The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Fortunately, winter clothes are thick.

Song Yuntang was at least held back by Xia Ning.

"Ah!" There was only a scream, and the person whose foot Xia Ning stepped on cried out in pain, "Bitch! You stepped on me!"

Xia Ning ignored her, helped Song Yuntang to stand firmly, and looked at her with a worried look on his face.

"Ma'am, are you okay?"

Song Yuntang was obviously frightened, her face turned pale, and she covered her chest and shook her head.

"I am fine."

In a moment of desperation, she even planned to protect the baby in her belly even at the risk of breaking her arm again.

Fortunately, Xia Ning pulled her back.

Xia Ning nodded and looked coldly at Zhuang Zihan, who was still screaming after being stepped on by her.

She had just kicked with all her strength.

If nothing unexpected happens, it will at least be a fracture.

Anyone who dares to hurt the lady, even if she is a concubine in the palace, even if she cannot be touched for the time being, must at least make her pay the price.

"Just now the situation was urgent, and Concubine Zhuang stretched her legs too far, so she accidentally stepped on it. I hope Concubine Zhuang won't blame me."

Then he seemed to realize something and pretended to be surprised.

"But why did Concubine Zhuang stretch her legs so long when my wife was passing by just now? Was she trying to harm the baby in my wife's belly, or did she not want my wife to deliver Concubine Rong's baby?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the people in the room had different expressions, and they all understood what had happened.

The main thing in Le'an County was that she really tripped him. Whether the fetus in her belly could be saved was another matter, but it was certain that Concubine Rong would not be able to give birth today.

Zhuang Zihan and Concubine Rong are distant cousins. She usually calls her cousin intimately, but I didn't expect that he would be jealous of her in private.

It is true that you cannot judge a person by his face.

Many people directly distanced themselves from Zhuang Zihan to avoid being implicated by her.

Today is not what it used to be.

Prince Heng was executed, and the court is investigating officials who were close to him.

Although the concubines in the harem were not allowed to interfere in state affairs, they had heard that there were some subtle connections between Prime Minister Zhuang and Prince Heng.

The status of concubines in the harem is closely related to their natal family, in addition to the emperor's favor.

Now that the Prime Minister's Mansion is in danger, Zhuang Zihan has naturally lost her value in being flattered in their eyes.

Zhuang Zihan avoided looking.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't do that!" she demanded confidently. "But you, you stepped on my foot and tried to blame me. Didn't your master ask you to do that?"

Seeing that Xia Ning wanted to say something, Song Yuntang looked at her.

"Xia Ning, facts speak louder than words, but now is not the time for theories. Concubine Rong and her unborn child are more important. Grab your medicine box and follow me!"

Hearing this, the concubines in the room couldn't help but admire Song Yuntang's broad-mindedness.

If Miss Xia Ning had not taken action in time, her child might have been lost. Although it was clearly related to her own interests, she was able to put aside her grudges for the time being and take care of Concubine Rong and the child in her belly.

The title of County Princess is well deserved.

However, Song Yuntang did not bother with Zhuang Zihan for the time being, but Zhuang Zihan was not happy about it.

She leaned on the palace maid beside her, her whole body trembling slightly with pain, and she couldn't even lift the foot that was stepped on.

"You guys just stepped on me and left like that?"

Seeing this, Nanny Su stood up with a cold expression.

"Her Majesty has always been quite kind to Consort Zhuang. What is Consort Zhuang's intention in doing this today? Are you jealous of our Her Majesty?"

When human lives were at stake, she ignored the overall situation and wasted time here.

If Miss Xia Ning had not stepped on her outstretched foot just now, she would not have known that this cousin was such a hypocritical and vicious person.

Zhuang Zihan was shocked and shook her head while enduring the severe pain in her instep.

"Madam Su, I don't have any."

"Whether it happened or not, all the ladies are watching. After the Imperial Concubine gives birth, I will tell you in detail what happened. I believe you will have your own judgment in your heart!"

After saying this, Nanny Su turned around and followed Song Yuntang towards the bedroom.

Zhuang Zihan was still unwilling to give in and was about to wink at the palace maid beside her, but she saw the queen slam the table.

"Lady Zhuang, Concubine Rong's life is hanging by a thread during childbirth. You can't mess around here!"

Although she and Concubine Rong don't get along on a daily basis.

But at this critical moment, he didn't think of taking her life.

The years in the palace are long.

It would be boring if there were no one to fight with you. As long as no one lost their lives, it would not be a big deal.

She did not expect the emperor's true love.

But as the queen, it is her responsibility to manage the harem and give birth to offspring for the royal family.

What Zhuang Zihan is doing now has obviously touched the bottom line of being a queen.

Seeing that the usually gentle queen got angry, Zhuang Zihan was a little afraid in her heart. She sat back in her seat, and the pain from the instep of her feet made it impossible for her to maintain her usual dignity.

"Hurry up and find the imperial physician!"

The palace maids were busy bowing.

"Slave, go now."

……

In the bedroom, the imperial concubine who was once extremely beautiful and gorgeous was lying weakly on the delivery bed. Perhaps because of the long delivery period, her face was now pale, her hair was wet and messy, and she looked extremely embarrassed.

Song Yuntang rolled up his sleeves and walked to the bed.

"Which side of the fetus is facing downwards now?"

The midwife standing by was so anxious that she was sweating.

"To answer the county lady, I am currently facing downwards and cannot enter the pelvis."

Song Yuntang nodded, "Noble Concubine Rong was born eight months prematurely, so the baby shouldn't be too big. There's still a chance that the baby will be in the normal position."

She tied up her sleeves, lifted up Concubine Rong's eyelids and took a look, then took her pulse to make sure her vital signs were normal before reaching out to her abdomen.

Following Song Yuntang's actions, Concubine Rong woke up in pain.

Seeing this, Nanny Su hurried forward to comfort her.

"Your Highness, the Princess of Le'an is here. She said there's a chance your fetal position will be corrected. Just bear with it and it will be fine soon."

Concubine Rong cried.

"Mammy, I will never give birth to a child again."

Nanny Su was so distressed that she wiped her tears and said, "No more children. Whether it's a little prince or a little princess, this one is enough for us."

"what!"

Concubine Rong cried out in pain and looked at Song Yuntang beside her with tears in her eyes.

"Le'an County Master, you are really cruel."

As Song Yuntang corrected her fetal position, he said, "If you don't do it ruthlessly, the baby's position won't be corrected. I know this process will be painful, but you have to endure it, otherwise the only option left is a cesarean section."

Although cesarean section is easier, it also carries greater risks. If the conditions are not met at the moment, it is better not to try it unless necessary.

Upon hearing about the caesarean section, both Nanny Su and Concubine Rong were so frightened that they dared not speak a word.

Fortunately, the baby was not big and the position change went smoothly.

Song Yuntang breathed a sigh of relief.

"All right!"

Maybe it was because I had exerted too much force just now, but I felt a little tense in my abdomen at this moment.
