The Emperor Xiao San's Little Concubine

Chapter 41: The Birth of Xiao Jiwu

Three months have passed, now the age of the content of a small concubine is about nine months. They can't wait to see their baby born. Throughout the day the little concubine felt a contraction in her stomach. The little concubine is very sensitive. He would scold every action taken by the prince. The little concubine felt a feeling of resentment, anger, and sadness mixed into one. The prince who had just accompanied the woman to give birth, also fidgeted to face the behavior of his little concubine.

"Prince, can you caress my stomach. It hurts a lot" said the little concubine

The prince carefully rubbed it. He did not want to add to his lover's anxiety.

"Prince, I said slowly. Can't you help me." said the little concubine angrily.

"I'm sorry" said the prince briefly.

The prince tried to calm his little concubine. He was patient in the attitude of his little concubine. The longer the contractions of his stomach get tighter. The pain in his stomach was getting bigger. The little concubine tried to catch her breath. He tried to calm his mind. The prince with trembling hands and panic tried to calm down and help deliver his little concubine. She assisted in the birth of her baby according to the instructions taught during the three months before this delivery.

"Little concubine, let's try to catch your breath. Let's try to get our baby out." said the prince calmly

Although his hands were trembling when he saw the head coming out, the prince tried to calm down so that the baby could come out safely. After that the baby's whole body came out. The prince saw a very handsome baby boy. The baby was crying loudly. The prince covered her with clothes that came from the clothes of the concubine and the prince put together. The baby was silent when he felt the warmth.

"My little son" whispered the prince as he carried the baby

"My beloved son." whispered the prince very happy.

The little concubine smiled happily when she saw her son was born safely. The little concubine was very happy to see her two loved ones in front of her.

"Prince, let me suckle her" said the gentle concubine.

The prince gave the baby to a small concubine. The baby is very healthy and handsome. He suckles very hard. The little concubine shed tears when she saw her healthy-born baby.

"Little concubine, is our son blind?" ask the prince suddenly

"Does he have flaws like me?" ask the prince worried.

The little concubine tried to check on the baby. The little concubine was very happy when she found out her baby was born normal and perfect.

"He's a perfect prince" said the little concubine

The prince who heard the news was greatly relieved. She was so scared that her baby would have the same fate as her. She didn't want her baby to have a bad future. The prince sat next to the little concubine while holding the baby's tiny hand. The birth of the baby made the life of prince Xiao San and little concubine Xixi happy and perfect.

"Little concubine, I really want to see my son's handsome face. Can that happen?" asked the sad prince

"There will be a prince. Be patient." said the gentle little concubine

"What are you saying, prince. We will be together forever." said the little concubine as she kissed the prince's cheek gently

The prince smiled at the words of his little concubine. He really wanted to see two people who were very precious to him. That night after his birth, they were always looking for a way to get out of the bottom of the lake. They wanted to immediately leave that place and return to the palace. It was already a month after the birth of his son, yet there was only a dead end. There was nothing they could do to get out of that place.

Every night the prince and the little concubine would sleep together among his sons, so that his son would not feel the cold. His son is now a month old. They try to survive by eating only grain and flowing river water. Although the pure energy in the garden was very good for the three of them, the longer the grains were unable to satiate their stomachs. The hunger of the little concubine due to her empty stomach, made her milk production even less. His strong suckling son began to fret because of the thirst of lack of breast milk.

"Prince, how is this my asi getting less and less. I don't want our son to starve." said the anxious little concubine

The prince breathed out so as to calm himself down. He kept going around and looking for a way out of the place. Until he found a water hole that gives off a bright light. The prince tried to dip his foot and it turned out that the water hole was very deep. He felt that this was their way out. The prince invited the little concubine to give it a try, but the little concubine was filled with doubts. He did not dare to try it. What if they fail and end up killing their own son.

"Little concubine do you want to try it" the prince asked softly

"I don't know the prince." said the puzzled little concubine

"But we cannot be here to starve to death" said the prince.

"Then what if that's not the way out? What if we end up dying from drowning" said the little concubine with a bit of emotion

The prince did not want to argue. She did not want to further worry her little concubine. Finally the prince relented and waited for his little concubine to be ready. The prince was just waiting for the readiness of his little concubine. During that time he tried to find food to fill the stomach of his little concubine. Sometimes the prince pretended to have eaten so that the little concubine would get food to fill her stomach. It is better for one person to go hungry than two. The prince tried to sacrifice everything for the health of the little concubine and her son.

"Prince, look at my asi much more" said the little concubine smiling happily

"Goodoo. I'm so happy." said the prince smiling slightly as he held back his hunger for these three days

The prince stuffed his stomach with stones tied together. So that he can endure hunger. He willingly had to drink a lot of water to bloat, in order to be able to fill his stomach. Although her stomach ached, all of it paid off upon hearing the laughter of the little concubine and her son.

"What are you guys doing?" ask the prince

"We were joking prince. Look at the face of our son getting handsome while smiling." said the little concubine excitedly

"really? I want to carry it." said the prince

The prince held her and tried to touch her smiling little lips. From that touch she could feel that her son was very happy. The prince hugged his son and kissed his forehead gently. The prince can feel the smell of a small baby. That fragrance was able to calm his mind that was filled with anxiety and anxiety.

"My son is very fragrant" said the prince as he kissed his son's tiny palm.

The prince kept holding his son. Prince Xiao San swung his son gently and affectionately.
