Chapter 63 Conditions
Basin after basin of clean water was brought into the room, and basin after basin of blood was brought out.
Shen Changze paced back and forth outside the house anxiously, suffering like an ant on a hot pot.
Shen's mother anxiously stayed in the house, clasped her hands together, closed her eyes and prayed, muttering something in her mouth.
"God bless, Buddha bless, ancestors bless..."
More than half an hour later, Doctor Fang and Doctor Liu finally stopped Cheng Jinchu's bleeding and saved her life.
"How is the child?" Shen's mother asked anxiously.
Doctor Fang raised her arm and wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve, and said regretfully: "The child was not saved, and Madam Jin almost lost her life."
"No, no..." Shen's mother was shocked and found it hard to accept.
Doctor Fang and Doctor Liu washed their hands, opened the door and walked out, repeating what they had said to Shen's mother to Shen Changze.
Shen Changze's face was pale after hearing this, and he took two steps back, unable to bear it.
Lu Mingke had expected this, and was not surprised.
Shen Qingrong asked relentlessly: "Did you try your best? He is the legitimate son of the Marquis's mansion. How dare you kill him?"
Doctor Liu and Doctor Fang knelt on the ground in fear, kowtowed and trembled, saying: "My Lord, we have really tried our best, and we have no intention of harming you at all."
Shen Qingrong wanted to make things difficult, but Shen Changze stopped her and said: "It has nothing to do with them, get up."
Doctor Liu and Doctor Fang were very grateful, and trembled as they got up to get the medicine.
Shen Changze looked up at the gloomy sky, and felt his heart empty and hopeless, as well as deadly silence.
After a moment of silence, Shen Changze walked into the house. The strong and pungent smell of blood instantly filled his nostrils, causing him to frown involuntarily.
The last time he smelled such a strong smell of blood was on the battlefield littered with corpses after the war.
After returning to Beijing for a few months, Shen Changze had almost forgotten the cruelty and horror of the battlefield, but now he remembered it again.
He didn't like this feeling very much, and neither did Cheng Jinchu. So he wrapped the unconscious Cheng Jinchu in a quilt and carried him back to Suoyunyuan.
Cheng Jinchu, who had lost too much blood, had been in a coma. He was fed several doses of ginseng soup and qi-replenishing medicine, and was still breathing weakly.
After finishing her work, Doctor Fang went to Tingzhu Tower to report to Jiang Shu.
"The child is gone, and the adults almost died too." Chu Yu sighed, feeling that life is really fragile.
Doctor Fang nodded: "Although Madam Jin's life was saved, she will never be able to get pregnant again."
Jiang Shu did not feel happy after hearing this, but instead felt a little sad as a woman.
"Tan Yu's feet can barely walk on the ground. Go back and clean up the medicine hall. Take away what you can take away, and forget about what you can't take away." Jiang Shu said.
Doctor Fang agreed, changed the medicine for Tan Yu, and went back to clean up.
In the middle of the night, Cheng Jinchu woke up slowly and found himself in the Suoyun Courtyard.
"Madam, you're awake." Qiu Shuang, who was guarding the bed, exclaimed in surprise.
Cheng Jinchu was a little confused. After a moment of stunnedness, he opened his mouth weakly: "Is the child okay?"
Qiu Shuang's joy quickly faded, and she said sadly: "The child... is gone."
What
Hearing "the child is gone", Cheng Jinchu was heartbroken and heartbroken.
"Madam, please take care of yourself and don't be too sad." Qiu Shuang carefully comforted her.
But Cheng Jinchu didn't listen at all, and asked in tears: "Where is the Marquis? I want to see him."
"Madam, don't worry, the Marquis is in the study, I will go and invite him now." Qiu Shuang didn't dare to delay and went immediately.
Cheng Jinchu lay on the bed in despair, with empty eyes and tears streaming down her face.
Shen Changze came into the room and saw her like this, and frowned.
"Don't cry, the doctor said you lost too much blood and your energy is seriously damaged, don't be too emotional." Shen Changze sat down beside the bed and wiped the tears from Cheng Jinchu's face with a handkerchief.
Cheng Jinchu turned his head to look at him and said sadly: "Husband, our child is gone."
Shen Changze nodded: "I know, but we still have Yan Yang and Yan Huan, you must cheer up."
When mentioning Yan Yang, Cheng Jinchu's tears flowed again.
"Husband, you must save Yan Yang, he can't leave Shangjing."
Yan Yang is the eldest son of the Marquis's Mansion and will inherit the entire Marquis's Mansion in the future. If he leaves Shangjing, this honor and embroidery will have nothing to do with him.
What's the point of her hard work?
Cheng Jinchu was unwilling to accept this. She finally got the position of the legal wife and made Yan Yang the eldest son. How could she fail here?
She must let Yan Yang stay in Shangjing!
"My husband, let's go and ask Jiang Shu together. I will kneel down and kowtow to her."
Cheng Jinchu said, trying to get out of bed.
Shen Changze hurriedly pushed her back and said in a deep voice: "You are weak and can't walk. You should take care of your body first."
"But Yan Yang can't wait. The emperor ordered him to leave the capital within seven days. If we don't quickly ask for forgiveness from the Zhuang family, there will be no room for maneuver."
Cheng Jinchu didn't care. She pushed Shen Changze's hand away and struggled to get out of bed, but she fell to the ground with weakness.
"Ah!" Cheng Jinchu's face was full of pain, and she felt like her belly was rolled over by a wheel.
"Jinchu." Shen Changze hurriedly carried her back to bed, worried.
The two had been dependent on each other for six years at the border, and some emotions had penetrated into their bones, and no one could replace them.
Or rather, they had already become a part of each other.
"Husband, I beg you, save Yan Yang. If Yan Yang leaves Shangjing, Yan Huan and I will definitely follow him." Cheng Jinchu was sweating from the pain, and she was still thinking about Yan Yang.
"The baby in my belly is gone, and I can't lose Yan Yang again."
Looking at Cheng Jinchu crying and sad, Shen Changze had no choice but to nod heavily.
If the three of them left, it would be meaningless for him to stay alone in Shangjing.
Besides, Yan Yang was his first child, and he had a special place in his heart.
The next morning, Shen Changze went to Tingzhulou at Cheng Jinchu's urging.
"Madam, the Marquis is here." Chu Yu entered the room and reported.
Jiang Shu came out of the inner room and saw Shen Changze waiting in the outer room.
However, after not seeing each other for a day, Shen Changze seemed to have changed a lot, with a dark blue stubble on his chin, and a listless look, completely without the spirit of the past.
But Jiang Shu ate well and slept soundly, with a bright and radiant face.
Shen Changze looked at her and spoke with difficulty: "I believe you have heard about Yan Yang's matter. Can you go to the princess and ask Madam Zhuang to withdraw the accusation?"
Jiang Shu chuckled and said in a mocking tone: "Why do you think I can convince the princess and persuade Madam Zhuang?"
Shen Changze choked and said in a sullen voice: "I know it's difficult, but as long as there is a possibility, I have to try it."
"Then go ahead, Madam Hou, and I won't see you off." Jiang Shu turned around and wanted to go back to the inner room.
Shen Changze hurriedly grabbed her and said in a hurry: "The princess refused to see me. You are the only one who can plead for Yan Yang."
Jiang Shu turned around, brushed off Shen Changze's hand and said: "Since the Marquis asked me for help, are you sincere?"
"You know what I want."
Shen Changze opened his mouth and said hoarsely: "As long as you can ask for forgiveness from Mrs. Zhuang and let Yan Yang stay in Shangjing, I will agree to divorce."
"Empty words are useless." Jiang Shu did not agree immediately.
Shen Changze was slightly annoyed and said with an unhappy face: "Then what do you want?"
Jiang Shu looked at him steadily and said clearly word by word: "I want to see the divorce letter and the snowball first."
