Chapter 147 Dragon Embryo
His Majesty jumped up from his chair.
"This is really one thing after another." His Majesty stood up from his chair, looking down one by one, with a smile overflowing from his thin lips:
"It's really lively today."
Although His Majesty had a smile on his face, his eyes were extremely cold. That gaze swept across everyone, and the moment they met that gaze, everyone present felt their whole bodies tense up.
Concubine Rong was kneeling on the ground, and she felt her heart beating violently a few times when she was glanced at by His Majesty.
"Your Highness..."
The imperial physician knelt on the ground, trembling and pale. Xiao Yu looked down and said with a serious face:
"Lead the way!"
The imperial physician immediately got up from the ground and walked hurriedly inside.
Before I even got close to the house, I heard a painful howl from inside.
The sounds of tearing and screaming in pain were accompanied by sobbing and shouting. Just by listening to the wailing, you could tell what kind of inhuman torture the person inside was suffering.
The imperial physician had sweat on his forehead and couldn't help but look behind him.
But His Majesty looked calm, and his expression didn't seem worried at all.
The imperial physician muttered in his heart, the baby in Shen Ronghua's belly is a prince, and now that there is an heir, why does His Majesty not look too worried?
The imperial physician was truly puzzled, but he did not dare to show it. Only after he knelt and brought His Majesty to the front did he bend over and speak in a low voice.
“Shen Ronghua is pregnant, but now she has been bleeding profusely.”
Even through the door curtain, the strong smell of blood could not be concealed. The imperial physician's hands were even shaking as he lifted the curtain.
A normal person would die if he lost so much blood. Shen Qingru was a pregnant woman, and her bleeding lasted for so long, but the pulse of the fetus in her belly still showed that it was healthy.
This is obviously not common sense.
The imperial physician trembled when he thought of this: “Shen Ronghua’s pregnancy is really strange.”
"What's strange about that?" Xiao Yu just lowered his eyes and took a look before looking away.
Shen Qingru fell on the bed, surrounded by a strong smell of blood. Five or six palace maids and imperial doctors were waiting on her side, and Shen Qingru's clothes were half-taken off from under the quilt.
Looking from his direction, he could see a slightly bulging belly beneath the thin pajamas.
"Isn't there a baby in the belly?" Xiao Yu asked the imperial physician with a fierce look in his eyes.
He just looked carefully and saw that a corner of the pajamas was lifted up. What is bulging inside is the stomach, not anything else.
"this……"
The imperial physician was stumped by this question.
This is what’s so strange.
Shen Ronghua was clearly injured so badly, but the pulse was steady, as if it was there but not there. Sometimes I can get it, but sometimes it turns out to be a dead fetus.
Several imperial doctors took turns to examine him to make sure that this was not a problem of just one person.
Only then did I dare to go and invite His Majesty.
"Several of our imperial doctors have examined his pulse, but none of them can tell what it is."
It is a great shame for doctors to not know what problems their patients have.
What’s more, Shen Ronghua’s pulse condition was unheard of. They had been practicing medicine for so many years, but they had never encountered it once.
It's really strange.
Inside the inner room, Shen Qingru cried out one after another. Xiao Yu was standing at the door. After hearing this, his expression was touched but not too surprised.
He had previously suspected that there was something wrong with the fetus in Shen Qingru's belly.
It's just that I haven't conducted a thorough investigation yet, just to see what the purpose is.
I didn't expect... that I would end up like this.
“It seems that if we want to know the truth, we have to wait for Shen Ronghua to wake up.” His Majesty lowered his gaze and looked at the imperial physician beside him.
Under the gaze of His Majesty, the imperial doctors all lowered their heads.
As an imperial physician, I have no idea about these things and I am too ashamed to face His Majesty.
"Slave...slave..." The imperial doctors stammered and avoided glances.
After Xiao Yu took a look, he said, "Do your best to treat him."
As soon as he finished speaking, the curtain was opened from the inside, and several palace maids carrying copper basins came out.
Basins of blood were brought out from there. Xiang Guipin, who had just caught up, couldn't help but dry-heaved while covering her mouth.
Xiao Yu heard the noise and looked at her: "Why are you here?"
He looked at Concubine Xiang Guipin's face, but saw that Chen Fu, who was following behind her, did not start to scold her.
"I am not worried about Chen Ronghua."
After all, Shen Ronghua was in her palace, so it was normal for her to come and see if something happened, worried.
But who knew it would taste so strong?
Xiang Guipin took the handkerchief handed over by the palace maid with an embarrassed look on her face, and wiped her mouth while saying, "I caught a cold a few days ago, and I couldn't help smelling the blood."
The bloody smell went straight into people's noses, and if they smelled it for a while, their stomach would churn.
Xiang Guipin had just rushed up with His Majesty, and in order to appear closer, she deliberately got very close to His Majesty.
I had no idea that what I would see would be this.
Now I can't go forward, and it's not good to go backward. Xiang Guipin was afraid that someone would see her and talk about her behind her back.
Turning to Shen Fu, he said, "Jieyu Shen, this is your sister, you should be standing in front."
Shen Fu was standing in the corner, she didn't expect the topic to fall on her.
When she first came over, she saw Shen Qingru lying in a pool of blood. She even looked into Shen Qingru's belly, but she didn't expect that she looked like she was pregnant...
Shen Fu was still in shock.
But after Xiang Guipin finished speaking, many people followed Xiang Guipin's lead and looked over.
Only then did she raise her head and face Concubine Xiang.
Obviously, many people knew behind the scenes that Shen Qingru was her sister, but it was not a matter that everyone knew about.
Xiang Guipin brought this up at this time just to get her to put in some superficial effort.
Since we care about each other by blood, we naturally have to take action when something happens.
Otherwise, the rumors in the harem would be like soft knives that could easily take someone's life.
Chen Fu tightened her palms: "I don't know anything about seeing a doctor or taking a pulse, so I can just stand aside."
"I just hope the Dragonborn is okay."
Shen Fu's words not only solved the urgent problem of moving forward, but also made her appear dignified, polite and generous.
Xiang Guipin really didn't expect that she would refuse the matter so lightly.
An ugly look flashed across his face.
But the strong smell of blood continued, and as soon as Xiang Guipin opened her mouth, she felt it rushing straight into her forehead.
"Pin..." She opened her mouth, but she felt something rushing straight to her throat.
Unable to hold back the nausea any longer, Xiang Guipin covered her lips and rushed out the door.
The sound of vomiting continued, and even the sound of crying seemed to be diluted a lot.
The imperial doctors really couldn't tell whether the pulse was present or not.
But it is a fact that Shen Ronghua is pregnant. The chief judge of the Imperial Medical Bureau had personally confirmed the diagnosis before.
If they said he died from a sudden fall, no one would believe it.
The imperial doctors really didn't dare to say anything and could only try their best to save the situation.
Basins of blood were carried out from the house for a long time without interruption.
Concubine Rong knelt on the ground, and her heart couldn't help but start to tighten as she watched this scene.
The beautiful Ying beside her was so frightened that she almost fainted.
He fell to the ground with his eyes white, and his trembling hands tightly covered his cheeks.
"It's not me, it's really not me." Blood oozed out from between her fingers, but Ying Meiren didn't dare to let go.
Whenever she closed her eyes, she would think of His Majesty's icy gaze. The stinging pain on her cheek made her feel like she was dying, and she now had only one thought in her mind.
She was going to be disfigured.
This face is going to be ruined. Since she was a child, Ying Meiren has always been proud of her face.
Even everyone who has seen her has praised her beautiful face.
But now...Ying Meiren tightened her hands covering her face. He kept muttering, "It's not me, it's really not me..."
Rong Guifei was already upset by the crying, and after hearing this, she couldn't help but turned her head and scolded: "Shut up!"
His Majesty is still ahead, and Shen Ronghua still doesn’t know what to do. Lady Ying was frightened out of her wits by a teacup and was clearly out of her mind.
Concubine Rong wanted to reach out and cover Lady Ying's mouth. His eyes dropped, warning her not to let her imagination run wild.
However, Lady Ying didn't notice it at all. After seeing Concubine Rong, she felt like she had found a life-saving straw.
Her eyes lit up in an instant: "Cousin, save me..." The room was extremely noisy, and Ying Meiren's voice did not attract anyone's attention at all.
However, Concubine Rong's expression suddenly changed.
She turned her head and glared at the beautiful Ying, and her usually gentle face now showed a hint of murderous intent.
"Your Majesty is still here, what nonsense are you talking about!"
When Lady Ying heard these three words, it was as if a bucket of cold water was poured over her face.
She was trembling with fear and couldn't help shaking with cold all over. Seeing Concubine Rong like this, he couldn't say a word.
The beautiful Ying covered her face, leaned over to the ground and cried.
But in front, His Majesty walked out. His eyes seemed to move around the room and then fell on the beautiful Ying in the corner.
He knew Ying Meiren's personality. She was slow-witted and had been spoiled by her family since she was a child.
There are bad intentions, and naturally there are many little tricks to harm others. But Lady Ying didn't have the courage to harm the Dragonborn.
Unless she didn't want to live, how could she have the courage to attack the Dragonborn?
The attack on Chen Fu has already exposed his true colors.
How could she dare to harm Shen Ronghua with this brain?
The look in His Majesty's eyes made her feel cold. Lady Ying fell to the ground, covering her face with her hands and crying.
After being met with His Majesty's gaze, he dared not utter a single sound.
I just dared to raise my hands to cover my face and cry silently.
"Your Majesty." Concubine Rong knelt on the ground and took it all in.
She straightened her waist, took a deep breath, and then shouted to His Majesty: "Your Majesty."
Xiao Yuzhi sat down on the chair, raised the teacup and took a sip. Only then did he seem to see her.
"Why is the imperial concubine still kneeling? Help her up quickly."
The nanny behind Concubine Rong immediately bent down and helped her up.
As she struggled to get up, Concubine Rong's body trembled violently and her knees couldn't help but bend.
"Your Majesty." The nanny immediately held her steady, and Concubine Rong did not fall to the ground.
She had been kneeling for quite some time since she entered the room, and her knees had already become stiff and numb.
After getting up from the ground with great difficulty, he squeezed the nanny's hand with his right hand and leaned on her body: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The pain in her knee made her a little unsteady on her feet. This pain was really a little unfamiliar to her.
Ever since she took the position of Imperial Concubine, she has never suffered such great pain again.
His Majesty respected her very much. Since there was no queen in the harem, the concubines in the harem followed her lead. Concubine Rong still felt that she was only one step away from the position of empress, but today's experience made her realize that there was still a difference.
In front, Xiao Yu took a sip of tea, and then he seemed to remember: "I was so busy just now that I forgot about it. I asked the concubine to suffer."
"Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. I am fine." Concubine Rong calmed down and said:
"I just don't know how Shen Ronghua is doing. If anything happens to her, I'm afraid I'll feel guilty."
Nothing can happen to the fetus in Shen Qingru's belly, at least not now.
Concubine Rong felt nervous.
The concubines in the harem are important, but the emperor’s offspring are more important. She knew this truth since she entered the palace. The Emperor could allow anything to happen in the harem, but he would not allow his offspring to be harmed.
"I just hope that there will be no problems with the fetus in Shen Ronghua's belly, then I will be relieved."
Concubine Rong's words were tentative.
The movement in the inner room had stopped a long time ago. Whether there was any problem with the fetus in Shen Ronghua's belly, I'm afraid only His Majesty knew it now.
"The imperial physician is still treating the patient." Xiao Yu turned the teacup in his hand with a cold look.
“As for whether he can be saved or not, it depends on Shen Ronghua’s own luck.”
His Majesty's words seemed to give a reassurance.
At least there should be nothing to worry about in the short term.
Concubine Rong's heart finally settled down. The room was quiet, with only the sound of Concubine Ying occasionally raising her hand to wipe away her tears.
Inside the curtains, the imperial doctors tried their best for a while. Shen Qingru, who was lying on the bed, just opened her eyes slightly.
"Wake up... wake up..." The imperial physician was about to give acupuncture with a silver needle; when he saw the eyes trembling slightly on the bed, he immediately exclaimed with joy.
"She's awake, Shen Ronghua is awake." The imperial doctors were overjoyed.
Shen Qingru woke up slowly on the bed. After glancing at the people around her, she immediately struggled to get up from the bed.
“Chen Ronghua, you are not well yet, so you must not move.” The imperial physician was so frightened when he saw her like this that he stepped forward to support her.
Shen Qingru covered her mouth and coughed, with a trace of blood flowing out of the corner of her mouth: "I'm fine."
"Your Majesty is still waiting out front. Now that the young lady has woken up, I will go and report to her immediately." The imperial physician was about to leave when someone grabbed his arm.
Shen Qingru looked up and said to the imperial physician: "I'm fine, and the baby in my belly is fine too."
Shen Qingru lowered her head, her palm falling on her lower abdomen:
"Go tell His Majesty that the dragon fetus and I are fine."
