"No way!"
Before Lu Yuan He could finish his words, he was interrupted by Yan Shuo, "We order you, you must protect Master!"
"Your majesty."
Yan Shuo walked to her side and sat down, "Rong Er is not afraid, we will save you …"
"Don't …"
Yun Jiao Rong looked at Yan Shuo with a beseeching gaze, his eyes were filled with anticipation before he died, "Save … Save our children... He … He is our child. "
"Rong Er..."
"Your Majesty, Rong Er is very clear, even if... Even if the Emperor abandoned this child, Rong Er would not be able to live. Save Children... We... Our child … "
Yan Shuo's eyes turned red and tears started to flow down his face. The words "our child" kept scratching his heart.
After a long while, he gritted his teeth as he looked at Lu Yuan He, his voice trembling: "What method do you have?"
"The commoner golden needle technique stimulates the Miss Yun's acupoints and helps her to exert her strength."
Lu Yuan He did not explain in detail, but everyone present who was an expert in the art of medicine knew that this was an extremely tricky needle technique that stimulated the entire body's potential, unleashing it to the extreme. The result of it however, was that the mother had expended all of his energy and vitality, causing his oil to run dry and he died.
The imperial physicians all wiped off their cold sweat. Probably only the Mr. Lu would dare to mention this method in front of the Kaiser.
Although this Miss Yun was definitely going to die, if she died in such a cruel manner, the Emperor would put this hatred on his head.
Kaiser also roughly guessed Lu Yuan He's intention. The hand at his side was trembling uncontrollably.
However, he still forced himself to ask, "What about the consequences of the acupuncture points?"
"Her mother died of exhaustion."
Lu Yuan He's words were extremely cruel, yet he said it out loud without any hesitation.
Kaiser staggered, almost losing his balance.
"Your majesty, your child won't be able to last much longer."
The midwives' anxious voices rang out as well.
"Lu..." Mr. Lu, let's begin. "
Yun Jiao Rong struggled to get up, and looked at Lu Yuan He with pleading eyes, "My child … Please... I'll be counting on Mr. Lu. "
"Yes, this commoner will do his best."
"No!" I won't allow it... "We won't allow it …"
Yan Shuo's face was filled with pain, he had given up on Rong Er or the unborn child, how was he to choose?
At this time, the empress dowager walked up to Lu Yuan He and said, "Mr. Lu, please apply the needles. If there's anything you need, the Wailing Home will carry it for you."
The empress dowager's gaze fell upon Yun Jiao Rong, who was also looking at her, his eyes filled with regret and gratitude. "Many thanks, empress dowager."
"No!" No one is allowed to touch Rong Er. "
Yan Shuo was about to go up to stop Lu Yuan He, but he was stopped by someone from his Acupoint Charging Spell.
Yan Shuo turned his head back to look at the person who had opened her acupuncture points with his scarlet eyes. His eyes were like that of a wild beast, wanting to eat her.
He roared hysterically as he watched Lu Yuan He's needles stabbing into Yun Jiao Rong's Hundred Meetings Acupoints. One needle, one needle …
"Rong Er! No, Rong Er! "
He tried his best to open his acupoints, but no matter how hard he tried, he was still unable to move.
The people present could only watch silently, as Yan Shuo screamed in despair, unable to bear to watch.
"Don't, Rong Er, don't, don't!"
Liu Ruo Qing also could not bear to watch Yun Jiao Rong suffer, but right now, Kaiser had already gone mad, she had to force himself to calm down, in order to protect the child.
"Your majesty, there's no saving her delicate face. Let her give birth to this child."
She hardened her heart and said to Yan Shuo.
"Liu Ruo Qing, I will cut off your head, hurry up and unlock my acupoints!"
Liu Ruo Qing had blocked the angle of Lu Yuan He's acupuncture, she could not bear for him to see Yun Jiao Rong's painful look.
Otherwise, this Kaiser might really have gone completely crazy.
Actually, the best thing for her to do now was to knock Kaiser unconscious with a single palm. But she knew that Yun Jiao Rong wouldn't be able to live any longer and would definitely be cruel to both him and Yun Jiao Rong if they said goodbye to each other before they died.
When Lu Yuan He stopped moving, the hysteria in Yan Shuo's eyes gradually turned into despair. He looked at Yun Jiao Rong using all of her strength to give birth to that child and heard her painful cries.
He desperately pleaded to Liu Ruo Qing, "Nine … Ninth Aunt, I beg you, let me go, Rong Er will die, Ninth Aunt … "
Liu Ruo Qing could not bear to see his eyes that were filled with so much despair that there was no light. In the next second, she saw Yan Shuo spitting out a mouthful of blood, the acupoints on his body had been washed away by himself.
"Your majesty!"
Yan Shuo still had some blood on the corner of his mouth, Liu Ruo Qing knew that if he could break through all of the acupoints, he would have to use up a lot of Qi in order to reverse the flow of his blood vessels.
"Rong Er!"
"Your majesty!"
Yun Jiao Rong's sharp voice came out, "Don't pull out the needle, Rong Er begs you, ah!"
"Rong Er!"
"It's born, it's born."
The anxious voice of a midwife sounded. The noisy Chengde Palace didn't hear the crying that a child should have.
At this moment, the child's entire body was green and purple. His eyes were closed and did not emit a single sound.
Lu Yuan He reacted very quickly as he stepped forward and picked up the child from the woman's hands, and used a silver needle to stab the child's body.
At this time, Yan Shuo did not care about anything and only looked at Yun Jiao Rong, who no longer had any strength left, the despair in his eyes deepened.
"Rong …" Rong Er... "
"Down..." In his next life, the Emperor … Your Majesty, please don't … Don't love Rong Er anymore. "
She looked reluctantly at the child she'd probably poisoned to death, tears streaming down her face. "If …" If he can survive, well... "Take good care of him …"
Before he even finished speaking, his ice-cold hand dropped from Yan Shuo's hand and Yan Shuo stared at his empty palm for a full ten seconds.
"Rong Er!"
"Wuuwaa!"
Yan Shuo's painful cries and the crying of the children sounded out at almost the same time. royal eldest son's origin was supposed to be a heavenly joyous occasion, but at this moment, no one was able to laugh.
"Esteemed Empress Dowager, this child's condition isn't good. She's been poisoned, so this commoner should treat him as soon as possible."
"Alright."
The empress dowager looked at the imperial physicians within the Taiyuan Hospital. "All of you, go help out.
Inside the Chengde Palace, all the imperial physicians had retreated, leaving behind Yan Shuo who had gone from hysterical to quiet grief, sitting lifelessly by Yun Jiao Rong's side.
"My son."
The empress dowager's heart ached as she caressed Yan Shuo's painful face. Yan Shuo slowly turned his head to look at her as tears welled up in his eyes. Rong Er left, Queen Mother … What about this son of mine, Rong Er doesn't want me anymore … "
