Li Zhang stood in front of the door of the main hall, looking at the rainstorm like a curtain of water outside, but his mood was like this piece of heaven and earth being washed by the rain, Zhao Zhen finally waited for a child, but he didn't expect that this child would be difficult to give birth, and now not only the child could not be born, but even Queen Zhang was in danger.

If it is possible, Li Zhang naturally hopes to save Empress Zhang's life, but with the current conditions, if she is disemboweled, she has almost no chance of surviving, not to mention that the current situation is critical, but Zhao Zhen has not yet made a decision, if it is delayed for too long, not only will Empress Zhang's life be overwhelmed, but even the child in her belly may die due to lack of oxygen.

Thinking of this, Li Zhang couldn't help but sigh, but at this time, he suddenly heard a rush of carriage sound in the rain, and then saw a carriage stop in front of the temple gate, and then a delicate figure rushed off the carriage and ran over, and when Li Zhang saw the other party clearly, he couldn't help but shout in surprise: "Tanuki, why are you here?" ”

"The imperial sister-in-law is going to give birth to a child, how can I not come to such a big matter, I have already brought the medical kit, how is the situation of the imperial sister-in-law, when will the child be born?" The raccoon dog was also half-wet at this time, but she wiped the rain from her face nonchalantly and asked.

The person who went to Li Zhang's house to get the medicine box was a chamberlain in the palace, so naturally he didn't dare to say much, but he just said that Queen Zhang was going to give birth, and Tanuki was very worried when she heard about it, so she came with the medicine box in person, but she didn't know the current situation of Queen Zhang, and even thought that she could hold her nephew soon.

Li Zhang silently took the medicine box at this time and opened it for inspection, and after finding that there was no problem, he said to the raccoon dog with a heavy face: "The queen's condition is very bad, now it is a difficult birth, and the imperial doctor and the midwife are helpless, if it really doesn't work, you can only use the last method, but this method can only protect the child, as for the queen, she ......."

Li Zhang didn't say anything more in the end, and the raccoon dog, who was still full of joy, was also stunned at this time, and after a long while, he grabbed Li Zhang's hands with tears in his eyes and said, "Big brother, you must have a way to save the imperial sister-in-law, right?" ”

"I'm not an immortal, the reason why people took my medicine box is to prepare for the last method." Li Zhang also smiled bitterly at this time.

As soon as Li Zhang's words came out, the raccoon dog also cried even more, no matter how Li Zhang persuaded him, it was useless, and in the end he could only pull him to the inner hall, but what surprised him was that there were only Empress Dowager Li and Miao Yuan outside the inner hall, but Zhao Zhen was nowhere to be seen.

"Mother!" Seeing that the Empress Dowager Li also seemed to have found support, the raccoon dog threw herself into the other party's arms and cried bitterly, and the Empress Dowager Li had already stopped her grief, but at this time, she was moved by the cry of the raccoon dog and wiped her tears again.

"Did Your Majesty go in?" At this time, Li Zhang came to Miao Yuan, who was also wiping tears, and asked softly.

"Hmm!" Miao Yuan nodded, then glanced at the Empress Dowager Li, who was hugging and crying with the raccoon dog, and said again, "After the Empress Dowager entered the delivery room and met the imperial sister-in-law, although the imperial sister-in-law was extremely weak, she still asked to see the eldest brother, and the eldest brother also went in for a while. ”

Li Zhang sighed again when he heard this, he didn't need to ask him to know that Empress Dowager Li should have told Empress Zhang her methods, and Empress Zhang, knowing that she was going to die, would definitely want to keep the child in her belly, and she called Zhao Zhen in to persuade him personally.

At this moment, I suddenly saw that the door of the delivery room was opened, and Zhao Zhen walked out of the delivery room in despair, and when he saw Li Zhang, his eyes regained a little brightness, and then he came to Li Zhang and said painfully: "Cousin, you come in with me!" ”

Li Zhang also nodded when he heard this, and then the two of them entered the delivery room one after another, and after bypassing the screen in front, Li Zhang finally saw Queen Zhang, who had a difficult birth, only to see that her face was like white paper at this time, her sweat-soaked hair was stained on her forehead, her face was full of pain, and her lower body was covered with a silk sheet, but the list was full of bloodstains, and the midwife and the imperial doctor next to her were all standing there with a panicked face, they had exhausted all means, but the child still could not be born.

"How is the Empress now?" Li Zhang asked softly at the moment, seeing that Empress Zhang's eyes were slightly closed, it seemed that she had fallen into a semi-coma, so he could only ask Zhao Zhen and the imperial doctor next to him.

"The queen was quite conscious just now, she grabbed my hand and made sure I could keep the child, no matter what the price was, she was willing." Zhao Zhen said with tears in his eyes again at this time, and he couldn't cry at the end.

Li Zhang couldn't just care about grief at this time, but turned his head and asked the imperial doctor next to him, and the imperial doctor was also frightened at this time, after all, if the queen's mother and son had any accidents, maybe they would also be implicated, and now when he heard Li Zhang's inquiry, he immediately told Queen Zhang's situation in detail.

After such a long period of production, Empress Zhang's strength has been exhausted, but the fetus can't be born at all because of the wrong position, they can use all the methods, but it still has no effect, what's worse, Empress Zhang already has signs of blood collapse, if there is no way, can only watch Empress Zhang die of hemorrhage.

But fortunately, the fetus in Queen Zhang's womb should still be alive, and the midwife can still observe the fetus moving, which makes Li Zhang also half relieved, because the fetus can move does not mean that the fetus is still alive, and even if it is alive, it may also cause other problems due to lack of oxygen, such as severe dementia, etc., so when Li Zhang said this method to Zhao Zhen, he also took a great risk, if the mother and son could not be saved in the end, or the child survived and there was a problem, even if Zhao Zhen did not blame him, I'm afraid that the ministers in the court will inevitably criticize him.

Without further ado, Li Zhang immediately opened the medicine box and took out the instruments that came out, and took out a large bottle of alcohol from it to disinfect the instruments, but he didn't expect Queen Zhang to slowly open her eyes at this time, which made Zhao Zhen also exclaim in surprise: "Wake up, the queen is awake!" ”

Li Zhang also hurriedly walked over at this time and asked, "Queen, how do you feel?" ”

"It hurts! It hurts! Empress Zhang said weakly at this time, although she is usually the queen of the world, but in fact, she is not a few years older than the raccoon, and the whole person is in extreme pain, this pain is not only physical, but also psychological, so she is also extremely painful and helpless at this time.

However, Empress Zhang quickly woke up from the extreme pain, and when she saw Li Zhang, she was also very excited and said, "Cousin, do you really have a way to keep the child in my belly?" ”

"Don't worry, as long as I am here, you and the child will definitely be fine!" Li Zhang said in a firm tone at this time, he has already entered the role of a doctor at this time, and naturally wants to give the patient a psychological support.

However, Li Zhang's words did not have any effect, and I saw a calm smile on Empress Zhang's pale face and said: "Cousin doesn't have to comfort me, the queen mother has told me just now, and I don't ask for anything else, I just want to be able to keep this child, I hope that cousin, you will fulfill my last wish!" ”

Li Zhang also sighed again when he heard this, and then nodded heavily: "Don't worry, I will do my best!" ”

After Li Zhang finished speaking, he immediately turned around and took out a bottle of medicine from the medicine box, and then asked someone to take hot wine and mix it into soup for Empress Zhang to take, this medicine is his self-made anesthetic, to be precise, it is an anesthetic improved from the army, because military doctors often have to treat wounds for soldiers, and even need to amputate limbs, that kind of huge pain is not at all tolerable by ordinary people, so there is this anesthetic drug, after taking it, the patient will be unconscious, and the feeling of pain will decrease, and the operation can be better performed.

The reason why Li Zhang's medicine box has these is actually related to Qingweaving, when Qingzhi gave birth to a child, he was worried about his life, and even thought about delivering the baby for Qingweaving himself, so he made a lot of preparations in advance, and put them all in this medicine box, but he didn't expect Qingweaving to be used, but Queen Zhang used it.

At the moment, after Li Zhang let Empress Zhang take the anesthetic, only about half an hour, the anesthetic had an effect, and Empress Zhang's whole person also fell into a drowsy, the main drug of this anesthetic is the mandala, although the later generations rendered this plant very powerful, gall is actually not uncommon, in fact, it can be seen on the roadside, it is said that the origin is in India, but it has long been introduced to the Central Plains, and because of the toxicity and was regarded as a drug, it has a good analgesic effect, and it is also the main component of the early anesthetic.

Seeing that the medicine had worked, Li Zhang immediately persuaded Zhao Zhen to go out, after all, the caesarean section was too bloody, and ordinary untrained people couldn't bear it at all, and Zhao Zhen staying here not only couldn't help, but might also leave a psychological shadow.

However, Zhao Zhen refused to leave, and in desperation, Li Zhang could only let him stay on the other side of the screen, leaving only a few midwives next to the delivery bed to give him a hand, and after he asked several midwives to disinfect their hands with alcohol, he ordered them to change a new list for Queen Zhang's lower body, and cut it off at the position of the abdomen.

At that moment, Li Zhang took out the sterilized scalpel in the tray, recalled the process of caesarean section again in his mind, and then used alcohol to depoison Empress Zhang's bulging abdomen.

At the same time, Zhao Zhen on the other side of the screen was also anxiously waiting, although Li Zhang did not explain how to take out the fetus, but he could probably guess that in fact, after getting along with Li Zhang over the years, he also learned a lot of knowledge from Li Zhang, including some medical concepts, such as he knew about surgery, and Li Zhang obviously wanted to use surgery to take out the child, which made him both worried and nervous, and wanted to bypass the screen for a look countless times, but finally stopped his steps.
