Chapter 1030: Chapter 830 About to Give Birth (2)

She clutched her stomach, constantly comforting herself in her mind: "Child, don’t be afraid, mother is here, and mother will definitely do her utmost to protect you."

A chef inside saw Nan Feng clutching her stomach as she went out, and he quickly came over to ask, "Nan Feng, what’s wrong with you?"

A maid beside him said, "Looking at her condition, she’s definitely about to give birth. Should I help her while you stay here and watch?"

"But didn’t the second prince specifically instruct us not to help her?"

"Are you stupid? The second prince is just quarrelling with her. How can we not help at a time like this?" the maid said.

Nan Feng’s stomach pain was not constant; these were called contractions, hurting intermittently. Despite this, she looked at the maid with gratitude, "Thank you, kindness is always rewarded."

"Don’t mention it; you’re having a tough time too. I will report this to the second prince later and ask him to find a midwife for you," the maid said.

But just halfway there, Nan Feng saw Tuoba Lie. Tuoba Lie saw Nan Feng being supported by a maid and walked over with a grim face. He said to the maid, "What’s going on? Didn’t I say not to bother with her?"

The maid was somewhat flustered: "But she, she looks like she’s about to give birth."

"About to give birth?" Tuoba Lie looked at Nan Feng, then at her prominently swollen stomach, and thought subconsciously: Is that bastard being born?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, so he coldly said to the maid, "Let her go."

"Second prince, this..."

Nan Feng clutched her stomach, feeling the amniotic fluid start to flow out, and the pain in her abdomen seemed to intensify. Yet she didn’t want to trouble the maid and pushed her away, "I’ll do it myself."

The maid had no choice but to let go of Nan Feng. Nan Feng arched her back and walked with great difficulty, yet she was more determined than ever. She even felt a little dizzy, her vision blurring. Sweat beads the size of peas formed on her forehead. Even so, she only focused on one direction—that was her room, where she intended to give birth and have her child.

Tuoba Lie watched the current state of Nan Feng, and in that moment, he clenched his fists even harder.

That was what she cared about, what she would protect even at the cost of her life.

Yet that child was a thorn in his side, an issue he couldn’t let go of. Suddenly, he had an idea: if he did not intervene, what would ultimately happen to her, and could the child be born?

He watched as Nan Feng entered her room. Initially, there was a noise of something being knocked over inside—she might have bumped into something or fallen. Despite this, he still did not want to go in and see her.

The room slowly quieted down for a while; after a while, it seemed he heard a sound of pained gasps from inside. She might be in pain.

He couldn’t help thinking: If all women are naturally capable of childbirth, then why the need for midwives? Why the need for obstetricians? Can a woman in labor see below and know when to push and when not to? If she gives birth so recklessly, could she die?

After a fierce internal struggle, he finally stopped a passing guard. "Go, find the best midwife from the grasslands."

The guard was a man, having no idea where the best midwife could be found. He had to ask around for the best midwife’s location and eventually located one quite far away. The midwife walked very slowly, so the guard had to follow her at a slow pace. Later, worried about the delay, he ended up carrying her on his back.
