Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 453: Dragon and Phoenix Bringing Prosperity (2)
"You said that the imperial concubine is going to give birth?" The Empress Dowager Yu was kneeling on the futon in front of the Buddha statue, twirling Buddhist beads and reciting scriptures silently. When she heard the news, she couldn't help but stop, her eyes opened slightly, and she asked slowly.

"Return to what the Empress Dowager said, that's right!" Eunuch Wei bowed his waist and said respectfully.

The Empress Dowager Yu was silent for a while, before she said: "She is lucky, but I don't know if this good luck can last till the end."

Eunuch Wei didn't speak, even if he was a member of the Empress Dowager, he didn't dare to speak ill of the imperial concubine, who made the imperial concubine the emperor's heart and soul!Misfortune comes from his mouth, he doesn't want to cause trouble for himself.

Empress Dowager Yu didn't care whether he answered or not, she was just jealous of Su Wan.

It would be great if Su Wan and Guo Meiren could switch, she would be willing to leave immediately, but why is it her?
"Pay more attention to the movement of Yongning Palace. If there is any news, please notify Aijia in time." After the Queen Mother recovered, she immediately ordered.

"Yes!" Eunuch Wei bowed and said.

Empress Dowager Yu stopped talking, closed her eyes, and silently recited scriptures again.

At the same time, except for the Empress Dowager Yu and Concubine Hu Gui who were grounded, all other concubines went to Yongning Palace.

When Empress Ning arrived, many people had already arrived.

Seeing Empress Ning, everyone bowed to her one after another.

Empress Ning ignored everyone's ceremony, looked at it for a week, then frowned suddenly, and said in surprise, "Why didn't you see the emperor?"

Concubine De, who came a step earlier than her, said with a hint of sourness, she nodded her chin in the direction of the West Palace and said: "Your Majesty has entered the delivery room to accompany her."

"Nonsense!" Empress Ning immediately scolded, "The delivery room is an unclean place, and it is easy to cause bloody disasters. Ordinary men are not allowed to enter, let alone His Majesty, who is so rich in gold? Why don't you stop it? If something happens to His Majesty matter, can you take care of it?"

"When the concubine came, His Majesty had already gone in, how can we stop it?" Concubine Zhou De snorted and said, "What's the use of empress blaming us, you should tell the imperial concubine this."

Empress Ning choked for a moment, her face was a little ugly, even if she wanted to reprimand the imperial concubine, it would depend on whether she could get in.

After a while, Concubine Sun Shu also arrived.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not very good, he hurriedly asked with a smile: "Hey, what's the matter with everyone? Everyone is pulling their faces. I don't know, I thought you didn't want to see a newcomer in the harem!"

"Sister, where is this? There hasn't been a new baby in the palace for three years. Now, it's hard to add two heirs. This palace and all the younger sisters will only be happy about it. How could they be unhappy?" Empress Ning said indifferently. said.

The Queen's words were against her will, and everyone knew it well.Because everyone is the same, no one wants to see the imperial concubine well, if it can kill two lives, that would be the best.

There is no way, Su Wan has become everyone's thorn in the side, thorn in the flesh, and the biggest stumbling block, she has blocked everyone's way to climb up, everyone wants to move her away, and then kick her two feet to vent her anger.

If the imperial concubine did not die, they would have no chance.

Concubine Sun Shu looked around and said, "Why don't you see Your Majesty?" She didn't believe that the emperor would not come, "Is the imperial concubine giving birth? I haven't heard anything yet!"

"The emperor is accompanying the imperial concubine in the delivery room!" Empress Ning said, "As for the imperial concubine, I have not heard any movement, probably the labor has not started yet!"

In the delivery room, Su Wan was already lying on the sitting delivery bed. There were curtains around the delivery bed, and through a curtain that wasn't transparent, she could vaguely see figures pacing back and forth outside the curtain.

Now the pain is getting longer and more frequent, but Su Wan still doesn't cry out, because she is still accumulating strength and doesn't want to consume her strength prematurely, at least she can bear it for now.

Su Wan tried to think of other things to distract herself, which would make the time go faster and make her less painful.

On the way, Su Wan drank sugar porridge again, her whole body relaxed, and she closed her eyes for a while to rest her mind.

"Your Majesty, you haven't had lunch yet, go eat first and then take a rest, giving birth is not so fast!" Su Wan said to Emperor Xian De outside the curtain.

"No, I will stay here with you." Emperor Xian De said stubbornly, even if he left, he would not be at ease, it would be better to see it with his own eyes, so that he would be at ease.Moreover, he hopes to see the child as soon as possible.

Su Wan felt a little helpless, so she could only say: "I'm a little nervous that you are here, you should leave for a while! At least come back after eating."

Emperor Xiande knew that Su Wan was worried about him, so he couldn't help feeling a warm current in his heart, he couldn't bear to reject her intention, and said: "Okay, I'll be back in a while."

Emperor Xian De glanced at Su Wan through the curtain, then turned around and left the delivery room.

Seeing that he finally left, Su Wan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

In this era, men are very taboo to enter the delivery room, feel dirty, and even get bumped, which will be very unlucky in the future.

Liang Hong is the emperor, how honorable, if it is known that he entered the delivery room, he may be used as an excuse again, maybe what happens in the future will be thrown on her head.

She is not afraid of these things, she just does as the Romans do, she would rather believe what is there or not, she naturally hopes that Liang Hong will be fine.

She knew what he meant.

After Emperor Xian De came out of the delivery room, he frowned unobtrusively when he saw the concubines guarding outside.

When Empress Ning and the others saw the emperor coming out, they couldn't hide the joy on their faces, and went forward to pay respects to Emperor Xiande.

"The concubine greets His Majesty!"

"Forget it!" Emperor Xian De wanted to leave after finishing speaking.

"Your Majesty, I wonder how sister Su is doing now?" Empress Ning asked first with a look of concern.

Emperor Xian De took a deep look at her, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, as if there was a trace of sarcasm, but it disappeared quickly, and said lightly: "Don't bother the queen, you won't be of much help if you stay here , maybe it will distract the imperial concubine, so go back!"

After finishing speaking, Emperor Xian De got on the chariot and left.

After Emperor Xiande left, the smiles on the faces of the concubines disappeared in an instant, and all of them looked ugly.

"Empress Empress—" someone shouted unwillingly.

"Okay, since His Majesty has already said so, let's all go back too!" Queen Ning said.

She has not heard the imperial concubine's shout until now, and His Majesty has left again. She must not be able to give birth today, and maybe it will be until tomorrow morning.

Anyway, she was just showing her concern. Now that the etiquette has come, what is she still doing here?She didn't want to blow the cold wind in the yard, and her body couldn't stand it, so it was the same when she went back and waited for news.
