Eight hundred and twentieth chapters the birth of the prince
Time flies, three months passed in a flash, and Luoyang North City was still not conquered.
However, Luoyang's northern city is full of holes, and many huge gaps have appeared on the barriers on the river bank, which have collapsed in many places. The Luo River has also been blocked and drained. The river has dried up and filled a long section of the river by the Dahua army.
Tens of thousands of people in the north city were the most miserable, with a shortage of food. Wang Shichong sent people to plunder the food stored in the people's homes, leaving only a small part of them. The rest of the chickens, ducks, geese, cattle, horses and donkeys were taken away, whether they were nobles or civilians. Therefore, a famine spread in the north city, and many people could not eat anything, so they began to eat grass and soil, and the number of deaths increased sharply.
As the midsummer rainy season entered, the streets were full of corpses, the wounded were sick, and the hungry people could not walk. Sometimes, as people walked, they were exhausted, and they fell to the ground and could never get up again.
Some young girls walked out and stood under the wall, hungry and weak. At this time, if you give her a steamed bun, the girl would recognize you and pick it up to meet your physical requirements. Even if she was a lady from a wealthy family, even if she was a daughter-in-law, she would give up her self-esteem at this time.
However, food is short of food, and at first there are men who come to take advantage, but later, they will no longer be so stupid if they starve to death at any time.
Li Jing slowed down his attack on Luoyang because he had received news that the Turks invaded Youzhou and restrained the military strength of the Dahua branch in the north, causing Dou Jiande to make a big move. He commanded the Hebei army to go south, captured Liyangcang, drove Xu Shiji away, and his next target was Xingyang City!
At this time, Li Jing was not in a hurry to conquer Luoyang immediately, but wanted to lure the Hebei army, continue to come and help, and then catch them all in one go.
Chang'an City.
After Luo Zhaoyun received the information, he nodded slightly. He knew about the Turkish actions and the private alliance between Li Tang and Dou Jiande. During these months, he had mobilized his troops and elite troops continued to gather in the Hangu Pass area. He could leave the palace at any time and go to Hangu Pass to lead his troops.
However, he has not set off for a long time because Empress Changsun was pregnant for ten months and was about to give birth.
"Your Majesty, the Queen is about to give birth."
When Luo Zhaoyun heard that Changsun was about to give birth, he could no longer sit still. He ran out of the imperial study room. With his cultivation, he walked vigorously and waved. A figure flashed past and came to Fengluan Palace, Changsun's main bedroom.
Since Changsun Wurong was the queen and was the lord of the concubines and had the highest status in the harem, the palace built was also the largest, with extremely particular palaces, gardens, gardens, and gardens, and exquisitely laid out flowers, plants, trees and exquisitely arranged.
At this moment, there were many palace maids and palace maids standing in the attic of Empress Changsun, and all the princesses in the harem were here. However, Xue Zhiqing and others were also stooling. In two months, it would be their turn.
This is the birth of the first small life in Dahua's harem. It not only affects the position of the prince, but also the stability and national destiny of Dahua. Only with designated heirs of the throne can the people of Guanzhong be more at ease.
"His Majesty--"
When dozens of princesses and palace maids saw the Han King arrive, they all presented blessings and blessings, and etiquette in the palace is indispensable.
"How is the queen?" Luo Zhaoyun asked anxiously.
Ruyi stood at the stairs, Xue Zhiqing, Gao Yufei, Xiao Yiyi and other concubines. Other palace maids dared not answer easily. When the queen was not here, the princess in the palace mainly focused on Ruyi, after all, she was also one of the queens.
Ruyi replied: "Empress Changsun had a stomachache just now and had already entered the room at this time. I'm afraid she'll give birth today, and the midwife are all here to serve her!"
Luo Zhaoyun was a little anxious. After all, from modern times to ancient times, he was waiting for his wife to have a baby for the first time. He had no experience of prenatal care. He was worried and said, "Go up the stairs and listen."
"Ah...ah..." Changsun Wurong kept crying in the boudoir. Giving birth to a baby is the same for women. No matter how big or small the mouth is, the pain is inevitable.
Changsun's cry of pain made Luo Zhaoyun and the concubines feel scared and worried, especially the princess who also wanted to give birth to a child for her husband. Her face changed slightly and she couldn't help but cover her lower abdomen.
Ruyi said, "I heard from my sister that there are several pains in giving birth, one after another. I don't know how much suffering she will suffer today. But I believe she will definitely give birth naturally. Husband should not be too worried."
Don’t worry? Can people not worry? In this ancient times when technology was backward, the probability of difficult childbirth was very high. If something goes wrong, wouldn’t it take someone’s life?
Luo Zhaoyun still couldn't let go of his heart. Fortunately, he knew that Empress Changsun was very famous in history and would not have an accident today. She shouted to the exquisite palace and loft: "Rong'er, you have to hold on, I am outside the door, don't be afraid..."
"Your Majesty, I'm not afraid. I'm going to give birth to a baby boy for you, establish a prince for me, Dahua, and stabilize the country's destiny...ah..." Changsun Wurong's silver teeth were squeaking in pain, and even the dull sound could be heard on the bed.
Changsun Wurong has a beautiful face. At this moment, she is only wearing a thin pajama silk robe. Her hair is scattered on her shoulders and her willow waist is slender. At this moment, her lower abdomen is as bulging as a hill, and her legs can no longer be stretched. She bent and spreads to both sides. The midwife and the palace maid keeps helping with midwife and cleans the queen's inner leg with hot water.
The pain in the prenatal area became more and more intense. Changsun Wurong couldn't help but hum, but he and she gritted her teeth and pressed the pain to a very lighter to avoid the worry of people outside. He called "Your Majesty" and never stopped.
The princes outside were sweating when they heard this. They clasped their hands tightly, their eyes shining with tears, and they couldn't bear to listen anymore.
Luo Zhaoyun was extremely nervous and looked forward to it, hoping to break in and see what was going on. At this time, his two jade hands tightly held his big hands. He turned around and saw Ruyi and Xue Zhiqing standing next to his left and right shoulders, their eyes with strong feelings and deep concern.
"Your Majesty, don't worry too much. A woman has to go through these obstacles when she is pregnant for ten months and gives birth once she is born. As the queen, Changsun will be in peace in the world and will be in charge of the blessings of heaven!" Xue Zhiqing comforted him.
Luo Zhaoyun nodded slightly. After a while, a baby's cry suddenly came from inside, resounding throughout the palace.
