en they charged into the middle section of the canyon, they received an order to secretly slip back to the canyon entrance and ambush there, capturing the escaped bandits. They were also observing the..."Ripples, don't be afraid, this palace is here with you!"

The Crown Prince immediately spoke up to soothe her, saying that the most important thing now was for the child to be born.

"Your Highness, please bless our children."

Ripples took the prince's hand and instructed him.

"Ripples, don't worry, our child will definitely be born safe and sound."

As if the prince's words had taken effect, Lian Ri pretended to be calm and collected. Then, with the support of Lan Zhi and Sun Mama, she entered the delivery room that had already been prepared.

After entering the delivery room, Lianyi said to Lan Zhi:

"Take that cushion away."

"Crown Princess"

"Don't you smell that strong scent of red flowers Is this to prevent me from having postpartum hemorrhage"

Ripple frowned.

Lan Zhi's heart skipped a beat. She helped Sun Mama steady the Crown Princess, then almost ran forward, rolling up all the bedding on the bed and throwing it out. Turning around, she rushed to Lian Yi's bedroom and brought over the new bedding she had prepared for her mistress a few days ago. After making the bed again, she finally helped Lian Yi lie down.

Meanwhile, the three midwives waiting nearby exchanged glances, their hearts pounding. This Crown Princess was not one to be easily fooled.

One midwife's eyes flashed, and the right hand she had placed beside her trousers instinctively clenched into a fist.

At this time, Lian-yi lay on the delivery bed. Lan-zhi had carefully removed her undergarments and covered her legs with a cotton blanket. The midwife, who had been brimming with anticipation moments before, took the first step forward and said:

"Let me first have a look at how the Empress Consort's mouth is opened."

Lanshi and Sun Mama saw that Lian Yi's face was still passable, so they stepped back but still kept a watchful eye on the midwife.

The midwife took two steps forward, seeing that the amniotic sac had already broken. She extended her right hand and was about to feel the cervix.

The ripples suddenly brought her legs together, kicking the midwife out with one foot. Everyone was startled by this sudden change, and Grandma Sun's heart pounded wildly as she rushed forward, pressing the pale midwife to the ground.

"Grandmother Sun, please take a good look at the gap between her right fingernails."

Ripples said calmly.

Grandmother Sun immediately twisted the midwife's right hand, and upon closer inspection, cold sweat broke out on her. The woman’s thumbnail had a whitish powder inside, which was already broken. If this hand were to go into the Crown Princess's body, she really didn't dare to think about it.

"Bring someone in and take this woman out to the Prince. He will handle it."

The ripples are in pain right now, so they speak in fits and starts.

Yes, Your Highness!

The problematic midwife was taken down, her fate unknown. The other two midwives were terrified and hesitated to approach Ripples.

Grandmother Sun took the problematic midwife out and explained the situation to the prince.

The prince's face also darkened. He moved his hand during the crown princess's delivery, which was clearly a challenge to him. He wouldn't let it go, waving for Quan Fu to silence and drag the terrified midwife away.

"Grandma, since we can't get the midwife here in time, you carefully check the other two midwives. Make sure they are watching closely."

"Yes, Your Highness, this old servant will definitely protect the Crown Princess and the child in her womb."

Grandma Sun rushed into the delivery room, checked the two midwives, and had them wash their hands. She even made them take off their coats and remove all jewelry before allowing them to approach Ripples.

Ripples was controlling her breathing, matching the frequency of the contractions. Although sweat beaded on her forehead, she remained calm. After all, this wasn't her first time giving birth.

"Come on, the first baby is about to be born!"

After a sigh, Lian Yi spoke.

Only then did the two midwives rush to the bedside. One of them lifted the blanket and, upon seeing it, exclaimed in alarm:

"The head is out!"

"Imperial Consort, the old slave asks you to use more strength, exert yourself even more!"

The midwife dove straight into her role, and Sun Mama finally let out a breath of relief. However, she still didn't relax, keeping a close eye on the two of them.

The ripples' body was in good health, not a sickly one, so within half an hour, the first child was born.

Congratulations, Crown Princess! Congratulations, Crown Princess! It's a little prince!

The midwife cut the umbilical cord and slapped the baby's bottom twice, “Wow wow” a loud cry immediately rang out.

Lan Chi had been anxiously waiting, carefully wrapping the little prince in a blanket and showing it to Lian Yi before carrying him out at her signal.

Although the prince was sitting on a chair in the courtyard, he still straightened up when he heard the baby crying.

When Lan Zhi came out with the little prince to announce the good news to the crown prince, a stone finally fell from the crown prince's heart. He had an heir.

"Good news, Fu! Go tell Father and Mother!"

The prince was overjoyed. He hugged his eldest son and looked at the wrinkled red face of the child, still brimming with happiness. He turned to Liang Taiyi standing beside him and instructed:

"Doctor Liang, please check the young prince's body."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Doctor Liang had the wet nurse hold the child and examined him carefully. He then bowed and said:

"Congratulations to the Prince on the birth of his son. The child is healthy and there are no abnormalities."

At the same time, both the Emperor and the Empress received news of Lianyi's childbirth and were very happy. Shortly after, news came that Lianyi had given birth to another daughter.

Since they learned from Dr. Liang that Lianyi was carrying twins, the two big shots were not surprised. They just ordered their servants to send the prepared gifts to the East Palace.

Who knew that the procession of rewards had just left the Phoenix Nest Palace when it turned back halfway, because the Crown Princess had given birth to another little prince.

"What Another one Not twins, triplets"

The Empress was astonished and asked the eunuch who came to announce the good news.

“Her Majesty the Empress sent word that the Crown Princess has given birth to another little prince.”

Then, add another gift.

The Empress had just spoken halfway through, as if she remembered something, and instructed her personal maid:

"I shall take a carriage to the East Palace and go there myself."

Yes, Your Majesty.

The other Emperor upon hearing that his daughter-in-law had given birth to three children, was somewhat surprised, but still, with an unchanged expression, asked Quanfu:

"How is the little grandson's health"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, although the young prince is a little frail, he didn't compete with his elder brother and sister for nourishment in the womb. However, Imperial Physician Liang examined him and said that the young prince is healthy. As long as he is well-cared for, he will be able to stand strong."

Quánfú immediately smiled and replied.

Then, how is the Crown Princess's health

The emperor put down the imperial edict in his hand and asked another question.

When the servant reported, Dr. Liang was taking the pulse of the Crown Princess and said that she was not feeling well.

Quan Fu pondered for a moment before replying in a roundabout way.

"As the Crown Princess, she is a great contributor to the royal family for bearing an heir. Therefore, I order Dr. Liang to do everything in his power to save her. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to explain myself to General Meng."

The Emperor had already made up his mind, so he readily uttered flattering words.

"Yes, slave will immediately relay the Emperor's decree."

Having performed a full bow, he then retreated backwards out of the study.

Ripple, now moved back from the delivery room to her bedroom, lay pale on the bed with her eyes closed and breathing faintly.eaking of which, Xia Qingran's luck was pretty good. On the day her maidservant was sent to the Meng family, she successfully left the Xia family and settled in a small courtyard that Lady Lang had pr...
