Chapter 143 She's the next one!
Zhang Chengyan would not listen to a midwife's explanation.
Two palace servants immediately stepped forward and prepared to drag her into the darkness nearby.
Jin Weige, who was standing behind him, saw this scene and clenched his teeth, the taste of rust filling his mouth. "This damn bastard!"
She wanted to go out and keep the person. This was the midwife she had hired at great expense, but she was kicked out in just a quarter of an hour.
Xiyue beside her hurriedly pulled her back and said, "My queen, you can't go, or you'll be exposed!"
She was a concubine, but she spoke for the midwife. Anyone could see that there was something wrong.
Didn’t you see that even the Queen Mother who was looking for a midwife didn’t make any move?
Jin Weige had no choice but to hold it back. Her nails pierced her palms, but she didn't feel any pain at all.
The screams of pain were heard again in the house.
Zhang Chengyan was extremely distressed when he heard this, and paced back and forth anxiously, "It's almost half an hour already..."
Duan Chunrou said in a delicate voice, "Your Majesty, it is said that giving birth is like walking through the gates of hell. Sister Zhaopin is weak, so it must be more difficult for her than for ordinary people. I believe that sister is a blessed person, and she will definitely give birth smoothly."
Ding Zhaoyi next to her rolled her eyes. She was the one who said all the nice things. She was really good at flattering.
Time passes by every second.
In the blink of an eye, two hours had passed.
The noise in the house gradually died down, but the baby's crying could no longer be heard.
Zhang Chengyan wanted to go in and check several times, but he endured it.
The Queen Mother could no longer stand and ordered someone to bring a chair, "Emperor, please sit down and wait for a while."
Bang--
The door suddenly opened.
The chief female doctor's hands were covered in blood and she looked panicked. "Your Majesty, Concubine Zhao is too weak. It is already difficult for her to carry twins. Now she is showing signs of a difficult birth!"
Difficult labor?
Zhang Chengyan just felt his mind go blank.
As an emperor, he was completely stunned and didn't know what to do.
The Queen Mother beside him said quickly, "I have long seen that Concubine Zhao is in poor health. You must protect the heir no matter what. Do you hear me?"
The chief female doctor had a bitter look on her face, "But...but that might put Concubine Zhao in danger."
"It is her honor to bear the emperor's heir. Go in quickly!"
"No!" Zhang Chengyan felt indescribably sad when he thought of Bai Wutong's death. It was as if a big hand was tightly grasping his heart, and he had difficulty breathing. "Zhaopin must live!"
The Queen Mother was anxious, her voice was sharp, "Emperor, it's already this time, why are you still thinking about Concubine Zhao? They are two princes, don't let your emotions get the better of you!"
She pushed the female doctor and said, "Go in quickly! No matter what the cost, we must protect the heir to the throne!"
The chief female doctor had no choice but to go in.
Zhang Chengyan stood there in a daze. He wanted to speak several times but didn't know what to say.
He wanted Bai Wutong.
But he also wants an heir.
Those were the children he had been waiting for so long, two sons.
If the heir to the throne is not saved this time, the world will once again be filled with gossip, and the ministers will submit memorials every day, urging him to quickly get his concubine pregnant...
Inside the house, Bai Wutong held a slice of ginseng in his mouth, feeling extremely weak.
Chan'er took a handkerchief and wiped her sweat, "My lady, you will be fine."
A female doctor acted stealthily, took out a handkerchief she had prepared from her clothes, and was about to put it under the quilt.
Yingchun had been staring at her and immediately knocked her hand away, "Where did you get that handkerchief?"
"I...I got it from the side."
"I saw it all. You clearly had it on you!"
The doctor wanted to say something, but Bai Wutong said weakly, "Am I going to die?"
The chief female doctor sighed, "My queen, if you want to save the child, you..."
"I understand. Go and ask the emperor to come in. I have something to say."
"Yes, I'll go right away." She walked out quickly, "Your Majesty, Concubine Zhao wants to talk to you."
Zhang Chengyan's body was stiff, "She..."
"You are not allowed to go!" The Queen Mother shouted sternly, "Giving birth to a woman is extremely filthy. You are the Son of Heaven, how can you go to such a place? At worst, when Concubine Zhao passes away, let her be buried in the imperial mausoleum. This is the blessing she and the Xun family have earned in eight lifetimes."
Zhang Chengyan clenched his fists and took a step forward.
The Queen Mother stood up to stop him, "Emperor!"
Take the first step and the rest will be easier.
Zhang Chengyan pushed her away and strode into the room.
The room was filled with the smell of blood.
When the doctor and the midwife saw him, they made way for him, revealing the person on the bed.
Bai Wutong's pretty face was pale, her bright eyes were dull, her clothes were soaked with sweat, and her beautiful hair, which she took good care of every day, was now sticking to her body.
Zhang Chengyan felt his heart throb, "Wutong."
"Your Majesty..." Bai Wutong forced a smile, "You are here."
"Wutong, don't worry, I will definitely protect you, and you will definitely survive!"
"Your Majesty, please stop talking. I chose to keep the children myself. As long as they can be born safely, what does it matter if I have to die?"
Bai Wutong moved her fingers and gently held Zhang Chengyan's hand, "Your Majesty, I just feel a little sorry that I couldn't accompany Your Majesty to the end, and I have to leave early."
Zhang Chengyan's eyes were red, and the seven-foot-tall man wanted to cry at this moment, "You will be fine."
"Your Majesty..." Bai Wutong raised her hand and stroked his cheek, her eyes lingering, "I don't regret entering the palace at all. Meeting Your Majesty is the greatest blessing of my life. Being able to bear children for Your Majesty is something I have dreamed of. Now that it's the end, I just want to say a few words."
"Your Majesty, I am devoted to you and have never had second thoughts, let alone anyone else. The matter of Jin Zhi was someone trying to frame me. I am leaving now, and I want to leave with a clear conscience in your Majesty's heart."
Zhang Chengyan lowered his head, resting his forehead on his clasped hands, feeling bitter in his heart, "I know, I believe in you, you have not let me down. Wutong, I am also attracted to you."
"Your Majesty, with your words, I will die without regrets. I cannot live with Your Majesty until old age in this life, and I am willing to give up everything, just to be an ordinary couple with Your Majesty in the next life."
Bai Wutong closed his eyes, tears streaming down his face, "Your Majesty, please leave."
"No, I won't leave. I'll stay here with you."
Bai Wutong insisted, "I don't want you to see me when I die. It's better this way. Let me live in your heart."
a long time.
Zhang Chengyan stood up and walked out the door with heavy steps.
As the door closed again.
He felt his heart was empty.
Something seems to be missing...
The many concubines behind him felt bitter when they saw his appearance.
It seems that the emperor really cares about Concubine Zhao, but unfortunately, Concubine Zhao is not destined to have that chance.
Jin Weige who was standing behind almost laughed out loud at this time. Although the midwife he had bribed was kicked out, Bai Wutong was still in trouble.
God is truly wise and punishes evil and encourages good. That’s the right thing to do.
The Queen sat next to the Queen Mother, raised her handkerchief to hide the smile on her lips, and glanced at everyone, finally stopping on Wen Ruyun.
Bai Wutong is dead, and she is the next one!
