A Crossover of Film and Television: Miao Miao's Life Transmigration

When they arrived at Lanyou Courtyard, everyone was already there. Yixiu and Nian Shilan were sitting at the head of the table. When they saw her arrive, they glanced at her.

"Princess Su has arrived, please take a seat," Yixiu said to Jianqiu.

A maidservant carried a chair for Su Yunyi to sit down.

Su Yunyi observed that Nian Shilan's condition was not good; she had lost a lot of weight, and even the flesh on her face had disappeared.

Screams of pain echoed from the delivery room, sounding rather terrifying. Nian Shilan, Guo Gege, and Fei Yunyan all turned pale with fright.

An hour later, after finishing his court session, Yongzheng also arrived at Lanyou Courtyard.

"How is the situation?" Yongzheng asked.

"Your Highness, Consort Feng has fallen in the courtyard and is not in good condition," Yixiu replied solemnly.

Then, Yongzheng noticed that Nian Shilan looked unwell, so he went over and took her hand. He already knew that Nian Shilan was pregnant with a princess.

"Shilan, how are you? Why do you look so pale? Go back and rest."

Then, she noticed that Su Yunyi also looked unwell; both of them were pregnant.

"Gege Su should go back and rest too!"

"Yes, thank you, Your Highness!" Su Yunyi quickly stood up and bowed. She hadn't really wanted to come in the first place; there were too many people around, and it wouldn't be good if something happened.

Su Yunyi left with Banlan, Shannai, and Xiao Zhaozi. Xiao Zhaozi led the way, while Banlan and Shannai were on either side of Su Yunyi.

Suddenly, Xiao Zhao tripped and fell in front of him.

"Princess, don't come any closer! There's oil spilled on the ground, we can't walk here now," Zhao Shun said anxiously. As she spoke, Zhao Shun slowly got up and limped ahead, taking a different path. She never took this path, and the mastermind probably didn't expect her to take this shortcut.

"Be careful, I'll have Jinbao get you some medicine to apply later," Su Yunyi instructed.

Banran and Yamana were very worried about her along the way, but thankfully there were no other problems on the road. They only breathed a sigh of relief when they returned to Xijingyuan.

I waited for a long time at Lanyou Courtyard today, and I was very tired when I got back to Qijing Courtyard. In addition, pregnant women tend to be sleepy, so I need to rest after each time I come back from paying my respects.

With Banlan's help, Su Yunyi went to bed to rest.

The following night, news came from the west wing of Lanyou Courtyard that Feng Ruozhao had given birth to a sickly little princess, and then suffered a severe hemorrhage. Although the bleeding was eventually stopped, she lost her fertility.

"What happened yesterday? Weren't you sure everything was going smoothly? It's good news that Feng Ruozhao gave birth to a little princess, but there's still time." Yixiu was barely satisfied with Feng Ruozhao's infertility.

Turning to Jianqiu, he asked, "How are the arrangements for the physician and midwife coming along?"

"Don't worry, the physician and midwife have been arranged, and everything is ready for Consort Nian and Consort Su," Jianqiu said.

"That's good!" Yixiu said calmly.

If it's a princess, let them give birth to the child; if it's a prince, then they shouldn't live.

After Feng Ruozhao's premature birth, Yixiu exempted Nian Shilan and Su Yunyi from paying their respects.

Just as June began, Su Yunyi's mother, Madam Lin, came to the mansion to accompany her during childbirth. She also brought a midwife with her. This midwife was the one who delivered Madam Lin's three births. Most importantly, Su Yunyi also gave her a loyalty potion.

Thanks to Su Yunyi's protection, Nian Shilan did not give birth prematurely. Su Yunyi planned to give birth at the same time as Nian Shilan, so that she could take advantage of the situation. Moreover, she had medicine for natural childbirth and pain relief, so the delivery could be completed in one hour.

It was only late June when Nian Shilan gave birth that evening. Su Yunyi received the news and also took medication for natural childbirth and pain relief. Shortly after taking the medication, she felt a liquid coming from below her body; her water had broken.

With Banlan's prompting, she slowly made her way to the delivery room, giving instructions as she went: "The cervix isn't dilated yet; it will take some more time."

"You all watch out for outsiders. Jinbao, guard the courtyard gate. Yinbao, guard the water-boiling area. Zhao Shun, you go and inform the Fujin and the Prince. Banlan, you wait in the delivery room. Banqing, go and invite the midwife and the physician. Remember to have the midwife wait in the outer room and don't let her into the inner room. Shanling, go and call my mother into the delivery room. Shannai, you direct everyone in the courtyard. The rest of you, those who rehearsed before, come here."

For a time, Qijing Courtyard was brightly lit.

Under Su Yunyi's arrangement, everyone acted in an orderly manner.

As expected, neither the prince nor his wife came to Lanyou Courtyard; instead, they sent Su Peisheng and Jianqiu instead.

In the delivery room, Su Yunyi pushed hard, following the instructions of the nanny her mother had brought.

Meanwhile, the midwife in the outer room was yelling, "Do you know who we are? Let us in right now! If something happens to the princess, can you take responsibility?"

Su Yunyi had no intention of using these midwives of dubious origin. She gave Banlan a look, and Banlan came from the inner room to the outer room.

"Tie them up and gag them, so they don't disturb the princess." Banlan instructed Qiulan and Qiuju to tie them up.

The two struggled to their feet, but with Zhao Shun still there, they were no match for him and were soon tied up.

Although I took medication to facilitate childbirth and pain relief, it didn't completely relieve the pain; at most, it provided partial pain relief.

During childbirth, Su Yunyi felt as if her whole body was being torn apart. No wonder so many women in ancient times died in childbirth.

"Princess, push harder, we can see the prince's head now," the nanny instructed Su Yunyi.

Lin wiped Su Yunyi's sweat and fed her a sip of ginseng soup to help her regain her strength.

Unfortunately, Su Yunyi vomited as soon as she tasted the ginseng soup. After an hour and a half of labor, Su Yunyi had no strength left.

Before losing consciousness, Su Yunyi quickly asked the system to give her a potion to restore her strength.

Using this power, Su Yunyi exerted her last bit of strength, and then felt something slide out of her body.

"Congratulations, Princess, you have given birth to a little prince," the nanny said with a smile.

Soon after the baby was dressed, the baby's cries echoed throughout every corner of Qijing Courtyard.

Jianqiu, of course, heard the voice as well. Her eyes hardened, and she continued, "Congratulations, Princess Su. This servant will go and inform the Princess and the Prince right away."

Upon hearing the sound, Zhao Shun hurriedly went out, one step ahead of Jianqiu, to Lanyou Courtyard to invite the prince.

Inside Lanyou Courtyard.

Yongzheng sat in a chair with Yixiu beside him. From inside the delivery room came the cries of Nian Shilan. Yongzheng quickly fiddled with the beaded chain; his expression was complicated. He liked Nian Shi, but at the same time he was worried about Nian Gengyao, whose relationship with his eighth brother was still ambiguous.

Zhao Shun arrived at Lanyou Courtyard and first bowed to the Prince and his masters.

"Congratulations, Your Highness! Consort Su has just given birth to a little prince," Zhao Shun said happily.

Upon hearing this, Yixiu's face darkened instantly. She glanced at Jianqiu, who had just entered, but after a few seconds, she regained her composure and laughed along with Yongzheng.

"Congratulations, Your Highness! Congratulations!"

The other women were completely oblivious to Yi Xiu's expression, all in shock. A look of sadness crossed Fei Yunyan's face as she touched her belly; she already had a child there.

Then, the other women also offered their congratulations.

"Congratulations, Your Highness! Congratulations!"

"It's true, I have another little prince!" Yongzheng was overjoyed.

"I'm going to see the young prince now. Su Peisheng, you wait here." With that, he strode out of Lanyou Courtyard.

Upon entering Qijing Courtyard, upon hearing the baby crying, Yongzheng laughed heartily.

"Princess, the Prince is here," Banlan said.

At this moment, Su Yunyi was still in good spirits, after all, she had just taken the medicine. She tidied herself up a bit, propped herself up, and looked at the child wrapped in a small blanket. He was rosy-cheeked and wrinkled, looking like a little old man.

"Take him out and let the Prince see him. Also, take care of the two midwives for the Prince. I want to sleep a little longer." With that, Su Yunyi prepared to close her eyes and rest.

The nanny happily carried the child out to receive her reward.

Banlan, Qiulan, and others escorted two midwives out.

Banlan knelt on the ground and said angrily, "Your Highness, these two midwives smell bad and refuse to cooperate with the examination. They are trying to harm our princess. Please, Your Highness, do justice for our princess."

Upon hearing this, Yongzheng's face darkened on the spot: "Su Peisheng, take these two midwives away and interrogate them yourself."

Then he saw the child being held by the nanny. "Is it a little prince? Let me see him quickly," Yongzheng said with a smile. He had originally thought it was a little princess, but he hadn't expected it to be a little prince.

"How is the young prince's health?" Yongzheng asked with concern.

The physician standing nearby quickly replied, "The young prince is in very good health."

"Gege Su has rendered meritorious service in giving birth to the imperial heir, so she will be promoted to the rank of Consort. The servants of Qijing Courtyard have served her well, so they will be rewarded with two months' wages. The midwife will be rewarded with double the amount."

Then, all the servants in Qijing Courtyard were overjoyed.

Yongzheng did not stay at Qijingyuan for long before returning to Lanyouyuan.
