MO Ruyue took a look at it. It was only for consolidating one’s foundation and nourishing one’s qi. It was not very useful for pregnant women who had difficult labor.

But when she checked Consort Li’s pulse, she found that it wasn’t that simple.

There seemed to be something wrong.

“Can you bring me the medicine?

“Or the bowl of soup that Consort Li drank.”

The head maidservant immediately brought over the bowl of medicine that Consort Li had drunk. There was still some residual juice at the bottom of the bowl.

MO Ruyue took the bowl of medicine and tasted it with a serious look in her eyes.

She immediately wrote a prescription for the maid.

“Hurry up and get the medicine.”

MO Ruyue whispered into Consort Li’s ear after the maidservant left.

“Is there anyone you trust?”

“Is that maidservant trustworthy?”

Consort Li did not expect MO Ruyue to ask this question. She looked at MO Ruyue in confusion.

“Someone must have deliberately caused you to fall, right? So, even if it’s the maidservant beside you, is she credible?”

Consort Li’s face turned even uglier after hearing MO Ruyue’s words. She knew about this, but she was already in this state. What could she do? The Emperor would not come here.

“Do you have a way to get the Emperor to come over? Or do you have the Emperor send a few capable and trustworthy people over? I need assistants.” MO Ruyue asked.

MO Ruyue was thinking that it would be best if the Emperor came over personally. She had to personally communicate with the Emperor that his wife had to have a caesarian section.

It had been more than two hours since MO Ruyue arrived. The palace had not even opened. Consort Li would probably die from the pain and would not be able to give birth.

Since she was already here, she couldn’t just watch Consort Li and the child in her stomach die in front of her. At that time, she would also be unable to escape punishment. Now, she could only have a caesarian section.

“Doctor MO, you must save the child in my stomach. I can’t live without him!”

Consort Li’s hands were tightly gripping onto MO Ruyue, her nails almost digging into MO Ruyue’s flesh, but she still refused to let go. She stared at MO Ruyue, waiting for her to nod.

Ever since she was pregnant, she had been in a state of panic every day. She had never had a good night’s sleep. Every day, she would carefully check her food for poison. She had waited until the last moment, but she still suffered.

Fortunately, she could feel that the child in her stomach was still safe. As long as she could give birth to him, both mother and son would be safe.

“Then think of a way to get the Emperor to come over.”

Hearing MO Ruyue’s words, Consort Li’s eyes hardened. Even if she didn’t call the Emperor over, she might not be able to see him for the last time. She might as well take this opportunity to risk the death penalty and ask the Emperor to come over.

Consort Li asked her nanny to go to the Emperor and tell her that she was dying and wanted to see the Emperor one last time.

The child in Consort Li’s stomach was also the Emperor’s first child. He valued this child quite a bit, so the Emperor came in fifteen minutes later.

“Greetings to the Emperor.”

Ji Hong raised his hand to stop them from saluting and did not enter the hall. He saw the two imperial doctors and asked solemnly, “How is Consort Li?” The two imperial doctors hurriedly kowtowed.

“This official doesn’t know. After that Doctor MO came, she chased all of us out.”

One of the imperial doctors directly sold MO Ruyue out and said nothing else. If they continued to talk, it would be too much and it would backfire.

In any case, the Emperor was here, and now he saw them being chased out. It couldn’t be better.

MO Ruyue heard the palace maids and eunuchs greeting the Emperor loudly and knew that the Emperor had arrived. She asked Consort Li to calm down and walked out of the palace.

The moment she opened the door, she saw Ji Hong and MO Ruyue facing each other.

Ji Hong was stunned as well. He didn’t expect MO Ruyue to be here and thought he was seeing things.

“MO Ruyue, why are you here?”

“Long time no see.”

“I didn’t even have a bite of food early in the morning when I was dragged here by an old man.”

“Consort Li’s condition is very bad. She fell down and caused premature labor. The fetal position is not right, and someone gave her medicine that causes contractions.”

“Although it’s not much, the child in her stomach has to be born in time.”

As soon as MO Ruyue finished speaking, the two imperial doctors immediately knelt down in fear.

There were no other imperial doctors who had come earlier, only the two of them. Now that MO Ruyue had said this, it was obvious that she was trying to slander them!

“I’m innocent, Your Majesty!”

“Tell them to shut up. Consort Li is very weak now, they can’t make any noise.”

Ji Hong glanced over and the two imperial doctors immediately shut their mouths in fear. One of them even burped.

“What happened?”

“I don’t know about that. You need to investigate it yourself.”

“Let’s talk in private, please.”

MO Ruyue pointed at the palace hall to let Ji Hong in. The palace maids and eunuchs widened their eyes in disbelief as they looked at the rude MO Ruyue. How dare she speak so casually in front of the Emperor? Was it a great crime to be beheaded?

Now, she actually dared to let the Emperor enter that filthy place. Consort Li was the one who gave birth there, how could she let the Emperor enter?

However, they were dumbfounded to find that the Emperor had obediently followed MO Ruyue into the palace. Were they seeing things?

The palace maids and eunuchs rubbed their eyes.

The decisive Emperor actually obediently followed MO Ruyue into the palace where Consort Li was giving birth?

What kind of shocking secret had they seen? Would the Emperor turn around and kill them all?

Some of the palace maids and eunuchs couldn’t help but tremble as they cursed in their hearts. Which unlucky God had invited Doctor MO here? It would be fine if Consort Li could give birth smoothly today, but if anything went wrong, they would lose their heads. At this moment, they could feel that their heads had already reached their heels.

Ji Hong was initially a little nervous when he saw MO Ruyue, but he heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that MO Ruyue was still the same as before.

“Listen to me. Someone is trying to harm your wife and child. It’s best if you can find two very trustworthy people to help me. Your wife’s stomach has to be torn open so that the child can be safely born.”

“Also, you have to send someone back to the Xue Family Bodyguard Agency to bring me my bag. Everything I need is inside.”

“You must send someone you trust to do these things.”

MO Ruyue said a long list of words, then looked at Ji Hong. Ji Hong nodded, indicating that he understood.

Consort Li might not be able to make it, but she had to protect the child in her stomach no matter what.

This was the child that he had carefully planned. He definitely could not let it die prematurely. It was already the last moment. No matter what, he had to protect that child. Although he had let Consort Li down, he would definitely take care of her child in the future.

“You can go in now and talk to Consort Li to boost her confidence. This way, her condition will be much better.”

Ji Hong nodded, but he did not move. He looked at MO Ruyue, who was not afraid of his gaze. Instead, she thought of something.

“Oh right, I saved you twice in the past, and now I have to save your wife and child. No matter what, I can get a death exemption medal from you!’

Upon hearing MO Ruyue’s request, Ji Hong did not get angry. Instead, the corners of his mouth curled up. This woman was always like this, always putting her life first.

Indeed, every man puts himself first. Even he was always doing it for himself..
