The night is late, and the Spring and Palace is still brightly lit.

In the inner dormitory with the birth charm, the woman's cry of pain has lasted for several hours, and the palace maid with the basin of water, choshi, and vinegar and charcoal keeps coming in and out, but she still can't wait for the baby's cry.

Although no one dared to say anything, everyone knew that from noon to now, she had not been born, and the crown princess had met a woman's ghost gate - dystocia.

Except for those who are pregnant, almost all members of the Ming royal family gather here, their faces are full of anxiety, and they are as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

Queen Ma and Hu Guifei prayed to God and worshiped Buddha in the Buddhist hall, Boss Zhu paced back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back, and several His Royal Highnesses gathered around the prince to appease the eldest brother's restless mood.

The fifth and sixth elders gathered in the corner with a few imperial doctors, discussing something with a stern expression.

The first test that the fifth emperor, the imperial doctor, encountered when he took office, was actually the sister-in-law's dystocia, and this luck was really no one. On the contrary, Jin Yuanzheng, who has been reappointed as the Shaoqing of the Imperial Medical Temple, is secretly relieved.

If this is still when he is responsible, the crown princess has three longs and two shorts, and he and the specific doctor will definitely be killed by the emperor and buried with him.

Therefore, we must fully support His Royal Highness King Zhou as the secretary of this temple, at least the emperor will not kill his son to vent his anger......

Not only Jin Shaoqing, but also several imperial doctors present all thought like this, because at this point, the 'Walking Horse Sanzi Fang', 'Rabbit Brain Giving Birth San' used for inducing labor, and the 'Buddha's Hand San' for midwifery have all been used, and even the radical methods of acupuncture fetal and moxibustion maternal little toes have been used......

But the fetus is stuck under the uterus and doesn't come, so what can I do?

Judging from their years of experience and the situation that has come out of them, all their efforts are now in vain, and the final choice of 'keeping the big or the small' is about to come.

Baoda is to use a tool to mash the head of the fetus and then take out the stillbirth......

To keep small is to take the child by caesarean section. Of course, with the current medical conditions, even if the mother does not die on the spot, she will die from the subsequent wound infection.

So no matter how you choose, the result is cruel. But if she doesn't choose, the crown princess is afraid that she will inevitably have a tragic ending of one corpse and two lives.

Of course, no one would have said this earlier. The doctors still had to pretend to be trying to figure out a way until that moment came......

In fact, most of their minds are empty now, and they even have leisure to think, why does His Royal Highness the King of Chu keep listening to it on the sidelines? Even if it is on behalf of the family, it should be the prince who listens to it, his little uncle is here to listen so seriously, what does it mean?

Fortunately, the sixth child didn't know the idea of these old cultivators, otherwise they would have to reward each of them with a big competition.

He's just nervous now.

Because in history, the crown princess Chang died twelve days after giving birth to her second son, at the age of twenty-four......

Zhu Zhen wanted to avoid this tragedy as much as possible.

Not only because he is a friend of his sisters-in-law, but also because of the death of the crown princess, the impact is too far-reaching-

If the crown princess is still alive, then Xiongying's custody will not fall into the hands of the Lu family, and it is likely that she will not die in vain two years......

Take 10,000 steps back, even if Xiongying still doesn't keep it, as long as the sister-in-law is alive, the Lu family will never have the possibility of ascending to the throne, and it is impossible for Zhu Yunwen, who has a flat brain, to become a son-in-law.

Then even if the father and emperor still want to set up a grandson in the future, he will only set up Zhu Yunxi, who is born now, and will not set up Zhu Yunxi as a decrepit boy.

Therefore, I have to do everything possible to keep my sister-in-law's mother and son. The future of the whole country is at stake!

~~

Since last year, the sixth child has been secretly thinking about countermeasures, and even wanted to try a caesarean section at one point.

To this end, he recruited doctors and female medical officers who were skilled in obstetrics and gynecology and asked them about the feasibility of caesarean section. The good news is that doctors in this era are no strangers to caesarean sections, and some have even done it themselves.

But the bad news is that, almost without exception, the women who were caesarean section have died......

Zhu Zhen compared the medical conditions of later generations, and speculated that the reason was probably that there was no knowledge of human anatomy in this era; There is no good anesthetic technique; There is no effective suture hemostasis technique; There is no blood transfusion technology, and there is not even the awareness and method of disinfection and sterilization...... And that's just the intraoperative issue.

Basically, it is a miracle that the mother can survive the operation, not to mention the severe infection, sepsis, and septic shock that are inevitable after the operation.

He listed the problems one by one, and then found to his dismay that only a small part of the problems, such as disinfection and sterilization, could be solved immediately. Most of the problems require a long period of exploration and experimentation to be solved.

There are also issues such as resistance to severe infections, which are currently unsolved......

In the end, he came to the conclusion that even if he did his best in all aspects, the probability of his sister-in-law surviving after cesarean section was only one percent.

Although one percent of the hope has to fight, but when it really comes to that point, it can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

While he was thinking wildly, he saw Ning, the female medical officer in charge of delivering the baby, walking out of the inner bed exhausted.

The needles in the hall were suddenly heard, and everyone stopped talking, looking at the female medical officer with a solemn face.

The female medical officer walked up to the prince, knelt on the ground and choked up: "Prince, the situation of the mother is already very bad, and she can't delay it any longer." ”

"What do you mean?" The prince's voice trembled.

"You need to make a decision, whether to keep the big or the small," Ning said with difficulty......

Queen Ma had just walked out of the Buddhist hall, and when she heard this, her body shook, and Concubine Hu on the side hurriedly supported her.

"Fart, I'm going to protect it all!" The prince shouted with a pale face.

"The ministers have exhausted all means, but to no avail, if this continues, the mother is likely to die twice." Ning said in a trembling voice.

"You talk nonsense!" The prince slammed the table.

"Boss, calm down." At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang said in a deep voice: "As a prince, you have to calm down at all times!" ”

"Dad, I, I'm ......" The prince was in a mess, and he barely settled down: "I want to protect my ......"

"No, you have to keep it small." Zhu Yuanzhang said categorically: "That's our grandson, who dares to hurt his life!" ”

"Zhu Chongba, what are you talking about?" At this time, Queen Ma said: "The child can be reborn, and if the child is gone, it will be gone forever!" ”

"If you don't have it, you can marry ...... again," Zhu Yuanzhang muttered in a low voice.

"You don't talk nonsense!" Queen Ma's eyes widened, and she was about to quarrel with him.

"Don't worry, there's a way!" At this time, the fifth suddenly said loudly: "We still have a trick yet!" ”

"Really?" Everyone's eyes brushed to the fifth child, the first imperial physician of the Ming Dynasty, who became a lifesaver for the whole family at this time......
