Xiao Ruyu was about to break through, but was poisoned to death by the foundation-building pill made by his junior fellow apprentice.

When the thunderbolt struck, she was forced to spit out blood by the poison.

Junior brother! You are not reliable at all!

She was the eldest disciple of the master of Medicine King Valley, skilled in both medicine and poison, and using poison was like a game, but in the end, she was poisoned to death!

“Uwaaaaaa——”

The curse that burst out of his mouth turned out to be the cry of a baby.

His body was also covered with warm amniotic fluid, which was then wiped off with a soft cloth.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on the birth of the little princess!"

Following the midwife's joyful voice, Xiao Ruyu opened her eyes.

She felt herself being handed into a solid embrace, with a faint scent of ambergris lingering around her nose.

She couldn't stop crying physiologically and could only observe through her tearful eyes.

The man holding her was wearing a yellow robe, had a handsome face and a serious expression.

But when she touched the soft baby in her arms, she couldn't help but become a little gentler.

This is his first daughter, his little lucky star?

The little face is as white as jade, the eyebrows and eyes are small and delicate, and the chubby little hands are clutching the swaddling clothes.

As she moved, a bright red plum blossom bloomed on her exposed shoulder, which was a symbol inherited from her mother.

[Princess? Am I reincarnated? ]

Emperor Shangwen was stunned and looked around at first. All the palace servants around him lowered their heads and behaved very well.

He looked at the baby in his arms with some disbelief.

Was it this little thing that was talking just now?

[Is the guy holding me my dad? He looks a bit like me...]

Xiao Ruyu thought happily: [They say that daughters take after their fathers. My emperor father is so handsome, so I must be a rare beauty too! ]

Thinking of this, the little person smiled sweetly at Emperor Shangwen.

Emperor Shangwen couldn't help laughing after hearing this.

He finally understood that now he could actually hear the voice of his little daughter!

He did not doubt such a strange thing.

This was because on the night when the queen became pregnant, he dreamed of a god in the sky whose face he could not see clearly.

The gods praised him for his hard work over the years and gave him a lucky star as a reward.

Since I'm his lucky star, why wouldn't it be wrong to have a tacit understanding with him?

[Oh my, the Emperor looks good when he smiles! Why did you have such a stern face before? You should smile more in the future.]

"What a clever little girl."

Emperor Shangwen couldn't help it, so he raised his hand and scratched the little guy's nose, which was as big as his little finger.

"Yes, the little princess looks exactly like you!"

The eunuch Yin beside Emperor Shangwen also laughed, he was surprised that the emperor was so close to the little princess.

after all……

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something's wrong. The Queen is having a difficult birth and is bleeding heavily, Your Majesty!"

The midwife hurried out of the room with a panicked look on her face.

"Wasn't the princess already born? How could she have a difficult birth?"

Emperor Shangwen's face darkened.

"Your Majesty, I just returned and found that the Queen is pregnant with another prince... She is pregnant with twins!"

The midwife's face was pale, and her lips were trembling: "The Queen has already exhausted all her strength after giving birth to the little princess. Now she is using up her last breath to give birth to the little prince. It seems that she is about to have a hemorrhage, Your Majesty!"

"Didn't the imperial physician diagnose a few days ago that the Queen's belly was so big simply because the fetus was growing well, not twins? Why has the diagnosis changed now?"

Emperor Shangwen looked extremely unhappy. The Empress was the mother of a country, and her status was so noble, how could the Imperial Hospital make a misdiagnosis? !

[Ah? Queen? Twins? Difficult labor?]

Xiao Ruyu's voice was confused, and then she was shocked: [This is not the one I saw before...]

Before she broke through in seclusion, she went through a bottleneck period, then traveled to the mortal world and read a storybook.

[The royal family had a queen who died after giving birth to twins, a boy and a girl, leaving behind a son and a daughter who were raised by Concubine Li.

This beautiful concubine was the most favored person in the world throughout her life. After adopting twins, she became pregnant.

The emperor then named her the empress, and her position was extremely stable.

And Concubine Li’s biological daughter is the heroine in the storybook…】

[What about me? Am I the vicious eldest princess who caused trouble for the second princess, did all kinds of bad things, and was finally thrown into a mass grave? ]

Emperor Shangwen's pupils shrank when he heard this. He forgot his sense of propriety for a moment and asked in a lost voice, "Will the queen die in childbirth?"

The midwife was so frightened that her face turned pale. She knelt down and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, I didn't know that the Queen was pregnant with twins!"

The queen was sentenced to death.

Emperor Shangwen's whole body stiffened, and the figure holding the child swayed.

He and the queen were young couples, and he had no special feelings for her, only treating it as a marriage of convenience.

But they had been treating each other with respect for many years, and he couldn't help being dazed when he suddenly heard the bad news about the Queen.

[Pooh, pooh, pooh, you are the one who died! ]

Xiao Ruyu was so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes: [They say that a child without a mother is like a weed. I am still a baby, how can I lose my mother? ]

[Can someone let me go see my mother? Let me go see her, maybe I can find a way! ]

Emperor Shang Wen, whose heart was still in turmoil, came back to his senses when he heard the voice of Xiao Ruyu in his arms.

He should be skeptical. What can a newly born baby do?

But what if? He could hear his daughter's inner voice, which was enough to prove that she was extraordinary.

In a blink of an eye, Emperor Shangwen made up his mind: "I will go in and see the queen!"

These words frightened Eunuch Yin so much that his knees softened: "Your Majesty, no! This delivery room smells so bloody, you cannot enter!"

Xiao Ruyu agreed repeatedly: [Yes, yes, yes! Daddy has to take me in quickly! Let’s go save mom together! ]

Emperor Shang Wen paused and said coldly, "There is no place in this world that I cannot go!"

No one dared to stop the emperor when he spoke. Emperor Shangwen simply pushed open the door and was greeted by a strong smell of blood.

As he walked further in, he could hear the queen's increasingly weak murmur: "My... my child..."

The thin woman was covered with a thick quilt, and the sheets underneath were soaked with blood.

Emperor Shangwen's breath was choked. He came forward holding the newborn princess and said in a low, hoarse voice, "Empress."

The queen, who was completely cold, lifted her heavy eyelids, and her beautiful face gradually faded: "Your Majesty, please, take good care of our child..."

As she spoke, the queen sobbed, "I haven't even looked at them once."

[Ahhh my dear mother, her life is gone! Damn it, who did this? My mother’s life span is clearly not over yet!]

Xiao Ruyu tried hard to open her eyes and looked at the weak queen who had just given birth.

She was still very young, with a gentle face and a dignified temperament. Even though her face was gray due to her near death, it did not detract from her charm.

The queen listened to the childish voice, the calls of "mother", and her daughter's eyes staring into hers, and tears fell.

Is it an illusion before death?

Being able to hear her daughter call her mother, she would die without regrets...

[Daddy, stop holding me, let me go to my mother! I have to meet my mother before I can save her! ]

Seeing that her mother's eyes were gradually losing their spirit, Xiao Ruyu became anxious and began to struggle rapidly.

[I want to save my mother, but it’s too late! ]

The queen's scattered mind suddenly gathered. What did her daughter just say?

Emperor Shangwen's hands couldn't stop shaking as he held his daughter. He whispered, "Queen, don't go to sleep yet. Didn't you say you haven't seen the child yet? Take a look at her first."

Having said that, Emperor Shangwen placed Xiao Ruyu in front of the Queen according to her wishes.

[Mother, mother, don't be afraid, I'm here to save you. ]

Xiao Ruyu looked at the queen and then smiled soothingly.

The tender, little head was raised up and their foreheads touched.

The queen felt a warmth coming from her daughter's forehead, and she felt that her rotten body was like a dead tree coming back to life in spring.

Endless vitality revived, and her body, which was occupied by grief and fatigue, slowly relaxed. She felt like she was reborn.

[Mother, don't be afraid, I will protect you! ]

She heard her daughter's childish voice echoing firmly in her ears.
