Chapter 573 Someone Sent Abortion Drugs
The night was as dark as dust, but the Han mansion was brightly lit, and maids were walking briskly in the courtyard and corridors.
They looked anxious, carrying boiled medicine and hot water in their hands.
Madam Han took a bowl of herbal medicine from the maid and called to Han Yan'er on the bed with red eyes, "Yan'er, come and drink some medicine. The doctor said that although there are signs of miscarriage, we can save her with the medicine."
Han Yan'er shook her head and said, "The doctor just said that I injured my body years ago, and I'm afraid I can't save this child."
She was pale and her face was streaked with tears.
Although the baby is only two months old, she and Zhou Feng already have a deep affection for the child in her womb.
Madam Han sighed deeply.
The doctor who examined Han Yan'er just now did say that, but Zhou Feng didn't believe it. He immediately sent someone to the palace to invite Doctor Xu and Du Wanchun, saying that there was still a glimmer of hope.
"Mother, don't worry about me, I'm fine." Han Yan'er wiped away her tears and finally obediently drank the medicine.
Madam Han felt heartbroken seeing her like this, and took a handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat from her pale cheeks.
Zhou Feng stood guard at the door, his face as pale as Han Yan'er's. He had never felt so helpless before. The cold night wind stung his face, and his eyes reddened.
Du Wanchun did not allow Zhou Ruiyuan to escort her. Instead, she took Doctor Xu and hurriedly arrived at the Han family's gate in a carriage, escorted by eunuchs and palace maids.
She was dressed in simple, plain clothes and wore a gray cloak. She strode down from the carriage.
"Your Highness, please wait."
The palace maids followed behind her, afraid that she might fall.
With the help of a eunuch, Doctor Xu stepped down from the carriage, glanced at the plaque of the Han residence, and then entered the residence together.
Du Wanchun stared intently as she strode toward the Han residence. Her expression beneath her cloak was colder than usual; she had never been so worried before.
In the past, she had always had many things under her control, but this time Han Yan'er's miscarriage was unexpected.
She strode towards the mansion, where the servants and maids greeted her and led her to the courtyard where Han Yan'er lived.
Zhou Feng was standing guard at the door. When he saw Du Wanchun arrive, he immediately stood up and said, "Sister-in-law, Doctor Xu, you've arrived."
For some reason, seeing Du Wanchun gave him hope, and some of his lost soul returned. His hands still trembled slightly as he spoke.
Du Wanchun stopped and asked him, "How is Yan'er's health?"
Zhou Feng's voice was a little hoarse, "The doctor came to check, and it seems the baby can't be saved."
Du Wanchun frowned. "She was perfectly fine yesterday, why is she suddenly saying she's going to miscarry today?"
Zhou Feng looked into the house and said, "I took her out for a meal today, and this is what happened when we got back."
Du Wanchun sensed something was wrong and, without saying another word to Zhou Feng, led Doctor Xu to Han Yan'er's room.
Madam Han turned around upon hearing the voice, stood up, and said, "Greetings, Your Highness."
“Madam, there’s no need for such formalities,” Du Wanchun said, walking quickly to Han Yan’er’s side. “Yan’er, come here, Doctor Xu is here. Let him take your pulse.”
Dr. Xu was still asleep when Du Wanchun pulled him here, and he was still a little dazed.
He sat down next to Han Yan'er and took her pulse. The moment his hand touched her, he was immediately jolted awake.
Du Wanchun walked to his side and asked, "Dr. Xu, how is Yan'er's condition?"
Doctor Xu quickly withdrew his hand and, looking flustered, took Du Wanchun's arm and walked towards the outside.
"Manager Du, please come with me."
Madam Han and Zhou Feng quickly stepped forward and asked, "Dr. Xu, is it the child?"
Doctor Xu interrupted them sternly, "You can't say things like that. Let Yan'er rest first."
Madam Han and Zhou Feng exchanged a glance, seemingly understanding each other.
Du Wanchun reassured them, "Madam, Second Brother, don't worry. Doctor Xu spoke with me privately; he must have a way to save Yan'er."
Doctor Xu looked unwell and didn't respond to Du Wanchun's request. Instead, he hurriedly pulled her to the courtyard outside the house.
Seeing that they had already gone far away, Du Wanchun said to Doctor Xu, "Doctor Xu, just tell me, is Yan'er's child doomed?"
Dr. Xu nodded with a stern face. "That's right, someone gave her ten times the abortion pills."
"What? Ten times the abortion pills?" Du Wanchun exclaimed in shock.
“But I heard from my second brother that the previous doctors all said that Yan’er’s original constitution was not good.”
Doctor Xu shook his head. "I checked her pulse, and judging from her symptoms, it was indeed caused by the medication that led to the miscarriage. However, because the medication was so potent, most doctors wouldn't be able to tell at first glance."
"It seems someone is deliberately trying to harm her," Du Wanchun said coldly, raising her eyes to look meaningfully at the room where Han Yan'er had just been.
"And this person was right next to her."
Doctor Xu nodded. "What's worse is that with ten times the dose of abortion medicine, Miss Yan'er will probably have difficulty conceiving again."
Du Wanchun frowned deeply, "Is there really no way to save this fetus?"
Doctor Xu sighed deeply, "Unless a great immortal comes, no one can save this child. It's already good enough that the mother's life has been saved."
Du Wanchun thought for a moment, then took out a small medicine bottle from her bosom and handed it to Doctor Xu, saying, "This is a medicine I got from the palace to prevent miscarriage. Give it to Yan'er later."
Dr. Xu didn't ask what kind of pregnancy-preserving medicine she gave him. From a very early age, he had completely trusted what Du Wanchun gave him.
He took the medicine bottle and said, "I'll try it."
Du Wanchun instructed, "After giving her the pill, please send my second brother and the people in the mansion away. I want to see Yan'er alone."
Dr. Xu nodded.
