Du San Niang also learned about Fu Xiaoyu's situation and was extremely flustered. She couldn't let Cui Yulu find out, in case the girl couldn't handle the shock and had to go with Fu Xiaoyu.
"You should go home first. Don't let Yulu know about this now. Leave the rest to me."
After seeing Han Chunying and her daughter off, San Niang turned back to Cui Yulu's room.
She was lying in bed with her eyes slightly closed, unwilling to say a word.
"You should rest well. I'll go to the kitchen and make you something to eat. It's not good for your body to just take medicine without eating."
After three more days of this ordeal, Cui Yulu was still plagued by nightmares.
He couldn't sleep well and ate very little.
I've lost a lot of weight.
She was in a rare good mood today, so she put on a fox fur coat and went out into the yard for some fresh air.
"Have you heard? Our prince's fate is currently unknown. Everyone says that our princess is a jinx to her husbands. She married the prince only a few days ago, and then this happened to him. Don't you think that's unlucky?"
"Who says otherwise? I think this princess will ruin the palace sooner or later. Now that the prince has disappeared, who will still treat her as a princess?"
Several servants huddled together and whispered among themselves.
Upon hearing this conversation, Cui Yulu's mind suddenly went blank.
It seems those dreams were real; Fu Xiaoyu really has gotten into trouble again. I should have known this long ago. Han Chunying and Du Sanniang have been deliberately hiding it from me these past few days.
But they could keep it a secret for a while, but how could they keep it a secret forever? They eventually found out themselves.
She felt somewhat uncomfortable finding out in this way.
"What nonsense are you spouting? Hurry up and pay your respects to the Princess!"
Shiliu spoke up to them, reminding them to stop talking nonsense.
All the servants immediately knelt down and bowed to Cui Yulu.
Little did anyone know that Cui Yulu would simply turn and leave, looking utterly dejected.
This scene was witnessed by the Third Sister who had just entered.
He had a bad feeling; it seemed she had found out.
So he took a few quick steps, glared fiercely at the servants, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Cui Yulu up.
"Don't listen to those servants' nonsense. Fu Xiaoyu is fine now. I've already sent your elder brother to check on the situation. We should have news soon."
"You all knew all along, didn't you? You all conspired to keep it from me, didn't you?"
Cui Yulu looked at her sadly.
“We were worried that your body couldn’t handle it. Also, there’s only been no news about the prince for a while, and there’s no definite news that the prince is dead, so we plan to tell you after some time.”
San Niang tried to comfort her gently, but Cui Yulu wouldn't listen.
He just kept shaking his head, the servants' words echoing in his ears.
She felt she was a jinx, having caused her husband's death.
Thinking back on the time he'd known Fu Xiaoyu, he had indeed been quite unlucky. Could it really be related to him?
Thinking this, my body became even weaker.
Du Sanniang was extremely nervous when she saw this, and quickly sent the servants in the mansion to find Ji Xiaotang.
It turned out that Cui Yulu had bled.
This is no small matter.
"Sister, you can't do this. This child also has the blood of a prince in his veins. Your irresponsibility is bad for both the child and the adults. Don't make another mistake."
Third Sister quickly scooped her up in her arms and rushed back into the house to settle her down.
Ji Xiaotang arrived quickly, panting.
After briefly inquiring about her condition, I began administering acupuncture to her.
"Dr. Ji, will Yulu's child be alright?"
"With me here, nothing will happen. I'll get three bowls of medicine from these prescriptions, boil them down to one bowl, and she'll be fine after drinking it."
Third Sister handed the prescription to Shiliu, while she herself stared intently at Cui Yulu without moving.
We can't afford any more mistakes this time.
"Doctor Ji, can I get up now? I want to go see the Prince. Please help me."
“Master, what are you saying? Your body can’t take any more stress right now, especially the baby in your belly. You should wait until you feel better before you go.”
Cui Yulu slowly moved her hand to her lower abdomen, where she found herself surprisingly weak.
"Then can I not keep this child and go over there to check on the situation first?"
"This, this is probably not possible. You are carrying two children in your belly. It is a very rare fate that allows two babies to be in your womb. Are you really willing to let them go now?"
As soon as Ji Xiaotang finished speaking, Cui Yulu felt as if the two little ones in her belly were fighting.
Perhaps they heard me say I didn't want them, and they're unhappy with me now, so they're fighting inside me to express their dissatisfaction.
Cui Yulu suddenly felt that she was not a good mother and even considered not having her child.
"Baby, I'm sorry. It was my fault. I shouldn't have said those things. I won't abandon you. You're all I have now."
Seeing her like this, San Niang finally felt relieved.
As long as there are children around, Cui Yulu will not disregard them and act willfully.
Soon the pregnancy finally stabilized, and Ji Xiaotang put away the silver needles. At this time, the medicine in the kitchen had been brewed.
Shiliu brought the medicine over and handed it to Du Sanniang.
"Dr. Ji, could you please take a look and see if there's anything wrong with this medicine?"
Ji Xiaotang carefully examined the medicine bowl, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, he asked San Niang to feed it to Cui Yulu.
