Chapter 392 Grandma, don't be afraid, it will be fine in a moment.
Little Su Bao turned her head and looked over, and saw a pair of eyes that were half-covering her face.
"Huh..." Little Su Bao's eyes widened.
"What's wrong?" The Empress paused slightly in her hand holding the medicine bowl and looked at Xiao Su Bao.
Before the little dumpling could speak, Wang Mingtian said, "Madam, please drink your medicine first!"
The Empress raised an eyebrow but did not drink it. She looked at Little Su Bao with a gentle expression and said, "Su Bao, can you tell your grandmother what's wrong?"
Little Su Bao paused, then looked back at her grandmother and then at the person in front of her.
I'm a little hesitant.
The old woman with her face covered sighed and reached out to pull off her mask.
"Your Majesty, this old woman is from Tangjia Village, Bai Shi."
The Empress paused, looking at Granny Bai's aged face, her eyelids twitching slightly.
She knew about Granny Bai; she'd heard she was a village guardian.
Most of the so-called village guardians are people who are not very bright.
The Empress and the Emperor had both met this Granny Bai before, but Granny Bai had always been mentally unstable.
But now...
The Empress narrowed her eyes, a hint of coldness in them.
"So, you were faking it?" the Queen said calmly.
If it's an act, then Bai's thoughts are quite deep.
"No, Your Majesty, Granny Bai isn't faking it, she's really sick..." Little Su Bao said anxiously, holding the Empress's hand.
She genuinely felt that Granny Bai was good, and so was the Empress Dowager.
Grandma Bai looked at the nervous little girl and reached out to pat Xiao Su Bao's head.
"Alright, Granny Bai is fine!" Granny Bai said to Xiao Su Bao before looking at the Empress.
"In reply to Madam, this old woman is not pretending. It's just that due to her health, she is usually in a daze. Today, thanks to Doctor Wang's help, this old woman has been able to regain some clarity."
Grandma Bai spoke very sincerely, and she was telling the truth.
Wang Mingtian said from the side, "She has special skills. Without her, I have no way to guarantee that I could save the lady!"
Little Su Bao also said, "Grandma, Granny Bai is very powerful!"
When the Empress heard them say this, and then thought of what Tang Datou had said to her, she paused, picked up the medicine, and drank it down in one gulp.
She believed in Tang Datou and the Tang family.
If even the Tang family wants to harm me, who else can I trust?
Wang Mingtian looked at the Empress lying down and felt a greater sense of admiration.
He then took the silver needles and began to poke them into the Empress's head.
On the specially made bed, an extra curtain was placed around the empress's neck.
Granny Bai and Little Su Bao were on the other side of the curtain.
The Empress was taken aback. She was still clear-headed and could see everything clearly.
She could even feel her clothes being undressed!
She was slightly taken aback, then felt a slight numbness in her stomach.
If she could see it, she would see that Granny Bai was holding a series of thin gold needles and constantly sticking them into the Empress's stomach.
"Su Bao, hand!" Granny Bai looked at little Su Bao.
The little dumpling was taken aback, but instinctively reached out its little hand.
The old woman was incredibly fast; in an instant, a golden needle pierced the little girl's fingertip.
"Don't be afraid!" Granny Bai whispered.
Little Su Bao nodded. She didn't sense any malice from Granny Bai, so she wasn't afraid.
Immediately afterwards, a bright red bead of blood was squeezed out by the old woman.
The old woman stained the gold needles with blood.
The next moment, Granny Bai gently pressed down on Xiao Su Bao's finger, and the bloodstains disappeared instantly, even the wound disappeared.
Little Su Bao looked at her fingers, then at Granny Bai, but didn't utter a single word from beginning to end.
Her eyes held curiosity and confusion.
The next instant, she saw Granny Bai plunge those gold needles, stained with her own blood, back into the Empress's stomach.
Little Su Bao's eyes flickered subconsciously, and she saw that the black aura on her grandmother's stomach was spreading rapidly outward along the silver needle.
Just then, a small golden gourd hanging above the bed suddenly started moving without any wind.
One strand, two strands... gradually forming a small stream.
Black energy condensed and then was absorbed into the small gourd.
Little Su Bao was amazed, and her eyes brightened.
Granny Bai seemed to sense something, and she placed her hand on the Empress's pregnant area.
He took a deep breath and then pressed down with a little force.
"Hiss..." The Empress frowned slightly and gasped.
"If Madam is feeling unwell, bite on this!" Upon seeing this, Wang Mingtian placed a piece of peach wood near the Empress's lips.
"No...it's alright!" She wasn't the kind of woman who was pretentious.
The empress back then was a female demon!
But the pain in my lower abdomen was a piercing pain, even more painful than scraping the bone to heal the wound.
The Empress clenched her fists, and fine beads of sweat had already appeared on her forehead.
Her chest heaved violently.
Suddenly, a small hand grasped the Queen's hand.
The little hands were slightly cool, not very soft or smooth, and you could even feel calluses on them.
The Empress looked down and saw a pretty little face.
"Grandma, don't be afraid, it will be over in a moment!" Her voice was soft and sweet, as if it could soothe people's hearts.
The Empress, afraid of frightening the little girl, tried her best to force a smile.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty..." Before she could finish speaking, her eyes suddenly widened, and she trembled with pain all over her body.
Little Su Bao gripped the Empress's hand tightly, seemingly sensing something as well.
At that moment, the young nun who was resting with her eyes closed in the carriage suddenly opened them.
"Mother!" Chang'an shouted, his forehead covered in sweat.
She dreamt that her mother was in great pain!
The little girl, who hadn't cried the whole way, suddenly started to shed tears.
Xiao Hua was extremely anxious. She knew her princess well; she wouldn't cry unless she was really upset.
"Princess, please don't cry. If you cry, I'll cry too. Waaah, don't cry, it's alright. Didn't you say that whether you're happy or unhappy, it's still just one day? You..."
Xiaohua wiped away her tears while comforting Chang'an.
Lan Xin'er, who was standing to the side, raised her eyes and glanced at the two of them, feeling secretly pleased.
Serves them right for letting this damned Chang'an look down on them and bully them.
Now that they're all prisoners, who's more noble than whom? And seeing Chang'an being pulled down from his high position, she felt a strange excitement.
Lan Xin'er's gaze was so intense that even Chang'an couldn't ignore it.
Chang'an stopped crying, and looked at Lan Xin'er with a hint of coldness in her eyes.
Lan Xin'er immediately looked away, no longer daring to look at Chang'an.
"Alright, stop crying!" the old monk shouted into the carriage.
Xiao Hua immediately stopped crying. She looked at her princess and then glanced at Lan Xin'er.
“Princess…” Xiao Hua knew that the princess was a person of strong will, and now that the princess was crying, she must be feeling very sad.
"I'm fine, I just had a dream!"
Lan Xin'er couldn't help but prick up her ears to listen, but Chang'an only said one sentence and then stopped.
She was furious, but she had no way to ask.
After a pause, Chang'an closed her eyes and slowly turned the prayer beads she had asked the old nun for.
She whispered the Prajnaparamita Sutra, praying for her mother.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Hua obediently began reciting scriptures as well.
Because Chang'an often caused trouble, he had to copy a lot of scriptures every month, which was not difficult for the two of them.
"This girl really does look like a little nun!" the old nun muttered from outside.
The carriage sped away, its destination unknown.
At that moment, it was noon, and the sun was shining brightly outside.
In Tangjia Village, everyone knelt devoutly under the sun.
Even the emperor stood in the scorching sun, his face turning red from the heat.
Bai Yinjun appeared out of nowhere. He saw the emperor's swaying body and rushed over in a few steps.
"You're too old, so don't stand here!" the young man said, half-pulling and half-dragging the emperor to the eaves of the Tang family's house.
Then they brought over a large bowl of mung bean water from the kitchen.
Regardless of whether the emperor wanted it or not, they forced him to drink it.
emperor……
This brat is actually pretty good when he doesn't make me angry!
As long as he's ready by then, it wouldn't be a bad idea to give him the title of martial arts champion!
However, the premise is that the Empress must be well!
"Please sit down, I'll go get water for the others!"
After Bai Yinjun finished speaking, he turned and left to continue delivering water to the villagers.
The emperor looked at Bai Yinjun and the village children with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
The children in Tangjia Village are all good.
Their families don't allow them to kneel, worried that their bodies can't handle it.
The children then cooked mung bean soup and delivered it to the villagers.
Inside the palace, the crown prince had already woken up, though his eyes were still somewhat unfocused.
He had a dream; he dreamt of his mother and father!
Mother looked like she was in a lot of pain.
The crown prince became agitated. He thought of something and decided to go to the Imperial Ancestral Temple again.
He knelt on the prayer mat, praying for the Empress.
Meanwhile, the third prince rushed to the Emperor and Empress's bedroom, demanding to see his parents. When the eunuchs wouldn't let him in, he knelt outside.
At that moment, inside the Imperial Observatory, Zhou Zhenghai suddenly opened his eyes and looked up at the sun.
I don't know what I'm thinking about writing.
He made a hand seal, then suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"How could this be!"
He opened his eyes, a look of surprise in them.
However, immediately afterward, he sat cross-legged and began to silently recite Taoist scriptures.
In Tangjia Village, the Empress lay on her bed. For some reason, the area that had been in excruciating pain suddenly felt a warmth, followed by a strange sense of relief.
She raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Su Bao and Wang Mingtian.
Sweat dampened her forehead, and Xiao Su Bao carefully helped the Empress wipe the sweat from her face.
"It's alright, Grandmother. I'll sing you a song; my mother taught me..."
Little Su Bao sang that unknown tune softly.
The empress was taken aback and looked up at the little girl.
"How do you know this tune?" The Empress was so distracted that she no longer felt much pain in her body.
Little Su Bao was taken aback, then said, "It was Su Bao's mother who sang it when she was putting Su Bao to sleep!"
“Isn’t your mother Lan Shuyu? How could she have heard this piece of music? This is…”
The Empress paused, a strange look in her eyes.
This tune was hummed occasionally by that mysterious man after he saved the Empress and the Emperor.
She remembers it very clearly.
But that person should be over a hundred years old by now!
Moreover, that mysterious person has been living in seclusion deep in the mountains and forests!
But that mysterious man said he composed the piece himself.
Thinking of this, the Empress frowned even more, seemingly lost in thought.
Bai Pozi ignored the Empress's thoughts, took a deep breath, and took out a jade pendant from her bosom.
The jade pendant was carved with a green dragon. Then, Granny Bai pressed the jade pendant down and muttered some obscure and difficult words.
Little Su Bao seemed to sense something, and she subconsciously looked up.
He began to mutter along with Granny Bai.
Just then, Wang Mingtian took out a pill from his pocket.
"Madam, please place the pill under your tongue!"
The empress opened her mouth, and as soon as the pill entered her mouth, a cool sensation filled her body.
The pain in my lower abdomen seemed to have lessened considerably.
Suddenly, the Empress's pupils dilated slightly, and she felt something flowing out between her legs.
Before she could look any further, Wang Mingtian had already left the house and was standing outside.
When the emperor saw Wang Mingtian come out, he immediately stood up nervously.
"How is my wife?" At this moment, the emperor didn't seem like an emperor, but rather like a man who doted on his wife.
Wang Mingtian bowed slightly to the emperor, not because of his status, but because it was truly admirable that the emperor could treat his wife so respectfully despite his position.
“Master Huang, there’s no need to worry. Your wife is a lucky person and will be blessed by heaven!” Wang Mingtian looked into the room, his eyes gleaming.
His little apprentice is indeed extraordinary!
He sighed, feeling somewhat puzzled.
She is completely open and honest with the people she likes, and she can also absorb other people's bad luck onto herself.
However, if this continues, she might run into problems.
Wang Mingtian rubbed his temples, feeling both heartache and helplessness.
"Father!" At this moment, a young man flew in using his lightness skill.
It was the Second Prince, whom I hadn't seen for several days.
The second prince has become darker and thinner, but he looks much more muscular.
Upon seeing his second son, the emperor couldn't help but ask, "How is the matter in Lan County?"
"It's almost done, Father, don't worry. Don't you trust your son's abilities?"
The second prince looked around but didn't see his mother, and couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Father, where is my mother?"
He looked around anxiously.
“It’s you I’m worried about. You’re always so impulsive… Never mind, Fulin is over there too, he’s a reliable person.” After the emperor finished speaking, he saw that his son was still looking at him, and his lips twitched.
"Your mother is inside the house..." the emperor said, looking at his son.
"I'll go take a look!" Before the emperor could finish speaking, the second prince lifted his robes and was about to rush in.
"What's your rush? Your mother's illness... isn't cured yet. If I could go in, would I still be outside?" The emperor grabbed his son's arm, his gaze fixed on the doorway.
