“You, you, you!’

The nanny didn’t expect MO Ruyue to not only have a sharp tongue, but also speak so confidently. She was so angry that she didn’t know how to retort. She could only say that MO Ruyue was bold and impudent.

In the end, she realized that she was extremely angry, but MO Ruyue was still standing there without moving. If anything happened to Consort Li and the heir in her stomach, no one could bear the responsibility.

The nanny was furious and indignant. She raised her hand and was about to slap MO Ruyue.

Seeing the nanny’s actions, MO Ruyue bent down and sat on the ground, coincidentally avoiding the nanny’s slap.

‘Granny, stop shouting. The more you shout, the more scared I am. Look at my legs. They are so weak that I can’t stand up.”

MO Ruyue looked around as she spoke. The palace maids and eunuchs widened their eyes and stared at her in disbelief.

“You all saw and heard it too. It was the nanny who kept trying to scare me. I haven’t even gone in to give birth to the baby, and she was trying to beat me. Who would still be able to settle down to treat and give birth to Consort Li’s child? My legs are so weak that I can’t even stand up.”

“This granny is obstructing me in every possible way and doesn’t want me to deliver Consort Li’s child. I wonder what she is planning?

MO Ruyue seemed to be mumbling to herself, but every word was clear. The people around her heard her clearly. After she finished speaking, the palace maids and eunuchs also looked at the nanny with strange eyes.

The nanny was so angry that her vision turned black. How dare this audacious woman!

MO Ruyue’s commotion had drawn the people inside the room out. It was a young lady in her twenties. She was dressed like a palace maid and should be Consort Li’s maidservant.

“What’s going on? Is Doctor MO here?

“Do you want to die?”

If Consort Li wasn’t in a difficult situation, she would have killed these people long ago.

“This commoner is MO Ruyue!”

“However, when this woman just arrived, this nanny threatened to beat and kill this woman. This woman is so scared that her legs are weak and she can’t stand up.”

MO Ruyue was the first to speak, cutting off the nanny’s words.

“Come in with me quickly.”

The maidservant immediately pulled MO Ruyue up from the ground. She was so strong that MO Ruyue suspected that the maidservant knew martial arts.

The head maidservant turned to the palace maids and eunuchs outside the hall, and finally fixed her gaze on the face of the old woman.

“If you really delay the Empress, no one can live!”

“You guys guard outside. If you make any more noise, you’ll be beaten to death!”

The head maidservant threw out a few words and pulled MO Ruyue into the hall without listening to the nanny’s explanation.

This time, the nanny really couldn’t explain it even if she had a mouth, and the palace door had already closed with a bang.

After entering the room, MO Ruyue was no longer as weak as before.

“When did the Empress act up? Was it a normal attack in the month, or was it ?a natural birth, or was there something else? How long has it been? What’s the situation now?

The head maidservant did not expect MO Ruyue to suddenly change her expression, so she did not delay her reply.

“It happened at the beginning of the morning and was not yet full term. It was more than half a month early. The imperial doctor said that the Empress’ fetal position was not right.”

The words “dystocia” swirled in her mouth, but she did not say it out loud. She did not dare to say such words, afraid that something would happen to the Empress after she said it.

“Doctor MO, you are a divine doctor bestowed by the late Emperor. You will definitely be able to save the Empress, right? Our Empress.”

“I’ll try my best. I’m not really a divine doctor. It was just a coincidence that I cured the plague.”

MO Ruyue didn’t even need the head maid to lead the way and directly headed toward the source of the sound.

The maidservant saw MO Ruyue running as fast as flying and was even more anxious than she was, so she quickly trotted to catch up.

MO Ruyue walked all the way to the room where Consort Li was giving birth. When she opened the door, the doors and windows of the room were tightly shut, and there were many candles lit. The oxygen consumption was really high, and everyone in the room was drenched in sweat.

“All those who are not related to her, leave?’

MO Ruyue looked around and pointed at the window furthest away from Consort Li.

“Open that window to let some air in. In such a stuffy environment, even a normal person would be sick from being so stuffy.”

As she said this, she glanced at the two bearded old men in their forties. They were probably imperial doctors.

The maidservant did not dare to open it because the Empress was giving birth at the moment and could not let in the wind.

“This can’t be opened!”

Another old nanny in the room hurriedly stopped her.

MO Ruyue turned to glare at her.

“Are you the doctor or am I the doctor?

“Since you have such an idea, why did you call me here?”

The few of them were stunned by MO Ruyue’s words. In the end, the maidservant braced herself and followed MO Ruyues instructions to open the window a little.

The other useless maids were also sent out.

“Who’s the midwife?”

As for the two imperial doctors, MO Ruyue didn’t want to ask them anything. They had been here for half a day and were just standing there in a daze. They couldn’t help at all. Besides, the most they dared to do was to take Consort Li’s pulse and check how many fingers were opened. Even if they were beheaded, they probably wouldn’t dare to go and see.

Seeing that the two of them were still standing there, she frowned.

“What? Don’t you two understand what I’m talking about? What are you two doing here?”

Although the two imperial doctors were very angry and unhappy when they heard MO Ruyue’s words, they immediately thought of Consort Li’s situation and were happy to leave. After they left, MO Ruyue would be alone. Whatever happened to Consort Li would have nothing to do with them.

The two imperial doctors looked at each other and then left.

MO Ruyue had already taken Consort Li’s pulse and checked the opening of the palace.

In the end, she saw that the entrance of the palace did not show any signs of opening.

“What happened to Consort Li that she had to go into premature labor?”

“You’d better tell me the truth, or you might make a wrong judgment when delivering Consort Li.”

Hearing MO Ruyue’s words, the head maidservant looked at the Empress who was in extreme pain.

Consort Li was covered in sweat and her lips were pale. She was about to faint.

After hearing MO Ruyue’s words, Consort Li didn’t wait for the head maidservant to speak. She took advantage of the time when the pain was slightly less to catch her breath and opened her mouth.

“Where did you fall?”

MO Ruyue did not delay the baby’s position as she asked.

Consort Li only had the time to take a look at MO Ruyue at this moment. She was surprised to see that MO Ruyue was a young and beautiful girl. She did not expect MO Ruyue to be so young.

Consort Li was a little worried that MO Ruyue’s medical skills were reliable.

Those imperial doctors who were decades old and had decades of medical experience were all helpless. She was really worried that MO Ruyue would be able to do it.

Consort Li looked at MO Ruyue. At this moment, she could only treat MO Ruyue as her last straw.

MO Ruyue looked at the fetal position and felt a headache coming on. The baby in Consort Li’s stomach was breech down. This was really difficult to give birth to.

Logically speaking, there was still half a month before labor. The child’s fetal position should be smooth, but it was a fall that led to premature labor. The fetal position was not accurate.

It could only be said that Consort Li was a little unlucky. It was obvious that this was definitely not a coincidence.

With the current fetal position, it should have been another month before labor. Because of the fall, she was about to give birth, but the womb had not opened yet. This was the most difficult stage.

“Ever since the Empress fell, has she taken any medicine?

The head maidservant nodded and immediately went to bring the prescription that the imperial doctor had given Consort Li.

“The imperial doctor gave this medicine to the Empress..”
