After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Liu Yunxiang was like a fire burning in his body at this moment, and his whole body was sealed by ice, unable to struggle or move. This is no longer pain, but collapse and madness.

The midwife stumbled into the house, "Oh, why are there so many people outside, each with a knife or a gun, and they started fighting. Who are you?"

Liu Yunxiang's pupils shrank suddenly, a whimpering sound came from his mouth, and he really couldn't even speak.

The midwife also noticed something was wrong with Liu Yunxiang's condition at this moment. "I was sweating all over, and there was no movement in my stomach. I'm afraid something might be wrong."

Liu Yunxiang shook his head and beat the earthen kang feebly.

At this time, two women in palace clothes came in, standing on the left and right at the door, bending down respectfully, and then a woman wearing a purple cloak came in, with a noble look and a cold and arrogant expression.

Liu Yunxiang tried hard to focus his eyes and see the person clearly, but he felt his whole body getting colder.

It's the queen!

When Empress Lu saw Liu Yunxiang lying on the kang, her eyes sharpened, and she took two steps forward.

"How many pairs of eyes are staring at you, do you think you can escape?"

Liu Yunxiang was speechless and could only restrain himself from trembling and stared at Empress Lu.

Empress Lu glanced at Liu Yunxiang's belly and twitched the corner of her mouth, "Lao Qi is ruthless. He is a sharp blade. If the person holding the knife hilt asks him to kill gods, he will kill gods. If he is asked to kill demons, he will kill demons. Such a person should be cold-blooded and selfish, yet he would risk his life for this child, after all it is his own flesh and blood."

It is only natural for parents to protect their children!

However, Liu Yunxiang didn't know that the royal family was weak and everyone was a puppet of the powerful.

"But he can't protect himself. Where does he have the arrogance to protect you." Empress Lu sneered coldly, then turned her eyes to Liu Yunxiang's belly again, "Do you think you are carrying a girl or a boy?" Do you know that the royal family has no grandchildren yet, so if you give birth to a boy, you will be the eldest grandchild. "

"Do not……"

Liu Yunxiang shouted with all her strength, she didn't want her child to be the eldest grandson of the royal family!

"But let this child stay in your belly forever." Queen Lu sighed faintly, "I have watched this child Yan Mu grow up, and this is for his own good."

Queen Lu flicked her long sleeves and winked at the woman behind her.

The woman understood, picked out a handkerchief from her arms, and walked towards Liu Yunxiang with a sinister expression.

When she walked to the earthen bed, the old woman hummed, "My queen is kind, this veil is stained with poison, it will be cured in just one stroke, it won't cause you too much pain."

"Yan... Mu..."

Liu Yunxiang shouted desperately. She saw the veil coming towards her mouth and nose, but she couldn't hide.

"Your Majesty, I'm here with the emperor's secret order, please excuse me."

This voice was deep and had an edge.

Queen Lu's face darkened and she gritted her teeth bitterly, "Dog slave!"

The queen led the two women out again. Liu Yunxiang breathed a sigh of relief, but the midwife had already collapsed in the corner and waited for Aunt Zhang and the others to come in before helping her up.

Jinyan supported Zijin. The little girl was one against the crowd. She had several injuries on her body, but fortunately no vital parts were hurt.

"Hurry up and show my wife when she can give birth." Aunt Zhang urged the midwife.

The midwife checked her body, wiped her sweat, and said, "It's almost done. It won't be until dawn."

"Do you have experience? Is my little master a boy or a girl?"

"It's hard to say."

"Just take a guess and we'll be well prepared."

The midwife looked at Liu Yunxiang's belly and whispered: "Girls are treasures, boys are trees. Your family is about to blossom."

Aunt Zhang staggered when she heard this.

Although she didn't know many things, looking at today's strength, she knew that girls were a blessing and boys were a disaster.

Outside the ancestral hall, Queen Lu put her hands on the hand stove and covered it under her cloak. Her chin was slightly raised, her mouth was smiling, but her eyes were sharp. Shangguan Xu had his hands folded in front of him. He was dozing off in the middle of the night.

"If Liu Yunxiang really gave birth to a boy, I'm afraid the emperor wouldn't let him keep her, right?"

"I don't dare to speculate on the Holy Will. I just wait until the child is born and then report it to the palace."

"How the Yan family was wiped out, you know better than me, and the emperor knows better. Leaving Yan Mu behind has already made him sleepless, let alone another one."

"My dear, don't worry, just wait."

Empress Lu squinted her eyes. She could still clearly see the emperor's thoughts, but she couldn't clearly see Shangguan Xu.

If he was devoted to Yan Mu, he was supporting her son.

If he was just using her, this godfather cared deeply about his godson and once risked his life to protect Yan Mu in front of the emperor.

Aunt Zhang glanced out through the window. She was surrounded by people outside the ancestral hall, and the situation was beyond their control.

"Ma'am, push harder, it's almost time to give birth!" the midwife shouted.

Aunt Zhang glanced at Liu Yunxiang, seemed to have made up her mind, and went out carrying a basket.

"Our wife can't give birth. There is a kind of smoked grass at the midwife's house. She asked me to get it quickly." Aunt Zhang didn't know who to tell, so she had to lower her head and said.

Shangguan Xu took a deep breath and said, "Go."

Empress Lu was only focused on what Aunt Zhang said about 'can't give birth', and twitched the corner of her mouth, "A woman has a narrow chance of death when she gives birth. If she has a difficult delivery, neither she nor the evil creature in her belly will survive, so she won't. Who do you blame?"

Shangguan Xu smiled, "Your Majesty, you are afraid too."

Empress Lu snorted coldly. Yan Mu now holds the military power in the northwest, and she really doesn't want to offend him. Otherwise, Liu Yunxiang would have been poisoned to death just now, regardless of whether Shangguan Xu came or not.

As for the emperor's thoughts, she didn't know yet. She might blame him on her face, but she was relieved in her heart and wouldn't care too much.

Liu Yunxiang clenched his fists to prevent his consciousness from dissipating. He gritted his teeth and exerted more force. His whole body was tense and he was already on the verge of collapse.

Yan Mu...

Yan Mu, you can't help me!

"Come on, we've already seen the end. Madam, bite the bullet again."

When Liu Yunxiang heard this, she tried her best and shouted: "Ah!"

"He's born, he's born, he's... he's a boy!"

When Liu Yunxiang heard this, his whole body was really excited.

Do not! Do not!

She knew deep down that if it were a boy, the child would not survive!

"Wow wow..."

The child's cry came, but Liu Yunxiang's face was filled with tears.

What should I do? She can't protect this child!

At this time, Aunt Zhang stepped forward and took the child into her arms, "Madam, please hold the child."

Liu Yunxiang hugged the child, who was so small and soft, and cried quietly in her ear, but her vision was blurred and she could not see the child's face clearly.

"Son, I am your mother."

"Can you see mother clearly?"

"But mother can't see it."

Aunt Zhang wiped away her tears and whispered, "Madam, I have to send this child away."

Liu Yunxiang suddenly grabbed Aunt Zhang's sleeve and opened and closed her mouth, but could not speak.

"Madam, remember, you are giving birth to a girl."
