Chapter 1491: One Corpse, Two Lives

ared at those standing guard and, without hesitation, swung his sword towards the soldier who had mocked the Northern Border Princess.That man had no ability to dodge at all and was brutally hacked do...An Xuetang's indifferent eyes merely stared at her calmly, without hastening to respond.

Seeing that she remained unresponsive, Fu'er thought she was unwilling to help. Gritting her teeth through the pain, he pleaded again, "Your Highness, don't you want Master Gu to wake up"

“......”

An Xuetang didn't even glance at her, instead staring intently at her abdomen. How small must the child be

Perhaps afraid of An Xuetang's cold gaze, she really would die twice, at this moment Fu'er suddenly sneered a few times:

"Hehe, I knew it, as expected... As expected, you are ambitious and ruthless. You don't want the Valley Master to wake up. An Xue Tang, you are so cruel...so heartless."

Ning'er, Shou'er: "!!"

This person's crazy, right

Before anyone could respond, Fu'er gritted her teeth and continued to complain indignantly, "An Xuetang, are you deliberately trying to keep the Valley Master unconscious As long as the Valley Master doesn't wake up, you can make everyone in Xuntang Valley listen only to you, right"

"Heh."

An Xuetang finally couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.

Ning'er and Shou'er frowned even more.

Shou'er thought, if it hadn't been for their Princess stopping her with a look, she would have slapped Fu'er long ago.

This person is utterly reckless.

An Xuetang's sharp eyes fell on Fu'er's face, "Your stratagem of using provocation is already something this concubine has seen through. Even now, you still have the audacity to play these schemes in front of this concubine. Instead of doing so, why not think carefully about how you plan to bring this child into the world."

As they spoke, An Xue Tang motioned to Ning'er beside her to lift the curtain that covered Fu'er's lower body.

Seeing Fu'er's state, everyone present couldn't help but gasp. Ning'er hurriedly lowered the curtain and said to An Xue Tang with a blank expression, "Your Highness, this place is too bloody, perhaps we should leave first"

"......" Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!

Fu'er didn't expect that Ning'er today was truly indifferent to her life and death. At this critical juncture, if she wasn't careful, she would really die.

Even though she could clearly see how dangerous it was just by glancing at it, she didn't even think about saving her or helping her after reading it. Instead, she wanted An Xue Tang to leave first.

She... how could she do this

Seeing Fu'er's eyes widen in disbelief, Shou'er let out a cold snort and didn't even give her a glance.

After all, they grew up with Fu'er. While outsiders might not understand Fu'er's thoughts, they, at least, could see through them to some extent.

Shour thought, in the past they indeed didn't know that this Fu'er was so arrogant and conceited. She had already betrayed Xuntang Valley and colluded with those people from Baiguang Palace, killing so many brothers in the valley. Where did she get the face to think that her life would still be cared for by Ning'er

If the situation weren't so dire, her queen wouldn't allow her to make a move at this crucial juncture. She had to make her see clearly just how pathetic she was now, not even as good as a rat crossing the street.

It's either an urgent matter, or An Xuetang knew at this moment what Fu Er was thinking. But she said nothing and did nothing.

He stared at Fu'er for a moment, thoughtfully, then turned to Ning'er and said, "Go call the midwife over here."

They had a midwife in their manor, naturally not summoned for Fu'er, but because she was getting closer and closer to her due date. Ning'er and the others were a bit worried that they couldn't help her deliver well on their own.

Since last month, the best midwives in the entire capital city have been invited back to the Prince’s Manor by Ning'er and the others, and they are being treated to delicious food and drink.

It's best to have the midwife take a look.

Ning'er nodded slightly, "Yes."

She actually wanted them to wait outside for the princesses. It was heavy with the smell of blood, and Fu'er had signs of significant bleeding; there was almost a pile of bloodied cloths at the foot of the bed.

These scenes are bound to cause discomfort in people's hearts.

But seeing how things are now, it seems the Queen wants to stay. She can only go along with her wishes.

An Xuetang narrowed her eyes slightly, she looked at Fu'er, seeing that she was covered in cold sweat and seemed to have little strength left.

"Ah!!!"

Fu'er was truly reaching her limit. Wave after wave of pain kept coming, striking her so intensely that her features contorted in agony. Veins bulged on her neck and face as she continued to wail and scream hoarsely.

The physician didn't know what else she could do. She looked up at the Northern Border Princess, noticing her impassive face with no indication of wanting to intervene.

She pursed her lips, a sigh escaping her as she continued to wipe the blood constantly flowing from Fu'er's lower body.

She had just asked the Princess whether she wanted to save the elder or the younger, but the Princess didn't respond. Now she didn't dare ask further.

But if this goes on, it really will be a fatal outcome for both of us.

At this moment, she was sweating profusely from nervousness, and her hands kept wiping frantically.

Fu'er felt her liver tear with pain, her stomach cramping as if being stabbed repeatedly.

She really couldn't hold on any longer, she looked at An Xue Tang with difficulty, "Your Highness, Your Highness save this servant, please save this servant."

“I… I haven’t lied. In this world, only my child in my womb is truly alive. Only if the Valley Master wakes up will there be hope.”

"Here we go again with that line," An Xue Tang snorted coldly, "Why do you think I would believe a word you say"

"I swear, truly...truly I haven't lied. The child lives, and only then can the master live."

"Then tell me, what is the reason for all this You've never explained how you intend to use this child to wake my brother. And now, after all this time, you still won't say"

"No...can't say, ah!!!"

Fu'er cried out in agony, her sobs heart-wrenching!

She is truly in pain. She always knew childbirth was a walk on the edge of death, but she never expected it to be this excruciating.

From a young age to the present, on my martial arts journey, I've accumulated numerous injuries and seen blood along the way.

When fighting with people, she was wounded by blind swords and blades, even just recently, she was maimed by Ninger and others, her hands and feet were broken, her tendons severed. But the pain from those wounds was nothing compared to the agony she felt now, a hundredfold worse.

She's really in so much pain.

She desperately needs to be free now.

"Your Highness, please...please save the child."

As for Fu'er's pleas, An Xue Tang remained completely indifferent from start to finish.

At this time, Ning'er also brought the midwife back.

The midwife wanted to bow as soon as she saw An Xue Tang, but An Xue Tang stopped her with a gesture. "No need for formalities," she said, "Come and take a look at this woman in labor. Can you find a way to help her give birth"

The midwife didn't know the details yet, so she quickly replied, "Yes," and immediately walked to the doctor's place, taking his position.

But when she saw Fu'er's lower body, especially the child's tiny feet, her face instantly paled. "This... this... This child of the princess, dangerous... dangerous!"e moment she learned the truth, how desperate, how utterly hopeless she was, it's impossible to know.It just so happened that An Xue Tang appeared at that very moment.The day she met An Xuetang, was a...
