Chapter 894 The Princess's Delivery

Chapter 894 The Princess's Labor

"Hahahaha, good, good, this is worth it, worth it, brings honor, brings honor!"

Third Master stood with his hands on his hips, laughing triumphantly.

In front of him,

the Daoist had already been placed in a coffin.

This coffin was A Ming's bed, and A Ming's most cherished Western-style coffin. He had used it for a long time, and A Ming would always bring it with him whenever he moved.

But,

isn't A Ming not here right now?

For the Prince's Residence, for everyone, for Fengxin City, sacrificing a bed, what does it matter?

Third Master believed in A Ming's ideological awareness,

who told him to show off his advancement in front of him all the time?

Of course, Third Master wasn't just doing this out of revenge, but because the Prince's Residence currently lacked a powerful Qi Refiner to guard it.

Blind Man hadn't recovered to that level yet, and he wasn't even home;

Black Armor Man could only be used with caution, and they wouldn't dare let him out and treat him like one of their own;

as for the one in the Gourd Temple, he was unreliable, sometimes effective, sometimes not.

What about the Star Recorders?

They were currently still temporarily slaves, and even if they wanted to promote and absorb them, it couldn't be done so quickly.

In addition, the Daoist had caused too much commotion earlier, clearly indicating that this was not an easy person to deal with, so he had to be properly arranged.

A Ming's coffin, because it had always been used by A Ming to sleep in, well, when he wasn't sleeping, he liked to lie in the coffin with Kahir and sing songs while drinking, so this coffin could be said to be filled with the kind of sinister aura that belonged to vampires;

This made it easy.

The Prince's Residence still had plenty of genuine and proven effective talisman paper. Scraping the national treasury a few times would always result in some gains. However, the "righteous" talisman paper might have negligible effect on a righteous Daoist, but that wasn't a problem.

Putting the Daoist in the coffin and sticking talisman paper on the outside of the coffin, the aura on the talisman paper clashed with the sinister aura inside the coffin, creating a seal that trapped the Daoist inside.

In addition, to ensure absolute safety, the Daoist was filled with silver needles from his head to his neck to his body.

Acupuncture can stimulate a person's potential, but if done in reverse, it can accelerate the closure of oneself.

Third Master was indeed an expert in torture instruments, and he could create conditions even if there were none. He directly arranged everything clearly for this Daoist.

Anyway, so far, the Prince's Residence had always liked to capture and detain people, but there had never been a dog-blood drama of someone breaking free from their restraints. In this regard, Third Master deserved the credit.

"Come on, bury him, just leave a breathing hole."

Fourth Mistress said that she would bury the invaders and wait for the master to return, so it must be true burial.

The brocade-clad guards immediately lifted the coffin, placed it in the deep pit dug earlier, and then began to fill it in.

As for the matter of "interrogation," there was no rush. The most important thing right now was the princess's labor. The master's first child. Other things, even imperial edicts, could be put aside until things were done.

After doing this, Xue San sent someone to pass a message to Fourth Mistress.

...

"Okay, I understand."

Fourth Mistress lay on the reclining chair, half-closing her eyes, and beckoned to Ke Shi in front of her.

"Madam."

Ke Shi stepped forward, waiting for instructions.

Fourth Mistress hesitated for a moment, then said again, "Ru Qing."

"Sister, I'm here."

Liu Ruqing, who was brewing tea, immediately got up and stood respectfully in front of her.

The women in the back house could show their skills and natural charm in front of the Prince, but in front of Fourth Mistress, they were really very well-behaved.

Even though the princess's belly was so big that she was about to give birth, she had to be careful in front of Fourth Mistress.

"Take some precious herbs and tonics from the warehouse, and then take a portion of snacks to the Gourd Temple outside the city."

"Yes, sister, I'll go now."

Ke Shi was a mammy in the inner house, but after all, she was not the Prince's woman. Although Liu Ruqing was a concubine, she was qualified enough to represent the Prince's Residence's face.

Fourth Mistress also instructed: "If they are willing to come to the Prince's Residence for a while, bring them here together. Liqing is about to give birth, and it's good to pray for blessings."

"Yes, sister, I understand."

Liu Ruqing personally went to the warehouse to pick things, and then, accompanied by Xiao Yibo, took a carriage to the Gourd Temple.

After she left,

Fourth Mistress stretched gently, ordered someone to check on the princess's current situation, and after learning that the princess was still sleeping soundly, she smiled and returned to the main house herself.

These days, women in the folk, even if their bellies are big, still have to work for the livelihood of their families. Logically speaking, Fourth Mistress's months were smaller than Xiong Liqing's, and with her physique, it was not a problem to work as usual;

However, although Fourth Mistress had no feelings for the men in the world, even for the master, she only didn't hate him, this didn't mean that Fourth Mistress was so indifferent to the child in her belly.

After all, it grew up in her belly, so there was always a different feeling.

Therefore, when the Prince was at home, he often persuaded Fourth Mistress to work less and pay more attention to going to bed to rest, but it was useless;

But now, for the sake of the child, Fourth Mistress would deliberately give herself enough sleep time.

It's just that this sleep was not stable after all.

In the second half of the night, Ke Shi hurried to the main house where Fourth Mistress was.

She was just about to knock on the door when the door had already been opened by Fourth Mistress.

"Madam, Second Mistress is about to give birth!"

...

The princess was sent to the prepared and "disinfected" delivery room. The three most experienced midwives in Fengxin City were already waiting there. Outside, the maids were preparing water, scalding cloths, and decocting ginseng soup according to their divisions of labor. Everything was in order.

Perhaps they had rehearsed too many times, when this moment really came, everyone didn't feel too nervous, but habitually did their jobs.

Xue San's figure slid down from the courtyard wall and landed right on the green python.

"Go back, don't go in, lest you scare the people inside."

The green python twisted its snake head and looked at Xue San. Seeing that Xue San's eyes were firm and there was no room for discussion, the green python had to shake its head, and three snake scales with a little golden luster fell from between its snake eyes.

"I know you mean well, but what's the use of stopping the bleeding now, the child hasn't come out yet!"

Third Master scolded the green python, but still picked up the three snake scales.

The green python immediately窜着 his body and left.

The "monsters" in the Prince's Residence were actually very afraid of this dwarf Third Master. After all, the treatment that Pixiu enjoyed, how could these monsters escape?

Third Master smacked his lips, walked into a room outside the delivery room that was specially separated for him. The maid inside had already boiled hot water, lit the fire, and it was also filled with the smell of alcohol.

Perfume was one of the well-known industries of the Prince's Residence, and the distillation technology had naturally matured long ago.

Third Master took out all his tools and began to disinfect them for the last time.

Just after finishing his work,

Third Master felt something was wrong.

He quickly put away his things and placed them there, then ran out of the room cursing, the sound of cursing gradually decreasing as he ran.

When he came to the rockery,

Third Master shouted towards the passage below:

"Don't worry, old man, don't worry, nothing will happen, nothing will happen, lie down in peace, old man, and bring the child to see you after he's born."

In the depths of the passage, a figure slowly turned around and returned to his coffin.

Xue San sighed. Back then, the master just kowtowed with the mentality of kowtowing, and asked for a bond of incense and blood food. Now, he was really like a grandfather, caring about his direct "grandchildren."

After all, Tiantian was a adopted grandson, this one had blood ties.

So, it was really useful to burn incense for ancestors and put offerings on the table during the Qingming Festival to ask ancestors to bless you.

If you think it's useless, it means that your ancestors haven't reached a high enough level...

After comforting Shatuo Queshi, Third Master hurriedly went back to work.

At this time,

the mad monk, who had left the unconscious little monk behind and followed Liu Ruqing to the Prince's Residence for a "visit," was sitting upright, sitting alone in the corner and gently tapping the wooden fish while chanting scriptures.

Fourth Mistress asked Liu Ruqing to see him because of the friendship when the "True Buddha" appeared before, and inviting him to the Prince's Residence to face this matter was even more of an indication that she regarded him as a family member.

In terms of being a person, Fourth Mistress never neglected.

From another perspective, all the external interpersonal exchanges of the Prince of Pingxi's Residence were basically led by Fourth Mistress. Many local officials and generals that the Prince himself had never heard of or had no impression of in his mind, all believed that they were people of the Prince's Residence!

However, the old monk's tapping of the wooden fish was not useless. It really had the effect of reducing restlessness. This was the only thing the old monk could do now.

"Ah!!!!!"

Inside, Xiong Liqing's screams began to be heard, and the delivery began.

Xue San stood outside his small room, looking at the delivery room opposite, maids going in and out delivering various things.

This busy scene made Third Master feel a little dreamy and unreal.

When the Sword Saint's wife gave birth before, Xue San was also sitting on the courtyard wall preparing, but his mentality was really different from now.

This was the master's child.

Demon Kings often have no taboos in their worldly moral cognition, so there's no need to talk about bottom lines, but they are not demons who symbolize evil from morning to night. They also have their own understanding and warmth of the world.

Everyone came to this world,

step by step,

from suspicion to belief to suspicion and then to continue believing,

playing and making trouble,

everyone lives in this world in their own favorite way;

Unconsciously,

the master was about to have a child.

A smile appeared on Third Master's lips. Looking over there, Fourth Mistress walked over accompanied by Ke Shi.

Looking at Fourth Mistress's bulging belly,

the smile on Third Master's face was even greater.

What was in Fourth Mistress's belly was the common "root" and "belonging" of all the Demon Kings in this world.

Perhaps hearing Xiong Liqing's screams in the delivery room, Fourth Mistress had a gloomy look between her brows. When she came in and saw Xue San standing there smiling like a fool, she immediately glared at him.

Xue San licked his lips and moved his gaze away.

Fourth Mistress walked straight into the delivery room.

In this world, there are three places with great rules;

one is the palace, one is the army, and the last one is the delivery room.

But obviously, when Fourth Mistress walked into the delivery room, none of the three highly respected midwives in Fengxin City dared to say anything more.

A maid pulled a chair over, Fourth Mistress sat down, and sat there behind a curtain.

The military doctors in the J Eastern Army were first brought out by Fourth Mistress. Her sitting here could have a good effect.

What was not unexpected was that,

an accident occurred during the delivery.

The three midwives were all experienced, and as time went on, the situation of dystocia still occurred.

A midwife walked up to Fourth Mistress to report,

"You continue."

"Yes, madam."

With the difficulty of delivery, the people inside and out were all panicked.

The sound of the mad monk knocking on the wooden fish outside became louder.

Xue San walked into the delivery room openly with his tool box.

Although he was a dwarf, he was also a man. In this situation, it was meaningless to worry about the division between men and women.

Perhaps, in other wealthy families, even if the mother died, such a thing that would damage their reputation would not be allowed to happen, but it was the opposite in the Prince's Residence.

Behind a curtain, Xue San began to arrange his instruments. He was responsible for the cesarean section, and Fourth Mistress would definitely do the suturing.

Even if the conditions were simpler, for the two of them, the difficulty of performing a delivery operation was not great.

But the problem was not that simple.

The midwife had just fed the princess a bowl of ginseng soup. Pregnant women drink ginseng soup during childbirth to boost their energy and grit their teeth to fight this battle on the edge of hell.

However, after the princess drank ginseng soup and other short-acting tonics, her spirit and strength were still constantly declining, and there was no sign of improvement at all.

"Madam, madam, you have to push, push, hold on, hold on!"

"Madam, give it your all, give it your all!"

The midwives believed that the princess was weak or that the princess was pampered, so at this time, she could not stimulate her ruthlessness.

But the truth was not so.

Fourth Mistress and Xue San stood behind the delivery room curtain. Fourth Mistress said:

"It's the child who doesn't want to come out."

Xue San bit his teeth, and the two scalpels in his hand collided twice, "How can this child be like this."

Fourth Mistress shook her head and said; "It's not the child's intention, just like people still breathe when they are asleep, they will kick off the quilt when they are hot, and they will pull the quilt when they are cold.

The child does not yet have his own consciousness, he is just instinctively trying to get more nutrients before leaving the mother's body.

It's also helpless,

Originally, this should have been my difficulty, but I will probably be fine, but it fell on Liqing's body."

According to the "reproductive isolation" theory that the Demon Kings originally envisioned, not only is conception difficult, but childbirth will be even more difficult.

But now, the problem of conception has been solved, and the problem of childbirth is not a big problem because the master is there to drag his feet and deduct points.

But偏偏, with the princess here, her child inexplicably appeared with a "regression" phenomenon, which means that this child has a higher purity of the Fire Phoenix bloodline.

If the princess was giving birth in the palace at this time, or in the Qu family's house, the people accompanying the birth would probably be crazy with joy after hearing the news.

The Fire Phoenix bloodline has always been a symbol of the identity of the Chu Xiong family, which can be traced back to the earlier era of the Three Marquis's opening of the border.

Whether for the royal family or for the great nobles, whether the bloodline of the direct descendants is excellent or not is an extremely important matter.

Correspondingly, there is no need to care about the safety of the pregnant woman, she has completed her mission.

It's just that in the Prince's Residence, the demand for so-called "spiritual children" is actually not great.

One is because the master himself is more traditional. To be precise, Zheng Fan himself never wanted to "hope his son become a dragon" or "hope his daughter become a phoenix." As long as it is his own child, he will be satisfied;

The second is because, with Tiantian in the Prince's Residence, plus the one in Fourth Mistress's belly, the spiritual child is already a bit... numb.

No matter how precious something is, once there is too much of it, it is no longer rare.

Therefore, the Fire Phoenix Spirit Child, which would have been celebrated by the whole family if he was born in other large families, is viewed with full of disgust in the Prince's Residence, especially after the "dystocia" situation occurred.

Xue San said with some concern: "The problem now doesn't seem to be whether to have a cesarean section or not. The child and the mother are bound together. This kind of bond, accompanied by this special bloodline, is no longer a connection that can be seen with the naked eye like an umbilical cord, but an entanglement of essence, energy, and spirit. It is easy to take the child out, but the moment the child leaves the mother's body, it is likely to directly drain the remaining Fire Phoenix bloodline in the princess's body and suck it into his own body."

In short, the problem is no longer simple physics, but has risen to magic.

Fourth Mistress was naturally very clear about this. She said directly: "The bottom line is that it is impossible to let the master come back and learn that he has a child, but the child's mother is gone.

In this way, in the future, we will all have to be tight-lipped about the child's mother's affairs, which will seriously affect the atmosphere of family life in the future."

It's a very ridiculous reason in the ears of outsiders;

After listening to it, Third Master nodded in agreement.

However,

Third Master still said cautiously: "But you also said that the child is innocent."

The child's intention is not to harm his mother. The child is not conscious now and is just sleeping. In essence, the instinct of the bloodline is at work.

Fourth Mistress said: "In this world, there are too many innocent people."

After finishing speaking,

Fourth Mistress lifted the curtain and walked in.

On the bed,

the princess's face was pale, sweating profusely, she was struggling hard, but she couldn't restrain the constant dissipation of her strength.

Seeing Fourth Mistress walking in,

the princess, who had compared Qu Peiluo and Zheng Fan together more than once when facing the choice of men, shouted to Fourth Mistress completely out of maternal instinct:

"Sister, save my child, save my child, please sister, please sister!"

The princess knew clearly the abilities of these gentlemen in the family, and even more clearly the ability of her sister.

No matter how much longing, no matter how much calculation, no matter how much city government, no matter how much, at this moment, it is meaningless;

She is a mother, she is very smart, she clearly knows the current situation, she has made a choice, she wants her child to be born smoothly.

The past cannot be concealed, and the future cannot be predicted;

But at least it can be determined that the love at this moment is sincere and without any flaws.

The princess said to protect the little one;

But Fourth Mistress didn't hesitate and shook her head directly,

Said:

"You have to survive."

The princess's eyes widened.

Fourth Mistress didn't even look at the princess, facing the princess's belly,

厉声 said:

"Beast, listen to me, your mother is ten times a hundred times more important than you. Since you don't want to come out, then you should die!"

The ruthless words were spoken.

The child is "sleeping," he cannot perceive the mother's danger, and the bloodline is acting on instinct, storing the most abundant things for himself before his birth in order to face the dangers that may be encountered after birth.

This is actually... an instinct of a divine beast, which is also the advantage of the bloodline, but at the same time, it is also the sin of the bloodline.

Therefore, why can humans continue to reproduce and grow, while so-called divine beasts, such as the Pixiu of Yan Kingdom, can only rely on the breeding of the Beast Control Supervisor to produce a few pure bloods.

But the instinctual will is to seek survival.

Everything that instinct does is to live better.

And when instinct realizes that it will die, the so-called "living better" becomes the second choice, the first choice is to live, even if it is not "better."

Instinct realized that Fourth Mistress, this woman with a terrifying aura, was not a threat, but the truth.

The purer and more essential it is, the more difficult it is to be deceived, not to mention that Fourth Mistress did not intend to bluff anything, what she said was the truth from her heart, and she had even raised the silver needle in her hand, intending to send the fetus in her belly directly away.

The next moment,

the three midwives immediately widened their eyes,

This was a scene that they had not seen or encountered in their three rich delivery experiences.

Obviously, the parturient woman was exhausted,

Obviously, the parturient woman did not work hard together,

Obviously, there was even no "clue" before,

But at this time,

the child,

just like this,

very suddenly, very unprepared, even a bit主动's ,

himself,

came out……
