Tell me, who is the child?

Prince's Mansion.

Xia Zhao frowned, watching the attendants help Han Mengliu change his clothes: the large and thick court clothes were layered on the body, and the abdomen was raised high, the leather belt was fastened, bright jewels were dropped one by one, and finally the black hair was tied with a purple gold crown. hair.

Han Mengliu put down his flattened hands, turned his head and smiled at Xia Zhao, "Oh, what's your expression?"

Xia Zhao stepped forward with a heavy face, "You'd better not go, just say that you are unwell. I will go and talk to my father."

"Even if you say so, the queen will find another reason to trouble me someday."

Xia Zhao took another step forward, blocking Han Mengliu's way, "But you are about to give birth, I'm afraid that something might happen..."

"I'm the concubine of the crown prince. It's normal for the empress to summon me. What's more, I'm not the only one invited to the banquet today, and I'm not the only one who is pregnant. If I don't go with an excuse, I will inevitably be discussed again."

"You always do your own way, why are you afraid of this?" Xia Zhao was full of doubts, and then he understood, "If it is for me, there is no need."

Han Mengliu sighed, "I'm afraid of the discussion, not because I'm afraid of the discussion itself, but because I don't want to stand on the cusp of this imperial palace at all times, and get so tired."

Bypassing Xia Zhao, he supported his belly with one hand and walked slowly with the attendants.Ten days later it will be his due date, and the discomfort is increasing day by day, he is a little tired of coping, so he should follow the rules, one thing more is worse than one thing less.

Xia Zhao turned around and looked at Han Mengliu's back. He was tall and straight, with a thin waist and a thin waist, and his steps were brisk, and he couldn't tell that he was about to give birth.But when they slept together in the same bed at night, he was very clear about Han Mengliu's tossing and turning.He just wanted to make Han Mengliu feel more comfortable and relaxed, but he knew better that the identity of His Royal Highness was like a mountain pressing down there, and he couldn't move it no matter what.Han Mengliu used to want to escape, and he escaped many times, but in the end he took the initiative to walk to the bottom of this mountain and carried it with him.

Xia Zhao's fists were clenched tightly. Indeed, as Han Mengliu once laughed at him, he was too young, like a child, so he couldn't fully protect the one he loved.One day, when he is as powerful as his father, will it be all right?

It's the beginning of summer again, and the Queen held a banquet in the Chenxiang Pavilion by the Imperial Pool, inviting the harem Junxiu, the princes, princesses, and concubines to taste the latest summer delicacies prepared by the Imperial Dining Room while admiring the lotus.

As the crown prince's side concubine, Han Mengliu was the first in the harem under Junxiu.During the banquet, everyone's attention was naturally on his stomach, and they couldn't wait to see whether the baby who was about to be born was a boy or a girl.

Han Mengliu pretended not to see, and sat lazily, occasionally moving his chopsticks.

The queen said lightly: "Prince and concubine, but the food and wine are not to your taste?"

Han Mengliu lowered his head and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I don't have a good appetite recently, but the dishes that Your Majesty gave me are very delicious. I have already eaten a lot today."

"Oh?" The Queen frowned, "Is it because the delivery date is approaching?"

"Probably." Han Mengliu said, "I have a dragon physique, and my stomach didn't feel very comfortable during the whole pregnancy." Compared with the white tiger and red bird physiques that are suitable for reproduction, although the dragon physique can give birth, it is often extremely difficult, and it has always been less so in marriage. The most popular, especially the royal harem with heirs, rarely has the physique of a dragon.Han Mengliu didn't want to hear their ramblings, so she said it herself.

"The Emperor has handpicked Qin Yong, the head of the Imperial Hospital, to deliver your baby. Later, I will send someone to Qin Qing to ask him to spend more time. Both the Emperor and I hope that you can give birth to a prince for Zhao'er." .”

When these words were made clear, the rest of the people stared at Han Mengliu's belly more reassuringly and boldly, discussing the relationship between the shape and size of his belly and the relationship between boys and girls. Han Mengliu still couldn't adapt to such a conversation, so he said lightly: " Thank you, the emperor and the empress, for your concern, but the birth of a boy and a girl is already predestined on the day of conception, no matter what you think now, it is too late."

The queen was blocked for a while, feeling very unhappy, and there was no need to hide and tolerate Han Mengliu, she smiled and said bluntly: "It's not too late. If you want a son, this baby won't work, and the next baby can work harder; if Zhao'er wants a son, and there are more ways."

Everyone couldn't help feeling anxious, but Han Mengliu remained calm, and casually answered, "Your Majesty is right."

After the banquet was over, the Empress specifically asked Han Mengliu to stay and continue chatting with him, and Han Mengliu gladly accepted it.

Tea was served in Yuxiao Palace, and Han Mengliu leaned back in the chair, recalling the scene of kneeling here twice, coupled with the fact that the body was really uncomfortable due to the imminent delivery, he really couldn't feel better.

The queen asked about his and Xia Zhao's recent life, and asked about their outings, and he answered them all in a concise manner.In the end, the Queen felt that the groundwork was almost done, and said: "I read the records, and you and Zhao'er haven't had sex for almost a year."

Han Mengliu thought to herself that she had actually done it before when she was out, and she was very beautiful, but she couldn't tell the queen, so she said, "Yes, since I have this child in my womb, I have stopped sex/intercourse."

The Queen asked seriously, "Why?"

Han Mengliu said: "During the consultation, the imperial physician said that I am not suitable for intercourse during pregnancy. His Royal Highness is considerate, so there is no request."

The queen frowned in thought, and said after a while: "But Zhao'er is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince after all, and has already married..."

Han Mengliu looked at the queen, quietly waiting for the next words.Sure enough, the Queen said: "You must know that the most important responsibility of a concubine of the royal family is to raise children, but at the same time, she must also be able to serve her husband and manage all the affairs of the mansion. I see that you are always chic, and you have not presided over the internal affairs of the Prince's Mansion until now. , Thinking about it, you don’t want to do this, and you don’t know how to do these things. You have the physique of a dragon, and you can’t expect too much from your heirs. It’s not good for your body to move around, and you can’t take on the responsibility of serving Zhao’er at the same time, hey.” He sighed deeply. "In the entire palace, Zhao'er is the only one who accepts one concubine. This situation really needs to be changed. But I also need to consider how Zhao'er loves you..."

Han Mengliu was still waiting quietly.

The queen said to herself: "So I think, first give Zhao'er a servant girl in the room, and you and Zhao'er get used to it first." A summons came out, and a girl with a plain color and a good figure walked out of the inner room. , Knelt down at the queen's feet.

"Her name is Chu He. I personally chose her and asked Xiu Er to train/teach her. She is very obedient and will do everything that needs to be done. I believe she can assist Zhao Er and you. You will take her back home with you later. Chu He, Go to see the crown prince and side concubine."

The girl got up and came to Han Mengliu, bowed Yingying, "Your Majesty sees Your Highness the side concubine."

Han Mengliu didn't look at her, but only smiled at the queen, "It turns out that the queen has already prepared the people, so you should directly issue a decree, which saves a banquet and me running around. You know, I am afraid of trouble." Get up and stand up, "I have received it, I hope you will retreat."

As soon as the Queen raised her hand, Han Mengliu immediately turned around and left the palace, Chu He got up and followed with small steps.

Sitting on the chariot, Han Mengliu gently rubbed the bottom of his abdomen with one hand: He actually didn't expect that he would not control his mouth several times today.What was even more unexpected was that he was really angry, so angry that his stomach ached.

He had already guessed that the Queen would make some moves, so was this not indifferent because he was already upset and irritable due to the imminent delivery, or because...he had more affection for Xia Zhao?

In the evening, Xia Zhao returned to the mansion, opened the door of the bedroom, and saw a girl dressed as a court lady kneeling in front of the bed, slightly stunned.

"My maidservant, Chuhe, sees His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." The maid fell to the ground.

Xia Zhao frowned displeasedly, "Who are you? Why are you here?"

"This is the personal maid that the Empress rewarded His Highness."

Xia Zhao turned around and saw Han Mengliu walking in from the courtyard. He was wearing a loose swallow suit, and he was wearing the same juniper-style pregnancy boots that the weaver in Li Yi's family had made for Han Mengliu.

Han Mengliu walked up to Xia Zhao, "She came back with the minister, and the queen asked her to take care of His Highness's daily life and make up for some things that the minister could not do."

Han Mengliu called it this way, there are probably three situations: one is when there are many people, the other is joking, and the third is angry.Now it is definitely not a joke, but whether it is one or three, Xia Zhao is not sure, so his brows are further frowned, but this does not prevent him from making a decision immediately.

He glanced indifferently at the bedroom, and said: "Get up, go to the gate of the mansion by yourself, I will send someone to take you back to the palace."

Chu He, who was kneeling on her stomach, shook her shoulders slightly, and Han Mengliu sighed, "Your Highness, this is the person in the room bestowed by the queen."

"A Meng?" Xia Zhao looked at Han Mengliu with surprise and displeasure.

Han Mengliu stood quietly, looking back at Xia Zhao with quiet eyes, although he didn't say anything, he looked unshakable.

Xia Zhao was defeated, and said, "Forget it. It's late, I'm going to eat in your room, and I'll stay in your room tonight. Since she's in the room, she should stay here." Stepping forward, when passing by Han Mengliu, he reached out to hold his hand, and led him out of the courtyard together.

In the side concubine's bedroom, the dinner was served, Han Mengliu had no appetite, so he just chatted and drank some porridge before pushing away the bowl.Xia Zhao didn't look at Han Mengliu, nor spoke to him, but concentrated on eating with his head down, his profile under the light was shadowed.

Han Mengliu walked to the side and sat in the teacher's chair. Yuanlong's stomach was protruding. He rubbed it slowly with his hands, but his eyes kept on Xia Zhao.

"The person bestowed by the queen, you are so cold, there is no way."

Xia Zhao didn't seem to hear it, and continued to eat on his own. Han Mengliu said again: "You can't go back to sleep all the time, right? The queen will definitely call to inquire, and then..."

"Ameng." Xia Zhao finally put down the bowl and chopsticks, wiped his mouth carefully, and turned his head to look at Han Mengliu with puzzled and resentful eyes, "Then what do you want me to do? Let's go to her now?"

Han Mengliu froze for a moment, frowned slightly, and rubbed her hands more vigorously, "Are you... angry?"

Xia Zhao got up and walked towards Han Mengliu, "Yes, I'm angry. This maid was not what I wanted, but was given to me by my father's will. Naturally, I have to go back and make it clear to my father. Anyway, no matter what, I don't want it. It will make her affect your relationship with me. But since I returned home, you have been acting weird, as if I did something wrong, and as if you wished me what to do with that maid, can I not be angry? I really don’t understand you What exactly does it mean?"

Xia Zhao looked very aggrieved as it should be. Looking at that expression, Han Mengliu's mind that had been chaotic and confused today suddenly cleared up, and the suppressed aggrieved anger in his heart disappeared, so he hurriedly said: "I'm sorry. I'm in a bad mood today. It's wrong." He suddenly laughed while talking, and said helplessly, "I admire myself, probably because I'm used to not wanting others to see my true thoughts, and not wanting to reveal the fragility in my heart. Therefore, at times like this, I would say some seemingly indifferent sour words to cover up and protect myself. In fact, I was so angry that my stomach hurts, huh..." Han Mengliu straightened up, holding his stomach Moan/groan.

"What's wrong with you?" Xia Zhao immediately moved up nervously and wrapped his arms around him.

"It's nothing." Han Mengliu shook his head, "He's too strong now, and he's been using it inside all day without stopping for a moment." Grabbing Xia Zhao's hand and putting it on his stomach, violent fetal movements came through the belly, and his clothes It was protruding and shaking.Xia Zhaoqing touched Han Mengliu's face lovingly, "You have suffered, I..." pursed her lips, "Ameng, I was... very moved when I heard what you said just now. I finally know, How important I am to you."

Han Mengliu smiled bitterly, "I just can't stand how dependent I am on others."

"How can we be someone else?" Xia Zhao sat down and held Han Mengliu in his arms, "Ameng, you don't know how much I want you to rely on me. I will do my best to make you feel that I am can be relied upon."

Han Mengliu turned her head, and Xia Zhao's eyes, who were close at hand, were bright and full of brilliance.He reached out to cover the top of Xia Zhao's head, kissed his lips twice, and then slowly left, with the tip of his nose facing his, and said, "Got it, let me change my temper slowly."

Xia Zhao smiled happily, "Don't get angry again in the future, no matter what you say, you have to tell me first."

"En." Han Mengliu nodded, and the two kissed tenderly for a while, Xia Zhao said, "I'll send someone to send that maid back."

"Don't." Han Mengliu tugged on Xia Zhao's sleeve, "A queen always acts with one meaning followed by many meanings. I always feel that this time it's not just as simple as sending a maid to the house, it's better to stay as an ordinary maidservant." In a few days, let’s see and talk.”

Xia Zhao thought for a while, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Chu He was left behind to take care of Xia Zhao and Han Mengliu's daily life.A few days passed peacefully, and Han Mengliu's body was even more inconvenient.The delivery was imminent, the fetus was adjusted very low, the waist and pubic area were incomparably uncomfortable, the stomach was getting harder day by day, and the faint abdominal pain continued all the time. It was not surprising that he was going to give birth at any time.

However, even though he was unwell, he still insisted on walking. When Xia Zhao was not around, he asked Chu He to accompany him.While walking in the garden, he stopped for a while, the sun was a bit poisonous, Chu He invited him to rest on a stone bench under the shade of a tree nearby, he walked slowly over with his back upright, and then sat down with his back upright.

His hands went up and down to embrace his stone-hard belly, with an impatient look in the corners of his eyes.

Chu He stood beside him and gently shook his fan.

"Uh..." Suddenly, Han Mengliu hugged his stomach and groaned, shaking slightly, "Uh...ah..."

Chu He hurriedly asked: "What's the matter, Your Highness Side Concubine?"

Han Mengliu frowned and panted, "I'm afraid...she's about to give birth."

"Then... the servant will help His Highness go back?"

Han Mengliu nodded and raised his arms.Chu He stretched out her white hand, and clasped Han Mengliu's wrist with her slender fingers.

"His Royal Highness, please go."

As soon as the words fell, Han Mengliu suddenly grabbed Chu He's wrist and turned it over, spreading her palm, and saw a slender silver needle that was easily overlooked between the two fingers of Chu He Shi, glowing faintly in the sun. .

Han Mengliu stood up with a sneer, and stopped moaning, "The sun is so vicious at noon, if you are a duty maid, how can you not advise the master to rest indoors? I don't suggest going back when I am tired from walking, because the garden is deep in the noon. It is sparsely populated, so it is convenient for you to start."

Chu He raised his eyes and looked at Han Mengliu coldly.

"A virgin girl, no matter how calm her temperament is, she will inevitably panic when her master is about to give birth, but you seem to have expected it, and even looked forward to it. Moreover, the day before yesterday you served me to burn my feet, and I found that you didn't have any The calluses that ordinary maidservants should have, but when there are calluses between your fingers, I know you must be cheating."

"What exactly does your highness want to say?" Chu He's gaze was still calm.

Han Mengliu narrowed her eyes, "So calm, she doesn't look like a servant in the palace who works for the master, but like a professional killer."

Chu He was expressionless and silent.

Han Mengliu sighed, "I already know the cause of this matter, the childbirth is imminent, I don't want to kill, you go." Let go of Chu He's wrist.

Chu He glanced at Han Mengliu again, turned around and walked up the path in the garden, Han Mengliu looked at her back.

Suddenly, there was a sound from the other side of the path, and Yiyi and the nanny appeared chasing after her with pigtails and a water-blue skirt. Han Mengliu and Chuhe's bodies paused at the same time, and in an instant, two figures flew up together. In front of her, Yiyi stopped in shock and looked up eagerly.

Han Mengliu was so anxious that all the discomforts and discomforts in her body disappeared suddenly. With the help of her feet, she tried her best to move forward lightly, and finally split Chu He's palm at the moment when she landed beside Yiyi, and grabbed her again. Twist both wrists!Chu He fell to the ground with a muffled groan, and Han Mengliu stared at her: "I wanted to let you live, but you are looking for death."

Yiyi was held in her arms by the nanny covering her head, Han Mengliu turned around to block Chu He's figure, stepped forward to pull Yiyi, and signaled the nanny to call for someone.Yiyi hugged Han Mengliu's knee and looked up, but her sight was blocked by that huge belly.

"Daddy!" Yiyi tugged at Han Mengliu's clothes in dissatisfaction. Han Mengliu's face was pale and sweat was beaded on his forehead. He felt that he was about to lose his standing, but he still insisted on smiling and knelt down slowly, letting the child stick to her "Why didn't Yiyi sleep in the house?"

"Wake up, want to play..." Yiyi said while grabbing Han Mengliu's clothes.

"Okay, when the little guy in Daddy's womb is born, there will be one more person to play with you."

"Then when will it come out?" Yiyi looked at Daddy's big belly curiously, and reached out to touch it.

Han Mengliu pulled Yiyi's hand away calmly, and now his stomach was constricting violently, almost bursting, he clenched his hand tightly, desperately maintaining a steady breathing, and said: "It will be soon, Yiyi will see you soon It's..."

The guards from the mansion came quickly, and Han Mengliu left the garden with Yiyi in his arms. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Chu He who had been tied up, and secretly thought about the queen's plan: to strike at the time when his defense was weakest, so that he would kill himself twice. Is he only targeting himself, or Xia Zhao?But no matter what, if I want to give birth safely, no one can use it except Qin Yong, the head of the Imperial Hospital sent by Emperor Jianping.

After Xia Zhao returned home, he was furious when he heard about it.He didn't want to analyze Han Mengliu's conjecture at all. He just ordered someone to cut off the tendons of Chuhe's arms and legs, beat him up and sent him back to Yuxiao Palace, and wrote a letter to the queen himself. The letter was full of killing spirit: For the time being, the minister will assume that this matter has nothing to do with his father, but this is the last time that he will hurt his wife and children.The son-in-law has respected his father since he was a child, and he hopes to continue to respect him in the future.

That night, Han Mengliu Jianhong was in labor, and the imperial doctor Qin delivered the baby and treated Han Mengliu's eye disease.Emperor Jianping visited the Prince's Mansion to show his respect.

Xia Zhao stood not far from the bed, looking at Han Mengliu, who was in pain, and the people around him who were busy preparing, and then blamed himself for being useless, presumably Han Mengliu didn't like himself looking at him at this time.

Just about to go out, Han Mengliu who was on the bed suddenly said, "Your Highness..."

Xia Zhao was taken aback, and turned to look at him.

Han Mengliu showed a weak smile, and stretched out his hand, "Can Your Highness... accompany me here?"

Xia Zhao was taken aback for another moment, and his eyes showed an unbelievable light.

Han Mengliu smiled even more prettily, her beautiful lips moved slightly, "I...need Your Highness."

Xia Zhao's chest was churning, and he rushed to the bed and squeezed Han Mengliu's hand, "Okay, Ameng, I'll be with you, I'll always be with you. Don't be afraid, just pinch me if it hurts!"

Han Mengliu twitched the corners of her mouth comfortingly, straightened up, frowned/groaned in pain.

On the next day, Xia Zhao and Han Mengliu's sons were born in the sunny morning light, and the position of the eldest grandson of the Daqi royal family was finally no longer vacant.Han Mengliu fell into a deep sleep with his eyes covered with thick gauze, Xia Zhao was still sitting on the edge of the bed holding his hand, weeping happily and distressed.
