Chapter 855 But Concubine Sun's delivery process was not smooth
In reality, it tells everyone that Shen Zhinian was responsible for everything from Concubine Sun's pregnancy to her delivery.
If anything happens to the mother or the heir, Shen Zhinian will be held primarily responsible!
what?
It is said that although Shen Zhinian and Concubine Sun are not biological sisters, their relationship is better than that of biological sisters. How could she possibly harm Concubine Sun?
If it was in the past, people might think so. But now... those who believe this are too naive.
Many people glanced at Concubine Zhuang vaguely.
After all, Concubine Hao and Concubine Zhuang were like sisters when they were alive. Who would have thought that it was Concubine Zhuang who harmed her like that in the end...
How do we know that Imperial Concubine Chen treats Imperial Concubine Sun differently from Imperial Concubine Zhuang treats Imperial Concubine Hao?
Concubine Xue glanced at Concubine Chun coldly, and said in a chilly tone: "Giving birth is difficult for women. Even if Concubine Chen has been taking good care of Concubine Sun, no one can guarantee that there won't be any accidents during the process. Why do you have to use words to embarrass Concubine Chen and make her lose face?"
"Of course, I believe that Concubine Sun is blessed with good fortune and will give birth smoothly!"
What this means is that if an accident occurs, it is God’s will and no one can be blamed.
Concubine Chun lowered her head, seeming a little aggrieved: "Empress Xue, I am only praying for Concubine Sun and the heir to the throne. It doesn't mean as much as you say. You really think too much..."
"okay!"
Nangong Xuanyu glanced at her impatiently: "You guys are making my head hurt, be quiet!"
Concubine Chun responded "yes" and didn't dare to say anything else, but a dark color was surging in her black eyes.
Ah!
She didn't believe that there was any such thing as sisterly love in the harem.
If Concubine Sun gave birth to a prince this time and was made the head of a palace, it would be enough to threaten the status of Concubine Chen and the Fourth Prince. Would their relationship still be so good?
It would be fun if they turned against each other...
In fact, it was not just Concubine Chun who was present; many people thought so.
Some people even secretly wondered, if this was true, would Concubine Chen take action against Concubine Sun?
After all, it's normal for a woman to have an accident during childbirth...
In the delivery room.
The palace maids came in and out, constantly changing the clean hot water.
Where the blood was poured, dark red stains meandered along the cracks in the blue bricks, looking very much like dried rouge on the palace walls.
Concubine Sun clutched the pillow tightly, and her knuckles turned white from holding it so tightly.
As she experienced intense contractions, she was in so much pain that cold sweat ran down her forehead. A few strands of hair, wet with sweat, stuck to Concubine Sun's pale face, making her look even more vulnerable.
Only this time did Lady Sun realize that giving birth was such a painful thing...
She was in so much pain...so much pain...
How did Concubine Chen survive when she gave birth to Xu...
Shen Zhinian personally took a handkerchief and kept wiping the sweat from Concubine Sun's forehead.
Nanny Lin said beside her: "Young Master, take a deep breath! Exhale slowly, and then take another deep breath!"
Concubine Sun did as she said, but she still felt the pain: "It hurts... It really hurts... Ah!!! Sister Concubine Chen, I can't stand it anymore, it really hurts!!!"
Nanny Lin hurriedly said, "Young Master, don't shout!"
"Once you have used up all your energy shouting, you will have no energy left to produce!"
With one hand, Shen Zhinian tightly grasped Concubine Sun's hand; with the other hand, he took the handkerchief folded by Zhu'er and stuffed it into Concubine Sun's mouth to prevent her from biting her tongue.
"Don't be afraid!"
"I am here, and Nanny Lin is here too. Just do as she says, and everything will be fine soon!"
Concubine Sun bit the handkerchief tightly and stopped screaming, but the blue veins on her forehead were still bulging!
She followed Nanny Lin's rhythm, exerting force in waves.
By the end of the Chou hour, the child had not yet been born.
Childbirth is difficult for women. When Nanny Lin was delivering babies outside the palace, she saw many women who were in pain for a whole day and night.
She was not panicking at the moment, and continued to persuade Concubine Sun: "Yes, this is the rhythm. My lady, keep going!"
Another wave of severe pain came, and Concubine Sun let go of Shen Zhinian's hand and grabbed the quilt under her.
Because with her current strength, if she continued to grab Sister Concubine Chen, her nails would definitely dig into her flesh.
Sister Concubine Chen is so good to her, how could she hurt her?
Even if it's unintentional.
Outside the delivery room, although Nangong Xuanyu didn't say anything, he kept pacing back and forth, revealing his nervousness.
Concubine Zhuang said in a gentle voice: "Your Majesty, this is Concubine Sun's first child. I'm afraid she won't be able to be born for a while. You don't have to be too anxious."
"It's already late at night, and you still have to attend court in the morning. Why don't you go back and rest first? When Concubine Sun safely gives birth to the royal heir, I will send someone to tell you the good news as soon as possible."
There is actually nothing wrong with what Concubine Zhuang said.
After all, throughout the dynasties, few emperors would personally watch over the birth of a concubine in the palace, unless the other party was an extremely favored concubine.
But there have been several problematic children in the palace, and Nangong Xuanyu has so few offspring, how can he not care?
Although the fact that the Fifth Prince did not live past the age of twenty was not caused by Concubine Zhuang, it was still related to her. It would be strange if the Emperor liked her at this time.
Nangong Xuanyu glanced at Concubine Zhuang and said coldly: "It's not your child, of course you don't care!"
Concubine Zhuang took a step back, her eyes slightly red: "Your Majesty...Although the eldest prince is gone, I was also a child in my time, how can I not care about the child..."
"I am just worried that you are too tired..."
Thinking of the eldest prince who died young, Nangong Xuanyu seemed to realize that what he said to Concubine Zhuang was a bit harsh.
However, Nangong Xuanyu moved his lips, but ultimately said nothing, just looking at the delivery room anxiously.
Concubine Zhuang lowered her head and pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
Many people watched this scene with some sadness in their hearts...
Concubine Zhuang lost her child very early, and now she has to watch her husband care so much about another woman giving birth.
As women themselves, they could understand Concubine Zhuang's feelings.
Others curled their lips in disdain.
Concubine Zhuang is not the only woman in the palace who has lost a child. Who is she pretending to be for?
Isn't it just to win your Majesty's sympathy?
Others felt that it was unlucky that Concubine Sun was giving birth in the delivery room while she was crying outside!
Soon, it was already halfway through the Yin hour, and there was still no good news coming from the delivery room.
Nangong Xuanyu called out to a little palace maid who came out to pour out the blood, frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
"But Concubine Sun's delivery process was not smooth?"
The little palace maid had never experienced sex, so how could she understand giving birth? She could only say, "Your Majesty, I guess... I guess it takes a long time for a woman to give birth..."
