Rebirth of Her Royal Highness the Princess

Chapter 191 Holding Breath for Too Long

However, just as they were about to leave Jing, they unexpectedly learned a piece of news: Yue suddenly raised troops to invade the border of Qing. Xue Anze and Princess Qingping were shocked. They immediately rushed back to Qing and reported the situation to the emperor. The emperor urgently summoned the ministers to discuss countermeasures. Princess Qingping volunteered to lead the army. The emperor hesitated again and again, and finally agreed to her request.

Princess Qingping led the army to the border and fought a fierce battle with the Kingdom of Yue. She led the troops and commanded them with confidence. The soldiers were in high spirits and fought bravely. Under Princess Qingping's heroic fighting, the army gradually turned the tide of the war and repelled the attack of the Kingdom of Yue. The victory of this battle not only made Princess Qingping famous, but also made the people of the country full of admiration and gratitude for her.

After the war, Princess Qingping returned triumphantly with a tired body. She was warmly welcomed by the people of the city, who flocked to the streets to cheer for this brave female general.

Hua Xiulan heard that Princess Qingping had returned from a victorious battle and wanted to go see her, but she was already seven months pregnant.

Hua Xiulan, supported by her maid, came to the city gate and watched Princess Qingping approaching slowly on horseback from a distance, feeling full of emotion. Princess Qingping dismounted and clasped her fists to the crowd, and cheers broke out from the crowd.

When Princess Qingping came closer, Hua Xiulan discovered that she had many wounds on her body. Princess Qingping smiled when she saw Hua Xiulan, and the two exchanged a few words.

Suddenly, Hua Xiulan felt a pain in her stomach and her face turned pale. The maid hurriedly supported her and shouted, "The princess is about to give birth! Go find a midwife!" The scene suddenly became chaotic.

Princess Qingping quickly ordered the soldiers around her to help evacuate the crowd and sent someone to invite a midwife. Soon, the midwife arrived and helped Hua Xiulan into a nearby house.

Although the houses nearby were not bad, they were still inferior to Jun Mansion. Princess Qingping sent someone to Jun Mansion to pass a message, asking Jun Moli to come quickly. She also arranged for someone to go to the palace to tell the emperor and the queen what happened here.

"Ah!" A scream came from inside the house, followed by another one.

"Princess, please bear with it." The midwife said anxiously.

"Princess, take a deep breath with me." The other midwife said and took a deep breath.

As time passed, screams continued to be heard from the room. Princess Qingping paced anxiously outside the door.

"Wow——" Finally, the child's cry was heard.

"It's born! It's born! It's a little boy!" The midwife walked out of the room holding the child, saying with a smile on her face.

Princess Qingping breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. However, when she took the child, she found that the child's face was unusually pale.

"What's going on?" she asked anxiously.

The midwife shook her head and said, "The young master's breath is a little weak, I'm afraid..."

Princess Qingping's heart tightened, "No matter what, we must save him!"

At this time, Jun Moli hurried over. When he heard about the child's situation, his face instantly turned gloomy.

"I'll go find the imperial physician!" After saying that, he turned and left.

Princess Qingping looked at his back and prayed silently in her heart. She hoped that everything would be fine...

On the bustling streets, Jun Moli rode on a tall and mighty black horse, the horse galloping as fast as lightning, the sound of the horse's hooves as loud as thunder. He was dressed in gorgeous brocade clothes, with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, handsome and unrestrained, like a bright star across the sky. He galloped all the way, through the busy city, and headed straight for the palace.

Finally arriving at the gate of the palace, Jun Moli rode his horse and rushed in without hesitation. He was extremely anxious and kept urging his horse to speed up. As he passed by, the palace maids and eunuchs all looked at him with curiosity and awe at this heroic man.

Arriving at the gate of the Imperial Hospital, Jun Moli pulled the reins and jumped off the horse. He rushed into the Imperial Hospital with big strides, shouting, "Imperial Physician! Imperial Physician!" His voice was loud and urgent, as if he wanted to wake up the entire Imperial Hospital.

After entering the Imperial Hospital, Jun Moli saw the busy doctors at a glance. Without saying a word, he stepped forward and dragged a doctor, and walked out. The doctor was startled by the sudden action, but when he saw that the person was Jun Moli, he immediately understood the seriousness of the matter. He did not dare to neglect it at all, and hurriedly followed Jun Moli out of the Imperial Hospital.

But his entry into the palace angered the emperor.

"How dare you! No matter how urgent the situation is, you cannot ride a horse into the palace!" The emperor slammed the table in anger.

"Your Majesty, Princess Zhaoyang is about to give birth suddenly in a house on the street today. Your Majesty may be too anxious." The guard replied while kneeling.

"Then...how is Lan'er doing?" the emperor asked anxiously.

"I heard that she gave birth to a boy, but she held her breath for too long..." the guard said hesitantly.

"What?" The emperor was shocked. "Quick! Send the imperial physician! Quick!"

The emperor was extremely anxious and wanted to fly to Lan'er immediately. He could not imagine the pain and danger Lan'er was going through at the moment, and he was powerless to do anything.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. The imperial physician has already left. I believe that with their treatment, the princess will be safe." The ministers on the side consoled him.

"I hope so." The emperor sighed and prayed silently in his heart. He knew what Hua Xiulan meant to him. She was his most beloved daughter. If something happened to her, he didn't know how to face it.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the palace became tense. Everyone was anxiously waiting for news, hoping that Hua Xiulan could get through this difficult time.

Concubine Xian was in a state of confusion, filled with worry and anxiety. She thought of her daughter, whom she had raised with great care, but now suffered such hardships, and she could not help but feel pain in her heart. She prayed silently, hoping that everything would be fine.

"I wonder how Lan'er is doing?" Concubine Xian whispered softly, her eyes full of worry. Her concern for her daughter was beyond words, and she was thinking about her all the time.

The maids beside her comforted her, "Your Majesty, the princess will be fine. The young master will be fine too." They tried to comfort Concubine Xian with warm words to reassure her. However, Concubine Xian was still in a heavy mood. She knew that the current situation was not optimistic, but she still chose to believe that everything would have a good result.

Afterwards, Jun Moli rushed all the way with the imperial physician in a panic and arrived in front of the small house on the street.

“Princess! Princess…”

Jun Moli heard the anxious cries of the palace maid from afar, and his heart tightened. He thought that something had happened to Hua Xiulan, so he quickened his pace and rushed into the house with big strides.

However, when he broke into the room, he saw Hua Xiulan lying on the bed unharmed, with a trace of fatigue and helplessness on her face. She said softly, "I'm fine, just a little tired and want to rest for a while."

"Get out! You're disturbing the princess's rest!" Jun Moli yelled at the palace maid.

He hurriedly asked the imperial physician to check on his baby.

After feeling the pulse, the doctor frowned and whispered, "The young master was born prematurely and has been holding his breath for too long, so his body is extremely weak. He needs careful care to slowly recover." Jun Moli felt a little relieved after hearing this. He looked at Hua Xiulan, his eyes full of pity, "Lan'er, you've worked hard." Hua Xiulan shook her head slightly, "As long as the child is safe, I'll be at ease."
