Chapter 50 The Princess' Death
Chapter 52 The Queen's Death
Qiao Jiu quickly came to the small courtyard that he and the princess rented, and walked outside the door of the princess' room. He hesitated for a moment, opened the door and walked in, only then heard the princess's low moan from the inner room , he hurried in.

Seeing the princess lying on the bed curled up, holding the corner of the quilt with both hands, her face was already covered with sweat.

Qiao Jiu nervously walked to her bed, knelt down, and asked, "You...!"

The concubine opened her eyes slightly and said, "My child, the child is about to be born! Qiao Jiu, where is helping Ling? Go and call the midwife!"

Qiao Jiu repeated in a panic: "Get the midwife! Good! I'll go right away!"

At this time Li Hongwen, Qiao Yiyi and Chunling also rushed to the courtyard.

Just bumping into Qiao Jiu at the door of the room, "Master Qiao, the prince has already gone to invite the midwife! You don't need to go!" After finishing speaking, Chunling rushed to the princess's bed, lay down beside the bed and said, "Ma'am, the midwife will be here soon." Come on, hold on! You see, the prince and the eldest young lady are coming to see you too!"

The princess endured the pain and looked at Li Hongwen and Qiao Yiyi, smiled at them slightly, and closed her eyes weakly.

Qiao Yiyi patted Qiao Jiu on the shoulder to comfort him.

At this moment, Li Hongwen overturned the five-flavored bottle in his heart.He couldn't help thinking about whether Zhang Biyun gave birth to Bao'er a few years ago, was it the same as the princess at this time, was it so painful?I really owe her too much!Seeing the woman he loved so much suffering so much for another man, he felt an urge to wipe the blood, so he hurriedly stabilized his mind.I pray for the peace of the princess in my heart.

After a while, the midwife came, "Oh! Why are you standing here, go out!" After checking the fetal position in a hurry, she asked Chun Ling to prepare hot water, and Qiao Yiyi was on the side to help.

Not long after, the persistent mother-in-law was already sweating profusely. She wiped the sweat off her brow and shook her head. "No! This will be dangerous!"

"Auntie, what's the danger?" Qiao Yiyi asked nervously.

"Let me try again! Go tell them to call the doctor quickly, hurry up!"

Qiao Yiyi ran outside the room and told Li Hongwen that Li Hongwen and Qiao Jiu became even more nervous.

At this time, the guard brought the last doctor in the capital to the small courtyard.

The doctor took the princess's pulse through the curtain and fumbled to seal her air veins with silver needles. With the efforts of the midwife, "Wow!" A loud cry came from the room, and everyone inside and outside the room breathed a sigh of relief. .

"It's not good! Ma'am is bleeding!" the midwife yelled.

Li Hongwen and Qiao Jiu rushed out of the room, only to see the princess lying on the bed with a pale face, with blood gushing from the mattress under her body.

"Xinyan!" Li Hongwen leaned over and held her hand.

Qiao Jiu grabbed the doctor's shoulder and asked, "Doctor, what's the matter with Madam now!" The doctor shook his head with a look of impatience.

Qiao Yiyi held back her tears, gently placed the wrapped baby beside the princess, and said, "Xinyan, look! It's a daughter! She's very beautiful!" After she finished speaking, she turned around and covered her mouth and cried!Chun Ling kept wiping away her tears with both hands.

"Brother Wen!" The princess opened her eyes and looked at Li Hongwen with a slight smile.

Li Hongwen held back his tears and said: "Xinyan, you have to be tough, and for the sake of your child, you have to live well!"

The princess shook her head and said, "I'm too tired! I want to rest, Brother Wen, I'm sorry!"

Li Hongwen stroked the hair on her face and said, "Silly girl, it's over! Don't say sorry to me!"

The princess looked at Qiao Jiu who was walking over, and said, "Qiao Jiu, I have no regrets or complaints! You are a good person. Take good care of our daughter in the future."

Qiao Jiu knelt beside the bed, looked at the princess and said, "I'm sorry!" Tears welled up in the princess's eyes.

The princess turned to look at the baby beside her, and said, "My child!" She turned sideways, and Qiao Jiu held her hand, and put her hand on her daughter's little face.The princess smiled and lay down slowly, closing her eyes.

Because Qiao Jiu and the concubine were not married yet, Li Hongwen, taking into account the face of the concubine's natal family, won the consent of Qiao Jiu and Qiao Yiyi to prepare for the funeral in the Hunan palace as the concubine of Xiang and inform the concubine's family.Li Hongwen went up to play the emperor to take Bao'er back to the mansion to observe his filial piety.

Hearing the news of the princess' passing away, Gu Yidie was very sad.

In the afternoon, she and Bao'er returned to Xiangwang Mansion. Looking at the gate of Baixiang Wangfu, Gu Yidie felt very uncomfortable. She didn't expect to step here again because of the death of the princess.

Gu Yidie sighed softly.

Bao'er glanced at her, leaned against her side and subconsciously grasped her hand tightly.

Gu Yidie looked down at the nervous Bao'er, then squatted down and hugged Bao'er.

Zhang Yunyang had been waiting for them at the gate, seeing that Gu Yidie and Bao'er had not walked towards the palace after getting off the car, he strode over.

"Brother!" Gu Yidie stood up and held Bao'er's hand, looking at Zhang Yunyang.

"Little...brother," Zhang Yunyang felt that Gu Yidie and Bao'er didn't want to enter the palace, he paused, and said, "Go in quickly! The prince is waiting!" Zhang Yunyang gently picked up Bao'er and asked: "Does Bao'er miss Uncle?"

Bao'er nodded and lay on his shoulder, lacking energy.

"What's the matter! Isn't Bao'er sick?" Zhang Yunyang asked Gu Yidie worriedly.

"Brother, don't worry! Bao'er is in a bad mood, let's go!" Gu Yidie said, looking at the gate of the palace, Zhang Yunyang looked at Bao'er worriedly, and said nothing.

All the way into the mourning hall, the deacons put on filial faces for Bao'er and Gu Yidie, and explained to Gu Yidie what Bao'er was going to do, and Gu Yidie remembered them all in his heart.

Li Hongwen listened to the guard's report that Bao'er had returned to the palace, he hurriedly put down his work and came to the mourning hall.

Bao'er saw that he leaned towards Gu Yidie instead, and when Li Hongwen approached, he called out: "Father!"

"En!" Li Hongwen smiled, stroked Bao'er's head, and looked at Gu Yidie.

"Gu Yi, I have met the prince!" Gu Yidie saluted.

Li Hongwen stretched out his hand to support her, and said: "Mr. You Lao has been taking care of Bao'er! If you don't dislike it, you will regard the palace as your own home. This king sincerely asks you to stay!" His voice was not loud, but every sentence was deep into the ears of those present.Everyone stared at Gu Yidie blankly.

"This!" Gu Yidie didn't want to agree, but this was the only way to do it!
"Thank you for your great love, Gu Yi must think carefully!" Li Hongwen stared at Gu Yidie who was downcast.

The mourning hall suddenly fell silent.Everyone wondered curiously why the prince treated this bearded guard so courteously, and became worried about him.

After a while, Li Hongwen looked down at Bao'er and said, "Bao'er wants to help daddy, so I rely on you!" Baoer looked at the two of them half understanding.
