On the day of rebirth, I took my baby to find Jiuqiansui to recognize his relatives

Doctor Zhang was so moved that he couldn't save face and agreed immediately. However, he secretly thought in his heart that he must not embarrass himself in front of this young woman at all costs.

The competition began, and the palace maids were busy preparing medicinal materials. The whole palace was filled with the fragrance of herbs. Jiang Yanwan and Doctor Zhang stood back to back, each preparing a prescription. The people around them held their breath and waited. The atmosphere was tense and subtle.

Soon, two doses of medicine were presented to everyone. Doctor Zhang's prescription was rich in color and seemed to be very effective, while Jiang Yanwan's was much clearer, with a peaceful aroma.

"You'll know the result after taking it." Jiang Yanwan said softly, with a firm look in her eyes.

Defei hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to try two medicines at the same time, half of the dose came from Imperial Physician Zhang, and the other half was made by Jiang Yanwan.

Soon after taking Jiang Yanwan's medicine, Concubine De's complexion gradually improved. Her original fatigue was replaced by a faint blush, and her spirits also became lifted.

"I feel much better, and the baby in my belly seems to be much calmer." Concubine De stroked her belly gently, her eyes full of surprise.

Doctor Zhang's face looked extremely ugly. He didn't expect that the medicine he carefully prepared would be no match for Jiang Yanwan's simple few herbs.

Jiang Yanwan's prescription not only relieved Concubine De's discomfort, but also unexpectedly soothed the fetal movement, which was truly rare.

"Miss Yan Wan, your medical skills are indeed superb. I am convinced." Defei praised, her words full of gratitude.

Defei's praise was like a spring breeze blowing through the palace. Jiang Yanwan's name quickly spread in the harem and became a popular story.

Imperial Physician Zhang retired in disgrace, and the position of the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau remained vacant. All the ministers unanimously recommended Jiang Yanwan to take over, believing that she had both medical skills and courage, and was the best candidate.

When the emperor learned of this, he issued an edict to formally appoint Jiang Yanwan as the head of the Imperial Medical Service.

For a time, Jiang Yanwan became the most popular figure in the palace.

She was fully aware of the weight of her responsibility and dared not slack off in the slightest. In addition to handling the affairs of the Imperial Hospital every day, she also personally supervised Concubine De's pregnancy care, striving to ensure that everything went smoothly.

However, a tall tree attracts the wind, and Jiang Yanwan's rise touched the interests of some people, and a conspiracy was quietly brewing.

"Master, these are the medicinal herbs that just arrived today. They have been carefully checked according to your instructions." A young eunuch respectfully presented a basket of herbs. Jiang Yanwan looked at them one by one and nodded in satisfaction.

It was late at night, the moonlight was shining on the bluestone slabs of the Imperial Hospital, and Jiang Yanwan was still studying ancient books under the lamp, trying to find more recipes to preserve the fetus.

Suddenly, there was a slight noise outside the door. She put down the book alertly and approached the door quietly.

"Who's there?" she asked in a low voice, but there was silence outside the door.

The next day, Concubine De's due date was approaching, and everyone in the palace was immersed in a tense and expectant atmosphere.

Jiang Yanwan stayed by her side all the time, personally preparing the medicines needed for delivery and ensuring that everything was ready.

In the delivery room, Concubine De's painful moans came one after another. Jiang Yanwan calmly directed the operations from the side, and every step was precise.

However, as the labor progressed, Concubine De's bleeding increased abnormally and her condition became critical.

"How could this happen?" Jiang Yanwan's heart sank, and she immediately realized that the problem was with the medicinal materials.

She quickly checked the remaining potions and discovered that one of the hemostatic herbs had been replaced with a plant that looked similar but had no medicinal effect.

"Don't panic, everyone stay calm!" Jiang Yanwan's voice was firm and powerful.

The atmosphere in Concubine De's delivery room suddenly became extremely tense.

Fine beads of sweat oozed out of Jiang Yanwan's forehead. Her eyes suddenly became sharp and she quickly thought of a countermeasure in her mind.

Gu magic is her last trump card and also the secret she is most reluctant to reveal to others.

"Princess, please go to my room and get the carved wooden box. Remember, be quick!" Jiang Yanwan ordered Li Qing who was waiting anxiously on the side, with unquestionable determination in her voice.

Li Qing was stunned. Although she was puzzled, seeing Jiang Yanwan so serious, she immediately turned around and ran away, her heart full of doubts and uneasiness.

At the same time, Jiang Yanwan stared at Concubine De, comforting her with words while preparing emergency herbal medicine as quickly as possible in an attempt to slow down the bleeding trend.

Her hands moved as fast as flying, and every step she took was extremely precise, as if she was racing against time.

"Empress Defei, please hold on, it will be fine soon." Jiang Yanwan's words were gentle but firm, trying to convey strength to Empress Defei.

Not long after, Li Qing returned panting, holding the exquisite carved wooden box tightly in her hands.

Jiang Yanwan took the wooden box, took a deep breath, and opened the lid. Inside lay a small poisonous insect that was completely green and emitting a faint light.

"Don't worry, this is the 'Green Blood Gu' that I carefully cultivated, which is specially used to stop bleeding and heal wounds." Jiang Yanwan explained softly to Concubine De, and then carefully placed the Gu near Concubine De's wrist.

The green blood insect seemed to sense something and squirmed slightly, instantly turning into a green light and sinking into Concubine De's body.

Miraculously, Defei's bleeding gradually decreased until it stopped completely, and her complexion slowly regained its color.

Defei opened her eyes weakly and looked at Jiang Yanwan gratefully: "Yanwan, you saved me and my child. I will never forget this kindness."

Jiang Yanwan smiled slightly and said softly: "It is my duty as a doctor to ensure that the queen is safe. However, this matter needs to be kept secret to avoid unnecessary disturbances."

Concubine De nodded, a complex light flashed in her eyes. Obviously, she understood the interests involved.

Time passed minute by minute, and outside the delivery room, the emperor paced back and forth anxiously.

The palace servants didn't dare to make a sound, and the entire palace seemed to be frozen.

"The Empress Defei gave birth to a son successfully, both mother and child are safe!"

Finally, good news came from the delivery room. The emperor's frown relaxed and the whole palace was filled with jubilation.

After dealing with postpartum matters, Jiang Yanwan walked out of the delivery room, looking pale and exhausted.

She knew that although this crisis had been temporarily resolved, as long as the mastermind behind the incident was not eliminated, the safety of Concubine De and even the entire palace would be threatened. She was already walking on thin ice in the palace, and being plotted against every now and then was not a good thing for either her or Ah Yan...

"Yan Wan, thank you for your hard work." Princess Li Qing came over, her eyes full of gratitude, "You saved Concubine De and the little prince. I thank you on behalf of the royal family."

Jiang Yanwan shook her head slightly: "Princess, you are too kind. This is my job. But what happened today was definitely not accidental. I suspect someone is deliberately targeting me, even at the cost of endangering Concubine De's safety."

Li Qing frowned slightly when she heard this: "I will tell my brother about this matter and make sure to get to the bottom of it. But you have to be careful too, the people in the palace are unpredictable."

"I understand." Jiang Yanwan nodded, already having a plan in mind.
