That day, Wen Mianmian was having lunch in the bamboo courtyard when someone suddenly came to report that something had happened in the mansion.
It seems that the concubine is about to give birth, and something has happened to Li Gege.
The Fourth Master has already returned directly to his residence.
The manager of their farm also prepared a carriage for the princess and her friends to return home.
Since the concubine was about to give birth, they naturally had to go back.
"What's going on? Didn't Fu Jin say her due date is still a month away?"
Yesterday the master went back and said nothing was wrong, how come this happened today?
"Why is she going to give birth at this time?" Wen Mianmian asked the eunuch who came to report.
"I don't know either." The young eunuch lowered his head.
Seeing that she couldn't get anything out of him, Wen Mianmian dismissed the person.
Then he looked at Shancha and the others and said, "Hurry up and pack up, we will be returning home soon."
"Yes, I'll go right away." Shancha Shannai immediately retreated to pack up his things.
After packing up his things, he took a carriage back to the mansion.
Wen Mianmian and the others returned to the mansion and went straight to the main courtyard.
As soon as I arrived at the main courtyard, I heard the screams of the concubine from inside. I could tell from the sound how much pain she was in.
The Fourth Master was not in the main courtyard at that time, and only after asking did he find out that he was with Li Gege.
And I heard that Li Gege's baby might not survive.
After all, Li Gege's baby was only six months old, not even seven months.
When Nanny Chang saw them, she came over immediately and said, "Gege and the girls should go back and rest first. Fu Jin will be here for quite some time."
No one wanted to stay here to watch the concubine give birth, so after hearing what Nanny Chang said, they didn't stay here any longer.
"Okay, let's go back and pack up first and come to see Fu Jin tomorrow." After saying this, Song Gege left with everyone.
After sending them away, Nanny Chang went in to help.

Purple Bamboo Courtyard
As soon as Wen Mianmian came back, she asked Wang An what had happened in the mansion.
Then Wang An told Wen Mianmian everything that had happened in the mansion.
The thing is, this morning someone suddenly came to Li Gege's place to report to the concubine that Li Gege suddenly had a stomachache and was also spotting.
Fu Jin was startled and immediately took Nanny Chang's hand and went to Yuxiayuan.
When they arrived at Yuxiayuan, they saw that it was in a mess. Fu Jin went in to take a look at Li, but at that moment she did not notice the teacup under her feet, and she slipped and fell to the ground.
The teacup was accidentally knocked over by a servant, and before he could clean it up, the lady-in-waiting walked in.
Fortunately, I stepped on it by chance.
The fall was a serious one for Fu Jin. Her stomach immediately started to hurt and she even had a spot.
Nanny Chang and others had no time to pay attention to Li, and quickly helped the concubine back to the main courtyard.
Then came the scene that Gege and the others were seeing now.
Fortunately, the midwife was brought into the mansion a few days ago, for fear of any accidents that might cause the concubine to give birth prematurely.
Otherwise, it would be too late to find a midwife at this time.
Wen Mianmian knew the general situation and felt that this matter might not be that simple.
For example, why did Mrs. Li suddenly have a stomachache for no reason?
And how come Fu Jin happened to step on the teacup and slip? Was it really just an accident?
For some reason, Wen Mianmian suddenly felt a little creepy.
"So how's it going with Li Gege?"
Wang An shook his head. "We don't know yet. I heard she had spotting, so the baby might be in jeopardy."
After all, Li's fetus was unstable to begin with, and both the court physician and the imperial physician had said that she needed to stay in bed and rest for the next few months.
If you suddenly see blood now, the child will definitely be in danger.
Sure enough, the imperial physician on Li's side took Li Gege's pulse and shook his head solemnly.
He walked up to the Fourth Master, knelt down, and said solemnly, "My Lord, the princess took safflower during her pregnancy, and the baby was unstable, which caused her unbearable abdominal pain. Now the baby has died in her womb."
"Furthermore, I discovered a small amount of safflower in the bird's nest porridge that Li Gege used for breakfast."
You should know that safflower has the effect of promoting blood circulation. Pregnant women should not touch this thing. If a normal pregnant woman takes such a small dose, she may be able to save the fetus.
But Li Gege had already had a miscarriage and the fetus was unstable. Now taking this would undoubtedly make the situation worse. How could she possibly save the fetus?
The Fourth Master clenched his hands, already guessing the outcome.
But he still held out a glimmer of hope, but he didn't expect the result to be the same.
It would be a lie to say that he wasn't sad, but the result was already like this and he could only accept it.
"Su Peisheng, check for me. I want to find out who wants to harm my child." After hearing this, the Fourth Master slammed the table in anger. He was furious and gave the order in a stern voice.
"Yes, I'll go right away."
Su Peisheng was also frightened by the Fourth Master's angry look, and he immediately went out after responding.
With the help of a female doctor and a midwife asked from the wife, Li gave birth to a male fetus that was already formed but not fully developed.
"Is it a boy or a girl?" Li asked weakly, suppressing her tears.
"Princess, it's a boy." Nanny Fang couldn't help but say it out loud.
After hearing this, Li's eyes were filled with tears of sorrow, her forehead was covered in sweat, and her face was almost distorted with pain. When she saw the midwife pick up the child, she wanted to take him out.
Li suppressed the grief in her heart and said, "Let me see."
"Princess, you'd better not look at it, so as not to make you sad." The midwife replied with an embarrassed look on her face.
"I said, bring the baby here." Li glared at the midwife fiercely and said coldly with red eyes.
Seeing this, the midwife brought the child to Li.
Li propped herself up and took a look, and the tears in her eyes fell uncontrollably again.
She was filled with grief and cried out in a heartbreaking voice, "My child, my child."
Upon seeing this, Nanny Fang quickly waved her hand and asked the midwife to take the child out.
Nanny Fang came over and hugged Li, and gently persuaded her, "Don't be sad, Gege, you will have children in the future."
Nanny Fang was also very sad, because he was a little prince.
If this incident hadn't happened, we would have been able to land safely in a few months.
Who on earth is it, who on earth is so deliberate in trying to harm their princess?
Li nestled in Nanny Fang's arms and cried bitterly, then fainted.
After that, there was another round of chaos.
The Fourth Master also took a look at the child from outside, his heart filled with grief, and finally had the child taken away for a proper burial.
After all, this is his child.
Upon hearing that Li had fainted, the Fourth Master hurriedly called the imperial physician in to take a look.
After examining her, the imperial physician said that Princess Li was exhausted, and because her youngest prince had died in her womb, she fainted out of grief.
The imperial physician wrote down several prescriptions and told them to give them to Li Gege on time, and also told them to stay in confinement for two months.
After saying this, the imperial physician went to Fu Jin's side.
The Fourth Master went in and took a look at Li, then told everyone to take good care of her and left Yuxia Courtyard.
It was not until the evening that Wen Mianmian heard that Li had miscarried.
