After seven days, Li Miaohan felt increasingly unwell.
The midwife at home suddenly discovered that Li Miaohan had severe abdominal pain and immediately sent her to Taoyuan Medical Clinic.
Taoyuan Medical Clinic had already specially arranged the wards according to Fang Zhengyi's instructions.
The clinic had warned several days in advance that it would no longer accept any patients, and the surrounding area was guarded by the Imperial Guards.
At this moment, Li Miaohan had already entered the ward.
Fang Zhengyi kept pacing outside anxiously. The incident happened suddenly and he had no time to inform the palace. He just sent someone to notify them.
Now only Wang Meng is by his side.
Fang Zheng took two steps and then put his ear to the door of the ward. He could only vaguely hear the midwife's chattering inside.
When he didn't hear any movement from Li Miaohan, he immediately became anxious and knocked on the door, shouting, "Why is there no sound?"
After a while, a midwife came out of the room, looked at Fang Zheng and said with a wry smile, "Sir, the birth hasn't started yet... naturally there will be no sound."
"Don't wait here. Go wait outside. It's unlucky."
Fang Zheng glared at him: "What do you mean by unlucky? Don't give me that shit. How is the princess?"
"It's almost there, it's almost there, please be patient, sir." The midwife comforted.
"Hurry back and take care of it... Bao Da! Bao Da!"
"Understood, sir."
After the midwife entered the room, Fang Zheng sat down against the door and began to sigh.
He felt very nervous when he thought about the chance of death during childbirth... Giving birth is really scary.
Seeing this, Wang Meng said, "Master, please don't sit at the door. It has just been disinfected."
Fang Zhengyi stood up silently and returned to Wang Meng.
"Master, don't worry. The midwives here are very experienced. I did some research when I recruited them. Among ordinary people, 30 to 40 percent of them have difficult births. They can at least increase the success rate by 10 to 20 percent!"
Fang Zheng's heart suddenly twitched and he glared at Wang Meng angrily.
Damn it! Isn't that still a gamble of life?
But then he thought that an improvement of 10% or 20% was already a leap forward, so he asked, "How did it improve so much?"
"Master, it's simple. In the past, when ordinary women delivered babies, they never disinfected them. They just used a lot of hot water to do a simple treatment. Just using alcohol to wash your hands and disinfect can greatly reduce the risk."
Fang Zheng suddenly realized.
Wang Meng continued, "Besides that, these midwives all have unique skills!"
"What special skill?" Fang Zheng's eyes lit up.
Hearing about the unique skill gives one a feeling of certainty.
"When a woman has a difficult delivery, most of the time the fetus is in an abnormal position. A good midwife can break the baby's clavicle and then remove it, so that both mother and child can be safe. However, this is also very extreme and requires a lot of skill, and it is not very stable."
The clavicle is broken..and then removed?
Fang Zhengyi was stunned by such a brutal method.
"Don't we have forceps? Why make it so bloody?"
"What are forceps?" Wang Meng asked.
Seeing his confused look, Fang Zhengyi was also puzzled. In his impression, forceps were not a high-tech product and should have existed for a long time. However, looking at Wang Meng's expression, he seemed to be clueless. Could it be that he had misremembered it?
"It's something like a pair of scissors, but with an oval ring at the front. It can clamp the child's head and pull it out. Haven't you seen it before?"
Fang Zhengyi gestured with his hand.
Wang Meng fell into deep thought, shook his head and muttered, "I haven't seen it, but it still sounds very reasonable...it seems feasible."
Seeing him pondering again, Fang Zheng felt annoyed.
There is always a loophole. After preparing for so long, I still forgot something.
It would be a good thing to have an extra layer of protection, but I don’t have time to prepare now, so I can only hope that everything goes well.
Wang Meng was still standing aside, half-closed his eyes, and gestured in the air with his hands as if holding scissors.
After gesturing for more than ten minutes, he nodded and said, "Master, this is really a good idea. I will discuss it with the midwives when they come out. Maybe it can save a lot of lives."
Fang Zhengyi nodded unconsciously. His mind was now completely focused on the ward. He was very nervous and had no energy to think about other problems.
It would be nice if I had a cell phone, so I could play King of Glory to relax...
Wang Meng asked again, "Master, do you still remember that piece of jade? It is still buried in the courtyard of the clinic. Are you just going to ignore it?"
"What jade?" Fang Zheng asked irritably.
"It's the jade that killed so many people. It was even reported in the newspapers. There were rumors that there was something fishy in that jade. I took a closer look and found it somewhat magical. It's the first time I've seen jade that glows."
"Master, I don't believe in ghosts, but those who died because of the jade are too strange, and there is no reasonable explanation now. You asked us to bury it. Do you know something?"
Fang Zheng slapped his forehead one by one!
They forgot to bury the stones with nuclear radiation before and forgot to clean them up.
But he really didn't know how to explain Wang Meng's question, so he said, "That stone is poisonous. If you come into contact with it for a long time, you will get sick. It has nothing to do with ghosts. Stay away from that kind of stone next time. By the way, how deep did you bury the jade?"
"About two feet deep."
Fang Zheng thought to himself that two feet was deep enough and it was just a small accessory and shouldn't have any impact.
"Once this is over, go find some craftsmen to make a lead box specifically for the poison jade. The box walls should be this thick. Put it in the clinic and cover it with glass. Don't let anyone take it away at will."
Fang Zheng measured it with his hand and found that it was about three or four centimeters thick.
He didn't have a deep understanding of these things, and what he knew was all unreliable knowledge from movies and TV shows, but it would always be a good idea to wrap it with a lump of lead.
Suddenly, a painful groan was heard in the ward.
Fang Zheng tensed up and didn't dare to think any more, staring at the door seriously.
Now I can't help at all, I can only worry, this feeling of powerlessness is really uncomfortable...
I don’t know how much time has passed, the sounds in the ward are intermittent.
Fang Zhengyi was already sweating profusely and was in a state of confusion.
I wanted to knock on the door and ask, but I was afraid to disturb the midwife. In the end, I couldn't help but ask loudly at the door.
Hearing that everything was normal, Fang Zhengyi felt relieved.
But at this moment, several figures appeared on the stairs, led by Emperor Jing!
Li Yuanzhao rushed out from behind him impatiently, ran to Fang Zhengyi, and asked anxiously: "Old Fang, what happened?"
When Fang Zheng saw Emperor Jing coming, he forced a smile and said, "Everything is still normal. Greetings, Your Majesty."
Emperor Jing looked calm and looked towards the ward with worry in his eyes.
He knew better than anyone else about the dangers of childbirth. Several concubines in the palace had lost their lives due to difficult childbirth.
But there's no use in being anxious.
"Don't worry, it will take several hours to give birth. I have brought people from the Imperial Hospital here, let them take over if anything happens."
"Thank you, Your Majesty..."
