The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 227 Safe Production
Wen Xianqing's mother moved into Yikun Palace half a month in advance, and now she arrived earlier than Wen Xianqing.

She helped Nian Shilan into the prepared delivery room. Yinzhen and Ulanara, who received the news, also rushed to Yikun Palace.

"The Emperor has arrived~, the Empress has arrived~"

Yinzhen hurriedly stepped into the door of Yikun Palace and spoke to the people who were already kneeling on the ground.

"Everyone, get up. Concubine Hua's birth is the most important matter. There is no need to dwell on trivial matters such as paying respects. Everyone, go about your own business. The Queen and I will be waiting here."

After Yinzhen and Ulanara sat down, everyone in the harem came over after hearing the news.

Even the Fourteenth Yunzhi and the Seventeenth Yunli, who had not been under Yinzhen's nose for some time, came.

When Yunli saw Yinzhen, it was like a mouse seeing a cat.

Ever since he made a fuss last time, Yinzhen informed his teacher and gave Yunli a lot more homework.

When Empress Dowager De heard that her beloved youngest son was suffering from schoolwork every day, she felt really distressed. However, when she thought of Yinzhen, she really didn't know what to say.

Yunli was as polite as usual. The boy, already fourteen years old, had grown much taller and his face looked more handsome.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to the Emperor and the Empress. Long live the Emperor, and long live the Empress."

Yunli performed the kneeling ceremony. Yunzhi stood aside, at a loss for a moment. When he met Yinzhen's eyes, he immediately knelt down and said "good luck".

Yinzhen snorted coldly and said to Yunli.

"Why are you here if you don't study hard? I heard from the teacher that you have made some progress in your studies recently. This is obviously the result of your hard work in the past few days."

Yunli was not close to his brother, but he never expected that he would become emperor.

"Reporting to the Emperor, I, along with my Seventeenth Brother, have come to pay my respects to Mother today.

I didn't want to hear the palace maid report that Concubine Hua was about to give birth.

My mother was seriously ill, but she was still concerned about her grandson.

I, your humble servant, have come here at the request of my mother to say hello to Concubine Hua.

Now that my brother is here, I think my mother can rest assured.

I will take my leave with my Seventeenth Brother now and go back to inform Mother so that she can rest assured."

Yunli was puzzled. He hadn't even had a word with the emperor yet, and Yunli wanted to run away.

Maybe he had done something wrong again and was afraid that it would be exposed if the emperor asked him more questions.

Yunli was still guessing, but he saw Yunli pulling his sleeve and signaling him to leave quickly.

Yunzhi pulled Yunli and hurriedly tried to leave Yikun Palace, but bumped into Concubine Duan who arrived late.

Concubine Duan cried out "Ouch!" and Jixiang was already protecting her.

"Mom, be careful!"

Yunzhi looked up and hurriedly apologized.

"Hello, Concubine Duan. I was reckless just now and accidentally bumped into you. Are you okay?"

When Concubine Duan saw that it was Yunli, she shook her head slightly.

"I am fine. But I didn't see clearly just now and bumped into the Fourteenth Prince. Is the Prince okay?"

Yunyu nodded.

"Okay, I'm fine. I have to go back to see my mother in a hurry, so I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, he pulled Yunli away again.

Jixiang looked at their departing backs, turned back and muttered softly.

"Really? Even though he's a prince, he's still just a boy. He's so reckless, I don't know if he's hurt the queen."

Concubine Duan smiled and raised her foot to enter the Yiku Palace, but she felt as if she stepped on something.

Concubine Duan moved her feet and motioned for Jixiang to look at what was on the ground.

Jixiang bent down and picked up a small paper bag, which looked like a bag of medicine powder.

Jixiang hesitated.

"My Lady, this should have been dropped by the Fourteenth Prince just now. Would you like me to have someone send it back to him?"

Concubine Duan was puzzled, but she quietly put the paper package away and told Jixiang, "Don't tell anyone else about this. I don't know what this is yet. If it's not something that belongs to the Fourteenth Prince, it would be bad if it gets out."

Zhen Huan mingled among the concubines, waiting for Concubine Hua to give birth together with the Emperor and the Empress.

She looked at Yinzhen from afar through the crowd.

During the selection of concubines, Zhen Huan did not dare to look directly at the emperor according to the rules, and therefore she never saw the emperor's appearance clearly.

When they met by chance in the Imperial Garden that day, she lowered her eyes and dared not look at the emperor.

Today, taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhen Huan saw clearly that the emperor had a handsome face and a tall figure, a rare good-looking appearance.

No wonder Sister Mei’s heart and eyes have been filled with the Emperor all day long since she started serving the Emperor.

Whenever I talk about it with myself, my face always turns red.

Someone beside him whispered.

"Empress Hua is so lucky. Not only does she have a distinguished family background, but the Emperor also dotes on her so much.

Her appearance is also the best in the palace, which makes people really envious. "

Zhen Huan pretended not to care and tilted her head, and found that it was Noble Lady Fucha who was whispering with another lady beside her.

This young lady looked thinner than others, and always had a shy look on her face.

The material she was wearing was the same one that the Empress had gifted to all the newlyweds when they first entered the palace.

Zhen Huan remembered that during the selection, she always wore clothes that were neither new nor old, and the materials were no longer popular in the capital.

An Da Ying listened to Noble Lady Fucha's words, looked around quietly, and when he saw that he had not attracted anyone's attention, he spoke softly.

"Sister Fucha, if you discuss the master in such an occasion, I'm afraid you will be criticized."

Noble Lady Fucha glanced at An Da Ying with disdain.

"Look at how petty you are. I didn't say anything, but you got so scared.

Besides, the real masters of the palace are the two sitting above.
Since when did a concubine become considered a master.

To show respect, we can call her "Empress".

But in the final analysis, she is just a concubine like us.

I am the mistress, she is also the mistress, where does the master come from?"

The speaker may not have intended it, but the listener may have taken it to heart. An Da Ying did not dare to say anything, but Jixiang who was passing by heard what he said.

Nian Shilan had been gritting her teeth tightly, not even uttering a single moan. Only when the pain became unbearable did she let out a muffled groan.

Songzhi was extremely anxious.

"My Lord, if it hurts, just scream! If you don't scream, how can the Emperor understand how difficult it is for you to give birth!"

Wen Xianqing's mother, Wen Liu, also said.

"Yes, madam, what Miss Songzhi said makes sense. If you feel pain, just shout it out."

Nian Shilan had just recovered from a period of pain, and her head and face were covered in sweat. She smiled with difficulty and said.

"I can bear this little pain. I never cried out when it hurt more than this.

The child of this palace is born for myself, and it is also the one I wanted to have.

I don’t want to use this to seek mercy from the Emperor.”

Yinzhen was sitting in the main hall of the Yiku Palace, listening to Su Peisheng's report that there was no movement in the delivery room.

Little did people know that Nian Shilan had listened to Wen Xianqing's advice some time ago and walked more often every day, and the birth of this baby went exceptionally smoothly.

The happy Wen Liu was also smiling from ear to ear in the delivery room, and kept praising Concubine Hua as a truly blessed woman.

Yinzhen stood up and slowly walked out of the delivery room. He was also puzzled. Other women would cry out in pain louder and louder during childbirth, but why did Shilan not say a word?

Yinzhen waited quietly, and saw the door of the delivery room slowly open. A palace maid came out hurriedly and knelt in front of Yinzhen.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! Concubine Hua has given birth safely!"

Before the palace maid could say anything else, Yinzhen only heard a loud baby cry coming from the delivery room.

The banker is the banker. Guess whether Hua Pangpang will give birth to a boy or a girl. Bet on it.
