But then, Qingqing's nose moved and sniffed hard.

No! What does this taste like?

"Empress, let's see." Qingqing had no thoughts of superiority and inferiority at this time. As long as there were no outsiders, Qingqing's status was actually higher than Li Lizhen.

Qingqing stepped forward and lifted Li Lizhen's skirt.

When I lifted up, I saw that it was already bright red inside.

It's already red, this is a sign that it's about to give birth!

"Hurry, call the imperial physician and Wen Po." Qingqing said, and then directed the other two palace maids to help Li Lizhen on the bed.

"What, am I about to give birth?" Li Lizhen asked soberly at this time.

"Yes, I'm going to give birth soon." Qingqing said.

The amniotic fluid is broken and red. If it is fast, it may not take a stick of incense and the child will come down.

At this time, Li Lizhen suddenly felt scared in her heart. What if she was born as a woman?

Li Lizhen has always been very convinced that the one in her belly is a boy, but now, when this child is about to come out, Li Lizhen hesitated in her heart. What if it comes out, what if it is a girl?

Li Lizhen's mind was completely tied to this problem and forgot another more important question.

Qingqing was busy at this time, directing other palace maids to do work. Some went to call the imperial physician and the Wenpo, some went to boil water, and some waited aside, obeying orders at any time.

These are the tribute girls from Goryeo who followed Li Lizhen, and they are the most trustworthy people.

There is a special nanny in the palace who is responsible for delivering babies, which is Wenpo. During this period, Wenpo has been waiting for it. After receiving the news, she came first.

Then the imperial physician was waiting outside. At this time, Li Lizhen's heart-wrenching shouts were constantly coming.

"With force, and if you work harder, your head has come out." There was another person's voice.

Li Lizhen felt so sad. Even if she was shot by an arrow for the emperor, she was not so sad. She felt that she had no strength left and sweat was flowing down. However, she still had to concentrate all the strength in her body and put it on the child in her belly, exert force, and then force!

Finally, at the moment when he was almost unconscious, Li Lizhen heard the cry of the baby.

"Wow, wow..." The baby cried very hard, as if he was announcing to the world that he had come out, and he would be the one who stirred up the storm of the Ming Dynasty and finally led the Ming Dynasty to completely shine.

"Congratulations, I'm a prince." Qingqing's words rang in Li Lizhen's ears.

Hearing Qingqing say this, Li Lizhen reluctantly opened her hands and hugged her, letting me see."

"Wait, Empress, wait until the baby is finished bathing and wrapping it up, and I will show you it." Qingqing said.

Every mother wants to see the child with her own eyes and see the child immediately.

However, the child at this time was covered in blood, which was really not good-looking.

Therefore, Qingqing rejected Li Lizhen's request and took the child to wash first.

The hot water beside it was already ready. Qingqing tried the water temperature and then put the child in.

Every newborn seems to be unwilling to take a bath and will cry very much. However, this child actually entered the water well, and his little hands will flutter in the water, and a smile appeared on his face.

"It's so beautiful!" The other palace maids couldn't help but say.

After washing it, it was put in the quilt. Before Qingqing could send the child to Li Lizhen's eyes, she heard the eunuch's voice coming from outside.

"The Empress is here." At this moment, the eunuch shouted outside.

The Empress is here? Hearing this voice, Li Lizhen looked at her son beside her, and was smiling at her. All the suffering she suffered was worth it.

Li Lizhen reached out and put the son who had made it like a rice dumpling and put it beside her. The little guy actually found his nipples without any instruction.

"See the Queen." Except for Li Lizhen, everyone kneeled down.

"So quickly, get up." Ma Xiuying said: "I came here when I received the news. Now that I have arrived here, I have been born. So quickly, is it a prince or a princess?"

"Qi Bien, Empress, is a prince." Qingqing said from the side.

Prince? Ma Xiuying was also happy when he heard this.

No family thinks they have few sons

The emperor, who is the common ruler of the world, was even more afraid that his sons would be too few to defend his country. However, he did not know that the people who threatened his country were the more or less sons who would fight to the death in order to fight for the throne. The battle for imperial power has always been very tragic.

"Empress..." Li Lizhen said, struggling to get up and salute Ma Xiuying.

"Concubine, don't move." Ma Xiuying said, looking at the concubine holding the little kid who was breastfeeding, and said, "Does this child look like you or like the emperor?"

When Li Lizhen asked this question, her heart trembled, she looked down at the child, with beautiful eyes and beautiful eyes, but she looked completely different from Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance.

"It seems to be more like you." Ma Xiuying said, and she could see it at a glance.

"See the Empress." At this moment, a voice came from outside.

Ma Xiuying turned around and found out that it was Concubine Sun.

Concubine Sun respectfully saluted the queen. After the queen spoke, she got up and walked towards Li Lizhen's bedside: "I learned that my sister had given birth, I will come over and take a look. Hey, it's still the prince."

Concubine Sun's voice was full of artificiality, and Li Lizhen said: "Thank Concubine Sun to come. It's okay, now the prince has been born."

"Just give birth, you and the prince are safe. I feel at ease now. You have to rest more. I will order someone to make some bird's nest soup later to make up for you." Queen Ma said.

It’s enough to be born. At this time, Li Lizhen needs rest and cannot disturb her much. Ma Xiuying also knows these things.

Therefore, seeing this, Ma Xiuying returned to the palace.

Concubine Sun followed him out. Before leaving, she looked at the carpet on the side.

The winter in the south is a bit cold.

Seeing these people walking out, Qingqing's face showed solemnity. After a moment of contemplation, she followed her out.

Although it is afternoon and it is still very bright, Qingqing is very familiar with the surroundings. The things she carries with her will integrate her with the surrounding environment at any time. So, if you keep up, she can guarantee that she will never be discovered.

Concubine Sun did not go back to her nest, but followed the queen to enter Kunning Palace.

Concubine Sun was the adopted daughter of Ma Shixiong, a general under Zhu Yuanzhang. She entered the palace later than Concubine Li Shu. She was very close to the queen and was considered half a fellow villager.

Moreover, after Concubine Li Shu died, Concubine Sun's status was faintly below the queen. Sometimes, she would even accuse other concubines of her reputation and help the queen manage the harem.

Seeing Concubine Sun entering Kunning Palace, Qingqing followed behind, quietly pressing against the wall, and flipping in like a gecko.

"Empress, the concubine's sister gave birth to a prince, which is really a gratifying event." Concubine Sun said.

After saying that, she looked up at the Queen, as if she wanted to see what the Queen was thinking.

"Yeah." Queen Ma had no expression, just said no.

Seeing Empress Ma like this, Concubine Sun still wanted to express her doubts. She felt that this was something she had to say.

"Empress, I remember, sister of concubine, probably met the emperor at the end of April and early May last year, right?" asked Concubine Sun.

Last year, the emperor ran to Dadu and had not been in Jiangnan for several months. Everyone in the palace remembered them very clearly.

When they came back, they brought a concubine back, and the concubine was pregnant, which made everyone dissatisfied with the unpregnant concubines in the palace. Although they didn't say it, they were all waiting for Concubine Li Shu to take the lead.

Concubine Li did take the lead, but in the end, Concubine Li was deposed and eventually committed suicide. They were glad that when Concubine Li finally died, they were also accumulating dissatisfaction with the concubine.

The concubine was so favored by the emperor and favored by the empress. The other concubines could hardly see the emperor and had no complaints in their hearts. That was impossible.

Now, Concubine Sun said this with various purposes, which naturally means something.

She didn't dare to say it outside, after all, it was a big deal. Only when she arrived in this palace and there were no palace maids and eunuchs around, did Concubine Sun say it.

"Well, what's wrong?" Queen Ma asked.

"It's not enough to have a child from the end of April last year to now. It's less than nine months old. It's time to give birth to a child. Now, the concubine is less than nine months old. Will it be...?"

Before he finished speaking, Empress Ma interrupted Concubine Sun: "This matter must be discussed in the future, so you can go back."

Originally, Concubine Sun felt that her judgment was very correct. The Empress attached great importance to such things. Who knew that after she said it, the Empress responded like this.
