It would be a lie to say I'm not nervous.
An Lingrong held Baoque and Baoli's hands tightly and moved forward step by step.
In her previous life, An Lingrong became pregnant with the help of drugs, but she never got pregnant.
She was soaked after walking just a few meters.
The skinny nanny followed closely behind. As soon as An Lingrong lay down, she came forward and wanted to take off her underwear for inspection.
"Mammy, my chest hurts. Please come and take a look."
Baoque and Baoli intentionally or unintentionally blocked the plump nanny behind them, preventing her from getting close to the bed.
An Lingrong's request was just a common one. The nanny who had just put her hand on her underwear didn't think much about it. She walked forward a few steps, lifted up her underwear, and bent down to check her chest.
As she moved closer, An Lingrong, with her nose twitching, smelled an indescribable light scent, mixed with a hint of spiciness and saltiness.
When a concubine in the palace gave birth, a midwife would move in a month in advance, and the most basic requirement was that no incense or sharp objects were allowed.
She carefully identified it and confirmed that it was Xuejie, a medicine that promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis.
It would take at least two or three hours for an ordinary concubine to give birth to her first child.
If you smell it for a long time, it can easily lead to miscarriage.
An Lingrong felt a chill in her heart. There were three outsiders in the delivery room, two of whom wanted to kill her and her child, and there was also Yanruo, whose purpose was unknown, who was watching them covetously.
She scratched Baoque's palm three times and gave soft instructions.
"Bao Que, Mammy and the aunts have worked hard. Please ask Bao Ge to bring in a few bowls of mung bean soup in a cypress ice basin."
Food placed in the ice jar can cool down quickly. This was a reward from the emperor some time ago.
The skinny nanny quickly checked An Lingrong's lower body and said that her cervix had not yet fully opened and she needed to wait for some time.
She thought to herself that Concubine Yu was indeed favored, even possessing the rare Ice Mirror. No wonder...
The delivery room was drafty, and the people inside were already sweating profusely.
As soon as Bao Ge brought in the mung bean soup, the three of them thanked him and started drinking it up with gulps.
An Lingrong was afraid that they didn't have enough to drink, so she thoughtfully asked Baoge to add more mung bean soup twice.
When the two maids finished their mung bean soup and put down their bowls, they glanced at each other inadvertently and sat back in their corners.
Although Concubine Yu is kind, the lives of the whole family are in the hands of others, and they have to obey orders.
Perhaps because they had done something wrong, the two maids felt a tightness in their chests.
An Lingrong, who was in great pain, accidentally saw Baoge's face behind the door curtain. She struggled to raise her hand, which was trembling with pain, and wiped the sweat from her face.
"Master, if you want to wipe your sweat, just ask me, there's no need for you to do it yourself."
Aunt Yanruo, who had been staring at An Lingrong, quickly stepped forward and gently wiped her wet hair.
An Lingrong tightly grasped the corner of Yanruo's clothes and stared into her eyes, begging weakly.
"I entrust myself and my child to my aunt."
Her child is about to be born, and she cannot keep such a scheming person around under any circumstances.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. I will definitely live up to the Emperor's trust."
Yanruo bowed and made her promise.
"Concubine Hua is here!"
An Lingrong, who was numb from the pain, heard the singing outside and also shouted.
"what!!!"
"Bao Ge, my stomach hurts."
When An Lingrong called out, two midwives hurried forward and together with Yanruo, who was standing at the head of the bed, blocked out the light completely.
Seeing this, she screamed even louder.
Not only did the three people in front of the bed feel dizzy, but even Concubine Hua who had just entered the room was startled.
She stared at Songzhi with wide eyes and asked stutteringly.
"Does giving birth...give birth...hurt so much?"
Songzhi spoke uncertainly, "When Concubine Cao gave birth to Princess Wen Yi, she also called out... (a few words)"
Before she finished the next two words, Bao Ge knelt down in front of Concubine Hua with a plop.
"Please, Madam Hua, save me!"
"Bao Ge, please stand up and talk."
Concubine Hua pulled Baoge up and left with her men.
"The Queen just sent out a call for help. The midwife and aunt in the delivery room are very..."
Hua Fei, who had already decided to save An Lingrong and the dragon fetus, strode towards the delivery room and lifted the heavy curtain before she finished speaking.
From her perspective, she saw three elderly palace maids fiercely holding down the frail Concubine Yu, while Baoque and Baoli were anxiously pulling at the three of them.
An Lingrong noticed the change in light in the room, and immediately saw Concubine Hua with an anxious look on her face.
She yelled immediately.
"Empress Hua, help me! There is a wicked slave trying to harm me."
Yanruo and others who were holding down Concubine Yu to prevent her from struggling had not yet reacted when a huge force attacked them from behind.
The three of them fell heavily to the ground, and were then tied up in a corner by Baoque, Baoli and Songzhi who followed them.
Yanruo is still confused. Why is there a rope in the delivery room?
Before she could figure it out, she was thrown out of the delivery room by two burly old women.
"Xiao Linzi, these three people have evil intentions and want to murder the Empress. Lock them up first and wait for the Emperor's decision."
Baoque gave the order with red eyes and ran back to the delivery room.
As soon as she lifted the curtain, she saw Concubine Hua pinching her master's face and shouting loudly.
"An Lingrong, don't sleep!"
"I have brought a midwife with me, who will ensure that you and the dragon fetus are safe."
After playing the piano for a while, An Lingrong was exhausted. She looked at the tears falling on Concubine Hua's face and felt a little sorry for her.
"Empress Hua, thank you very much."
An Lingrong thanked him sincerely.
She knew that Concubine Hua was trying to protect the dragon fetus in order to compete with the Queen, but in the end she still took advantage of her.
"You're welcome to have a baby. The midwives I brought with me are all from the Nian family and won't harm you."
Concubine Hua was not used to An Lingrong's thanks, and explained awkwardly.
It’s a bit sad to say that the midwife from the Nian family had been with her for many years, but she never had the chance to use her.
She took off the armor on her right hand and gently patted An Lingrong's hand.
"Just rest assured and give birth. I'll be guarding outside for you."
An Lingrong shook Hua Fei's sweaty hand and forced a pale smile.
"Your smile is so ugly, please stop smiling."
After Hua Fei said this, she walked outside.
Songzhi smiled apologetically and followed behind.
After receiving Hua Fei's assurance, An Lingrong lay on the bed with peace of mind to gather her strength.
After the experienced nanny examined An Lingrong, she gave instructions with a serious face.
"Giving birth requires a lot of effort for a woman. Go and bring a bowl of food to Concubine Yu."
Baoli took the order and left. Not long after, Baoge, carrying chicken noodle soup, passed by the emperor and the empresses.
Seeing this, the queen stood up worriedly.
"Your Majesty, I'm worried that Concubine Yu will have a difficult childbirth, so I brought a hundred-year-old ginseng. Could you please have it brewed for Concubine Yu to drink?"
"The Queen is interested."
The Emperor had just heard Concubine Yu's cries from two miles away, so there was no reason for him to refuse.
