Chapter 745: Born without a cry
Although she already knew that Doctor Xu was very likely to have bad intentions towards her, Doctor Xu was after all Concubine Liang's man and had followed Concubine Liang for many years, so Concubine Hao still held on to the last glimmer of hope in her heart.
Perhaps, this was just an accident?
After all, her health has always been poor, and it is possible that Doctor Xu cannot say for sure whether she will give birth prematurely.
Out of trust in Concubine Liang, Concubine Hao has been deceiving herself.
However, at this moment, even if she wanted to continue to believe in Doctor Xu, she couldn't do it.
He is really, really not a good person!
So...what about Sister Liang Fei?
Does Sister Liangfei know about what Doctor Xu did?
Concubine Hao was in a state of confusion, with no answer...
But in this situation, the only thing she could be sure of was that Concubine Chen really wanted to save her!
Otherwise, why would the other party go to so much trouble to give her the life-saving pill, and rush over as soon as he knew she was in premature labor? He also sent his trusted imperial physician to the delivery room.
There was another burst of severe pain in her body, and Concubine Hao no longer had the mind to think about these things.
However, when she thought of Concubine Chen, she finally felt a little more at ease.
No matter what Concubine Chen's purpose is, as long as she and her child can survive this time, it's fine!
Perhaps it was because she had regained some strength by holding the ginseng slices in her mouth, or perhaps it was a mother's instinct. Concubine Hao closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and exerted strength again!
The midwife below exclaimed in surprise: "I've seen the end! I've seen the end!"
"Lady Hao, please take a deep breath first, and then try harder!"
"Yes! That's it! The baby is almost out!"
The midwife next to her, who had other thoughts in mind, was also trying her best to deliver the baby for Concubine Hao.
After all, the master behind her had instructed that the royal heir must be safe at all costs!
Lady Hao didn't know how much time had passed. To her, it seemed like a lifetime...
Finally, just when Concubine Hao was about to use up her last bit of strength, she felt as if something slipped out of her body...
Concubine Hao's consciousness gradually became blurred. She only heard bursts of surprised laughter from the people in the delivery room: "It's born! It's born! It's a prince!"
"Great! Concubine Hao gave birth to the fifth prince for Your Majesty!"
"No! Why didn't the Fifth Prince cry out? He seems to be dead... Quick! Imperial physician! Quick!"
"..."
In a daze, Concubine Hao heard everyone's surprised voices and gradually became nervous and scared.
Perhaps because of the bond between mother and child, her heart was also wrenched.
It's a prince! It's a prince!
What happened to her child?
Concubine Hao was extremely worried, but now she really didn't even have the strength to open her eyes, and her consciousness was becoming more and more blurred...
I'm so sleepy and tired! I really want to fall asleep...
At this moment, everyone gathered around the Fifth Prince, only Chu'er was nervously guarding Concubine Hao.
After going through so much hardship, the young lady finally gave birth to a prince safely. Her future will surely be smooth sailing!
However, before Chu Er could be happy, she saw a large amount of blood pouring out from under Concubine Hao...
Her face turned extremely pale and she said nervously, "Blood! The little one is bleeding a lot! Someone come quickly!"
Several midwives hurriedly gathered around Concubine Hao, their faces suddenly turned ugly: "Oh my God! It's hemorrhage..."
They were all experienced midwives who knew that if a woman had heavy bleeding after giving birth, it would most likely be impossible to stop it. Even a great immortal would not be able to save her...
A midwife covered Concubine Hao's body with a quilt.
Tang Luochuan was giving emergency treatment to the fifth prince when Doctor Xu came in carrying a medicine box.
He felt the pulse of the unconscious Concubine Hao, opened her eyelids and took a look, and finally sighed: "The young lady is having a difficult labor and hemorrhage. I can only send someone to boil medicine and try my best, hoping to save the young lady's life!"
These midwives had seen many women die from postpartum hemorrhage, and they knew that Concubine Hao was probably not going to make it.
Although there was regret in the eyes of several people, they did not doubt it.
One of the midwives looked at Doctor Xu and smiled knowingly.
This time, God was really on their side! They hadn't done anything to Concubine Hao yet, and she couldn't survive on her own.
Even if His Majesty pursues the matter later, His Majesty will not be angry because he has given birth to a prince.
Only Chu Er couldn't accept this result. She lay on top of Concubine Hao and burst into tears: "My lady, please don't let anything happen to you!"
"My lady! My lady, please hold on a little longer! Doctor Xu has gone to make medicine, you must not get hurt!"
The midwives went out to report the news.
Chu Er had always remembered what Concubine Hao said. At this moment, she didn't believe anyone anymore. She turned her back to the door to block the view of others, and took out the porcelain bottle from her arms with trembling hands. Then she forced Concubine Hao's mouth open and poured the pills inside.
She also didn't know where the young master's pill came from, let alone whether it could save the young master's life.
But at this time, we can only try our best!
"My lady, you just gave birth to the fifth prince and haven't had time to see him yet. You must wake up quickly!"
The fifth prince was born prematurely, and whether he could save his life was another matter. If the youngest prince could not be saved, wouldn't both mother and child die?
Chu'er's eyes were swollen from crying.
Tang Luochuan and Doctor Xu were both busy with their own matters.
The midwives came out, performed their greetings respectfully, and reported truthfully: "Reporting to the Empress Chen and the Empress Liang, Concubine Hao gave birth to a prince!"
"It's just that... the fifth prince was born prematurely and has not cried since he was born. Imperial Doctor Tang is currently treating him..."
"And Concubine Hao... Concubine Hao is having a difficult labor and hemorrhage, and Doctor Xu is already making medicine for her..."
Everyone was shocked and their expressions became subtle.
At this moment, many people understood that although Doctor Xu said he was going to boil medicine, how many women with dystocia and hemorrhage could be saved since ancient times? Concubine Hao was afraid that she was in danger...
I just don’t know whether the premature fifth prince can survive.
Under normal circumstances, if Concubine Hao gave birth to a prince, it is hard to imagine how many people would be jealous of her.
Some people with dark minds, even if they dare not say it outwardly, will curse in their hearts that the Fifth Prince would not survive!
But seeing that Concubine Hao was about to pass away, a newly born prince without a mother would be so popular!
Concubine Liang slowly closed her eyes, and two lines of tears flowed from her eyes: "Sister Hao..."
She suddenly lifted up her skirt, knelt down facing the moon in the night sky, clasped her hands together and said devoutly: "God and Earth, as long as my good sister and the fifth prince can survive this disaster, and mother and child are safe, I am willing to shorten my life by ten years!"
