"Your Majesty! The two silver needles inserted just now were perfectly timed! Although Consort Xian had shown a clear tendency to miscarry, thanks to the effect of those two needles, the fetus has now been completely saved!"
"As long as you take good care of yourself afterwards, there will be no problem with giving birth at full term!"
