The waiting time is often extremely long.

While Fang Ruo asked someone to inform the imperial physician and inform everyone about her movements, An Lingrong felt the pain in her abdomen getting stronger and stronger.

During this period, although Fang Ruo stayed by her side and ordered everything in an orderly manner according to the plan that had been prepared before, she could not share the pain that An Lingrong was suffering at the time.

"My dear, please drink some ginseng soup first!"

Fang Ruo saw all of this and felt very sorry for An Lingrong. She immediately brought over a bowl of ginseng soup that she had prepared.

This ginseng soup can be used to replenish qi and blood. An Lingrong will definitely consume a lot of physical energy when giving birth. Before that, Fang Ruo naturally has to make adequate preparations for her.

"No need..."

An Lingrong simply shook her head at Fang Ruo's kind reminder.

She didn't mind this bowl of ginseng soup, but no one knew how long it would take to give birth to the baby successfully. If she had to rely on medicine to boost her energy now, what would she do in the future?

"All right!"

Seeing An Lingrong's firm attitude, Fang Ruo had no choice but to give up. On the one hand, she was anxiously waiting for Liuyun to bring the imperial physician back from the Imperial Hospital.

It was such a coincidence that An Lingrong didn't start it early or late, but just happened to start it on New Year's Eve!

This is a big day to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, so all the six palaces are busy. Fang Ruo is not sure whether the emperor and the empress can come as soon as they hear the news.

"Aunt! I, I invited the imperial physician!"

After waiting for a long time, An Lingrong felt that her water had broken, and Liuyun and Baojuan finally rushed back from outside.

Of course, they did not come back alone. According to the tasks assigned by Fangruo, Liuyun went to the Imperial Hospital to ask for the imperial physician, while Baojuan brought the midwives arranged by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"My young master, you should take some rest first. I will go out and take a look!"

Fang Ruo did not dare to be careless in this regard. She signaled An Lingrong to continue to be patient while she went out to meet the imperial physician and the midwife.

After all, An Lingrong is the concubine in the palace. There is a difference between men and women. Even if it is an imperial physician, the role he can play when a concubine gives birth is far less than that of a midwife who is responsible for delivering the baby.

Fang Ruo had already taught etiquette to concubines in the palace during the Kangxi period, so she had seen a lot. Because of this, she was also worried that someone would secretly do something when An Lingrong was giving birth.

For a woman giving birth to a child is like going to the gates of hell and coming back. There are so many shady things going on in the palace that Fang Ruo naturally wouldn't dare to gamble on absolute success!

"Aunt, how is the young master's current condition?"

Fortunately, the imperial physician that Liuyun invited was Wen Shichu, who could be considered an "old acquaintance" of An Lingrong.

Fang Ruo was once the aunt who taught Zhen Huan and An Lingrong, so she naturally knew that Lord Wen was deeply trusted by the two ladies.

At this time, facing the questions from Wen Shichu, Fang Ruo did not hide anything and quickly told him all about An Lingrong's physical condition.

"Well... I will go and write a prescription right away. Please ask Auntie to have all the herbs prepared."

Wen Shichu also knew that this matter was of great importance, not to mention that An Lingrong had a close relationship with Zhen Huan.

Regardless of emotion or reason, Wen Shichu will give his all when serving the opponent!

"Then there is Lord Lawwin!"

Seeing that Wen Shichu was so understanding, Fang Ruo felt relieved. She nodded and asked Wen Shichu to write the prescription quickly so that she could boil the medicine earlier.

After watching him leave, Fangruo turned her attention to the two midwives who were led by Baojuan.

Because there are quite a few pregnant concubines in the palace now, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has been prepared in this regard and has arranged for experienced midwives to enter the palace in advance for training.

However, considering the depth of the water in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the fact that Baojuan had not always been loyal to An Lingrong, Fangruo always had some doubts in her heart.

"Hello, aunt!"

These two midwives were both old ladies over 70 years old, but they were very respectful to Fangruo, who was almost the same age as them.

"The young lady's water has broken now. You all know what you have to do next. Don't make any mistakes. Go all out. As long as the young lady can give birth to the heir safely, you will naturally benefit from it!"

Fang Ruo had a serious expression and gave the two old women a scolding.

After the two of them nodded obediently, Fangrong let Liuyun take the people in.

"Aunt, is the young master okay?"

Baojuan watched Liuyun lead the others in, while she herself remained outside. Even Fangruo looked at her with a very deep gaze, which made her feel a little nervous.

I swear to God, she has already turned over a new leaf!

However, because she had been stubborn before, she still had some hope in her heart, which had already left some indelible marks in the hearts of An Lingrong and the others. It was too late for Baojuan to regret.

"My lady, please be alright. Such sufferings must be endured. None of us can do it for you. We can only pray to the Bodhisattva to bless you and let you give birth to the child as soon as possible."

After answering casually, Fangruo said to Baojuan, "Thank you for going and inviting the midwife. Now I am in charge of everything here. Nothing will go wrong. But I just asked those maids to report to various places. I don't know if the emperor, the queen mother, and the queen have learned about the young lady's situation?"

"This, I don't know either!"

Baojuan was already very active in her mind. When she saw Fangruo's attitude, what was there that she didn't understand?

Since the other party has been on guard against her, Baojuan can only use facts to prove her innocence!

However, Baojuan naturally could not answer the question raised by Fangruo.

The situation was urgent at the time, and the first people Fang Ruo could think of were the imperial physician and the midwife. She sent them into two groups and each acted according to the plan.

As for notifying Yongzheng and others, this was not the most important matter, so it was naturally left to other less important palace maids.

At this time, Fang Ruo asked about this matter again, and Bao Juan was also completely clueless.

"Then go and have a look!"

Fang Ruo now wanted to send Baojuan away to avoid any accidents at the critical moment, so she just made up an excuse.

"it is good!"

Baojuan did not hesitate at all. When she heard what the other party said, she nodded immediately and left Yonghe Palace, preparing to go to the Yangxin Palace.

Although there are three official masters in this palace, everyone knows that the most important one is the emperor.

Even though the Empress Dowager held a high status and the Emperor ruled the country with filial piety and was therefore extremely filial to the Empress Dowager, when something as big as this happened, the first person to be notified was naturally the Emperor.

So Baojuan chose her destination without hesitation.

Unexpectedly, just as she walked out of the palace, she met someone on the way whom Baojuan really didn't want to meet!
