Quick Transmigration: Irresistible Beauty -
Chapter 167 - 167: Loyal Maid Who Died Because of Beauty (37)
Seeing such a thing, Lu Heng could not help but say in a tone full of jealousy, "Ever since Lu Ming came, it was also the first time for Ran Ran to embroider patterns on clothes."
Lu Heng was undoubtedly feeling jealous because Yue Ran had never done such a thing for him before. And this special embroidery that she had made was also given to a child like Lu Ming! How could he not be jealous?
"I was previously a first-class palace maid, so it was a matter of course for me to be able to embroider, but my craftsmanship is not very good," Yue Ran said. "It will take more than a month for me to be able to finish embroidering this piece of clothing."
"As long as it is made by the imperial mother, no matter how long it takes, it will be this imperial son's favorite clothes," Lu Ming said. "This imperial son will cherish it like a treasure."
Seeing such a well-behaved and obedient Lu Ming in front of her, Yue Ran was so moved that she did not know what to say in reply.
…
In Lu Ming's eyes, his imperial father, the emperor, is majestic and lofty in front of everyone, but only in front of his imperial mother would he be humble. The eldest prince would always find his imperial father trying hard to flatter his imperial mother and caring about her in everything, while his imperial mother would do things her way, just like now.
Looking at Yue Ran, who was still angry with him because of yesterday's incident, Lu Heng picked up the bowl of bird's nest soup on the table and coaxed her softly.
"Ran Ran, it is all my fault," Lu Heng said. "I should not have ignored Ran Ran's dissuasion last night. It is all my fault."
Yue Ran thought of the scene last night where she had constantly called out for the man to stop, but the man was just too obsessed with it, so she let out an angry huff and turned her head. It was obvious that she did not want to talk to Lu Heng at all.
Seeing that Yue Ran was still ignoring him, Lu Heng placed the bowl of bird's nest soup down on the table with a small click and hugged the young woman into his arms.
"You cannot blame me for this," Lu Heng said.
Yue Ran sneered as she said, "Oh, could it be that it was my fault?"
Lu Heng smiled and whispered something into the young woman's ear, and the young woman blushed and gently hit him when she heard it. The young man, in turn, held the soft and delicate palm of the hand that had hit him very lightly and played with it.
What Lu Heng had whispered was, "Okay, do not be angry. And even if you do get angry, you cannot prevent me from sending greetings to our baby, right?"
Lu Heng tried his best to coax and deceive Yue Ran to let go of her anger with many love words, and finally, she let out a soft "hmph," which meant that she would finally forgive the man and enjoy the man's service.
Lu Ming watched this from the start to the end and could not help but say, "The relationship between the imperial father and the imperial mother is really good."
Lu Heng readily replied, "Of course, this imperial father will only love and pamper your imperial mother for the rest of this imperial father's life."
Seeing that Lu Heng could not restrain himself from showing his love for her even in front of his son, Yue Ran glanced at the man with pursed lips. And what happened next made Lu Heng so dazed that he immediately forgot what he was about to say next.
Yue Ran suddenly leaned over and sprayed a mouthful of blood. Warm red blood spattered all over the table, dripping down from its edges.
This sudden, unexpected chain of events instantly startled and frightened both Lu Heng and Lu Ming into fools. It was also at this time that the young woman's figure fainted in Lu Heng's arms.
Looking at the unconscious Yue Ran in his arms, Lu Heng yelled, "Ran Ran, Ran Ran!" in a panic. But there was no response.
"What are you all doing standing there in a daze?" Lu Heng questioned the servants angrily. There was uncontrollable fear and anxiety running wild in his heart. "Why do you servants not call for the imperial physician yet?"
The emperor's roar made everyone snap out of their daze, and they all ran out in a panic.
Lu Heng carried Yue Ran to the bedroom, while Lu Ming followed behind in shock and worry.
…
After all the harem concubines in the Six Palaces received this piece of news, they ran non-stop to the Palace of Celestial Favor. When they have all arrived, they only see that the palace maids are running back and forth into and out of the room while carrying basins full of red liquid, which is undoubtedly blood (mixed with water).
Looking at the situation, it does not take a genius to know that Noble Consort Yue's pregnancy was not going to go well; after all, she was clearly in danger, and so much blood was shed.
Chu Ning suppressed the joy in her heart as she walked closer with worry on her face.
It was also at this time that Yue Ran cried out in pain. Her face was extremely pale, and cold sweat rolled down her forehead to the tip of her chin. Anyone with eyes and ears could see and hear that she was suffering great pain.
Lu Heng held Yue Ran's hand tightly in his. He comforted the young woman, feeling extremely anxious and fearful.
"It is okay. It is okay, Ran Ran," Lu Heng said. "You and the child will be fine. I am the Son of Heaven, an emperor, and I will protect you and the child."
At the present moment, Yue Ran could not hear Lu Heng's comfort at all. Her whole body ached, and she felt that her child would be gone in the next second.
"My child, my child!" Yue Ran cried out loud.
"Do not worry, Ran Ran," Lu Heng said in a very gentle tone. "The child will be fine."
Lu Heng looked at Yue Ran with heartache. In fact, even though he himself felt that he might not be able to save the child at this time, but he still tried hard to suppress his worries to comfort Yue Ran.
Chu Ning stepped forward and asked with concern in her voice, "Your Majesty, you are the Son of Heaven, so how can you stay here? Why do we not go out and wait?"
As the empress spoke, she went forward, wanting to help Lu Heng get up, but the man immediately pushed her away.
"Get out of here! Get out of here!" Lu Heng shouted angrily and impatiently. "Everyone, get out!"
When Chu Ning fell to the ground, Li Xin immediately stepped forward to help her get up. In an instant, the group of harem concubines who watched the show with delight could reluctantly go out to wait for the result. It was not good for them to make the emperor unhappy at this juncture.
…
Inside the room, the imperial physician knelt on the ground with a loud thud and spoke with a trembling voice full of fear, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, the child could not be saved."
After saying this, the imperial physician quickly kowtowed three times with three loud bangs. His legs were shaking, and blood flowed down from his forehead to his chin.
Yue Ran lay on the bed blankly, unable to even feel the pain in her body. She could only stare sadly at the floor while shedding silent tears.
Lu Heng did not expect that his and Yue Ran's child would disappear so quickly that he was caught off-guard. It was only yesterday that he could still feel the little thing's vibration that seemed to talk and communicate with him.
"It is okay, Ran Ran," Lu Heng said to Yue Ran in comfort. "We will definitely have more children in the future."
"Get out," Yue Ran said in a very soft voice. And because her voice sounded too low, Lu Heng was not able to hear it at all.
"Ran Ran, what did you say?" Lu Heng asked.
"I said, get out!" Yue Ran suddenly screamed with all her might. "Get out! Get out! Everyone get out!"
After driving Lu Heng and the other palace servants out, Yue Ran was left lying on the bed alone, crying with her shoulders shaking. Her sobbing sounded so lonely and sad. It was heartbreaking to hear them.
A group of harem concubines were kneeling outside the bedroom with their heads lowered. They did not dare to raise them at all. They were afraid to look at the emperor's expression at this moment. Which one of them does not know that the emperor loves the noble consort the most? And now that the noble consort's child was gone, they could only hope that they would not get pulled into or involved with this kind of problem.
The imperial physician, who came out with the emperor, knelt on the ground and continued to say what he had not finished saying before.
"Your Majesty, the noble consort… the noble consort is… poisoned and… and... I am afraid... I am afraid that time... time is..."
