After thinking for a moment, Tang Chen confirmed again, "...In other words, the legendary Ou Yezi from Nanyue is indeed him?"
"That's right."
"Uh, over there in the secret cave..."
Wang Ruo thought about the secret cave and whether to keep it a secret or not seemed to make no difference: "I gave the map to the people in the black market, and they will go and check it for me. I was worried about this place, so I came back."
As soon as Wang Ruo finished speaking, Tang Chen, who had been sitting across from her peacefully, suddenly cried out in pain, clutching his stomach. Beads of sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead. "Hiss!"
Seeing this, Wang Ruo rushed forward somewhat at a loss and asked, "What's wrong? How do you feel? Are you about to give birth?"
Tang Chen took a break. The pain came and went quickly, and it was gone in a short while. "It's not that I'm going to give birth. It's just that my stomach suddenly started to move. It's normal. I've been having these cramps almost every day these days."
Wang Ruo said that she had never experienced pregnancy before, but she always felt that something was wrong: "Have you asked Shuyi or Chenxin about this? I hope it's not..."
Tang Chen quickly interrupted, "It's definitely fine. It's similar to the stomachache I had when I ate too much. Don't worry, and Chen Xin comes to check my pulse almost every day. If there was a problem, he would have told me long ago."
Wang Ruo, however, did not think so. "We still have to be careful. If we are not careful, it could result in two deaths. We cannot be careless."
Tang Chen said with a mixture of 70% joking and 30% seriousness: "It's okay. I will definitely tell them when the time comes to protect me first if anything goes wrong."
Wang Ruo rolled her eyes at Tang Chen and asked worriedly, "Mo Yu has been gone for quite some time now, and I don't know if he'll come back. With him and Shen Xin around, I feel more at ease."
Coincidentally, just yesterday, Mo Yu sent a crow back with a message, saying that he was on his way down the mountain. But this bird of mourning wasn't called that in vain. The first time he used it, it returned with unpleasant news: "He's already on his way back, but Uncle Li has gone too. After the baby is born, I plan to go back and live with him for a while, to save you some energy."
Speaking of this, Wang Ruo thought of the Nanyue people she had seen earlier, and the more she thought about it, the more ridiculous it seemed to her. "Don't worry about it all the time. Those Nanyue people are like southerners who see snow in the north. Besides, they're not used to the climate, so they don't dare to act rashly. This deadlock can only be broken when the snow melts. It's a good opportunity for both sides to take this time to recuperate."
Tang Chen sighed deeply and said, "Everyone is busy outside with national affairs and defending the country. I am so isolated in a corner that I often feel a little embarrassed."
Regardless of the situation, everyone knew she wanted to help. Right now, as long as she was safe, that was the best thing for them. "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Your situation is special."
The two chatted about the past for a while, reminiscing about the past. Then Tang Chen suddenly changed his tone and took the script of a melodrama: "...A Ruo, if, I mean if, if I encounter danger during childbirth, promise me that you will never tell Wang Yanzhou."
Wang Ruo scolded unhappily, "What nonsense are you talking about? Aren't you afraid of taboos?"
"Oh, it's just an assumption, don't worry about the details!"
...However, half a month later, Tang Chen couldn't sit still and wanted to go out and step on the snow. This step caused a big accident. If A Yuan hadn't been with him at the time, he would have ended up in the Lingtai instead of the delivery room.
Mo Yu's timing was also very accurate. When he hurried back, Tang Chen had already been in the delivery room for quite a while. Hearing the hoarse cry inside, Mo Yu's heart suddenly tightened: "How long has she been in there? I heard that the sound is not right."
Although Liang Shuyi was worried, she had been through a lot before, so she remained calm. "We've been in there for quite a while now, and the midwife is in there now. Giving birth is like walking through the gates of hell, it's always like this."
Liang Shuyi, who was comforting Mo Yu just a second ago, calmed down for another half an hour, and finally, like everyone else, could no longer sit still: "She seems to have been in pain for a long time, husband, how about you..."
Mo Yu said that although a doctor's benevolence is not gender-specific, Chen Xin is now a father, so it is not convenient after all: "I'm afraid he is not suitable, so I'll go."
Chen Xin raised his hand to stop him and said, "You just came back, take a break first. Shuyi, go inside and ask the midwife what's going on."
"I can't care about that anymore. I have to go in and take a look. I feel like something is wrong." Without waiting for anyone to react, Mo Yu was already outside the delivery room. He happened to see the maids inside carrying basins of blood out. The scene was truly horrifying.
Just as Mo Yu was about to rush in, A Yuan appeared out of nowhere and pulled him back: "Hey, Master, you can't go in!"
Mo Yu threw his hands and said, "What's the problem? What's going on inside? Why is she so uncomfortable?"
"I don't know about this either..."
Before A Yuan could finish her words, the delivery room, which had been relatively calm except for Tang Chen's voice, suddenly became chaotic: "Quick, quick, hot water, hurry up, Madam is hemorrhaging, where is the doctor, call the doctor!"
"What!"
When Chen Xin and Mo Yu heard the midwife calling for a doctor, they rolled up their sleeves and rushed in. Liang Shuyi was about to follow in to see if there was anything he could do to help, but was pulled back by Wang Ruo without a word.
Mo Yu examined Tang Chen, who was currently in a semi-comatose state, and his eyes were filled with disbelief. If Tang Chen had continued to recuperate according to the prescriptions he and Shen Xin had prescribed, this situation shouldn't have occurred. Now, not only was Tang Chen bleeding profusely, but the fetus was also too large, leading to a difficult labor.
"How could this happen? This shouldn't be the case," Mo Yu was still struggling. As a professional who could wield a sword on the battlefield and wield a needle to treat patients, Chen Xin already had a practical and effective treatment plan in mind. "Don't think about it for now. I'll watch over here. The medicine box is in my room. Go out and ask Shuyi to get it. Quick!"
When Mo Yu went out to get the medicine box, Tang Chen was dazed and only felt that the heart-wrenching pain just now seemed to gradually subside and disappear. Although she was a little dazed now, her instinct told her that this was not a good sign: "Chen, Chenxin..."
Seeing Tang Chen start talking to him, Chen Xin was a little happy, but she still warned him, "Don't talk, just hold the ginseng slice in your mouth. Don't worry, with Mo Yu and I here, you'll be fine."
