The reborn son cursed his mother, bah, she heard it all

The midwife was really frightened!

Oh my god, why do you have to use surgery just like that?

Still in that position...

Will it ever get better?

Seeing that things were going badly, Jiang Ying slapped the midwife in the face, "Wake up!"

It’s not that she can’t do it herself, but her experience in this area is indeed not as good as that of the midwife, and she doesn’t know how much force to use.

It was unknown how long it was before the midwives came to their senses. One of them pulled from the front while the other two pushed on Concubine Chen's bulging belly. Suddenly, Concubine Chen screamed and her belly shrank visibly.

"It's born! Oh, it's finally born!" the midwife screamed excitedly.

It wasn’t easy, this first child was finally born with great difficulty!

"My queen, it's a princess." Jiang Ying announced the good news with a smile, "But she's quite fat, I guess she must have competed with the little prince for nutrition in her belly."

Her daughter's loud crying made Concubine Chen's eyes fill with tears instantly. She was also moved by Jiang Ying's words and didn't know what to say.

It was hard to tell the tears and sweat from each other on his face as they gathered together and flowed down.

Just when everyone in the room was smiling happily, there was a loud knock on the door. Jiang Ying said angrily, "There's one more. Why are you in such a hurry?"

But she teased Concubine Chen, "Look, the father of the child must be impatient, but we won't show him. Wait until the other one comes out of the belly, and then take them out."

Then the midwife stopped walking.

Jiang Ying waved her hand and asked someone to bring the ginseng soup again. In front of everyone, she blatantly poured a yellow medicinal powder into it. Everyone was surprised, but said nothing.

Even Concubine Chen did not hesitate and drank it all in one gulp.

Jiang Ying then explained, "This is a drug that can induce labor, and it also has a certain effect in restoring vitality. Previously, I wanted you to let nature take its course, which would be good for the child, but now I know you don't have much strength left, so let's make it quick."

Concubine Chen was overjoyed. "Okay, I don't ask for anything now. I still want to live and watch my children grow up..."

These words made everyone present feel sad.

The midwives wiped their eyes and immediately started the second round of delivery, sighing in their hearts, how difficult it is, life is so difficult for all women, even for a queen, it is the same.

With the help of Jiang Ying's elixir, the second child was born quickly.

The whole process took less than an hour.

It was not until the little prince's loud cry echoed throughout the house that the midwives, Jiang Ying and Concubine Chen all breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone was smiling happily.

The sound of banging on the door outside sounded more like someone was trying to tear down the house.

Jiang Ying was angrily, "Knock, knock, knock! If you knock again, I'll chop off your hands! The midwives are washing the baby, wait!"

She was so tired at the moment, and so frantic after being frightened, that she didn't care whether it was the emperor or anyone else outside.

……

Outside.

About two hours ago——

The afternoon sun was the hottest, making people drowsy, but the occasional cries of pain coming from the delivery room kept people on edge.

The emperor became more and more frustrated as he waited, fearing that Concubine Chen would not be able to give birth to the baby.

This is the child he has been looking forward to for a long time. The more effort he puts into him, the more he cannot accept the slightest mistake.

As a result, he could not suppress his dissatisfaction, remorse, and anger, and shouted "Huang Mingquan"!

Eunuch Huang stepped forward and asked, "What does the emperor want?"

"Go, call the eldest and second princes to the courtyard of Yuntai Palace and have them kneel down and pray for the child in the Imperial Concubine's arms!"

If it weren't for those two rebellious sons, how could the imperial concubine have given birth prematurely?

The key point is that the emperor not only hated the two children, he even hated himself. He was clearly next to the imperial concubine when the incident happened, but he did not protect her at the first time, which made the imperial concubine react faster and push him away.

The rubble hit the imperial concubine's shoulder, causing her to fall, which triggered her miscarriage and led to premature birth.

Before, considering that the two children were ignorant and busy rescuing them at the first time, the emperor had not punished the two rebellious sons. But this time the emperor really couldn't bear it anymore and had to give them a light punishment and a severe warning to relieve his hatred.

The sun was high in the sky at this moment. When the emperor heard that he was going to bring the two princes in to be punished by kneeling, not only Huang Mingquan, but everyone else looked at him in shock.

Yan Zhuo saw some clues, but he did not agree with the emperor's way of dealing with it, and advised: "Royal brother, there are already enough people and horses thrown into chaos here. If you continue like this, I'm afraid there will be more trouble."

The emperor was very determined and ignored Yan Zhuo, "Huang Mingquan, I can't order you around anymore, right?"

Eunuch Huang felt bitter. He thought that no matter how big the mistakes made by the eldest prince and the second prince were, bringing them to Yuntai Palace at this critical moment and making two three or five-year-old children kneel to be punished, how could that be good for the imperial concubine?

Instead, let more people in the harem curse her to death!

After all, the imperial concubine was already very favored, and now that she was about to give birth to a child, she would be even more favored. There were already countless people hoping that she would not be successful. By doing this, wouldn't she be offending both the usually neutral empress and the usually non-competitive Concubine Ruan?

The emperor must be so angry that he is confused!

While hesitating, Eunuch Huang glanced and saw Yan Zhuo put his hands behind his back and waved at him, and his eyes lit up.

He turned around, stopped hesitating, and went decisively.

Upon seeing this, the emperor sat down on the chair in a daze. His eyes were full of spider-web-like red bloodshot due to lack of sleep, which was heartbreaking to see.

Yan Zhuo was both grateful and regretful at this time. He was grateful that Jiang Ying did not have such a hard time giving birth, but he regretted that he had let a woman down during her most difficult time by not being by her side, leaving her to face it alone.

"Brother Emperor, I understand how you feel right now, but try to think positively. After all, even if you are anxious to death, it won't help you with the birth of the child."

Hearing this, the emperor glared at him and said, "It's not your woman's birth. I know it, but you are just talking without any pain in your waist!"

Yan Zhuo, "..."

Isn't this to enlighten him? It's really useless to be anxious to death, and it's useless to let the two princes kneel down and apologize!

But Yan Zhuo changed his mind and thought that if it was Jiang Ying crying in there now, he would probably be as uneasy as the emperor. However, he would not sit and wait, but choose to go in and work hard with Jiang Ying.

Therefore, Yan Zhuo touched his nose and said, "Okay, my brother is quite emotional now, so I won't say any more nonsense. But since my brother has kidnapped the two princes, you should be prepared that the biological mother of the child will also come with you!"

The emperor slammed the armrest of his chair, "Come on! Would I be afraid of them? They are two losers who can't even raise a child. Our ancestors said that loving mothers often spoil their children. It's absolutely true!"

Almost as soon as the emperor finished speaking, Empress Feng, holding the eldest prince's hand, and Concubine Ruan, holding the second prince in her arms, followed by maids and nannies from various palaces and palace servants who took care of the two princes, all appeared in front of the palace gate in a grand and majestic manner.

The emperor glanced at them and flew into a rage, "Huang Mingquan, you old fellow have been ill for a while, you don't even know what it means to ask for forgiveness with a thorn stick on your back, right? What I want are those two rebellious sons who made mistakes, not the backers who support them!"

Queen, "..."

Princess Ruan, "..."

Seeing the two ladies' beautifully drawn eyes narrowed slightly, Huang Mingquan felt so wronged that he was about to cry. He knelt on the ground with a plop, "Your Majesty... I am just a eunuch. I can't do this!"

"You!" The emperor was so angry that he rushed forward and kicked Huang Mingquan. Of course, the kick was not heavy, he just did it for the queen and Concubine Ruan to see.

Huang Mingquan knew the emperor too well. He immediately covered his legs and screamed, showing that the emperor was indeed very angry.

In this way, the emperor's cold face made his words more intimidating. "What are you doing here? They were naughty today and caused such a big trouble. Why can't I teach them a lesson? Is it worth it for you two to follow me?"

She was also a woman he had favored and had given birth to a son, so the emperor didn't have to be so harsh on her.

But what happened today is indeed the two children's fault. As mothers, they failed to educate their sons responsibly. Instead of admitting their mistakes, they come along to support their sons. It is outrageous!

As soon as she arrived, the emperor pointed at her nose and scolded her in front of the palace maids. Concubine Ruan's face changed.

The queen was calm and held the eldest prince's hand tightly. Before Concubine Ruan could argue, she pushed the child and said, "Go, Heng'er, tell your father what you said to your mother in Kunning Palace."

The second prince, Yan Bailing, who was only three years old, was timid. He was so frightened by the emperor who was like a fire-breathing dragon in front of him that he was a little speechless and hiccuped from time to time.

The eldest prince Yan Shuheng was actually afraid, but he could not resist the encouragement of his mother, so he mustered up the courage and took a step forward.

Before he could even open his mouth, the emperor pointed outside the delivery room and said, "Father doesn't want to hear any excuses. You brothers, kneel outside the door. When your mother and child are safe, you can get up."

"Father..." The eldest prince's voice froze, feeling aggrieved, bitter, and guilty at the same time.

In fact, he and his second brother had no intention of hurting anyone. It was just an accident.

She had a thousand words in her heart, but because of the emperor's cold face, she couldn't say a word, and she was so anxious that tears were about to come out.

The queen closed her eyes, very disappointed with the emperor, but she did not plead for mercy at this time. She only said to her son, "Heng'er, your father is angry, it's okay, just kneel down. After all, Concubine Chen was in danger because of you two, this is a fact.

Just think of it as atonement for your mistakes, okay?

An unintentional mistake is also a mistake, and we as men need to take responsibility.”

With just a few words, the eldest prince held back his tears. He walked straight to the outside of the delivery room and knelt down with determination.

Concubine Ruan thought that the Queen came to fight with the Emperor. She was dumbfounded when she saw this and stared at the Queen with puzzled eyes for several times.

The emperor frowned, "Why, Concubine Ruan has a problem with my punishment?"

The Queen knew that Concubine Ruan was more protective of her than she was, but right now Concubine Chen was in there and her life or death was unknown, and the Emperor was in a state of extreme worry, anxiety, and anger. This was not the time to reason with her at all!

Although she didn't like Concubine Ruan that much, she didn't want her to die, so she kindly said, "Sister Ruan, why don't you let the Second Prince go? The two brothers made the same mistake and should be punished together."

"Queen, I asked Ling'er, this matter is clearly..."

Just when Concubine Ruan was about to tell the truth, the Queen took another step forward and said, "I know, I understand your feelings, but please don't say it now. Listen to me for once, okay?"

"On the one hand, it is an irrefutable fact that the two of them secretly climbed the rockery and threw stones at people."

"On the other hand, Concubine Chen was injured because she protected the emperor from disaster. She doesn't even know what happened to the baby in her belly. Therefore, the first and second princes kneeling to Concubine Chen are kneeling to the emperor's savior, and it's not unfair to them."

These words were so clear and transparent that Concubine Ruan was speechless for a moment.

After kissing her son's red eyes, she put the child down and said, "Ling'er, did you hear what your mother, Queen Feng, said? Although you and the eldest prince did not intentionally make a mistake, you have already made a mistake. Kneeling is your father's punishment for you."

The second prince shuddered, feeling like crying and so frightened that he stole a cautious glance at the emperor and began to tremble with fear.

How could he be willing to kneel? He just wanted to throw himself into his mother's arms and cry his heart out.

However, at this moment, the eldest prince turned around and stretched out his hand to him, "Second brother, come here quickly, it's just kneeling, it won't kill anyone."

Anyway, he was naughty on weekdays and his mother had punished him before.

Others may not know that his knees are calloused from kneeling, so such punishment is nothing to him.

Of course, when he knelt, he would only pray that Empress Chen was fine, and that his future brothers and sisters in Empress Chen's belly were fine.

"Go." Concubine Ruan raised her chin. Poor child, what a sin.

When the truth comes out, she will definitely tear to pieces the murderer who killed her son!

In a flash, the two children, one tall and one short, were actually kneeling outside the delivery room, braving the hottest afternoon sun. Their fair and rosy little faces soon turned greasy and red!

Concubine Ruan was so distressed that she could hardly sit still.

The queen glanced at her son who quietly put his hand under the second prince's knees, shook her head, and lamented that her son was a little fool.

However, the little guy has been trained by her since he was a child and is very tough, so she is not too worried.

It was not until the two children's vests were soaked by the sun that Yan Zhuo couldn't help but pick up a small stone and hit the emperor's calf. Then he went down the pole, coughed and said, "Huang Mingquan, get someone to hold an umbrella for those two rebellious sons, so that they won't fall down before those in the house come out!"

Eunuch Huang rolled his eyes secretly and thought, why bother?

The palm or the back of your hand, which one is not flesh?

Why did they have to do this? The Imperial Concubine didn't blame the First and Second Princes much.

Before long, another half hour passed. The Second Prince was already half sitting and half kneeling, with his head resting on the First Prince's arm and his eyes closed, as if he had fallen asleep.

The eldest prince was still able to hold on, but he was also very sleepy and tired. His eyelids were like weights, and they kept tilting from time to time.

The emperor's eyelids twitched at the sight, and he looked towards the biological mothers of the two princes, thinking that if these two cried and begged now, he would stop.

In the end, she didn't ask for it at all. Concubine Ruan quietly wiped her tears a few times. The queen sat very straight and asked about the situation in the delivery room in a gentle voice from time to time...

The emperor was extremely frustrated. His queen was so mentally resolute and calm that even he had to give her a thumbs up.

Just at this moment, the cry of a baby that everyone called the sound of nature was finally heard from the delivery room, wa woo wa wa wa wa wa. For the first time, everyone felt that a baby's crying was so joyful.
