After catching the pregnant woman in this yard, things became clear.
When Mrs. Zheng married into the palace, Prince He's palace had not had any children for many years.
In order to be able to conceive a child, Mrs. Zheng also endured a lot of hardships. She tried all the folk remedies she found from various places, no matter whether they worked or not.
Fortunately, Huangtian paid off his hard work and finally became pregnant with a child two years after getting married.
But just getting pregnant was obviously not enough. She had to ensure that the baby was a son.
So from the moment she found out she was pregnant, she planned to tell lies to Prince He.
First, she said that she had a dream, in which she dreamed of a fish leaping over the dragon gate. A golden carp jumped straight through the dragon gate and jumped into her arms, turning into a big fat boy with a smile.
Prince He just listened for fun and didn't take it seriously.
Unexpectedly, it didn't take long before it was found out that Zheng was pregnant.
Immediately afterwards, Ms. Zheng began to talk about her current pregnancy from time to time, which was exactly the same as when her mother was pregnant with her brother, and continued to reinforce the impression to Prince He that she must be pregnant with a boy.
When she was older, doctors were invited to diagnose her pulse and masters were asked to tell fortunes. Everyone said with certainty that she was definitely carrying a boy.
So from two months ago, Prince He was convinced and began to immerse himself in the joy of having a son.
Li Zixun had also heard a little about Zheng's actions.
At that time, he only thought that this was Zheng's coquettish act to seek attention and favor. He never expected that she would be so bold and still have a back-up plan.
In fact, what Li Zixun didn't know was that Zheng had consulted many doctors in private, and no matter how they checked her pulse, they all said that her baby was most likely to be a daughter of a daughter.
So in order to cover up the lie and worry that it would be difficult to conceive a second child after giving birth to this child, Zheng did such a ridiculous thing under the instigation of her brother and sister-in-law.
"Master!" Cheng An entered the room and interrupted Li Zixun's thoughts. He had already followed your instructions and secretly let one person go to report the news. "
"Well, keep Zheng's brother and sister-in-law temporarily in the dungeon. As for the pregnant women, send them home!" Li Zixun ordered.
"Yes!" Cheng An took the order and turned around.
Li Zixun's eyes flashed. He wanted to see what kind of reaction Zheng would have when he learned that all the pregnant women he had raised for several months had been kidnapped. It would be interesting!
Early the next morning, after Mrs. Zheng got up, she ate the freshly stewed bird's nest supplement as usual.
The maid Chunzhu suddenly came in from outside with a pale face and a look of hesitation.
Zheng waited for a long time without seeing her speak, so she raised her hand and waved away the others and asked, "What's wrong?"
Chunzhu knelt down with a plop and said: "Master, something bad has happened. The house in Sanqiao Lane was robbed last night. The servants were all knocked unconscious. My uncle, his wife and the pregnant woman were all robbed. Xiao Shanzi He woke up first and found that no one was there, so he came over to report the news."
"What?" Mrs. Zheng was shocked when she heard this. The stew pot in her hand fell to the ground and broke into several pieces. "What did you say?"
She wanted to get up in a hurry, stepped on the broken pieces of the stew pot, tilted her body and hit the edge of the couch, immediately holding her stomach and screaming.
"Ouch, my stomach hurts!"
Chunzhu was so frightened that she quickly stepped forward to support Mrs. Zheng, and shouted outside: "Here comes someone, go and call the doctor, call Wen Po!"
Zheng was still more than half a month away from her due date, and her fetal condition had always been stable. No one expected that she would have an attack so far in advance, and the servants in the house were immediately in chaos.
Prince He quickly learned the news and hurried over.
When he arrived at the place, he was surprised to find that Li Zixun had arrived earlier than him.
Li Zixun came to see the Zheng family lively, but he could not say this to Prince He. He only said: "I am only annoyed by the Zheng family, not the child in her belly. After all, he is my father's flesh and blood, and also my relative."
Prince He was so moved by his son's words that his eyes were red. He raised his hand and patted Li Zixun's shoulder hard and said, "Okay, good boy!"
Because Mrs. Zheng was pregnant, the palace officials and Wen Po had already invited people to live in the palace, but they lived a little far away, but they all hurried over now.
Po Wen went into the room and took a look at Mrs. Zheng's condition. She was sure that she was about to have an attack. She hurriedly separated the people with a curtain, leaving only one hand outside, and let the doctor go in and diagnose Mrs. Zheng's pulse.
"The concubine's pulse is unstable. It doesn't look like a natural attack, but it seems to be caused by an accidental movement of the fetus." The doctor said while wiping the sweat. "It's been half a year since the common people diagnosed the concubine's pulse. The concubine has been pregnant since she became pregnant." I have always paid great attention to the maintenance of my child, only doing things that are good for the child and not doing anything that is harmful to the child, so the fetal condition has always been stable. Logically speaking, I should not have given birth early. I wonder if there was any accident?"
When King Qin heard this, he became anxious and asked angrily: "What's going on?"
Chunzhu knelt aside and cried: "Prince Qi, when the master got up early to drink bird's nest, he accidentally slipped and dropped the stew pot. Then when he got up, he stepped on a piece of debris. He was unsteady and knocked down his stomach. That's why... "
"You idiots, you are always told to be careful, why would something like this happen to you! If my son has any shortcomings, let's see how I will deal with you!"
Zheng was originally her first child, and she did not give birth naturally. Therefore, although her stomach started to have cramps, her cervix did not open. The pain made her sweat profusely and she wanted to roll and hit the wall.
Outside, I could only hear Mrs. Zheng screaming and crying inside, and I didn't know what was going on inside.
Pots of blood and water were brought out, and pots of hot water were brought in.
With the prince beside him, he was so anxious that it was the first time in his entire life that he had to stand outside the delivery room and endure this kind of suffering.
Li Zixun sat steadily next to him, drinking tea and admiring his biological father walking around like an ant on a hot pot. He thought to himself, if a daughter is born soon, the expression on his face will definitely be wonderful!
Mrs. Zheng started to have seizures in the morning, and the pain lasted until evening. Finally, Po Wen's voice of surprise came from the delivery room: "I can see the baby's head! Concubine, please push hard, the baby is about to come out!"
Prince He, who was already tired from walking, heard this and immediately jumped up from his chair, rushed to the door of the delivery room and said: "Wenqin, if you keep insisting, your son will be born! When you give birth to your son, I will seal it." You become the princess!”
Li Zixun was still waiting leisurely to watch the show, but when he heard this, his face immediately turned dark.
Mrs. Zheng in the delivery room seemed to suddenly have motivation, what if it was really a son!
As the last ray of light was about to completely disappear into the horizon, the baby's faint cry finally sounded in the delivery room.
He and the prince were overjoyed and waited at the door of the delivery room without blinking.
Soon, Mrs. Wen came out of the delivery room holding the baby wrapped in a hundred-child quilt, and said to Prince He with a smile on her face: "Congratulations to the prince, congratulations to the prince, I am so happy to have a daughter, mother and daughter are safe!"
"What did you say? Not my son?"
