Chapter 310 Dystocia
Chapter 310 Dystocia
"Ah!" Yun Jinxi suddenly let out a shrill scream, holding her bulging belly tightly with both hands, her face full of pain. "My stomach... hurts so much! My baby... I think I'm about to give birth!" She screamed in panic, her voice trembling violently, and beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.
The second prince was stunned when he heard Yun Jinxi's cry. He stared at Yun Jinxi's painful face with wide eyes, and was at a loss for a moment. In a panic, he suddenly picked up his palm and slapped Concubine Qi in the face.
"It's all your fault, bitch! If anything happens to Jinxi and the child, I will never let you go!" After saying that, he picked up Yun Jinxi and shouted anxiously:
"Hurry! Go and get a doctor for me! Hurry up! If anything goes wrong with the baby in my concubine's belly, I will make sure all of you die without a burial place!" At this moment, the second prince's originally handsome eyes turned scarlet, revealing deep fear and panic.
Yun Jinxi, lying on the bed, tightly grasped the Second Prince's arm, tears pouring out like a flood. "Prince, please save our child!"
She begged in tears, "This child has gone into labor prematurely, and ordinary doctors may not be able to handle it. Your Majesty, please go and invite Yun Yuxi! It doesn't matter how much money it costs, as long as I and my child can be saved. Without her, I'm really afraid that there will be two deaths!"
Yun Jinxi's words hit the Second Prince's heart like a heavy hammer, causing him to feel a sharp pain. He gritted his teeth, turned around and shouted to the midwife beside him:
"Do as the concubine said immediately! Send someone to invite Yun Yuxi here quickly!" The midwife did not dare to delay and responded quickly, "Yes, Your Majesty! I will give the order right away." Then, she turned around hurriedly and told the maids to boil hot water to prepare for the upcoming delivery moment.
However, just as everyone was busy, Yun Jinxi finally couldn't stand the pain and fainted. The sudden change scared the midwife so much that she turned pale and shouted at the top of her voice: "Oh no! The concubine fainted! Someone come quickly!" The whole room was suddenly in chaos.
"My concubine, you can't faint. The baby hasn't come out yet. If you faint, what will happen to the child? Your Highness, Your Highness, the concubine is in premature labor due to external stimulation. I'm afraid I can't deliver the baby." The midwife turned pale with fright.
Prepare the horses for me. I will go to the Regent's Palace in person to invite Yun Yuxi. You all take good care of the concubine. Nothing must happen to her, otherwise you will have your heads in danger.
The Second Prince galloped all the way towards the Regent's Palace. At this time, Yun Yuxi, accompanied by Banxia, strolled around the garden. The weather in mid-April was extremely comfortable.
"Banxia, tomorrow ask the craftsmen outside to measure the sizes of everyone in the mansion and make two sets of clothes for each person. The weather will be getting hotter and hotter in the future, and the servants in our mansion are so loyal, we must not let them down." Yun Yuxi was arranging tomorrow's matters while enjoying the beautiful scenery.
At the gate of the Prince Regent's Palace, the Second Prince dismounted from his horse. The guard at the gate immediately saluted and said, "Greetings, Your Highness. Is there anything urgent? I saw you galloping all the way here."
"Please go and inform them quickly. I need to talk to my uncle and princess about something. Please forgive me as human lives are at stake." The second prince spoke in a rare gentle tone and humble manner.
He knew in his heart that the baby in Yun Jinxi's belly could not be delayed. That child was also very important. He was the first grandson of the royal family and there could be no mistakes.
"Please wait here for a moment, Your Highness. I will go and report right away." After the guard bowed respectfully, he quickly turned around and walked quickly towards the study.
After a while, the guard came to the door of the study and knocked gently. After getting permission, he pushed the door open and said, "Your Highness, the Second Prince is here to visit. He said that it is a matter of life and death and he must see you and the princess. What do you think?"
Yan Wuque was sitting at the desk. He frowned slightly after hearing the report. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Go and take him to the flower hall first. The prince and the princess will be there soon. Remember, don't neglect the second prince. Go and let him wait for a while."
The guards took orders and left, while Yan Wuque was pushed by Chi Yan in a wheelchair to the garden. On the way, he happened to meet Yun Yuxi who was leisurely playing. She was wearing a light blue long dress with fluttering sleeves, like a fairy descending from the earth.
"Yu'er." Yan Wuque called softly and extended his hand to Yun Yuxi.
Yun Yuxi looked over when she heard the voice, and a sweet smile immediately broke out on her face when she saw Yan Wuque. She quickly walked up to him and held his hand.
"What's the matter?" Yun Yuxi asked gently.
Yan Wuque said with a serious expression: "The Second Prince is here. Seeing how flustered he is, I think something must have happened in his house, and he may need your help. When the guards came to report just now, they described the Second Prince as being extremely nervous. I think this matter is probably no trivial matter."
Yun Yuxi's heart tightened, but she quickly regained her composure and nodded, saying, "In that case, let's go over and take a look." After that, she ordered, "Chiyan, take Banxia to get my medicine box. Banxia, you stay in the mansion and wait for orders, and let Yuelan go with me to the flower hall."
Yun Yuxi arranged everything in an orderly manner, but in her heart she was secretly wondering who was injured that could have alarmed the Second Prince to take action personally.
However, judging from the current situation, she would most likely not be able to refuse this request. So, she took a deep breath, pushed Yan Wuque and quickened her pace towards the flower hall.
The Second Prince had no appetite for tea. The butler was greeting him politely while the Second Prince was looking around. He knew that if he delayed any longer, Yun Jinxi and the fetus in her belly would be in danger.
"Uncle, aunt, please save Jinxi and the baby in her belly. She fell and fainted. What should we do? Jinxi is your sister, you must save her and the baby." The second prince was a little incoherent.
Although Yun Yuxi hated Yun Jinxi very much, she was a kind-hearted doctor after all. She didn't care about the hatred at this moment and was extremely anxious. "Hurry up and leave. If you delay any longer, I'm afraid I won't be able to save you. Your Majesty, you wait for me in the mansion. Yuelan, let's go."
The second prince was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed. He didn't expect that Yun Yuxi didn't make things difficult for him. It was he who was petty.
In the delivery room, Yun Jinxi woke up in pain again, howling one after another, which was very distressing. Concubine Qi was so scared that her face turned pale and she was trembling. The maid supported her and prayed silently in her heart that nothing would happen to her. If the child was gone, she was afraid that the Queen would not forgive her.
"Jinxi. Hold on, the prince has gone to call Yun Yuxi, you must hold on." Yun Ruyan came and saw Yun Jinxi's painful expression. After all, she felt worried about her beloved sister since she was a child, and there was no jealousy at all.
"Sister, I'm sorry, I was ignorant. If I can't make it this time, please treat my child well. I'll work like a slave to repay you in the next life. Tell the prince that I don't regret marrying him," Yun Jinxi said as if she was giving instructions for her last wishes.
"Everyone go out. The prince will have someone guard the door. No one is allowed to disturb me. Yuelan will stay to be my assistant. The prince will send someone to invite the imperial physician. The midwife will stay," Yun Yuxi ordered loudly.
"Second sister, you are finally here. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. Please save the child, save him. He is innocent. I will never go against you again." Yun Jinxi seemed to see hope when she saw Yun Yuxi.
"Second sister, Jinxi is left to you." Yun Ruyan gave Yun Yuxi a complicated look and turned away.
"Shut up, save your energy, it will be used later. No matter what you die, you have to be fine. Do you want your child to be without a mother? Listen to my command and do as I say."
Outside the room, the second prince saw Yun Ruyan looking a little tired. "Yan'er, you should go back first. You are pregnant, please take care of yourself."
Then he looked at Qi Ling'er fiercely and said, "Go back to your courtyard. I didn't expect you to be so vicious and murder the royal heir. Go back and reflect on yourself. I don't want to see you anymore."
Qi Ling'er felt guilty and scared, tears streaming down her face, and she left with the help of her maid.
