MO Ruyue gave Consort Li a prescription for a pain-relieving soup and asked the shadow guards to bring it over and boil it. Consort Li would definitely drink it later.

She went to see Consort Li again and asked about the situation. Perhaps it was because Consort Li had given birth to a son, but she did not have any reaction at the moment. Her mental state was quite good.

MO Ruyue asked Consort Li to rest as much as she could while she wanted to rest for a while. However, a eunuch had brought a lot of palace maids in.

It was because Consort Li gave birth to the Eldest Prince and the Emperor’s reward had arrived. Consort Li was also promoted to the Imperial Consort.

The same promotion and rewards were also given to Imperial Concubine Li’s family.

Coincidentally, Imperial Concubine Li’s father was the Great General who had taken care of Gu Ying in the past.

“Your Highness, you should pay more attention during your confinement. It’s best not to cry, or you’ll fall sick after confinement.”

After hearing MO Ruyue’s words, Imperial Concubine Li hurriedly nodded and stopped crying. However, she was very touched and looked at her son, who was sleeping beside her, with incomparable happiness and satisfaction.

After the reward was given, the other concubines who came to congratulate her were all stopped. Only then did Imperial Concubine Li rest in peace. She did not need to breastfeed the child. The royal family had a special nanny, and the concubines were not allowed to breastfeed themselves.

That afternoon, Imperial Concubine Li’s family came to visit her. This was Ji Hong’s idea. He was afraid that something was wrong with Imperial Concubine Li and that she wouldn’t even be able to see her family for the last time.

MO Ruyue looked at the dozen or so people who had come over and was so frightened that she hurriedly stopped them outside Imperial Concubine Li’s bedchamber.

“You can’t go in together.”

When the two shadow guards saw MO Ruyue’s actions, they immediately stood on her left and right, blocking the door.

“If I want to see Wan ‘Er, why won’t you let me in? It was the Emperor who asked us to meet her.”

This old madam was in her forties and was full of vigor. Seeing that MO Ruyue did not allow her to enter, she immediately raised her eyebrows but did not barge in.

“This lady is like this. Because the Imperial Concubine is different from a normal pregnant woman, now is the weakest time. If too many people go in at once, it will disturb the Imperial Concubine.”

It will also bring in the evil wind outside, which is very disadvantageous to the Imperial Concubine.”

“Then we can’t go in?

Behind them, a slightly younger madam, who was about thirty years old, quickly stepped forward to stop the furious old madam and asked MO Ruyue in a friendly tone.

“Yes. ”

“You can only go in two at a time, but you have to change into a set of clean clothes and wash your hands. After you go in, try not to touch the Imperial Concubine. Don’t get too close to the bed either. Just say a few words to her and come out. After all, the Imperial Concubine has just given birth and her body is very weak.”

The madams understood what MO Ruyue said. Although they were still unwilling, the health of the Imperial Consort was important. She was their daughter. Everyone carefully followed MO Ruyue’s instructions.

Imperial Concubine Li had fallen asleep, but they did not wake her up. When they went in to take a look, they saw that her face was pale, and all of them were so distressed that tears welled up in their eyes, especially the old madam.

When she went in and saw her, her tears fell like a broken string of pearls. Even so, she did not have the heart to call out to her daughter. Instead, after taking a look, she quickly pulled MO Ruyue out and asked.

“How is the Imperial Concubine?”

MO Ruyue was about to speak when one of the shadow guards answered.

“Old Madam, you don’t have to worry about Imperial Consort. This was unavoidable from the first day of weakness. Moreover, the fetus was not in the right position. It took a lot of effort to give birth. After a period of good rest, she will definitely recover.”

As the shadow guard spoke, she pulled MO Ruyue and squeezed her hand. MO Ruyue wasn’t a fool. She probably didn’t want the Imperial Consort’s family to know that it was a caesarian operation. It might cause a panic.

When Imperial Concubine Li’s family saw that their daughter was sleeping there, they could not stay in the palace any longer. Before they left, they found out that MO Ruyue was the one who delivered the baby for Imperial Concubine

Li. The old madam’s attitude immediately changed 180 degrees and gently held MO Ruyue’s hand.

“Then I’ll have to trouble Doctor MO to take care of you. This old one will be eternally grateful!”

“Old Madam is too polite. This is what I should do.”

MO Ruyue was overwhelmed by the old madam’s sudden enthusiasm.

“Then how long do I have to wait to see the Imperial Consort again?

MO Ruyue thought for a moment and said, “Old Madam, you can come and visit often. It’ll be helpful to the Imperial Concubine’s recovery. I’m sure the Imperial Concubine misses you too.”

“Oh, good, good, good. That’s good, that’s good. Then we’ll leave first. We won’t disturb the Imperial Concubine’s rest.”

Imperial Concubine Li’s family had been here for an hour, but Imperial Concubine Li had not woken up and had left in a hurry.

The chamberlain quickly reported to the Emperor and told them everything that MO Ruyue had told them.

“Before the Imperial Consort recovers, everything in the Imperial Consort’s

Palace will be done according to Doctor Mo’s instructions.”

After Ji Hong gave his orders, the chamberlain left. For a moment, everyone in Imperial Concubine Li’s palace looked at MO Ruyue before they started to do anything.

MO Ruyue did not understand them, but she also felt that Imperial Concubine Li was too weak. Why did these palace maids and eunuchs not have any opinions?

That night, Imperial Concubine Li could not fall asleep because of the pain from her incision. The lights in the Imperial Concubines bedroom were on all night.

MO Ruyue went to bed after midnight. When she woke up the next day, the sky was already bright. She hurriedly tidied herself up and was about to leave the palace when she was stopped.

Behind the two chamberlains, there were a few guards wielding sabers. They walked up to MO Ruyue and greeted her. The chamberlains carried a tray over. The red cloth on the tray was lifted, revealing three golden death-exemption medallions.

MO Ruyue picked one up and looked at it. There were words engraved on the back – MO Ruyue’s Exclusive Use.

MO Ruyue found it unbelievable. This Ji Hong was truly sincere. He gave her three death-exemption medals, and they were only for her own use.

The chamberlain saw the meaning on MO Ruyue’s face and hurriedly explained with a smile.

“Doctor MO, this is the case. This death-exemption medallion can only be used by yourself or whoever you say you want to use it. Other than that) it is useless to anyone else.”

MO Ruyue understood. He was afraid that someone else would pick it up if she lost it. At least Ji Hong had some conscience.

She had saved his wife and son’s life once and saved him twice. She had

exchanged it for three death exemption tokens. Not bad!

MO Ruyue took out the dragon-shaped jade pendant and placed it on the tray.

When the chamberlain saw the thing clearly, he was so frightened that his hands trembled and he almost dropped the tray on the ground. He steadied himself tightly, and his back was already drenched in sweat.

“Doctor MO, this…

“Oh, this is what the Emperor promised to give me before. Now that the death-exemption medallion has been delivered, this jade pendant naturally has to be returned to the Emperor.”

“Oh right, please help me thank the emperor. I’m going out for a while and will be back in the afternoon.”

“What about the Imperial Concubine?”

The chamberlain braced himself and risked his life to ask another question.

“The Imperial Concubine is doing quite well for the time being.”

The chamberlain replied with relief and went to reply to the Emperor.

Before MO Ruyue left, she had also instructed the two female shadow guards to look for her if there were any problems. She had to go out today.

When MO Ruyue reached the palace gate, another guard ran over and handed her a token that allowed her to enter and leave the palace as she pleased. MO Ruyue put the three death-exemption medallions into her bosom without hesitation. They were already quite heavy, but the addition of the waist token made them even heavier.

“Thank you so much!”
