Yun Chuwei stood up almost immediately and hurried out.

After leaving the main hall, she asked Huo Qingjue who was following her: "What's going on?"

Huo Qingjue whispered, "The little grandson and granddaughter have been born safely, but Miss Cui is in a very bad condition. She seems to be bleeding and can't stop. The entire Imperial Hospital is helpless. I'm afraid she is in great danger. Miss Cui wants to see you!"

Yun Chuwei's face was pale. She lowered her head and didn't say anything, but her feet moved faster.

Soon, Yun Chuwei arrived at the East Palace.

At the door of the delivery room, she saw Xie Xin with a worried look on her face.

She said nothing and walked into the delivery room.

As soon as I entered the door, the smell of blood hit me.

At this time, Cui Yuetuan was lying on the bed with a pale face. He didn't look like a living person, but more like a lifeless rag doll.

Several anxious doctors and midwives were standing by the bed, speaking in low but hurried voices, trying to stop Cui Yuetuan's bleeding.

However, there was no effect.

Yun Chuwei didn't expect that Jiang Wanqiu was also among them.

Jiang Wanqiu's face was full of fatigue, his eyes were red and bloodshot, and it was obvious that he had been up for a long time.

Yun Chuwei looked at Jiang Wanqiu with questioning eyes.

Jiang Wanqiu has married Cui Yuetuan's sister and is considered Cui Yuetuan's brother-in-law.

In fact, no one wanted Cui Yuetuan to be alive more than him.

But when faced with Yun Chuwei's inquiring gaze, he could only sigh in his heart, and then shook his head at Yun Chuwei.

Seeing Jiang Wanqiu's appearance, Yun Chuwei knew that Cui Yutuan might not be able to hold on this time.

If there was even half a chance, Jiang Wanqiu wouldn't be like this.

Cui Yutuan seemed to realize that Yun Chuwei was coming, and spoke in a low voice, his breath barely emitting.

“Weiwei…Weiwei…”

As she shouted, she stretched out a hand with difficulty.

Yun Chuwei took a few steps forward, sat down beside the bed, reached out and held Cui Yutuan's hand.

Her hands were thin and soft, but now they were icy cold, with almost no temperature and no strength at all.

"I'm here!" Yun Chuwei said in a low voice.

Cui Yuetuan stared at Yun Chuwei with wide eyes and whispered, "Weiwei, I'm dying! From now on... I may never be able to eat with you again... and I won't have the chance to drink with you either. From now on, every Qingming Festival, you will bring wine to see me, okay?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Yun Chu said in a gentle voice.

"Promise me! Okay?" Cui Yutuan said stubbornly.

"Okay, I promise you!" Yun Chuwei's voice was a little hoarse, and his eyes were a little red.

Cui Yutuan seemed satisfied. She pulled the corners of her pale mouth and smiled.

Soon, she said again: "Children...children...show me them..."

Yun Chuwei heard this and said to the person next to her: "Bring the child here!"

After hearing this, the two midwives immediately went to the next room and soon came back with a baby in their arms.

They stood beside the bed, half squatting, and showed the child to Yun Chuwei and Cui Yuetuan.

Both children were wrinkled and not very good looking.

But Cui Yuetuan showed a satisfied smile.

She held Yun Chuwei's hand with all her strength and said, "Please take good care of them for me. Don't let anyone bully them. Let them live well?"

Yun Chu nodded slightly: "Yes, as long as I live one day, I will not let them be bullied."

After hearing Yun Chuwei's assurance, Cui Yuetuan's bleak smile became a little softer and more peaceful.

She said vaguely: "Weiwei, I'm so sleepy, I'll take a nap first. I..."

As she spoke, she closed her eyes and her hands went limp.

Yun Chuwei subconsciously clenched her hand.

Jiang Wanqiu rushed over, took Cui Yuetuan's hand from Yun Chuwei, and took Cui Yuetuan's pulse.

His face became increasingly ugly, because he clearly felt Cui Yuetuan's pulse go from weak to nonexistent, and finally disappear completely.

He pressed his trembling hands on Cui Yutuan's neck.

The pulse there also completely disappeared.

The coldness from Cui Yutuan spread through his fingertips.

As an imperial physician, Jiang Wanqiu is actually used to seeing life and death.

But at this moment, he could no longer hold back, and tears rolled down from his eyes, one by one, and fell to the ground.

"What should I do? What should I do?" he murmured in a low voice, full of fear.

This was his wife's sister, but he couldn't save her and could only watch her die.

When he returns, how will he explain this to his wife? How will he explain this to the Cui family?

Why would God do such a thing?

Jiang Wanqiu's tears fell harder and harder, and her body became a little unstable.

The imperial doctors behind them also knew the relationship between Jiang Wanqiu and Cui Yuetuan. They stepped forward, supported Jiang Wanqiu, and took him aside.

"Doctor Jiang, please accept my condolences!" Someone whispered to Jiang Wanqiu.

Jiang Wanqiu said nothing, just shed tears silently.

Cui Yuetuan married into the Eastern Palace so that he and his wife could stay together forever. Now that she has ended up like this, how can he mourn? How can he mourn?

The chief judge of the Imperial Medical Bureau stepped forward, stood at Jiang Wanqiu's original position, and began to check Cui Yuetuan's condition.

Finally, he announced in a low voice: "The former Crown Princess has passed away."

After saying that, he turned his head and gave Yun Chuwei some advice.

"Miss Yun, please accept my condolences!"

Yun Chuwei looked at Cui Yutuan who was lying quietly, and suddenly asked: "Is this an accident, or did someone do it on purpose?"

The elderly judge was slightly startled when he heard this, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond.

However, Jiang Wanqiu understood what Yun Chuwei meant.

He had always been with Yun Chuwei and was very familiar with Yun Chuwei's behavior habits.

He knew very well that the reason Yun Chuwei asked this question was because she had a suspect.

Jiang Wanqiu quickly wiped away her tears, took two steps forward, and asked Yun Chuwei, "Miss, do you suspect someone has harmed Cui Yuetuan?"

Yun Chu was silent, and the image of Yun Qianming appeared in his mind.

When she was having dinner with Cui Yutuan before, she had an uncomfortable feeling when she saw Yun Qianming.

She also reminded Cui Yuetuan at that time.

However, Cui Yutuan's surroundings were indeed like an iron barrel. Logically speaking, even if Yun Qianming wanted to do so, he would not be able to succeed.

But now, something like this has happened, and the uncomfortable feeling I had that day has resurfaced.

She whispered to Jiang Wanqiu, "If someone really tampered with it, can it be detected?"

Jiang Wanqiu was silent for a moment before he said, "Check her clothing, food, shelter, and transportation, as well as her blood, limbs, and internal organs. If anyone has tampered with her, we will definitely be able to find out. However, all of this requires the consent of His Majesty and the Cui family..."

Yun Chuwei stood up, looked at the lifeless man lying on the bed, and said firmly: "Investigate! No matter what, we must find out the truth! Leave the matter to His Majesty!"

After saying this, she turned around and looked at the two babies in swaddling clothes.

Both babies had their eyes closed, but they were not at peace.

They seemed to be whimpering and making some meaningless sounds, like crying, or like they were confused and uneasy.

She whispered, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you from now on!"

After saying that, she glanced at the two people holding the children and said, "Take them back."

After hearing this, the midwife quickly agreed and left with the baby.
