The beloved baby has a space
Chapter 558 Double Stun
Empress Qin's poor health was no secret in the palace. Many years ago, she gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, but the prince died at birth, leaving only a sickly princess.
The Director of the Imperial Observatory once said that the princess was of delicate constitution, while the empress was of inestimable strength. If the mother and daughter were to get too close, their lives might be in danger.
At that time, the Empress fell into a coma, so Emperor Minghua took it upon himself to send the princess to be raised elsewhere.
To prevent the Empress from suffering misfortune, all her relatives were instructed to address her as "cousin" or "aunt." Therefore, all the younger members of the Yongguo Duke's Mansion, whether they called her "aunt" or "auntie," addressed her as "cousin" or "auntie."
After Empress Qin awoke, she learned that one of her two children had died and the other had been sent to an unknown place by Emperor Minghua. The already strained relationship between the couple completely broke down.
This disturbance lasted for fourteen years.
Emperor Minghua did not know Qin Huai. He was the child who was originally reported to have died young and had been buried in the ground for two days and two nights.
Empress Qin went mad and dug up the grave, took the person out of the small coffin, and went to the Duke of Yong's mansion overnight.
She washed and cleaned Xiao Qin Huai again and again, and the child, whose face was originally bluish-purple, actually gradually lost his terrifying skin color and showed some whiteness.
Empress Qin held him day and night, humming tunes and ignoring everyone else, and washed her body with precious medicinal herbs every day.
She even believed in an old doctor's folk remedy, cutting her wrists every day to draw blood, taking a cupful at a time, to light a life-giving fire for the baby.
Just one month later, she miraculously saved the child.
Qin Huai was born with a formal name. Qin Huai was the name she had chosen, and she added the character "You" (佑) in the middle of the child's name to bless him so that he could grow up safely and smoothly.
And so, the child was raised.
As for the princess who was released to be raised, Empress Qin had sent people to search for her. She had originally been given to the second wife of a prominent family, but the child died when she was only five years old.
But outwardly, she found another child of similar age, still using the title of princess to raise her carefully, just to lull those behind her into a false sense of security.
Now, it's time for the "princess" to return to the royal family.
Qin Huai's identity, however, became the reason for a new dispute between the emperor and empress.
Emperor Minghua once summoned Qin Huai, and later heard that the Empress had removed him from the list of candidates for the imperial examination. He then realized that the Empress Qin, who had always been unwilling to admit defeat, wanted to set her child free.
However, Emperor Minghua read Qin Huai's article and found it to be sharp yet lenient, serious yet warm. Qin Huai was only nine years old at the time, yet he had such insight. With a little nurturing in the future, he would surely become a wise ruler.
Emperor Minghua was a diligent and dedicated ruler; how could he possibly miss out on such a talented individual?
Moreover, he is the Empress's child, and should rightfully be the Crown Prince.
Before the two could decide a winner, Qin Huai and the others were filled with good news, with many stories of success spreading during their study tour.
Emperor Minghua was pleased and proud.
He was finally about to welcome his son back, and all he wanted was to see him properly and give him another push toward the position of crown prince.
Unexpectedly, Empress Qin refused vehemently and then offered him the title of a wealthy prince.
Before this uproar was over, Empress Qin fell ill and remained bedridden for three months. The imperial physicians even said that Empress Qin might not live past the end of the year.
Emperor Minghua then became anxious.
"Go and investigate who is behind this," Emperor Minghua said to his guards. "This matter need not be kept strictly secret. Inform me of everything you find out. Anyone who dares to obstruct you will be executed without mercy!"
"Yes!"
He has been a benevolent ruler for too long, and some people may have forgotten that he also emerged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. The peace and tranquility of this great Chang kingdom was built by him and his people with their lives.
If he can't even protect his beloved wife, he might as well give up the title of benevolent ruler! After the guards left, Emperor Minghua summoned his trusted eunuch: "Did you find out who the little miracle doctor I asked you to investigate is?"
Upon learning of Empress Qin's serious illness, Emperor Minghua sent people to search for renowned doctors in various regions, and the doctor found in Baihua County was the most reliable.
It is said that they saved the young master of the Murong family who was on the verge of death.
The Murong family kept their mouths shut and never revealed in detail which little miracle doctor it was, but the news that Murong Run of the Murong family was suffering from multiple deadly poisons still leaked out.
If we can save someone like that, we can certainly have him treat the Empress.
"Your Majesty, according to our investigation, the young physician left Baihua County soon after. He appeared in the Yongchang City area and helped prevent the spread of the plague. After that, he disappeared without a trace. I have heard that there are also reports in Wangbei County. I have sent people to verify this and we should know the answer by the end of the month."
Emperor Minghua waved his hand: "Yes, as soon as possible."
He was afraid the Empress wouldn't be able to wait.
After returning to the council hall and dealing with the memorials, Emperor Minghua was still restless. He couldn't help but call over a eunuch and have someone send a letter to the prefectural city.
We need to see if their son has returned. If he has, we should bring him to the Empress.
If the Empress sees this, perhaps her illness will be cured.
Even if you don't get better immediately, improving your mood is ultimately beneficial to your health.
"Is Consort Jing's hometown also in Baihua County?" Emperor Minghua suddenly remembered that Consort Jing was the daughter of Grand Tutor Qiu, and Grand Tutor Qiu's other daughter was from the Murong family, a royal merchant family. "Summon Consort Jing to see me!"
While the emperor was actively searching for a miracle doctor, the "little miracle doctor" Ayu was squatting in the sheepfold, her eyes tense, her hands clenched into fists, staring intently ahead.
"Ayu, don't you know that girls shouldn't look at things that are improper?" Wang Liulang walked in from outside the courtyard and saw Wang Wulang squatting beside him. He slapped him on the back. "Fifth Brother, why are you getting involved? What's so interesting about a ewe giving birth?"
The lamb couple had another child, and Ayu was fortunate enough to be born.
The lambs born to the lamb couple in front are now very smart and lively. They are very attached to their own family members, but are very indifferent and even fierce towards strangers. Everyone has been raising them as guard animals.
"Ah, it's born! It's born!" Ayu didn't care what they were saying. Her eyes widened as she saw the ewe give birth to a little lamb.
Then, three more lambs were born. The three little lambs wobbled but quickly stood up, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Ayu gained a new experience and couldn't wait to share it with Qin Huai.
“Brother Ayou, childbirth is really scary! I remember Mother said that childbirth is like passing through the gates of hell, and you could lose your life if you’re not careful. That’s why all mothers in the world are respectable.”
Normally, Qin Huai would have refuted Ayu's words, telling her that some parents are parents, while others don't care about their children's future at all. But seeing Ayu's serious expression, he nodded in agreement.
Almost the instant he nodded, he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, followed by a dense, throbbing pain.
"Brother Ayou, what's wrong?" Before Ayu could finish speaking, she saw Qin Huai clutching his chest. In the time it took for her to ask a question, Qin Huai had already collapsed to the ground with a "thud".
"Brother Ayou!" Ayu was terrified. Even though Chijia and the others were there, they couldn't catch him in time.
At the moment Qin Huai fainted, Empress Qin, far away in the palace of Wanning City, suddenly vomited a mouthful of black blood while drinking her medicine.
"Your Majesty!" Hua Hong dropped the medicine bowl she was holding. She didn't care about anything else and rushed to Empress Qin.
At this moment, Empress Qin was exhaling more than inhaling.
[Baby, hurry and do the mission, rescue people, quick!]
