Su Tingwan must keep the child because it is her eldest brother's child, and the child is nominally Xie Shang's. Only by keeping the child can she make her plans, and they have been waiting.

The next moment, Su Tingwan suddenly knelt in front of Jiang Fenghua and kowtowed to her, "The humble slave Su Tingwan begs the Crown Princess to have mercy and save Ye Liang's child."

She slapped herself twice and said, "As long as the Crown Princess calms down, I'm willing to do anything you ask me to do."

"You really care about Ye Liangqi's child. Su Tingwan, when have you ever been so kind? You are so abnormal, I'm afraid you have bad intentions!" Jiang Fenghua said directly.

Su Tingwan paused. She always felt that Jiang Fenghua knew something.

"I want you to help her give birth, but you can just stay by her side." Jiang Fenghua added. "Madam Wang, please invite the midwife in to help concubine Ye Liang give birth."

Just wait for the midwives to come in one after another.

At this time, Lian Ye brought a soft chair for Jiang Fenghua, "Please sit down, Crown Princess. It may take a long time for Ye Liang to give birth, and I am tired of standing."

This soft chair was moved from the East Palace by Lian Ye because she was afraid that there would be no place to sit in the Cold Palace.

After Jiang Fenghua sat down calmly, Lian Ye handed her a hand warmer and said, "Don't get cold."

Su Tingwan could only watch all this. Now all the servants who were originally serving in the cold palace were driven out and were no longer in the room. The room was filled with Jiang Fenghua's people.

In order to avoid blood, Nanny Wang even brought in a screen and waited until everything was ready before letting the midwife start to check whether Ye Susu was about to give birth. However, after the examination, it was found that Ye Susu just had a stomachache and her cervix was not dilated at all.

Jiang Fenghua asked someone to invite Doctor Wang.

After the imperial physician Wang came to check, he said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid it will be difficult for Miss Ye to have this baby."

At this time, Ye Susu's heart-wrenching cry came from behind the screen, "I will definitely give birth, Doctor Wang, prepare me a labor-inducing drug."

It must be that her needle was not inserted in the right place, but she had already triggered fetal movement. If she didn't give birth now, it would be even more dangerous. She had no choice but to force-feed the oxytocin to open the cervix, but this was also very dangerous and could easily cause heavy bleeding. She was gambling with her life, gambling whether God would take her life.

Jiang Fenghua thought Ye Susu was crazy. She was forcing labor even though the due date had not yet arrived. She asked in a deep voice, "Where is the plan given by Doctor Wang?"

"I also suggest inducing labor. In this situation, the longer the fetus stays in the mother's body, the more likely it is to suffocate to death." said Imperial Doctor Mei.

At this time, Empress Cheng heard the news and rushed over, "How could he suffocate to death? Imperial Physician Wang must use whatever means to protect the heir to the throne."

Seeing Queen Cheng coming, Jiang Fenghua quickly stood up from her seat and said, "The daughter-in-law pays respects to the Queen Mother."

Su Tingwan and Ye Susu's eyes lit up, their savior had arrived.

Su Tingwan quickly hugged Queen Cheng's thigh, "Your Majesty the Queen..."

Queen Cheng's eyes were stern, and she kicked her, "Where did this lowly slave come from? It's so disgusting."

"I am Su Tingwan. Jiang Fenghua wants to kill Ye Liangqi's heir..."

"Madame Xi." Queen Cheng shouted coldly.

Nanny Xi quickly brought people over, and Empress Cheng ordered, "Drag this unruly person out and give him a slap in the face."

"Yes." Nanny Xi's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and she had someone take her out. She only heard the sound of "Pa Pa" slapping her face, "I told you not to be so mean and slander the Crown Princess."

Queen Cheng no longer dared to cause trouble for Jiang Fenghua. During this period of time, she had been taking care of the emperor, and her relationship with Shang'er had returned to normal.

She said to Jiang Fenghua, "When did the Crown Princess come?"

"My daughter-in-law has been here for quite a while. She knew that concubine Ye Liang was about to give birth, so she came to take a look. That's why she asked Doctor Wang to examine the young lady." Jiang Fenghua explained in a gentle voice.

"The Crown Princess is thoughtful. Ruan Ruan, don't worry. Mother will not listen to Su Tingwan's words." Empress Cheng also pretended to be full of love on her face. "Ruan Ruan and I both care about the emperor's heir."

"Yes, my daughter-in-law thinks so too. Our East Palace mistress has been pregnant one after another, and now Ye Liang, my concubine, is about to give birth." Jiang Fenghua said to Doctor Wang again, "No matter what method is used, the adults and the child must be saved."

Doctor Wang was also in a dilemma, "I will do my best."

So, Jiang Fenghua and Queen Cheng waited together for Ye Susu to give birth.

Soon, Doctor Wang also gave Ye Susu several large bowls of labor-inducing drugs, and her cervix finally loosened a little.

After several hours, Ye Susu's body was almost exhausted and she fainted. Finally, she gave birth to a weak baby boy. Due to Ye Susu's forced induction of labor, she suffered from uterine bleeding.

Doctor Wang personally went to the rescue and finally saved Ye Susu's life, but her uterus was injured. She would never be able to be a woman in her life, let alone have children.

Here, the midwife was cleaning the baby, and suddenly she screamed and they were stunned.

Queen Cheng asked, "What happened?"

The midwife glanced at Nanny Wang, knelt on the ground and said quickly, "Maybe I made a mistake. Please ask Doctor Wang to come and take a look."

At this time, Empress Cheng took a closer look at the child and said, "Why does he look so small? He seems to be very weak." She had clearly ordered the child to be sent to the cold palace with good food and drink.

Nanny Wang also said, "It really doesn't look like a full-term baby. Its eyebrows and eyes don't look like the Crown Prince's either!"

Queen Cheng also came over to take a closer look. It was indeed not like Shang'er when he was a child, but it was normal for a newborn baby not to look like that. But why did he look premature? It was obviously overdue.

At this time, after the examination, Doctor Wang was so frightened that his face changed and he broke out in a cold sweat. He did not believe his diagnosis and checked again. The child cried very softly and seemed very weak, but this was not the most serious problem. Malnutrition could be cured in the later stage.

But the most serious thing is...

Jiang Fenghua was also confused, "Besides the child's weak body, is there any other problem?"

"Reporting to the Queen Mother and the Crown Princess, the royal heir is clearly a boy, but I have not felt his kidney sac. However, some children have to wait one to two months before the scrotum can be felt, which is normal." He hastily added.

"What do you mean? Speak clearly. This concerns the royal heir. Doctor Wang, you should know the consequences of telling lies." The queen said coldly.

"I have diagnosed that although this child has male characteristics, he is not born to be a man. He was born with a congenital disability because he did not develop completely in the mother's womb." Doctor Wang said directly.

Empress Cheng was also frightened and broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this. "How could this happen?"

"There may be many reasons..." Doctor Wang explained one by one.

Jiang Fenghua seemed to understand that Ye Susu had tampered with her body in the early days in order to prevent the imperial physician from being able to determine the exact month of pregnancy after taking her pulse. Later on, she wanted to speed up the delivery of her child, and the child was born prematurely, causing his body to be weak.

The reason why the child became like this was, firstly, the Su family had committed too many sins and the retribution came to the child; secondly, Ye Susu herself caused such a tragic fate for her child.

Jiang Fenghua's mind raced, "Mother, this matter must not be spread out. If the news of the heir's illness is spread out, it will affect the reputation of the royal family! If someone with ulterior motives spreads that the Crown Prince passed it on to the child, then... why not conceal the child's condition for the time being."

Queen Cheng's eyes were full of anger. "This is clearly Ye Susu's own problem. What does it have to do with Shang'er? Ruan Ruan, the two royal heirs you gave birth to are healthy, cute, and smart. Whoever dares to spread rumors about the prince, I will never forgive him." She really felt it was too unlucky. She was still looking forward to Ye Susu's child. When Doctor Wang said it might be a boy, she was even happier.

She said this to the people present.

Everyone also began to express their loyalty, "We will keep our mouths shut, please spare my life, Madam."

Jiang Fenghua said, "It's not the midwife's fault that Ye Liang gave birth to such a child. Besides, didn't Doctor Wang say that maybe the child will be fine after one or two months? No one is allowed to discuss the heir to the throne, otherwise they will be severely punished."

"Yes, we dare not. We will keep this matter to ourselves." Everyone said again.

In the end, the queen just ignored it and left the cold palace with her people. She originally thought that after the child was born, she could bring him to Kunning Palace, but now she has no interest in it anymore.

He only said, "Ruan Ruan, make arrangements! I still have to take care of your father."
