On the day of the big wedding of those three elder brothers, it was just after the second watch, and they went to welcome the brides in one after another before midnight.

Shu Yan also learned through her own experience that there is still a big difference between the marriage customs of the Manchus and those of the Han people.

One is to welcome the bride home before the wedding day, otherwise the wedding ceremony cannot be performed on the same day after the wedding day.There's no fussing or beating, the ceremonial guards are just set up but not done.

The second is that Manchu weddings do not have a worship hall. The bride is not even allowed to touch the ground when she welcomes home, and all the etiquette is presided over by the married woman in the wedding room.

Shu Yan only stood at the window and looked at the palace road in the distance, all the palaces and courtyards were brightly lit.Although separated by a distance, one can vaguely feel the oppressive din.

"It's getting late, so why don't you arrange it, master." Hanyu said behind him, and then looked into the distance, "I'm afraid the crown prince won't be back until very late."

Shu Yan didn't expect the prince to come back today, but just sniffed the scent in the air, "Eat something, I'm hungry."

As soon as Hanyu thought about it, she immediately reported several delicious foods, and Shu Yan ordered two.

When she was about to lie down after eating, Shu Yan suddenly felt her lower abdomen sinking, she hurriedly grabbed Hanyu's hand, "Go and call grandma, my stomach hurts a little." I mentioned a lot.

Hanyu panicked a little, and shouted outside, "Hurry up and call Mother Hai, the princess is about to give birth."

After a while, Nanny Hai rushed in with a few grandmas.

After checking it out, I came to the conclusion, "The princess is indeed about to give birth, but this is just the beginning. I guess it will take several hours before the baby falls to the ground. The princess should adjust her breathing more when the labor pain comes again." , don't try your best, now is not the time." But what should be prepared is for people to start preparing.

Hanyu knelt on the bedside and wiped Shu Yan's sweat, and said worriedly: "Young servant, let the prince come back." It seems that in this palace, only the prince has the backbone.

Shu Yan endured the pain for a while, and then said: "Don't call, grandma said just now that it's still early, and calling back won't be of much help. It's enough to have so many of you here." At the end, she twisted again frown.

At this time, there was a sound of cramped footsteps outside the door, and as the voices of the palace people calling for the master came one after another, the crown prince arrived outside the door.

"What's the matter?" Hearing the voice, it seemed like he was running all the way back.

Nanny Hai was talking back, when she suddenly said, "Second Master, you can't go in."

The prince just said, "My lord, there are not so many taboos here." Throwing aside the curtain, he rushed in, "You all stop saluting, what should you do?" around.

"Why did you come back?" Shu Yan is now slowly getting used to the pain at the beginning, and it doesn't hurt much now, and she shook the prince's hand, "I'm fine, there are so many people waiting for you , Grandpa, let’s go out.”

The crown prince knew that women were most important during childbirth, so they would not go out easily, so he tightened his hands and coaxed: "Yan'er is not afraid, the master is here."

If it wasn't for the stomach ache again at this moment, Shu Yan would almost not have laughed, the prince looked more nervous than her.

After this period of time passed, Shu Yan asked her grandma who was serving there, "How long will it take?" It's one thing for the pain to escalate, and she almost couldn't help but want to exert herself.

Grandma said, "The princess is still patient, the cervix is ​​not fully dilated, so it's useless for you to try hard now."

Sister Hai said next to her, "Why don't you take advantage of the pain and eat something, childbirth is a laborious task."

While wiping Shu Yan's sweat, the prince asked, "What do you want to eat, Lord, let me make it."

Shu Yan shook her head, "I've eaten a lot just now..." Before she could finish speaking, labor pains came without warning, she couldn't help but cry out, tears almost didn't come down.

The prince was also anxious, obviously he had been a father so many times in his previous life, and he was still a little unsteady when he encountered this situation again, so he turned his head and asked, "How long will it take?"

The grandmas were stunned and terrified.So when a woman gives birth, a man shouldn't come here to disturb her, how long will she have to ask them?

Haimao hurriedly said: "Our princess is the first child, it's normal to suffer a little slower, second master, don't be too impatient, why don't you go outside and wait, there are so many people serving here, the princess will be fine of."

Shu Yan thinks that it is necessary for men to know the pain of women's childbirth. Otherwise, all these male chauvinists might think that it is so easy for women to have children.So there is no intention to let go of the hand that is holding the prince.

However, there are surprises in everything.For example, if the emperor returns to the palace suddenly, and the prince is required to see him immediately, this probably belongs to force majeure.

Before the prince left, he even kissed Shu Yan, "Don't be afraid, I will come back as soon as I go."

Didn't Kangxi rush to call him over when he heard that the crown prince had been driven into the delivery room? It was impossible for him to go back immediately.Then they inquired in detail about the progress of the wedding of the three elder brothers, who were sent by all parties to pick up their relatives, whether the journey went well, and even pulled out the menu of the wedding banquet to have a look.Once we talked like this, it was dawn time.

But the letter from Yuqing Palace has not come yet, so Kangxi had to yawn and continue to say: "It's the time of autumn, and I plan to take the princes and nobles of the Qing Dynasty to Nanyuan. Wai, you brothers go together."

This matter, the prince has nothing to shirk.But seeing that the sky outside had turned white, he couldn't hold back his urgency, and looked outside frequently without saying a word.

Kangxi then said, "There are so many people around to serve, the prince is still waiting patiently." After passing on the meal, he asked the prince to accompany him.

The prince couldn't sit still anymore, and said sadly: "The emperor's mother went there when she gave birth to Yinfeng, and Khan Ama rushed back and didn't even see her for the last time. After so many years, every time I go to the emperor On the day of Erniang's death, you couldn't help feeling sad and regretful. Since your son got married to the Ulanala family, he has been following the example of Khan Ama and Huang Erniang as husband and wife, respecting each other like a guest. Until now, nothing else dare Said, but she didn't even blush to each other once, and now she is giving birth there alone, and although the son-in-law doesn't say that he can help, she can feel at ease staying there." Speaking of this , and also brought up the matter of Dafujin's birth by the way, just to let the emperor stop giving preferential treatment to his daughter-in-law.

Kangxi was stunned for a moment, saying that sons run away from birth to mothers to death, a piece of paper separated by yin and yang, how can he not understand this truth, but the prince is not an ordinary prince, and what Kangxi is worried about is that he treats a woman too much. Too serious, forgetting to be the prince's duty.

Now hearing him say such a reasoning, I suddenly feel that I am a bit too harsh, after all, it is the prince's first child, and he is still born.Let alone the prince, why doesn't he value it.Moreover, he has heard a lot about Ulanara's character, and there is indeed nothing wrong with it for people to pick on. Even the Queen Mother is full of praise for her.So he waved his hand, "Go ahead and watch your wife."

The prince knelt down and kowtowed, then ran all the way back to Yuqing Palace, Li Ji led a few eunuchs behind him and couldn't catch up, and lost his hat all over the place.

As soon as he entered the doorstep of Yuqing Palace, there was a sound of a baby crying inside.The prince's feet faltered, and he almost fell down on the steps, so he lifted up the hem of his robe, and rushed up three steps at a time.

Ignoring the overlapping congratulations, he rushed into the room.

Fortunately, everything inside has been tidied up. The child was washed and wrapped in swaddling clothes and was lying there next to his mother-in-law, with big black eyes open, head tilted and mouth sucking, as if instinctively looking for food.As for Shu Yan, she bent her arms and gently embraced the baby in swaddling clothes. The smile on her face was as gentle as a gust of spring breeze, which made people feel softer when they saw it.

The prince's hanging heart finally let go.

When Hanyu saw this situation, he was naturally happy, and hurriedly sent out all the waiters inside and outside.

The prince sat over and looked at the child, and said, "You torturer, let your mother-in-law suffer today, and if you dare to be unfilial in the future, Ama will be the first to spare you."

The child was still working hard to find food, but perhaps he was frightened by the sudden approach of a human face, and started crying again.

Shu Yan couldn't laugh or cry, she stretched out her hand to hug her, but let the prince carry her first, and heard him coaxing there: "Ama just said a few words to you, but you still feel wronged, don't you? Is Ma right?"

Shu Yan said with a smile: "Stop teasing me, how can he understand this? He's hungry." She stretched out her hand and was about to bring the child back.

But the prince said goodbye, "If you're hungry, let the nanny come and hug you, so stop coaxing."

Shu Yan tentatively said, "I've been getting milk in the first few days, and just now my grandma said that I have a lot of milk."

The crown prince glanced at Shu Yan again, noticing the wetness on her chest that was slowly fading away, and said: "It's okay, let the imperial doctor prescribe a prescription later, two medicines can wean the milk. "He bowed his head and coaxed the child in his arms again, but the more he looked at it now, the more he liked it, and the more reluctant to let go.

Shu Yan took a deep breath, "My concubine wants to feed my elder brother by herself, what do you think, master." I really can't imagine that one day even the right to breastfeed a child will be fought for.

The prince turned around again, "Do you know how hard it is to feed children?" He listed a big basket.When it was time to finish, I still didn't forget to say: "Master knows how close you want to be with the child, and I'm afraid that he will grow up and live with his mother, but we will raise it ourselves, so how can we be unfamiliar with it?" How can Shu Yan need to worry about these feelings? After giving birth to a son like Hongshi in his previous life, he secretly made up his mind that every child born in the future must be taught and raised by himself.

Shu Yan didn't know what to say at all.

Just at this time, the queen mother who was going to accept the bride in the Ningshou Palace rushed over in person.

"Don't move, just lie down there, Aijia just came to see my precious great-grandson." The queen mother said so, and she only glanced at the infant child, said something like him, Ama, and sat down. Went to the bed, "Yan'er is suffering." As if the heart that was carrying her was finally let go.

Shu Yan shook her head, "It's easy to be born." In front of the Empress Dowager, she didn't dare to say too much about the children, but asked curiously about the big wedding of the elder brothers yesterday.

The Empress Dowager just said: "It's not those red tapes that come and go, so let's not talk about it." It really disturbed Shu Yan's confinement, and the Empress Dowager really just sat down for a while and then went back.

As for the baby, it was directly fed by the nanny.

The Empress Dowager walked on the way back to the palace and said: "The Ai family doesn't like that eighth Fujin, don't let her come to pay her respects in the future."

Jiang Momo glanced at the Queen Mother, a little puzzled, "My servant looks at the Fujins who are very obedient and polite, but you don't like the eight Fujins." She almost didn't ask, it wasn't because of Wei Shi It's not pleasing to the eye, so even her daughter-in-law doesn't like it.

The Queen Mother sneered, "She's a self-confessed and clever person, and she dared to play tricks under the eyes of the Ai family." Seeing that Mother Jiang was puzzled, she said, "You didn't hear what she and her two sister-in-laws were talking about just now. .”

Mother Jiang thought for a while, "Say that our princess is very lucky to have a baby on such a good day." It was just a compliment.

The Empress Dowager said: "Don't look at her acting cute and well-behaved. By saying this, she is clearly complaining that the Crown Princess gave birth to a child and robbed her of the limelight of her wedding."

Jiang Nanny's eyes widened, "Impossible, whoever has a child can choose the time, it's something that can't be stopped when it's ripe."

"You don't believe it, this is what the Anjun Palace brought up. At that time, many old concubines and concubines ordered to congratulate her. When they heard that the Crown Princess gave birth, they naturally got together and said some good things. As for her, The face is full of smiles, but the bowl of raw noodles is beaten behind the scenes. Those who don't know think that she lost her hand because she was hungry and fainted. They only said that she is a delicate girl, and the eighth brother must be good. It hurts. But just now, the old concubine told me quietly that the lotus seeds and peanuts on her wedding bed were crushed a lot."

This is self-evident, the fruits sprinkled on the wedding bed are all carefully selected high-quality goods, no one dares to use the damaged ones to make up for the number, if nothing else, it is always a bad idea.Therefore, Madam Jiang also had a new view on the Eight Fortune, and if she came to Ningshou Palace to pay her respects in the future, she would follow the Queen Mother's wishes and not let her in again.
