Red makeup against the world

Chapter 229
The imperial doctor was heartbroken, and said: "My minister here also has a prescription for inducing labor, but it is a medicine for tigers and wolves. Drinking it can immediately put the fetus into the basin, but the mother's life will not be long."

After finishing speaking, he waited for orders with the envoy of Zhao Yuan.

Doctors are benevolent, medicine has always been used to save people, when did it hurt people?They don't want anyone to die under their medicine.But the situation is urgent at this time, if the emperor's heir is wronged, how can they afford to suffer?

What's more, one is a mother and the other is a baby who is about to be born, both of which are fresh lives.What right do they have to decide who deserves to live and who deserves to die?

Hearing this, Concubine Fu Xian was also stunned, such a difficult problem was placed in her hands.

According to her heart, what is Shi Xinmei's life worth?Of course, he chose to have this hard-won child.

Although Shi Xinmei is a sinful woman, in this palace, there are three big mountains: the emperor, the empress, and the empress dowager. These three people have not spoken, so why should it be her turn to call the shots?Who knows what those three are thinking?

Wu Guangqi watched from the side, and Shanmei was also on the side. She threw the cup and lost her temper. It seemed that she was worried about the blood of the emperor.

However, if she really took the responsibility for this crime, rumors that she is a cruel and poisonous woman who disregarded the mother's life and forcibly induced labor would spread in the near future.

She was a concubine from a small family, if she hadn't been with the emperor when she was buried in the mansion, and had contributed to giving birth to the second princess, she would not have been able to be this virtuous concubine.

For so many years, she has quietly guarded the Chunling Palace and brought up her daughter single-handedly.Watching her transform from a croaking baby into a young and energetic girl is a great relief.

The emperor will also miss this well-behaved daughter, and come to Chunling Palace from time to time.

I can see very clearly that Empress Cao's natal family is one of the four great princes, and when the Duke of Dingguo's mansion comes, Empress Cao's position will be unbreakable.Even if it wasn't Empress Cao, it wouldn't be her turn to sit in that wind chair by herself, who was of ordinary background.

So why bother?Her quietness and sensibleness have won her the reputation of being a virtuous and virtuous woman. Even the Empress Dowager Xiao praised her as a "virtuous" word!

Thinking of this, Concubine Fu Xian took a deep breath and warned herself that the moment is both an opportunity and a crisis!

If one is not handled well, the position of the fourth concubine that I have guarded for many years will soon be lost!

Empress Cao's position is unattainable, but her position is not coveted by others.Next year, there will be another selection of beautiful women to enter the palace. I heard that among the noble and noble ministers, there are several noble women of the right age who have grown up.This is another round of fighting, and the battle may be even more tragic than the general election a few years ago.

Over the years, as the former dynasty gradually stabilized, Emperor Qinglong spent more time in the harem.There was Liu Zhaoyuan before and Shi Jieyu later, these are living examples.

Concubine Shi De has Anguo Duke's Mansion behind her, as long as she keeps herself upright, she will not be afraid.But I am different, I don't have a mother's family to rely on, what I have been relying on all the time is just the reputation I have accumulated in the palace for many years, and the little affection in the emperor's heart.

At this time, if I was careless and ruined this reputation, some concubines who were vying for favor would want to replace it.

She flashed these thoughts in her mind. Although it was a long story, in fact, in the eyes of others, she was only shocked for a while.

Imperial Physician Yu wiped off his sweat again, and asked cautiously, "Concubine Xian? Do you have a countermeasure?" Neither the mother nor the fetus can wait any longer, so a quick decision is needed.

Concubine Fu Xian seemed to be awakened by him, and immediately said: "Physician Yu, is there a way to slow down? Human life is at stake, and immediately report to the emperor for a decision."

"Concubine Xian, do you have old ginseng here? If you have sliced ​​it immediately, give it to the parturient, it can continue the essence and blood, and it won't be a problem to last for half an hour." Imperial Physician Yu immediately replied.

Concubine Fu Xian made a decisive decision, and said: "Director Wu, please go ahead and report the situation here to the emperor for decision." In an emergency, Wu Guangqi gave a hasty salute, called a few servants, and went to look for it with him. emperor.

"Hongxing, open my warehouse immediately, and take out the 80-year-old ginseng that the emperor rewarded me last time." The old ginseng was originally kept by her for the old parents at home.But right now, I don't care about that much, besides, the old ginseng used at the moment, the emperor will naturally reward him better after knowing about it.

Hong Xing took the lead and left quickly.

"Physician Yu, I trouble you to prepare the labor-inducing decoction. Make sure that it can be used immediately after the emperor makes a decision."

Imperial Physician Yu wiped the sweat off his face, since he was ordered here in the afternoon, his sweat hasn't dried.Hearing the meaning in Fu Xianfei's words, the emperor agreed to use this medicine.

He took the pharmacist down to prepare, and at the same time ordered the message to go in, help the pregnant woman to lie down on the bed, and stopped walking and kneading her stomach.As soon as the old ginseng arrived, he immediately sliced ​​it into her mouth to renew her life.

Following Concubine Fu Xian's order after order, most of the people in the corridor dispersed.Shanmei saw that she was still orderly and considerate under such circumstances, and thought to herself, this virtuous concubine is indeed as virtuous as in the legend, not only virtuous, but also possesses virtuous abilities.

She was satisfied that Concubine Xian didn't send her to find the queen, this kind of hot potato, even the queen would feel very troublesome, one is the heir of the emperor, and the other is a criminal woman, but no matter how you decide, there will be problems.Only the emperor is the best candidate.

Thinking of this, Shanmei said softly: "You don't have to worry about the virtuous concubine, the emperor's heir will definitely be born safely."

Concubine Fu Xian tried her best to smile, Shanmei's words reassured her a bit.It's not because of the false comfort in the words, but because Shanmei is here, representing Empress Cao. It seems that she is very satisfied with her performance just now.

This is the biggest gain of this matter so far.Being able to get Empress Cao's approval will give her a little more protection in this palace in the future.

Shi Xinmei was helped onto the delivery bed, sweating profusely. She just felt that she had never experienced such pain in her life.

There were throbbing pains in her lower abdomen, and blood gushed out from under her skirt, as if her life was passing.The child in her womb was once full of her longing and dreams, but now it is like a demon sent by hell to torture her!

Regardless of her pleas, several tall female doctors carried her around the room in circles.Her legs have long been in spasm, how can she still take a step?

There was also a medical woman from top to bottom, constantly kneading her stomach.The technique is heavy, as if you are experiencing the pain of peeling and cramp!She couldn't help but howl at the top of her lungs.

With the passing of an order, the medical girl finally stopped supporting her to walk, and stopped kneading her stomach, so she was able to breathe for a while.

Lying on the delivery bed, there were still bursts of irregular pain in the lower abdomen, but it was much easier than before.

Only then did she have the strength to turn her eyes and look at the surrounding furnishings.

The delivery room was originally clean and elegant, and the beds and things in it were all handpicked by her.How happy was she at that time, nestling in the emperor's arms, longing for the upcoming baby to be a boy?or a girl?It's better to be a boy, so that her position can be stabilized.But if it's a girl, naturally I love her, what a beautiful little princess!
