Chapter 825 Premature Birth

Luo Qingyan asked servants to bring out two chairs from the hall. Yun Shang asked A Xiu to sit down on the chair, and gently stroked her hands, as if trying to make her relax.

"First, do you remember what happened when you were kidnapped?" Yun Shang looked into A Xiu's eyes and asked softly.

After thinking for a while, A Xiu trembled slightly and bit her lips so hard that her lips were a little pale. After a long time, she said, "That morning, I took dirty clothes to wash by the river. Before dawn, when I passed through an alley on the way to the river, I suddenly heard footsteps behind me. Before I could react, I felt a pain in my neck, and then I knew nothing."

Yun Shang nodded. Then A Xiu continued, "when I woke up, I realized that I was in a carriage. The carriage so dark that I couldn't see anything clearly. My hands and feet were tied, my eyes were covered, and my mouth was blocked. But I found that there are many people in the carriage except me. They should also be kidnapped. Later, the carriage stopped, and we were pulled down. We were being carried like a cloth bag for a long time, and then we were all thrown into the dark room."

Yun Shang nodded slightly. Seeing that A Xiu had finished speaking, Yun Shang asked again, "Have you ever seen the person who guarded you and brought you food in that dark room? Did you hear anything they said?"

A Xiu nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I have. The people who deliver food to us are monks." A Xiu's body trembled for a while, and then she continued, "It's said that the Buddhist disciples are the most kind people, but they are all evil spirits. Three women among us were very good-looking, so they were taken away by the group of monks. When we left, we clearly heard them say that although they were all useless women, such beautiful women must be very tasty. Later, the three of them never came back. We all vaguely guessed what had happened to them, and we were also very scared. We feared that such a fate will fall on us. Fortunately, you came to save us."

As Yun Shang expected, the three women must have been killed.

"Think about it carefully. Did those people say anything strange?" Yun Shang's smile was still as gentle as the spring breeze.

A Xiu was stunned for a while. Then she quickly lowered her head and said, "Let me think. Let me think."

After thinking for a long time, she hurriedly said, "I remember that I once heard them talking. One of them asked the other whether the other group of people had been sent there. The other one replied that they might have already started working in that city. I haven't heard anything else."

Yun Shang nodded slightly and smiled, "Okay, that's all I want to ask. Where do you live? I'll ask someone to drive you home."

With gratitude and excitement written all over her face, A Xiu expressed her thanks in succession and said, "I live in Xisan Alley."

Xi San Alley was said to be the poorest area in Jin City.

Yun Shang nodded and turned to look at Luo Qingyan. Luo Qingyan smiled helplessly. Then he turned around and ordered the secret guard to take the

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

sitting on the chair outside the hall, looking very calm. Lin Youran's screams came from the hall one after another, sound very miserable. The servants hurried out with basins of blood in their hands.

Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan hurried to greet Lady Shu before asked, "How is it going, your highness?"

Lady Shu then looked at Yun Shang, sat up straight and said to her, "You came just in time. The imperial physician said that they could only save one of them. Your highness, you have good medical skills. Why don't you go in and have a look?"

Yun Shang nodded and walked quickly towards the inner hall.

The inner hall was filled with the smell of blood. Lying on the bed, Lin Youran seemed to be soaked in sweat, as if she had used up all her strength, staring blankly at the ceiling. The midwives voices shouted in a hoarse voice, sweat dripping from their forehead. One of them took a piece of ginseng from the tray holding by a maid and handed it to Lin Youran's mouth. "Your highness, please take another piece of ginseng. Let's have a try again."

Unconsciously, Lin Youran opened her mouth and take the ginseng into her mouth. It seemed that she even didn't have the strength to make such a simple move and her eyelids gradually drooped.

Yun Shang walked to the bedside and called softly, "Youran."

Lin Youran turned around and looked at Yun Shang stiffly. It seemed that she finally recognized Yun Shang. A light flashed through her eyes. She hurriedly said, "Your Highness, help me. Save my baby."

Yun Shang nodded, "I will try my best." Then she took out a silver needle from her sleeve. She pricked it into Lin Youran's palm and then do that to her belly. After that, Lin Youran calmed down. Yun Shang turned to her and said, "You're running out of strength now. Have a rest first."

Lin Youran didn't even have the energy to nod, and her eyelids fell. The midwife was stunned and quickly said, "Your highness, please don't do that. Her highness has a difficult delivery. If she falls asleep, I'm afraid she will never wake up again..."
