Kyoto Safu.

The woman in charge of the delivery continued to comfort and guide the woman on the bed to give birth: "Madame, force, ma'am, force, force, breathe deeply, inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale!"

Yulan, the big girl waiting by the bedside, urged the messenger to go to the small kitchen, "Quick, go and see if the hot water is boiled, go and bring it over, and then go to the small kitchen to see if the ginseng soup is boiled?" Go and rush. ”

"Madam, you hold on, you must give birth to a little son peacefully, God willing, Amitabha." Looking at the woman on the bed, whose face was pale from childbirth, a room of maids couldn't help but kneel down and pray for God's blessing. The voices in the room came and went, and the only thing that was the same was that everyone was looking forward to the early birth of the child.

The woman on the bed was Zhao Yunmeng, the head of the Imperial Shang Zuo family in Kyoto, and the only eldest lady in the Weiyuan General's Mansion, "Ah, it hurts, ah, it hurts, child, come out quickly, don't torture your mother, ah-"

After a cry of pain, Zhao Yunmeng fainted.

Seeing this scene, the midwife's mother hurriedly shouted: "Quick, go to the house doctor, Mrs. has a difficult birth, and if it is delayed, I am afraid that my life will not be guaranteed, so go quickly." ”

When the servants in the room heard this, they panicked again. The maid Yuzhu said: "How is this good, today the old man took the house doctor to the suburbs of Beijing to Nianci'an to ask the old lady for a pulse, what should I do now." ”

When Yulan heard this, she said, "I'll go and ask the doctor, you feed the ginseng soup boiled in the small kitchen to Mrs. and take care of Mrs. "Rush out of the room and go to the street to get a doctor.

It's nighttime, and the hospitals on the street are closed. Yulan searched for many in a row, but she didn't invite a doctor, so she had to run to General Weiyuan's mansion.

General Weiyuan's Mansion.

"Buckle, buckle, help." Magnolia shouted to the porter. ”

"Who, you're making a noise here, don't you know what this place is?" The porter's dream was woken up, and he was very unhappy, so he shouted to Magnolia.

"I'm the maid Yulan next to the eldest lady, the eldest lady is about to give birth, the house doctor was taken to Nianci'an by the master, you open the door quickly, I want to see the general, hurry."

When the porter heard this, such a big thing was not trivial, and he quickly opened the door of the house with his hands and feet.

At this time, Steward Zhao of the General's Mansion not far away also heard Yulan's cry for help, and after listening carefully, he was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly dressed up and ordered Xiao Si next to him to inform the general. After hurriedly dressing, when he saw Yulan, he didn't wait for Yulan to say, "Quick, follow me." Busy leading Yulan to the Moju Courtyard, the courtyard of the general and his wife.

By the time Steward Zhao and Yulan arrived at the Moju Courtyard, Xiao Si, who had been sent earlier, had already informed the general and his wife of the matter.

After Weiyuan General Zhao Changqing and his wife Liu heard Xiao Si's report, they were horrified, and Liu said nervously: "Isn't Meng'er more than half a month away from the delivery date, why did it attack early?" ”

Zhao Changqing comforted Liu: "It's okay, don't worry, you'll know when Yulan comes." ”

Steward Zhao and Yulan walked all the way into the inner room, saw the general and his wife in bed clothes, and thought, "Presumably, the general and his wife already know about the premature birth of the young lady, and now, I don't need to say more."

As soon as Liu saw Yulan, she stopped her body from wanting to salute, and hurriedly asked, "How is Meng'er, why did it happen early?" ”

Yulan saw that Mrs. was so anxious, so she said briefly: "Mrs. enjoyed the flowers in the garden in the afternoon, because the weather was hot, she ate a few bites of chilled watermelon at night, and then fell asleep, not long after sleeping, she cried out that her stomach hurt, and when the slave maid went to the inner room to see, the lady's amniotic water had broken, and the mother said that there were signs of dystocia, and the doctor in the house went to visit the old woman with the master, and the slave and maid couldn't ask for a doctor for a while, so they came to the general's mansion to ask the general and Mrs. ”

After hearing this, Liu sent his grandmother to find the government doctor Zhao Ai, and took Zhao's housekeeper to prepare the carriage, so that Yulan and the government doctor could take the carriage back to Zuofu. Yulan knelt down and said, "Mrs. Xie." ”

Zhao Changqing said on the side, "If there is anything, send someone to report it as soon as possible, Zuo Quanhan, I will send someone to tell you later, you take care of your young lady." ”

Zuo Quanhan was the first imperial merchant of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the head of the Zuo Mansion. Magnolia blessed the body and said, "Yes, the slave knows." ”

This is, Mama has brought the Zhao family doctor to Moju Hospital, and Liu asked the house doctor Zhao Ai to go back to Zuofu with Yulan to deliver Zhao Yunmeng.

On the carriage, Yulan and Zhao Ai briefly talked about Zhao Yunmeng's situation, and implored Zhao Ai to do her best to deliver Zhao Yunmeng, Zhao Ai replied: "Yulan girl, don't worry, I will definitely do my best to deliver the eldest lady and try my best to ensure the safety of adults and children." Magnolia relaxed and kept urging the carriage to hurry up.

A quarter of an hour later, Yulan and Zhao's carriage arrived at Zuofu. Yuzhu, who was guarding in front of the Zuo Mansion, hurriedly greeted the carriage of the Zhao Mansion after seeing it.

Yulan saw Yuzhu coming up, and asked puzzledly, "Aren't you taking care of Madame?" Why is it at the gate, who is staring at the lady? ”

After Yulan got out of the carriage, Zhao Ai also hurriedly got out of the carriage, and the three of them walked towards Zuofu. Yuzhu replied on the road: "I see that you have not returned, Madame has just woken up, but Wen Po said that some Madame is a little exhausted, I ordered others to keep an eye on it, and I will come to the door to meet you." ”

After hearing this, Zhao Ai said: "Miss, what are her symptoms, but her face is pale, sweating, and her eyes are blue?" ”

Yuzhu replied, "Yes, Madame's symptoms are like this. ”

Zhao Ai was shocked: "Miss, I'm afraid there is a sign of blood collapse, you go and order someone to boil a bowl of medicine, take elm, notoginseng, atractylodes, Puhuang, hedgehog skin one penny each, mugwort leaves, two coins of crane grass, acacia flowers, palm one and a half coins each, a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng, three bowls of water into a bowl of water, go quickly." ”

After hearing this, Yuzhu ran to the pharmacy. Magnolia led the way, and Zhao Ai followed Magnolia to Huayi Pavilion, where Zhao Yunmeng was. When she arrived outside Huayi Pavilion, she heard Zhao Yunmeng's cry of pain, Yulan's heart fluttered, and she dragged Zhao Ai into Huayi Pavilion.

"Madame, ma'am, the doctor is here, the doctor is here." Yulan stepped into the door of Huayi Pavilion, and called Zhao Yunmeng, telling that the doctor was here. Zhao Ai walked to Zhao Yunmeng's bed, and Wen Po whispered to Zhao Ai: "Doctor, madam, I'm afraid this is not very good, I'm afraid there are signs of dystocia, adults and children may only be able to save one, and I can't do anything about it." ”

After Zhao Ai heard this, he urged Yulan to get the decoction, walked to the bed, leaned over to check Zhao Yunmeng's pulse, Zhao Yunmeng noticed Zhao Ai, and said to him weakly: "Uncle Zhao, I'm afraid I can't do it, you have to keep my child, you must keep my child, I beg you, you have to keep my child." ”

Zhao Ai replied: "Miss, you rest first, save your strength for production, and I will do my best." ”

Zhao Yunmeng said weakly: "Uncle Zhao, I know my own body, I can't live, but my child is still young and hasn't come to this world yet, you must keep him." ”

When Yulan heard this, she knelt down and said to Zhao Yunmeng: "Madam, don't talk, if you leave, what will happen to the master and the eldest lady?" And the general and the lady, they have only one daughter, ma'am. ”

Yuzhu walked in with the boiled decoction, and Zhao Ai instructed, "Hey, Miss drink, Miss, you can rest assured of production." "Madame, hard, hard—"

"Wow, wow" A baby's cry sounded, and everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard the cry.
