Chapter 499
In the Chen Kingdom Palace.
In the room, Du Yuanxiu, who was embroidering the child's cloak, was sweating profusely. The maid came in with tea, "Madam, why are you sweating so much? I will send some ice." He took out a handkerchief and wiped the forehead of the woman with her stomach protruding.
"No need, it's better to blow some cool breeze." Du Yuanxiu caressed her stomach lovingly. The day of giving birth is not far away, and her indescribable expectation seems to be brewing a winter flower bud that is finally ushering in At the moment when the spring is in full bloom, I want to see what this child looks like early.
I hope to be like Your Highness.
At this time, there was a sound outside, and Du Yuanxiu looked out. "What happened?"
"Slaves go and have a look."
Looking at the leaving back, Du Yuanxiu's face showed a little loneliness.I wonder if His Highness knows that he is about to give birth?She couldn't remember which day was the last time His Highness came to see her.
Whenever this happens, Du Yuanxiu always comforts himself that it's not that Dongfang Xu doesn't care about her. After all, the tonic in this palace has never been cut off, and he will occasionally order someone to bring a word or two of greetings.
Perhaps this is His Highness's implicit tenderness, even if he cannot give himself a complete heart.
It would be a lie to say that she has no regrets and expectations in her heart, but Du Yuanxiu feels that she can still see Dongfang Xu now, which is enough to make her feel happy.
"Your Majesty..." The maid finally came back, but her face was a little ugly.
"what happened?"
The maid hesitated, her gaze fell on Du Yuanxiu's stomach, as if she was considering whether to say something or not.
Such an expression is the easiest to make people suspicious, "But... what happened to Your Highness?"
"No, it's not, it's just..." The maid took a deep breath, maybe it's still too late to tell the empress, "Your Majesty, His Majesty is preparing to leave the palace."
Leaving the palace?The movements in Du Yuanxiu's hands stopped immediately, as if she had thought of something, then a wry smile appeared on her face, "Yes, His Majesty has already sent a team to Yi Country to pick up the princess back to the palace..."
And... the Imperial Physician.So His Highness couldn't bear it, and wanted to go out of the palace to greet him in person?
She couldn't help but grab her clothes, and wanted the child to see her father the first time she was born. It seemed impossible.
"Your Majesty, why don't you go and talk to Your Highness..." Although Your Majesty doesn't say anything these days, she can tell that Your Majesty misses His Highness very much, and now is the time when Her Majesty needs His Highness the most.
Du Yuanxiu was about to speak, when suddenly her face changed, the severe pain in her stomach was like thunder falling from the sky, she suddenly forgot to move, a voice was stuck in her throat and she couldn't utter it.
"My lady, what's wrong with you? My lady!"
……
"Your Highness, please consider carefully. We have already sent two generals to go there. Your Highness really doesn't need to risk your life!"
The handsome man was dressed in a military uniform, and his handsome face was much thinner, but he had a shrewd ability and majesty.He just looked ahead indifferently, as if he didn't hear the words of the general beside him.
Dongfang Xu even dreamed of waiting for this day. Tonight, the people he sent would bring Yunshu and Yongning back, but he still couldn't rest assured, and he didn't want to wait any longer.
He wanted Yunshu to see his sincerity, and even more so that he would personally hold her hand back to Chenguo Palace.
"set off!"
"Your Highness..."
At this time, the Grand Duke rushed in anxiously from the outside, "Your Highness! The side concubine is about to give birth, and Mrs. Wen has already passed away! Your Highness, hurry up and have a look!"
Du Yuanxiu?Dongfang Xu frowned, "Isn't there still a few days left?"
"This... I don't know, your Highness, hurry up and take a look!"
The general on the side breathed a sigh of relief, this kid came in time!
Dongfang Xu frowned, how could it be such a coincidence?It happened to be today...
"Your Highness, the prince is urgent!"
Dongfang Xu paused for a moment, then lifted the hem of his clothes and walked to the door and stopped. The Grand Duke was overjoyed, His Highness finally figured it out!
"Order all the imperial doctors to wait for orders. The princess is about to return to the palace, and this hall will pick her up in person!"
What? !The Grand Duke's expression changed, and he exchanged a glance with the general, but Dongfang Xu had already disappeared from their sight.
In the house, the painful wailing was louder and louder.
"My lady, breathe in! Breathe in!"
"Ah - child...my child..." Du Yuanxiu's face was pale, her hands were tightly grasping the bed sheet, her hair was sticking to her face in a mess, and her face was wet with uncontrollable tears.
Wen Po's hands were covered with blood, but she didn't see the child's figure for a long time, "What should I do, go and report to His Highness!"
"But... His Highness has left the palace..."
What? !Everyone was at a loss, this is His Highness's first child, if something goes wrong, they can't afford it!
For some reason, even though the severe pain had eroded Du Yuanxiu's nerves, she could clearly hear the words of the stable women, His Highness, he... has left the palace.Isn't it the expected result?But why now, she felt that she was so fragile.
Child, it's not that your father doesn't love you, but...but that your mother is useless...
Consciousness gradually blurred, and Du Yuanxiu's hands had already lost strength.
"Mistress? Mistress!"
The prince's team slowly drove out of the palace gate. On the horseback, the man's gaze was like a torch, and he only focused on that distant place.The team was huge, the flag of Chen Kingdom was flying in the wind, and the sound of footsteps came from the ears.
"Your Highness! Your Highness—" behind him, the sound of hooves approached quickly, and a guard rushed forward like lightning.
Dongfang Xu pulled the reins suspiciously, and in the blink of an eye the guards had already rushed in front of him, got off the horse and knelt down, "His Royal Highness, there is news from the palace that the side concubine is having a difficult labor, and she is dying at the moment."
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the generals around him suddenly changed.
"Your Highness, the lives of the empress and the prince are of utmost importance! Please believe that the general and others will bring Her Royal Highness back safely!"
Dongfang Xu held the rein tightly, Du Yuanxiu had a difficult labor?Obviously the imperial doctors said before that her fetal image was normal, how could it suddenly...
"Your Highness, Your Highness, Empress, please return to the palace as soon as possible!" This matter had already reached the ears of Empress Chen, and Dongfang Xu's eyes flashed, "Mother Queen? Who told her!"
"The Empress has invited a sedan chair to drive her over..."
"The empress is inconvenient, how can I bother her?!" Dongfang Xu suddenly cooled down, but he knew that the empress was forcing him to go back.He pulled the rein heavily, "Go back to the palace!"
……
In the uterus, the maids are already busy.Pots of blood were brought out one after another. As soon as the queen entered the palace gate, she was so shocked by the scene before her that she turned pale.
"Meet the empress!"
"Exemption! How is the side concubine?"
Wen Po seemed a little incoherent, "Ma'am, she...isn't sober..."
"What do you mean not awake yet?! The side concubine has passed out?!" The queen has also experienced giving birth, so she naturally knows that such a situation is very dangerous, "No matter what method there is, we must keep the side concubine and the prince!"
"Yes, yes, the servant understands."
"Where is the prince? Why hasn't the prince come here yet!" The queen was angry. She knew Dongfang Xu's attitude towards Du Yuanxiu, and she had persuaded her, but the prince now has her own ideas, and there are some things that she can't force Yes, so these days, she can only turn a blind eye and close her eyes, caring for Du Yuanxiu on Dongfang Xu's behalf.
It's just that I didn't expect that the crown prince has gone too far this time!His wife is about to give birth, and he wants to leave the palace?Even if it was her own son, the queen decided not to help him again!
"Queen! Why are you out of the palace! Go back and rest, there are ministers here." Dongfang Xu saw the queen surrounded by everyone in the courtyard at a glance, and immediately opened the hem of his clothes to welcome her.
The queen's face was serious, "If the queen mother does not leave the palace, you have already left the capital, right? Prince, do you know that the side concubine is working hard to give birth to your child?!"
Dongfang Xu restrained his expression, but did not answer.
There is already resentment in his heart, Dongfang Xu doesn't know what he is resenting, blame God?I still complain that Du Yuanxiu just appeared at that time.All of this was not what he wanted, but fate tricked people.Now he just wants to welcome his beloved woman back to the palace in person, but God still refuses to give him this opportunity.
"...My son knows."
"Know? Why, don't you even want your own flesh and blood now?!" The queen felt that the man in front of her was a little strange. The death of the former emperor had indeed changed the prince. It's just that what the prince has done has greatly exceeded her imagination.
He is becoming more and more like an emperor, but also more and more ruthless like an emperor.
The queen once hoped that Dongfang Xu could become a wise king of the generation. Although she understood that sometimes extraordinary means were needed, the prince seemed to... began to rely on those extraordinary means.Perhaps in a short period of time, this vigorous and vigorous style can stabilize Chao Gang, but after a long time, it will naturally have its disadvantages.
"I know I'm wrong." Dongfang Xu lowered his head, his gaze unconsciously drifted towards the closed door, he always thought he could ignore it, but just now, if the guard hadn't told the Queen to leave the palace, he would have come back of.
Blood is thicker than water, although this child is not what he wants, but it is his child after all.Du Yuanxiu... I really owe her something.
But what she wanted, she couldn't give.The only thing he can give is the position of side concubine, as well as fine clothes and food.
"Ah—" Du Yuanxiu's scream suddenly came from the room.
"Bodhisattva bless! Bodhisattva bless! Madam, the side concubine may have woken up after knowing that His Highness is coming!" Wen Po happily came out to greet her, and the queen showed joy, "Quick, come in! We must protect their mother and child." Safety!"
This child Yuanxiu is indeed blessed.The queen has always believed that she loves the prince sincerely, otherwise how could she have such a feeling that the prince is back.
"Prince, the queen mother is here to tell you that if the imperial physician returns to the palace, the queen mother will not agree and ask you to make her the queen."
What?Dongfang Xu's eyes changed.
