"Your Highness, hold on a little longer. Po Wen, whom I sent for, will be here soon!"
Inside the room, the woman looked stunning, her black hair stuck to her snow-white cheeks with sweat.
Although she is still young and beautiful, this is her first time giving birth.
She gritted her teeth and still couldn't suppress the pain!
The eldest maids Wanxuan and Wanyin on the side gathered around the bed and encouraged her.
The two nuns standing outside asked the other palace attendants who were accompanying them to boil hot water and prepare scissors.
The sky gradually darkened, and the moon quietly emerged from the clouds.
There were two little eunuchs standing on the corridor not far away, listening to the heart-wrenching screams coming from inside the house from time to time, and murmuring in a low voice.
"Hey, tell me, will Concubine Qiao give birth to a prince or a princess this time?"
"She definitely wants to give birth to a little princess. A while ago, the emperor opened an altar to offer sacrifices to heaven in order to ask for a daughter!"
"It's strange for you to think that we have twenty-eight princes in a row, but we don't even have a little princess."
"I heard rumors that our Majesty killed too many evildoers and was violent and cruel. This is God punishing him. He wants a princess, but he won't give it to him!"
"Hush, you don't want your life! How dare you speak against His Majesty!"
…
In the Zen room——
The one who was tortured by the labor pains was none other than His Majesty's favorite concubine - Concubine Qiao.
She was pregnant for ten months and prayed every day to give birth to a daughter.
For no other reason than because Da Qi Emperor Gu Yihan said that whoever gives birth to a daughter will enjoy endless wealth and wealth in the future!
Everyone knew that she was the most favored concubine in the harem, but who knew that there were countless beauties in the harem.
She walks on thin ice day by day, fearing that the favor will be fleeting.
No... She was about to give birth, and she dragged her heavy body to Taishi Temple to pray for her wish to have a daughter.
However, as soon as I knelt on the futon, before I could kowtow, my stomach began to hurt.
Nowadays, the imperial concubine is about to give birth, which is a critical situation.
The temple was originally a pure place where no blood could be seen, but it had to free up a Zen room for Concubine Qiao to give birth.
The palace people were divided into two groups. Some went to ask the doctor Wen Po in the city and the palace, while others went to the palace to tell the emperor about this important event.
This is what happens when a boy or girl is born.
…
In the imperial palace, the Qianyuan Hall is brightly lit.
The current emperor, Gu Yihan, was taking a nap with his head propped up to relieve the fatigue caused by reviewing memorials.
His face is like a crown jade, and his bright yellow dragon robe highlights his gentlemanly nobility.
Her eyebrows are handsome, and under her sharp eyebrows are a pair of eyes that look decisive when opened.
now--
He frowned slightly, as if he was dreaming about something.
In the dream, he followed a mysterious guidance and walked in a glowing mist.
He saw an old man with white eyebrows and a broad robe suddenly appear in front of him.
To Gu Yihan's right, the mist slowly dispersed, revealing a clear pool covered by lotus flowers!
As the white fog dissipated, he saw a small stream of light, like the water of the Milky Way, pouring into the pool from the sky.
The water drops are crystal clear, the petals are pure pink, and the lotus leaves are green and dripping.
Gu Yihan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Who are you? How dare you not kneel down when you see me?"
The old man stroked his white beard and smiled softly: "As expected of the Lord of the Nine Provinces, even his tone is so arrogant.
That's all, I'm here today to fulfill your wish and give you a daughter. However, you must remember the promise you made."
