Chapter 157: Amniotic fluid, the amniotic fluid broke...
Prince Qi stared at Chu Jian carefully.
"Chu Yang, you really look like Princess Zhan Chu Jian. Tell the uncle, you and her both have the last name Chu, so is Chu Jian your sister? You sent her to Jing Muyang to confuse him, right?"
"I don't have any sisters." Chu Jian had completely lost the ability to think. She couldn't tell whether what King Qi said was true or false.
If it was false, why did Prince Qi know so much about it, especially since only a few people knew about the Tianshui poison in Jing Muyang; if it was true, then wouldn't she have been staying with her enemy all the time?
When they first met, she couldn't help but wonder, why did Fusang want to keep her by his side?
The Emperor of Lingyin Kingdom robbed the Queen of Nanbang, so when he caught a princess from Lingyin Kingdom, he took revenge on the Lingyin royal family in the same way?
"Your Highness Prince Qi!" Mr. Fanglin came in from outside and glanced at Chu Jian who was in a panic. "Your Highness Prince Qi, I wonder what brings you to the East Palace?"
"Nothing, it's just that Chu Yang is about to give birth. This is my brother's eldest grandson, so I came to show my concern and give Chu Yang some small supplements. In addition, I came to the Imperial Master specifically to see if I can get some stone scorpions for medicine."
"It's in the Stone Scorpion Imperial Hospital. Prince Qi can go get it."
"The stone scorpion I'm talking about is the highly poisonous kind found on the stone mountain in Yangshu Village. The pain in my joints is getting worse and worse. I wonder if the Imperial Master could spare me some." Prince Qi lowered his posture.
Mr. Fanglin looked at Chu Jian again with a gloomy face. The girl was obviously on guard. It seemed that Prince Qi said something that he shouldn't have said.
"Your Highness Prince Qi, Yangshu Village suffered from floods and droughts last year. The production of stone scorpions is not high, and they have all been used as medicine. I can't give them to you. The stone scorpions in the Imperial Hospital are almost as effective, so you can just put a few more."
"Okay, then I won't bother you anymore." Prince Qi didn't say much. Anyway, he had said everything he wanted to say to Chu Jian.
As soon as Prince Qi left, Mr. Fanglin started asking, "Girl, what did Prince Qi tell you?"
Chu Jian glanced at Chi Yun beside her. Even if she didn't say it, Chi Yun would have told her.
"He said that Mu Yang was poisoned by Fusang, and that Fusang tried to assassinate Mu Yang several times. He also said that you deliberately approached Mu Yang and deliberately approached me." Chu Jian said in a low voice.
"What about you? Do you believe it?"
"I don't know. Let me think about it carefully."
"Do you still need to think about it? Girl, do you think I am good to you? Is Fusang good to you?"
"it is good."
"Then what are you wondering about?"
"I wonder why you saved Mu Yang, why you are so nice to me, and why Fusang didn't send a message to Mu Yang to pick me up. I don't believe that Fusang doesn't have the ability. He just wants to keep me by his side and not let me leave. But why?"
"Chuyang." Fuso appeared at the door.
When he heard that Prince Qi had gone to the Eastern Palace, he was so scared that he dropped his pen and almost ran back, just in time to hear the conversation between Chu Jian and Mr. Fang Lin.
Why? Alas, Mr. Fanglin looked at Fusang, sighed, and walked away with his hands behind his back.
Chi Yun and the maids also went downstairs.
Fusang walked into the room and approached Chu Jian, raised his hand and touched her head, "Are you scared by the little uncle?"
Chu Jian dodged slightly and shook his head.
"Chu Yang, are you afraid that I will hurt you?" Chu Jian's avoidance made him feel a little heartbroken.
"No." Chu Jian shook his head again.
"So do you think I really did those things?"
When she first looked up and met his eyes, there was heartache, forbearance, tenderness and caution in Fusang's eyes.
"should not."
Hearing this, Fusang's eyes turned red with excitement, "Okay, I will check what the little uncle said, and I will give you an explanation as soon as possible."
"Fuso, I'm sorry, I'm so scared." Chu Jian was about to cry. She was scared, very scared. When she heard Prince Qi say this just now, she still doubted whether it was Fuso, but when she met Fuso's eyes, she inexplicably believed him.
Fusang bent down and wiped her tears, "Don't be afraid, the little uncle dare not mess around in the palace."
"But he already knows my identity. He also knows what poison Mu Yang was poisoned with. Even in Lingyin Country, few people know that Mu Yang was poisoned with Tianshui. How did Prince Qi know that?"
"Maybe he provided this poison. There is a place in the southwest of Nanbang, where people are very good at preparing various poisons, and the young uncle has always been in close contact with them." Fusang squatted down and held her hand. "Chuyang, I recently found out that the young uncle may have had contact with a prince of Lingyin Kingdom. Can you give me some clues?"
"The seventh prince seems to know how to use poison, the fifth prince seems to have dealings with Nanbang, and I don't know the others." Chu Jian really didn't know much.
"Okay, I'll go check it out." Fuso squatted and looked up at Chujian and smiled slightly. He was very happy that Chujian trusted him. If it could continue like this, maybe one day she would forget Jing Muyang and accept him.
"Get up." Chu Jian pulled him, and Fuso was looking at her and smiling foolishly again.
Fuso didn't get up, but touched her belly.
"Chuyang, do you feel any discomfort in your stomach? It's been more than ten days since the due date, and you still don't feel like labor is coming?"
"Not yet." Chu Jian pushed his hand away, "But it should be in the next two days."
"Okay. Let's go for a walk in the Imperial Garden?" Fuso stood up and pulled her.
"Don't you have to review memorials?" After all, it was not long since the court session ended, and he usually would not come back until it was time for meals.
"It's okay, Father can handle it."
*
The Minor Cold has passed and the sky is overcast without sunshine.
Fuso put a cloak on Chujian, gave her a hand warmer, and carefully helped her walk in the imperial garden.
However, they had not walked for long when Chu Jian suddenly felt something unusual, with a hot current flowing down his legs. Chu Jian turned his head in a daze and looked at Fuso in panic.
"What's wrong?" Fuso looked back at her.
"My water broke..." Chu Jian held Fuso's hand tightly and stood there not daring to move.
"Huh?" Fusang was startled. Didn't she just say she didn't feel anything? So fast? "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Let's go back."
Fuso picked her up and walked back. Fortunately, the East Palace was not far from the Imperial Garden, and the servants acted quickly and called for help!
Soon the East Palace became bustling with activity. Everything had been prepared in advance, and everything was just waiting for the birth, so everything was busy and in an orderly manner.
Chu Jian was carried into the prepared delivery room, where the midwives and maids prepared her. The next moment was just waiting. The breaking of the amniotic fluid did not mean immediate birth. At least for now, Chu Jian, who had changed her clothes and was lying on the bed, had not seen any spotting and had not felt any contractions.
The midwife was waiting on the side, and Mr. Fanglin felt her pulse and said, "Girl, don't worry, it won't be that fast. Eat something first."
After saying that, he went out.
Fuso saw Mr. Fanglin’s serious face and chased after him.
"Master, how is it?"
"The fetal pulse seems weak. We can't wait. We must hurry up and give birth, otherwise the fetus will suffocate. Fusang, you stay here with her and let her eat something. I'll make her a soup to induce labor."
