Chapter 953: Pushing Forward

his injuries and strived to heal as soon as possible.Orcs have a strong ability to recover. Half a month later, Sang's injuries had basically recovered, and then he and Yan Jia started preparing for t...Liàn yī had finished her confinement and the full-moon celebrations for both of her children were over. Now she began her days as a mother, after all, she had nannies and a whole group of maids attending to her every need; she only needed to open her mouth.

Moreover, the whirlwind has also become a bodyguard for the two children. It's no longer clinging to ripples and spends its days with the children instead.

The ripples still asked curiously:

"Whirlwind, didn't expect you to like children."

"I find it very interesting that humans are so fragile when they are born."

"When I first found you, you were just a little kitten. You were struggling in the water, so pitiful. I was afraid I couldn't take care of you, changing all your diapers and cleaning up after you."

The ripples hadn't finished showing off their skills before the whirlwind flicked its tail and ran away.

"Why are you running so fast"

At this time, Dodo transmitted a message to Ripples:

"Master, someone in the backyard attacked Lady Gao, putting something harmful in her food. Her maid didn't notice."

"Give her a hand."

"Get rid of the child"

Doudou shook her flower plate and asked.

"Saving one life is better than building a seven-tiered pagoda. You mustn't do things that harm living beings and damage your good fortune. Filter out the impurities in what you've prepared, so that Gao Yiniang's child can be born safely."

Ripple transmission of sound.

"Got it!"

Dodo twisted her flower path and then went out to take care of business. Mainly, it was winter now, and all the plants had withered away. The ways to get information had decreased, so some things could only be done by Dodo herself.

Until Lady Gao's child was born, Dodo, under Ripples' instructions, had already helped her avoid five attempts on her life, and in the process, she herself dodged three.

Next summer, news of childbirth finally reached the courtyard of Lady Gao. This time, Madam Lin didn't need to intervene, as it was a concubine giving birth. Lianyi, being the legitimate wife, led a large group of people to Lady Gao's courtyard.

The midwife was someone Gao Yiniang had hired in advance, just fearing that Lian'i, the legitimate wife, would secretly try to harm her. Lian'i was also happy to be idle, and she didn't want to take on this thankless and tiring job either.

So she only brought the family doctor along, just in case. Then she sat in the courtyard waiting, with tea and snacks prepared by Mei Zhi. The screams from the delivery room reached her ears, sounding like pigs being slaughtered.

Waves are also helpless. Calling out like this now, will she still have the strength to give birth in a while

Only seeing that there were people coming and going in Gao Yi's delivery room, with basin after basin of blood water being carried out, Lian Ri knew that Gao Yi was in danger this time.

After two hours had passed, Lian Yi had already finished two pots of tea, yet Gao still hadn't given birth. Her cries had grown weaker, and she seemed on the verge of death.

The midwife, her hands covered in blood, ran out, looking terrified and said to Lian Yi:

"Madam, the child cannot be born."

"How could this be Is it breech position Wasn't everything normal before"

Ripples furrowed her brow.

"The baby's position is correct, but the child is too big, so it can't be born."

"Doctor, do you have any cure"

The ripples turned to look at the court physician standing beside them.

"There's nothing I can do about it."

The imperial physician shook his head and said, "I'm not skilled in women's ailments."

"Madam, there's one more way, but it might mean the master won't be saved."

The midwife gritted her teeth and said.

She knew very well that in a place like the Minister's Residence, if there were two deaths, she wouldn't end up well. She could only gamble on it.

What's the way

Liàn yī picked an eyebrow and asked.

"The doctor will cut the pregnant woman's belly open to take out the baby, but the adult will..."

Ripples thought about it for a while and didn't make a decision right away. Instead, she asked Grandma Zhen to report to Madam Lin, after all, she was the mistress of the Shangshu Mansion. She also arranged for Fu An to go and find Lin Yaizu, who had gone out to attend the banquet, to come back. Today, Mu Xiu had gone out early in the morning.

Mrs. Lin simply had someone pass the word, saying it was about protecting her child, after all, there were plenty of women in the back garden anyway.

After returning, Lin Yaozhu also made the same decision, placing more importance on his descendants.

In this way, in the end, Gao Yi's gave Lin Ya-zu a son but closed her eyes forever.

Lin Yaozhu hugged his son in his arms, he was overjoyed. He had another son! Then, he carefully said to Lianyi:

"Madam, Lady Gao is gone. I think it's best for this child to be raised under your care, so he can keep An An and Ning Ning company."

“I understand. Concubine Gao is also a woman who has bad luck. I originally intended to promote her to a noble concubine when she gave birth to a son, but unexpectedly, the son was born, but the mother died.”

Lian Yi shook her head and immediately had Mei Zhi bring the child over. She also summoned Gao's personal maid to inquire about it.

"Yunlan, when Gao Yiniang was close to giving birth, wasn't she eating a lot and not moving around much"

“Tell the mistress that Gao’s concubine is afraid that her child will not be well-born, so she eats more than usual. Her belly is bigger than that of an ordinary pregnant woman, so she is too lazy to move around.”

Yunlan, her face pale, spoke.

She only realized now that having a big child wasn't all good either. After her water broke, she couldn't give birth to the child.

And Lin Yazu's personal attendant was staring longingly at the child being held in Mei Zhi's arms. His heart felt like it was being scratched by cat claws.

Ripples glanced at the other person, who immediately bowed their head. Only his rolling eyes betrayed his mood.

The Ministry of Officials was still quite honorable. They gave Gao Yiniang a proper burial and sent silver to her family.

Mrs. Lin approved of Ripple's generosity in raising the child alongside her own. This is the bearing of a true wife.

If ripples knew what the other party was thinking, she would definitely spit on her face. She just wanted to see a commotion and wait until the child grew up to see if Mrs. Lin would still be so happy.

At this point, the task was practically complete. When she sent her original sister to the countryside estate at Hou Mansion, she had already received the news.

But none of this had anything to do with her, because the decision-maker was Duke An Ding, and it was his wife who sent her away. Xue Lian Yi wanted to hate, she should hate her own parents, she was just a tagalong, the better she lived, the crazier the other side would get.

When the two children were three years old, war broke out in the Great Huan Dynasty. The Qilü people on the grasslands launched a war due to severe drought, and they needed to survive by seizing the abundant resources of the Great Huan Dynasty, including food, land, and people. For a time, border guards sent urgent reports, and military intelligence traveled eight hundred miles to reach the imperial city.

At this time, the eldest prince had already become the crown prince. This border war was a great opportunity for him to make achievements and accumulate capital for his ascension to the throne. Therefore, on the day he went to court, the crown prince clearly expressed his intention to his father, volunteering to lead the army and drive the Xiongnu back.

Ripple, after hearing this news, thought for a moment and said to Whirlwind:

"Wind, please go deliver a message to the Crown Prince for me. I wish to meet him."

"Master, see him doing what"

"Your master wants to be in control, get rid of anyone who bothers him. For the sake of my children, he has to make his last contribution."een the family and his daughter, so he had been constantly frowning in worry recently. Only when news arrived of his daughter's return did a slight smile appear on his face.The Third Princess arrived...
