Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 744

"Your Majesty, be careful what you say!" Prime Minister Pei, being cunning and shrewd, would certainly not admit to his conspiracy.

Yun Xiyue chuckled, "Since Prime Minister Pei can't produce any evidence, then go back! Don't think that just because you're now regent, you can act recklessly. Anyone who doesn't know better would think that Prime Minister Pei wants to sit on the dragon throne!"

Pei Xiang's expression changed slightly, and a sinister glint flashed in his eyes.

Without evidence, Yun Xiyue has no intention of releasing the person.

He denied assassinating Ghost Hand and had no way to remove the poison, so he could only endure it for now.

The next second, Yun Xiyue clutched her stomach, "Ah... someone come here, my stomach is upset..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Leng Yan led his men in.

"Prime Minister... why did you hurt my child..." Yun Xiyue pointed at Prime Minister Pei with a pained expression.

Prime Minister Pei was immediately enraged, "Yun family, don't even think about slandering this old man..."

"Oh no! Her Majesty has gone into premature labor!" a palace maid shouted. "Guards, seize the Prime Minister!"

Leng Yan cupped his hands and said, "Prime Minister, please forgive me."

Prime Minister Pei was so angry he almost vomited blood. Only then did he realize that Yun Xiyue had summoned him to the palace to slander him.

If word gets out that he plotted to murder the imperial heir, his reputation will be ruined in his later years.

"How dare you be so insolent!"

Leng Yan ignored his shouting and had him taken down.

"My lady..."

Yun Xiyue clutched her stomach, cold sweat beading on her forehead. "I'm really going into labor. You take some men and guard Jiaofang Palace. Bring Master here, and don't allow the Empress Dowager and the Prime Minister to have any contact."

Leng Yan nodded and quickly led her into the delivery room.

Ghost Hand arrived on his own after hearing the news.

"Find a bodyguard to come in with me. If I make any move, knock me out immediately."

Leng Yan asked, "Has the Gu poison in your body not been cured?"

"No, it's just been temporarily suppressed."

Ghost Hand wiped away the cold sweat. The wound on his arm had already been treated. "Don't worry, nothing will happen to Yue'er. She's pregnant with triplets and has to have a C-section, otherwise she won't be able to give birth."

And the only exception is that he can't have this surgery if he's not asleep.

"Don't be afraid, Yue."

Yun Xiyue was covered in sweat and had already started having contractions. This feeling was too uncomfortable. "Master... I can have a natural birth. The baby is premature. Would it be bad to have a C-section?"

Ghost Hand had explained the difference between a cesarean section and a natural birth to her before.

It is indeed better to have a natural birth.

"You had multiple births, so this situation doesn't count as premature birth."

Yun Xiyue shook her head, "I'll try for a natural birth first. If I can't deliver naturally, then I'll have a C-section..."

The doctor took her pulse and found nothing wrong; it was a normal delivery.

"Is the Emperor not going to be able to return in time?" Yun Xiyue couldn't help but ask.

"He probably won't be able to make it back in time." Ghost Hand's eyes were full of heartache, and he harbored considerable resentment towards Murong Yu. In the end, he abandoned A Yue.

Damn it!

"Master... I'm in so much pain..." In less than half an hour, Yun Xiyue couldn't bear it anymore and thought she should have a C-section as soon as possible, but she was worried that the baby wouldn't be born well.

I just kept enduring it.

"Don't be afraid, it will be fine soon."

"Ah Yue is alright."

As a doctor, Ghost Hand didn't find anything scary about delivering babies for others, but now that he suddenly had to deliver her baby, he realized he wasn't so calm after all.

"Divine Physician, how is Her Majesty now? There's something unusual happening in the palace!"

Leng Yan asked from outside.

First, a large number of assassins appeared at the hostage residence; they were there to rescue the three hostages.

Then assassins broke into the palace and first tried to kill the Empress Dowager.
