Concubine Li Shu curled up with stomachache, her face turned pale, and soon her lower body turned red.

"Your Majesty, you must save my concubine and the emperor's son."

Concubine Li Shu was afraid. This child was her capital for success. If she couldn't keep it, she would lose her support for the rest of her life.

Emperor Mingwen shouted loudly: "Ask all the imperial doctors from the imperial hospital to come over, and we must protect the little prince!"

The room suddenly became busy. Emperor Mingwen sat at the top with a sullen face. The atmosphere was solemn, and no one dared to talk nonsense.

The little maid walked out carrying basins of blood.

A strong fishy smell emanated from the small space, coupled with Concubine Li Shu's shouting, which only made people a little more irritable.

Across the screen, several imperial doctors were discussing in low voices.

"Concubine Li Shu's lower body is bleeding profusely. What should we do?"

"I'm afraid the little prince is in danger."

Chu Yunning frowned as she listened. Even if Concubine Li Shu's fetus was saved at this moment, she might not be able to have a healthy and smooth delivery.

Protecting Concubine Li Shu's pregnancy is a troublesome job.

At this time, two imperial doctors came out from the screen.

"How?" Emperor Mingwen asked nervously.

The imperial doctor knelt down and said, "Back to the emperor, Concubine Lishu is bleeding from her lower body. If this continues, the child will be in danger, and even the adults will be in danger."

Emperor Mingwen said angrily: "No matter what method you think of, I must save the little prince!"

Concubine Li Shu's body was not even mentioned. She only cared about the little prince throughout the whole process. Chu Yunning sighed and felt sad for Concubine Li Shu.

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen and others have tried all their methods to no avail. Wei Chen deserves to die." The two imperial doctors kowtowed.

Emperor Mingwen tightened his face and said sternly: "In other words, my prince cannot be saved?"

"The humble minister is incompetent."

The atmosphere fell into a stalemate again.

The Empress of the Palace looked at Chu Yunning meaningfully: "Your Majesty, doesn't Princess Xiao know medical skills? Why don't she try it? After all, she is also responsible for this matter. If she can't be cured, punish her!"

When Chu Yunning heard this, she rolled her eyes angrily and really wanted to sew the queen's mouth shut with a needle!

"Ning'er!"

A cordial greeting came from behind, and Chu Yunning turned around to see the Queen Mother hurriedly coming, with unconcealed worry on her face.

"Queen Mother!"

Greetings everyone.

The Queen Mother waved her hand to let people get up, then turned to look at Concubine Li Shu behind the screen.

After a while, she came out with a solemn look on her face: "Isn't Concubine Li Shu's fetus in good condition? Why did she become pregnant?"

"Queen Mother, it was Princess Xiao who made rude remarks that irritated Concubine Li Shu." The Queen Mother was afraid that the Queen Mother would not know the reason, so she quickly explained the cause and effect.

However, the Queen Mother hummed: "Concubine Li Shu knew clearly that she was pregnant with the emperor's heir and would not properly give birth to the baby in the palace, yet she worried about things that she shouldn't have to worry about."

The Queen Mother was complaining about Concubine Li Shu's restlessness, so she was trying to excuse Chu Yunning.

The Queen was a little angry when she heard this, and was annoyed that the Queen Mother was too partial, so she added: "Your Majesty, it is human nature for Concubine Li Shu to care about her family, but Princess Xiao knew that Concubine Li Shu was pregnant but spoke rudely, causing the emperor's heir to be in danger. This

It’s a capital crime!”

"What the Queen said is wrong. Princess Xiao was brought into the palace by Concubine Li Shu on her own initiative. There is no enmity between the two of them. Smart people know that once something goes wrong, Princess Xiao will not be able to live with her."

The Queen Mother spoke for Chu Yunning, her eyes touched Emperor Mingwen's face, and said: "Right now, there is something wrong with the child in Concubine Li Shu's belly. Maybe there is a misunderstanding. The most important thing now is to save the emperor's heir!"

Emperor Mingwen glanced sideways at Chu Yunning: "

I will give you a chance to forgive your sin. If this child can be saved, I will forgive you. If you cannot save it..."

"Your Majesty, this is unfair!" The Queen Mother interrupted Emperor Mingwen anxiously.

Emperor Mingwen said: "Mother, it is a fact that Concubine Li Shu's fetal condition is unstable. It concerns the emperor's heir. Concubine Xiao cannot escape the relationship!"

After saying this, the Empress of the Palace immediately echoed: "Your Majesty is wise, and I believe that no mother in the world would risk her own child."

The Queen Mother could not refute these words and looked sad.

"As long as Concubine Li Shu's fetus is stable today, will this matter be over?" Chu Yunning asked.

Emperor Mingwen nodded: "A gentleman keeps his word."

In full view of everyone, she believed that Emperor Mingwen would not go back on his word.

So Chu Yunning took a deep breath: "Okay, I'll try my best."

"Ning'er!" The Queen Mother was shocked. She heard that the imperial doctor said that it was extremely difficult to save Concubine Li Shu's pregnancy and that the entire imperial hospital could not do anything. What could Chu Yun Ning do?

Seeing that the Queen Mother sincerely cared about her, Chu Yunning felt a warm feeling in her heart.

"Queen Mother, as long as Concubine Li Shu can keep her child safely and the royal family can continue, I am willing to give it a try!"

Chu Yunning said with awe-inspiring righteousness, got up and entered the screened inner hall next door.

Concubine Li Shu's lower body was bleeding profusely, and even the imperial doctor said that the child could no longer be saved.

Chu Yunning gritted her teeth and stepped forward, put her fingertips on Concubine Li Shu's wrist, and just found her pulse.

"What are you doing here? Do you want to frame me? Get out of here!"

Concubine Li Shu stared with sharp eyes and struggled to get up. Chu Yunning took out the silver needle and said: "You and I are like grasshoppers on a rope now. Not only are you in danger of protecting your child, but your own life is also in danger."

, why not calm down and let me try."

Concubine Li Shu was heartbroken as she listened to the doctors shaking their heads, concluding that her child could not be saved.

"What confidence do you have?"

Chu Yunning took out a silver needle and inserted it into an acupuncture point on Concubine Li Shu's lower body. The bleeding stopped in just a moment.

"You have no choice. If you cooperate with me, you may be able to save this child. If you continue to struggle, the gods will not be able to save you!"

Perhaps she was shocked by Chu Yunning's aura, so Concubine Li Shu shut up.

Chu Yunning took out the silver needle again and pierced Concubine Li Shu's various acupuncture points.

"Prepare ginseng slices for Concubine Li Shu and keep them in your mouth to maintain strength!" Chu Yunning ordered in a loud voice.

Soon the eunuch brought the best ginseng slices and put them into Concubine Li Shu's mouth.

Seeing that she had recovered a lot of energy, Chu Yunning immediately wrote down a prescription and asked the palace maid to cook it.

She continued to perform acupuncture on Concubine Li Shu and forcibly kept the fetus in her belly.

The process was also very difficult. Concubine Li Shu was sweating profusely in pain and gritted her teeth without making a sound.

After drinking several bowls of decoction, Concubine Li Shu's mood gradually calmed down.

Two hours later, Chu Yunning checked Concubine Li Shu's pulse again.

Fortunately, Concubine Li Shu showed no signs of miscarriage. Except for her weak pulse, everything else returned to normal.

Chu Yunning first breathed a sigh of relief, then gathered her emotions and walked out of the screen, saying to Emperor Mingwen: "Your Majesty, Concubine Li Shu's fetus has been saved."

Emperor Mingwen was shocked.

"How is this possible?" the Queen Palace blurted out. Then she realized that she had said the wrong thing, and San San explained: "I am just surprised that the whole hospital can't do anything. How could Princess Xiao cure Concubine Li Shu?"

Emperor Mingwen didn't believe it when he heard this, and winked at the imperial doctor.

The imperial doctor understood and went into the inner hall to check, and came out after a while: "Back to the emperor, Concubine Li Shu's fetus is definitely safe."

The Queen Mother was surprised and said: "Really?"

"It's absolutely true!" said the imperial physician.

"Bodhisattva bless you, Bodhisattva bless you!"

The Queen Mother clasped her hands together and kept mumbling, and then pulled Chu Yunning: "Fortunately, there is no danger, the little grandson of the Ai family is finally fine."

Emperor Mingwen also breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the chair for a long time without reacting.

Chu Yunning observed everyone's reactions. The Queen Mother was very pleased, Emperor Mingwen was happy, and the Queen had a disappointed expression.

During this period, the Queen of the Palace glared at her fiercely, as if she was blaming herself for meddling in her own business.

The Empress of the Palace said: "Your Majesty, although Concubine Li Shu was not in danger, Princess Xiao was so unbridled in the palace and almost caused a catastrophe. The death penalty can be avoided and the crime of life cannot be escaped. In order to appease the people's hearts, I beg the Emperor to punish Princess Xiao!"

"

Chu Yunning sneered: "I just stated in advance that if I save Concubine Li Shu's fetus, I will be exempted from punishment. Is the Empress forcing the Emperor to go back on her promise and be ridiculed by the world?"

The empress choked on her words and forgot about it in a hurry.

She looked at Emperor Mingwen anxiously, and Emperor Mingwen's eyes were a little cold. The empress of the palace was excited and immediately said: "Your Majesty, I didn't mean this. It was Princess Xiao who deliberately provoked me. I just thought that I could give a small punishment but a big punishment.

"

Emperor Mingwen raised his hand to stop the empress and said, "That's enough. I, a gentleman, will never go back on my words, so I will let this matter go."
