Sweet Beauty - Chapter 98
The female doctor had already instructed her servants and maids to prepare everything for the past two days. As soon as she heard the call, she rushed over and ordered someone to fetch the silver scissors, gauze, towel and other items that were prepared, and then ordered someone to prepare them. Hot water, ginseng soup, cakes, etc.
When everything was ready, Fang calmly supported Ashu and said, “Queen, relax, just listen to the servant’s words and do as you please, and you will be able to give birth to a child safely.”
A Shu listened carefully to the female doctor’s instructions. Although she had memorized it by heart, she still did not dare to neglect.
Liu Xiu also held his breath and asked carefully, “When will this be born?”
The female doctor shook her head and said, “Everyone has their own differences. Ordinary people are reborn, and it takes about seven or eight hours to successfully give birth to a child.”
Although Liu Xiu had never seen a woman give birth, he knew that it was like a gate of hell, and he had to be extra careful to get through it. When I heard that it was seven or eight hours, I couldn’t help but startled and said, “It’s been so long? What if the pain is unbearable?”
The female doctor said solemnly: “The pain is inevitable, and it’s just a little pain right now, and it’s so painful that I’m afraid I can’t eat it. Your Majesty must keep your composure, and don’t make the queen anxious.”
At this time, Liu Zhao and Deng Wan, who heard the news, have also arrived. Liu Zhao nodded hurriedly, grabbed Liu Yu’s sleeve, and warned solemnly: “Brother, you must not disturb A-sister’s mind.”
The people next to Liu Yu didn’t care either, he just took the words of the female doctor one by one in his heart, and then personally helped Ah Shu to sit down beside the tidy bed in the inner room.
A Shu held one hand in his palm and squeezed tightly. The pain was just like what the female doctor said. First, the pain was short and the interval was longer. Gradually, the pain became longer and longer, and the interval became shorter and shorter.
Liu Xiu watched from the side and felt distressed, but he couldn’t bear the pain for her, so he could only wipe the sweat from her forehead from time to time, and then held the ginseng soup and handed it to her lips, making her drink a little bit to save her energy.
At first, she could walk around and listen to him holding the booklet to read, but after an hour or two, her face turned pale with pain, and she could no longer hear anything.
After a long time, when she was sweating all over, the female doctor invited Liu Yu, Liu Zhao and others out, leaving only a few maids to guard them.
Ah Shu leaned on the bed in pain, biting the sackcloth stuffed by the female doctor in her mouth. While holding on, she listened to the female doctor’s words and learned to breathe smoothly.
After nearly two hours of such pain and unbearable pain, the female doctor reached out with her hand and said, “The cervix is fully opened, and the baby is about to come out! The queen, listen to the servant’s words and exert force!”
Ah Shu was already staring at her eyes, and she relied on the ginseng soup and snacks just now to hang her spirits. Hearing this, she nodded weakly, but she couldn’t utter a single word.
Liu Xiu and others stood outside, not willing to go to the side room to rest in the cold wind, but leaned under the corridor, listening to the movement in the room from time to time.
In the house, he could only listen to the voices of the female doctor and the maids, but he did not listen to A Shu’s movements. Liu Xiu had to send people to check the situation from time to time, and he was afraid of disturbing the people in the house, so he only let him watch from the outside.
This went back and forth many times, until the sky was getting brighter, and finally I heard the cry of a child in the house. It was loud and clear, making everyone’s eyes light up.
After a while, Fang You’s maid rushed out and reported in a trembling voice: “Your Majesty, I was born… It’s a little, little prince!”
Liu Yu was in a panic while waiting outside, and his mind was in a trance. Hearing this, the prenatal education had to enter. Who knew that he would take a step, but it was a stumble. Only then did he realize that his legs and feet had long since been standing for a long time. Chill and numb.
The attendant next to him hurriedly came up to help, and the maid said: “Your Majesty, rest first, the maid will go and carry the boy.”
Liu Yu hurriedly waved his hand to stop him: “It’s freezing outside, don’t bring him here, so as not to catch a cold.”
After all, he endured the numbness of his legs and feet and walked in quickly: “How is Ashu? Is everything okay?”
The maid smiled and said: “Okay, with Your Majesty here, everything is fine with the queen, but she is a little tired and can’t eat enough, and she is falling asleep.”
Only then did Liu Xiu’s dangling heart fall. Before entering the inner room, he suddenly slowed down and stepped in softly.
In the house, the maids had already replaced all the messy bedding, and most of the red candles had been lit on the copper sparrow lampstands in the four corners, and the closed window lattices were slightly pushed open to let in the air.
On the inner bed, Ah Shu was lying on her back weakly, next to a small swaddle, and could faintly see a red-skinned child sleeping soundly with his eyes narrowed.
Liu Xiu approached carefully, looking at Ah Shu’s porcelain-white skin, which had already lost its blood, but was still as bright as a crescent moon.
Looking at the way she was struggling to open her eyes, he felt his heart melted.
His eyes were slightly red, he bent over and leaned over, brushed away the broken hair on her forehead, kissed her smooth skin, and said hoarsely, “Ashu, thank you.”
Ah Shu’s eyes were so hazy that she couldn’t open her eyes. Hearing this, she pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled weakly: “Husband, look at the child.”
Liu Yu’s eyes turned to the child who was quietly closing his eyes and was sleeping soundly, and he was heartbroken again. Rao is a small child, his skin is red, full of folds, his facial features are lumpy, and he can’t tell what he looks like. The more he looks at it, the more cute he is.
The soft and warm touch gradually spread from his fingertips to his heart.
The child seemed to feel something, closed his eyes and pouted his lips, which made him love him endlessly.
Resisting the wetness of his eyes, he sat down beside her, put a kiss on the child’s forehead, and said in a trembling voice, “This is my son.”
He also hugged Po Nu and Adai in the swaddling clothes. He couldn’t help recalling the actions at that time, and held the swaddling clothes in his arms a little strangely: “My son’s nickname is ‘Blue Sparrow’, okay?”
The green sparrow is the mulberry, and Yu Xiangrui is healthy and blessed.
“Paying Sanghu, there is Ying Qiyu, the gentleman is Lexu, and Shoutianzhihu. This name is very good.” Ashu looked at him holding the child, and there were shallow dimples on his cheeks.
Knowing that she was really tired, Liu Yu didn’t bother him too much, so he only ordered people to turn off the lights, put the quilt around her, put Qingque back next to her, and just quietly watched the mother and son sleep peacefully.
In a few months, he will come to stand, and today, he finally has his own children.
He pressed the news of Chen Liuwang’s death that had not been announced yesterday, back to the bottom of his heart.
Just wait.
…
It is very difficult for women in the capital to give birth. Fortunately, Ah Shu is still young and her body is always healthy, so she can recover faster.
For many days, Ashu was well cultivated, and Qingque was also by her side. Although there were nursing mothers and maids to help, she was mostly breastfeeding herself.
When you are pregnant, you should pay extra attention. As soon as the green bird is born, it shows signs of health. When breastfeeding every day, it **** thirst and waving its hands and feet. When lying on the mother’s shoulders and patting the milk burp, he would kick his legs from time to time, and his movements were strong and powerful, which made the nurse and the servants praise.
Liu Yu had already moved all political affairs to the Nangong Palace. At this time, this palace was like the Xin Palace in Xindu and the Weiyang Palace in Chang’an in the past, with ministers coming and going every day.
Recently, the political situation has been tentatively decided, and he has already started to seal the heroes and reset the Yulin army. In a few days, Guo Qu, Liu Ji, Wang Shu, etc., were all given the title of lords, just like Chen Yi, and they were also rewarded for meritorious deeds, either getting food or being promoted to official positions. For example, Fan Xiao, he was appointed as a general in Yulin, guarding the palace.
In addition to these heroes who have been following for a long time, Liu Yu also named Zhao You as a township marquis. As soon as this move was made, it was announced to the world that soon Ashu would be named queen.
However, when the honorary titles of the heroes were settled, and when the queen was about to be canonized, news came again from the northern border.
At this moment, the old Shanyu of the Huns Jing passed away, and the Zuo Xian Wang Wuliuzhu was the new one.
Unable to do so, the matter of conferring the queen had to be put on hold, and the matter of the Huns had to be turned to.
Many courtiers said that after nearly ten years of wars and disasters in the Great Han River, the people are already struggling to survive and are waiting to be revived. At this moment, in the face of the covetousness of the Huns, they should retreat to advance, cultivate their health, and imitate the early Han Dynasty. policy in exchange for peace.
However, there are also many people who will go out to fight, imitating the actions of Emperor Wu, and they will use their troops and horses to pacify the land of the Xiongnu, so that they will never dare to attack me again.
The two parties debated at the court for several days, and Liu Yu sat silently until after the spring ploughing day, when Fang suddenly appeared in front of the crowd and said unintentionally: “My son Qingque has been born for the full moon, and I think that when I was still in Xiayang, my wife once Being attacked by the Xiongnu assassins, if not for the profound blessings, I would only be in danger.”
All the ministers were stunned, and gradually they came to understand that the new emperor was always elegant, but he was a figure like a **** of war who could win every battle. , taking Geng Yun down, he couldn’t hide the assassination, and it became a thorn in his heart that could not be removed.
Guo Qu understood in his heart, and after careful consideration, he advised: “During the battle of Youzhou, Your Majesty had a grudge with the Youri Chasing King, and now the new Dan Yu Wuliuzhu is a compatriot of his mother, and his feelings are very strong, I am afraid it will not be easy. Stop it. Instead of being so weak as a kiss, it’s better to drive them back to Mobei while the morale of the soldiers is in full swing.”
Everyone else smelled the wind, and they all agreed.
Liu Yu showed a gentle smile, but with the blade of Sen Han in his eyes, he glanced down at everyone, and said loudly: “According to everyone’s words, I need to go to this time to teach the Xiongnu children, and from now on they will not dare to offend me. !”
He endured this hatred for several months, and took advantage of this opportunity to be ashamed.
…
On that day, after Liu Yu finished his political affairs, he returned to Changqiu Palace to see Ah Shu and Qingque.
Recently, the three of them have been staying together every day, and they are as close as a couple and their children in ordinary families.
When Liu Xiu entered, he saw Ah Shu’s cheeks were growing, breastfeeding with her head bowed in her arms, her gauze half faded, revealing a piece of lustrous and bright skin.
The nurse and the maid were waiting on both sides, and when they saw him waving, they backed away.
Ah Shu has been breastfeeding herself for more than a month. Although she doesn’t shy away from him, she is embarrassed in the end. Seeing him entering, she quickly turned slightly to the side.
Liu Yu was stunned for a moment, and vaguely noticed that her already slender figure was becoming more plump and plump, and her skin was more hydrated and smoother than before.
When he was moved, he couldn’t help but feel a shock, silently walked behind her, took her into his arms, and quietly looked at the peaceful appearance of the mother and son.
Ashu blushed, and when Qingque had sucked enough, she was about to pull her clothes back, but he was holding her hands down and rubbing her skin: “Child, I have been working for many months, and today I will hand Qingque over to her. For the nurse, okay?”
Saying that, as if she was afraid that she would not refuse, she hurriedly said: “The female doctor said that it is all right.”
Ah Shu bit her lip and didn’t speak, she just brushed away his hand, pulled the front of her clothes, kissed Qingque lovingly, and ordered her wet nurse to carry him out.
After the nurse came out of the hall and closed the door, Liu Xiu was already standing behind her, grabbed her thin shoulders, leaned over and kissed her softly.
