Chapter 56: Disfigured Palace Maid vs. Cold-blooded Emperor
Yongfu Palace.

Concubine Lin was pinned to the ground by two eunuchs and struggled desperately.

"How dare you treat me like this? When I see Chen Lang, I will make sure you two die miserably."

The two eunuchs were not kind people. They stepped on Concubine Lin's face and said disdainfully, "I thought you were the high and mighty Concubine Rou, the apple of the emperor's eye? You're still dreaming about going out to see the emperor, right?"

"Look at you now, like a ghost. You don't even like a rootless person like me. How can the emperor like you?"

An eunuch stepped on Concubine Lin's head and twisted and rubbed it. Concubine Lin's face was pressed against the ground and the rough sand rubbed her face, causing pain.

The feeling of rubbing the master under my feet is so good.

In fact, it was because Concubine Lin was not a good person and did not treat her servants as human beings.

Now that he's down and out, naturally he wants everyone to step on him.

"Ahhh, you two slave dogs, how dare you treat me like this? I won't let you go."

Lin Fei screamed in pain and felt extremely humiliated, cursing non-stop.

Caiyue just stood by and watched. Not only did she not step forward to help, but she also smiled happily.

She used to be so loyal to the Empress, but how did the Empress treat her?

He treats himself well when he is in favor.

But after falling out of favor, he seemed to have changed and often took out his anger on these servants.

Beating and scolding were commonplace.

There were many marks on her body, all caused by the Empress when she was angry.

Burning, pinching, stabbing with scissors or needles, and hitting with porcelain or other objects.
As loyal as Caiyue was before, she hates Lin Fei as much now.

I know that there is no chance for Concubine Lin to turn things around.

Naturally, she would not continue to serve her, but would repay her in full, to her heart's content.

Thinking of this, she suddenly took out a steamed bun, shook it in front of Concubine Lin, and said with a smile: "Do you want to eat it, Madam? If you want to eat it, just call me Master, and this steamed bun will be yours."

Concubine Lin looked at the steamed bun with desire.

She had been hungry for several days. It was not that the imperial kitchen did not deliver meals to Yongfu Palace, but that they were all eaten by Caiyue and these eunuchs.

Instead, she, the master, can only starve.

Although she was extremely hungry, Concubine Lin couldn't bring herself to call Caiyue "master".

I just felt extremely humiliated.

But she was really hungry.

"You won't scream? Then continue to be hungry."

Caiyue glanced at her, put the bun into her mouth, and ate it slowly.

Lin Fei was so angry that her eyes turned red. She felt more and more aggrieved and couldn't control her tears from falling.

Caiyue saw it and said sarcastically, "Your Majesty, please stop crying. Your tears are useless to me."

Lin Fei looked at her in astonishment, her tears falling even harder, unable to control themselves.

why?
Why do you always treat me like this?
It was Yu Yao, that bitch Yu Yao. If she hadn’t snatched Chen Lang away, I wouldn’t be so miserable.

Lin Fei gritted her teeth in hatred, her blood dripping with hatred, but there was nothing she could do even if she hated her so much.

The Queen was imprisoned and Concubine Lin was also banished to the cold palace in disguise. No one in the harem could make things difficult for Yu Yao anymore and she was almost the only one favored by the harem.

In addition, she is about to give birth, and Ye Beichen now treats her like a glass doll, wishing he could protect her all the time.

Yu Yao didn't know whether to laugh or cry about this, but since Ye Beichen was stubborn, she just let him be.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day for her to give birth.

Qingtan and Qingyu are both meticulous people and had already prepared everything for Yu Yao.

Hot water, scissors, red envelopes, and a place to bury the afterbirth...

On the day Yu Yao gave birth, the queen, who was confined to Fengyi Palace, knelt on the ground and prayed to the sky.

"Difficult labor, difficult labor, or giving birth to a daughter, giving birth to a daughter..."

Concubine Lin, who was under house arrest forever, also learned that Yu Yao was about to give birth.

Caiyue told her the news specifically just to see Concubine Lin's jealous and crazy look.

Concubine Lin hated Yu Yao to the core.

Her thoughts were the same as the Queen's, and she prayed constantly in Yongfu Palace.

Pray that Yu Yao will have a difficult childbirth, or that there will be two deaths.

But their prayers were destined to go unfulfilled.

Yuexian Palace!
Yu Yao went into labor in the middle of the night. Ye Beichen was sleeping next to her, and the quilt and sheets were soaked with amniotic fluid.

"Your Majesty, I am about to give birth!"

Ye Beichen opened his eyes sleepily. He was a little confused at first, but when he came to his senses, he panicked.

Then he hurriedly put on his coat and went out quickly to call someone in.

Soon a midwife hurried in.

The delivery room had been prepared long ago. Although Ye Beichen was panicking, he managed to calm himself down in order to stabilize Yu Yao's emotions. The servants of Yuexian Palace knew that the Empress was about to give birth. Although they were also panicking, they still carried out the procedures in an orderly manner.

Yu Yao was quickly pushed into the delivery room.

The concubines from various palaces also rushed over upon hearing the news, and they were all dressed up beautifully, it was obvious that they had other intentions.

Ye Beichen glanced at these gorgeously dressed women, and his face darkened instantly, "All of you, get out of here."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Although the concubines who came were full of indignation, they did not dare to stay here any longer and could only leave unhappily.

When the Queen Mother heard the news, she rushed over immediately.

"Emperor, how is Concubine Yao doing?"

The Queen Mother looked worried and seemed very uneasy.

This is Yu Yao's first child, and she's pregnant with twins, so no one can be at ease.

Ye Beichen was also anxious, but he still comforted the Queen Mother: "Don't worry, mother, Yao'er is a lucky person, nothing will happen to her."

Yu Yao did not lie down on the bed immediately, but was supported by Qingtan in the delivery room and kept walking around.

Seeing that it was almost time, she quietly took the pain-relieving pill, and then lay down on the bed according to the midwife's instructions.

"My lady, please push harder..."

Several midwives surrounded her, some massaging her belly, others delivering the baby.
Yu Yao took a painless childbirth pill and didn't feel much pain, but there was still some slight pain.

But it's bearable.

Stab.

The first child was born.

The midwife was stunned for a moment, as she had never seen a baby being born so quickly.

It’s only been a short time, how come she gave birth already?
But he reacted quickly.

Then, they hurriedly cleaned the newborn baby and wrapped him in a red blanket.

"My queen, the baby is out, it's a little prince!"

"Oh no, there's another one in my belly!"

As soon as the words fell, the other midwife's face changed, and then she called on several other people to continue delivering the baby.

Fortunately, everything went well.

The second one came out soon.

Seeing that it was a little princess, everyone in the delivery room breathed a sigh of relief.

The queen gave birth to twin boys and girls, which was a great joyous event.

And they can also get generous rewards, how can they not be happy?

"The queen is very happy, it's a pair of twins, a boy and a girl."

The two midwives each held a swaddling cloth and handed the babies to Yu Yao with a smile.

Yu Yao smiled weakly, "Take it out and show it to the Emperor!"

After he finished speaking, he fell asleep due to exhaustion.

Outside the delivery room!
Ye Beichen's eyes turned red with anxiety. If he wasn't afraid of distracting her attention by going in, he would have rushed in long ago.

Two midwives each held a baby in their arms and came out to announce the good news, "Congratulations to the Emperor, congratulations to the Empress Dowager, Concubine Yao has given birth to a pair of twin boys and girls."

Ye Beichen did not go to see the two children, but asked anxiously, "How is Concubine Yao?"

The two midwives looked at each other, as if they had not expected that the emperor, who always paid attention to offspring, would ask about the adults' condition first.

Seeing that Ye Beichen was about to get angry, the midwife holding the prince smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. The queen is fine. She is just too tired and has already fallen asleep."

Ye Beichen breathed a sigh of relief and finally had the mind to go and see his two newborn children.

The newborn babies were red in color. Although they were twins, they were quite big, weighing about five or six kilograms, no smaller than ordinary single babies.

His little arms and legs are waving, and he looks healthy at first glance.

"Good, good, good, God bless my cause, and I will be rewarded greatly!!"

Ye Beichen was very happy and at the same time felt relieved.

If there weren't two princes, there would be no need to send one away secretly.

He took a quick look at the two children and rushed into the delivery room impatiently.

When the Queen Mother heard that Concubine Yao had given birth to twin boys and girls, she was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.

Then, he hurried over.

Looking left and right, the Queen Mother's heart melted at the two little babies in the cradle.

The smile on my face couldn't stop.

Not only did she have a grandson, but she also had a granddaughter, so her life was complete.
