The eighth day of the twelfth lunar month is the Laba Festival, and several pots of Laba porridge are cooked in the palace, and everyone has a bowl.Lin Qingyun has been eating well since she was pregnant, but later she was worried that she would eat too much and the fetus would be too big to give birth, so she gradually controlled her diet, but the cook in the mansion was indeed carefully selected by Tu Yan, and the Laba porridge cooked was soft and sweet, The ingredients were sufficient, and Lin Qingyun couldn't hold back and ate an extra bowl.

That night, she suddenly complained of a stomachache.

Tu Yan didn't sleep in the same bed as her, and got up immediately when he heard the sound.The candles in the room were always on, but seeing that her face was covered with sweat, it was obvious that she couldn't help but screamed out.Tu Yan was distressed and angry at the same time, he didn't care about it now, he hurriedly called out for someone, got back dressed, and didn't forget to comfort her.

"You'an, stay with me." Lin Qingyun tugged at his hand and refused to let go.Although she didn't show it, in ancient times, women's childbirth was half-legged, and dystocia and postpartum hemorrhage were not uncommon. She was always afraid in her heart.

"Don't be afraid, you'll be fine. Didn't the imperial physician say that everything is fine for you? Madam Du also said that your bosom is very good, your belly is not too big, and your birth will be smooth." Tu Yan only comforted her with good words. she.

Lin Qingyun glared at him: "How do you know that you are born well? It's not you who gave birth, and it doesn't hurt your back to talk while standing!"

During the first trimester of pregnancy, she often lost her temper, but she learned to control it later.When it was time to give birth, my temper came up again under worry and fear.

Tu Yan was always good-tempered, so he only coaxed her softly.

Grandma Bailu, Li and others soon came in, but Grandma Li had never given birth, so she couldn't understand these things, and everything had to rely on the two stable women sent by the empress.The two stable women are in charge of the birth of concubines, one is surnamed Du and the other is surnamed Liu, both of whom are queens.

"My lord, please stay away." In ancient times, a woman was not allowed to give birth to a man, not to mention that coming to the delivery room was considered a serious crime, and men would not come close easily.

Tu Yan was worried about Lin Qingyun, but Lin Qingyun's temper was restrained due to the presence of outsiders, and he knew that he could not be willful, so he persuaded him to go out: "Don't worry, my lord, I'm fine."

"Call me if you need anything." How could Tu Yan really rest assured.When I came out, I couldn't sit still at all, walking back and forth, worrying about the fetus for a while, and her for a while, my mind was full of so many terrible consequences.

Lin Qingyun didn't care about him, and now she only listened to Madam Du's orders.

Madam Du touched her belly, asked a few words, lifted the quilt to check again, and said, "Princess, don't be afraid, don't panic, it's still early. This is just a labor pain. The princess is the first child, and the time it takes is only If I’m afraid it will take longer, I can eat something, get out of bed and walk around, so it’s more healthy.”

Although he was unwilling to move at all, he had no choice but to endure.

Bai Lu brought soft and rotten white rice porridge, ate a bowl of pickled side dishes, and walked back and forth in the bedroom a few times with the support of Nanny Li and others.It was the twelfth lunar month, and the smoker cage was already lit in the house, and now she was afraid that she would catch a cold, so she lit two more. She was also wearing thin clothes, but she was sweating again after a while.At this time, there is no need to go back and forth to change clothes, take a rest, and then continue walking.

"How is the princess? How are you doing now?" Tu Yan asked from outside.

Lin Qingjun replied with a smile: "What's the rush, my lord? I haven't given birth yet."

"Why aren't you born yet?" Tu Yan was in a hurry.

Lin Qingyun no longer cared about him, and asked Bai Lu: "What time is it?"

"It's time to be ugly."

"It's already midnight." Lin Qingyun reckoned that the baby would be born on the ninth day of the lunar new year.Just as she was about to get up and continue walking around, her stomach jerked violently and sank again, her face changed due to the pain.

"Quick, quickly help the princess to lie on the bed, she's about to give birth." Madam Du hurriedly instructed.Another Mammy Liu arranged for the maids to prepare hot water, scissors and other things. Everything was busy, but in an orderly manner.

Tu Yan was panicking in a hurry, when he suddenly heard a scream from inside, he was so frightened that he almost fell off his chair.Knowing that this is the beginning of labor, my heart beats a lot faster than usual.

I don't know how many people are watching Lin Qingyun's fetus. Once it is activated, news will be reported to the outside world immediately.First of all, the news was sent to the palace.Even though the palace gates were closed at night, the emperor and empress had already issued orders for this matter. It happened that today was a holiday, and the emperor stayed in Fengyi Palace. As soon as they learned that the princess had activated it, both the emperor and empress lost sleepiness.The empress was looking forward to having a grandson, and the emperor was looking forward to having a grandson, even more nervous and urgent than when he had his own son.

Another person reported to the Lin family that because of Daiyu's pregnancy, Lin Qingyun specifically told her to wait until she gave birth.

Daiyu's pregnancy is different. Now she has just turned five months, and the reaction is very strong. It was only diagnosed half a month ago. Daiyu is pregnant with twins.Lin Qingyun was happy and worried at the same time, but it was only when he saw the lotus seeds that he felt more comforted.Now Daiyu's body is strong, although the reaction to morning sickness is more serious, but the doctor said that the fetus is very healthy, and Daiyu herself can eat and sleep. It can save your life.

Earlier, Madam Du said that Lin Qingyun's fetal position was correct, the fetus was not too big, and the body was in good health. Although it was the first child, it would take a little more time, and it would be born smoothly.

From when she was ugly to when she was almost Mao, she only felt that her physical strength was losing rapidly, she followed Madam Du's instructions, she didn't dare to shout all the time, she gathered her strength, and exerted herself in one go.Naturally, it hurts a lot during childbirth, but at this time, nothing is important, the only thought is to give birth to the child as soon as possible, not to mention the pain is so severe that it is numb.

"Princess, if you try harder, you will come out."

Lin Qingyun gathered all her energy and gritted her teeth.

"It's out! It's out! It's a young man!" Madam Du immediately wiped the amniotic fluid from the child's body, and patted the buttocks backwards. Put it in the warm water wooden basin prepared earlier, wash it quickly, and wrap it again in a big red swaddle.

Nanny Liu had already taken over and tidied things up for Lin Qingyun, and said, "The concubine gave birth very smoothly, and there was no bleeding. After giving birth to the first child, she is still in such good spirits, this is the first time I have seen this servant."

In fact, Lin Qingyun was also very tired, but he just wanted to see the child.

The maids tidied up the beds, but the weather was cold, so they dared not open the windows to let the air in. There was a smell of blood in the room.With experience, Madam Du and the others took out a pack of specially prepared incense slices and put them in the smoker cage, which ignited a faint and cold fragrance, which suppressed the bloody atmosphere for a while.

"Princess, look, the little prince is fat and fat, weighing seven pounds and six ounces. Looking at his eyebrows, he looks a bit like a prince." Li Momo is getting old, and she likes children very much. She was born in the middle of nowhere, and she is her own little master, so she really loves her no matter how she sees her.

Lin Qingyun looked at Nanny Li's hand, and felt her heart soften.

At this time, Tu Yan had already heard the news outside, and was so happy that he didn't know what to do for a while. It was Eunuch Le who reminded him, so he hurriedly ordered people to go to the palace to announce the good news. They exited and went in.

Nanny Li and the others are regular servants, knowing that the prince and concubine are in a good relationship, they smiled and left.

Tu Yan looked at his son who was lying in the swaddle and sleeping peacefully, but he didn't dare to reach out to touch him, for fear of scaring him.Looking at Lin Qingyun again, even though Bailu had cleaned her up, she had to confine herself to confinement after giving birth, and she could not take a bath for a month, and simple scrubbing could not remove the sweat in her hair.Although her appearance was not good-looking, Tu Yan was happy to see her like this, safe and sound, able to talk and laugh.

"Weiqing has worked hard." Tu Yan said with a smile: "He gave birth at a good time, it was just at dawn."

When the news spread to the palace, the emperor clapped his palms and laughed, and the empress was overjoyed and ordered Wen Xin and others to bring some good things to Lin Qingyun.The emperor also asked someone to spread paper and grind it, and to give a name to the newborn grandson.

The queen hurriedly stopped him: "The emperor is very happy and all the courtiers know it, but the child has just been born, and the emperor has great prestige, so he is afraid that his child will not be able to bear it."

The empress didn't want the emperor's grandson to be valued by the emperor's blue eyes, but she was afraid that too much attention would be paid to it, which would make the little person suffer from many disasters and not grow up.After what happened to Tu Yan, she can move everything else, only the safety of her children and grandchildren is the most important.

"That's all, let Lao Qi get it. When the child grows up, I will give him a word." The emperor understood the empress's worry, thought about it, and had no choice but to give up.

Aunt Wenxin personally led the people out of the palace with things to Prince Chun's Mansion, and the sky had just dawned.

It has just snowed a few days ago, and the roof is covered with a layer of white snow. The sun is rising in the eastern sky, and the golden light is gorgeous. The auspicious clouds spread layer by layer with golden light, and the whole land is bathed in a warm and dazzling light, which is warm and refreshing. full of hope.Wen Xin thinks this is really a good idea, and she can't blame the emperor for being so excited to name Xiaoshizi.I've heard that the prince looked through the books and looked up the classics early to think of a name. I'm afraid he has already decided on a name for the little prince. After a while, if he understands it and returns it to the empress, the empress will be happier.

When Wen Xin's sedan chair arrived at the gate of the Wangfu, he found that the front of the Wangfu was very lively, all kinds of sedan chairs stopped on the ground, and most of the powerful people in Beijing had arrived.No need to ask, it must be that Prince Chun came to congratulate him when he heard that he had a son-in-law.

Wen Xin came here on behalf of the empress, and was immediately seen by the sharp-eyed chief historian, and rushed to welcome him in.

At this moment, Tu Yan was meeting guests outside, and the visitors were several royal brothers, as well as several old clans of Prince Zhongshun, so it's hard to see them.Inside, Lin Qingyun's place saves a lot of trouble. When the female family members come, they are all entertained by Madam Li, Bailu Hongling and others. The wives of all families know that the princess is not easy to see guests nowadays, so it is a courtesy to come here, even the little prince Don't dare to say anything.The baby is very delicate when it is just born, and in this weather, no one can afford it if there is a mistake.

The wives of each family would not be boring themselves, they did their best and left one after another.

Aunt Wenxin was led into the Fuji Luoyuan, and Sister Zheng and Sister Jiang both came from Fengyi Palace, so they were naturally very familiar with Wenxin.The two came out to welcome each other, and when they greeted each other, Madam Zheng said with a smile on her face: "It's not that I just picked nice things to say, but I actually met so many princes and daughters in the palace, and none of them died when they were just born. Bai Nennen is so attractive. Aunt Wenxin should take a good look at it and tell the empress when she goes back, Xiao Shizi is very strong, he has had milk once after waking up, and is now fast asleep."

The more Wen Xin listened, the more itchy she became. After entering the door, she first took off her cloak in the outside room, washed her hands in the hot water brought by the servant girl, warmed her body slightly to relieve the cold, and then opened the curtain and went into the inner room.As soon as I entered, I saw someone inside, and I knew they were sisters when I saw the similarities in their facial features. Seeing that they were about the same age as the princess, and they spoke intimately, I guessed that they were good sisters before they left the pavilion.Of these two people, one has a woman's hair styled, the other is still dressed as a girl, but Wen Xin has seen this girl before, she is Zhuang Shixiang, the daughter-in-law appointed by the eldest princess, and the eldest housewife of Zhuang.

Naturally, Zhuang Shixiang also recognized it, and whispered to Zhuang Shiqing who was at the side, and the two greeted each other.As the saying goes, the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, not to mention the No.1 next to the empress.

Wen Xin didn't care about the two girls from the Zhuang family at the moment, because Lin Qingyun looked good and could chat and laugh with others, so after asking her well, she walked to the small bed beside her to see Xiao Shizi.

After all, Lin Qingyun was not an ancient person. Although she changed the rules because of her bad status, she still fed the child's first sip of milk.She heard that colostrum is the best in the first few days. Anyway, she is in confinement right now, and the baby has to be by her side, so it's okay to feed it for a few days, as long as the subordinates don't say anything.

The child's crib had been prepared long ago, and she had discussed it with Tu Yan.At that time, Tu Yan's tone was quite sour: "But it was agreed that it will be a month, and he will have to move out after the new year. You can't just forget the son and his father when you have a son."

This rascal's tone was not at all like a gentle and refined person in ordinary times, and she often made fun of it.

Wen Xin rubbed her hands, then carefully hugged Xiao Shizi together with the quilt, the little guy was still sleeping soundly, his little mouth was moving, it was a joy to watch.Wen Xin didn't hold her for too long, and put it back carefully, and looked at it again and again if she liked it, then went to the bedside to look at Lin Qingyun carefully, and then relayed what the empress had said.

Lin Qingyun couldn't get out of bed, so she could only straighten up and listen respectfully.

After Wen Xin finished speaking, she quickly helped her to lie down again: "Princess, you have to pay attention, women can't be careless during confinement, many problems are the roots of confinement."

"Thank you, aunt, for your instructions. I will remember them all. Besides, there are several maids around me watching, and they are all very careful and appropriate. Auntie just needs to rest assured that everything is fine for me and my little son, who can eat and sleep. The little doctor Qin has been guarding the mansion for the past few days." Lin Qingyun smiled involuntarily when he said that his son's eyebrows and eyes were involuntary.

Wen Xin looked at her, and felt that she would become more charming after having a child, thinking of her prince's temper, she also smiled. "I heard that Xiaoshizi already has a name. If I ask clearly, I will tell the empress when I go back."

Speaking of this, Lin Qingyun couldn't help laughing: "Auntie heard about it too? I said he was impatient. When he was diagnosed and didn't know the gender, he hurriedly went to the book, but he didn't settle down after several months. I just gave birth today, and when I knew the time when the child was born, he immediately had a name. Because he was born in Maoshi, when the dawn broke, he took the word "Chen". Because of the weather, he was nicknamed 'Chuyang'."

Wen Xin took a closer look, and said again and again: "They are all good names."

While talking, a maid outside reported: "Princess Yongjia is here."

"The eldest princess is here too." Wen Xin hurriedly got up to salute, and then teased An Le: "The princess is now a big girl, and next year she will be called someone else, and she can't run around like crazy anymore."

"My aunt is joking again!" An Le is 15 years old, and she was born with a slim figure. The eldest princess regards it as a treasure, and even the empress attaches great importance to it.In order to choose a perfect marriage for An Le, the mother and daughter took great pains, and after several years of selection, they finally had a candidate.

Wen Xin didn't wait too long, the queen was still waiting for Xin'er in the palace.

After returning to the palace, Wen Xin explained today's events in detail, emphasizing on the newborn little son, drawing little by little, almost like talking about a fairy boy.Queen Pian loved to hear these words, and while her son was happy that her grandson was healthy and tender, she also regretted that she could not see her in person.The full moon of the child is in the first month, and the palace is busy at that time, and the palace festival will not end until the end of the first month, and it is still very cold in the first month, and I am reluctant to let my grandson go out to suffer in the cold wind.

After a busy day in Prince Chun's Mansion, it was finally quiet.

The congratulatory gifts sent by each family, some are put into the public treasury, some are handled by the outside account room, and some are sent to Lin Qingyun or Xiao Shizi, all are registered and stored by Bailu in different categories.Bailu will be released in the new year, and now he is carrying Acacia to start various errands. Although Acacia is not as agile and capable as Bailu, he has gradually developed a bit of practice.

Lin Qingjun was lying on the bed all day, and his body hurt from lying down. Bailing Thrush beat his legs and rubbed his shoulders one by one, and kept chattering.Seeing her rubbing her temples, Nanny Li winked at Bai Ling to stop talking, and asked her how she felt?

"Tired and flustered, lack of energy." Lin Qingyun waved Bailing Thrush back, and smiled with Li Mama: "The sisters who have been friends in the past are now married and pregnant, and they will get together in two or three years. Ouch, it's so lively."

Nanny Li also smiled and said: "Yes. The sisters that Wang Hao was friends with at the beginning, except for the third girl from the Zhuang family who married early, now they have a daughter, who will be the youngest son of our mansion. In two years, there will be more The third girl of the Zhuang family is now pregnant again. The younger sister of the princess and the married second girl of the Jia family will all be next year, and the fourth girl of the Zhuang family will probably be the fourth girl. The fourth girl has just been married for less than two months , the happy event is yet to come, and the fifth girl from the Zhuang family will marry Mr. Lu next year..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard Lidong report outside: "Princess, the third girl from the Jia family and the eldest girl from the Xue family are here."

Lin Qingyun was surprised.

There was no one from Jia's house today, but He Xi's things came.Since Lin Qingyun is the adopted daughter of the Lin family, she has a little relationship with the Rongguo Mansion, so it is reasonable to send a congratulatory gift.In addition, Jia Lian, his wife, and Jia's mother prepared gifts for Lin Qingjun and Xiao Shizi separately, and Bai Lu Xiangsi took everything.

Jia Lian and his wife were the only ones who could go out to do errands in the Jia family. Jia Lian was a foreigner so it was not easy to come to the inner house, and Wang Xifeng was naturally unable to come with a big belly.In that mansion, Mrs. Xing can't do anything, and Mrs. Wang will never come to the door. How can no one take the girl out?

"You guys are..." Lin Qingyun questioned, and also caught a glimpse of Xue Baochai following an unfamiliar girl.The girl was about twelve or thirteen years old, wearing a red cloak, she looked rare and beautiful, her eyes were pure and flawless, she was very eye-catching and lovable.

Lin Qingyun's heart moved, and he thought of someone.

This person heard Tanchun say: "It was Lian's second elder brother who sent us here. The princess is very happy to have a son, so why not come to congratulate me?"

He also heard Xue Baochai say: "Before the princess heard that I had a sister who also lived in Rongguo Mansion, she said she wanted to meet her. Today was also a coincidence, so I brought her along. My sister is Baoqin, younger than Sister Lin. Two years old, betrothed to Du Zhongmei's Hanlin family since childhood. She was supposed to come to get married, but she was released from Mei's house."

Lin Qingyun glanced at Xue Baochai when he heard the words. According to Xue Baochai's personality, how could he introduce his cousin like this at the first sight.Isn't it a face-to-face exposure?

Xue Baoqin was also very surprised. She glanced at Xue Baochai, her face turned red and then turned pale, she lowered her head and said nothing.

When she caught a glimpse of the bitterness in Xue Baochai's eyes, Lin Qingyun suddenly understood her intention.I'm afraid it's because her own youth was wasted, years passed by, and Baoqin was deliberately delayed by the Mei family, and she was afraid that she would be in a dilemma like her in the future, so she hoped to get some help from Lin Qingyun.

When they met for the first time, Lin Qingjun couldn't say anything else, so he changed the subject and mentioned Baoqin's poem.Gradually, it made sense, she was indeed a lively and enthusiastic girl, somewhat similar to An Le, but much smarter than An Le.

Before leaving, Tanchun said: "Sister Yun didn't come today, Princess Wang, please forgive me. She is engaged to the son of the Wei family. Although she has never been married, the old general Wei died in battle, and something happened to the Shi family. It is difficult for her to go out. .”

After the war in Xihai Yanzi this time, several princes' mansions in Beijing were implicated. Exiled, also imprisoned.This time, both the Historians and Marquises were confiscated, and they felt that they were the most eye-catching family among them.There are still people who can remember the scenery of historians back then, who would have expected that it would disappear in just two or thirty years.

The Jia family was also terrified, inquiring about the crimes committed by the historian.It is said that the two historians, the Marquis, were involved in a case in the army, and there was a huge deficit. The emperor just ordered the confiscation of the title, the confiscation of the house, and the exile of the two marquises.

Wang Xifeng didn't dare to let Jia Mu know, so she only called Shi Xiangyun to tell her.

Shi Xiangyun was dumbfounded all of a sudden.

Three years ago, her uncle was released, and the whole family went, leaving her alone in Beijing.Although she also likes to live in Jia's house, after all, her uncle and aunt are her family members, so how can she have no idea if she is abandoned like this?Originally, the historian received permission to return to Beijing to report on his duties in November, and she was still counting the days until the historian sent someone to pick her up. How could she know that such a big incident had happened to the historian.

Shi Xiangyun immediately took a car to the current residence of Aunt Shi's family. The girls couldn't help crying when they saw her, but a few days later, Shi Xiangyun returned to Jia's house.

Now the Shi family is living a difficult life, the women have no money, Shi Xiangyun's two cousins ​​are not married, and the family has undergone great changes, the Shi family's aunt is not very pleasant to speak.Xiangyun grew up with her parents, even though she was not as close to the Jia family as her aunt was in her heart, but when her aunt blamed her for her bad luck, she overcame the Wei family and her two uncles. She sent back to Jia's house.
