back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 842
At the right time, not only Lu Chengqi was panicked, but the servants and maids were even more anxious, their little faces turned pale, they didn't know what to do.Only Empress Dowager Liu was relatively calm, pushed Lu Chengqi down, and said softly: "Your Majesty, you go out first."

"That's right, Your Majesty, you go out. Someone, close the windows and lock the door, bring hot water in..."

Han Feng'er, who had a big belly, also got up to avoid suspicion, and with Lu Chengqi's support, he slowly left the east chamber.

After a moment of panic, the Empress Dowager Liu immediately calmed down and gave orders in an orderly manner, and the midwives and palace maids responded quickly.In the side hall next to the East Chamber, prepared white skin powder, live sunflower seeds, dark plums, black beans, medicinal silk, scissors, etc. were brought in.

"The hot water is here."

A few court ladies came quickly and entered the east chamber, followed by the sound of windows being locked and doors being locked.From time to time, there were various movements in the hall, and the voices were so noisy that they could not be heard clearly.Lu Chengqi was so anxious that he walked back and forth on the hall corridor, and vaguely heard Zhou Zhiruo's heart-piercing screams, wishing he could kick open the hall door and go in to see what happened.

Han Feng'er was placed in a side hall, and pregnant women could not catch the cold.

"Your Majesty, don't worry..." Gao Hao, who was next to him, kept comforting him: "It will be done soon, and the mother and child will be safe... Before the youngest entered the palace, I also saw the neighbor's childbirth. After all this..."

Lu Chengqi was upset, how could he be in the mood to listen to Gao Hao's nagging?When he was about to stop drinking, there was a squeak, and the palace door opened again, and Zhou Zhiruo's personal servant hurried out, Lu Chengqi was stunned, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and asked, "How is the empress?"

"Your Majesty, don't get in the way, the maid is going to get hot water." The servant said, regardless of whether the person in front of him was the emperor or not, he pushed Lu Chengqi away and hurried away.

Lu Chengqi also knew that the matter was urgent, so he didn't blame it.After returning to his senses, he found that the door of the palace was closed again with a "bang", which was tightly sealed, and he was extremely worried.Seeing the maids in the palace surrounding him again, Lu Chengqi couldn't help scolding angrily: "What are you doing here, why don't you hurry up and help get the hot water."

"Observe the order!" The surrounding maids and servants all responded in unison, scattered like birds and beasts.

After a while, a group of people hurried back, holding seven or eight pots of hot water in their hands. The woman in the hall called for hot water, and the door of the hall was half opened, and the maid handed it in.Lu Chengqi took the opportunity to watch, but unfortunately there was a screen in front of him, so he couldn't see anything, but Zhou Zhiruo's cry of pain could be clearly heard.

Lu Chengqi's forehead was sweating, and he shouted loudly: "Zi Tong, don't be afraid, I'm outside..."

After the maid in the palace came in with hot water, she closed the door and couldn't see anything.

Lu Chengqi was anxious, but he saw seven or eight servants carrying hot water surrounded him, and asked in a hurry: "Your Majesty, where do you put this hot water?"

"Leave it alone, it will be useful later." Lu Chengqi said unhappily, and continued to wander around the door and window.

Giving birth is really a tormenting thing, not just for Zhou Zhiruo, half an hour passed, the palace door opened and closed, closed and opened again, Lu Chengqi's heart seemed to be hanging in the sky for a while, but at the same time he was in a hurry. He fell to the ground sharply, smashed into pieces, as if someone strangled his neck, it was very difficult to breathe, and he almost suffocated.

Time passed by, and the movement in the hall became weaker and weaker. It felt like the sharp sword hanging above his head was about to stab down. Lu Chengqi was pale and sweaty. He couldn't bear this suffocating pressure any longer and was about to break down the door. And enter.

Suddenly, a sharp and high-pitched voice came out through the window, and Lu Chengqi's face changed drastically. He had already clenched his fists and was about to break through the door.Immediately afterwards, there was a loud cry of the baby, echoing in the hall, without stopping for a long time.

"It's born, the empress is born..." A laughing voice came from the hall, Lu Chengqi only felt his feet go weak, and there was no expression on his face, only a deep numbness remained...

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what's the matter with you?" Gao Hao, who was next to him, also heard the voice in the hall, and was about to happily congratulate Lu Chengqi, but found that his body was shaking and was about to fall, so he hurried forward to help him.

Lu Chengqi used his strength to support him, his head felt a little dizzy, his body was weak and weak due to excessive tension, and suddenly thought that it was not time to relax, so he hurriedly said in a trembling voice: "Is Zi Tong okay?"

At this time, the door of the palace opened, and a group of women and maids came out. Zhou Zhiruo's personal servant said: "The Queen Mother let Your Majesty go in..."

Lu Chengqi walked into the hall without saying a word.What he cared most about was not the baby, but what happened to Zhou Zhiruo.

"Zi Tong, Zi Tong..."

Lu Chengqi yelled twice just now, but was reprimanded by the Empress Dowager Liu inside: "What's your name, your Zi Tong is too tired after giving birth, and has closed his eyes to rest."

"It's fine, it's fine." Lu Chengqi took a long breath, wiped off the hot sweat from his head, his eyes wandered, and the swaddle in the hands of the Empress Dowager Liu immediately froze.

An indescribable feeling of being connected by blood spontaneously arose in Lu Chengqi's heart. After watching the crying and crying for a while, the exhausted baby fell asleep at this moment, and Lu Chengqi was momentarily stunned.

"God bless me Dashun, I'm a young man..."

Empress Dowager Liu's words made Lu Chengqi feel like falling into a cloud, and murmured: "Men, Zi Sui..."

Even ordinary people know the importance of the royal son Sui to a dynasty.Even though Lu Chengqi didn't have patriarchal thoughts, being a man at this time meant he had inheritance, and even if he was a reborn person, he was no exception.

At this time, a group of steady ladies, court ladies and servants came forward to congratulate Lu Chengqi, all of them were happy for Lu Chengqi and beaming.Seeing the joy of everyone, Lu Chengqi was also deeply moved, he waved his hand "proudly" and said: "Gao Hao, everyone present will be rewarded!"

You don't need to order, the servants have already wrapped the money in the inner treasury into happy money.After Gao Hao was lifted up, his brows were brimming with joy, his eyes were half-closed, and he took out strings of happy coins and distributed them to everyone.The person who distributed it was happy, and the person who received it was even more joyful, with laughter and harmony.

Lu Chengqi turned a deaf ear to it, and walked slowly to the Empress Dowager, looking at the baby wrapped in thick satin, strange emotions emerged in his heart, very complicated, and before he had time to appreciate it, the Empress Dowager passed her hands lightly, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty , Do you want to hold your child?"

Suddenly there was a feeling of being flattered, but Lu Chengqi knew that he had never held a child in his two lifetimes, he hesitated, and said cautiously: "Is it really possible?"

"Nonsense, you are his father, why can't you." The queen mother smiled and pointed out: "Open your hands, don't hug like this... let go of your hands, move them sideways... By the way, don't use force, and don't be too loose... ..."

Under the guidance of the Empress Dowager Liu, Lu Chengqi held the baby lightly, in a small ball, not much bigger than two palms, as light as fluff, without much weight, but in Lu Chengqi's heart, it was as heavy as a thousand, and he was careful , extremely cautious, lest there be the slightest mistake.
