Reborn as the crippled king's favorite

Chapter 571: Someone wants to harm me and my child?

"It happened suddenly. I only heard the maid say that Wan'er stepped on water and fell in the garden. I haven't investigated the cause yet."

"She fell and had a miscarriage once before, so there's no way she'd make the same mistake again."

Lou Zixi nodded. He thought so too, so he suggested investigating the reason.

He knew better than anyone how much Sikong Wan cared about the baby in her belly.

But now is not the time to investigate. The most important thing is to let Sikong Wan give birth to the child safely.

Only when Sikong Wan and the child are safe can Lou Zixi spare some attention to do other things.

He walked quickly into the inner house. Doctor Zhai, Doctor Miao, and Senior Brother Cheng were all there, as well as two midwives.

Also standing by were Sikong Wan's parents, Lord Sikong and Madam Sikong.

Madam Sikong was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. When she saw Murong Jiu, she hurried over to greet her, and looked at her as if she had seen a life-saving straw.

Lord Sikong Fu also had a rare look of anxiety on his face.

Murong Jiu stopped them from saluting and immediately asked:
"Master, uncle, brother, what is Wan'er's current situation?"

"The head is up, the feet are down, the cervix is ​​dilated, there is bleeding and amniotic fluid, the situation is not good. We just tried to reverse the fetal position, but she is in too much pain, and the fetal pulse is weak. I am afraid that the umbilical cord is wrapped around her neck."

When Murong Jiu heard this, his expression darkened.

But along the way, she had already thought of a countermeasure.

"We can't do a caesarean section unless it's absolutely necessary, but if the situation is really dire, this is the only option."

She looked at Lou Zixi and said.

Lou Zixi pursed his lips and nodded, seemingly calm, but he had ridden all the way here without even bothering to tidy up his messy hair and clothes, which showed how anxious he was at the moment.

"There is another way, that is to use the Ghost Doctor's Thirteen Needles."

Doctor Zhai and Doctor Miao both looked at her.

Doctor Miao asked in shock, "Has your majesty already learned the Ghost Doctor's Thirteen Needles?"

This formation has long been lost.

Not long ago, someone dug out bamboo slips from the ground, and on them turned out to be the lost formation of the Ghost Doctor's Thirteen Needles. They were ecstatic, but the only drawback was that this set of acupuncture techniques was incomplete and had several gaps. They studied it for a long time and did complete it, but the reason why the acupuncture techniques were lost was naturally because they were too difficult.

And they are not sure that the stitches used to complete the surgery are absolutely correct.

Since they haven't learned it, they can't experiment with acupuncture techniques.

They couldn't learn it, in fact, a big reason was that they were both very old, and the Ghost Doctor's Thirteen Needles required sufficient energy to complete.

"I have learned it. Legend has it that this set of acupuncture can bring people back to life. Of course, it is not so mysterious, but at least it can strengthen the essence and blood and make the fetus's condition better. I can only give it a try first. When Wan'er's condition is better, I can reverse the fetal position again and deliver the baby in one go."

"That's the only way. You have to be extremely careful when you give the needle," Doctor Zhai warned.

"I will, Master."

Murong Jiu turned his head and looked at Lou Zixi.

"If even the Ghost Doctor's Thirteen Needles don't work, then we'll have to perform a caesarean section. I'll do the operation myself. Let the people below make all the preparations first, just in case."

"Okay, I believe in you, Your Majesty. Wan'er will definitely agree with me, too."

Murong Jiu picked up the medicine box and pushed the door open.

No one else came in, only Lou Zixi came in immediately after he finished giving instructions.

Because the more people there are, the less air circulation there is, which is not good.

The smell of blood is not too strong, which is fortunately.

After falling down, the bleeding was stopped by the master and others.

My water broke suddenly and it didn't keep flowing.

Sikong Wan's face turned pale. As soon as she saw Murong Jiu, she said, "My queen, please, you must save my child. I am willing to have a cesarean section, it's okay!" She heard that the baby in her belly was not in good condition. She was not afraid of death, but she was afraid that the child she had worked so hard to get would die in the womb.

"Awan! Things haven't come to that point yet! I won't allow you to lose heart!"

Lou Zixi went up and held Sikong Wan's hand. "The Queen is here. She will find a way to get our child out safely. Awan, don't worry or be pessimistic. Nothing will happen to you and the child."

Sikong Wan started to cry: "It's all my fault. I went to take a walk in the garden and stepped into a puddle..."

"Stop crying, Wan'er. If you keep crying, the baby in your belly will be deprived of oxygen. Your husband is right. Don't be pessimistic. I am here to help you. Let's work together to help you give birth to the baby safely."

"Yes, Awan, don't cry, relax, the queen will give you acupuncture, it's the lost ghost doctor's thirteen needles, it's very powerful."

"You have to cooperate with me, understand?"

When Sikong Wan heard that there was a way, she nodded quickly, "My Lady, I am not afraid of pain, please give me the injection."

Murong Jiu smiled and looked relaxed.

This made Sikong Wan feel much more relaxed.

Lou Zixi's eyes were filled with gratitude, and he did not dare to show the slightest bit of his anxiety and nervousness in front of Sikong Wan.

Murong Jiu disinfected the silver needle with high-proof alcohol, then asked Sikong Wan to lie down and began to give the acupuncture.

Although there are only thirteen needles, each one requires a great deal of mental effort and energy.

After all the needles were given, Sikong Wan found that her stomach didn't hurt as much anymore, and her complexion had regained a lot of vitality, no longer as pale as paper as before.

Murong Jiu did not stop at all.

She first felt the pulse of Sikong Wan and the fetus. When she heard the pulses becoming more and more stable, she asked someone to bring a bowl of chicken soup.

The chicken soup had been prepared long ago. Madam Sikong's voice came from outside the door: "Madam, do you want to add some ginseng slices to it?"

"No need, chicken soup will do."

Adding ginseng slices is because we are worried that the mother may be too weak to benefit from the supplement.

The chicken soup was served quickly.

Lou Zixi took it and took out the silver needle to try it first.

It’s no wonder that he is so careful even in his own house. It’s just that Sikong Wan’s fall was too strange, so he has to be careful in everything.

The silver needle did not change.

Just as Lou Zixi scooped up the water, blew it cold and gave it to Sikong Wan to drink, Murong Jiu's nose twitched and he whispered, "Wait!"

"My hand hurts a little, let me ask my master to come in for a moment."

Murong Jiu winked at Lou Zixi.

Lou Zixi immediately understood, put down the chicken soup, went out and called in Doctor Zhai.

Murong Jiu instructed the maids and midwives in the room to assign them other tasks to do and sent them all out.

As soon as Doctor Zhai came in, Murong Jiu brought the chicken soup for him to smell.

"It's saffron! A large dose!"

Doctor Zhai was suddenly shocked. No wonder everyone in the room had left.

Someone actually put saffron in the chicken soup, but it has been fished out. In addition, it was boiled for a long time, so if you don’t smell it carefully, you can hardly smell it.

Saffron has the effect of activating blood circulation, so it cannot be used by pregnant women and breastfeeding women.

With such a large dose, the other party wanted to make Sikong Wan die from hemorrhage.

So cruel!

Sikong Wan also looked shocked.

"Someone in the mansion wants to harm me and my child?"
