The midwives were all invited by Concubine Wende, so naturally her interests came first.

Concubine Wende asked them to pull out the little prince's hands and feet. Without even washing their hands, they reached directly into Madam Ying's birth canal and pulled out the little prince's hands and feet.

Even so, they didn't dare to use too much force, for fear of hurting the little prince, which would be bad.

"Wow!"

Along with the sound of a baby crying, the midwife's laughter also floated out.

"It's born, it's born, Madam Ying gave birth to a little prince."

After the ordeal, the little prince was a little weak, but it was not a big problem. However, Madam Ying was seriously injured and was breathing out more than inhaling.

Seeing this, Yu Teng didn't bother to make any more comments.

If she continues to leave Madam Ying like this, she will die in two or three days. It would be a pity for her to have blood on her hands.

"Congratulations, Madam Ying has given birth to a little prince. Madam Ying will have someone to rely on in the future."

"Thank you for your hard work. How is Qingning Palace doing? Did Yun Zhining give birth to the baby?"

"It seems not yet."

Concubine Wende glanced at the clepsydra on the table and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"It will be midnight in less than half an hour. I have won this round after all."

"Hahaha!"

"Yun Zhining, you can't beat me, you can't beat me!"

"Boom!"

The gong for midnight struck, and Concubine Wende finally breathed a sigh of relief. She asked someone to take the little prince down and take good care of him, and also to deal with Madam Ying's side. She must not let what happened today get out.

Perhaps she was too excited. Even after taking a shower, changing clothes and lying in bed, Concubine Wende still couldn't fall asleep.

Just as she tossed and turned, there was an urgent knock on the door.

She was in a good mood today and didn't bother with the people below her.

"Who?"

"My lady, it's me, Yu Teng."

"The people we arranged in Qingning Palace sent news that Mingyuerong had given birth to the fourth prince more than an hour ago, but the fourth prince did not cry after he was born, so people outside did not know."

"Just after midnight, Ming Yuerong gave birth to another little princess. The two children cried together, and the emperor realized that Ming Yuerong was pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl."

"What did you say?"

Concubine Wende immediately rushed out and grabbed Yu Teng by the collar, her eyes bloodshot.

"Is Yun Zhining really pregnant with twins?"

"It's true."

"The child in her belly was born earlier than Ying's child?"

Yu Teng nodded reluctantly.

"One more thing."

"The third day of the second month is the birthday of Empress Dowager Xiaoyan's mother. Moreover, the little princess Mingyuerong gave birth to looks exactly like Empress Dowager Xiaoyan's mother."

"Boom!"

Concubine Wende's knees went weak and she fell to the ground, tears streaming down her face.

"why?"

"Oh my God, why are you so partial to Yun Zhining? Why is that?"

Yu Teng fell from heaven to hell in an instant and was completely devastated, but she still had to comfort her master.

There are still many days to come, and the master cannot give up, otherwise all their previous efforts will be in vain.

Can't admit defeat.

Never give up!

In Yongshou Palace, Concubine Wende and Yu Teng hugged each other and cried bitterly. In Qingning Palace, the Queen and others were not in a good mood when they saw that Yun Zhining had given birth to two more children.

The Queen was in an even worse mood this time.

Last time, she knew early on that Yun Zhining was pregnant with a princess, so she didn't feel jealous at all. She just hoped that Yun Zhining could give birth to the child safely to prove that she was a good manager and avoid criticism from the royal family.

Also, the last time Yun Zhining gave birth, the situation was so dangerous, but the emperor didn't come to watch in person.

This time, as soon as he heard that Yun Zhining had given birth, he dropped everything he was doing and ran over, waiting outside for nearly a day.

Even Empress Dowager Xiaoyan and Empress Dowager Xiaoci rushed over without stopping when they heard that Yun Zhining had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl.

Upon learning that the third princess was born on the same day and month as her mother and looked very much like her mother, Empress Dowager Xiaoyan even thought that she was her mother's reincarnation. She praised Yun Zhining highly, and the queen was almost jealous to death.

"Well, it's getting late. Since Ming Yuerong has given birth safely, you should go back and rest."

"Queen, you have been here for most of the day. Tomorrow, cancel the morning and evening visits. Take a good rest for a day and recuperate."

Finally, Qi Yejing added one more sentence.

"It is because of your good management of the palace that I can have so many children. Don't worry, no matter how favored they are, they can never surpass you."

"In my heart, you will always be my wife and the legitimate mother of these children. They will all be respectful to you in the future. If anyone dares to disrespect you, I will never forgive him."

The queen's jealousy was instantly extinguished.

Yes, no matter how many children Yun Zhining gives birth to, she will never be better than herself.

Even if her son ascends the throne and becomes emperor in the future, he still has to respectfully address her as mother, and her status will never be higher than his.

Just like Empress Dowager Xiaoci’s status will never be higher than that of Empress Dowager Xiaoyan.

If that's the case, what else does she have to fear?

As long as she holds the throne of queen, no one can surpass her.

The queen bowed slightly, a faint smile on her lips.

"I am the mistress of the harem. I should take care of the affairs of the harem, relieve the emperor of his worries, take good care of all the children, and let them grow up safely and healthily. I do not deserve the emperor's praise."

"I have always been clear about rewards and punishments. I will reward those who have made contributions and punish those who have made mistakes. Queen, you have done a good job, so I have to praise you. If you have not done a good job, I will naturally not let you off easily."

"Of course, there is also an advantage to doing this, which is that it allows others to see their true identity."

"The queen is the queen. As long as she is alive, no one can surpass her."

The concubines spoke out one after another, promising that they would never overstep their authority.

Qi Yejing then nodded with satisfaction.

"Hey, where's Concubine Wende? Why isn't she here?"

"Ming Yuerong just gave birth, and Concubine Wende sent someone to deliver the news, saying that Madam Ying also gave birth. She is busy taking care of Madam Ying and cannot spare time. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Qi Yejing frowned.

Although Ying and Aning were found to be pregnant on the same day, their pregnancy periods were different. How come Aning just started labor while Ying's went into labor?

Could it be that Concubine Wende did something about this?

"Dong Ling, what day was yesterday?"

"In reply to the emperor, yesterday was February 2, the day when the dragon raises its head."

February 2nd is the day when the dragon raises its head, and it is the most auspicious day of the year.

On such a beautiful day, Concubine Wende would definitely not be willing to let Aning monopolize it all.

Ying gave birth prematurely, so her hand must have been in it.

She is becoming more and more daring. First, she harmed Aning, then Ying. Will she harm the Queen and the two Queens Dowagers next? If he adopts Ying's child under her name, will she attack him again when the child grows up?
