Several eunuchs were bending down and holding lamps in front to lead the way. Chu Qianqian led the group of people in a hurry, with an obvious look of anxiety on her brows.
So far, no one knows what happened to Fu Lilian's body. Although he has a weak constitution and has been susceptible to colds since he was a child, he has never coughed up blood like he did today. Could it be caused by a small wind chill?
The more Chu Qianqian thought about it, the more confused she became. She didn't pay attention to her steps for a moment, and almost tripped over the pebbles on the road. Fortunately, she was supported by Chunliu beside her, so she didn't lose her dignity.
"Chunliu, this matter has not disturbed the Queen Mother, has it?" Chu Qianqian looked at her and asked, "Did Concubine Xue send someone there? And the Fourth Princess...she is the one who
The palace's biological sister, no matter how big a mistake she made, I, the sister, should not get angry with her, let alone leave her in the palace. Besides, she is a kind person. If she hadn't been in front of her at that time,
Hold on..."
Chunliu naturally knew that the "that time" she was talking about was the time when Mr. Chu Xiang suddenly passed away and everyone in the Chu Mansion suddenly lost their backbone and panicked. At that time, if the fourth princess had not dealt with various affairs calmly and calmly, the Chu Mansion would have been like this.
A plate of loose sand followed Mr. Chu Xiang away, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not be able to return to the palace. The Queen and Concubine Xue would also be in a different situation in the palace.
Seeing the Queen's sighs one after another, Chunliu hurriedly comforted her: "Don't worry, Queen, everything has been taken care of before the servants come out. The Fourth Princess has already sent a maid to inform her, and Queen Yun has also sent Chief Tong over temporarily.
, all the quick ones in Fengwei Palace went to Lingxuan Palace to help, the Emperor..."
Chunliu looked at her face carefully and whispered: "The emperor's servants also sent people over, and they must be on their way here."
Everyone in the palace knew that the emperor was not interested in His Highness the Crown Prince, and it was her own decision to send someone to inform the emperor. But for such a big matter, whether it was a visit to the crown prince as the king of a country, or a visit to his son as a father,
It's all understandable. However, Chu Qianqian obviously doesn't think so.
"When did you learn to kill first and then play?"
Listening to her questioning tone, Chunliu's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly lowered his head and admitted his mistake: "The Queen, please forgive me, I just..."
"Forget it, just go," Chu Qianqian sighed and said in a calm tone, "You shouldn't even be able to enter the palace gate."
This time Chu Qianqian guessed correctly, the little eunuch did not even step through the door.
Eunuch Cao's eyes were fixed on the little eunuch who was kowtowing vigorously. After the lesson learned last time, he no longer dared to take it lightly. However, this person was much more discerning than the little palace maid next to Concubine Yun.
.
"Our family remembers you, your name is 'Xiao Dezi', right?" Eunuch Cao looked at his red forehead and deliberately threatened, "Although you are sincere, the emperor's fate cannot be decided by us slaves.
, if you continue to waste your time and make the Emperor and Concubine Yin unhappy, our family will not speak for you then."
"Eunuch Cao..." Xiao Dezi knelt straight and looked at him doubtfully, "But the Queen asked the servant to come over, that is..."
He just wanted him to invite the emperor to see His Royal Highness, but Eunuch Cao didn't let him.
"You obviously saw the Za family just come in to report," Eunuch Cao smacked his lips and walked to him impatiently, pointing to the door behind him, "But Concubine Yin suddenly felt sick in her stomach, and now the emperor can't tell the difference either.
You know, our family is really in a dilemma..." He turned his eyes in a circle and whispered, "Your Majesty won't go anywhere tonight. Concubine Yin is carrying a dragon seed in her belly. With Xue
Concubine has learned from the past, the emperor will never let her make any mistakes this time!"
Xiao Dezi was just an almost transparent little servant in Fengwei Palace. Seeing Eunuch Cao in such a difficult situation, he thought that he had indeed seen Eunuch Cao enter and leave the house with his own eyes just now, even if he could not even see the emperor.
Even if you are not qualified, you can still do your best. Instead of spending time in this long wait, it is better to go back quickly and see if you can be of any help.
Thinking like this, he suddenly felt relieved.
"Xiao Dezi, thank you Eunuch Cao for your advice," Xiao Dezi stood up slowly, took out a money bag from his sleeve, slightly covered it with his body and stuffed it into Eunuch Cao's hand, and said with a flattering smile, "This is Xiao Dezi.
If you respect Eunuch Cao, you will have to rely on him more in the future."
Eunuch Cao weighed it calmly and nodded with satisfaction: "You are smart, don't worry, you will have blessed days ahead!"
In order not to alarm the Queen Mother, even the imperial doctor was quietly invited by Xu Ning. There were only a few lights left outside the East Palace as usual, and it looked the same. When Chu Qianqian walked into the inner room, she felt that the lights were brightly lit, as bright as day.
After withdrawing from the others, Chu Qianqian stood quietly at the door and watched the situation in front of her.
The room was so quiet that it was a little depressing. Doctor Huang was taking the pulse of Fu Lilian, who was sleeping, with his brows furrowed. It looked like the situation was not optimistic. But Xu Ning stood aside and stared intently, with a worried look on his face, and he didn't even notice that she was here.
, it was Xiao Lizi who discovered her first.
Seeing that Xiao Lizi wanted to speak out, Chu Qianqian quickly shook her head and made a silent gesture. The most important thing at the moment was Li Lian's condition, and these innocuous etiquette were not important at this time.
"Hey..." Dr. Zhang sighed heavily and retracted his hand, his gray eyebrows tightly knitted into a straight line.
Just as Xu Ning was about to speak, Chu Qianqian strode over and asked loudly: "Mr. Zhang, why is the prince doing this?"
The few people who didn't know anything about it were a little surprised when they saw the queen coming, but they quickly came to their senses and hurriedly started to salute.
"Let's all get up." Chu Qianqian glanced at them lightly, and walked quickly to the bed. Seeing that Fu Lilian's usually bright red lips were now pale, she felt as if she was overwhelmed with discomfort, "Mr. Zhang, just a mere
How could the wind and cold bring the prince here?!"
His Royal Highness's pulse is steady and strong, his eyes and tongue coating are normal, and he has no special symptoms throughout his body.
Unable to find any other symptoms, Dr. Zhang couldn't think of any other explanation for the moment, so he replied solemnly: "Back to the Queen, Your Highness is worried too much, and the previous cold has not healed, so the condition is
It got worse and hurt my lungs."
"Prince, does he drink medicine on time every day?" Chu Qianqian turned to look at Xu Ning.
"Yes," Xu Ning nodded seriously and said sternly: "I have always said that I would follow the instructions of Dr. Zhang and personally watch the servants boil the medicine every day and watch what His Highness drinks. I have not dared to do so for a day.
Lazy.”
Naturally, she would not doubt Xu Ning's sincerity towards Fu Lilian, nor would she doubt Xu Ning's character. However, Doctor Zhang had been in the palace for more than thirty years, and his medical skills were beyond doubt...
"Empress, Your Highness the Crown Prince is physically weak, and with the hard work today, your energy consumption will naturally be greater. Although the wind and cold are good, it is not easy to maintain your health," Dr. Zhang warned sincerely, "This time the wind and cold are coming fiercely. Your Highness, the Crown Prince, will wait until tomorrow."
Now that you are awake, Your Highness the Crown Princess should advise Her Royal Highness to pay more attention to rest."
Chu Qianqian looked at Fu Lilian lying on the bed, and every detail of this period of time kept appearing in front of her eyes, feeling both satisfied and distressed.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mrs. Zhang, Chunliu," she said calmly, "It's windy and snowy outside. Give Mrs. Zhang a carriage and some hand stoves to take her out of the palace."
Doctor Zhang was so flattered that he thanked her profusely and followed Chunliu out of the East Palace.
"Mother, it's late at night and I shouldn't disturb your rest," Xu Ning had been suppressing the uneasiness in her heart. Although she was relieved now, her voice was still trembling, "But I saw His Highness suddenly coughing up blood, and then
Then he fell into a coma, and there was no response no matter how he called. I was really scared, so I asked Binglan to call you..."
Only then did Chu Qianqian realize that Xu Ning's eyes were red and the tip of her nose was also red. In her eyes, Xu Ning had always been knowledgeable and courteous, and he was calm and graceful. Now that he was so rude, he must have been very frightened.
"Don't be afraid. When Lilian wakes up tomorrow, you have to tell him to pay more attention to his health and not stay up any longer to deal with government affairs." Chu Qianqian patted her hand with pity and whispered softly, "You
I am the same, I have to take good care of my body and give him a son and a daughter as soon as possible, so that the mother can feel at ease, do you understand?"
Xu Ning was suddenly mentioned about raising children, which was somewhat beyond Xu Ning's expectation. She nodded and agreed shyly.
"Okay, take good care of the prince. I will go back to Fengwei Palace first. In the next few days, you must pay attention to the prince's every move. If there is anything abnormal," Chu Qianqian said sternly, "
Be sure to send someone to inform me as soon as possible."
Rather than being the king of a country, Chu Qianqian hopes that her son can live in peace and live a long life. But they all know that once they embark on this road, there is no turning back.
After coming out of the East Palace, a cool breeze blew away, blowing away the warmth that Chu Qianqian was carrying in a few blows, causing her to unconsciously tighten the heater in her hands. At this time, in the dead of night, people were listening to the rustling wind, and stepped on
Staring at the white snow and the towering palace walls, I felt an indescribable feeling of desolation in my heart for the first time.
She married Fu Deyou when she was only fifteen years old. In the blink of an eye, after the New Year, she had stayed in the palace for ten years. When she was a child, she thought that she would be the most admired woman in the world in the future, and she was filled with love.
The idea entered the palace, but my heart was chilled in this familiar palace.
Since her father's death, Chu Qianqian has never returned to the Chu Mansion. The younger sister who deserves the most happiness has to be confined to a palace wall. The second sister who owes the most is not close to her even though she is happy. There are also
Her son... what she misses the most now is Fu Lilian. If anything happens to him, there will be nothing in this world worthy of her nostalgia.
"Empress..." Chunliu called worriedly, "The emperor had already fallen asleep when Xiao Dezi went, and he must not have heard... Don't think too much about it..."
