The Empress of the Qing Dynasty is from the Northeast

Tuantuan was treated like a pregnant woman this time, and Caiwei was specifically assigned the task of serving her. She liked small animals by nature, and although she was not good at speaking, she was practical and capable. In order to take good care of Tuantuan, she also learned from Baizhu how to make some nutritious meals, and made them delicious and healthy, keeping Tuantuan's skin smooth and shiny.

Chang Ning couldn't help but admire when he saw it: "Caiwei's cooking skills are really good. Tuantuan has gained two circles of weight and has really become a glutinous rice dumpling this time."

Hongmin and Hongchen also liked Tuantuan very much. They would surround her and feed her whenever they had nothing to do. They also became much nicer towards Caiwei, which made her flattered.

Yuezhi has been racking her brains these past two days. The weather has been cool recently, not as hot as in summer, and the master doesn't use the cooling beads very often. And according to her observation, the master has never liked the smell of smoke or overly strong fragrances. For the sake of pregnancy, she rarely uses incense, and always uses fruits and vegetables to fumigate the house when she has nothing to do.

This gave her inspiration.

Yuezhi has created a spice made from flowers and fruits, which tastes sweet and not greasy, and has a sense of elegance.

When Changning smelled it, he was delighted as expected, and asked her what she used to make it.

Yuezhi said: "My Lord, it is made of litchi shells, dry cypress leaves, jujube pits, pear pits, osmanthus and chrysanthemum."

Chang Ning admired her craftsmanship and ingenuity: "Not bad, not bad. Does this incense have a name?"

"My Lord, this incense is called Shanlin Qiong Sihe."

Changning nodded. She really liked Yuezhi. She had skills, abilities, a down-to-earth personality, and a very high level of perfume making skills. It was like she had a private custom-made high-end perfume expert. It was such a great deal.

As autumn came, it was almost the Golden Award Festival. Changning's belly was getting bigger and bigger. Sometimes it was a bit shocking to look at it. I always felt like there were more than two babies inside. It was even bigger than when she was pregnant with Hongyan Hutuli.

Bai Zhu also felt something was wrong, so he had to ask the doctor in the Bai Mansion to take a look.

Doctor Bai examined her for a long time before saying with some doubt: "It seems that Master Chun is pregnant with more than twins, but we are still unsure how many there are."

When these words came out, Yinzhen was shocked at first. He was worried about Changning's health, so he sent a fast horse to the palace to ask for the imperial physician. He also went to Yonghe Palace and told her about her situation. He did not allow her to attend the Golden Festival, otherwise, she would be pregnant and what would happen if she gave birth in the palace?

Defei was both happy and worried. She asked Yinzhen to take good care of Changning and she would report to the emperor.

However, His Majesty's health is getting worse day by day. He has rarely been lucid recently, but he has kept it a secret from the outside world and even the concubines in the harem rarely see him.

Concubine De sighed. She had been with him for decades, and now, it could be said that everything had come to an end.

The person Yinzhen invited back was the imperial physician Zhou, who was the best gynecologist in the palace. He had a head full of white hair, but his eyes were bright and he looked like a famous doctor.

As soon as he put his hand on her, even Changning became nervous.

After a while, I heard his leisurely voice: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. This is Concubine Chun's third child. Her pulse is strong and powerful. All three children are healthy, but one is slightly small. You can supplement more nutrition, but not too much, otherwise it may not be conducive to delivery. In addition, this will definitely not be a full-term birth, so you can prepare the delivery room."

Knowing that her mistress was pregnant with her third child and was about to give birth, Nanny Zhang came over personally to set up the delivery room for her. Even some of the Hutu people came over several times a day to accompany her.

Every time they saw their mother's bulging belly, they felt frightened.

Hutuli was very worried: "Mother, does your stomach hurt? Are you tired with three brothers and sisters?"

Chang Ning shook his head and ate the snack happily: "It's okay, I just get hungry easily."

Hutuli quickly peeled another pomegranate for her: "Hey, mother, eat more."

Chang Ning just took it, tasted it, and praised: "The pomegranate tree in our mansion is still the best, sweet and juicy."

Hutuli also took one to eat, and agreed: "Yes, it's really sweet. Mom, are we going to make pomegranate wine this year? I think pomegranate wine goes really well with roasted venison."

But she didn't get Chang Ning's answer. When she turned around, she saw her mother holding her stomach and crying in pain. She was scared to death: "Mother! Mother! What's wrong with you?"

Changning felt a warm liquid flowing out of her lower body and knew that her amniotic fluid had broken, but this time the contractions seemed to come earlier than before.

Hutuli followed her gaze and lay down. The hem of her skirt was dripping with water. She was so scared that she whispered, "Oh my God! Mother! Did you wet your pants?"

Chang Ning couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Why are you two the same? I'm about to give birth, hurry up and call someone."

At this time, Chuixue, Zhuiyu and others outside heard the noise and hurried over to help Changning to the delivery room.

Hutuli suppressed her pounding heart. She had to stay calm, as the natural picture required her to take charge.

She first asked Nanny Zhang and others to go see her mother quickly, then asked Zhao Fuhai to guard the yard and not let anyone in. She also called her maid to ask for the court doctor, and ordered the wet nurses and maids to coax the three younger brothers in the yard to the nearby Xinghuachun Pavilion, so that Hongzhao could play with them.

In addition to handling these matters in an orderly manner, she hurried to Jiuzhou Qingyan to invite her father.

Yinzhen was originally discussing the cowpox issue with Changhua, but when he saw Hutuli running towards him, his heart skipped a beat, and he knew that something must have happened to Yaoxian, so he hurried out.

Hutuli didn't even bother to greet him: "Father, my mother is about to give birth!"

Yinzhen rushed out with a whoosh, and Su Peisheng couldn't catch up with him even though he ran as fast as he could.

Changhua was also surprised: "Ning'er is about to give birth? Is it going smoothly?"

Hutuli turned around and was about to follow him. Seeing his uncle, he quickly replied, "I don't know either! I gave my mother a pomegranate, and she gave birth as soon as she ate it. This pomegranate is too scary!"

Changhua was still able to remain calm. Seeing that Hutuli was also frightened, he hurriedly comforted her: "The prince has passed away. Don't be afraid. Just look after your brothers."

Hutuli nodded and said, "Uncle, I'll ask Zhang Qilin and the others to clean up a room. You can go and rest. My mother has given birth. I'll send someone to tell you something."

"Okay." Changhua felt very relieved when he saw his niece handling things in an orderly manner.

But he was still very worried about his sister. He heard that this baby was three children, so he could only pray that everything went well.

When Hutuli returned to the natural painting, Yinzhen was already sitting at the door. Seeing the maids and eunuchs doing their duties in an orderly manner, she felt relieved.

Yinzhen also saw her, beckoned her over, and praised her: "Hutuli did a good job and kept things stable, but your mother is about to give birth. You can't help here, go to Xinghuachun Pavilion and look after the children."

Hutuli wanted to stay here, but he knew it was impossible, so he had to look back every few steps as he walked out of the yard.
