Zhu'er has been watching over the Ninth Princess recently. When she realized that she was not in a good state, she quickly ran over to support the Ninth Princess.
"I might be giving birth!"
Princess Ninth's stomach hurt more and more, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
"Here comes someone, go and call Po Wen!"
Zhuer picked up Princess Ninth and ran to the inner room while shouting outside.
The female escort who was standing outside the study hurriedly ran out, and soon several stable ladies ran into the Ninth Princess' room carrying boxes on their backs.
Then Wei Wuya, who lived in another courtyard, also ran over.
However, there are differences between men and women, and Wei Wuya had to avoid suspicion unless absolutely necessary.
Not long after Wei Wuya arrived, he saw Guan Xiaorou walking over with the support of Bei Qianxun.
"Mrs. Xiaorou, why are you here?"
Wei Wuya hurriedly greeted him.
Guan Xiaorou and the Ninth Princess were pregnant at about the same time, and their due date is also within the next few days. Now it is a little inconvenient to walk.
"How is the situation in Wuyang?" Guan Xiaorou asked.
"I don't know either," Wei Wuya shook his head.
Guan Xiaorou nodded, not caring about being polite to Wei Wuya, and took Bei Qianxun directly into the back room.
They walked into the house, and Concubine Qing also came with several maids.
Then Xiaoyu, the village chief, Tie Shixin and others also received the news and rushed there one after another.
However, they did not dare to get too close and waited far away in the outer courtyard. However, they did not enter the house, but stood at the door of the courtyard.
The suppressed cries of pain from the Ninth Princess could be heard faintly in the room, as well as the encouraging voices from Concubine Qing and Guan Xiaorou.
For women in this era, whether they are princesses or ordinary people, giving birth to a child is a life-or-death experience.
Fortunately, Guan Xiaorou attaches great importance to the matter of having new children, so she found several well-known stable women in Guangyuan. With the help of these stable women, she was busy until late at night. Wei Wuya, who was waiting at the door, heard a bright sound
baby crying.
Only then did Wei Wuya let out a long sigh of relief.
While a maid came out to bring hot water, Wei Wuya asked: "A boy or a girl?"
The child born to the Ninth Princess is Jin Feng’s first child, and his mother is the empress of the dynasty, so this child’s status is very special.
If it is a boy, it means that Jin Feng officially has an heir.
So when they heard Wei Wuya's question, Xiaoyu and Tie Shixin who were standing aside also pricked up their ears.
"In response to Mr. Wei, it's a girl!" the maid whispered.
Hearing this answer, Wei Wuya was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but sigh.
The village chief and others outside were also silent.
In the feudal era, boys were favored over girls. Although the Ninth Princess was the empress, strictly speaking, she was not the main wife. If she gave birth to a boy, everyone would be happy. As Jin Feng's first child, she could barely inherit the throne.
right.
But the ninth princess gave birth to a girl...
If Guan Xiaorou gives birth to a boy next, then Guan Xiaorou's child will be Jin Feng's eldest son. According to the rules passed down by Dakang for thousands of years, he is the legitimate successor.
If the Ninth Princess does not agree by then, I am afraid that Xin Dakang's future will fall into chaos in the struggle for the throne.
Could it be that after the Nine Princesses, there will be another empress next?
In this case, it is very likely that a routine will be formed and more empresses will appear in the future.
Tie Shixin and others couldn't help but worry about the future of Xin Dakang.
In the room, Princess Ninth learned that she had given birth to a girl. She did not show any disappointment, but waved to Pearl.
Zhu'er quickly brought the child to the Ninth Princess: "Your Majesty, look, the eyebrows and eyes look like yours, and the nose looks like Mr.'s!"
"You haven't even opened your eyes, what can you see?"
The Ninth Princess glanced at Zhuer angrily, and then took the child into her arms.
Concubine Qing, who was standing aside, looked at the Ninth Princess and the child, and then at Guan Xiaorou's big belly. She couldn't help but feel worried on her face.
But Concubine Qing had stayed in Sichuan for so long and had long recognized the influence of Jin Feng and Guan Xiaorou, so she didn't dare to say anything.
Guan Xiaorou is very conservative in her thinking and has always taken Jin Feng's inheritance very seriously.
Ninth Princess had suffered a miscarriage before, and Guan Xiaorou was always worried that she would not be able to keep the child, so she rushed over as soon as she learned that Ninth Princess was going to give birth.
Now that the Ninth Princess had given birth, she was relieved. Sensing that Concubine Qing seemed to have something to say to the Ninth Princess, Guan Xiaorou told the Ninth Princess a few words, nodded to Concubine Qing, and left with Bei Qianxun.
.
As soon as Guan Xiaorou left, Concubine Qing sat on the bedside of the Ninth Princess and said angrily: "Wuyang, look, look, Guan Xiaorou is here to demonstrate with you, and she even brought Bei Qianxun with her!"
"Mother, sister Xiaorou is not that kind of person!" Ninth Princess replied with a wry smile.
Concubine Qing was used to fighting in the palace back then, but now when she saw Guan Xiaorou and Bei Qianxun, she felt naturally hostile.
The Ninth Princess tried to persuade her at first, but then gave up. She also used the excuse that she was too busy with government affairs and moved from the courtyard where Concubine Qing lived to the newly built courtyard of the village chief.
Concubine Qing also noticed that the Ninth Princess disliked her verbosity, so she restrained herself a little. She usually traveled around the mountains and played in the water, and her life was quite comfortable.
But today I met Guan Xiaorou here again. It was still such a sensitive node, and my old habits came back again.
"Wuyang, you are still too naive and don't know how dangerous people's hearts are!" Concubine Qing continued: "You didn't see it. I just found out that you gave birth to a girl. Guan Xiaorou was so happy!"
I really don’t know what those old foxes in the court would think if they heard Concubine Qing say that the Ninth Princess was innocent.
"Mother concubine, sister Xiaorou is different from the concubines in my father's palace. She is really simple and she really cares about me." Ninth Princess said.
"Do you know that a biting dog never barks?" Concubine Qing said, "Guan Xiaorou looks honest. Now that she has given birth to a son, do you think she is still honest?
What's more, the old people in the village are all on Guan Xiaorou's side. Even if Guan Xiaorou doesn't want to fight with you, those old people in Guanjiawan will push her children to fight with you!"
In fact, this situation has been common in all dynasties.
Some princes do not want to fight for power, but the forces behind them will push them to fight for it.
Guan Jiawan is considered to be the first group of people to follow Jin Feng. The bodyguard bureau, the chamber of commerce, the Zhongming Group... all the forces under Jin Feng's command include the shadow of Guan's family.
Nowadays, as Jin Feng's power continues to expand, the Guan family's position is getting higher and higher.
The concept of clan in this era is inherently strong. If Guan Xiaorou has a child in the future, the Guan family will definitely support Guan Xiaorou’s child. Bayi Chinese Website
In fact, Princess Ninth had thought about these issues before, but because she was still young, she didn't feel it was too urgent.
Now that her child has been born, she really should consider this issue.
But Princess Ninth didn't want to discuss it with Concubine Qing. She rubbed her eyebrows and said, "Concubine, it's getting late. You should go back and rest early. I'm a little tired too."
Concubine Qing sighed and stood up to leave.
But as soon as he reached the door, he saw Kita Chihiro coming in.
"Where's Po Wen, come here quickly, the eldest lady is about to give birth too!"
