“Your Highness… The doctor is here.” Red Wolf finally arrived with a doctor, who was pale and covered in sweat.
Clearly, Red Wolf had kidnapped him and simply brought him here.
After the doctor was set down, his face turned dark when he saw the blood below Qian’er. “Why are you so careless when you’re pregnant? The baby will probably die since you lost so much blood.”
Lu Fenying roared angrily, “You’ll die too if the baby can’t be saved!”
The doctor fell on his knees in fear. He had been brought here in a hurry and hadn’t clearly seen the people in the room. He panicked completely when he saw the crown prince.
“Your Highness, please forgive me…”
“Stop apologizing and examine her already!” Gu Bailu shouted. Finally, the doctor crawled over to Qian’er and grabbed her hand. He frowned at the silver needles in her. “These are…”
“I used the silver needles to stop the bleeding. I can see that the baby’s condition is very unstable. Do something now,” said Gu Bailu anxiously.
The doctor was an experienced one. He didn’t say anything but simply plucked out the silver needles before sticking them back in with his own technique. He then fed Qian’er a pill he made.
“The baby’s condition is very unstable. I’m afraid that a miscarriage is inevitable. I can only keep her alive.” The doctor sighed, no longer panicked.
“I’ve said that you will die if you can’t save the baby.” Lu Fenying stood up, and took one big stride to stand in front of the doctor, who fell to the floor and shook his head. “Your Highness, there’s nothing I can do even if you kill me. With the massive blood loss and the injury that the baby has sustained, I can’t save it at all.”
Qian’er was dumbfounded. Her face was covered in tears, and her eyes were lifeless. She couldn’t even moan anymore.
Gu Bailu patted her face and said, “Qian’er, don’t be scared. This doctor is lousy. We’ll find a good one.”
Gu Bailu raised her head and looked at the doctor. “Can I move her to the bed?”
“Yes…” The doctor crouched on the floor, not daring to move at all. Since the baby would be lost anyway, it wouldn’t matter if the mother was moved or not.
Gu Bailu was about to pick up Qian’er, when the doctor raised his head and said, “You can’t carry her. Do you not know that you’re pregnant too?”
Gu Bailu’s face turned dark. Do you have to say it out loud?
Lu Fenying’s face turned even darker. The two Daoist nuns had come to the crown prince’s residence as master and disciple, but both of them were pregnant?
Did they consider the crown prince’s residence a labor ward?
“You better explain yourselves to me clearly,” said Lu Fenying coldly.
Gu Bailu picked up Qian’er and was about to leave, but Lu Fenying took Qian’er and placed her on the bed not far away. “Where do you want to take her when she’s so badly hurt? Just put her here.”
“Anywhere is fine. Go get a better doctor already!” Gu Bailu had no time to argue with him.
Lu Fenying frowned. “Didn’t he say that the baby can’t be saved? Let the doctor die with the baby.”
What?
Your Highness, what is that line of thinking?
The baby can’t be saved, so you kill the doctor to keep the baby company in the other world?
You picked this doctor not because he’s good at treating patients, but because he’d be good company?
“Your Highness, please get a better doctor. At least find a royal doctor,” Gu Bailu begged.
“The royal doctors treat the royal family. Why would they treat her?” Lu Fenying was in an awful mood. He felt that he had been tricked by the two Daoist nuns who were both fakes.
