Farmhouse Golden Phoenix

Chapter 172

Tao Ranju was in a hurry, Eunuch Qian saw that he couldn't help him, so he simply ran to the outer courtyard, took a horse from the stable, and went directly to the gate of the palace.It wasn't long before the morning court started, and Eunuch Qian was just the steward of the inner courtyard of the palace, so when he reached the gate of the palace, he could only wander outside.

There was still a guard who saw that he took a long time to circle around, so he couldn't help but came over and asked: "My father-in-law, which mansion are you from? But what's important? If you want to enter the palace, But you have to pass the sign."

Eunuch Qian nodded quickly: "I know. I belong to Prince Ning's Mansion. There are some things in the mansion. I want to see Prince Ning earlier, so I waited here and did not enter the palace. Thank you, brother guard."

"No problem, but if you're waiting, it's best to change the place. It's not right to have people circling around the gate of the palace. Can you wait over there?" The guard pointed at a corner of the wall. , However, it happens to be able to see this side, and the location is not bad.

Eunuch Qian said goodbye to the guard with gratitude, turned around and squatted in the corner.From time to time, he had to poke his head and look this way. Seeing that the guards had changed shifts and no one had come out of the palace, Eunuch Qian became a little anxious.

Although he himself is a eunuch, he has heard a lot about women giving birth to children. Well, the whole world knows that it is dangerous for women to give birth. His princess doesn't look like a strong body , in case this is...

Nonsence!Eunuch Qian spat and patted his cheek. It is said that when a woman gives birth, it will be much better if someone is around to encourage her.When he came here by himself, he had already sent someone to the Su Mansion to notify him.

However, the closest relationship with the princess is his own prince.Moreover, the child that the concubine is giving birth to is the first child of her lord. At such a time, shouldn't the lord be present?

I don't know when the morning court will end. If the prince rushes back and the princess just gives birth, wouldn't it be a pity for the prince?The prince has said more than once that he wants to watch the birth of the child himself.

Eunuch Qian was very hesitant here, and the two guards over there began to discuss: "Earlier, this eunuch said it was nothing serious, but looking at him like that, he seems to be very anxious. Maybe something really happened in Prince Ning's Mansion?" ?”

"We don't care about this. People say it's all right. Can we find someone to report to the palace? Besides, it's really the morning court right now. The emperor has always been wise. If the morning court is interrupted, here's another There is nothing important, so don't we have nothing to do?"

"That's right." The guard nodded and didn't care about it anymore.

Eunuch Qian wandered around outside the palace several times, hesitated for half an hour, and still hadn't made up his mind.Just as he was about to count a brick, he went in to report the odd number, and waited here for the even number, when he saw someone coming out from the gate of the palace.

Eunuch Qian hurriedly stretched his neck to look. Seeing that the person who came out was wearing official robes, he knew that the morning court should be over.Now he didn't have to be embarrassed, he rushed to the gate of the palace immediately, staring hard with his eyes wide open.

After finally seeing his prince from a long line of people, he rushed over quickly: "My lord, hurry up, my concubine..."

He only said these few words, and Shen Junxiu became anxious: "The princess? Did the princess fall?"

Eunuch Qian couldn't help but twitched his cheeks, lord, can't you hope that the princess will be better?While thinking, she waved her hands: "My lord, don't worry, the concubine is about to give birth. I have invited the imperial doctor and Mrs. Wen to go there, and I am at the mansion right now. You should go back quickly."

Shen Junxiu was stunned for a while, and then asked in disbelief: "You said, the princess is going to give birth?"

"Yeah, the birth started an hour ago, please hurry up, my lord." Eunuch Qian saluted and said, Shen Junxiu laughed out loud, no matter who was standing beside him, he didn't even say hello, just followed Eunuch Qian ran out, and when he reached the place where the carriage and horses were kept, he ignored the carriage and the driver, got on the horse by himself, and rushed back to the palace.

Looking at Shen Junxiu's figure behind, the Fifth Prince couldn't help shaking his head and sighing: "Fourth brother is too anxious, isn't it just a woman's family who has a baby? Fourth sister-in-law's natal family is still in the capital, so there is no need to be so flustered?"

The seventh prince next to him smiled and said: "Fourth brother is understandably anxious. This year, fourth brother is 24, right? Even if the tenth brother has a son, the fourth brother only has one child. I don't know if it is a boy or a girl. Can you not be in a hurry? Let's go, fifth brother, let's go to the fourth brother's house to have a look."

The sixth prince sneered: "What's so interesting about a woman having a baby? Let me tell you, it's better for us brothers to go to Taibaiju for a drink. The father gave me the errand in Yangzhou today. The fifth brother was going there before." Those who have passed Yangzhou, my younger brother is planning to ask Fifth Brother for advice."

The Seventh Prince curled his lips: "What can I ask for advice? Fifth brother is not going to work on the salt tax anymore. If you can't beat it, you should find someone else."

The fifth prince patted the seventh prince on the shoulder, smiled and shook his head: "Seventh brother, you can't talk to your sixth brother like this. Although the two errands have nothing to do with each other, they are both going to Yangzhou. I think the sixth brother wants to ask about Yangzhou. situation?"

The sixth prince glanced at the seventh prince and nodded slightly. The fifth prince smiled and said, "I know something about this. Didn't the sixth brother say that he wants to go to Taibai Residence? Let's go now."

While talking, I saw the eleventh prince coming out, the sixth prince hurriedly called the eleventh prince, and the four of them went to Taibai Residence.

The Ninth Prince looked at the backs of several people from behind, squinted his eyes and sneered, and turned his head to look at the Third Prince: "Third Brother, Fourth Brother is going to have a son, don't you plan to go and see?"

The third prince looked at him suspiciously: "It's your fourth sister-in-law who wants to have a baby, not your fourth brother. What can I do in the past? If you are fine, you can go to the palace to accompany mother and concubine. I entered the palace yesterday. The concubine also said that you haven't been there for several days."

After finishing speaking, he got on his horse and left the Ninth Prince with a back view.The Ninth Prince's expression changed, and he muttered in a low voice: "What are you showing off? It doesn't matter how many times you have entered the palace. Doesn't the mother and concubine still only like me?"

Somewhat angrily, he spit in the direction where the third prince left, and the ninth prince turned around and entered the palace again.When everyone was almost gone, a person came out from the corner next to him, tapped a fan on his palm, and sighed: "Hey, don't worry if you have more brothers."

These things that happened at the gate of the palace were soon sent to the emperor's imperial book case.The emperor glanced at it twice, then threw it aside casually, after a while, he remembered something, quickly opened it and looked at it again: "Liang Quan, the fourth concubine is about to give birth?"

A eunuch next to him hurried forward: "I have heard about the words of the emperor. The housekeeper of the inner courtyard of Prince Ning's mansion was waiting at the gate of the palace early this morning. He said that Princess Ning was about to give birth. This is more than one It's time, it should be born soon."

The emperor was a little excited immediately: "Really? This woman is all arranged?"

Liang Quan nodded with a smile: "According to the emperor's wishes, the arrangement has been made long ago. It is very reliable and will definitely keep Princess Ning and the young prince safe. Don't worry, your majesty. I think we will have news in a while. "

The emperor nodded slightly, but he couldn't sit still, and he had to look at the hourglass in a while.Liang Quan next to him was anxious for him, and from time to time went outside the door to call the two little eunuchs to ask about the situation.

Not only the emperor was anxious, Shen Junxiu, the father of the child, was even more anxious. When he got off his horse in the mansion, he almost fell off. Fortunately, the guard next to him was quick to support him: "My lord, be careful!"

Shen Junxiu could only nod his head, and rushed to Tao Ranju like the wind.As soon as she entered, she heard Su Qinghe screaming in the delivery room, but she didn't scare Shen Junxiu to the ground, grabbed someone and asked, "How is the princess?"

Without waiting for an answer, he rushed to the door of the delivery room in two or three steps, raised his leg and was about to kick it away.Then his arm was grabbed by someone: "My lord, you can't go in, you can sit down quickly, Xiao He is fine, the first child will have to hurt for a day or two, Xiao He only hurts for an hour, just Wanting to give birth is much smoother than others."

As soon as the words fell, Su Qinghe screamed again, and Shen Junxiu's anxious eyes turned red: "Is this going well?"

The man nodded quickly: "Yeah, you are a big man. You don't understand the matter of giving birth. The mother of the princess is already in there. If something really happens, you will definitely come out and call the imperial doctor. Don't worry too much. "

As soon as Shen Junxiu turned his head, he saw the imperial doctor standing beside him, and hurried over to ask, "Is the imperial concubine alright?"

"Don't worry, my lord, women give birth like this." The imperial doctor said calmly, stroking his beard. Shen Junxiu frowned and looked to the side. Sitting next to him was the third concubine. He met Shen Junxiu's gaze and nodded quickly: "Fourth Brother, don't worry, what the imperial doctor said is right, you just have to wait with peace of mind."

Su Qinghe's two sister-in-laws never had children, so they can't come here today.The third concubine, Su Qinglan, and Fifth Aunt Su were sitting in the courtyard. It was Grandma Su who was pulling Shen Junxiu's arm just now. Fortunately, Shen Junxiu didn't go crazy and threw Grandma Su out.

"Grandma, I'm really sorry, I didn't see it clearly just now..." Shen Junxiu said embarrassedly, and Grandma Su waved her hand: "I know that you two have a good relationship, but you are a big man, and it is not good for anyone to enter the delivery room. If you're worried, talk to Xiao He at the window or something."

Shen Junxiu nodded, but he couldn't sit still, so he kept walking in circles in the yard, and when he heard Su Qinghe calling from inside, he quickly followed suit: "Xiao He, don't be afraid, I'm right outside."

It's just these two sentences over and over again, but Su Qinghe in it doesn't care.She just felt that hearing Shen Junxiu's voice made her feel at ease.Next to her, Mrs. Su Zhang grabbed her hand and said in a low voice, "Xiao He, work hard, hurry up, the birth canal is opened, and the baby will come out in a while."

Su Qinghe was sweating all over his head, he felt that his body was about to be torn in half, his eyes were a little black, and hearing Shen Junxiu shouting outside, Su Qinghe gritted his teeth and took a deep breath—damn, it's come to this point, If the child can't be born, or if the child is born but disappears, wouldn't it be a big loss?This kind of palace, could it be possible that a child without a mother can still live?Or, can a childless woman be favored forever?
That is completely dreaming, people cannot live in dreams.For the high-quality and good men outside, for the bright and beautiful life in the future, why can't I vent this breath, can I?What's more, I haven't reached that point yet. Didn't I hear Mrs. Wen say that my pregnancy went well?There is not even a dystocia, how can the child not be born?

Thinking about it, I suppressed that breath, and then I heard her mother shouting from the side: "Oh, hurry up, I saw the child's head, Xiaohe, try harder, come on, breathe in!"

Su Qinghe took a breath, just opened his mouth a little, when something was stuffed into his mouth, it was ginseng slices, Su Qinghe chewed it twice, and then continued to exert force.I just repeated this process, and I don't know how long it took. When I exerted strength again, I felt something flow out from the body along the bottom, and then I heard Granny Wen shout: "Oh, the child is out! Come on, come on!" Scissors!"

Su Qinghe was overjoyed, she didn't have any strength at first, but now she was able to develop half strength, and looked hard at the bedside: "Is the child okay? Boy or girl?"
