The moment the person entered, Li Yunyan closed her eyes, pretending to be unconscious.
Only in this way can we explain why she had already started the attack but hadn't called out to anyone.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty? Wake up!"
It was Li Mama's voice.
Seeing that she couldn't wake her up and smelling a faint scent, Granny Li gently lifted the blanket off her.
"Quickly! Her Highness the Imperial Concubine is about to give birth!"
With all the servants in the palace ready, Granny Li quickly called in several rough-working women, who together carried Li Yunyan to the delivery room that had been prepared.
The midwife was already prepared and waiting in the delivery room.
Li Yunyan didn't know who the Empress's spies were, or which ones they were. She only had a rough guess at the moment, but she wasn't sure yet.
She was already in the delivery room, and fearing that if she continued to faint, the Empress's people inside would just cut her open, she slowly woke up.
She let out a soft moan and opened her eyes.
She turned to look at her surroundings and asked weakly, "What's wrong with me?"
Immediately afterwards, she touched her stomach and cried out in pain!
"Ouch! That hurts!"
"My stomach hurts so much!"
Li Mama quickly stepped forward to calm her down, "It's so good that Your Highness is awake! You're about to give birth!"
Despite the pain, Li Yunyan asked, "Have you gone to inform His Majesty?"
Her eyes flickered. "They've notified them! They've already sent someone to inform them! His Majesty will be here soon! Your Highness, don't worry! The midwife is right here, so please relax and give birth!"
Li Yunyan nodded, then clutched her stomach and cried out in pain.
The midwife stepped forward to examine him and exclaimed, "Wow! He's already six centimeters dilated!"
She said reassuringly, "Your Highness, please don't worry! This old servant is very experienced. Just follow my instructions and apply force slowly!"
What Li Yunyan needs to do now is to stall for time as much as possible and try to give birth after He Beiyi arrives.
She cried out in pain as she spoke to the system: "System, approximately how much longer until I give birth?"
The system quickly replied: [Host, you've taken the painless childbirth pill; labor will be quick! You should be able to deliver smoothly in about 15 minutes!]
Damn it!
That's less than ten minutes!
Is it really that fast?
The system arrogantly declared: "Anything produced by the system is guaranteed to be top-notch!"
Li Yunyan was so angry she wanted to hit someone. At a time like this, what was she still being so arrogant about?
Sure enough, a few minutes later, Li Yunyan felt the urge to defecate.
The midwife exclaimed joyfully, "Your Majesty! You can push now!"
Li Yunyan had no choice but to start pushing, fearing she would suffocate the baby.
Before they had even put in much effort, the first baby slid out.
"Waaaaah!!!"
"Congratulations, Your Highness! It's a little prince!"
Granny Li was so happy she almost jumped for joy.
Li Yunyan nodded slightly, and less than a minute later, the feeling returned!
This is such a headache!
The medicine is so effective, I don't know whether to give it a good review or a bad review!
Then the second child was born.
"Congratulations, Your Highness! Another little prince!"
She sensed that Granny Li was ecstatic.
Li Yunyan lowered her eyes and nodded again expressionlessly.
Moments later, she reluctantly gave birth to her third child.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! The third one is a young prince!"
Seeing her happy expression, Li Yunyan thought that the Empress would not harm her three children, and felt a little relieved.
She felt the midwife working on her from below, cleaning away the filth.
He kept an eye out for any unusual noises.
After cleaning her up, the midwife left.
Granny Li also took the children to the next room, where they were looked after by the wet nurses who had been prepared in advance.
Everything seemed normal.
Aside from leaving her, a new mother, alone in the room.
She saw the roof tiles shift slightly, and Ying Huai looked at her with a worried expression.
Li Yunyan smiled slightly at him.
The two of them stood silently gazing at each other across the distance.
Gradually, she felt a little dizzy, but now was not the time to take the quick recovery pills.
Then she saw Ying Huai's eyes suddenly widen!
At the same time, a system alarm sounded in my mind!
[Beep! Beep! Alert! Alert! The host is bleeding heavily! Please stop the bleeding immediately!]
[Beep! Beep! Alert! Alert! The host is bleeding heavily! Please stop the bleeding immediately!]
Li Yunyan smelled a strong stench of blood and realized that this was what the Empress was planning.
It is quite normal for a woman to die from postpartum hemorrhage despite resuscitation efforts.
Moreover, excessive blood loss can cause postpartum women to feel dizzy and weak, making it impossible for them to even shout.
Is that why she was alone in the delivery room?
When the time comes, those involved can simply claim they don't know, don't know, or didn't hear anything, thus exonerating themselves completely.
What a deep scheme!
Seeing Ying Huai panic and looking like he was about to rush down, she immediately shook her head at him.
He mouthed: I know! It's okay!
Li Yunyan reassured him with a determined look in her eyes, and said to the system in her mind: "System, before the bleeding threatens my life, automatically put the hemostatic pill into my mouth!"
[Yes, host!]
Having handed over the system and with no further worries, Li Yunyan smiled sweetly at Ying Huai.
Unbeknownst to her, her face was as pale as paper, and her smile at Ying Huai carried a sense of impending separation.
If she hadn't remained conscious, Ying Huai would have rushed down, picked her up, and flown towards the Imperial Hospital long ago.
Ying Huai finally couldn't hold back anymore, and hot tears fell from her eyes, dripping straight into the pool of blood that flowed out, clinging to her in life and death.
He kept repeating what she had just told him: if he died, she wouldn't live on alone.
Therefore, he would cherish his life and endure it unless she called him.
At worst, I'll just go with her and become a real ghost couple.
Thinking of this, he smiled, a tender and affectionate smile playing on his lips.
The two stared at each other for a long time, and time seemed to pass very slowly, even though only a moment had actually elapsed.
Li Yunyan felt a bitter taste in her mouth; it turned out the hemostatic pills had arrived.
Did the bleeding reach the target level so quickly?
The bleeding stopped, and his life was saved, but the dizziness wouldn't go away anytime soon.
Li Yunyan instructed the system in her mind that if she fainted later, she should wake up He Beiyi no matter what.
Even if it's an electric shock!
After the system agreed, Li Yunyan waited quietly, either until she fainted or until He Beiyi arrived.
It seemed that she arrived later than expected, but He Beiyi still managed to enter Chonghua Palace before she fell unconscious.
She heard He Beiyi talking to Granny Li outside.
Granny Li responded in a low voice.
Now is the time!
With her last ounce of strength, Li Yunyan shouted, "Your Majesty!"
Finally, he shook his head vigorously at Ying Huai and then disappeared into darkness.
