Outside the delivery room of Kunning Palace, Zhao Zhen sat outside the door with a depressed look on his face. Empress Dowager Li and Miao Yuan were also holding his hands left and right, but neither spoke, but wiped tears silently. In the delivery room separated by a wall, Queen Zhang's painful moans came. She had worked very hard, but the child could not be born no matter what. For this reason, the midwife and the imperial doctor also tried their best, but there was still no effect.

"This is my first child. Is God so cruel that he not only refuses to give me a child, but even my queen wants to take it away?" Zhao Zhen also said in tears as he heard his wife's painful moan in the delivery room.

Since he learned about Empress Zhang just now, he immediately ran here from the front hall and even wanted to break into the delivery room, but was stopped by Empress Dowager Li and Miao Yuan. First, Zhao Zhen was useless to go in, and second, the imperial doctor was also nervously rescued, and his entry would only distract the imperial doctor.

But at this moment, Zhao Zhen suddenly saw Li Zhang standing there without saying a word. This made him immediately feel like he had grabbed a life-saving straw. He immediately jumped up and grabbed Li Zhang's arm and begged: "Cousin, you have learned so many things in the divine bird and are proficient in medical skills. You will definitely have a way to save the queen, right?"

As a playmate who grew up with her childhood, no one in the world knows Li Zhang better than Zhao Zhen. If he was rational in normal times, he would definitely know that although Li Zhang knew medical skills, Li Zhang's medical skills were very different from traditional medical skills. Some of them could be effective, but some were just talked about on paper and could not be achieved because of the lack of medicine. Therefore, he would not ask Li Zhang such questions at all. However, now Queen Zhang's life and death are on the front line. He has lost his mind and regarded Li Zhang as a life-saving straw.

"Brother, don't make things difficult for your cousin. Now the imperial doctor has begun to think of a solution. Maybe the sister-in-law will be able to give birth to the child soon!" Miao Yuan also grabbed Zhao Zhen and said in tears. She knew Li Zhang's medical skills like Zhao Zhen, but she did not lose her mind, so she did not believe that Li Zhang would have a solution in this kind of thing.

But what Miaoyuan didn't expect was that Li Zhang was silent for a moment and finally said, "I have a way, but..."

"Cousin, you really have a way, tell me quickly!" Before Li Zhang finished speaking, Zhao Zhen shouted with ecstasy expression, and his whole body trembled constantly because of excitement. He had only had a little extravagant hope, but he didn't expect Li Zhang to really have a way.

"Your Majesty, listen to me!" Li Zhang tried his best to calm Zhao Zhen down, and then said with a sad face, "I have a way to take out the child. If the child is fine, I should be able to survive, but the queen..."

"What will happen to her?" Zhao Zhen asked anxiously again when he heard this. He had a good relationship with Queen Zhang. Although choosing Queen Zhang was just a compromise plan, Zhao Zhen liked Queen Zhang more and more as he got along later. As for the Wang family, who was originally Zhao Zhen's favorite, although he was also named the Imperial Concubine, he was not as favored as Queen Zhang in comparison.

"Using current conditions, there is no chance of survival!" Li Zhang sighed and closed his eyes. At this time, he couldn't bear to look directly into Zhao Zhen's eyes.

Sure enough, as soon as Li Zhang said something, Zhao Zhen felt like he was struck by lightning, and his eyes were full of despair. Although he hoped that he would have a child, he also hoped that Empress Zhang would be safe. Even when Empress Zhang was pregnant, he had fantasized about the joy and happiness of empress Zhang holding the child countless times, just like Li Zhang's family, but now this fantasy has been shattered, and even Li Zhang could only protect the child.

Li Zhang knew that he had a problem with Zhao Zhen, but he had asked the imperial doctor just now and learned that the fetus in Queen Zhang's abdomen could not be born at all, and Queen Zhang's strength had been almost exhausted, and the whole person was in great pain. If it was delayed, it would be very likely that there would be a risk of heavy bleeding. By then, not only would the adults not be able to save it, but the child would definitely not survive.

So the only way Li Zhang could think of now was to take the risk of giving Queen Zhang a caesarean section. As long as the child in her belly was fine, the chance of survival was still very high. However, with the current sanitary conditions and the hot and humid weather, the wounds left by the caesarean section would be almost 100%. Without anti-inflammatory drugs from later generations, Queen Zhang would almost never survive.

"Cousin...Cousin, is there any other way?" After a while, Zhao Zhen asked Li Zhang again in an extremely dry voice. That begging tone made people cry.

"I'm sorry, I..." Li Zhang also opened his eyes and said weakly. He was a half-baked doctor. He had never delivered a child before. He just knew the process of caesarean section, so he asked him to take out the fetus and keep the mother's personality. Moreover, it was too difficult for him to lack this kind of drug.

"Your Majesty, I believe Zhang'er has done his best. You...you must make a decision early!" At this time, Empress Dowager Li held Zhao Zhen with tears in her eyes and whispered. Although Li Zhang's words were cruel, if he only relied on the imperial doctor, the mother and son would probably not be able to save the child, and Li Zhang at least had a great confidence in protecting the child.

When Zhao Zhen heard his mother's words, he also looked painful. If Li Zhang's method is followed, he would have to give up Queen Zhang's life. Although reason told him that this was the right decision, he could not make such a decision in terms of emotion.

"I...I can't do it!" Zhao Zhen finally covered his face with his hands and cried bitterly. This was the first time he had been so fragile since he became an adult. Empress Dowager Li also cried bitterly and hugged his son in his arms. The mother and son hugged each other and cried bitterly. Miaoyuan was also sobbing constantly. The so-called Tian family is actually no different from ordinary families. They can laugh and suffer.

Empress Dowager Li hugged Zhao Zhen and cried for a while, then stood up, then came to Li Zhang with a firm look and whispered: "Zhang'er, if you can really save the fetus in the queen's belly, just go and prepare. I'll go into the delivery room to see the queen!"

"Yes!" Li Zhang nodded when he heard this, and then watched Empress Dowager Li enter the delivery room. After he hesitating for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and turned away. Then he ordered someone to go back to his home to get what he needed. He had a regular medicine box at home, which contained surgical instruments found on the plane, which had never been used in recent years.

Just after Empress Dowager Li entered the delivery room, she walked out again, and then came to Zhao Zhen and whispered: "Your Majesty, the Queen... the Queen wants to see you!"
