Chapter 52: Spring Breeze Handrail Revlon (2)

I looked at the smooth and muddy ground on the ground, and in the narrow light that penetrated in, I saw my vague figure. The palm of his hand hurts, and he doesn't want to be in this palace anymore, but this is also good for him.
I smiled helplessly at my shadow, turned and left, and Shen Xiyao's voice came from a distance, but I ignored what he said. As long as it is good to Xihe, whatever is good.
It was night, Shen Xiyao stayed with me. Not long after she fell asleep, a maid came over anxiously to spread a message.
"The emperor," I am familiar with the lady's voice, which is Fei Ran beside Concubine Liu. "The emperor, Concubine Liu is about to give birth."
I sat up suddenly, and Shen Xiyao beside me had woke up, his expression nervous and anxious.
I took the clothes and quickly put them on for him, and I put on a coat and followed him towards Zhaoyang Palace.
A guard was leading the way with a string of palace lanterns. There was darkness all around, and only his broad back in front of him could be seen, as well as the dim light.
His steps are hurried, I can't see his face, he walked in a hurry, the night wind blew his dark blue robe and floated, like the shadow of the wind in the dark night.
It didn't take long to arrive at Zhaoyang Palace, and only when I walked outside the door, I saw that the inside was brightly lit, and a large number of palace ladies were busy going in and out.
I heard a heart-piercing shout all the way, so sharp, I couldn't help but shiver, and my heart was tightened.
Shen Xiyao's face suddenly turned pale, and his footsteps became more hurried.
I followed him to the door of Feixu Hall, the shouts became more and more stern, and I saw the worry and expectations on his face.
He raised his foot and was about to go in, I stretched out my hand to stop him. He glared at me as if to get angry.
I took a deep breath. This was an expression I had never seen on his face. He cared about Concubine Liu, or rather, cared about this child.
"The emperor, this blood room is an unlucky place, the emperor cannot enter." I said loudly.
But the expression on his face told me that he didn't listen at all, so he pushed me easily, but the force was not small, I staggered and grabbed the door frame, barely falling down.
His expression became flustered, and he wanted to reach out, but his eyes turned to the door again, and a hesitant expression flashed across his face.
There was another startling cry from inside.
Concubine Liu shouted: "The emperor, the emperor, where are you..."
The voice gradually decreased, and he pushed the door open.
I stepped forward and knelt before him, blocking the door.
I didn't look up, I didn't dare to look at his expression, I knew it would be Thunder, "Emperor, this is the rule of the ancestor..."
I slowed down and looked up at him slightly.
He was expressionless, just looking at the door that had opened.
I feel cold in my palms: "The emperor, the concubines will sit in Zhaoyang Palace. With the blessing of the emperor and God, the concubine Liu will be able to give birth smoothly."
Knocking his head on the cold ground, his palms were slightly sweaty.
"Ah!" The painful cry came again, and Shen Xiyao pulled me up, alternating hesitation and determination on his face.
Finally he pressed his hands on my shoulders, his eyes were trusting and firm: "I will leave it to you."
I nodded and walked into the door of Feixu Hall.
"Strong, hard." The midwife's voice came from inside, and I walked in.
The maid who was serving was about to salute, and I snorted: "When is the time, go do your own thing."
When she walked to the bedside, Concubine Liu was sweating, and her hands tightly grasped two sturdy cloth belts hanging from the top of the bed. The cloth belts were wrapped around her pale hands a few times.
When she exerted force, the joints of her hands were white, her hair was messy, her forehead wet with sweat stuck to her forehead, and her eyes were full of bloodshot eyes because of her force.
"Strong." The midwife's voice came again: "Strong, it's coming."
When Concubine Liu looked up and saw me, the expression on her face changed a little. Her eyes were hate, jealous, unwilling, but still proud.
I ignored the smugness in her eyes. It is still unclear whether it is a man or a woman. Even if it is a boy, it does not matter how powerful I am in the Ling family to the extent that I am now favored.
I half-bended and said to her: "The emperor is waiting for your news outside. Concubine Liu has to do more."
Concubine Liu gasped heavily, and Yinya bit her hard, and her body was half lifted.
A cry of "Wow" came from the baby, and she was finally born smoothly.
Concubine Liu's strength was exhausted at this time, but she still kept her eyes open and looked at the midwife expectantly.
"Congratulations Niangniang, Hexi Niangniang." The midwife knelt before the bed: "Is a little princess."
Concubine Liu widened her eyes in disbelief with an unwilling look. Her face turned from red to white, and she sighed. As soon as she softened, she fell on the bed, her eyes closed tightly, but there were tears like pearls. Trickle down.
She fell asleep without even looking at the child.
The child has been washed and wrapped in soft silk, she fell asleep sweetly. This is the first heir of my Emperor Zhangxuan, and the princess of my Daxi.
I looked at her pink face, and a feeling I had never felt before rose in my heart. I wanted to hug her but didn't know how to hug her, for fear of breaking her.
Seeing Concubine Liu closed her eyes, the midwife thought she was very tired and rested. Seeing my love for the little princess, she hurried over to teach me how to hold the baby.
I followed her with a smile, and was about to hug the little princess when Concubine Liu suddenly opened her eyes. She looked at me with excitement and anger.
"You are not allowed to hold my child, it's all you, all you..."
She burst into tears before she finished speaking, and my outstretched hand froze in the air.
Concubine Liu looked at me fiercely: "Now you are satisfied, I gave birth to a princess, haha..."
She laughed desperately, her eyes only glanced at the infant child and then turned to me, she looked at me carefully, a trembling smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
I just looked at her coldly, and the maid around me had already knelt down in fright.
I took a step, the golden step on my head shook, and a dazzling light flashed across Liu Fei’s pale face. I looked at her, and she stopped talking. I waved my hand, and the palace ladies retreated to the gauze. Outside the curtain.
I lowered my voice and said to Concubine Liu: "This palace doesn't care if you give birth to a boy or a girl. This palace is the middle palace. All the children in the harem are children of this palace. Even if you give birth to a boy, this palace It's also his mother's queen. You remember."
My tone was chilling, and I saw Concubine Liu's expression freeze.
There was panic and unhappiness on her face. I stood up straight, supported some slippery steps with my hand, and said softly: "Last time you hit the main palace in Kunning Palace, this palace doesn't care about you anymore. , This time you have just finished giving birth, your physical strength is weak and your consciousness is blurred, my palace just pretends that you haven't heard anything. But next time..."
My voice raised a little: "My palace won't think so." After I said that, I turned around, took a step and then turned back and smiled: "Liu Ruxu, you are no longer the concubine Liu who was the emperor's only favor at the time. ."
I smiled and left her alone on the bed. The soft green brocade was set against her face as earthy, no longer beautiful and beautiful.
I held the child and walked out the door, and the night breeze was blowing, and the fragrance of flowers mixed with Zhaoyang Palace slowly diffused. It was no longer cold, but mixed with warmth.
Shen Xiyao sat in the main hall, with his head in one hand, without lighting, my long shadow was cast on the smooth ground, and by the bright moonlight, I saw the exhaustion on his face. Walking silently in front of him, the maid behind him lit a candle, and the main hall was suddenly bright as day.
I knelt down gently with a smile, "The emperor," I said softly: "Congratulations, Concubine Liu gave birth to a little princess. Both mother and daughter are safe. Now Concubine Liu has gone to sleep, the emperor can rest assured."
His face brightens, and his eyes are full of smiles. This is his first time as a father. Although he prefers to be a prince, his excitement and excitement are certain.
He walked quickly to my side, took the child and held it in his arms. I looked at him in a clumsy posture and laughed, and he also raised his head and smiled at me.
For an instant, I suddenly felt a strange warmth, which was fleeting, and I couldn't catch it.
Standing beside him, looking at him with tender eyes, he shook his head and smiled, with the corners of his mouth rising.
I stretched out my hand and pulled the little quilt on the child's body. Green fingers flickered in front of his eyes. He looked at the child and said unintentionally, "Give me a prince, okay?"
I didn't answer, I just smiled, took the child from his hand and hugged it in his arms, gently swayed the child to coax the child, and then said softly: "The emperor, give the little princess a name."
He looked at the little princess, the child woke up, did not cry, looked at him with big eyes, and looked at me from time to time, very cute.
Shen Xi and I looked out, a round of bright moon in the sky, bright and soft light shining all over our eyes.
Shen Xiyao said, "Linglong."
I looked at him and blurted out: "But under the crystal curtain, looking at Qiuyue exquisitely, it's really great."
He looked at me and smiled, and I lowered my head to tease Linglong in my arms.
"The emperor, tomorrow will be an early court, the emperor will go back and settle down earlier. Here is the concubine."
He gave me a deep look, full of tenderness: "Don't overwork yourself."
I smiled softly and watched his back disappear outside Zhaoyang Hall. I took a long breath and arranged the little princess's affairs.
In the next few days, Shen Xiyao went down and came to Kunning Palace. I was holding her with the exquisite nurse and teasing her.
Concubine Liu never got up because of her postpartum weakness, and she couldn't get out of bed during confinement, so Linglong stayed in my Kunning Palace first.
For a while, there were many more maids and maids in Kunning Palace, so it was so lively.
Concubine Liu didn't want this in her heart, but I was a queen, and Shen Xiyao wanted me to take Linglong first, and send Linglong back after Concubine Liu's confinement had recovered.
Therefore, Shen Xiyao always came to me to see Linglong first, and only went to Zhaoyang Palace to visit Concubine Liu when there were not many affairs in the country. I love Linglong very much. Although she looks like Concubine Liu, it doesn't prevent me from liking her.
At noon one day, I was sitting in front of the window embroidering a small belly, embroidering flying flowers on the pale blue silk with light pink thread, Linglong was in the cradle beside me, and the nurse gently coaxed her to sleep. .
Because of the hot weather, but the children can't see the cold, the ice sculptures in Kunning Palace have been changed to small ones, and there are no places close to Linglong.
I embroidered thinly, stitch by stitch, the afternoon sun shining into Xi Nuang Pavilion became gentle, I stopped to look at Linglong beside me from time to time, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Niang Niang," Zhang Dehai came in. I didn't stop the needle and thread. Zhang Dehai often came over the past few days. Sometimes Shen Xiyao asked him to pass me a message when he wanted to meet with the minister.
I did not look up and lazily said, "What's the matter?"
"If you return to Niangniang, the emperor asks Niangniang to take the little princess to Yanbo Pavilion, where he will be waiting for you." Zhang Dehai said.
I was shocked, Yan Boting.
But there was still a faint expression on his face: "I see."
Pretending to be indifferent, he asked again: "How did the emperor go to Yanbo Pavilion."
"The emperor and Prince Yu are playing chess in Yanbo Pavilion, and want to let Prince Yu meet the little princess."
I nodded, but my heart became confused for no reason.
