Chapter 456 Production
The emperor was not in the courtyard, but Ming Lu and Ming He were guarding the gate. When they saw them coming, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
Doctor Sun felt uneasy and pulled Minglu aside to ask, "You were fine, why did you suddenly have an attack?"
This morning, Doctor Sun took Su Qingqing's pulse and found no signs of a seizure.
Minglu glanced at Minghe, and Minghe immediately looked guilty and annoyed. He lowered his head and bit his lips, as if he wanted to slap himself to death.
Doctor Sun looked at him, becoming increasingly puzzled. "What's going on?"
Minglu said: "This morning, after breakfast, Minghe came to the Queen to ask Jixiang for marriage."
Everyone knew about Minghe and Tongjixiang's affair. Doctor Sun didn't understand how a marriage proposal could provoke the Empress to such an outburst, and he waited for Minglu's next words.
Minglu gritted his teeth and said, "Just proposing a marriage wouldn't be a problem, of course. But he proposed a marriage and even asked the Queen if he and Jixiang should invite General Yu from the other courtyard to their wedding."
After saying that, Minglu kicked Minghe in the calf.
"Okay, why are you bringing this up?"
Minghe himself was extremely upset. If anything happened to the Queen this time, not only would His Majesty not punish him, he would have to deal with himself.
Doctor Sun looked at Minghe with a puzzled expression, "Yeah, why are you bringing this up? It's completely unrelated."
Minghe twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "I was so presumptuous that I ended up making things worse. Ever since General Yu was sent to the West Mountain Villa, His Majesty didn't mention it a word for fear of hurting the Empress, and the Empress just pretended he didn't exist and never asked about it. He has been kept in the West Mountain Villa ever since, but...
He's a special person after all, so I thought I'd take advantage of this to see what Her Majesty felt. I... I don't know. I just mentioned it, and Her Majesty suddenly got angry."
As they were talking, Su Heng, who had received the news, strode in from outside.
As soon as I walked in, I asked, "Where's my sister?"
Su Heng was anxious, and his eyes were red.
He already knew what Minghe had done. After asking a question, he kicked Minghe in the butt. Minghe didn't dare to say anything and felt uneasy.
After all, Doctor Sun came from Zhao State. Others did not dare to stop Su Heng, but he could not allow Su Heng to beat people here.
What's more, if Minghe hadn't provoked him today, he would have brought it up too. Moreover, if he had brought it up, no matter how careful he was, it would have been more provocative than Minghe's!
Ming and Zuo merely mentioned the name.
Doctor Sun stopped Su Heng and said, "Your Highness, calm down. Your Highness, calm down. Your Highness knows that the Empress has already passed her due date by twenty days. This is actually very dangerous.
Just now, Doctor Zhen and I were discussing whether we should use General Yu to stimulate the Empress to induce a fetal gas attack!
We were still discussing it, but Minghe brought it up unexpectedly. This is a good thing. Otherwise, if the Empress didn't conceive for a long time, she would have to take drugs to induce labor.
Your Highness also knows about the Queen's condition.
In the early years in Zhao State, although His Majesty and the Empress took good care of him, he was born prematurely and had experienced a shock.
Back then, Yu Yang's two daughters were taken away alive by criminals, which was a great shock to the two children.
Princess Su Qingqing of Zhao State had nightmares since she was a child, and it was not until she was eight or nine years old that her condition started to improve. She had been physically empty since she was a child. Although the soul of Su Qingqing, a female general of Dayan State, later fell into her body, her spirit had changed, but her body remained the same.
Her body was already weak, and she had to run around a lot after getting pregnant.
At that time, nothing could be diagnosed from the pulse, but when Su Qingqing's fetal labor did not occur, Doctor Sun slowly realized that something was wrong. By the time he considered using drugs to induce labor, it was already too late.
Su Qingqing usually feels strong, but she is actually weak inside. She cannot withstand the torment of labor-inducing drugs, and if she is not careful, she may bleed heavily.
Both Rong Que and Su Heng knew this.
Doctor Sun's words didn't ease Minghe's remorse, but they did calm Su Heng down a bit. "Where's your Majesty?"
Minglu immediately said, "His Majesty is guarding the Empress inside."
Su Heng's expression eased slightly after hearing this.
Rong Que is inside, which means there is no danger at the moment.
He understood the truth, but his heart was not at ease. Su Heng paced back and forth with his fists clenched.
In the house.
The pain caused by childbirth made Su Qingqing's face pale, and her forehead and cheeks were covered with sweat.
Although Aunt Xu was still not feeling well, she was conscious and could not help with anything else. However, she was carried in and placed in the inner room, watching the midwife deliver the baby.
Chunjiao is quite knowledgeable in medicine and good at using medicine. She was brought into the palace by Su Qingqing early in the morning to prepare for the delivery.
But she doesn't know how to deliver a baby.
He could only check Su Qingqing's pulse from time to time to determine her current physical condition. In addition, he prepared lozenges with several Chinese medicinal herbs, pressed them under Su Qingqing's tongue, and asked her to hold them in her mouth to prevent her from losing energy due to excessive pain.
Rong Que sat beside Su Qingqing's bed, holding Su Qingqing's hand, his eyes red and unable to say a word.
If possible, he would be willing to bear the pain for Su Qingqing, but it was a pity that he could do nothing now.
The midwife who delivered the baby did not do anything bad. The Queen Mother's party had been completely eliminated. At this time, even if she was still the Queen Mother's person, there was no reason for her to do anything bad.
The Empress Dowager was demoted to a commoner and executed in the street. What was she trying to achieve by doing such evil?
Wouldn’t it be better to hold on to the queen’s thighs tightly!
The two midwives tried their best to help, but the fetus in Su Qingqing's belly refused to come out.
Jixiang and Xiaorui were standing nearby, almost going crazy with anxiety.
This has been going on for half an hour, and the child hasn't come out. Her master alone is in so much pain that both of them can't bear it.
Jixiang had never been so scared before. Her legs were so weak that she could not even stand. She had heard too many stories about women who died while giving birth. Now seeing Su Qingqing like this, she was worried about her safety and hesitated whether her decision was right.
Before, she was determined not to get married.
But Minghe is a person who usually keeps quiet, but he can do things that touch people's hearts and warm their hearts.
Can……
If she really gets together with Minghe, one day she will have to go through everything that her master is going through now. Jixiang asked herself if she had Su Qingqing's body or perseverance.
Su Qingqing couldn't bear the pain...
Jixiang shuddered and shrank his neck, feeling that it would be better for him not to get married.
Minghe, who was waiting outside, had no idea what he had lost and was still anxious.
Su Heng walked around in circles, "What's going on in here? Why is there no sound at all? Could it be that Rong Que is..."
In a hurry, Su Heng called Rong Que by his full name.
Ming and Minglu didn't react at all. Instead, Doctor Sun pulled Su Heng aside to stop him from saying such thoughtless words.
"It's okay, it's okay. No movement is good news. Just wait a little longer. Giving birth is not that easy. Some people give birth from morning till night!"
