Chapter 672: Keep The Child

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Your Imperial Highness, Your Imperial Highness, are you alright?” Su Ying heard Zhou Qing’s anxious voice just as she emerged from the interspatial store.

“I’m fine. I was a little sleepy just now and almost fell asleep.”

“Your Imperial Highness, the water must be getting cold. You should get out first.”

Su Ying gave a reply and quickly washed herself in the water before changing into a clean robe and walking out.

Zhou Qing only felt relieved when she saw that Su Ying was fine. “If Your Imperial Highness is feeling unwell, you must inform me immediately.” Su Ying found her anxious expression a little comical. “Don’t worry. I know my own body.”

How could Zhou Qing be at ease? She brought some snacks for Su Ying and said, “Your Imperial Highness, have some snacks. If you get tired of sitting, I can accompany you to take a walk in the courtyard.”

Su Ying took a piece of mung bean cake. This was made by the new pastry chef from the south who had just joined the Imperial kitchen. This snack was different from the snacks in the capital city. The minty taste of this mung bean cake could instantly spread through the whole mouth with just one bite.

After she got pregnant, she didn’t like other snacks, but she liked to eat this.

After eating two pieces, Su Ying found a book and leaned against a soft cushion to read.

As the sky gradually became dark, the sound of footsteps could be heard outside.

Su Ying raised her eyes and saw Xiao Jin walking in.

The moment their eyes met, Xiao Jin’s eyes softened. He walked up to her and held her hand. “Why did you only eat two pieces of mung bean cake today? Do you have no appetite?”

Su Ying wasn’t surprised that Xiao Jin knew her every move. He had most likely been scared out of his wits over the past few days.

“I just ate not long ago. I’m still full.”

Xiao Jin pinched her palm a little. He kept feeling that she had lost some weight.

“Zhou Qing, can you go check whether dinner is ready?”

Zhou Qing acknowledged the order and went to wait outside the hall.

Xiao Jin understood that Su Ying had something to say to him, so he signaled with his eyes for Zhang Shuming to leave as well. The eunuch even considerately closed the door after himself.

Su Ying looked at Xiao Jin and said slowly, “Tell me the truth. What did the Imperial Physician say to you?”

Xiao Jin’s sharp brows knitted slightly. “Yingying, don’t let your imagination run wild…”

Su Ying shook her head and interrupted him. “Xiao Jin, you know that my medical skills aren’t bad, so I want to hear what those Imperial Physicians have to say.”

Xiao Jin’s breathing became softer. “What the physician said was, if the fetus in your body continues to grow, it would affect your body and might even take your life.”

“So you want me to abort the child as a way to cure myself.”

Xiao Jin nodded.

There’s no need to go to that extent.”

However, Xiao Jin felt that Su Ying was saying this because she couldn’t bear to part with her child.

“Yingying, it’s enough for us to have Ling and Ji. If you really want to have another child, it won’t be too late for us to try again after you recover from your illness.”

However, Su Ying shook her head. “I know what to do.” After the checkup, she discovered a tumor in her stomach. The tumor was attached to her stomach wall.

It was impossible to say that the tumor carried no risk. As the fetus grew bigger, the expansion of the womb would press against the tumor. If the pressure was too much, it could cause the tumor to rupture and then she would be in trouble.

However, judging from the current growth of the fetus, if the weight of the fetus was controlled to match the growth rate of the tumor, it would not be a big problem. The tumor could be removed directly by surgery after the child was born.

“Yingying!”

Xiao Jin didn’t want Su Ying to take any risks at all.

“Will you listen to me just this once?”

“Xiao Jin, you know that I rarely do things that I have no confidence in. I will also never joke around with my life. The Imperial Physicians don’t dare to take risks because they will be in trouble if something happens to me. That’s why they made the situation sound more serious. However, I know my body. You have to trust me. I’m definitely not being willful or stubborn. I only made this decision after careful consideration and comprehensive evaluation!”

Xiao Jin pursed his lips tightly. It was clear that he disagreed with Su Ying’s decision.

“Su Ying, I’ve always respected your decision in whatever you wanted to do in the past, but this time, even if you say that the risk isn’t as great as I thought it would be, I still hope that everything will revolve around you as the top priority. Just this once, just this once, will you listen to me?”

Su Ying let out a soft sigh. She wanted to answer him firmly that she would not listen to him, but the worry and grief in Xiao Jin’s eyes made her swallow the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

She wrapped her arms around his waist and pressed her face against his stomach. Then she said softly, “I want to listen to you, but did the Imperial Physician tell you? Even if I abort the child, I still have to face risks.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Ying clearly felt Xiao Jin’s body stiffen.

The child is already more than four months old, and my belly is already showing. Putting aside the fact that you want to kill him personally, how can this fetus come out of my body so easily? If my body becomes too weak during the process of abortion, do you think I will be fine?

If you think that I’m lying to you, you can go ask those Imperial Physicians whether there’s no risk in getting me to abort the child. If they dare to say that there’s no risk, then I’ll listen to you.”

“Really?”

“Mm-hmm. Why would I lie to you about such a major thing?”

When he saw that Su Ymg wasn’t completely unrelenting, Xiao Jin heaved a

sigh of relief. “Alright. I’ll ask the Imperial Physicians in detail.”

The next morning, after discussing the important matters of the court with the ministers, Xiao Jin summoned all the highly respected Imperial Physicians of the Imperial Academy of Medicine to the Imperial study.

Xiao Jin told the Imperial Physicians what Su Ying told him last night.

“All of you tell me. Is it safer to keep the child or abort it?”

The Imperial Physicians exchanged looks with one another. In the end, it was the dean who stepped forward and said, “Your Majesty, both ways are risky to be honest. The risk of keeping the child is that we don’t know if the root of the disease will act up before Her Imperial Highness gives birth. But if the child is aborted, there is a risk of bleeding.”

These words made Xiao Jin’s heart sink completely.

“Is there no way to get the best of both worlds?”

The Imperial Physicians’ white beards had become all knotted in conflicting emotions, but they did not dare to say anything definite.

“If we can confirm that the tumor in Her Imperial Highness’s body is not fatal, the child can be kept.”

“How to confirm?”

This still requires us to examine the Empress further.”

Every day after that, a group of Imperial Physicians would come to Su Ying to examine her. With a row of Imperial Physicians standing in front of her, she instantly felt that her Conjugal Phoenix Palace had become congested. ’

It was as if medical specialists were examining her every day. Even if she was not sick, these old fellows would end up discovering something wrong with her.

After a period of examination, the Imperial Physicians made a decision by voting. They felt that the child could be kept.

Of course, the main reason was also that they couldn’t bear the consequences if

Su Ying encountered some mishap during the abortion.

Nonetheless, in order to ensure that Su Ying could safely hold on until she gave birth, Xiao Jin instructed two female doctors to stay in the Conjugal Phoenix Palace to guard against any unexpected events.

Su Ymg even chose the female doctors herself. She did this so that they could perform the tumor removal surgery on her later, and if necessary, they could also perform a C-section delivery.

The two women had been practicing medicine for a long time. It would not be difficult for them to learn two surgical procedures in a few months..
