Chapter 199: Talking nonsense with open eyes
Chapter 199: Talking nonsense with open eyes
Either you save the adults and give up the children, or you save the children and give up the adults.
In short, only one of Hua Ruoyue and the child can survive.
Unexpectedly, Hua Ruyue and the child both survived in Ji Yuntang's hands.
This was a huge happy event for Cao, and her mood went from extreme sadness to extreme joy, up and down in one day.
There was no longer any contempt in Cao's eyes when she looked at Ji Yuntang. Her eyes were moist and she looked at her with great gratitude.
"Princess Ye, thank you for saving my daughter and grandson. I have offended you before, and I hope you don't hold it in your heart."
Prime Minister Hua also said: "The Prime Minister's Mansion will remember this great favor. If there is anything that the Night Palace needs help with in the future, you only need to send someone to tell us, and the Prime Minister's Mansion will definitely help you."
Ji Yuntang smiled slightly, "You are too polite, Prime Minister and Madam Prime Minister. I am just doing my best. In the coming days, please send someone to take good care of Madam Hua. Don't let her get tired during the confinement period. Be sure to take good care of the patient's diet, daily life and mood."
Prime Minister Hua smiled cheerfully, "Of course. I will have someone send the medical fee to Prince Ye's Mansion later. Princess Ye, please accept it."
Ji Yuntang nodded slightly. She had to collect medical fees for treating patients, so she did not refuse.
"If there is nothing else, I will go back to the Night Palace first. If Madam Hua and the young master have any problems later, you can always send someone to the Night Palace to find me."
Ji Yuntang stood up and left Xu's house. Prime Minister Hua and Madam Cao personally saw her out.
At the gate of Prince Ye's Mansion, Ji Huaiche had been waiting there early. When he saw Ji Yuntang getting off the carriage, he immediately walked over with a sullen face.
"I heard that you killed the baby in the prime minister's belly?"
Ji Yuntang: "???"
Seeing that she was playing dumb in front of him, Ji Huaiche said angrily, "The prime minister's daughter is bleeding heavily and the fetus in her belly is hard to save. Two midwives with ten years of experience in delivering babies said that only one can be saved. How dare you take this job?"
Ji Yuntang looked puzzled. She had been performing surgery for four hours and was physically and mentally exhausted. She didn't want to talk to Ji Huaiche at all.
"What kind of work I take has nothing to do with you?"
After hearing this, Ji Huaiche's eyes flashed with a faint light and his voice deliberately became a little louder.
"Yesterday you killed Doctor Zhu, and today you killed the baby in the belly of the Prime Minister's daughter. Poor Xu Shaoqing was a father for the first time, and he didn't rush back to the mansion in time to accompany his wife because he wanted to help you clear the charges. In return, you actually killed his child."
"Ji Yuntang, how could there be a woman as cruel and vicious as you in this world?"
As soon as the case of Doctor Zhu came to light, almost all the people in the capital were paying attention to this matter.
At this moment, Ji Huaiche publicized this matter in front of everyone. In addition, he was a member of the Dali Temple, so his words were more convincing than those of ordinary people.
Once these words were spoken, it basically confirmed the fact that Ji Yuntang killed Doctor Zhu.
The matter of Xu Muyan's child added fuel to the fire of the whole case, increasing the accusation that Ji Yuntang had killed two people.
Ji Huaiche not only scolded Ji Yuntang, but also dragged Xu Muyan into the water, saying that he deliberately covered up for him.
Ji Yuntang was once again shocked by Ji Huaiche's shamelessness.
She felt that she might have been too good-tempered recently, which was why she allowed those scumbags in Yongning Marquis' Mansion to jump around in front of her.
This family obviously hated her and wanted to kill her.
"Ji Huaiche, everything requires evidence. You said that this princess killed two people in a row. Please show us your evidence."
Ji Huaiche curled his lips in disdain, his mocking eyes almost drowning her, "Evidence?"
"The two midwives who delivered the Prime Minister's daughter said that it was you who refused to let them help and kicked them all out of the delivery room. Do you think you can beat so many experienced midwives with your ability alone?"
Ji Yuntang's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he sneered: "So, no one saw this princess kill the baby in Madam Hua's belly, and everything is just your own speculation?"
"I think you have been serving as the Right Junior Official of the Dali Temple for nothing these years. You have no evidence and just make random guesses, yet you dare to come to Princess Ye to ruin my reputation. If I don't let Chen Hu teach you a lesson today, you probably don't even know how to write the three words 'Princess Ye'!"
When Ji Huaiche heard the name Chen Hu, he felt pain on his face, and the shame in his heart surged up in waves, making him wish he could find a hole to crawl into.
Today, he actually knelt down in front of Ji Yuntang, the lackey, in front of so many people.
It was really embarrassing to even go to my grandma's house.
Chen Hu had rolled up his sleeves at this moment, and walked over ready to fight. His eagle-like eyes stared at Ji Huaiche fiercely.
"Anyone who dares to slander our princess will die!"
After saying that, a fist as big as a sandbag smashed towards Ji Huaiche's face.
In the blink of an eye, a voice rang in everyone's ears, startling those passing by and looking towards him.
"I am here on the orders of the Prime Minister and Xu Shaoqing to thank Princess Ye for saving our young lady and young master's life. Now that mother and child are safe, the Prime Minister has specially asked me to present you with 10,000 taels of gold and 10,000 taels of silver as a token of gratitude. I hope Princess Ye will accept it."
The person who came was He Chengshan, the most capable steward of Prime Minister Hua.
His appearance basically represents the intentions of Prime Minister Hua and the entire Prime Minister's Mansion.
When Chen Hu heard the words of the visitor, he stopped what he was doing. Ji Huaiche was lucky not to be beaten.
At this moment, he was looking at the boxes of dazzling gold and silver at the door of King Ye's Mansion, his eyes full of disbelief.
How can this be?
The prime minister's daughter and her child are safe and sound?
Ji Yuntang not only saved Hua Ruyue's life, but also helped her give birth to the child safely?
Ji Huaiche stood there in a daze, as if struck by a bolt from the blue, and the muscles on his cheeks were trembling slightly.
In order to ensure the authenticity of the matter today, he specially found the two midwives who delivered Hua Ruyue.
Both said that the baby was in an abnormal fetal position and could not be born, with the umbilical cord entangled around its neck. The only way to deliver the baby was to cut open the pregnant woman's stomach.
This statement is simply a fantasy.
Not to mention, if the stomach is cut open, a person will not survive, and the pregnant woman and the child will most likely die.
Furthermore, the other party's identity was there. She was the pampered young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion. No matter how experienced the midwife was, no one dared to joke with Hua Ruyue's life and the child in her belly.
Ji Huaiche was full of questions about how Ji Yuntang did it, but he had no answers.
