This child, this child!
She knew that she couldn't keep this child!
Otherwise, once the prince finds out about this, her life will be ruined!
But......
She had never been pregnant before, and now she finally had such a child. How could she bear to give it up?
Furthermore, if we really can’t keep the child, how can we get rid of him?
Si Jinyue pulled the quilt over her body and covered her head. Two lines of tears slid down her cheeks and wet the pillow.
She said in a muffled voice:
"You guys go out first, I want to be alone."
Seeing this, Chunzhi and Chunyu didn't dare to say anything more and tiptoed out of the room.
But just as they walked outside the door, they heard the princess call out, "Come here."
The two of them hurried back into the house, walked to the bed, and asked:
"Princess, are you feeling unwell? Or do you want to eat something?"
Si Jinyue stared at Chunyu and said:
"My aunt said that my father said that Si Jinxing is not dead after all.
Send someone to investigate and find out when she will leave for Beijing.
Now...she is the only one who can help me!"
It's ironic, actually!
That day, she was delighted to hear that Si Jinxing had died in Qingcheng County. She drank the drugged wine and then met Yuan Qing...
Now, she was pregnant, but she was happy that Si Jinxing didn't die...
Chunyu said hurriedly:
"Yes, I'll go right away!"
At this moment in the Juran Hall, Qi Nanyan frowned and asked:
"What did you say? That midwife hanged herself?"
It had only been two hours since the secret guard came back after interrogating the midwife.
Did the midwife die?
The Dark Guard said:
"When my subordinates went there, the midwife was indeed dead in the woodshed.
I have also seen it. The marks on her neck are crisscrossed, just like those caused by struggling while hanging from the beam!
It doesn't look like someone killed someone and then hung them up on a rope to create a false impression."
He sat upright in the chair, Si Jinyue's serious and determined expression constantly flashing through his mind.
She said that she had not had any communication with the midwife!
But now, the midwife is dead, so there is no way to verify this matter...
Qi Nanyan asked again, "Has there been any news from the north?"
The secret guard replied:
"Xuzhou Prefecture has now recovered to about 80% or 90% of its original state. The people are praising the Anping County Master for her extraordinary medical skills, saying she is a goddess descended from heaven."
goddess?
Qi Nanyue's expression turned cold. How could that woman be a goddess?
She is clearly a witch!
He never thought of her death. Even if she was engaged, he would not bear grudges and would marry her when he reached that position.
But how did she do it?
The downfall of Liu Zuhe, Jia Wensheng, and other county magistrates was inseparable from her!
He hated her so much, hated why she didn't really die in Qingcheng County!
Without her, the situation in the north wouldn't be what it is now!
However, he now found it increasingly difficult to understand. Could it be that the timid and cowardly girl before had really changed so much in just two years?
Or was it that something happened in between that he didn't know about?
He waved his hand and said:
"Continue to find out when she will return to Beijing, and set up an ambush along the way!
This girl cannot be kept!
Go ahead.”
And the woman who could not be kept, Si Jinxing, was sitting between Gu Keying and Song Xiner.
They have already passed through a county town in Xuzhou today and are now heading west to Lincheng County.
Both girls have been exposed to medicine since childhood and have some basic knowledge of it.
However, they only learned about herbs and pulse diagnosis, but had never seen the rare medical skills like the master's!
Song Xiner, who was sitting to the left of Si Jinxing, held a needle in her hand, examined it carefully for a moment, and asked:
"Master, are you saying that the potion flows from this needle hole into my blood vessels and then flows to other parts of my body?
How does that flow? From high to low?
Gu Keying, who was sitting on the right side of Si Jinxing, had two big bumps on her face and spoke incoherently:
"Master, can blood vessels bleed? Why are they bleeding everywhere?"
She was only eight years old, much younger than Song Xiner, and there were many problems that she couldn't figure out no matter how hard she tried!
There are actually pipes on the human body... This is something she has never heard of, it is simply unbelievable!
Si Jinxing looked at the two people's puzzled expressions and explained:
“Blood vessels are found throughout our body.
If you look closely at your arms, fingers, and even your face, you will see long lines that are blue, purple, or red. Those are blood vessels.
Blood circulates continuously in the blood vessels, so when the medicine drips into the blood vessels, it will flow to all parts of the body, and the effect of the medicine will come faster.
I'll show you a diagram of the blood vessel distribution pattern someday, and maybe you'll understand better."
After hearing this, Song Xiner and Gu Keying nodded as if they understood, and continued to play with the needle, refusing to let go.
Si Jinxing looked at Gu Keying and said:
"Yingying's skin is growing well. She will be able to undergo skin grafting surgery in a few days. Be extra careful these days and don't touch the bump."
When Gu Keying heard this, her large eyes, clearly distinguished by black and white, suddenly lit up, and she said excitedly:
"Is what Master said true?
Skin grafting surgery involves using the new skin from these bumps to fill in the black hair patches?"
Si Jinxing smiled and said:
"Yes, these black spots on your neck and face will be cut off and then new skin will be sewn back in place.
Does that sound cruel? Are you scared?
Gu Keying raised the corners of her lips and said, "I'm not afraid. No matter how painful or scary it is, I'm not afraid."
Looking at the little girl in front of me, there were three big bags on her face due to the expansion of the skin, and her face was extremely distorted when she smiled!
Si Jinxing said with great distress:
"Yingying is a strong girl. Only by enduring hardships can she gain more!"
Song Xiner listened to this and thought that her own county lady was so young yet had such a thorough understanding of things.
The carriage traveled for another half an hour and finally arrived at the Lincheng County Posthouse when it was getting dark.
After a busy day, everyone slept soundly at night.
The next day, early morning.
After breakfast, Si Jinxing patrolled the city with He Wenqin.
The imperial physician stationed here is named Zhao and is a young imperial physician.
After he met He Wenqin, he said:
"That day in Yunyang County, I saw that the Master was not seriously ill.
After arriving in Xuzhou City, I was sent to Lincheng County, and I was always worried about the health of the adults.
Now that I see that you are in very good spirits, I feel relieved."
Si Jinxing was walking beside He Wenqin. When she heard this, she couldn't help but glance sideways at Doctor Zhao.
He Wenqin was not seriously ill at the time, but the eight accompanying imperial physicians watched him dying!
She couldn't help but ask:
"Did Doctor Zhao ever take Lord Wei's pulse when he was in Yunyang County?"
