Reborn as the crippled king's favorite

Someone wants to harm Sikong Wan and her unborn child.

This person is hiding in the dark and no one knows where he came from.

Generally, those who do this kind of thing are women in the harem who are competing for favor.

But there was no one else in Lou Zixi's backyard except his wife Sikong Wan.

In this way, it would be difficult to alert the enemy.

The other party has already poisoned you. As long as he/she is not a fool, he/she will never poison you again and expose himself/herself.

"The food in the kitchen is no longer safe. I asked the secret guards to go out and buy some food for Wan'er to replenish her strength. Then I will try to see if I can reverse the fetal position."

"I will go there myself!"

Lou Zixi said immediately.

It’s not that he didn’t trust Murong Jiu’s secret guards, but at this moment, he didn’t want any more accidents to happen.

"it is good."

Lou Zixi held Sikong Wan's hand tightly and said, "Wait for me to come back!"

After he went out, he immediately gave a few words to the confidants in the mansion and then walked out quickly.

In his mansion, everyone's identity was checked and only allowed to enter after it was confirmed to be true. But now such an accident suddenly occurred and it concerned the safety of his wife, so he had to take action.

But as Murong Jiu said, we must not alert the enemy, otherwise he would not go out to buy chicken soup again.

"Yes, relax and don't think too much. Your biggest task is to give birth to the child safely. The rest will be taken care of by the men."

Murong Jiu taught Sikong Wan how to control her breathing while closely observing her pulse.

"Tell me if you feel uncomfortable. You must save your strength for the end."

Sikong Wan nodded repeatedly, clearing away the random thoughts in her mind.

No matter who wants to harm her, the priority right now is to let her give birth to a child. The rest can be dealt with later.

"My lady, the ghost doctor's thirteen needles are truly miraculous. I really don't feel any pain at all now. I just feel a little hungry and a little weak."

"The fetus is also very healthy. You have taken good care of him."

“But I can’t feel the baby moving.”

"He was tired from moving before and is sleeping now. If you move again later, he might have an attack. I will help you reverse the fetal position. It will be very painful. Can you bear it?"

Sikong Wan nodded, "Yes! I'm not even afraid of a caesarean section, madam, you know that it was difficult for me to have this child. My husband said before that it doesn't matter if we don't have a child, we can adopt one from my family to help us in our old age. But his parents died early, how can I let the Lou family die without a descendant? I'm still so young, I can definitely give birth to a child that belongs only to him and me, but I didn't expect fate to play tricks on me. I was very careful during my pregnancy, and when I was about to give birth, such an accident happened."

Murong Jiu thought, Sikong Wan got into trouble when she was about to give birth. Either he was an enemy who sneaked into the Lou Mansion, or he had been lying in wait, waiting for an opportunity.

If it is the latter, it means that this person must be very scheming and will not reveal his true colors easily.

The other party might not be someone in the kitchen, but he took advantage of the chaos and put saffron into the chicken soup.

It is not easy to find this person.

However, Sikong Wan's mentality made Murong Jiu shake her head. She said:

"Silly girl, think more about yourself and your parents before you think about others. Your parents are standing outside the door, anxious and fidgeting. You were born after your mother carried you for ten months. No matter how much you love Lou Zixi, you can't lose your life just to give birth to his child."

As soon as these words came out, Sikong Wan's eyes immediately turned red. She looked outside the door and whispered, "I am so unfilial."

"Alright, alright, don't think too much. You have to remember that you are the most important. There is nothing wrong with your body, and you will be able to have children in the future. If it really comes down to saving the older and the younger, I will definitely only save you first, and I believe Lou Zixi will do the same. He cares about you so much, can you bear to let him raise the child alone?"

Sikong Wan pursed her lips and shook her head.

She understands the truth.

but……

"I won't let this happen. Trust my medical skills, okay?"

Murong Jiu patted the back of Sikong Wan's hand, signaling her to continue regulating her breathing.

Lou Zixi came quickly.

He came in empty-handed and immediately took out the water bag from his arms as soon as he entered the door.

It turned out that the chicken soup was put into the water bag.

There were no extra bowls in the room, so Murong Jiu asked Lou Zixi to pour the water into a teacup, quickly cooled it down, and gave it to Sikong Wan to drink to replenish her strength.

Before drinking, Murong Jiu and his master checked it and both nodded to indicate that there was no problem.

Sikong Wan drank a lot.

"Are you ready?"

Murong Jiu looked at her.

Sikong Wan nodded heavily.

Murong Jiu said to Lou Zixi, "She will be in great pain. Let her bite something. Don't let her bite your hand. The smell of blood will make her even more uncomfortable."

She remembered that when she gave birth, Jun Yuyan bit her hand, leaving it bloody. She felt heartbroken for a long time afterwards.

Lou Zixi stretched out his hand, but immediately retracted it upon hearing this.

Sikong Wan smiled, and the tension and fear in her heart were relieved a lot.

……

"Why is there no movement inside? Wan'er had already started it."

Mrs. Sikong was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

Asked to sit down, she couldn't do it and could only wander around outside the door.

Senior Brother Cheng said, "It should be soon. The Ghost Doctor's Thirteen Needles are very effective, but they shouldn't last that long."

The voice just fell.

There were wails of pain coming from inside the door!

"what--"

The cry even sounded very shrill.

Madam Sikong's legs went weak and she lost her balance, almost falling backwards, but was caught in time by Lord Sikong.

"Don't be nervous, the Queen and Doctor Zhai are both in there, nothing will happen!"

Lord Sikong looked calm, but he was no less worried than his wife.

But as the Chief Justice of Dali Temple, it is normal for him to not show his emotions.

"This is reversing the fetal position. If all goes well..."

Doctor Miao and Senior Brother Cheng were also anxious. They were wondering what the effect of the Ghost Doctor's Thirteen Needles was, whether the fetal position could be reversed successfully, and how to solve the problem of the umbilical cord around the neck. These were all top priorities.

Sikong inside the door seemed to be experiencing great pain, and everyone present was worried.

Even if she was trying hard to hold it back, the sound was enough to make people feel what kind of torment she was going through.

But soon, the cries of pain suddenly stopped.

Madam Sikong almost broke in to check on her daughter.

"Adjust your breathing. Yes, inhale, exhale..."

Hearing the Queen's voice inside, Madam Sikong breathed a sigh of relief. Good, as long as there is a voice!

But just as Madam Sikong breathed a sigh of relief, she heard her daughter's screams of pain from inside.

"Wan'er!"

Seeing that Madam Sikong was about to bang on the door, Senior Brother Cheng quickly pulled her back.

"Don't go in! Madam Lou is about to give birth. She is screaming and it seems that the fetus has been corrected!"

Madam Sikong couldn't believe it: "Really?"

"It's true."

"The baby's head is showing! Let the midwife come in!"

It was the Queen's voice.

The child showed up!
