you are the minutiae of the world

Zhuo Yu woke up from the bumping of the sedan chair, and was fainted again by a huge pain in her abdomen. Xiao Qingzi followed beside the sedan chair in great anxiety. When they arrived at Changning Xuan, both he and Zhuo Yu had clothes Drenched in sweat.

By the time Zhuoyu was pregnant in the seventh month, Changning Xuan's side hall had been properly arranged according to the delivery room, and as soon as Zhuo Yu arrived at Changning Xuan, she was placed in the side hall.People in the world think that childbirth is dirty, and generally women are not allowed to give birth in the main hall, so just now when Hu Bao refused to take Zhuo Yu to the side hall of the Longevity Hall in a critical situation, although Xiao Qingzi was dissatisfied, she passed it quickly up.

Hot water, cloth towels and other supplies for childbirth are all ready. The midwife is also Madam Wang who has lived in Changningxuan since May. Doctor Zhang came very quickly. He cleaned his hands and entered the house. He heard that Zhuo Yu was already in a coma In the past, he hastily sent someone to prepare the oxytocin, and he himself woke Zhuo Yu up.

"My lord, you were born prematurely, and the fetal position is not correct. It takes a lot of effort to give birth to the baby." Imperial doctor Zhang pressed Zhuo Yu's stomach for a moment, and said in a concentrated voice: "During delivery is extremely dangerous, you must not pass out. If you faint and lose your strength...."

"I know," Zhuo Yu broke out in cold sweat from the pain, with bruised veins on his forehead, panting, clutching the bedding under him tightly, "I won't pass out, Doctor Zhang...you must Let the child be well! Be sure to let him be well!"

Doctor Zhang paused, and his tone was a little strange: "I will do my best."

Zhuo Yu was already dizzy from the pain, but he held back his heart so hard that he wouldn't faint. He didn't notice the strangeness of Imperial Physician Zhang at all. He turned his head with difficulty to look at the busy and anxious maids and nuns around him, and called out in a low voice. A sentence: "Xiao Qingzi..."

Xiao Qingzi had been guarding behind the curtain, when she heard the words, she hurried in and knelt in front of Zhuo Yu's bed: "Master, the servant is here, the servant is here."

"I want to see the emperor, please go and invite the emperor..." Zhuo Yu tugged on Xiao Qingzi's sleeve, he was in so much pain that his eyes were red from the pain, and he spoke intermittently: "You personally... ....go......"

"Okay, slave will go now, slave will go now," Xiao Qingzi responded repeatedly, shaking Zhuo Yu's pale hand: "Master, give birth with peace of mind, Xiao Qingzi will go now." After speaking, she ran away.

He just ran outside the hall when he heard Zhuo Yu's heart-piercing cries of pain, Xiao Qingzi felt sorry for her master, turned her head to look in the direction of the hall, did not dare to delay, and ran desperately towards the direction of the Hall of Eternal Life.

The snow was getting bigger and bigger, and it blinded Xiao Qingzi's eyes. She slipped a few times and fell down. He didn't care about these things, so he got up and continued to run without losing speed.

Li Pin, who was resting in the room, heard the non-stop noise outside, frowned and asked: "What happened outside, why is it so noisy."

Ruo Lan, the maid of honor, came in: "It is said that Mrs. Wei had a sudden seizure, and she has already started giving birth."

"What did you say?!" Concubine Li sat up from the bed with a whoosh, and lifted the curtain: "Your Majesty Wei gave birth tonight? Why is there no sign at all?"

"It's a sudden onset, it's said to be a premature birth," Ruolan said one by one, "The imperial physician and nuns have gone, and the chief eunuch in Wei Guiren's palace is rushing to invite the emperor. "

"Oh," Concubine Li sneered, and got up from the bed. Ruolan lowered her head and wanted to put on a fox cloak for her, but Concubine Li refused, "Bring clothes for me, how can I not go to such a big event tonight?" have a look?"

"Your Majesty," Ruolan persuaded, "The emperor valued nobleman Wei. When he was pregnant, he ordered the concubines in the harem not to come to Changning Xuan when they had nothing to do. Now that he gives birth suddenly, if we come together suddenly, in case nobleman Wei goes out What's the matter, then we can't pick it clean?"

Concubine Li put on her fingertips slowly after hearing this, and said meaningfully: "Whether I go or not, tonight will not be peaceful."

Ruolan was puzzled, but Li Concubine smiled lightly, with hatred in her eyes that couldn't be concealed: "He is also the favorite of the harem, why should he take all the favor? Exclusive favor? He is worthy of a son?"

"Your Majesty, do you want to...?" Ruolan saw the hatred in Li Pin's eyes, and said worriedly: "Even if we want to do it, we have to think long-term, so reckless in the past... ..”

Concubine Li interrupted Ruolan: "There's no need for me to do anything, what should have been done already, I'm going, just be a kind person."

Xiao Qingzi didn't invite Chu Xiongjie, so he ran to the entrance of the Hall of Longevity, and was stopped by Hu Bao, and when he hurriedly expressed his future intentions, Hu Baocai said: "The emperor is not in the palace, the military affairs are urgent, the emperor will leave overnight Palace."

After hearing this, Xiao Qingzi was like a bolt from the blue: "Boss Hu, this... how can this work... My master is having a hard time giving birth, and he just wants to see the emperor, can you ask Boss Hu to find a way to invite the emperor, Just let the emperor come to meet my master! He is alone in the delivery room, suffering from heart-piercing pain, dying, the master must be terrified, so I asked Mr. Hu to help me, and went to ask the emperor, even if the emperor said at the gate of Changning Xuan A few words are fine..."

"Nonsense! What did you say, a slave?!" Hu Bao yelled sharply, "You, a slave, can speak nonsense about the emperor's coming and going."

Xiaoqingzi was anxious and angry, she knew she had said something wrong, so she hurriedly begged for mercy.

"Wei Guiren's sudden childbirth has already sent someone to send the letter. I think the emperor will receive the letter in a short time. At that time, the emperor will feel sorry for Wei Guiren, so he will naturally come to see Wei Guiren. You go back and take care of the nobleman. He is pregnant. This is the emperor's first child, so there is no chance of getting out." Seeing him awake, Hu Bao said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Xiao Qingzi knew that her trip was in vain, but he was still thinking about Zhuo Yu, and urgently told Hu Bao to tell the emperor about her master's delivery, and then turn around and run back.

Hu Bao watched Xiao Qingzi disappear around the corner, turned around with lowered eyebrows and walked quickly into the main hall of the Hall of Eternal Life, and bowed to the figure behind the table who was reading a book, "Your Majesty, you have already dismissed me."

After a long time, the person behind the desk spoke slowly: "Go and send a letter to Imperial Doctor Zhang. Zhuo Yu can't make any mistakes. Tell him to take care of the rest."

"Yes." Hu Bao agreed, turned around and was about to go out.

"Get off your horse."

Hu Bao stopped in his tracks: "Where is the emperor going?"

"Since you said that the widow is leaving the palace," Chu Xiongjie casually threw the book on the table and said, "Then it's time to leave the palace."

When Xiao Qingzi ran back to Changning Pavilion, she was still out of breath when she heard an exclamation from the side hall: It's not good, your lord is bleeding profusely!

Xiao Qingzi's heart suddenly turned cold, and she was about to rush in, but was stopped by a few palace maids: "The nobleman should not catch the cold right now, you are so cold, you will disturb the nobleman if you go in."

Xiao Qingzi was dying of anxiety, but he could only wait outside, his brows were so wrinkled that he could kill a fly, he kept pacing outside the door, at first he could hear Zhuo Yu's cries of pain, then he just listened to It was gone, and seeing basins of blood pouring out, Xiao Qingzi's hands were shaking with fear.

In the second half of the night, the snow fell harder and harder, reflecting the outside of the house in white, with a coolness that penetrated into the bone marrow.

Doctor Zhang opened the door, there was still wet blood on his palm, behind him was an unremarkable little eunuch, holding a basket in his hand, the basket was tightly covered with a white cloth.

Xiao Qingzi rushed up: "Doctor Zhang, what's the matter, is my master okay, did you give birth?"

"The nobleman is bleeding heavily. Fortunately, he was rescued. Now he is in a coma. When he wakes up, he will be fine after resting." Imperial Physician Zhang said in a deep voice, "It's just that the child has been born for too long, and he died immediately after he was born." The person behind winked, and the little eunuch hurried away with the basket in hand. At that time, Xiao Qingzi was all focused on Doctor Zhang, and she didn't notice that a little eunuch was leaving.

"How is it possible!" Xiao Qingzi pulled the sleeve of Imperial Physician Zhang like crazy, and shouted loudly: "How could it be, my little master! Imperial Physician Zhang, you have superb medical skills, you can definitely save the child, right? Please save him! This child is Master's life!"

Doctor Zhang took a step back and pushed Xiao Qingzi's hand away: "No matter how superb your medical skills are, you can only treat the living. You should go in and see the nobleman. When the nobleman wakes up, give him some comfort."

This night seemed extraordinarily long, the sun hadn't risen in the sky yet, and I don't know what time it is, Changning Pavilion passed by just now and there was a lot of excitement, and with the departure of Imperial Physician Zhang, everyone went back to rest except for the palace staff who stayed on duty. Changning Xuan seemed to have fallen into dead silence.

Zhuo Yu's room was very warm, he sweated a lot, bled a lot, lay on the bed, his face was pale, his brows were tightly frowned, even if he was unconscious, he seemed to be unable to let go of something in his heart.

Xiao Qingzi stared at him without blinking, and he saw Zhuo Yu's eyelashes trembling slightly, as if she was about to wake up.

Zhuo Yu opened her big eyes and asked Xiao Qingzi, "Where's my child?"

Xiao Qingzi was speechless, tears rolled down her eyes, and he said choked up: "Master, you are still young, and there will still be children."

Zhuo Yu was stunned, he seemed to be in a daze, he didn't cry or fuss, blinked his eyes: "Why didn't he get it?"

"Physician Zhang said that you were bleeding profusely, and the child is holding back, and it will be gone after birth."

"Oh," Zhuo Yu murmured, "It's me, I didn't protect him... I didn't protect him well... What about the emperor? Does the emperor know? Why isn't the emperor here? Why isn't the emperor here?" In? Did he blame me? I'm so useless......."

Xiao Qingzi looked at her master like this, and her heart seemed to be grabbed by someone's hands: "The emperor has urgent military affairs to leave the palace, so he didn't come...Master, there will be more children. Doctor Zhang said you As long as you take care of yourself, you will have children again..."

"Hehe," a soft laugh came from behind the screen, startling Xiaoqingzi, and he turned around and shouted angrily, "Who is it!"

Concubine Li walked in wearing a long black gown, behind her Ruolan was carrying a basket wrapped in white cloth, with wet soil and dirty blood on it.

"Wei Zhuoyu, you won't have children anymore."

"What are you talking about! Empress Li, please pay attention to your words!" Xiao Qingzi exploded when she heard these words.

Zhuo Yu grabbed him.

Ruolan sent the basket to Zhuo Yu's window, and gently lifted the white cloth.

After Zhuo Yu lowered his head to see clearly, his eyes were about to split open, his whole body began to tremble slowly, Xiao Qingzi looked back and sat down on the ground in fright.

"What do you think is the decoction you drank from the day you became favored?"

"It's a rumor from the harem of the Qi State that women who drink too much will become strong but can no longer have children."

"The decoction was given to you by the emperor instructing Imperial Physician Zhang to drink it himself. This medicine is expensive, even if other concubines want to drink it, the emperor is reluctant to use such an expensive decoction to sterilize her."

"Who would have thought you were pregnant?"

"But so what if you are pregnant with this child? No matter how stubborn the child is, if the decoction goes on for a few days, he will definitely be stillborn on the day of birth."

"I heard that your fetus didn't move very much during pregnancy? Hehe, take a bowl of anti-total medicine every day, and a bowl of secret medicine every few days. No matter how capable your child is, he can't stand such a toss. What's the difference if it's done? I didn't expect our emperor to punish people so harshly."

"You poor child," Li Pin shook her head, with regret and pain on her face, her hypocritical appearance was disgusting: "Look at the bruises on his body, densely packed, I think he suffered a lot in your stomach , Doctor Zhang wanted to hide it from you and deal with it secretly, I am kind enough to help you dig it out and show you a few eyes."

"To save you from working hard to conceive him, but not even seeing him when you arrive."

Zhuo Yu stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the child's cheek, but that hand was shaking really badly.

He didn't shed a single tear, and there was no expression on his face, just staring at the child in the basket in a daze.

That poor, horrible child covered in bruises.

After a long, long time, it was so long that Concubine Li wanted to leave, she suddenly became scared for no reason, the man in front of her was too calm, too plain, staring at the dead child in the basket without saying a word, that gaze, that The appearance made the arrogant Li Pin retreat, she took a few steps back and wanted to leave.

At this time Zhuo Yu suddenly spoke, his voice was hoarse and unbelievable: "Thank you, Empress Lipin."

Pin Li glared at him, thinking that this person might be crazy, and hurried away with Ruolan.

"Xiao Qingzi, go get the candle and the charcoal basin." Zhuo Yu called softly.

Xiao Qingzi nodded, turned her head and left the room.

"It turns out that you kicked me at night to ask daddy for help."

"Son, daddy is useless."

"Daddy didn't save you," Zhuo Yu lowered his head, hugged the child in his arms, and kissed him affectionately, "Daddy is such a fool."
