Your Majesty, the princess is fleeing famine with her child!

Chapter 186 Can’t give birth

The two families began to interact with each other, and through this, Yun Fuling and Ouyang Lan became familiar with each other.

Ouyang Lan has been studying medicine since childhood. He is very talented and a bit arrogant.

First of all, Jing ** was seriously ill, and Yun Fuling cured him with her miraculous hands. After Ouyang Ming went back, he praised Yun Fuling highly, which made Ouyang Lan very dissatisfied.

Can a little girl in her early twenties, even if she is a descendant of the Yun family, be better at medicine than her father?

It’s a pity that the doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau are divided into different grades, and not everyone is qualified to go before the emperor and treat Jing **.

Ouyang Lan now only treats the concubines in the harem and has not yet gained enough qualifications to serve in the imperial court.

Therefore, he was not present at the Zichen Hall consultation that day, and was unable to see Yun Fuling perform her medical skills with her own eyes.

Seeing that he was not convinced, his father invited Yun Fuling to his home for dinner.

Then, under the pretext of testing the younger generation in the family, he gave out pulse cases and asked everyone to diagnose the disease and prescribe medicine.

Yun Fuling thought it was fun and joined in.

After a few rounds, Ouyang Lan was completely convinced.

Yun Fuling's accuracy in diagnosing diseases and exquisiteness in prescribing medicine are better than his.

No wonder her father praised her so much, she is indeed worthy of being a descendant of the Yun family.

After this, Ouyang Lan completely abandoned his previous prejudices, and often sought out Yun Fuling to discuss medical skills in his spare time. The longer they spent together, the more they felt that they had similar personalities.

Ouyang Lan was invited by the Chu family to see a doctor today, but she didn't expect to meet Yun Fuling.

He immediately bowed to Madam Chu and Chu Ming and said, "With Madam Yun here, I won't show off my skills and make a fool of myself."

"This..." Mrs. Chu looked hesitant.

Although Yun Fuling's medical skills are good, the Ouyang family's medical skills are also good, especially Ouyang Lan, who is the imperial physician and the number one person in the Ouyang family besides Ouyang Ming.

Wouldn't it be safer if he and Yun Fuling treated the patient together?

Chu Ming finally had some brains at this moment and did not tell Yun Fuling in person that he did not trust her medical skills.

Yun Fuling saw what Mrs. Chu meant and took the initiative to say, "Fifth Uncle, why don't you come and have a consultation with me?"

After saying that, he looked at Madam Chu again, "What do you think, Madam?"

Mrs. Chu nodded hurriedly in agreement.

She also knows some of the rules for seeking medical treatment.

It is best for patients not to have more than two doctors treat and prescribe medicine at the same time, because each doctor has different experience, and even for the same disease, the treatment prescriptions they prescribe may not be exactly the same.

Faced with several different prescriptions, it is really difficult to decide which one to use, and it is also easy to offend the doctor.

Moreover, some doctors have their own rules and would be very averse to patients inviting other doctors to see them while they are seeing patients. They would regard this as a lack of trust in and insult to their medical skills.

The Chu family is also forced by the situation today and can't care about so many things.

Madam Chu's condition was really not good. The doctor who was invited at the beginning said that Madam Chu could not keep the baby and even her life was in danger.

Chu Ming became anxious after hearing this, so he had all the doctors in the city tied up and brought him here, and even sent a letter to the palace to invite the imperial physician.

However, the imperial physician in the palace has to go through a set of procedures from the time he receives the post to the time he is allowed to leave the palace to see patients, and it won’t happen so quickly.

Fortunately, Madam Chu was able to remain calmer and had someone visit every imperial physician's home to see if there was any imperial physician who was not on duty at home that day.

It just so happened that Ouyang Lan was not on duty today, so she was invited over.

When Mrs. Chu saw that Yun Fuling took the initiative to invite Ouyang Lan to have a consultation together, she was delighted and at the same time, she also had more admiration and respect for Yun Fuling's magnanimity.

Because Madam Chu was still receiving acupuncture needles, she only stretched her hand outside the bed curtain, and Ouyang Lan took her pulse through the curtain.

Yun Fuling recounted Madam Chu's previous pulse condition and the acupuncture points she had inserted.

Ouyang Lan nodded repeatedly after listening.

Yun Fuling's acupuncture technique was extremely good. Even if he were to perform the acupuncture, he might not be able to match her.

Although Madam Chu's fetal condition was temporarily stabilized by acupuncture, her pulse was still not very good.

Ouyang Lan and Yun Fuling looked at each other. Instead of telling the truth in front of the patient, they tacitly went to the outer room under the pretext of discussing the prescription.

Before leaving, Yun Fuling first removed the needles from Madam Chu's body and then calmed her down.

When Yun Fuling arrived at the next room, Mrs. Chu, Chu Ming and Ouyang Lan were already waiting.

Yun Fuling glanced at Ouyang Lan and said, "Fifth Uncle, are you going to say it or am I going to say it?"

Ouyang Lan raised her hand and said, "You go ahead and speak."

Yun Fuling nodded, looked at Madam Chu and Chu Ming, and said bluntly: "Madam Chu, General Chu, Madam Chu is in a very bad condition."

"Although I have temporarily stabilized her fetus with acupuncture, her fetal condition is very bad. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid there will be three deaths."

Although Ouyang Lan didn't say anything, she nodded beside him.

Upon hearing this, although Mrs. Chu and Chu Ming looked unhappy, they were not too surprised. It was obvious that they had known about Madam Chu's situation for a long time.

Yun Fuling thought about why the Chu family wanted to see her before, probably because Mrs. Chu’s pregnancy was not going well.

Mrs. Chu suddenly had a miscarriage today. It must be some accident.

Yun Fuling paused for a moment before continuing, "My suggestion is that we can't delay it any longer. We should let Madam Chu give birth as soon as possible."

Chu Ming seemed to have just found his voice. "I consulted the doctor and the midwife before, and they both said that Xin'er would not be able to be born this time."

"Besides, the baby is only eight months old. If it is born prematurely, I am afraid the baby will not survive..."

When he finished speaking, Chu Ming covered his face with his hands, unable to conceal the sadness in his voice.

After learning that the situation was not good, the Chu family looked everywhere for doctors and midwives, hoping to see if there was any way to help the mother give birth smoothly.

But after the doctors and midwives examined the patient, they all looked gloomy and seemed to be at a loss as to what to do.

Even doctors and midwives who heard the news found excuses and refused to come.

They were afraid that if something happened to Madam Chu, they would be to blame. Not only would their reputation be ruined, but they would also have to bear the wrath of the Chu family.

Yun Fuling sighed secretly.

Mrs. Chu is petite and has a small pelvis, which is not conducive to childbirth.

Now she was pregnant with twins, which made the already bad situation even worse.

Moreover, Mrs. Chu ate well during her pregnancy and did not restrict her diet, which caused the fetus to be too large and made delivery more difficult.

However, with Yun Fuling's medical skills, it's not like there is no solution at all.

"Twin pregnancies are prone to premature birth, and they are already eight months old. Even if it is a natural birth, it usually takes about eight months."

"Mrs. Chu's situation really can't be delayed any longer."

"If it's just natural childbirth, I'm afraid given Madam Chu's condition, she won't be able to give birth to these two children."

"But if we force the birth, all three of us will die."

"But I have an idea..."
