Chương 1225: 467: Your Majesty's Imperial Grandson

The Empress arrived promptly, and the Crown Prince stepped forward to pay his respects.

"There's no need for such formality, Crown Prince. How is the Crown Princess doing now?" the Empress asked.

Yan Junchu then said, "She has entered the birthing chamber, and the Imperial Physician has checked her pulse. Everything seems fine for now."

The Empress let out a slight sigh of relief and was stunned to see the Crown Prince looking so anxious as she had watched him grow up and rarely seen him like this.

After a moment of surprise, the Empress said to the Crown Prince, "Childbirth is quite slow for women. It takes at least a few hours at the quickest, so just wait patiently."

She didn't tell the Crown Prince to leave; she knew he wouldn't. Why say something so distasteful?

Once the Empress arrived at the Eastern Palace, she noticed that the servants were well-organized and there was no sign of disorder, a testament to the Crown Princess's effective management on normal days.
