Chapter 95 Night Attack
The day of delivery is getting closer and closer. It has been raining for more than half a month in the past few days. The gloomy weather makes people irritable every day.
Yunli is over nine months old and has a big belly. She has trouble walking now.
The second baby is also in the belly. Both babies are very healthy. Yunli takes her pulse every day. Because she is pregnant with twins, she may give birth at any time.
The weather was bad these days, and it rained every day. She didn't step out of the bamboo house. Every day she either ate, drank, or slept. When she woke up, she walked around in circles in the house.
It has been raining continuously and the air in the bamboo forest is humid. I don’t know when this drizzle will stop.
Fortunately, everything for the birth was ready, and the two midwives were trained by her. She knew her own physical condition very well, and with the spiritual spring water to help maintain her physical strength, there would be no problem with a normal birth.
Now everything is ready, just looking forward to the arrival of two children
Last night, Yun Li went to the space to weigh herself. She felt like the sky was falling. She didn't wear makeup on weekdays, and she hadn't used any skincare products since she got pregnant, so she didn't look in the mirror very often. The number on the scale made her head buzz.
In just a few months, she was fed by Strawberry and Baizhi and became a fat baby, weighing more than 140 kilograms. Fortunately, she had a B-ultrasound in the space, and the size of the two babies was within the normal standard range. Otherwise, if they were too big or the fetal position was not correct, she would have suffered during delivery.
My body is too heavy. I feel very tired after walking for a while and it is a bit difficult to speak.
The stools in the room were all covered with soft cushions. Bai Zhi helped her sit down, then squatted down to massage her legs and insteps.
"Miss, I've been so nervous these past few days seeing how big your belly is."
Yun Liqing smiled and said, "It's not your child, why are you so nervous?"
Bai Zhi blushed. "Miss, you're always teasing me! I'm serious. Your belly looks scary big, and you're carrying twins. I've heard people say that childbirth is especially dangerous when pregnant with twins. Others go through the gates of hell when giving birth to a child, and you're going to have to go through that too..."
Maybe because she was a doctor, she knew she would be fine, and instead comforted Bai Zhi, "It's okay, I taught you the caesarean section and suturing surgery, and I see you've practiced them very well!
If a caesarean section is unavoidable, I will leave myself to you. You must have confidence in me. Anyway, I have great confidence in you!"
Half a year ago, she taught Bai Zhi how to do cesarean section. Bai Zhi was diligent and eager to learn, and she picked it up quickly. She started practicing on the rubber mannequin Yun Li brought from the space.
After that, she delivered lambs and sutured piglets. When Ye Er's arm was scratched by bamboo, Bai Zhi sutured it on the spot. After more than half a year, Bai Zhi was now fully capable of performing Caesarean sections.
"Miss...Miss, I...I'm afraid...You believe in me, but I don't have confidence in myself. What should I do?"
"I know it's inevitable that you're nervous, but the more critical the moment, the more you need to keep a calm mind.
Besides, a caesarean section is only a last resort, and a natural birth should not be a problem, so you must adjust your mindset."
"Yes, Miss, I know."
…
At night, Yunli ate a little too much for dinner, so her stomach was bloated and she couldn't sleep for a while.
With the sound of rain outside the window, she leaned against the bed and read the medical book.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound of footsteps on the roof, and she, with her keen senses, immediately felt something was wrong.
When I reached out, a small pistol appeared in my palm, keeping alert.
Ye Er outside suddenly looked up and saw through the night vision binoculars given by his master that the roof was already covered with human figures.
He gave a signal with his eyes and then flew up into the air.
The man in black on the roof immediately drew out his long knife, quickly jumped down from the roof, and slashed at Ye Er.
The Night Shadow Guards who received the signal moved from their respective positions towards the bamboo house.
"Swoosh" a cold arrow shot out, and a man in black fell to the ground
There was a fight outside the house. Yun Li came to the window and lifted a corner of the curtain. It was pitch black outside and she could not see anything. There was only the sound of swords swishing around.
Ye Er was having a hard time dealing with it. He looked up and saw a group of people coming up from the bottom of the mountain in the darkness, holding torches and heading towards the bamboo house.
An Ye was hiding in the dark. Seeing this, he covered his face with a black cloth and joined the battle. The man in black thought he was an accomplice and did not react. An Ye took this opportunity to kill several people in a row.
Ye Er took a sword and fought with the black-clad men who rushed over. These men were very skilled and had received professional training.
This surprised Ye Er. His mistress clearly looked like a beautiful young lady. Who had she offended? To whom would she resort to such shady tactics...
They are all hiding in the bamboo forest. These people can still be found. But no matter who sent them, he will do his best to make them go away without returning. If they dare to attack his master, then who is more powerful will be the winner.
He found an opportunity to take out the Anran Xiaohun Powder given by his master from his chest, grabbed a handful and sprinkled it towards the black-clad man opposite.
I don't know if this medicine will work with the rain mixed in with the water...
The master told him that this was called "all is fair in war!" Although some of the victory was unfair, they had come to him and were willing to die. The master said that the process was not important, as long as the result was right!
Unexpectedly, the Desolate Soul Powder was very effective and did not lose its efficacy due to the rain. The man in black opposite fell to the ground and foamed at the mouth after inhaling the powder.
Following the same method, Ye Er grabbed the Anran Xiaohun Powder, used his Qinggong skills, and sprinkled it on the head of the person on the ground.
Soon, many people at the scene fell to the ground.
He came to the window and asked: "Master, what should we do?"
"Just leave one person alive for questioning, and make sure they explain everything."
"Yes! Master! Oh, by the way, Master, you didn't give me the antidote to the Desolate Soul Powder."
Yun Li was stunned for a moment, searching for the antidote for the Desolate Soul Powder in her mind. She took out a white bottle on the corner of the table in the medical room and threw it to Ye Er.
"Just smell it through your nose and mouth and it will be relieved."
"Yes, Master! Then Master, please take a rest. I will take care of the rest of the work!"
"Um!"
Those black-clad men who were about to rush up the mountain, Ye Er had already dealt with them with the Desolate Soul Powder. Now there were many black-clad men lying on the ground.
Several of Ye Meiwei's brothers were caught in the attack without paying attention. Ye Er had them dragged out first and then gave them the antidote.
The other men in black dragged them to one side of the bamboo forest, confiscated their weapons, searched each person's body until there was nothing on them, and then tied them to the bamboo with ropes.
Ye Er discovered that these people had one thing in common: they all had deadly poison hidden in their tooth sockets. From this, it could be inferred that this group of people were like death squads trained by princes and nobles.
…
That night, Yun Li felt that she slept very unsteadily. It might be because of the sneak attack by the men in black last night. She felt that there were so many well-trained killers coming at once. She thought it was very strange. For a moment, she thought of many people in her mind.
Yun Ran? Yun Wei? Yun Qingshan? Thinking about it, they were the only ones she had offended. However, this group of men in black seemed to number more than thirty, and it was unlikely that Yun Ran and Yun Wei could have sent them. Ye Er said that these people were extremely skilled in martial arts, and if it weren't for the poison she had given them, they would not be able to withstand it.
Aside from the arson incident in the past few months, she had a feeling that the only reason she came at this time was for her stomach...
But who would know she was pregnant? Yun Li couldn't help but touch her belly with both hands.
Ye Er knocked on the door and said, "Master, I have found out."
Yun Li took the clothes off the hanger, put them on and said in a deep voice, "Come in and talk."
"Master, they are the secret guards around the emperor."
Yun Li was surprised: "Sent by the Emperor?"
"Yes! A total of 33 people had poison in their back tooth sockets. Fortunately, we discovered it in time. When they were unconscious from the Chinese medicine, our subordinates pried out their teeth and took out all the poison hidden inside. Only then did we find out through interrogation."
"Okay, I understand. Go and deal with them."
"Yes! Master!"
After Ye Er left, Yun Li's heart sank. She couldn't fathom that these people were sent by the Emperor. Did the Emperor know she was pregnant? Did he want to get rid of her? But couldn't he just issue an imperial decree? Why would he go to such great lengths, sending over thirty assassins to kill a weak woman like her?
I've been thinking about it for a long time, my head hurts, but I still can't figure it out. Forget it, I won't think about it anymore.
I plan to give the Night Guards some self-defense poisons to strengthen the defense here. This place has been exposed. Now that the birth is imminent, it is no longer realistic to move away. We can only defend it strictly.
…
"Hurry up, move all these things in!"
Yunli was just walking back and forth in the room. To facilitate childbirth, she now had to walk 10,000 steps every day. She just came out of the bedroom when she heard Cherry's voice.
When I got to the door, I saw a carriage with things in it. The driver and the Night Shadow Guard were taking them down.
"What is this?"
"Miss, this is from Miss Xia and Miss Wei. They are all food and daily necessities, as well as some medicinal herbs and supplements. This letter is from Miss Xia."
Yingtao handed the letter to Yunli, who took it and opened it, a hint of joy flashing across her face.
The letter said that Xia Yanzhi had met her ideal husband and was engaged to him. He was the new champion of the imperial examination this year. They fell in love at first sight. The Xia family was also very satisfied with the marriage and they discussed the engagement privately.
This is a good thing. Yun Li thought that she should prepare a good gift and give it to Xia Yanzhi when she gets married.
The two of them would send her something every two months, and the words in the letters were full of concern for her.
She is truly happy to have these two friends, and she also hopes that they can find their own happiness.
…
An Ye, who was hiding in the dark, was shocked. After hearing the conversation between Ye Er and the princess, he never thought that it was someone sent by the emperor. The letter was sent to the palace today. He was guarding the princess in the bamboo forest and could not leave, so he could only let the palace investigate privately. Before the letter was sent out, Ye Er had already pried open her mouth.
The emperor just gave the prince a marriage, and then he set his sights on the princess, and even sent so many people to assassinate her. His intentions are obvious, and it is too unkind! He doesn't want his prince to have an easy life.
Fortunately, the prince had foresight and mobilized 50,000 troops. It seems that he has to go down the mountain to mobilize some of the troops to guard the foot of the mountain and strengthen the guard. The princess is about to give birth, and nothing can go wrong again.
He also wanted to send a letter to the prince immediately about this matter. His prince was fighting on the front lines, but his father wanted to make him have no descendants. The emperor was really a piece of shit...
An Ye couldn't help but curse in his heart. He was going to take this out on his princess. What had his princess done to anyone? She was hiding in the mountains, and yet someone wouldn't let her go. They were either setting her on fire or killing her...
…
At the same time, all the soldiers in the northwest stood neatly under the city wall and looked at Helian Chi who was wearing armor and a mask. Their confidence increased. Everyone in the northwest knew that the King of Yu personally led the army and was invincible!
Since coming to the northwest, he has fought against the Sangyou Kingdom several times. He calculated that Yunli was about to give birth. He was eager to go home and wanted to find a chance to return to the capital. He wanted to be with her during the birth and watch his child being born with his own eyes.
Therefore, in this battle, he focused on attacking the weak points of Sangyou Kingdom and buying time for himself.
Helian Chi didn't say anything extra. He looked at the soldiers downstairs and said in a deep voice, "Is everyone ready?"
Soldiers: "Ready!" The voice was loud and deafening!
"I hope everyone will give their all in this battle. After victory, all soldiers will have three days of rest! All captured spoils will be distributed among everyone according to their merits. In addition, I will give everyone two months' extra military pay!"
As soon as the words fell, deafening shouts rang out again from below the city wall: "Your Majesty is mighty! The Northwest Army will win! The Northwest Army will win!"
Helian Chi never mistreats his soldiers. They sacrificed their lives to defend their country for the sake of the people of Yueqi. Without them, how could Yueqi be prosperous?
So they shouldn’t be treated unfairly! Big words and big promises are not as real as actual actions!
The troops were inspected on the battlefield, and they swore to go to war. The drums were beating, the hooves were clattering, and the dust was flying.
The soldiers rushed to the front line with high spirits, and Helian Chi rode his warhorse in the front.
The Northwest Army was full of momentum. At Helian Chi's command, they took the initiative to attack. Swords flashed, blood splattered, and soon many soldiers and horses of Sangyou Country fell to the ground on the battlefield.
The army of Sangyou Kingdom was completely defeated. Finally, the Northwest Army broke through a city of Sangyou Kingdom, and Sangyou Kingdom raised its flag and surrendered.
It only took half a day for the war to end.
Helian Chi returned to the tent, took off his armor, and ordered someone to bring water to wash off the bloody smell on his body.
He planned to arrange the military affairs and temporarily cease the fighting. This battle required the Sangyou Kingdom to recuperate. He could take advantage of the opportunity to defeat the Sangyou Kingdom in one fell swoop.
But Yunli was about to give birth, and he was eager to go home. He had to go back. The defeat of Sangyou Kingdom was a foregone conclusion. When Yunli gave birth safely, the day he returned to the northwest would be the day when Sangyou Kingdom was defeated.
…
In the middle of the night, Helian Chi rode his warhorse all the way to the capital. He was returning to the capital secretly this time, so he did not bring anyone with him. He was alone so as not to be conspicuous.
It takes five days and five nights to rush back to the capital from the northwest without any rest. I hope I can make it in time.
He missed Yunli so much that he missed her like crazy every day when he came here.
He didn't know where the love came from, but it was so deep. He only understood the meaning of this sentence when he missed Yunli.
