Chapter 569: Wife, Mother, and Doctor
It seemed that he heard some noise in the front yard.
When Xu Wencheng arrived at the main courtyard, Xu Qingye was already standing at the door. Song Yuntang was coming out of the house holding a large cloak and put the cloak on his shoulders with a concerned look.
The man looked at her with a smile on his face.
He turned and looked at Xu Wencheng at the gate of the courtyard.
"Is everything done?"
Xu Wencheng scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Everything is done. I just came back from the palace." He said, looking at Xu Qingye's arm, "Brother's injury is serious."
Song Yuntang said, "It's mainly because we treated him too late. He lost a lot of blood last night. He will be fine after a few days of rest."
Xu Wencheng breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good."
When he heard in the palace that his elder brother was injured, he was extremely panicked.
I’m afraid something might happen to my eldest brother.
Only then did he rush back in a hurry.
Xu Qingye looked at Song Yuntang standing beside him with a gentle expression.
"I'm going to talk to Wencheng. Tang'er, go and keep Haoting company."
Song Yuntang knew that the two brothers might have something to say.
"Then be careful on your own."
"good."
Xu Qingye responded and watched Song Yuntang's figure disappear at the gate of the courtyard before leading Xu Wencheng to the study.
…
Song Yuntang was playing with the Luban Lock with Haoting when Rendong ran over.
"Madam, someone is coming from the palace."
Song Yuntang raised his eyebrows and put down what he was holding.
"Who is it?"
Seeing this, Jiang quickly carried Hao Ting between her and Xu Yongwang, and the couple played with him together.
Honeysuckle bowed.
"The person who came was an old maid named Su, who said she was someone close to Concubine Rong."
"Noble Concubine Rong?"
Song Yuntang was a little surprised.
When she was kept in the palace by the emperor before, Concubine Rong came to see her. She was not a bad-hearted person. She even told her to go to Yihua Palace to find her if she encountered any difficulties.
Thinking back to what happened last night.
Now that her nanny has come to see her, it must be about something urgent.
"Let Madam Su come in."
Honeysuckle bowed.
"yes."
After a while, Nanny Su came to Song Yuntang with an anxious look and knelt down to her politely.
"Your servant Su greets the county lady."
After the salute, she did not stand up, but just knelt straight.
"Last night, the Prince of Zhenbei rebelled, and the queen was frightened and had constant abdominal pain. The imperial physician and the midwife came to the rescue, but the fetus in the queen's belly was in an abnormal position. She was exhausted from the birth at five o'clock in the morning until now. The imperial physician had no other way but to use ginseng soup to keep the queen alive."
Nanny Su's eyes were red and she prostrated herself in front of Song Yuntang.
"I know that the county lady is pregnant, so I shouldn't bother her. But the queen is on the verge of death. I was her wet nurse, and I watched her grow up. I can't bear it. I beg the county lady to be kind and save her life."
The stomachache started at five o'clock in the morning, and it has been six hours now.
The production time is a bit too long.
All in all, the fetus in Concubine Rong's belly is already eight months old. Although it is premature, there should be no problem for the fetus born at this time to survive.
Song Yuntang looked down at her slightly bulging belly, which was not noticeable under her winter clothes.
She knew that she was pregnant and the situation in the palace was complicated, so she might encounter various situations. But if she ignored the request, she would be upset.
Didn't hesitate for long.
"Xianing, go get the medicine box!"
Xia Ning looked worried.
"lady……"
Song Yuntang gave her a reassuring look.
"Go ahead."
If it was something else, she could ignore it.
But her current identity is a wife, a mother, and also a doctor.
Watch someone die without helping.
It obviously went against her principles.
Xia Ning was very quick and brought the medicine box in no time.
Song Yuntang turned around and explained things to Jiang and Xu Yongwang, then went into the palace with Nanny Su.
Jiang looked in the direction of Xu Yongwang with a worried look on her face.
"Last time Tang'er went to the palace to diagnose the eldest prince, he was detained by His Majesty. Will this happen again today?"
They never object to what their son and daughter-in-law want to do.
But every time I see them leaving my sight, I can't help but worry in my heart.
Xu Yongwang looked towards the gate of the courtyard and shook his head.
"Does Qingye know about this?"
Jiang thought about it.
"I saw Xia Ning came and went in a hurry just now, maybe he doesn't know yet."
Xu Yongwang looked at her and said, "Let's see what Qingye has to say first. We don't understand the affairs of the palace. Although Wencheng has become a general, he has been stupid for so many years and it's hard to change in a short time. He is not as clear and smooth as Qingye in officialdom."
"Okay." Jiang stood up and walked towards the main courtyard, "I'll go ask Qingye for his opinion."
…
When the carriage reached the main street, Song Yuntang, out of curiosity, lifted the curtain and looked out of the window.
The streets were littered with ruins.
Some even have burnt marks.
There are not many pedestrians on the road today. Even if there are, they are all funeral processions carrying corpses and people crying behind the processions.
This shows how dangerous the capital was last night.
Xia Ning took the curtain from Song Yuntang and put it down.
"Madam, you are pregnant, so you'd better not read these, lest you be contaminated by bad luck."
Song Yuntang nodded and sat up straight.
Her experience forced her to be careful.
After all, it is better to have less trouble than more.
Following Nanny Su's entry through the palace gate, she usually walked wherever she went in the palace.
Perhaps Nanny Su was considerate of the fact that she was more than six months pregnant, so as soon as she arrived at the palace gate, the sedan chair was already there.
Nanny Su made a gesture to invite the sedan chair in.
"Please get on the sedan chair, my lady. You are pregnant, so it will be easier for you to sit on it." He turned to look at the eunuchs who were carrying the sedan chair, "Be careful on the way. If the lady gets bumped, my lady will have your heads taken!"
Several eunuchs nodded quickly.
"yes."
Song Yuntang didn't say much. He looked in Xia Ning's direction, got on the sedan chair, and headed straight for Concubine Rong's Yihua Palace.
It is worthy of being the bedroom where the favorite concubine lives.
The Yihua Palace is extremely magnificent, with many valuable flowers and trees in the courtyard, and every piece of ornament in the house is of great value.
Song Yuntang followed Nanny Su into the house, where the queen and all the ladies in the palace were.
Nanny Su bowed to the Queen first.
"My lady, I have invited Princess Le'an to the palace."
Song Yuntang also bowed to her and said, "Greetings, Her Majesty the Queen."
The Queen looked a little worried, "No need to be polite, Princess Le'an. Go see Concubine Rong first."
"yes."
Song Yuntang responded, turned around and walked towards the bedroom.
When passing by Zhuang Zihan, a foot suddenly appeared in front of him and blocked his way.
Originally, the situation on Concubine Rong's side was urgent, so Song Yuntang left in a hurry. Suddenly, he was tripped and his body fell forward uncontrollably.
"County Lady!"
Everyone in the room covered their mouths in shock.
Fortunately, Xia Ning followed Song Yuntang with the medicine box.
She acted decisively, threw the medicine box to the ground, and stepped on it before the foot was retracted. Then she reached out and grabbed Song Yuntang's clothes on the back and pulled her back.
