Chapter 110: I Must Save Her



Chapter 110: I Must Save Her

Concubine Su raised her sword and was about to stab the maid, but the people behind her quickly rushed over and pushed the maid to the ground. One of the senior maids said to Concubine Su, "Your Majesty, don't be impulsive. The princess in the palace is still giving birth, and it's not appropriate to see blood!"

Imperial Concubine Su stared at the palace maid, who was already shaking with fear.

It took a while for Concubine Su to calm down and bow to Yue Qing: "Madam Yue, Su Li greets you."

"You are too polite, Your Majesty. Is the princess giving birth?"

"Yes, Madam, please go ahead, and Su Li will follow."

Ruoyan carried the things and after he and Yueqing bowed to Concubine Su, they quickly walked to Anyue Palace led by a senior palace maid.

Concubine Su pointed her sword at Concubine Yao and said, "Concubine Yao, I remember that your palace is very far away from my Anyue Palace! Why don't you stay in your own palace and run out here?"

"My concubine, my concubine..."

"Tell the truth! Otherwise, I will sentence you to death immediately!"

Concubine Yao shivered a little: "I was just out for a walk, and was accidentally hit by this lady's carriage. The guard beside her even intended to do something bad to me..."

"Ruoyan's rank is higher than your father's. Does he think highly of you?"

"I, I didn't lie..."

Concubine Su lost her patience and said, "Come here, confine Concubine Yao to her own palace first, and in two days, sentence her to death!"

"No, no, you can't do this to me, Your Majesty. I was ignorant. Please forgive me. I know I was wrong. Please have mercy on me! You are treating me without any reason. This is against etiquette!" Concubine Yao said in panic.

"Etiquette? The Third Princess is giving birth in Anyue Palace, but you stopped the doctor outside Anyue Palace and refused to let her in. If anything happens to the Third Princess and the baby in her belly, you will be the murderer. Granting you an intact corpse is a concession. I will tell you today that you'd better pray that my Third Princess and grandson are okay. Otherwise, your intact corpse will be replaced by slow slicing."

"I'm telling you, I've been in this palace for twenty years. Unless you have a great background, you and the people behind you will have to wait for me to deal with you! Just wait for me, sooner or later, I will settle accounts with you!"

"Take it down!"

Yue Qing calmly gave acupuncture, took the baby's pulse, and inquired about the baby's condition in the delivery room, but after more than two hours, the baby still could not be born.

Shen Zhe kept walking back and forth outside anxiously, feeling very guilty.

Mo Yuchen finally returned to Anyueguan at this time. He frowned and walked into the inner hall to look for Concubine Su. Mo Yuxuan also came with him.

"Mother! How is my third sister?" Mo Yuxuan couldn't wait any longer and started asking anxiously from outside the door. As soon as he stepped into the door, Shen Zhe knelt down with a plop.

"Brother, Yu Zhan, it's all my fault. I didn't take good care of A-Li."

As soon as Mo Yuxuan saw him, he wanted to beat him up but was stopped by Mo Yuchen, who said to Shen Zhe, "Get up."

"Second brother! Why are you stopping me?"

Mo Yuchen ignored him and continued to say to Shen Zhe: "Get up, it's useless to say these things now. What you should do is pray that Xiaoli can give birth to the baby safely, instead of apologizing to us here."

"Hurry up and get up. Don't let me regret handing Xiaoli over to you."

Shen Zhe then stood up and explained the situation to them: "Madam Yue has been in there for more than two hours. I only heard Li'er crying and shouting, and carrying blood and water out."

Mo Yuchen and Mo Yuxuan both pursed their lips and remained silent.

After a while, a palace maid brought a bowl of ginseng soup to Mo Yuanli: "Princess, this is the ginseng soup that the queen had cooked. Please have a sip! It will help you regain some strength!"

Mo Yuanli forced himself to take a sip, his whole body aching as if it was falling apart.

After a while, Mo Yuanli suddenly felt a little dizzy, and heard Aunt Hua exclaiming: "Madam Yue, the princess is bleeding!"

"How could this happen?" Yue Qing was shocked. "How could I have a hemorrhage while I was giving acupuncture?"

Yue Qing quickly stood up to check. Mo Yuanli was already in a state of confusion, and the blood under his body kept flowing.

Yue Qing quickly withdrew the needle, pierced other acupuncture points, pressed the bleeding point, and said to Aunt Hua, "Aunt, go tell the Imperial Concubine to ask her to immediately invite the Third Young Lady of the Minister of Rites' Mansion. She has a unique way to stop bleeding. Just now, a palace maid gave the princess ginseng soup, which should have blood-activating medicine mixed in it."

"Empress!" Nanny Hua was extremely anxious and started calling Concubine Su before even entering the hall.

Concubine Su, Shen Zhe and the other two were waiting here. When they heard Aunt Hua coming to look for them, they all stood up. Concubine Su couldn't wait to ask, "How is it? Is the baby born?"

"Your Highness, our princess, our princess is bleeding. Madam Yue has no solution, so she can only stop the bleeding temporarily. She is going to the Minister of Rites' residence to ask for the Third Miss! She said that only the Third Miss has a solution!"

When Concubine Su heard that she was bleeding, her head shook and she almost fainted. Fortunately, Mo Yuxuan supported her.

Shen Zhe was also struck by lightning, his expression was dazed, and his lips were trembling whitely.

"Mother, you stay here first. I'll go get Miss Three right away." Mo Yuchen was relatively calm and made a quick decision. "Madam, tell Madam Yue that I will bring Miss Three here as soon as possible. Please ask her to do her best to protect Xiaoli and the child."

"Yu Zhan, take care of mother and keep an eye on Shen Zhe. Don't let them do anything."

Mo Yuchen rode out of the palace quickly.

It is now the hour of Hai. Xia Yanxiang always feels that there is something fishy about the third princess' premature birth today, so she has not rested and has been restless. She is now practicing calligraphy.

For some reason, it snowed tonight even though the weather wasn't particularly cold.

"Miss! Miss!" After hearing the report from Wenti Pavilion, Tinglan hurried to find Xia Yanxiang.

Xia Yanxiang put down her pen: "What's the matter? Are you in such a hurry?"

"Miss, the third princess had a difficult labor and hemorrhage, and Madam Yue asked His Royal Highness Prince Luo to pick you up."

Hearing this, Xia Yanxiang's hands trembled. Without time to think, she quickly made a decision: "Tinglan, go tell mother and stay over there to watch over her. Tell Anzhi to take my medicine box and go right away."

After saying that, she went out.

"Miss! Take a cloak, it's snowing hard outside!"

As soon as I stepped out of the house, I saw Mo Yuchen riding on a tall horse. He pressed his lips tightly and his expression was serious: "Hurry up and get on the car."

"Just hurry on your way, saving people is the most important thing." After leaving only these words, Xia Yanxiang and An Zhi got on the carriage. When they arrived at Anyue Palace, a quarter of an hour had passed.

The carriage was going very fast, and Xia Yanxiang had just recovered from a serious injury, so the bumpy ride was unavoidably uncomfortable, and her face turned pale when she got off the carriage.

After entering the inner hall, Xia Yanxiang saw Concubine Su sitting limply beside her with a pale face, and Shen Zhe's eyes were also full of grief.

Concubine Su noticed someone coming in. She looked up and saw that it was Xia Yanxiang. Hope suddenly appeared in her eyes. She stepped forward and held Xia Yanxiang's hand: "Miss San, you must save my Li'er. As long as you can save her, I can agree to any request you make!"
