Chapter 265 Spare them
Concubine Li was dignified. The Queen Mother nodded. The maids had already brought chairs. The two sat down and watched anxiously. The
woman's screams could still be heard in her ears. Concubine Li's face changed and she suddenly thought of Liu Jiaojiao.
Jiaojiao's belly was not small. It would not be long before she gave birth, right? I hope she can give birth to a boy this time. In the royal family, even if a girl is delicate, she still has to look at boys at critical moments.
Yuan Baobao is very good, but she also needs a younger brother to protect her from wind and rain in the future.
After Yuan Baobao was carried into the delivery room, the imperial physician and several maids were stunned to see the emperor come in person.
You know, a place stained with blood is unlucky. A high-ranking official like the emperor always stays away from it.
Several maids looked at each other. It turned out that the rumors outside were true. The emperor was really good to Concubine Chan.
Yuan Baobao had already struggled to get down, and ran to Concubine Chan with her short legs. Looking at her face, it was clearly...
[It's over. Concubine Chan looks dead. There's no chance of survival at all!]
[I've met people with dead faces before, but there was still a little life on their faces, but Concubine Chan didn't have any!]
Yuan Baobao frowned. People like them all believed in following fate.
She would take action when encountering some things, but she would never go against the will of heaven.
For a person who is doomed to die, she has a way to prolong her life a little, but the price to pay is extremely high.
As for completely changing her fate, she still doesn't want to think about that. It
's not like she is tired of living, so she doesn't want to use her life to save an indifferent person.
The emperor's heart was as cold as an ice cellar. Yuan Baobao meant that Concubine Chan was doomed to die?
"How is the situation?"
The emperor suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and asked in a cold voice.
"Your Majesty, the queen's condition is not very good. Her body has always been weak, and now she doesn't have much strength. I'm afraid this child..."
Hearing the emperor's voice, Concubine Chan finally opened her eyes. She opened her mouth, but her voice was not loud, and she was also weak: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
The emperor walked forward and stood in front of her.
Several imperial doctors hurriedly took the old lady out and waited outside.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I love you. I really didn't know."
Empress Chan said with a bitter smile.
In fact, it was not the first time that she said these words to the emperor, but she didn't believe it.
She accidentally let the emperor get infected with the insects, and she also specially sent a pot of his favorite flowers to the emperor.
It was placed in the emperor's study.
She never thought that the insects and the pot of flowers were actually poisonous. She was calculated by her family, but she couldn't say these words. Even if she said it, the emperor would not believe it.
The emperor pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.
Yuan Baobao watched anxiously from the side, "Empress Chan, you'd better stop talking, save your strength to give birth to the baby first!"
Yuan Baobao was also a little speechless. What time is it now? What else is there to explain?
Hearing Yuan Baobao's words, Concubine Chan smiled bitterly. She stretched out her hand and wanted to grab the emperor's, but the emperor did not move, nor did he step forward to hold her little hand.
A trace of loss flashed in Concubine Chan's eyes. Yuan Baobao couldn't bear it, so he stepped forward and held her hand: "Concubine Chan, can you give birth to the baby first?"
Concubine Chan looked at Yuan Baobao again, her eyes full of helplessness: "Little Princess, I know you are a capable person. Please, help me give birth to this child!"
Yuan Baobao was very upset. How could she help Concubine Chan give birth to a child?
[Alas, I don't know whether the child can be born, but Concubine Chan...]
[She doesn't have much strength now, and her pulse is weak. It's impossible for her to give birth to the child by herself.]
[Let someone prepare some ginseng slices and a bowl of ginseng soup first, so that she can gather her strength!]
After Yuan Baobao took the pulse, he had already made a decision, and the emperor hurried out to order people to prepare.
When the imperial physician heard about ginseng slices and ginseng soup, he hesitated for a moment: "Your Majesty, it's okay to take ginseng slices at this time, but if you feed the patient ginseng soup, it's not good for the patient's body! I'm afraid it will make him weak..."
The imperial physician wanted to dissuade him, but the emperor's face turned cold: "If you don't use ginseng soup, do you have any way to let this child be born safely?"
The imperial physician was choked. As imperial physicians, they always do things carefully and wish there was no danger at all. How could he guarantee it?
[Alas, although it is said that the older the Chinese medicine doctor, the more valuable, but these imperial physicians are too cautious and dare not take any risks. ]
[Don't they think about what the situation of Concubine Chan is now? If drastic measures are not used, the child will never be born, let alone the adult! 】
【I think there is a problem with the selection of the Imperial Hospital. There should be an examination in the future. Capable people can also enter the Imperial Hospital, and those incompetent people can be directly kicked out! 】
Yuan Baobao secretly complained inside, and the emperor actually thought it made sense.
Several imperial doctors were sweating profusely after hearing this. It’s not that their medical skills are bad. It’s just that in the palace, especially around the emperor, they may lose their lives if they are not careful.
So when diagnosing diseases and getting medicine, they always adopt the most conservative method. Is there anything wrong with this? In fact, they are just trying to protect themselves.
But the little princess said it, and several imperial doctors hurriedly prescribed medicine and went downstairs to prepare it.
"Little princess..."
Concubine Chan started calling again, her voice was not loud, but Yuan Baobao still hurried over.
"Little Princess, am I... not going to make it?"
Concubine Chan asked weakly, she herself felt very bad.
Yuan Baobao smiled and comforted: "Concubine Chan, you think too much, how could it not be possible? You will be fine!"
[Alas, people at this time really have self-knowledge! ]
[I'm afraid Concubine Chan can't make it this time, but I can't tell her the truth! ]
[I just hope that this child can be born safely, and then I will try my best to save her. ]
Yuan Baobao muttered in his heart, and Concubine Chan's face changed. In fact, she had known for a long time that she would not live long. After doing such a thing, whether it was intentional or unintentional, the emperor would not spare her life.
If it were not because the child in her belly was related to the emperor, she might have died long ago.
But now that she was really about to die, Concubine Chan was still reluctant in her heart.
"Little Princess, can you please help me with one last thing?" Concubine Chan looked at Yuan Baobao with a pleading face.
Yuan Baobao sighed: "Just say it!"
The man was about to die, could she still refuse?
"My parents didn't mean it either. Can you please help me beg the emperor to spare their lives?"
