Return of Jin Yi

Chapter 68 Protecting Her Until Death

Peony Court.

As soon as Chu Ci entered the courtyard, Princess Nanjun and a strange woman greeted her.

Princess Nanjun tightly held Grandma Lian's hand. Before she could say anything, she just made a mouth shape when Chu Ci waved her hand to stop her.

She looked at the two of them and said directly, "I already know the situation. It's an emergency. We're going to set off right away. Grandma Lian will be the one to lead the way!"

Seeing that Chu Ci was so agile, even the eldest grandma stopped talking, nodded with tears in her eyes, and led Chu Ci to go out.

Nanjun Wangfei was worried and followed.

Half an hour later, three carriages rushed to Lianfu.

When Chu Ci got out of the car, his face was already pale due to the bumps, and he was walking like a float.

King Lu Xiaojun supported her, feeling extremely distressed.

Nanjun Wangfei also looked worried, looked at her, and asked anxiously, "A Ci, are you okay, can you hold on?"

Chu Ci shook his head, resisting the discomfort in his body, and said, "I'm fine. Human life is at stake, and saving people is the most important thing!"

"Then there is Concubine Lao, please go this way!" Grandma Lian pointed the way for Chu Ci with tears in her eyes.

Chu Ci nodded and was about to take a step, but the next moment his body lightened...

"I'll carry you there!" King Lu Xiaojun whispered close to her ear.

Chu Ci nodded, and while motioning him to follow Grandma Lian to go forward, he untied his purse, took a birth-preserving pill from it, and put it in his mouth.

She will have to use more strength later, she must hold on.

Think of it... as accumulating virtue for the child in your womb!
A group of people walked very fast, and it usually took two quarters of an hour to travel, but they only took half a quarter of an hour to get there.

"The delivery room is in front!" Grandma Lian said after entering the yard of Young Master Sun and Grandma Sun of the Lian family, pointing to a wing room in front.

Chu Ci heard the words and looked around, only to see that many people were already guarding outside the delivery room.

One of the women in a ginger-yellow horse-face skirt couldn't help crying and fell on the shoulder of the middle-aged man beside her. The middle-aged man was tense and looked very anxious.

Grandma Lian noticed her gaze, raised her veil to wipe the corners of her eyes, and said in a low voice, "These are the master and wife of the in-laws, and they only have one daughter, Difang."

Chu Ci nodded, expressing his understanding.

King Lu Xiaojun carried her all the way to the porch before letting her go.

As soon as she stood firmly on her forefoot, the Zhang family couple came over, hurriedly saluted Princess Nanjun, looked at her again, and asked with burning eyes, "This is the princess, right?"

Chu Ci nodded at the two of them, "I am." After a pause, his face became serious again, and he asked, "How is the mother's situation now?"

Madam Zhang's eyes were red, and she said in a hoarse voice, "Diefang... She entered the delivery room at dusk yesterday, and it has been a day and a night now. At the beginning, she still had the strength to scream, but now, she has the strength to open her eyes." It's all gone..." He said, crying again.

Chu Ci was annoyed by her crying, didn't say anything else, just took the medicine box from King Lu Xiaojun, and said, "I'll go in and have a look first."

Mrs. Lian was moved, said "please", and accompanied her to the delivery room.

After entering the delivery room, Chu Ci felt a burst of heat coming over his face.

Then, before she could catch her breath, she saw a man striding towards her, knelt down in front of her with a plop, and cried, "Missing the child, please save my wife... Please, As long as you can save her, I will be your cow and horse in this life and the next..."

Chu Ci glanced at him coldly, "If you really want to save your wife's life, don't get in the way!"

Hearing what she said, the man was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly pushed away, stood up and said, "Thank you, Empress, please, please!"

Chu Ci pursed his lips, and walked directly towards the woman on the bed with her eyes closed.

After sitting by the bed, she first helped her feel her pulse, and then asked the two midwives next to her about their children.

The midwives are two of the best skilled in Jinling City, and they have heard about Chu Ci. After hearing her question, she immediately said honestly, "The child has been holding back for too long. If the parturient does not wake up within half an hour, it will be a dead body." A matter of two lives."

Hearing this, Chu Ci nodded, "Half an hour is enough!"

As he spoke, he took out the gold needle from the medicine box and injected three needles into the mother's chest.

After the injection, within the time of a cup of tea, the mother raised her eyelids and woke up.

She looked at the ceiling blankly, and it took a long time before she noticed Chu Ci beside the bed, "You...are you a doctor?" She asked with difficulty.

Chu Ci nodded at her, "Yes, I am a doctor."

At the end of the sentence, seeing sadness on her face, she added, "Don't worry, with me here, I will keep both of you mother and daughter safe!"

Hearing what she said, Zhang Diefang shook her head weakly, "Doctor, don't comfort me, I know my body... I'm afraid I won't be able to get through this test, I just beg, you must Keep my child... Even if you cut my stomach open with a knife, you must keep my child, just as I beg..."

"No!" Before she finished speaking, the young master of the Lian family who had begged for Chuci just now rushed forward, knelt down in front of the bed, held her pale hand tightly, and said in a crying voice, "My lady, I I just want you to live, I don’t care about children or not... If I had known that giving birth to a woman would be fatal, I would never have let you conceive a child! Wife, I can’t live without you... I just want to be with you forever Twilight, we will never be separated for the rest of our lives..."

"No, Xianggong, child, I want the child to live..."

Chu Ci watched the scene of the couple's deep love. After a long time, he sighed silently and said, "I said, the child and the adults can be kept...Can you two respect me as a doctor?"

Hearing what Chu Ci said, the two looked at her with disbelief in their eyes.

Chu Ci didn't explain anything, she looked directly at Grandma Lian, "Please take Young Master Sun out, and cook a bowl of ginseng soup for me!"

"Okay, okay, I'll take him out now!" Grandma Lian said, regardless of Lian Zongtong's consent, she dragged him and walked out.

After Lian Zong was taken out, Chu Ci looked at Zhang Diefang again, and asked solemnly, "Do you want to survive with your child?"

Zhang Diefang was silent for a moment, and said firmly, "I want to!"

Chu Ci nodded, then opened the medical box again, took out the bottle of Bigu Dan from it, poured out ten pills from it, handed it to her, and said, "Eat them all!"

Zhang Diefang looked at the handful of pills, doubts appeared on his pale face, "What... is this?"

"Things that can save your life!" Chu Ci said, and sent it to her mouth.

But Zhang Diefang endured the pain and ate all the bigu pills one by one.

After eating, she felt that her strength was recovering at the fastest speed.

"Is it okay now?" Two quarters of an hour later, she raised her head and asked while helping her with the midwifery massage.

Zhang Diefang nodded, "It's ok!"

"Okay!" Chu Ci said, the two midwives who wanted to stand aside with their hands tied gave a wink.

The two midwives understood and immediately stepped forward, ready to deliver the baby.

"Mrs. Sun, you can start to exert yourself..." the midwife shouted from the end of the bed.

Hearing this, Zhang Diefang began to work hard according to Chu Ci's order...

Once, she could feel the baby being squeezed in the birth canal.The severe pain struck again, and she cried out heart-piercingly.

Outside the delivery room, Zhang's couple heard their daughter's screams. It was rare that they didn't feel distressed, but they laughed with tears.

While nodding, she looked at Grandma Lian and said, "The princess concubine of this county palace is indeed a formidable one... She has only been here for a while, and Diefang has gained strength..."

Grandma Lian nodded with a smile on her face.But her heart was full of anxiety. In the delivery room just now, Lian Zong might not have noticed, but she heard Chu Ci blurt out the phrase "mother and daughter are safe".

There is a big difference between this grandson and granddaughter.

But no one knew what was going on in her heart.

In the delivery room, Zhang Diefang worked hard for almost [-] minutes, but the baby still didn't come out.

The two midwives were sweating profusely, and kept urging, "Mrs. Sun Shao, use your strength..."

But Zhang Diefang had exhausted all her strength, and she went limp again.

In desperation, the two midwives had no choice but to look at Chu Ci and said, "Concubine Shizi, the young lady's birth canal is too narrow, if this stalemate continues, it will not tear the birth canal, but suffocate the child..."

Chu Ci also considered this situation on the way here, and now he heard what the midwife said, and said decisively, "Cut the birth canal, save the child first, and then save the adults!"

The two midwives got the order, and they took the scissors aside and started to use them.

Seeing their actions, Chu Ci frowned fiercely—if they don't disinfect like this, they will die if it gets serious!

She hastily stopped those two, then opened her medical box, took out a sharp blade from inside, cleaned it with spirits, and walked towards the end of the bed, preparing to deliver Zhang Diefang herself...

A quarter of an hour later, a maternal scream sounded.

Not long after, another baby cry sounded...

Outside, Grandma Lian and Mrs. Zhang's inquiries came in immediately, "How is it? Is it a man or a woman? How is Diefang?"

Chu Ci also had to deal with the wounds on the lower body of the parturient, so he directly winked at the two midwives.The midwife carried the baby and walked outside...

As for Chu Ci, first he sewed up Zhang Diefang's wound with sterilized gut, and then applied her with cooling pain medicine, and after confirming that there was no sign of bleeding, he told the maids in the room to take good care of their master, and then Wash your hands and walk outside.

Outside, as soon as she went out, the Zhang family couple and Lian Zong knelt down. The three of them all looked at her with red eyes and said a lot of gratitude.

Chu Ci forced a smile, raised his hand to catch the arm stretched out by King Lu Xiaojun, stabilized his figure, and then said, "You are welcome, delivery is 1 taels, and the soup and medicine prescription for follow-up recovery is 1." Two...for mother's sake, I'll charge you 1 taels."

"This... this is all as it should be, it's all as it should be!"

Although the Zhang family didn't expect Chuci to talk about money directly, they didn't mean to be disgusted. After all, they saved their daughter and granddaughter's lives.

Immediately stood up and replied, "Afterwards, we will send the consultation fee to the county prince's mansion!"

Chu Ci said "hmm", "If there is nothing else, I will go back first... As for the follow-up soup and medicine prescriptions, I will ask my servants to send them over!"

"Okay, okay, princess, go slowly, concubine, go slowly!" The Zhang family couple said with a smile on their faces.

Chu Ci nodded, followed, and bid farewell to Grandma Lian before leaving with Princess Nanjun and King Lu Xiaojun.

And King Lu Xiaojun, still the same as when he came here, didn't ask any questions. Seeing her reluctant expression, he didn't ask any questions, so he hugged her up...

The carriage going back was moving very slowly.

Chu Ci leaned on Lu Xiaojun King's shoulder, closed his eyes and meditated.

King Lu Xiaojun held her tightly with one hand, and gently patted her tender white catkins with the other.

He knew she was tired.

But next time, he couldn't stop her.

Because curing diseases and saving lives is her favorite thing to do, and it is also her belief.

……

I don't know how long time passed, just when Lu Xiaojun Wang was also a little confused.

The speed of the carriage suddenly accelerated a lot.

Lu Xiaojun Wang Weikou's eyelids immediately lifted, he looked at the car curtain that was slightly blown by the gust of wind, and couldn't help shouting, "Lin San!"

Lin San is the groom who is driving today.

Went outside and got no response.

King Lu Xiaojun's heart sank all of a sudden, he tried to lift the curtain at the side, but when he opened it, what he saw was a piece of blue-black iron sheet.

"Chu Xiaoci!" He lowered his head and called urgently in her ear.

Hearing this, Chu Ci suddenly raised his head, looked at his solemn expression, and asked, "...what's the matter, what happened?"

King Lu Xiaojun was afraid of scaring the snake, so he didn't speak, but he lifted the curtains on both sides of the carriage to show her.

Chu Ci was not an idiot, when he saw the two pieces of iron sheets, his face immediately became serious.

After a moment of silence, she looked towards the front curtain and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "We can only get out from there, and we must hurry!"

If you are slow, who knows what else will happen!
King Lu Xiaojun also meant the same thing, but when his eyes fell on Chu Ci's stomach, he hesitated again, "Son, I'm afraid I can't bear this height..."

Chu Ci didn't know this.

The hand she pressed on her lower abdomen was a little heavier. In her eyes, it was the most difficult choice.

"It's me who is useless!" King Lu Xiaojun's eyes suddenly turned red, he hammered heavily on his head, and roared in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "It's me who is useless, there is no use at all. I can't protect you, let alone the child, I'm incompetent..."

Chu Ci's cherry-colored lips were drawn into a line. Seeing his self-mutilation, her heart suddenly moved, and she grabbed his wrist.Looking at him seriously, he said seriously, "Can you drive?"

King Lu Xiaojun paused for a moment, then nodded, "Yes! When I was in Bailu Academy, my master taught..."

"That's good." Chu Ci nodded, then leaned closer to his ear, and whispered his plan.

King Lu Xiaojun finally heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this.Then, according to Chu Ci's instructions, he bowed his body and moved towards the car door step by step...

The moment he touched the door handle, he suddenly lifted the curtain, and at the same time lost his mind.

Mixin San, as its name suggests, will take effect immediately once it is received by the mouth and nose of a person, causing people to lose consciousness.

The gangster pretending to be Lin San outside was unprepared, and he was really fascinated.

Seeing this, King Lu Xiaojun stepped forward and kicked the gangster off, then grabbed the reins that were hanging in the air, and started driving by himself.

"How is it?" Chu Ci asked immediately, holding on to the side wall when he heard the sound of a heavy object falling.

King Lu Xiaojun didn't reply.

In the open space less than 50 meters ahead, he watched dozens of men in black approaching him step by step until they surrounded the entire carriage.

"Lu Yifeng?" After the car stopped, Chu Ci heard the voice suspiciously, and took a few steps forward.But when he opened the curtain of the car and saw the men in black, he suddenly fell silent again.

"Is there any more Mixin Powder?" Lu Xiaojun Wang turned his head, looked at Chu Ci's expression that suddenly turned cold, and asked in a dying struggle.

Chu Ci shook his head, "Not anymore."

King Lu Xiaojun's mouth twitched in despair, "Then the two of us... may make a pair of ghost ducks today."

Chu Ci pursed his lips, did not reply to his words, but directed at him, "Help me out of the car first!"

King Lu Xiaojun looked in disbelief, "Get out of the car?"

Chu Ci nodded, "Before you die, you always have to find out who died at the hands of you."

King Lu Xiaojun said nothing.

He turned around and jumped out of the car, then held Chu Ci's hand and pulled her down.

After Chu Ci got out of the car, he straightened his skirt, and then walked straight towards the leader in black.

20 meters, ten meters... When she was ten feet away, she stopped, looked at the black-clothed leader opposite, and said coldly, "If I'm not wrong, the one your master wants to kill—should be only me and my belly." children in the

The eyes of the man in black protruding from the black scarf were dull.

Chu Ci said again, "I can catch you with nothing, without hurting any of your brothers. But let him go! He must live!" As she spoke, she gave King Lu Xiaojun a cold and affectionate look.

When King Lu Xiaojun heard that Chu Ci had exchanged his own life for his, he immediately became angry, grabbed her arm, and said sharply, "Stupid woman, what are you talking about! What do you mean you should be arrested without a fight, I must live, I tell you You, I am your man, even if only one of us can live, it should be you..."

"Shut up!" Chu Ci looked at him bitterly, and slapped him with his backhand, "There is no room for you to speak here, just shut up!"

King Lu Xiaojun was beaten to the side by her, but his aura became even more aggressive. He looked at Chu Ci stubbornly, and said with a stiff neck, "I won't shut up! I won't shut up! I just won't You are allowed to sacrifice yourself to save me! Never allow it! I am your man...you are the morning light, I am the sunset, live in the morning, live in the morning, die in the evening! I will never live alone!"

Chu Ci: "..."

The fool!Is now the time to show your loyalty?

On the other side, the man in black seemed very afraid of the poison in Chu Ci's hands.

After thinking for a long time, I finally replied, "I can promise you, let him go, but you have to keep your word and catch him!"

"If I say something, I will keep my word!" Chu Ci turned to the man in black with a serious expression on his face, and said without hesitation.

The man in black nodded, then looked contemptuously at King Lu Xiaojun, "You can go!"

"I'm not leaving!" Lu Xiaojun yelled, speaking to the leader in black, but he was looking at Chu Ci.

Chu Ci had no intention of entangled with him any more, and asked directly, "If you don't leave, who will collect my body? Could it be that you want me to have no peace after death, to leave my corpse in the wilderness, and be gnawed to bits by wild beasts? If you don't leave, Who will investigate the real cause of my death, and who will avenge me!"

King Lu Xiaojun was questioned by him, and immediately became speechless, his eyes were scarlet, stared at her for a long time, and then said in a trembling voice, "Chu Xiaoci, what you said is right...but I still don't want to leave you alone! I don't want to leave you alone, I don't want to..." At the end, he was already roaring——

"I don't want to care about what's going on behind me, I just want to be by your side when you're alive and suffering!"

"Lu Yifeng..." Chu Ci murmured his name, tears streaming down his face in an instant.

"Have you discussed enough? Are you going to leave or not!" The black-clothed leader looked at the sky and felt that it had been delayed long enough, so he couldn't help but draw his knife and draw a bright light...

King Lu Xiaojun grabbed Chu Ci into his arms with all his strength, looked coldly at the man in black a few feet away, and said harshly, "Don't go, what's the trick, you bastards just let them come here! don't frown"

Hearing this, the leader in black smiled coldly.With a gesture, all the men in black immediately showed their daggers and sleeve arrows hidden under the cloak in unison, and approached the two of them...

When Chuci saw the Xiujian, he knew that the two of them were really done playing today.

This thing shoots from a distance, and all the other poison powders on her are useless at all.

It was also her fault that she was so eager to save others that she even forgot to bring the most basic self-defense purse when she was away from home!
King Lu Xiaojun felt Chu Ci's utter despair, he held her cold hand tightly, and said word by word, "Chu Xiaoci, I can't be a husband and wife in this life, I tired you to death, if there is another life, I will definitely compensate you A beautiful life, I will pay you a dozen children..."

Chu Ci's eyes became slightly moist, and she said "yes" silently, and the sound of the man in black firing his sleeve arrows at the same time.

Seeing the short arrow like a black cloud flying towards her lower abdomen, she closed her eyes in resignation, and apologized to the child in her belly.

The next moment, the arm was suddenly grabbed by King Lu Xiaojun.

He pulled her to dodge the short black arrows like raindrops desperately, and if he couldn't dodge, he used his body to block it.

Chu Ci could smell the bloody smell around him getting stronger and stronger.

She knew that these were the blood of King Lu Xiaojun...

Amid the gusts of wind, tears streamed down her face.

She really didn't expect that at this moment of death, this immature man would use his body and everything he had to protect her.

At this moment, she was really moved by him.

"Chu Xiaoci, don't cry, don't cry..." Lu Yifeng heard Chu Ci's faint sobs, hugged her tightly in his arms, and blocked a few short arrows for her with his back.

Then, he lowered his head, kissed the tears at the corners of her eyes lightly, and said with regret, "Don't cry, it's because I didn't protect you well..."
