Chapter 501: Story of Yanxi Palace Er Qing 34
Er Qing was lying on the bed, her face pale and her breathing weak, like a delicate flower ravaged by a rainstorm, making people feel pity for her.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Something bad has happened! The Imperial Concubine, the Imperial Concubine she..." A young eunuch crawled into the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, knelt on the ground, and could not speak clearly.
Qianlong was reviewing memorials when he heard the flustered voice. He frowned and glared at them, looking dignified without being angry: "Why are you so flustered? I taught you to stay calm when things happen. Look at you now, what a mess you are in!"
The young eunuch was so frightened that he trembled all over and kowtowed quickly, saying, "This slave deserves to die! This slave deserves to die! It's just, it's just that the imperial concubine...she fainted in the imperial garden, and the imperial physician is treating her. This slave...this slave..."
"what?!"
When Qianlong heard the words "Er Qing fainted", he stood up suddenly from his seated position, and the memorial in his hand fell to the ground with a "pop". He didn't care to pay attention to it, but asked anxiously: "Why did the imperial concubine suddenly faint? What did the imperial physician say? Is her life in danger?!"
"This... This servant doesn't know. This servant only knows that the imperial concubine was carried back to Yongshou Palace, and the imperial physician has gone to..." The little eunuch was so frightened that his voice changed. He had never seen the emperor lose his composure in such a state, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.
Qianlong also knew that he was too anxious. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, but his clenched fists revealed his inner anxiety at the moment.
He walked quickly to the young eunuch, pulled him up from the ground, and asked anxiously, "What did the imperial physician say? Has the cause of the fainting been determined?"
The young eunuch replied tremblingly: "Your Majesty, the imperial physician is still treating the patient. As for the specific reason, I don't know either..."
"waste!"
Qianlong shouted angrily, pushed the eunuch away, and walked out of the palace without caring about anything else. He ordered as he walked, "Go to Yongshou Palace! Pass on my order, and summon all the imperial doctors to go to Yongshou Palace immediately and do their best to treat the imperial concubine!"
"Yes!" Eunuch Li behind him responded quickly, while quickly following Qianlong's pace and instructing the young eunuch to convey the order.
Qianlong hurried all the way to Yongshou Palace, feeling extremely anxious. Erqing's delicate and charming face kept appearing in his mind. He couldn't imagine how he would deal with it if something happened to Erqing...
When we arrived at Yongshou Palace, we saw that the usually bustling palace was now silent and the atmosphere was so depressing that it made us feel suffocated.
When Qianlong rushed to Yongshou Palace in a panic, the imperial doctors were already waiting outside the bedroom, each with a solemn look on their faces, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Seeing the emperor coming, the imperial doctors knelt down and saluted. The old imperial doctor in the lead stood up tremblingly and reported: "Your Majesty, the imperial concubine... the imperial concubine..."
"What happened to Erqing?!" Qianlong's heart tightened and he asked in a stern voice, with anxiety and worry that could not be concealed in his tone.
The old doctor was so frightened that he trembled and quickly knelt on the ground, saying in a trembling voice: "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! The Imperial Concubine is... this is a pregnancy pulse!"
"What?!" Qianlong was stunned on the spot, wondering if he had heard it wrong. He asked again in disbelief.
"You...what did you say? Erqing...she is pregnant?"
"Yes... yes, Your Majesty."
The old doctor bravely raised his head and answered affirmatively: "The imperial concubine is indeed pregnant, and... and..."
"And what? You're so hesitant. Hurry up and say it!" Seeing that he was hesitant, Qianlong became even more anxious and his tone became stern.
"And... and I learned from the imperial concubine's pulse that this time... it's twins!" The old doctor finally said the last few words under tremendous pressure.
"Twins?!" Qianlong was completely stunned. He never expected that Erqing's pregnancy would be a double blessing!
He stood there in a daze, not coming back to his senses for a long time.
Seeing this, Eunuch Li stepped forward and whispered, "Your Majesty, look at this..."
Only then did Qianlong come back to his senses. He took a deep breath, tried to calm his excitement, and then quickly walked into the bedroom.
Er Qing had woken up by now, but her face was still a little pale. When she saw Qianlong coming, she wanted to stand up and salute, but was held down by Qianlong.
Qianlong gently stroked Erqing's cheek with trembling fingers, the excitement in his eyes was beyond words, as if all the stars in his heart suddenly lit up at this moment.
"Erqing, did you hear that? We have a child, we have a child!"
A blush appeared on Er Qing's pale face. She nodded gently, with a happy smile on her lips: "I heard it, Your Majesty, we have a child..."
"Hahahaha..." Qianlong could no longer suppress his inner joy and laughed out loud. His laughter was full of happiness and anticipation.
He pulled Er Qing into his arms, holding her tightly, as if he wanted to rub her into his own bones and blood.
"I'm going to be a father, Erqing, and you're going to give birth to children for me, two at that, hahaha..." Qianlong repeated this sentence over and over again in her ears, his tone full of incredible surprise and ecstasy.
Er Qing felt Qianlong's warm embrace, listened to his strong heartbeat, and her heart was filled with sweetness and happiness. She gently hugged Qianlong back and said softly, "Your Majesty, I will take good care of our children for you, and I will definitely give birth to them safely."
"Okay, okay, okay!" Qianlong said three okay words in a row, then let go of Er Qing and looked down at her slightly bulging belly, his eyes full of love and expectation.
"Erqing, what do you want? Just tell me, I will agree to it!"
Er Qing smiled slightly, a sly light flashed in her eyes, and she said softly: "Your Majesty, I don't want anything. I just hope that Your Majesty can always love me and my child like you do now..."
Hearing this, Qianlong felt warm in his heart. He held Erqing's hand, looked at her affectionately, and said firmly: "Of course, Erqing, you will be my woman for the rest of your life. I will always love you and the child!"
Er Qing was extremely proud of getting Qianlong's promise, but she concealed it very well. Her face still looked gentle and virtuous, and no one could see any flaws.
Qianlong was immersed in the joy of becoming a father and believed Erqing's words without a doubt. He gently stroked Erqing's cheek, his eyes full of love and pampering.
At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the bedroom, followed by the shrill voice of Eunuch Li: "The Queen has arrived!"
