Crown Prince Palace.
"Yunqing, you don't have to worry about me since you're pregnant. Father is going to die. As his son, I'm going to send him off for the last time. I'll be back in three days.”Tianyao said gently. It was rare for him to be so considerate.
"Your Highness, sadness comes sometimes. Remember not to worry too much. The child and I will wait for you to come back.”After saying that, Yun Qing tentatively held Tianyao's arm. Tianyao did not refuse and instead pulled her into his arms. Yun Qing was delighted. Ever since she married Tianyao, Tianyao had never hugged her like this. She raised her head and looked at Tianyao's sad side profile. Her heart ached.
Tianyao hugged Yun Qing tightly. Perhaps Yun Qing was the only person he could get close to in this world. Ever since Yun Qing married him, she had done everything for him. She had never quarreled or made a fuss, but he had not treated her well. It wasn't until his father passed away that he realized that there weren't many people in the world who could be in love with him. Looking at Yun Qing's sad and happy face, he blamed himself. Perhaps he had really neglected her from the beginning to the end. In the future, he would definitely make it up to her and dote on her. Thinking of this, she hugged Yun Qing even tighter.
On the second day, the majestic spirit delivery team set off. Tianyao was dressed in white and walked at the front with a cold expression. He turned around to look at Tian Ze's coffin and thought to himself," Imperial Father, Imperial Mother, you can finally reunite.
On the second day.
Yun Qing was sitting in the front hall, warming a charcoal stove. The weather was really cold. The palace maids had already set up three stoves, but it was still not warm.
Yan Qiu left the bedroom.
Yun Qing called her over." Sister, you're here. Come and sit with me. We sisters can chat and relieve our boredom."”
Yan Qiu nodded and sat beside Yun Qing.
"Older Sister sees that Younger Sister always wears thin clothes, Younger Sister also needs to put on more clothes. These few days it's very cold, Younger Sister must not get sick again.”Yun Qing looked concerned. In fact, Yun Qing no longer felt as disgusted with Yanqiu as he did when they first met. A woman was sent to a completely unfamiliar country like an object for the benefit of the country. Yun Qing sympathized with him. After a year of interaction, Tianyao seemed to treat Yanqiu like air and had never doted on her. Yan Qiu was neither servile nor overbearing. He did not fight for favor or play any tricks. Every day, she would play an unknown instrument in her room and sing a song that she didn't understand. Extremely indifferent.
"Elder sister has troubled herself. Yanqiu comes from the desert and is used to the wind and sand. This bit of cold is nothing to him. His sister was about to give birth in a few days, and His Highness was not by her side. She must be careful.”Yan Qiu said respectfully.
"Yes." Yun Qing rubbed his belly with a blissful expression.
At night, other than the palace servants who were on night watch, almost everyone in the palace was asleep.
Yun Qing lay on the bed with unbearable abdominal pain. She called out with difficulty," Yan 'er, Yan' er, call…call the midwife, I…I might be giving birth…"
Yan-er, who was napping at the side, was instantly awakened. She ran to Yun Qing's bed and saw Yun Qing's struggling and painful expression. She did not bother to put on her coat and ran to the bedroom door as fast as she could. She shouted," Someone, the Empress is going to give birth." Call the midwife." In an instant, the entire Crown Prince Palace seemed to have exploded. The palace maids and eunuchs were all busy. Yan Qiu was also awakened by the noise outside. She put on some clothes and went out to take a look. When the palace maid who was guarding outside the door saw that she had woken up, she said excitedly,"Consort consort niangniang, our future empress is going to give birth!”
Yan Qiu was nervous when he heard that." Quick, follow me to my sister's bedroom. The Crown Prince isn't here, so I have to stay by my sister's side to ensure that the mother and son are safe."”After saying that, he went straight to Yun Qing's bedroom.
Yun Qing was lying on the bed moaning in pain. The midwife kept comforting Yun Qing. "Empress, use force. Inhale, exhale, use force.”Yun Qing seemed to have lost consciousness because of the immense pain. He could not hear what the midwife was saying at all. He could only rely on his own feelings to keep exerting strength. "Niangniang, soon, the child's head is coming out, Niangniang, use more strength.”the midwife shouted. Yun Qing used the last bit of strength in his body.
A baby's cry resounded throughout the harem.
"Congratulations, Your Highness. It's a prince, a prince.”The midwife hugged the baby happily and laughed non-stop.
Outside the door, Yan Qiu was also delighted when she heard the child's cries.
"Carry it for bengong to see. Quick, let bengong take a look." Yun Qing stretched out his hand with all his might.
The midwife obediently handed the child over.
At this moment, a woman dressed in palace clothes blocked Yun Qing's path." The Empress has just given birth and needs to rest. Midwife, please take the Prince away first." Leave this to me." the woman ordered.
" This..." The midwife was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to do.
"I was sent by the empress to take care of the crown prince consort. My words are the empress's words. Do you dare to defy the imperial edict?”The woman looked aggressive.
Seeing the woman's imposing manner, the midwife could only say,""Empress, rest well. This old servant will carry the little prince down to rest first. This old servant will take his leave.”The midwife saw that the situation was not good and retreated with the newborn prince in her arms.
Seeing the midwife come out, Yan Qiu went up to her." How is the Crown Princess Consort? This is the little prince. Quick, let bengong take a look.”Yan Qiu looked at the baby wriggling in the swaddling clothes with joy. The midwife passed the child to Yan Qiu with trembling hands. Yan Qiu looked at the child with a face full of love." This child is so beautiful. Have you seen the Crown Princess Consort?"”
"Replying to the concubine consort, the crown prince consort…the crown prince consort…"
"What happened to the Crown Princess?" Yan Qiu asked as she coaxed the child.
"Crown Princess, she…"
"The crown prince consort is gone, the crown prince consort is gone. The palace maid Xiao Yan ran out of the house with a face full of fear.”He kept shouting," The Crown Princess is gone.”
Yan Qiu was shocked and handed the child to the midwife." What did you say? Say it again!"”
Xiao Yan knelt on the ground and said with a trembling voice," The Crown Princess Consort is gone…"
It took Yan Qiu a long time to recover from his shock. He rushed into the room and saw Yun Qing lying quietly on the bed. A palace maid was kneeling beside her. Seeing Yan Qiu come in, she cried and said," Your Highness the Secondary Consort, the Crown Princess Consort is gone. Your Highness, please accept my condolences. This servant will go to Feng Luan Hall to report the death to the Empress."”After saying that, he bowed to Yan Qiu and walked out of the room.
Yan Qiu walked to Yun Qing's bed mechanically. Looking at Yun Qing's pale face, there was no longer a trace of anger. Yan Qiu slowly held her cold hand. The people who were chatting with him in the evening were now unable to get up. Yan Qiu did not dare to imagine what would happen if Tianyao found out. The child had just been born and lost its mother. What would happen to the child? Thinking of this, Yan Qiu's tears kept falling like broken beads.
