Unexpectedly, when the two of them were about to set off on their own journeys, Silver Snake Man sent Sihua to tell her that Xiaolan was about to give birth and that he had brought Xiaolan to Lin'an from Dali.
Qin Shaobai was overjoyed and showed Zhao Bai the key and the portrait he had seen at Plum Blossom Villa.
Zhao Bai looked at the portrait with a strange light in his eyes.
"Shaobai, with your understanding of history, do you know who the next sage king of the Song Dynasty will be?"
Qin Shaobai laughed dumbly.
Even if he knew it, he couldn't tell Zhao Bai.
He doesn't want to be punished by God for interfering with the course of history.
"I think this kid can achieve great things in the future. Maybe he will be..."
Zhao Bai did not continue speaking, but everyone could hear the implication behind his words.
Since Xiaolan is about to give birth, they cannot both be in Lin'an.
The two discussed it and decided that the trip to the Kingdom of Jin was not that important, and they should wait until Xiaolan's child was born.
Zhao Bai went to Mongolia, and Qin Shaobai stayed at home to take care of Xiaolan.
"If I were in the General's Mansion, Xiaolan would feel awkward living there. It's better to wait until the child is born and the three of us can properly resolve the issues between us."
Zhao Bai said this before leaving.
Qin Shaobai could only smile bitterly after hearing this.
He doesn't even know how to solve the problems between the three of them now.
You can't let Zhao Bai divorce Xiaolan and then let Xiaolan marry him.
Forget it, let’s wait until the child is born to think about such a mental thing.
Not long after, Xiaolan returned to the General's Mansion.
Qin Shaobai sent Wuchen to take full care of Xiaolan.
Once Wuchen has medical skills, if Xiaolan feels uncomfortable, Wuchen can treat her in time.
Secondly, Wuchen is considered to be the person with the strongest martial arts skills around him, so he should be more than enough to protect Xiaolan.
Of course he had some concerns.
Shi Miyuan's relationship with Wuchen seems to have improved a lot recently.
If Shi Miyuan knew the relationship between this child and the treasure, he didn't know what Shi Miyuan would do.
On the morning of the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month, Xiaolan suddenly had unbearable abdominal pain and even had symptoms of redness.
The midwife who had been arranged long ago sent someone to inform Qin Shaobai that the general's wife might give birth at any time.
Qin Shaobai was talking to Song Ningzong about the situation in Jinmeng at that time. When he heard this, he hurried to the general's mansion.
Qin Shaobai was so anxious that Song Ningzong found it a little baffling.
He simply used the excuse to go see this imperial sister and actually showed up to the general's palace.
As soon as he arrived at the General's Mansion, Song Ningzong discovered that his imperial sister was really quite proud.
The child hasn't even been born yet, and people in the world have already sent congratulatory gifts.
Because of the taboo on having children, these evil-minded people were all stopped outside the courtyard by Wuchen's people.
It was like a market outside the General's Mansion, it was really lively.
Song Ningzong paid a private visit incognito, but was blocked by Wuchen.
By the time Qin Shaobai arrived in a hurry, Song Ningzong had already been standing outside for more than half an hour.
Qin Shaobai welcomed Song Ningzong into the courtyard, arranged for him to sit in a secluded pavilion in the courtyard, and asked Wuchen to bring tea.
Song Ningzong saw that although Qin Shaobai was sitting here drinking tea with him, his eyes were drifting away.
At this time, the backyard room was extremely tense.
The child actually looks at his feet first and then his head.
And the head was still wrapped with an umbilical cord.
Xiaolan bit her ginseng slice tightly and tried to inhale, exhale, and exert force under the guidance of the midwife.
But the child just didn't want to come out.
The midwife's face was already covered with sweat.
Pot after pot of bloody water was poured.
Xiaolan's breathing became weaker and weaker.
"Has the general come back?"
Seeing Wuchen shaking his head, the midwife could only ask softly: "Who can make the decision in the house now?"
Wuchen was surprised: "Is there any problem with Madam?"
"Now I can only ask the people in charge of the house to make a decision, whether to protect the elder or the younger."
"Both of them need to be protected."
Wuchen said, holding the long sword in his hand and pressing it against the midwife's neck.
"Girl, you just want to kill me, that's what I said. Madam has no strength anymore. If she continues like this, she will only be stillborn, and she will also bleed to death."
When Wuchen heard this, he was so frightened that he threw away his sword and rushed out.
Qin Shaobai was drinking tea with Song Ningzong. When he saw Wuchen rushing in in such a hurry, he knew something was wrong and hurriedly went to greet him.
"Your Majesty, Madam, Madam is going to die."
Qin Shaobai glared at her fiercely: "What nonsense are you talking about? Tell me quickly, what is going on?"
"The baby can't come out now. The midwife said she can only see the baby's feet but not the baby's head."
"This situation is normal. Why are you shouting about whether you will die or not?"
"Also, there is a child whose umbilical cord is wrapped around his neck."
Qin Shaobai's face turned pale.
The umbilical cord wrapped around the neck, not only in the Southern Song Dynasty when medicine was extremely backward, but also in modern times hundreds of years later, is also the enemy of women during childbirth.
"Quick, go and invite Mr. Song here."
Song Ci was quickly invited.
"What, you want me to open up Xiaolan's belly and take the baby?"
Song Ci couldn't believe it.
"Sixth Prince, you have to think clearly, this knife of mine has only been used to dissect dead bodies."
"It's okay, just do it boldly."
Qin Shaobai said to Wuchen again: "Take some hemp and let it fall into a coma."
Everyone wanted to object, but a little girl rushed out of the room.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Madam, Madam is dying. The midwife wants you to make a decision quickly."
"Master Song, you can do it."
Qin Shaobai patted Song Ci on the shoulder, "Whether Xiaolan and the child can survive depends on you."
When the midwife saw Song Ci coming in, she got angry.
Qin Shaobai had asked Wuchen to pull the midwife out.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this is the general's wife, you can't do this."
"Knocked her unconscious."
When Wuchen heard this, he cut his hand downwards, and the midwife's body immediately softened and she fell down.
Song Ci has already sterilized the scalpel.
"Master Song, you want to save my child. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, save me...my child."
Xiaolan held Song Ci's hand, exhausted her last bit of strength, and passed out under the influence of Ma Fei San.
Song Ci held the sharp knife in his hand, his hands trembling.
"It's okay, just go and do the surgery to get the baby, and I will do the other things."
Song Ci nodded, finally raised his hand, and started to cut into Xiaolan's abdomen.
As expected, the umbilical cord was wrapped around the child's head. Song Ci picked up the scissors and cut off the umbilical cord, then quickly took the child out.
"Give me the needle money quickly."
Wuchen handed over the needle and thread.
Song Ci quickly helped Xiaolan sew up her abdomen.
After tying the knot and cutting off the thread, Song Ci realized that her face was covered with sweat.
He raised his head and looked at Qin Shaobai.
Qin Shaobai was holding Xiaolan's head and feeding Xiaolan to drink ginseng water little by little.
