's pain of losing a child.
Regardless of whether you are a man or a woman, it is a rare happy event. As for whether you will be as favored as the third prince when you grow up, it is really too early.
Although she had worried about whether the current emperor would be like this, the fame of the famous King Wuling of Zhao was ruined, but it was a matter of the future after all. The Queen Mother would not favor the current emperor just for the sake of the future.
How about Concubine Yu...
However, Yuquan, who was trying his best to reduce his presence, suddenly heard Concubine Yu's voice: "Yuquan Shanggong, where is Zhang Shou? Didn't Yingying say she would bring Zhang Shou to see me today?"
Just as Zhu Ying was about to answer, Yuquan said first: "He is with Concubine Jiang who is planning to rush over after hearing the news. He should be right behind us. Concubine Concubine, do you want to see him now?"
If it were another concubine, and at this juncture, she would definitely give up meeting an outsider with whom she had no relationship. But Yufei was Yufei after all. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and then
He said with no doubt: "Of course, I want to see him. I didn't expect to have another child at my age, and I owe this luck to his mother."
At this moment, Zhang Shou and Concubine Jiang happened to be standing in front of the delivery room of Yonghe Palace. Even though Concubine Yu's voice was not loud, under the premise that everyone else almost stopped breathing and tried not to make any sound, he naturally
He heard these words clearly. Before he could decide whether to take this as an opportunity to go in openly, Concubine Jiang on the side spoke.
"Xueshi Zhang, since the imperial concubine has said so, then you can go in." Just now, because she was in a hurry, she forgot the instructions of Qingning Palace and almost made a joke. Concubine Jiang was a little unnatural at first, but she and Zhang Shou were together.
When she came over, he told her about the fourth prince as if nothing had happened, and her mood had completely calmed down.
This is her son's favorite and most respected teacher, not an outsider!
After Concubine Jiang said this, she opened the door curtain herself with a smile. Faced with her enthusiasm and kindness, Zhang Shouwei bowed and thanked her, then calmed down and quickly stepped forward and crossed the threshold to enter.
Even if the palace servants and chamberlains of Yonghe Palace had known that Zhang Shou was coming - it was not that they had never seen him before - but now they really saw such a young man coming in openly from the door, he was clearly the God of Feng.
He was handsome, elegant and elegant, and seemed to be three points more handsome than before. Some of them were heartbroken, while others secretly went to see Zhu Ying.
Compared with Princess Yongping, who is the daughter of the emperor, even though her life experience is unknown, Zhu Ying not only has the love of the palace and the Duke of Zhao, but also has such a husband. She is simply blessed. Princess Yongping is now married to two people in a row.
Words have become taboo!
Zhang Shou ignored the eyes that were focused on him. When he saw Zhu Ying coming forward, she grabbed him and walked to the bed. He saw a Wen Po put down the curtain, and was immediately dismissed by Yu Quan, who shook his head. He hesitated for a moment, and then
He stopped three or four steps away from the bed.
Although he does not shy away from the so-called rule these days that men cannot enter the delivery room - after all, many obstetricians and gynecologists in later generations are men, and there are also men who feel sorry for their wives and enter the delivery room to accompany their babies, only to be scared out of their wits - but
Concubine Yu is not Zhu Ying, so even if she is actually half mother-in-law, he should not get too close to her.
When he started to greet you, he said apologetically: "Mother, I seem to have come at the wrong time."
"No, you came at the right time."
Concubine Yu smiled very naturally. When she saw Zhu Ying sitting on the bedside hurriedly came over to help her wipe her sweat, she continued softly: "I didn't expect that the child would actually move when you came today.
, it seems that he also wants to be born into this world as soon as possible. Ah Shou, your mother is the lifesaver of Yingying and I, her mother, and she and I both owe her a life."
Before Zhang Shou could object to this statement, she blinked at Zhang Shou: "Now, Yingying is married to you, although this kind of thing cannot be regarded as my or Jiuniang's repayment of your mother's love. After all, Yingying is married to you.
You two are in love with each other, and it is not just the fate of your parents or the words of a matchmaker, but in the end, we are relieved because of your fate."
She took a gentle breath, and then said in a deep voice: "Yingying, take Xiaoyue to my main hall bedroom. There is a box in the west corner. When you and Ah Shou go back, take the whole box with you.
Go up and take it.”
Zhu Ying was about to refuse, but she saw that Concubine Yu's eyes were bright and clear, and there was no doubt that Yuquan was silent. She also saw that Zhang Shou hesitated for a moment but did not refuse. After thinking about it, she said coquettishly: "Okay, I
Just go over and see if there is anything in the box that we like and can use. I will take it away in a moment, and the other ladies will leave it to Mingyue and her brothers and sisters!"
Seeing Zhu Ying look at him after she finished speaking, Zhang Shou couldn't help but give her a thumbs up - such a tacit and excellent wife is so perfect.
Rather than simply rejecting Concubine Yu's good intentions, which even seemed to be entrusted with the funeral arrangements, Zhu Ying's approach without showing any concern was the best. And with his silent praise, Zhu Ying was naturally elated and called her
Xiaoyue, whom she had always been familiar with, immediately went there.
Yuquan, on the other hand, stood aside and watched quietly, without any intention of criticizing her. Not long after, she heard Zhu Ying yelling from outside, "Why can't I be polite to that girl Mingyue..." and she went quietly.
When I observed Zhang Shou, I saw that Zhang Shou was calmly joking with Concubine Yu.
"I said before that I feel I owe my mother, so if you give birth to a prince, how about you become my student in the future?"
Seeing that Concubine Yu was slightly stunned, he smiled and spread his hands and said: "Of course gods can't separate men and women, but if it's a daughter, wouldn't there be Yingying who can be a teacher? This time the girls' school opened, she said she didn't want to care about it before.
After running forward with great interest, it is estimated that she will not be able to retire in the future. How about letting her teach the little princess?"
Concubine Yu's eyes lit up, and when she saw Zhang Shou smiling easily, she asked softly: "Are you serious?"
"Of course it's true!" Zhang Shou said seriously, "Yingying also said before that I have a lot of students now, and she also wants to accept a few. But Hailing County Master is very interested, but I guess
I can't bear the hardship of practicing martial arts, so I'm just defending myself... If I'm not worried about the little princess suffering in the future, then just let Yingying be the teacher."
"Okay, okay." Concubine Yu's eyebrows were filled with smiles at this moment, and her whole body was completely relaxed. "When the child is born, whether it is a boy or a girl, I will give it to you and Yingying as students. If you are qualified,
Okay, you can teach arithmetic and all kinds of knowledge, and Yingying can teach martial arts. If the qualifications are not good... it would be good for him to learn cooking skills from the Chenglong son-in-law of King Jiangdu."
Hearing this, Zhang Shou once again confirmed that even though Concubine Yu was physically strong and mentally tough, she seemed a little pessimistic for some reason in the face of this birth, otherwise she would not have entrusted her personal belongings and even her children in advance.
give them.
Thinking of this, he said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you are really too open-minded. Compared with you, the elders in the families of the noble disciples in Banshan Hall of Public School are not so open-minded."
Seeing Zhang Shou talking calmly and calmly about the gossips of the Banshan Hall middle school students' families, how a certain elder chased and killed the unsatisfactory junior at home with a cane for an hour because his children said they wanted to open a racecourse; what a certain family's servants and
Intermarriage between common people in the outside world and asking for a certain amount of property is like selling a daughter; how could a son of a certain family go on blind dates several times and unexpectedly meet a professional blind date girl...
Meeting the same beater three times could be regarded as a different kind of fate. It is said that he was the daughter of a poor family.
Yuquan saw Zhang Shou talking there with great interest, as if he was chatting with ordinary elders, while Yu Fei's expression gradually relaxed, and she asked a few questions from time to time. While she breathed a sigh of relief,
But he also somewhat admired Zhang Shou's calmness.
After all, it has been an unwritten rule for a long time that men do not enter the delivery room. No matter how close they are, they can only wait outside for good or bad news. Zhang Shou was able to face such an unexpected situation at such a young age.
Come up with this way to comfort the mother.
Zhang Shou tried his best to jump around the topic and try to make Concubine Yu think less. During this period, he saw Po Wen entering and exiting the curtain tent, so he had to step back a few steps to avoid getting in the way. Soon, his helper came back. However,
I saw Zhu Ying walking in briskly, and then said with a smile: "Ah Shou, your empress's box is so big. It contains all the books she has collected over the years, as well as several weapons!"
"Those books were all kinds of strange things and literati's notes. That's why she felt that Mingyue, the girl who loves classical and historical articles most, wouldn't like them. As for weapons... Haha, Mingyue wouldn't even touch them.
! There is actually a set of armor inside, oh my, I really wanted to put it on and let you take a look just now!"
Yu Fei's eyes suddenly showed a strange light, and the relaxed look just now disappeared, replaced by a bit of eagerness. She even grabbed the bed and wanted to sit up like this: "Since you want to wear it, then go and wear it quickly."
Let me take a look! Although it is an old thing, it is well maintained. It has never been worn outside, and I am not afraid of any evil spirits... Come on, dress it up and show me!"
Zhu Ying was stunned for a moment, then without much hesitation, she said hello directly and hurried back.
Zhang Shou saw that Wen Po, who was standing in front of the bed, suddenly turned her head and looked at Yuquan. Immediately afterwards, the Qingning Palace Shang Gong looked at him and shook his head very slightly. He first thought in his heart
For a moment, he mistakenly thought that Yu Fei's current situation was very bad, but when he saw Yu Quan's peaceful expression, coupled with the busy work and strange smell of a group of people just now, he thought about it again and couldn't help but think of another possibility.
Could it be... Yu Fei's preparations for giving birth went very well, but she was about to give birth, so he needed to avoid it?
Zhang Shou didn't have time to think about it, and immediately said with a smile: "I have never seen Yingying wearing armor. I heard that armor is very difficult to wear. Even if there is someone to help, I think it will be difficult for her. Don't blame me, I will go there right away.
Give her a hand, and I'll let you appreciate what Hua Mulan is like in this world in a moment."
Seeing Zhang Shou smile and nod to Concubine Yu, and then he really rolled up his sleeves and passed in a helpful manner, Yuquan was relieved. You know, the Wen woman squirmed her lips to hint to her that Concubine Yu's birth canal had opened her five fingers.
She was about to open her six fingers, and there was no telling what would happen next, so she certainly hoped that the man Zhang Shou would understand the hint and avoid it quickly!
