Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 200 The Princess's Embroidered Robe Has Come to Life!!!

The emperor truly cared about the child in Consort De's womb, as it was very likely his only son, so he was very attentive to everything.

Upon waking up and hearing that Consort De was in trouble, the Emperor could no longer sit still.

Regardless of whether Lan Ming was protecting the embroiderer who did it, currently in the palace, Lan Ming is probably the only one who can save the child in Consort De's womb, so in any case, Lan Ming cannot be kept locked up any longer.

Even the most incompetent emperor understands this simple principle.

To show his sincerity, he even personally appeared at Zhu Fang Palace to ask Lan Ming for help, and also invited Zheng Ze along with him.

Although he didn't know Zhengze, judging from Eunuch Fang's description, this person must also be a cultivator, and having another person would be an extra layer of insurance.

By the time the large group arrived at Consort De's palace, her condition had become extremely critical.

"Ouch—it hurts—"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please hang in there a little longer, it'll be almost over!!"

"I don't want to have any more children—I don't want to have any more children—"

"Niangniang, Niangniang..."

……

Even through several layers of thin silk curtains, Consort De's painful voice reached the Emperor's ears, and the Emperor's middle-aged face immediately contorted in distress.

"My dear minister, quickly think of a solution!"

The emperor was so anxious that his hands and feet trembled.

They were currently in Consort De's palace. Layers of silk curtains were hastily hung up to conceal the chaotic scene on the bed. The stench of blood permeated the entire room, and because the windows could not be opened, the air in the room felt somewhat strange.

"Is Consort De about to give birth?"

The eldest princess, who had come along, said in a low voice.

"But Consort De was only five months pregnant. Will the child she gave birth to be a complete baby?"

The eldest princess was talking to herself in a low voice, which was almost inaudible amidst the painful cries of Consort De and the comforting voices of the midwives and maids in the room. However, Yan Ningyu and Zhengze were not normal people, and they heard every word of her words.

A five-month-old fetus should not be fully developed yet, so the fetus should not be very big. Now, because of the black mist that entered Consort De's belly, the child is about to be born, but there is no reason for a difficult birth.

Yan Ning and Zheng Ze were somewhat at a loss, facing the several layers of gauze curtains in front of them. Consort De was giving birth, and at this time... it was obviously impossible to get close enough to watch. However, with several layers of gauze curtains separating them, and a distance of two or three meters, they couldn't understand the situation at all.

"My dear minister?" The emperor glanced anxiously at Yan Ning, then at Zhengze: "Master?"

"You all need to think of a solution for me!!"

In this kind of situation, it was completely inappropriate for men to be present. Although Yu Liu was still young and didn't understand these things, she knew that Yan Ning and Zheng Ze couldn't get any closer. The emperor was grasping at straws in his desperation, and they couldn't just do whatever they wanted. So she reached out her sleeve and nudged Yan Ning.

"I've accumulated some power now, and besides, I'm a fairy. I'll go in and take a look."

Not to mention that Yu Liu herself is a fairy, not a human, the constraints of human rules are enough for her to deal with the current situation, given that she is a woman.

The emperor also heard her speak, and looked somewhat hesitant. This moving garment was suspected of plotting to murder Consort De, but... seeing Yan Ning beside him, the emperor did not raise any further objections.

"Be careful."

Yan Ning gave a few words of advice, which was considered as her agreement to Yu Liu's decision.

Yu Liu was put down by Yan Ning. The two sides of her skirt supported her embroidered dress as if she were standing up, and she slowly walked forward. The trailing skirt looked a bit comical.

She stretched out her sleeve and lifted the gauze curtain in front of her, then quickly lowered it again and slowly approached Consort De inside.

The further Yu Liu went, the more tense her body felt.

I have a bad feeling.

The last veil was lifted, and the bad premonition came true.

The Empress Dowager was lying on the bed with a swollen belly, looking like she was carrying a large watermelon. It didn't look like she was five months pregnant at all; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she was ten months pregnant. On her high belly, a black, snake-like thing was coiled up, with its tail inserted into her belly. The scene looked very strange.

Consort De's face was thin, her skin even sunken in, making her look very much like a famine-stricken peasant, skin and bones. Her eyes were lifeless, filled with pain, and she mechanically cried out in pain.

As for the palace maid who was supposed to be delivering the baby, she stood there blankly, her eyes lifeless and her face pale, not even stepping forward to help deliver the baby.

A large pool of blood had already stained the bed, and that's where the smell of blood came from.

In the short time that Yu Liu was observing this scene, she felt, perhaps it was just her imagination, that the "snake" coiled around Consort De's belly had grown a little bit.

"...life force has been drained away."

After careful examination, Yu Liu came to a conclusion.

Consort De is no longer alive, and the child in her womb has probably already been poisoned. That black, snake-like object clearly originated from the child, and it is likely that the child in Consort De's womb died first.

"What an evil tactic!"

Yu Liu was both angry and surprised. She thought she would be scared when she saw this scene, but the opposite was true. Not only was she not scared, she even took in all the scenes.

Lifting her sleeve, Yu Liu tried to form a hand seal, attempting to mobilize the small amount of willpower that had slowly accumulated within her since arriving in this world. Since the sleeve had no fingers, Yu Liu wasn't sure if she could succeed; she could only try.

Fortunately, the sleeves were still reliable. Although Yu Liu's hand seals only folded the two sides of the sleeves together, the power within her body was still mobilized.

White light gradually gathered on the sleeve, slowly stretching into a line, like a snake, and moved to the side of the black "snake".

The black "snake" did not react.

The willpower circled the black "snake" twice, and knowing that it was out of control, the willpower shot into a straight line, inserted itself into the "snake's" head, and followed its winding body all the way into Consort De's belly.

"The child is indeed dead..."

Yu Liu frowned. The child, who had not yet fully developed, had long since disappeared. What was inside Consort De's belly was this coiled "snake" from the outside.

The "snake" hid most of its body inside Consort De's belly, with its tail end connected to the umbilical cord that originally connected the mother and the embryo. Through the umbilical cord, the life force from Consort De's body flowed continuously into its body, strengthening it.

"What an evil method."

Upon seeing this scene, Yu Liu frowned slightly, though the embroidered dress did not have eyebrows.

"Ah Ning, come here. Consort De is not giving birth."

After a cursory inspection, Yu Liu spoke to the other side of the gauze curtain.

"What did you say?"

The emperor was somewhat incredulous. Consort De was screaming so loudly, it was clear that she was about to give birth. How could she not have given birth?

The emperor was the first to reach out and part the gauze curtain, leading the way as he walked over.

Everyone looked at the situation on the bed and fell silent without prior agreement.

Only the emperor, upon seeing Consort De's appearance and the "snake" coiled around her stomach, rolled his eyes and fainted again in fright.
