"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees..."
The sound of the Sixth Prince crying endlessly came from the Imperial Concubine's bedroom. Nanny Lu was advising from the side: "My Lady, the Sixth Prince has a fever. You can't cover him. You have to open the windows for ventilation."
Nanny Lu was about to open the window as she spoke, but she was stopped by the magpie, who shouted loudly: "Fever, what kind of fever? The imperial doctor said it was wind-cold, and the wind can't blow. Are you more powerful than the imperial doctor?"
"Pooh!"
Nanny Lu spit out the melon seed shells in her mouth, deliberately stood in front of the window, and looked out from the corner of her eye: "What does the imperial doctor know? How many children has he nursed? I have raised seven daughters, who can understand more than me?" This is heat cold caused by wearing too much clothing.”
"You... you... you are so angry with me that you asked the palace maid to make medicine. What kind of medicine did you make? Can you be responsible for the sixth prince's problem when he takes it?"
"If I'm responsible, I'm responsible. I'm not afraid."
After listening to this, an ordinary-looking maid outside the door took out a bowl of medicine from the kitchen stove. While Nanny Lu was still arguing with the magpie, she didn't pay attention and opened the lid of the medicine jar and took it out of her sleeve. A packet of medicine is about to be added to the still bubbling jar.
"Get her!"
Suddenly, a group of people rushed out of the side hall of Hexi Palace, and the leader turned out to be the emperor in dragon robes.
The palace maid screamed in surprise, and all the white powder in her hand spilled on the stove. Before she could say a word, she was escorted by the guards to the emperor.
Nanny Lu hugged the perfectly fine Sixth Prince and followed Jiang Xinyue, shaking a small rattle: "Sixth Prince, look! There is an idiot over there. The Fourth Prince wants to grab a rattle from you and make you cry. I really thought you were sick!"
With her here, the Sixth Prince had no chance of getting sick, and she had raised seven daughters, which was a rare thing in a remote place.
If not for this, she wouldn't be able to catch Grandma Li's eyes.
The fourth prince immediately explained: "My mother asked me to snatch it."
She said that it would be true to do a full set of dramas. How can a sick child not cry?
Emperor Xuanwu sneered: "What did Concubine De promise you? Do you, a cheap servant like you, dare to drug my sixth prince?"
The palace maid's whole body trembled, her lips trembled, and her tears were already overflowing: "No... no, slave... I was arranged by Concubine De in Hexi Palace... carefully... carefully, before the imperial concubine moved in, The slave was...just arranged here. The slave doesn't know anything else. The slave just...just follows orders."
A good one who follows orders.
At first I just thought that the Queen Mother's minions were all over the harem, but I didn't expect that Concubine De would be no less generous.
Yue'er was not very favored before she moved to the palace, but Concubine De actually started planning her affairs so long ago. The depth of her plans is unbelievable.
Dr. Yan rubbed the medicinal powder on his fingers, put it under the tip of his nose and smelled it. Then he called several accompanying doctors to come forward: "Look, is this a laxative?"
After taking turns to confirm, Imperial Physician Yan stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine, this is a laxative."
If the Sixth Prince was really infected with the cold, it would be normal for him to have diarrhea.
But if Nanny Lu was really bribed by Concubine De to give the Sixth Prince, who was suffering from cold, cold medicine, the properties of the medicine would conflict with the symptoms, which would aggravate the condition and possibly lead to a high fever that would not subside.
At this time, you can't stand any other stimulation, and you need the imperial doctor to observe you at any time and prescribe the right medicine.
This medicine, which was added with laxatives and was inconsistent with the Sixth Prince's condition, would have disastrous consequences once it was fed to the Sixth Prince and drank.
Those with weaker spleens and stomachs are likely to die directly.
The sixth prince is only more than five months old!
How can it withstand such a torment?
"Go to Yanqing Palace!"
Emperor Xuanwu was holding a fire in his heart. He had given Concubine De a chance over and over again before the lotus pond piranha incident, but now she still refused to repent and set her sights on the Sixth Prince.
She herself has a child, so how could she have such vicious thoughts to deal with an infant child?
"Empress, you said..."
In Yanqing Palace, Lu Wu stared at the door anxiously, swallowing a mouthful of saliva unconsciously in his throat.
Before she could say anything, she saw Concubine De twisting her handkerchief and looking uneasy: "Go and see if the third prince is back? Let him come to me."
"Mother, are you afraid..."
They were afraid that someone would see through their plan, and they were afraid of being stabbed in front of the emperor. With the third prince here, they also had a life-saving talisman.
Concubine De clenched her fingers even tighter: "I have been in the harem for more than ten years and have never met an opponent. Only this Jiang Xinyue has caused me to be defeated repeatedly. I always do not believe in evil, but I dare not make a fatal move. If it were the concubines that I had dealt with before, I would have just sent them away with a dose of poison, but she is Jiang Xinyue, and I still have to give myself a chance to survive, so I only dare to administer laxatives."
Even the first prince was drugged to death by her, and the second prince even got smallpox after wearing clothes she brought in from outside the palace that were contaminated with smallpox, and was killed by her father while he was recuperating outside the palace.
She joined forces with her father and was supposed to be invincible.
When I met the Jiang family, I had to be a little more cautious.
"Mother concubine..."
At the entrance of the main hall, the third prince lowered his head and called Concubine De. Such a lackluster appearance only made Concubine De's anger rise: "Xuan'er, come here."
The third prince hesitated for a while, then stepped into the hall: "Concubine, do you have anything to do with the child?"
Is it my own illusion?
Concubine De always felt that the third prince had become much colder to her after returning from the palace, and sometimes even showed extreme indifference to her care.
She looked at the third prince with a scrutinizing gaze: "My mother-in-law asked you, did Empress Zhen say anything to you when you were in the palace?"
The third prince shook his head: "No."
"Is it not, or are you protecting her and unwilling to say anything?"
The third prince fell silent, looking at her with a pair of clean and clear eyes, as if he was judging something.
"Snapped!"
Concubine De slapped the third prince on the face: "Is she your mother-in-law or am I your mother-in-law? Ever since she entered the palace, you children have been drunk, and you have forgotten your own. Who is the biological mother, right? Who am I rushing into battle for? Let me ask you, who am I for? In the end, I am the bad person, but she is the good person, right? If you want to be her son, will others want you? They themselves have it Son, you still have to rank behind the Fourth Prince!"
The third prince's face was hit to the side, and his eyes turned red. However, he never threw himself into Concubine De's arms and cried when he was wronged like before.
He just raised his slightly strong little face and glared at Concubine De with sinister eyes: "Stop using me as an excuse. You don't even know what I really want?"
He just... wanted a mother, that's all.
