Concubine's Handbook of Good Life in Ancient Times

Chapter 219

"Don't be like this, although the taste is not good, this thing is a good thing."

Seeing Mei Xia showing a tangled look, Shu Ning smiled, otherwise, why are foreigners and those nomads stronger than Han people?Isn't it because they eat meat and drink milk?

"My servant also heard from Mei Dong that it is indeed a good thing, but its taste is too strange, no one would like to drink it."

Mei Xia had an expression that she couldn't bear this smell, and successfully made Shu Ning laugh.

After playing around for a while, Shu Ning felt tired, so she went into the room to rest.When the queen came over, she didn't see Shuning, but she knew she was asleep again.

As her belly got bigger and bigger, Shu Ning spent most of her time sleeping every day.

"See the Empress."

The guarding mother Bai and Mei Xia lowered their voices, although they knew that the master was sleeping deeply, but pregnant women were easily startled.

"Get up! How is the imperial concubine today?" Because Shu Ning was about to give birth, the queen would come over every day to take care of her.

"Reporting to Empress Empress, everything is fine today, master, and I even drank a bowl of hot fresh milk just now!"

Mei Xia said with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

"It's hard for the imperial concubine to drink it, it's different to be a mother." The queen also tasted it, and she really didn't like to stop drinking it after tasting it once.

Unexpectedly, the imperial concubine persisted for several months, and never stopped drinking a bowl every day.

"That's what the master said. She suffered a great crime for the sake of the little master. After the little master is born, she must beat the little master first to vent her anger." Mei Xia said what Shuning said in a joke, which made the queen laugh endlessly.

"Pfft, how can such a mother dare to beat my son, I can't spare her."

The queen sat by the bed and pulled the quilt for the noble concubine.

The noble concubine herself said that this child will be the child of both of them after birth, and when the little prince is one year old, he will stay in Qifeng Palace for half a month and Changning Palace for half a month, and the two will raise the child together.

So the queen is looking forward to the child in the womb of the imperial concubine.

As for the emperor, he has no objection. Anyway, in his heart, the three emperors will be canonized as princes when they are born, and it is reasonable to raise them under the queen's name, and it also makes those who want to be a dragon From the looks of it, the noble concubine is the heir apparent recognized by the emperor and empress.

The emperor didn't say anything, and the queen mother naturally couldn't say anything.Originally, her old man was partial to the noble concubine, and the grandson born to the noble concubine would of course be her favorite grandson.

The people above have said so, who would dare to object to the people below?It is against the rules to say that the son of a noble concubine cannot be raised under the queen's name?Who said this?Aren't you afraid of being demoted by the emperor?Whoever the emperor wants to raise the prince can let whoever raises the prince. This rule is not worth mentioning in front of the imperial power.

The third day of the third month of the lunar calendar is the Shangsi Festival, which is a festival to commemorate the Yellow Emperor.According to legend, March [-]rd is the birthday of the Yellow Emperor. There has been a saying in China since ancient times that "on February [-]nd, the dragon raises its head; on March [-]rd, Xuanyuan is born".

Early in the morning, Shu Ning felt her stomach hurt.

Soon she was sent to the delivery room arranged by the side hall, and the whole Changning Palace was busy and orderly.There was no trace of confusion, which made those who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity anxious.

There is no chance to make a move here, how can the imperial concubine die with the child in her womb?
At this time, Hou Lin watched more closely. Simei and the two nuns stared at the delivery room, and his task was to watch what happened outside the delivery room.

When the Empress Dowager and Empress arrived after receiving the news, they saw the Changning Palace orderly welcoming their upcoming little master.

"The third day of March, Shangsi Festival. Today is a good day, and the concubine's choice of a child is too coincidental."

A concubine who rushed over whispered to the people around her.

"Pull it down."

The queen mother raised her brows, and someone dragged her down.

At this time, no one said that the imperial concubine was not good, and the queen mother would not spare her lightly.How dangerous it is for a woman to give birth to a child, the empress dowager knows better than anyone else that she gave birth to the emperor.I also understand that the women in the harem don't like the imperial concubine, that's why the empress dowager has an outburst.

The imperial concubine just now was Jieyu, so she was dragged out like this. Even if the queen mother didn't punish her again, she would lose all her pride and face.Thinking about it for a long time, she didn't dare to come out again, what a shame!
Shu Ning stayed in the delivery room, enduring wave after wave of labor pains, her forehead was already covered with sweat.Mei Qiu kept wiping her son's sweat with a handkerchief, and also gave her a massage, hoping to relieve her pain a little.

"Master, can you still hold back?"

Shuning opened her eyes, glanced at Mei Qiu, and then closed them again.Now her energy is all on enduring the labor pain, she has no energy to answer Mei Qiu's words at all.But Mei Qiu understood, after all, she was the master who had served her for many years, so she could easily guess what she wanted to express in every word and action.

The master is telling her that she can bear it, so don't worry!

"Mei Qiu, feed your master a bowl of eggs, or you won't have the strength to be half born."

Mei Dong asked someone to prepare some food, and Mei Chun delivered it in person.

"you help me."

Mei Qiu helped Shuning up, the master didn't have much strength in his body now, even if he had, he had to save it for delivery, so at this time, he had to rely on them.

After eating a bowl of eggs, Shuning began to gather strength again.
