The adopted daughter returns with a new face

Lan Rufeng walked to the bedside and saw several palace maids standing by, as well as Ye Mei and a midwife in her forties who were helping Lan Ruyu deliver the baby. He threw the cloth bag on the small table next to him and started asking the midwife about Lan Ruyu's condition.

"Reporting to the Imperial Physician, the baby's head is still not completely in the basin. The Crown Princess may have to wait for a while longer." The midwife reported the situation truthfully.

"Was it the Crown Princess's amniotic fluid that broke first, or was it the bleeding that came first? When did it happen?" Lan Rufeng asked again.

"The amniotic fluid broke first, and it's been four hours since the onset." The midwife reported truthfully.

"It's been eight hours, and they just told her. It seems they still don't trust her." Lan Rufeng smiled bitterly and walked forward. He reached out through the bed curtain to feel Lan Ruyu's pulse. After the feeling, he said directly to the mother-in-law: "Pull open the curtain, remove the quilt on the Crown Princess, cover your lower body, and I will assist the Crown Princess in childbirth."

"Mr. Lan, this is inappropriate." Ye Mei hurriedly stopped Lan Rufeng's rude behavior.

"Madame Ye, this concerns the safety of the Crown Princess and the child. I hope that Madame Ye can understand the situation. If we delay any further, I will not be able to guarantee the safety of the Crown Princess and the child." Lan Rufeng said as he turned around, took out a medicine bottle from the cloth bag, poured out two pills and walked back to the bed.

Chu Jianfeng quickly advised: "Madam Ye, the Crown Princess and the heir are important, please open the curtain quickly."

"Okay!" Ye Mei agreed, and quickly asked the palace maid to come in and tidy up the young master. She pulled the curtain open and stepped aside to watch. Looking at the Crown Princess lying on the bed, sweating profusely and looking pale in pain, she was really worried.

"Princess, bear with it. Open your mouth and spit out the pill. It will relieve your pain." Lan Rufeng stepped forward and asked Lan Ruyu to endure the pain and open her mouth to feed her the medicine.

Lan Ruyu endured the tearing pain in her lower body, opened her mouth and asked Lan Rufeng to feed her the medicine, biting her lip and looking at him.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. Sorry for offending you." Lan Rufeng smiled at Lan Ruyu and reached out to touch her belly. Feeling the head of the fetus, he gathered his internal energy in his palms and slowly moved the fetus towards Lan Ruyu's belly.

"Ah..." Lan Ruyu screamed in pain and grabbed the mattress tightly with both hands, which frightened everyone. They all stared at the movements of Lan Rufeng's hands. They were shocked to see that his palms were emitting a stream of air.

Chu Jianfeng was stunned. It was the first time he had seen such a rib-abortion technique. His bright eyes stared at the movements of Lan Rufeng's hands.

"The head is coming out, the head is coming out." The midwife lay between the Crown Princess' legs, shouting in surprise as she saw the baby's head appear. Soon she saw the baby was born, and she was so happy that she quickly picked up the baby and patted his butt.

The baby's cries of "wa wa" echoed throughout the East Palace and made the people anxiously waiting outside the door overjoyed. Lan Ruyun couldn't contain her excitement and held her mother's hand tightly.

"Congratulations! The Crown Princess is born a little prince." Ye Mei held the little master in her arms and congratulated her.

Lan Rufeng closed his palm and looked at Lan Ruyu, who had already exhausted all her strength and smiled weakly on the bed, and said: "Princess, please have a good rest. I will prescribe medicine for you."

"Thank you, Young Master Lan." A tear slid down Lan Ruyu's eye. Because the Queen didn't believe him, she and her child had suffered for so long and almost got into trouble. Fortunately, he arrived in time.

"It's my duty. Tears hurt your eyes. You should be happy." Lan Rufeng softened his heart and comforted Lan Ruyu. He turned around and reached out to pull Chu Jianfeng, picked up his small cloth bag and sat down at the table outside, asking him to take out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone for him to use.

The midwife and several palace maids cleaned up the Crown Princess's body and helped her change her clothes despite her weakness. Then she and Ye Mei carried the young master out of the inner room, went to the outer hall, opened the door, and congratulated the Emperor and others who were waiting outside.

Everyone was overjoyed to hear that it was a son. The queen took her grandson in her arms. The prince took one look at his son and helped his mother to the throne. He and his brother went into the inner room to see his wife. Seeing her pale and weak face, he was so distressed that he apologized: "Crown Princess, I'm sorry."

"Your Highness, I'm fine. Thank you, Young Master Lan." Lan Ruyu comforted her guilty husband. The queen didn't believe that Lan Rufeng didn't ask someone to call him. If her husband hadn't forced someone to leave the palace to inform his mother and others, she and her child would have been in danger.

The queen came in holding her grandson and the emperor. After hearing what her daughter-in-law said, she apologized with guilt: "Crown Princess, it was my mother's shortsightedness that almost harmed you and the child. I'm sorry. I will respect your and the prince's decisions in the future."

"I am also at fault. The Crown Princess is in poor health. You should take your medicine and rest. I will reward Young Master Lan handsomely." The emperor felt guilty for listening to the Queen's one-sided words and not believing Lan Rufeng.

"Princess Consort, please take a rest. The Queen Mother has asked someone to take care of the child first. She will look after you once you have recovered." The Queen said with a smile.

"Ruyu, have a good rest. We won't disturb you. When you feel better, mother will come to the palace to see you." Lin Ruyan said reluctantly. The queen had already told her about her daughter's matter and apologized. Just because Lan Rufeng's words were unreliable, she didn't trust him and almost harmed her daughter and grandson.

Lan Ruyu smiled weakly at her mother and brother, glanced at her husband, and slowly closed her eyes to rest. She was too tired, and the medicine Lan Rufeng gave her did have a pain-relieving effect.

Lan Rufeng wrote the prescription, threw it to Chu Jianfeng and said, "I'll trouble Doctor Chu to take care of the Crown Princess from now on."

"Don't worry, Master Lan. The Imperial Hospital will take good care of the Crown Princess." Chu Jianfeng took Lan Rufeng's prescription and agreed as he looked at it.

"Mr. Lan, please follow me to the imperial study." The emperor said as he walked out. Lan Rufeng picked up his cloth bag and followed Lin Ruyan and her son out behind the emperor.

"This prescription is very good." Chu Jianfeng praised, picked up the medicine box and said goodbye to the Queen, then came out to ask the imperial doctors to return to the Imperial Hospital.

The queen ordered the palace maid to report the good news to the empress dowager, and told her son, Chunxia, ​​and the midwife to take good care of Lan Ruyu. Then she carried her grandson out of the East Palace, hurried back to the palace, and asked the wet nurse to come to feed him and wash his body.

Lan Rufeng and the others followed the emperor to the imperial study and sat down without any hesitation.

When Lin Ruyan and her son saw Lan Rufeng being so rude, they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for him.

The emperor saw that this kid had no manners and was not polite, but he was not angry. Instead, he admired his courage. He sat down and motioned Lin Ruyan and her son to sit down, and then he asked: "Master Lan is so young, but his medical skills are so amazing. I am really impressed."

“Your Majesty, there is no conflict between age and medical skills. I have been learning medicine from my master since I was a child. After more than ten years, I can be considered an expert in the field.” Lan Rufeng replied calmly.

"The prince told me that your medical treatment is very expensive. Tell me, what do you want? Just tell me if it's gold, silver or treasures. I will naturally reward you with whatever I have." asked the emperor.

"I am just a small-time gangster. If the emperor rewards me with gold, silver, and jewelry, I can't move them, and I have no place to put them. However, the emperor can reward me with some travel expenses." Lan Rufeng said with a faint smile.

"Is that all you ask?" The emperor was somewhat surprised by Lan Rufeng's answer.

"I cure illnesses and save lives at random. If I meet someone who is destined to be with me, I will naturally save him. If not, I will not care about him. So Your Majesty, please give me some travel expenses. It doesn't have to be too much. A few thousand taels will be enough." Lan Rufeng was not polite at all.

"This is all you ask for. Don't you want me to grant you a thousand acres of fertile land? A thousand taels of gold as a reward, or a mansion, would not be too much." The emperor was quite surprised that Lan Rufeng's request was so simple.

"No, no, the South has beautiful mountains and rivers, and I haven't appreciated them all. I don't know how to farm, and money is something outside of my body, so it's enough for me. Not to mention a mansion. I like freedom and don't like constraints, so I won't stay in one place for too long." Lan Rufeng directly rejected the emperor's temptation.
