“Alright, I’ll get someone to send it over immediately. Take this first. You can also use it as a death-exemption token.”

He knew that MO Ruyue was worried about him. She was afraid that he would punish her after Consort Li died.

Seeing that she did not lose her composure and think for him in this cruel place, he was very pleased.

Ji Hong took the dragon-patterned jade pendant from his waist and placed it in MO Ruyue’s hand. MO Ruyue did not hesitate to put it into her bosom.

“Do you need anything else?

“Just mention it. ‘

“No, you’re quite busy. Also, you have to find the person who drugged Consort Li. After I take her child out, you have to take care of her carefully. You can’t keep such a dangerous person by your side. That won’t be good for Consort Li and your child.”

Hearing MO Ruyue’s words, Ji Hong asked in confusion, “Are you saying that Consort Li can still survive after a caesarian section?

“Of course. Otherwise, do you think you can only choose one?

MO Ruyue replied seriously.

“You really can keep Consort Li and the child alive?

“According to the current situation, the child will definitely survive. If Consort Li has a strong will to live, as long as she follows my advice, there should be no problem.”

Ji Hong understood now. Although MO Ruyue was talking about something he had never seen before, he still had a sense of trust in her.

He immediately ordered his men to carry out MO Ruyue’s request. In the time it took to brew a cup of tea, all the things MO Ruyue needed and two assistants were brought to the scene.

“I like it when you’re so straightforward. Go out and guard the door. No one is allowed to enter.”

“Remember, before I leave, no one is allowed to enter or disturb me.

After Ji Hong nodded and left, MO Ruyue asked the two assistants to put on clean clothes and wash their hands and disinfect them according to her instructions.

These two ladies were Ji Hong’s shadow guards, specially groomed in secret. This time, he took out two of them to use.

Ji Hong didn’t believe the others. Not a single one of them was useful.

The two female shadow guards saw MO Ruyue giving Consort Li some medicine and pricking her stomach with needles. Consort Li then said that she could no longer feel her stomach pain.

If the Emperor hadn’t instructed them to follow MO Ruyue’s instructions and not to question her, they would have stepped forward to stop her. But in the end, they had gone even further.

MO Ruyue took out a small knife and cut open Consort Li’s stomach before the two of them could react.

The two female shadow guards widened their eyes and opened their mouths in an O shape, but they remembered that they could not make a sound to disturb MO Ruyue.

“Give me that!”

MO Ruyue pointed at the scissors in the basin of surgical instruments. One of the female shadow guards quickly took it and handed it to MO Ruyue.

“Wipe your sweat.”

The other immediately came over and gently wiped the sweat off MO Ruyue’s forehead.

The two of them were under MO Ruyue’s command, but nothing went wrong. After a while, the two of them did not dare to look. MO Ruyue was scratching Consort Li’s belly, but they were curious about what she was going to do.

MO Ruyue pressed her hands on both sides of Consort Li’s stomach, and a bloody baby emerged. The baby’s small hands were waving in the air.

When the two saw this scene, they heaved a sigh of relief. The Emperor’s heir was safe!

MO Ruyue moved so quickly that she almost forgot to breathe. She clamped the bleeding spots on Consort Li’s stomach with a hemostatic forceps before she heaved a sigh of relief.

She picked up the baby’s feet with one hand and made him stand upside down on the soles of his feet. The baby cried loudly.

At this moment, the baby spat out some of the remaining water in his mouth.

When MO Ruyue put the baby down, she reached her fingers into the baby’s mouth and gently dug out the remaining water. Her movements were smooth and fluid. She squeezed the water out of the baby’s mouth and cut the umbilical cord in just a few seconds.

She had to hurry, Consort Li’s stomach was still waiting for her.

Then, one of the shadow guards carried the baby while the other one stared at MO Ruyue with wide eyes and did not blink the entire time. She looked at MO Ruyue’s every movement and realized that a woman’s stomach could be sewed back up like a piece of clothing. Moreover, there were several layers of stitches on the inside and outside. This was even more terrifying than asking them to kill someone.

The scariest thing was that Consort Li was still able to talk to them. She looked at the child’s gentle face, and MO Ruyue’s actions on her stomach seemed to be fake, as if it was someone else’s stomach. Consort Li did not seem to feel the slightest pain.

It had been almost an hour since everything was done. MO Ruyue made a final inspection and found that all her instruments were outside, and the number of clothes used to stop the bleeding was correct.

“How does Consort Li feel now?

“Much better. Much better than before. Thank you.”

The two shadow guards were already used to seeing Consort Li speak to MO Ruyue normally. But, did Consort Li’s stomach really not hurt?

“In about an hour, the wound will hurt. If you can’t help it, tell me.”

MO Ruyue then used a cotton cloth to wipe the blood off the baby’s body. The baby’s skin was a little red and not very fleshy because he was not even a month old. MO Ruyue examined him carefully and found that the baby was quite healthy. Overall, he was doing well.

The main reason was that peoples parents had good genes. Even a baby could tell that he would definitely be a handsome boy in the future. “Congratulations to the Empress for giving birth to a prince.”

“Thank you, thank you.”

Consort Li already knew that it was a boy, but she was sincerely grateful to MO Ruyue. Even if she was about to die, she would be satisfied.

“You can carry the child out now and tell the Emperor to change Consort Li’s room to a clean one.”

The shadow guard who was carrying the baby was overjoyed when she heard MO Ruyue’s words. She carefully carried the prince out of the room. The Eldest Prince was too soft and small. She was a little afraid and it was better to let go of him as soon as possible.

Ji Hong was very excited when he saw the baby. He had a prince!

When he heard that Consort Li was still awake, the huge rock in his heart was also put down.

He ordered the palace maids to quickly change Consort Li’s room according to MO Ruyue’s instructions.

When Consort Li came out of the delivery room, the Emperor took a look and saw that she was indeed awake. He said that it had been hard on her and Consort Li was so touched that her eyes were filled with tears.

MO Ruyue looked at Consort Li’s expression and complained in her heart. The women in the palace were really pitiful. Not only did they have to fight with several women for a man at the same time, but they also had to think of ways to please the man every day. After giving birth to the child that they had risked their lives to give birth to, they only got a word of thanks and were so touched.

It was true that everyone had their own preferences. Perhaps these people liked this kind of life.

She couldn’t help but say, “You must take care of Consort Li according to my request. Consort Li can only eat after she has been vented. Especially the doors and windows. You can’t close them tightly all day long.”

MO Ruyue, Ji Hong, and the two female shadow guards carefully explained the things they had to take note of. Before she could finish her sentence, her legs suddenly gave up, and she collapsed weakly.

Ji Hong reacted quickly and caught MO Ruyue, who was about to faint.

“MO Ruyue, what’s wrong?

Quickly call the Imperial Doctor!”

Immediately, a young eunuch agreed and went to find the Imperial Doctor..
