An Lingrong's Rebirth: Red

Chapter 196 Fetal Insufflation

Seeing Shen Meizhuang so excited, Zhen Huan easily knew Shen Meizhuang's feelings for Wen Shichu.

It’s a pity that in this deep palace, they have no chance to pursue true love and escape from the emperor.

"Sister Mei, you are confused."

Zhen Huan sighed. Her words were almost straightforward. It all depended on whether Shen Meizhuang was willing to admit it.

"I'm confused? I think you're the one who's confused."

Shen Meizhuang did not realize that Zhen Huan knew about her affair with Wen Shichu, and she thought that Zhen Huan's little secrets had been exposed, so she was angry and humiliated with her.

The two of them talked at cross purposes for a long time before Shen Meizhuang came to her senses. It turned out that Zhen Huan had discovered her feelings for Wen Shichu and was trying her best to stop her.

"Not only towards you, I have also given up on the Emperor."

Shen Meizhuang looked at Zhen Huan's face for a long time before speaking, "In my heart, you and the emperor are the same person.

For his own benefit, he was willing to give up everything, including the feelings and trust between us.

You are such a person, and the emperor is such a person, why should I care about you?"

After hearing Shen Meizhuang's accusation, Zhen Huan finally stopped talking about her words of comfort.

She is essentially the same person as herself, except that she chose a prince and she chose an imperial physician.

Whether it was the imperial physician or the prince, he was just a straw for the two of them to escape from the deep palace.

As to whether this life-saving straw is reliable or not, it still needs to be slowly tested and tested.

Unfortunately, he did not have much time to test it. Taking advantage of the opportunity of Prince Dun and Prince Guo's rebellion would be his best chance to escape from the palace without implicated the Zhen family.

After receiving a positive response from Prince Guo, Zhen Huan had already made up her mind.

Anyway, I don’t hate Prince Guo, so there’s nothing wrong with following him and leaving the palace.

The Emperor is not someone worthy of trusting one's sincerity, and Prince Guo is most likely not the same either.

As long as I can leave the palace safely, I will be able to fly freely in the sky and don't have to care about anyone.

But Sister Mei is still in the deep palace, and her relationship with Wen Shichu will only harm herself.

At that time, no matter whether the baby in the womb is the emperor's or not, it will arouse the emperor's suspicion.

The best plan now is to stop Sister Mei's thoughts so that she can save her life in the palace.

"Sister Mei, there has indeed been a rift between you and me.

But please don't be angry, Sister Mei, think about yourself and the Shen family. Some feelings are not worth having."

Zhen Huan tried to hold Shen Meizhuang's hand, but was dodged.

She withdrew her hand awkwardly, not knowing how to comfort him for a moment.

"I don't understand what you are saying." There was no way Shen Meizhuang would admit these things to Zhen Huan. Even Zhen Huan could not interfere in the relationship between him and Wen Shichu.

"Sister Mei, there's no way you don't understand what I'm saying." Zhen Huan no longer tried to hide the truth. She simply made things clear between the two of them. "Sister Mei, do you really think I don't know how you feel about Doctor Wen?"

This time it was Shen Meizhuang who was speechless. She thought she had hidden it well, but she didn't expect to be exposed by Zhen Huan so quickly.

"Are you trying to threaten me with this?"

Shen Meizhuang's tone turned cold. She stared at Zhen Huan closely, not daring to miss any expression on Zhen Huan's face.

But she also knew in her heart that if Zhen Huan exposed this matter, she would have no way to refute it.

At this moment, Shen Meizhuang realized the seriousness of the matter. Her relationship with Wen Shichu was not to be seen in public, and once it was mentioned by people around her, it would be a disaster.

Her hands began to tremble, and then a huge fear swept over her.

Shen Meizhuang didn't have time to wait for Zhen Huan to say the next word because her stomach began to hurt so badly that she could hardly bear it any longer.

The teacup on the table was knocked over, and the tea soaked Shen Meizhuang's dress, but she didn't have the strength to clean her clothes or maintain her dignity.

The pain made her completely lose her strength, and she could only lie on the table, holding her stomach and crying.

This action scared Zhen Huan half to death. She didn't dare to touch Shen Meiyu and had to shout for someone to come in.

Cai Xing was the first to hear Zhen Huan's call. She rushed into the room, helped Shen Meizhuang up, and anxiously asked about Shen Meizhuang's current situation.

“Fuling, go find Doctor Wen quickly. The young lady looks pale and has unbearable pain in her abdomen. I’m afraid there is something wrong with her.

Tell Doctor Wen not to hesitate and come here immediately."

Fuling agreed and ran out. Caixing then hurriedly instructed others to boil medicine to preserve the pregnancy and prepare mugwort leaves in case of emergency.

Zhen Huan was anxious, but she felt inexplicably relieved when she saw that Cai Xing was able to handle the emergency in an orderly manner.

With such a reliable personal maid, Sister Mei's life in the palace will not be too difficult.

As long as she gave up her thoughts about Wen Shichu and gave birth to a child safely, she would be able to stay in the harem for a long time even if there was no true love between her and the emperor.

She could even rely on her children and family background to become a concubine or even a noble concubine.

"Mr. Xu, why does my young master suddenly have a stomachache?"

Cai Xing didn't dare to move Shen Meizhuang randomly, so she could only use her body to block her so that Shen Meizhuang could half lie in her arms.

She had given orders for everything and only had time to ask Concubine Xu what had happened.

But her tone was not very good, even Zhen Huan, who had a good temper, couldn't help but frown after hearing it.

Shen Meizhuang's sudden abdominal pain was most likely caused by the fact that she knew about the uproar that would occur if the emperor found out about her affair with Wen Shichu. She was so shocked that she had a miscarriage.

But she couldn't tell this to Caixing, so Zhen Huan could only shake her head to indicate that she didn't know yet.

"Wait for Imperial Doctor Wen to come and check Lady Hui's pulse first. If you, Caixing, doubt me, wait until Lady Hui's condition stabilizes.

I will sit here and wait until the noble lady Hui is free."

Cai Xing was about to open her mouth, but Shen Meizhuang grabbed her wrist.

She looked down at her young mistress, only to see Shen Meizhuang with a pale face, slowly saying, "Nothing happened."

Even the master said that nothing was wrong, so how could Cai Xing have the identity to question Concubine Xu?

She could only try her best to support her master until Doctor Wen arrived.

"Doctor Wen! Please take a look at the young lady. She has pain in her abdomen. I wonder if she has a miscarriage."

When Caixing saw Wen Shichu coming, she felt relieved.

But Wen Shichu did not take Concubine Hui's pulse immediately. Instead, he stood there in a daze and called out Concubine Xu.

"Quickly check the pulse of Concubine Hui. She doesn't look well."

Wen Shichu then woke up as if from a dream and ran over to take Shen Meizhuang's pulse.

Fortunately, although the pulse was disordered, the baby was fine. It was just a slight miscarriage and she just needed to take miscarriage-stabilizing medicine.

"Cai Xing, help Hui Gui to the bed. After she drinks the pregnancy-preserving medicine, everything will be fine."

After getting Wen Shichu's confirmation, Caixing finally felt at ease. "I've asked someone to boil the medicine. I'd like to trouble Doctor Wen to help the young lady check the medicine. Please don't let anything go wrong."

"Okay, don't worry, Concubine Hui and the royal heir are both fine." Wen Shichu wiped the sweat from his face. He had been jogging all the way here because he was worried that Concubine Hui was in trouble. Now that he had calmed down, he felt very tired.

He glanced at Zhen Huan standing beside him and bowed to her hesitantly.

"Doctor Wen, there's no need to be so polite. Since Concubine Hui is fine, please go check the medicine first.

After Concubine Hui drinks the pregnancy-preserving medicine and her condition improves, we can discuss other matters."

Wen Shichu said ok and went downstairs to prepare pregnancy-preserving medicine for Shen Meizhuang.

Fortunately, the medicine had already been boiling on the stove. Wen Shichu had not been away for long, so he hurried back with the medicine and fed it to Shen Meizhuang.

After drinking a bowl of pregnancy-stabilizing medicine, the pain in Shen Meizhuang's abdomen gradually disappeared. Sweat beads appeared on her face and her hair was stuck to her cheeks. She looked extremely embarrassed.

Zhen Huan walked to the bed, she held Shen Meiyu's hand and did not let her shake her hand off.

"Sister Mei, there are some things you must think about.

I won't harm you again, but if you really want to rebel once and consider your future, come to Yuedi Yunju to find me."

Zhen Huan glanced at Wen Shichu who was standing beside her, and couldn't help but tell Shen Meizhuang, "Take good care of yourself and don't let your sister worry."

Without waiting for Shen Meizhuang to react, Zhen Huan let go of Shen Meizhuang's hand and left Bitong Academy with Huanbi and others.

Zhen Huan left easily, but Shen Meizhuang did not feel it was easy at all.

She was torn between her conscience and her own desires at this moment, not knowing how to deal with her relationship with Wen Shichu.

If I want to be with him, I have to live my whole life in secret and under cover of darkness.

Being in the royal family, you no longer belong to yourself.

Every blade of grass and every tree in this palace belongs to the emperor. He can neither resist nor escape.

"Doctor Wen..." Shen Meizhuang raised her hand weakly. She tried to hold Wen Shichu's hand, but the latter was reluctant to give her his hand.

Shen Meizhuang called out again in confusion, and Wen Shichu then squatted down in front of the bed and held Shen Meizhuang's hand from behind.

"What happened today?"

Shen Meizhuang shook her head. She knew that the feelings between the two of them could not be discussed in detail, so she had to hide her worries and whispered to Wen Shichu that it was nothing.

She was just thankful that Zhen Huan hadn't told Wen Shichu about these things yet, so that she could still hold the hand of her beloved at this vulnerable and sad moment.

"Doctor Wen, Shichu, I just want to ask you one thing at this moment. Do you have any feelings for me?"

Wen Shichu held Shen Meizhuang's hand tightly. He didn't dare to answer, but nodded slowly.

"That's good. Then I still have some courage to persevere."

"You and I really shouldn't..."

Shen Meizhuang shook her head to stop Wen Shichu from saying the next thing. She then comforted Wen Shichu and told him not to back down easily in this relationship.

"As long as you insist, I will find a way to deal with it, Shichu, trust me, okay?"

Wen Shichu had no reason to refuse, so he nodded solemnly and looked at Shen Meizhuang lovingly.

Because this incident happened suddenly and the reason was not something that could be told to outsiders, Shen Meizhuang concealed the fact that she had a miscarriage. If anyone asked about it, she would just say that she had a bad summer and her appetite was a little poor.

As for Fuling, in order not to alert the enemy, Shen Meizhuang did not choose to touch her at this time. This made it difficult for Lingrong to take action for the time being, and she could not use Fuling to further alienate Zhen and Shen.

A few days later, Shen Meizhuang took advantage of the dim night to enter Yuedi Yunju. She had thought clearly about the relationship between herself and Wen Shichu in the past few days, and she also knew how much Shen Jiahui was affected by this relationship.

But she still wanted to take a gamble, betting that Zhen Huan had a way to let her have both family affection and love.

But if there was no other way, she could only live cautiously in the palace until the child was born safely and hidden from the emperor's eyes.

As long as she had a child, whether it was a prince or a princess, her position would be secure, and she would no longer have to worry about any negative impact on Shen Jiahui due to her falling out of favor.

"I'm surprised that Sister Mei came so quickly."

Zhen Huan had already asked everyone to leave due to illness. She personally poured tea for Shen Meizhuang and slowly pushed the cup across the table.

Shen Meizhuang just glanced at the cup of tea and didn't have any intention of quoting it.

Zhen Huan didn't care. She picked up the teacup and sipped the Lu'an tea carefully.

"What did you mean by that day?"

"Sister Mei, if you didn't know what it meant, why would you come to my place so late at night?"

Zhen Huan smiled slightly. She knew Shen Meizhuang best. As long as Shen Meizhuang valued someone, she would not give up easily.

Shen Meizhuang would even bet everything she could for this man, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all.

"I...what can you do to stop us from feeling so depressed?"

“Sister Mei, you should know better than me that every blade of grass and every tree in this palace belongs to the emperor.

If you want to walk in the sunshine with Doctor Wen, there are only two ways.

One is that you leave the palace with him, and the other is..."

Zhen Huan paused intentionally. She looked at Shen Meizhuang's face and saw her expression change.

She knew that she didn't need to say anything else because Shen Meizhuang already understood.

"you……"

Shen Meizhuang felt her tongue was a little tied. She simply thought that Zhen Huan had a way, but she didn't expect it to be such a rebellious method.

She didn't even dare to say a word, for fear that the walls might have ears and the two of them would not see the sun tomorrow.

"Don't worry, Sister Mei. There won't be anyone in Yuedi Yunju who can hear what we are talking about."

Zhen Huan was still drinking her tea leisurely, but in Shen Meizhuang's eyes, she looked particularly scary.

“A few days ago, you danced on a boat to win the emperor’s favor.

Why... why do you dare to do such a thing to change the dynasty today?"

Shen Meizhuang paused. After all, she didn't dare to say the word "rebellion", so she could only cover it up like this.

"Sister Mei... because of the emperor, my life is so miserable, you know it, right?

Only by flattering and trying to please him can you get his attention.

If you are not careful, you will be discarded like a worn-out shoe. Wouldn't you be unable to live like this?"
