The princess returns strongly, and the divorced regent is busy chasing his wife

The emperor paced anxiously outside the palace, his face full of worry and tension.

After hearing the midwife's report, the emperor's face instantly turned gloomy.

His eyes widened and he shouted angrily, "You useless imperial doctors and midwives have put Concubine Xian in such danger. If anything happens to Concubine Xian and the baby in her belly, I will never let her off easily."

His voice echoed in the palace, chilling people.

The imperial doctors and midwives were so frightened that they trembled all over. They knelt on the ground and kowtowed to apologize: "Your Majesty, please calm down. We will do our best, but the virtuous concubine has given birth prematurely, and the situation is indeed very difficult."

The emperor was furious. He pointed at the imperial doctors and midwives and shouted, "If anything happens to my concubine and the crown prince, you and your families will be buried with them!"

After saying that, he turned around, waved his sleeves vigorously, and walked towards the delivery room.

One of the midwives risked being beheaded and rushed forward to stop it.

"Your Majesty, the delivery room is a filthy place, you cannot go in!"

"I don't care! I want to go in and see Concubine Xian!" The emperor widened his eyes, with a hint of determination in his voice.

"Your Majesty, you are of noble status, you cannot take this risk!" another maid also hurriedly advised.

However, the emperor was determined. He pushed the maids away and rushed towards the door of the delivery room.

Just as he was about to rush in, an elderly nun stretched out her arms and hugged him tightly.

"Your Majesty, you will disturb Her Majesty by doing this! Please believe us, we will do our best to ensure the safety of Her Majesty and the child!" said the nanny with tears streaming down her face.

The emperor stopped, his body trembling slightly, his eyes full of pain and helplessness.

He knew that the maids were doing this for his and Concubine Xian's own good, but he couldn't calm down.

He could only pray silently outside the door, hoping that the virtuous concubine could survive this disaster safely.

The delivery room was filled with a tense atmosphere. Concubine Xian was lying on the delivery bed, her face pale, her forehead and clothes soaked with sweat. She tightly grasped the railing beside the bed, using all her strength, and every contraction made her face distorted.

The midwives and palace maids were busy at the side, some carrying hot water, and some preparing various delivery tools.

The midwives looked solemn and kept encouraging Concubine Xian, telling her to persevere.

The virtuous concubine's moans and gasps echoed in the delivery room, and her eyes revealed pain and despair.

But she still gritted her teeth and persisted, using up her last bit of strength for the baby in her belly.

As time went by, Concubine Xian's physical strength gradually declined, but her motherly love prevented her from giving up.

Finally, after a burst of severe pain, the baby's cry was heard in the delivery room.

When the imperial physician and the midwife heard the baby's cry, they looked at each other, finally took a deep breath, and smiled with relief and joy on their faces.

"Their lives and the lives of their entire clan were finally saved."

Then there was another cry, and the second child was born safely. Everyone in the room finally put their hearts at ease.

The virtuous concubine also felt relieved and a relieved smile appeared on her face, but then she fainted due to overwork.

The imperial doctors quickly performed rescue operations and she slowly came to mind. The palace maids also hurriedly took care of the newborn baby.

The entire delivery room was filled with tension and busyness, and Concubine Xian's tenacity and maternal love were fully displayed at this moment.

"Your Majesty...The Concubine Xian and her child are safe."

The midwife held the two children for the emperor to see.

The emperor couldn't wait to take the children. Looking at their tender faces, his heart was filled with joy and emotion.

The emperor walked into the delivery room and saw Concubine Xian lying weakly on the bed. Her face was pale, but her eyes were full of maternal love.

She used up her last bit of strength and gave the emperor a relieved smile.

The emperor caressed Concubine Xian's face lovingly and said softly, "You have worked hard. I will love our child well."

The virtuous concubine was exhausted and fainted again.

The emperor called the imperial physician with a nervous look on his face.

"Imperial Physician... Can you please come and see what happened to Concubine Xian?"

When the imperial physician heard the emperor's order, he hurried forward and half-knelt in front of Concubine Xian to take her pulse.

After half a cup of tea, the imperial physician withdrew his fingers from Concubine Xian's wrist.

"In reply to the emperor, the virtuous concubine is fine for now. She just fainted due to overwork. She will wake up after a short rest."

"Okay... Imperial Physician... Nanny... Everyone who serves in Concubine Xian's palace will be rewarded."

"Thank you, Your Majesty"

Everyone knelt down and kowtowed to express their gratitude.

The emperor finally felt relieved.

The emperor looked at the woman on the bed, his heart filled with joy. At this moment he felt that the woman truly belonged to him.

Now that they have a child, the woman can't remember what happened before. They will definitely be able to live happily together as a family in the future.

"Someone is coming..."

"What does the emperor want?" The eunuch at the door smiled with wrinkles on his face and knelt on the ground waiting for the emperor's order.

"Pass on my decree, promote Consort Xian to Empress of the Central Palace, and the little prince to Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace. The ceremony will be held together with the little prince's full-month banquet."

"Yes"

The chief eunuch went forward excitedly to convey the order.

The emperor arranged everything and looked at the child again, his heart filled with joy beyond words.

Even if the child is not his own, as long as it is born to the woman he loves most, he will definitely treat the child as his own.

"Your Majesty, there are a group of ministers in the Imperial Study, waiting for you to discuss state affairs."

The old eunuch who came back with the imperial eunuch reminded him.

"Okay... I'll go right away."

"You must serve the virtuous concubine well and never neglect her."

"Yes"

The emperor walked to Concubine Xian's bed and tucked the corner of the quilt for her before leaving with satisfaction.

The woman on the bed, when no one was paying attention, had two tears falling from the corners of her eyes.

When the emperor walked out of the gate of Ci'an Palace, the chief eunuch looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he stepped forward and blocked the emperor's way.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report."

The emperor's face turned cold instantly, and his majesty as an emperor was unmistakable even without him getting angry.

"Say it"

"Your Majesty is the Imperial Concubine. The Imperial Concubine has been killed by the Regent of Northern Qi. The Regent of Northern Qi has also left the palace under the protection of his two secret guards."

"Well... OK, that Nangong Mingxuan, I really underestimated him"

There was a fierce gleam in the emperor's eyes.

"Send the imperial guards to search the entire city. We must drive them out of Dayu's territory. Only then can I rest assured."

"Yes..."

"I will go and pass on the order."

"And that woman, find a place to bury her."

"Yes"

The chief eunuch bowed and stepped back to carry out the imperial order.

The emperor walked towards the imperial study.

A villa on the outskirts of Dayu Imperial City.

Feng Xing and Wu Shang brought back the unconscious Nangong Mingxuan.

"Master Jun... come and take a look, what happened to our master?"

Jun Sa hurried forward to check, and after a moment, Jun Sa withdrew his finger.

"What's wrong? Is it Master? ..."

Wushang asked Jun Sa in horror.
