Chapter 240 She Believes No One
Following the shout, a palace maid and an old woman rushed into the inner hall.
Yun Qin immediately stepped forward to stop the man, "Who allowed you to come in!"
"I am an old maid. It seems that the beauty is about to give birth prematurely. Your Majesty, please let me in!" The maid looked at Beauty Shen on the bed anxiously.
Yun Qin still stopped her from coming in, "I have already asked someone to invite Doctor Zhang Yu, let's talk after he comes!"
She didn't trust anyone now. She had only one thought in her mind: she must not let anyone get close to Shen Yanxin.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing? The beauty is about to give birth, why are you holding this old slave back? If you delay any longer, something bad will happen to your Majesty and the prince!"
The old woman was so anxious that her voice rose an octave, but because of Yun Qin's identity, she did not dare to force her way in.
The maidservant beside the old lady also said, "Why is the queen trying to stop the old lady? What is her intention?"
"I've said that we'll have to wait until Doctor Zhang Yu arrives before we discuss anything else!" Yun Qin repeated it with a stronger tone.
The commotion here startled Xiangtan, who was looking after Lady Shen. She looked over and said to Yunqin, "This Nanny Li is the maid specially prepared by the Emperor for the beauty. Your Majesty, please let her come and see the beauty!"
Yun Qin remained indifferent. So what if it was the emperor's arrangement? Wasn't Concubine Liu arranged by the emperor in the first place?
But in the end, he still died!
"What on earth are you doing here, Your Majesty? If anything happens to the beauty and the prince, can you afford the responsibility?" The palace maid beside the old lady shouted again.
Xiangtan could no longer sit still, so she stood up and walked over, "Madam, please move aside. The master trusts Madam Li very much, and she will not do anything bad to the master."
She didn't doubt Yun Qin yet. After all, if she hadn't stabilized the situation just now, her master would not have been able to return to Changfu Palace so safely.
"If you trust me, shut up!" Yun Qin turned her head and looked at Xiang Tan, "You and I are the only two people in this palace who will not harm Shen Yanxin. No one else can be trusted. Do you want to do what those people want and let your master be ruined by these dirty people?"
Xiangtan naturally didn't want to do that, but looking at her master who was crying non-stop on the bed, she was still very hesitant.
"I think the one with ulterior motives is you, Concubine Xi. This is Changfu Palace, not your Yanning Palace. What right do you have to issue orders? I think you just want to kill Concubine Shen..."
Before she could finish, Yun Qin slapped her in the face. The loud "slap" sound made the whole hall quiet.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you criticize me!" Yun Qin's eyes were cold, and her already gorgeous appearance became even more arrogant.
"If you really care about your beauty, you should go and boil some water instead of arguing with me here. I also want to ask you, what on earth did you want to do by bringing Li Momo here in such a hurry?"
The palace maid turned her head and looked at Yun Qin with a hint of resentment in her eyes.
"I think you are angry because I said it right!"
But her words finally moved Xiangtan. She toughened her attitude and said to Yunqin, "Empress Xi, please move aside and let Wenpo in!"
Yun Qin did not turn around to look at her, but stared at the palace maid. As expected, when she heard Xiang Tan say this, a hint of pride appeared in her eyes.
This was the purpose of this palace maid, to put her at odds with the palace maids in Changbokgung Palace so that they would not trust her and drive her away.
As for what you want to do, it goes without saying.
Yun Qin would not give in, she said coldly: "Unless you step over me today, don't even think about getting close to Lady Shen!"
But she also understood that she might not be able to hold on for long.
I couldn't help but feel anxious. Why hasn't Doctor Zhang Yu come yet?
Just as I was thinking about it, Rong Xin finally ran in with Doctor Zhang Yu.
Seeing Doctor Zhang Yu, Rong Xin felt relieved. She immediately stepped aside and said to Doctor Zhang Yu, "Go and see Lady Shen. You must save her no matter what!"
Doctor Zhang Yu didn't have time to say anything. He just nodded and walked in quickly.
Yun Qin still stayed here and did not follow Doctor Zhang Yu in. She glanced at the people in the hall and shouted, "Why don't you prepare hot water and other things!"
Only then did these people start to move.
Nanny Li was still looking inside with a worried look on her face, but the palace maid beside her lowered her head and followed the crowd, quickly retreating outside.
Yun Qin pointed at her and said to Rong Xin, "Let General Shen catch her!"
"yes!"
Rong Xin walked out quickly, came back quickly, and nodded to Yun Qin.
Yun Qin breathed a sigh of relief and said to her, "You stay here and no one is allowed to come in. If someone brings water, you take it."
"I understand." Rong Xinzheng nodded heavily to reassure her.
Yun Qin then went inside. Doctor Zhang Yu was giving acupuncture to Lady Shen. When he saw Yun Qin come in, he knew what she was going to ask.
"The situation is not particularly bad. I can still feel the baby's pulse. But the beauty is bleeding a lot and may not be able to give birth. She needs ginseng soup to replenish her energy!"
"The ginseng soup is already prepared. I will ask someone to get it."
Yun Qin looked at Xiang Tan and said, "Go there yourself!"
Xiangtan was still hesitating, and Yunqin said impatiently: "If I really want to return your beauty, can your beauty still hold on until now? Hurry up and go!"
Yun Qin now looked like an angry lion, sharp and ferocious, with a hint of madness, and her eyes were truly frightening.
"I'll go right away." Xiangtan then hurried away.
The woman's delivery was not so quick. After Xiangtan brought the ginseng soup and Zhang Yu prescribed drugs to induce labor, she finally started to deliver the baby.
Yun Qin was unable to help at all and could only retreat and sit on the soft couch outside, with Lady Shen's voice filling her ears.
When Huo Jinchi walked in, he saw Yun Qin with a dazed look in her eyes.
Her body and hands were covered in blood, her face was frighteningly pale, and she was sitting there, shaking all over.
Seeing this look, Huo Jinchi felt heartbroken. He walked to her side and held Yun Qin's trembling hand. She seemed to have not come back to her senses yet. Her eyes were full of vigilance when she looked at him. After a reaction, she seemed to recognize who it was.
But she still quickly pulled her hand away from his.
She was tense all over at this moment, and everything she did was subconscious.
Hawking Chi obviously didn't expect this. Looking at his empty hands, his heart felt even more empty.
Along the way, I had heard that she was stopping everyone and not allowing anyone to enter the inner hall.
He knew that this was because Yunqin didn't trust anyone.
And he seemed to be within the range of her distrust, otherwise she would not have shown subconscious vigilance towards him.
After he had completely calmed down, Yun Qin realized what he had just done. Seeing Huo Jinchi staring at his hand, he immediately raised his hand and held his hand.
"Your Majesty, you are finally here. I was so scared just now!" Yun Qin pouted, looking frightened.
Huo Jinchi lowered his eyes and looked at her face. He knew that she was pretending, but he couldn't shake off her hand. At least, her fear was not fake.
Holding his hand, still trembling slightly.
"Your Majesty, please go and see Concubine Shen." Yun Qin saw that he was still looking at their clasped hands and quickly changed the subject.
She knew that Huo Jinchi was not a man who followed rules. He had not avoided Su Yiyan's childbirth, so he would not avoid Shen Yanxin's childbirth either.
Huo Jinchi nodded but didn't rush in. "I'm here now. I'll be watching over you. You can rest assured."
"Now that the emperor is here, I feel relieved." Yun Qin said with a smile.
Huo Jinchi's eyes flashed, but he nodded and went to see Lady Shen first.
Looking at his back, Yun Qin's eyes dimmed and her body felt a little weak. She held on to the short man beside her, only then did she realize that her whole body was shaking.
