The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

Chapter 896 The Gu I Raised Is Not Bad

When Shi Anxia was in so much pain that she was suffocating, she vaguely remembered that after getting married, she stood under the eaves every day to see her husband off and welcome him home.

Thinking of the days when her husband was away, she looked at the various wooden dolls lined up on the table.

Thinking of how he always smiled and called her: my little girl...

A burst of piercing pain made her unable to bear it any longer. She reached out her hand, grabbed the corner of Yao Sheng's clothes and asked tearfully, "Mother, where is my husband? Call him back quickly, I'm in pain..."

Yao Sheng cried and coaxed her, "Be good, Yuan'er will be back soon."

Shi Anxia took it seriously and muttered indistinctly, "He would bring me crystal bags and buy me sugar-roasted chestnuts."

Yao Sheng choked up and said, "Donglou Zhaoji was bought by Yuan'er. He was embarrassed to give it to you, so he gave it to me to take care of. You can eat it whenever you want..."

Shi Anxia's tears silently slid down onto the pillow, "No, I want him to buy it for me personally..."

Yao Sheng responded "Okay" again.

As he was talking, Shi Anxia stopped responding.

At night, Liang Yanbing specially mixed a calming incense, the curling green smoke was mixed with a hint of agarwood and borneol.

She gently lowered the gauze curtain and ordered people to place twelve rosewood screens around the bed.

The screen was embroidered with a picture of hundreds of children and grandchildren, and the golden thread flickered slightly in the candlelight, isolating the bed from the rest of the inner room.

After finishing everything, Liang Yanbing walked to the outer room, nodded, and led Shen Siyuan and Zhuo Qiran into the inner room.

Shen Siyuan was worried and asked in a low voice, "Is the princess asleep?"

Liang Yanbing responded, "Don't worry. She won't wake up in four hours."

Shen Siyuan glanced at Zhuo Qiran beside him, but said nothing in the end.

Zhuo Qiran also looked back at Shen Siyuan, with flames dancing in his eyes, "If you don't trust me, why did you ask me to come?"

Liang Yanbing was afraid that they would quarrel. Normally, the two of them did not get along. "Who said I don't believe you?"

Zhuo Qiran felt very aggrieved, "You all don't believe me."

Including Emperor Mingde!

That's all. He sneered in his heart. People who raise Gu are feared by others and have a bad reputation.

The mind of the poisonous insect is much purer than that of a human being. It is devoted to protecting its master and will not hesitate to die for its host.

Several people entered the inner room.

Zhuo Qiran and Shen Siyuan both stood outside the screen

Shen Siyuan suddenly said, "It is uncertain whether the prince consort is alive or dead now."

Zhuo Qiran's expression suddenly changed, "Why?"

Shen Siyuan shook his head. "I don't know the specific situation. I said this to tell you that we must save the princess' life and the baby in her belly at all costs."

Zhuo Qiran nodded in awe, indicating that he understood.

He was a rebellious man in his life and had never really obeyed anyone, but his husband was the only person he sincerely obeyed.

Not only because the prince consort killed the people of Wan, but also because she chose the fate-defying Gu of "I die, she lives".

A cold light flashed, and the three-edged silver needle had pierced the Shangyang acupoint of the index finger. The blood beads rolled down the silver needle groove and fell into the porcelain bowl, blooming strands of cinnabar patterns in the clear water.

Zhuo Qiran handed the porcelain bowl to Liang Yanbing, "The fate-defying Gu has been nourished with my blood for nine years. It used a silver needle to pierce the Shangyang acupoint on the princess's finger, and it was stained with my blood..."

"You can sense the sub-Gu?" Liang Yanbing suddenly grabbed his wrist, and three silver needles had been placed on his pulse without him knowing when. "Master Zhuo! Why are you telling me such an important thing now?"

On the skin pierced by the needle tip, an old wound as winding as a centipede was revealed - it was the mark of taking blood from the heart to feed the Gu every year.

Zhuo Qiran said nothing, pulled his hand back calmly, and changed the subject, "I just came back from Qizhou. I asked the descendants of the couple who were poisoned earlier, and they said that they were also unable to give birth after the pregnancy period."

Liang Yanbing and Shen Siyuan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and asked in unison, "Is that person healthy?"

"She is healthy, and has a better foundation than ordinary people. She can recover from common colds and fevers without taking medicine." Zhuo Qiran answered in detail, "Originally, the woman had a difficult delivery, but she survived the danger with the help of the Gu. So, the Gu I raise is not bad."

The last few words are somewhat arrogant.

Shen Siyuan patted his shoulder and said, "We trust you. We apologize for our previous words that offended you."

He was a man who could distinguish right from wrong. First, he could see that Zhuo Qiran was trying hard to prove that the Gu he raised was not a bad thing. Second, he wanted to stabilize the other party's mind and make the other party do his best at this critical moment.

Zhuo Qiran felt a little embarrassed when his superior patted him like that. He was used to being misunderstood, so he felt uncomfortable when he suddenly received respect.

Liang Yanbing also took the silver needle and bowed to him in a dignified manner, "Master Zhuo, please forgive me."

She had the same idea as Shen Siyuan. She was higher in rank than Zhuo Qiran, but she humbled herself and apologized, which was very sincere.

Zhuo Qiran's ears blushed slightly, "Let's get started."

Liang Yanbing brought the porcelain bowl into the screen. About half an hour later, Zhuo Qiran finally felt something.

He first said, "It's too weak." Realizing that the two might not understand, he explained again, "The child Gu is protecting its master, and it's running out of energy."

Everyone who heard this was shocked. No one noticed that Shi Anxia had opened her eyes.

She heard three people talking outside the screen.

"The princess is pregnant with three babies." Zhuo Qiran's voice tightened, his fingertips leaving three deep marks on the table. "The eldest baby in the navel took away 90% of the blood and absorbed all the blood and nutrients. The other two babies almost stopped growing. It was because the Zi Gu was feeding them with its own blood and essence, so they developed very slowly."

Liang Yanbing's heart started pounding when she heard this, and she suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Sure enough, Zhuo Qiran said, "But the first son in the navel position has reached the date of delivery..."

At this moment, even Shen Siyuan's expression changed.

He knew that Zhuo Qiran had already said it very tactfully.

The firstborn baby in the umbilical region absorbs all the nutrients from the mother and must grow up strong. But when the time comes, it is too late to enter the world, which means it will be suffocated to death in the womb.

Zhuo Qiran felt very sorry for the Gu he had cultivated. "It has to take care of two little ones and keep the big one from suffocating to death. It's almost in a desperate situation."

People all say that witchcraft is mysterious and unpredictable, but in fact it is just like raising dogs and cats.

The storybook says that cats and dogs are loyal to their masters, but few people know that the same is true for Gu.

Zhuo Qiran vaguely saw himself when he was twelve years old and just started raising Gu, feeding it with blood from his fingertips at 3:00 p.m. every day. The little insect was not even the size of his fingernail at that time.

Now, this fate-defying Gu knows how to quietly separate two strands of Gu silk to wrap around the princess' heart veins to relieve the pain when she is in extreme pain. It is more loyal than many people.

I remembered what my master said many years ago, "In the final analysis, the Gu worm is just a poison that understands human nature."

As Zhuo Qiran choked up and narrated, Shi Anxia finally realized that it was not because she was so patient, but because Zi Gu had endured more pain for her.

She rarely felt any discomfort during her pregnancy. Earlier, she was able to eat and sleep well, except for feeling a little anxious when hungry.

It has been in severe pain recently, I think Zi Gu is dying.

She was moved.

The sound of a night watch came from outside the screen. It was the time when the prince consort planted the Gu. Shi Anxia's voice sounded like thunder, "Where is the mother Gu? Is it in my husband?"
