"Now the master of the palace is the King of Chu, and these imperial doctors are just following the wind. They don't know how to prescribe good medicines carefully. These are bitter, unpleasant and of little use!"
Xinrong muttered in a low voice. They could just talk about this in private and didn't dare to spread it outside. Even if they wanted to talk to Hongluo today, they could only do enough tricks.
"Princess...has there been any news from Concubine Wei? Have you and Hong Luo made everything clear?"
Mingwan leaned her whole body against Xinfu, she was confused and couldn't see clearly, and felt dizzy.
I can only hope that Wei Shu will be okay. I have met her several times over the years. I just hope that she can help me because all women have such a sad fate.
"Not yet," Xinfu said in despair, "Although Concubine Wei is said to be favored by His Majesty, no one knows how much he will be favored. What's more, she is His Royal Highness Prince An, so how can His Majesty stand on our side?"
"Even if Wei Shu Mingzhe doesn't protect me, I won't blame her. She and I have no friendship to begin with. She is lucky to be favored by the King of Chu. It's good to take good care of herself."
Mingwan smiled and shook her head. In fact, the current King of Chu was very good to the female relatives of the former Wei State, and at least he could continue to live in Hanyu Palace.
The food and clothing expenses are still in accordance with the treatment of the princess, but the people in the palace will add insult to injury. Her status as the princess is nothing at all, and even the imperial doctor is not willing to prescribe some good medicine.
"Princess, but the only one I know well in the palace now is her. If she doesn't even want to help, then wouldn't we..."
Xinrong's eyes were filled with tears and she didn't dare to say any more.
Not to mention that the princess is ill now, but that King An is so entangled with the princess that she doesn't know what to do. Is it possible that they can report it to King Chu?
It was a great kindness for King Chu to spare their lives and let them continue to live in Hanyu Palace. Why did he think he would reprimand his imperial brother for them?
"You don't have to be so pessimistic. I see that Hong Luo is very talkative. I should be able to tell Concubine Wei everything. I have to give it a try after all!"
Xinfu can only place her hope on this. After all, she is now His Majesty's favorite concubine, so she should be able to say a few words, right?
Even for the sake of being from the Wei Kingdom, I just hope that the empress can say a few words in front of His Majesty to make the princess's life easier.
"Ahem!"
Mingwan was just about to say something more, but suddenly she felt her throat felt itchy, and she couldn't stop coughing.
"Princess Princess!"
Xinfu quickly patted her back, but it was of no use and she coughed up some blood.
Xinrong quickly wiped the corners of Mingwan's mouth with a handkerchief. In fact, she had been crying and bleeding for a while, but the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor was of no use at all.
That's why He Xinfu took the risk and bumped into Hong Luo on purpose, taking the opportunity to whisper these words in her ear while helping her up.
"Don't worry about me, maybe death will be a relief."
Mingwan waved her hands and her voice was hoarse. She had been coughing every day for a while and her voice had become hoarse.
She herself couldn't understand why she had become like this. What on earth did Wang An see in her? Why should he come here to pester her every day?
What's more, the former Wei Kingdom has already changed its owner. Her living here has really become a redundant existence. The palace will not sincerely regard her as the princess. Calling her the princess is just to give herself face. That’s all.
"Who said you were going to die?"
Taoyao pushed open the door and walked in, followed by the imperial doctor and Hongluo still carrying a food box.
"Hurry and show the princess what the disease is, and be sure to prescribe the best medicine after you return!"
The imperial doctor quickly nodded and went over to check Mingwan's pulse, not daring to fool him. After remembering it clearly, he quickly went back to write the prescription.
The moment Mingwan appeared in Taoyao, she felt comfortable all over. She only smelled a fresh fragrance and her throat no longer hurt.
"I've met my empress."
Xin Fu and Xin Rong quickly looked at each other and smiled, knowing that this step was correct and the princess would definitely come to save them!
"Mingwan, we have met several times in the palace before. At that time, you stayed silent in Hanyu Palace and did not like to come out. The same was true for me. Later, I once lived in the princess's mansion, and we never met again. Saw it."
Taoyao sat directly beside the bed, while Hongluo put the food box on the table and took out the medicinal food inside. Xinrong quickly took it and fed Mingwan one bite at a time.
"So the princess still remembers it," Mingwan swallowed and felt much more comfortable. "We are the only ones in the room at the moment. I still just want to call you princess."
"It's not a serious illness for you. It's just that the imperial doctor is unwilling to prescribe good medicine. It's getting worse over time. I'll see it myself. Now they don't dare to mess around anymore. They'll prescribe some good medicine. You'll be cured in half a month at most." It can get better!”
Tao Yao comforted them softly. In fact, the fates of Ming Wan and Wei Shu were quite similar, so she could help if she was willing.
"Thank you, Princess, for making the decision! Those people are just adding insult to injury and neglecting the Princess every time. The Princess has to step in to help!"
Xinfu said angrily, although it was not much better in the past, at least food and clothing were enough. But now it has really changed. Even if the King of Chu personally said that all the treatment will not change, those people will only see The wind steers the ship.
But how could he dare to bother King Chu about this matter? After all, it was pretty good to be able to save one life.
"Don't worry, His Majesty won't care about this. The most important thing is to take good care of your body."
Taoyao patted Mingwan on the shoulder and comforted her softly.
"But even if I take good care of myself, it won't be of much use..."
Mingwan frowned with worry on her face. She felt that her illness was caused by excessive fear and worry in her heart, which made her unable to eat or sleep well every day.
How could she not have the slightest feeling since the change in the Wei Kingdom? She didn't know who the biggest master in the palace was now, but what could she, a weak woman, do?
"You mean King An?" Tao Yao raised an eyebrow, "I have heard that King An is mediocre in ability and loves to make trouble. Could it be that you are the reason for trouble?"
"That's what the princess said!" Xinfu nodded quickly, "I don't know why King An insisted on pestering the princess. The princess made concessions in every possible way but still had no way to retreat. In addition, during this period of time, she was seriously ill. , fortunately there is a princess to help!"
After Mingwan finished drinking the medicinal meal, she felt that her whole body felt much warmer, and her throat was not so painful anymore, but she had no strength and could only lean on Xinfu.
"Princess, actually when I heard that you have become His Majesty's favorite concubine, my first reaction was that I'm so glad you survived, and I'm also glad that I survived too."
Mingwan was still very weak and said a few words, then took a long breath. Looking at Taoyao who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, she felt a little lucky. In fact, in this world, it is really not easy for a woman to save her own life.
"It doesn't matter, you don't have to be afraid that I will help you. Your Majesty and Prince An are not brothers from the same mother, and they will not always protect him. There will always be a way to solve this scourge in the future!"
Tao Yao said softly, and couldn't help but feel a little pity when she saw Ming Wan's appearance.
"The imperial doctor will prescribe the best medicine for you, and will also send you the best food. Your food and clothing expenses will be as per your original expenses. Don't worry, with me watching, no one will dare to neglect you again!"
Taoyao sighed slightly, hoping that Mingwan could survive well.
"Thank you."
Mingwan said gratefully, knowing that she could get help from Tao Yao was an unexpected surprise. If the other party could help her, that would be the greatest good thing.
"Princess, it is easy for the princess to become ill, but it seems that Prince An's matter is not that simple. What does the princess plan to do?"
Hong Luo muttered softly on the way back. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that if the matter really came to His Majesty, His Majesty would naturally turn to Prince An.
The princess of Wei State is no longer a princess long ago
"Let's go back first."
Tao Yao shook her head, not wanting to say anything on the road. It would not be a good thing if someone with a heart listened to it.
Seeing that the candlelight in the room was very bright, he guessed that Chu Xiao should be inside, so he asked Hongluo to go down to rest and went in alone.
Chu Xiao had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Tao Yao coming back, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Where did this go?"
Chu Xiao stood up and pulled Tao Yao over, picked her up and put her on his lap. Seeing the worried look on her face, Chu Xiao narrowed her eyes slightly.
"I went to Hanyu Palace just now to see Princess Mingwan. She was having a very bad life."
Tao Yao told the truth. She didn't believe that Chu Xiao really didn't know where he had gone. He was probably just waiting for her to tell him.
"Yeah?"
Chu Xiao didn't care that much. It was a great kindness for him to spare the lives of Wei's female family members. Naturally, the prince wanted to kill them all.
"Yeah, it's really bad. She looks a lot thinner and she's still sick. The imperial doctor doesn't want to take good care of her. The medicines she prescribes are all random. I saw how pitiful she was and called the imperial doctor in person. have a look."
Taoyao sighed as she spoke, her brows furrowed tightly, and she seemed to be really concerned about this matter.
"Are you familiar with her?"
Chu Xiao held Tao Yao tightly in his arms. He basically killed all the Wei royal family and released all the female relatives in the harem.
King Wei didn't have many princesses. He killed the two ungrateful ones, Wei Yao and Wei Yan, and took the rest back if they could be taken back by their own mother clan.
I heard that Princess Mingwan's parents had died of illness long ago, so she could only stay in the palace.
"That's not bad. She is raised by her father in the palace and we can see her a few times. It's hard to say that we have a good relationship, but we still have some friendship."
Taoyao tilted her head and thought carefully before answering truthfully.
Mingwan's biggest concern now is King An, and Zuo Zuo will also deal with King An in the future, so it's not a big deal.
"If you like her, Guhui will send people to pay more attention to prevent her from suffering."
Chu Xiao didn't take it seriously, it was just a woman in the palace, it wasn't a big deal.
"These are nothing, I just encountered something more serious."
Taoyao lowered her head and hesitated.
"What is it?"
"I heard from people serving Mingwan that His Royal Highness Prince An coveted her and would often go to Hanyu Palace to trouble her. Mingwan did not dare to bring the matter to His Majesty, so she could only endure it. Recently, she has been She was seriously ill, so people around her came to tell me and wanted me to help her."
Taoyao sighed heavily again, feeling that the fate of a woman in this world was really full of twists and turns, and it seemed that she could never settle down.
The difficulty is really too difficult.
