The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 456 The Grand Finale (10)
As soon as the words fell, Xu Si'an saw an old man with a white beard surrounded by everyone coming in from the door of Chuihua.He hurried up to greet him, seeing that Doctor Du was already out of breath from running, and after seeing Xu Si'an, he also took a break not long after he came and said, "Take this old man to see how Madam is doing now? The emperor has an order saying that if this old man I can't keep my wife, mother and child safe, I want this old man to come and see you!"

Xu Si'an was a little embarrassed when he heard this, but he quickly led Doctor Du in.Inside, Zhao Jing experienced two more labor pains, covered in sweat, and lay limp under the quilt.

Seeing her like this, Xu Si'an felt a little distressed, so some old mothers came over, pushed him outside and said, "Master Hou, this delivery room is not clean, Master Hou should wait outside."

Zhao Jing opened her eyes to look at Xu Si'an, and stretched out her hand. The man just pushed the two old mothers away, stepped forward and knelt on her bedside, held her hand and said, "Don't be afraid." , I am here for everything!"

Zhao Jing blinked, and when the labor pain came, she held Xu Si'an's hand tightly. Although the nails were trimmed beforehand, they still pinched into the flesh, leaving deep nail marks.

"Madam's cervix has been dilated to eighth, but the birth canal has not fully softened. The old man brought birth-saving life-saving pills from the palace, and let Madam take it first."

After hearing the words, everyone hurriedly poured tea and brought it up. Xu Si'an personally hugged Zhao Jing and got up, feeding her medicine.

Wen Po told the servants to bring in some hot water again, and everyone in the delivery room was worried, and no one would leave.Zhao Jing felt pain again shortly after taking the medicine, Mrs. Wen hugged her belly and rubbed her belly for a while, her forehead was covered with fine sweat, she looked at Xu Si'an in horror and said: "Master Hou, madam can't do it. Strength, it's not good to go on like this!"

The Imperial Physician Du at the side was also sweating profusely, took out the acupuncture from the medicine box, frowned and said, "It would be great if the Imperial Physician Fan from the Imperial Hospital was here. He is most proficient in women's childbirth and puerperium. The empress had a difficult delivery, he was the one who saved it, but it's a pity that he resigned later."

Zhao Jing yelled twice more, but there was no sound at all, Xu Si'an hugged her body anxiously and yelled, the general who was always invincible was also frightened and lost his mind.

Just at this time, a little maid came in from outside and said: "Master Hou, Chang Geng came back from the south and brought a monk back."

"Bring a monk back?" Xu Si'an frowned a little and thought about it, let go of Zhao Jing in his arms, got up and walked outside.

Chang Geng was already waiting outside the door, and when he saw Xu Si'an coming out, he stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the matter has been settled, and your lord is safe in the south." A monk in robes was standing under the sycamore tree in the courtyard, "My lord said, this is Imperial Physician Fan, let me take him back to Beijing, please be kind and entertained by Lord Hou."

When Xu Si'an heard this, he ran out like flying, hurriedly walked up to the man, bowed and said: "Great master, Zhuo Jing is in labor at this time, and has been in pain for a day and a night, please come in and have a look, master."

There was a palm-sized scar on one side of the monk's face. After hearing this, he turned his head, glanced at Xu Si'an, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, what did you say that you brought the old monk out for a tour of the mountains and rivers? I asked the old monk to come. On a medical visit!"

Xu Si'an was a little ashamed when he heard the words, and Zhao Jing cried out in pain again, the monk heard it, then brushed off his Taoist robe, turned to look at Xu Si'an and said: "Since I want to see a doctor, please ask Lord Hou to lead the way!"

The sky outside had gradually darkened, and finally the east wing room became quiet.After a busy day and night, the maids and mothers-in-law were also tired, some lying on the kang, some crooked on the pedals, and some even straightened up and fell asleep on the outer kang. Xu Si'an was the only one who was still guarding the bed, looking at Zhao Jing on the bed and the pair of pink twins on the side, he couldn't help but smirked.

Zhao Jing slept for a long time, but it was rare to wake up for a moment, and saw him smiling like this. She just lowered her eyebrows and glanced at the pair of twins beside her. He was dreaming of something happy, wrinkled his nose, and looked like he was smiling.Zhao Jing's heart suddenly softened a little, and she said angrily, "What are you giggling about?"

Xu Si'an raised his head upon hearing this, and looked at Zhao Jing who was lying in the brocade quilt.She looks extremely haggard with her messy hairpin and temples, but in Xu Si'an's heart she is the most beautiful.

"I laughed at my wife's ability, she added two children to the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion at once." Xu Si'an said as he stretched out his hand to gently comb Zhao Jing's black hair, lowered his head, and leaned into her ear and said: " I have something to tell you."

Seeing that he was suddenly so serious, Zhao Jing cheered up and said lazily: "Then just tell me, I want to hear, what else are you hiding from me?"

Xu Si'an pursed his thin lips, stroked Zhao Jing's cheek with his thumb, and said slowly: "The emperor couldn't bear to kill the prince, so he asked me to find a substitute. The prince has been ordained ordained in Qixia Temple."

Zhao Jing froze for a moment when she heard the words, her tired body seemed to have completely relaxed, her expression was very calm, she just closed her eyes and said, "Have you finished? I'm going to sleep after I'm done, I'm tired."
