Chapter 296 Finale
Moonlight Essence, a wine brewed by the Crown Princess.
This wine became famous as soon as it was served at the New Year's banquet.
Many people want to drink Yuehua Ning at Chaxiangzhai.
However, because the brewery only officially started brewing after the New Year, Yuehua Ning wine was not officially launched until the third month after the New Year.
In the capital, a wine shop called Yuehua Ning opened its doors, selling the very same Yuehua Ning wine that the Crown Princess had presented at the New Year's banquet.
The first batch of 30,000 jin of Hua Ning wine sold out in just two days after its launch this month.
In Yuehua Ning's shop, only a few small jars of tasting wine remained.
Those who didn't buy any wine, or who drank some and felt they hadn't bought enough, came back to the shop to place another order.
This was definitely set for three years from now.
The distillery consumes 60,000 catties of grain per month, with a grain cost of 600 taels, and produces 11,000 catties of liquor, which is sold for 7,000 taels.
They not only consumed food, but also gained silver.
Therefore, Tian Tian decided to open a Moonflower Wine bar in various places.
She specially trained a group of palace maids and servants in the palace, and entrusted them with the task of opening banquets in various places.
Meanwhile, another batch of high-yield rice seeds was successively transported out of Beijing and delivered to people all over the country.
The people sent out to collect the grain have gradually returned. The grain is transported to the palace, where Tian Tian sells it to the system, converting it into silver, which is then deposited into the national treasury...
Ling Yao allocated more funds for road and water conservancy projects...
Everything started to cycle again.
That day, Tian Tian leaned against the soft couch, looking at the account books...
To make herself more comfortable, she placed a soft cushion under her stomach.
Even so...
Her brows furrowed again and again.
Ling Yao stood to the side, glancing up at her every now and then.
"What's wrong, Sweetie?"
Tian Tian suddenly felt a sharp contraction in her abdomen, and the pen in her hand fell to the ground with a clatter.
"Sweetie?" Ling Yao ran over.
Tian Tian pressed her hand on Gao Long's abdomen, her breathing suddenly becoming rapid.
"Tiantian?"
The palace maid serving nearby quickly cleared away the obstruction. "Your Highness, is Her Majesty about to give birth?"
"If you count the days, it'll be soon."
Tian Tian took a deep breath and calmly said, "Summon, summon the midwife."
Before she could finish speaking, another contraction struck.
Fine beads of cold sweat had formed on her forehead.
News of Tian Tian's actions quickly spread throughout the palace.
"The Crown Princess has gone into labor!!" A total of six midwives from the palace rushed to the East Palace.
The head matron calmly directed, "Hot water, scissors, ginseng soup, everyone stay calm!!"
"All unauthorized personnel shall leave the hall."
Outside the palace, the palace maids hurriedly began preparations according to the instructions of the matron.
Ling Yao, who was just an outsider, was pushed out directly.
Tian Tian was pregnant with twins, so Ling Yao couldn't possibly feel at ease.
I was just pushed out, and then I stepped back in.
The nannies were too busy to pay attention to him, so they just let him be.
Ling Yao slowly approached Tian Tian's side...
Tian Tian bit down on the cork, her long hair already soaked with sweat and stuck to her cheeks.
She had no experience with childbirth and only knew that the pain was unbearable, like a dull knife churning inside her abdomen.
The head matron knelt before the bed, her palms firmly supporting Tian Tian's waist. "Your Highness, please don't use brute force. Breathe in with this old servant's rhythm, come on... inhale, exhale, inhale..."
Another nanny squatted down under Tian Tian, observing the situation at the cervix.
"It's dilated to six centimeters."
"Seven fingers..."
The imperial physician also arrived outside the door.
"Ten fingers."
"Your Majesty, come...push harder..."
Ling Yao had already taken Tian Tian's hand. "Tian Tian, listen to Granny, listen to Granny."
Tian Tian adjusted her breathing, following the nanny's rhythm...
Use your strength when necessary.
When he wasn't exerting himself, Ling Yao wiped away his sweat, and the nanny helped him wipe away his sweat too...
quickly!
With a "whoosh!", the first child was born.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, it's a little prince."
The first prince was quickly cleaned up and was originally to be handed to his father outside, but since Ling Yao was inside, the nannies simply handed the child to him.
Ling Yao managed to catch the child with only one hand, which terrified the nanny.
"Oh dear, Your Highness, you can't hold the baby like that." The nanny quickly helped adjust the position. "Your Highness, you have to hold him like this, with both hands."
Ling Yao frowned. He had to hold Tian Tian, so how could he free up both hands?
“Let’s put the child on the tatami,” he said.
The old woman froze, "This..."
"Oh dear, the second baby is in a transverse lie," the nanny exclaimed.
The air in the hall suddenly froze.
Ling Yao ignored everything else, shoving the child back into the arms of the nanny beside her, her eyes fixed only on Tian Tian, "Tian Tian..."
The imperial physician, behind a screen, "supported himself on the couch with both hands, his back arched like a cat's, specifically adjusting the baby's position."
Upon hearing this, Tian Tian took Ling Yao's hand and forced herself to kneel, following the imperial physician's instructions.
The imperial physician's method worked. In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the nanny burst into tears of joy, "He's turned around! The young master is being very obedient."
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, it's a little princess." The east was already turning a pale white when the second child was born.
"Auspicious dragon and phoenix! Your Majesty!"
The nannies wrapped the two children up and placed them next to Tian Tian.
Tian Tian was exhausted, but a smile appeared on her lips.
Ling Yao put his arm around her and gently wiped away her sweat.
Outside the door, the imperial physicians and palace servants cheered.
Ling Yao waited until Tian Tian fell into a deep sleep before coming out.
"By imperial decree, I am overjoyed that the Crown Princess has given birth to a prince and a princess. I hereby grant a general amnesty. Those who have committed serious crimes such as beheading or exile shall not be pardoned."
*
When Tian Tian woke up, she was just like any other new mother.
Whenever I couldn't see the children's breathing clearly, I would reach out to check.
Ling Yao was even exiled to a soft couch.
"My mother is due to give birth in two months. These nannies in the palace are reliable. Let them go to the Duke's mansion to wait for her." Tian Tian was still thinking about Lu Tao.
"Don't worry," Ling Yao said helplessly. "The Duke is very fond of having a son late in life. He has already found four of the best midwives in the capital to be waiting at the Duke's mansion."
"Then let them wait at the Cui residence." Tian Tian checked the little princess's breathing again, still worried. "Youyou is three months pregnant."
Ling Yao comforted her helplessly, "You should take good care of yourself during your postpartum period. After you finish your postpartum period, you still have to attend your eldest sister's wedding."
"correct!"
"Father and Mother have sent a letter back."
"They've visited many places over the past few months and have had a great time."
"Now I can't wait to go back to the palace and enjoy my grandchildren."

A month later, Ling Jun and Empress Li returned to the palace.
At their insistence, Ling Yao officially ascended the throne as emperor and made Tian Tian his empress.
Prince Lingyu was named Crown Prince, and Princess Lingyun was named Princess Lingyun.
