The imperial doctor said that Ms. Cui suddenly fell into coma due to fatigue and worry.
Cui's face was red and with tears in her eyes, she looked at King Hailing's face that was so angry that it was deformed...
"She has already passed out from exhaustion before even bothering her..." The emperor said calmly, "Hurry back to your mansion and recuperate. I don't want to be known as abusing my daughter-in-law."
No matter what, it is impossible for Cui to stay.
Like a defeated rooster, King Hailing blushed and left the palace with his two concubines in shame and anger.
When Wen Jin stepped forward to pour water and medicine for the emperor, he saw the thousand-tael silver note pressed under the paperweight.
Her eyelids twitched, wasn't this the one the eunuch gave her?
The eunuch did as she said and reported the truth.
"You did well." The emperor glanced at Wen Jin.
Wen Jin poured water and offered medicine with an expression on his face as usual.
"Using the irreconcilable conflict between them, Cui herself wanted to return home..." The emperor smiled, "Jin'er, you are smarter than I thought."
Wen Jin's heart tightened...it turned out that the emperor knew about it.
"If Mrs. Cui and Mrs. Li didn't make so many small moves, I would rather have someone to accompany me.
"If a tree is as beautiful as the forest wind, it will be destroyed. If you stay with your father to wait for his illness, it will be too easy for others to envy you." Wen Jin said.
The emperor snorted softly, "Are you afraid of others' jealousy? I'm afraid you're annoyed with me?"
Wen Jin knelt down to plead guilty, "Father... I and my wife miss the two kittens at home, the maids and maids we are used to, and the wintersweet trees in front of the door."
The emperor was slightly startled, pointed at her and laughed, "I have talked about it all, but I didn't mention Chen'er! Why, my son is not as good as the two kittens you raised?"
Wen Jin lowered his head and said, "The cat was a gift from the prince."
The emperor was stunned for another moment, a smile gradually spread into his eyes, and he sighed softly.
"No wonder Chen'er holds you in the palm of his hand now, Wen Jin, you are an interesting person..."
The emperor took the medicine and began to read in high spirits.
After reading for a while and getting tired, he asked Yu'er to read to him.
It would be a beauty if the sun could remain so peaceful.
Until dusk.
Xiao Yuchen suddenly brought a piece of "good news".
When he entered the palace, he was a little excited.
His eyes were blood red with excitement, and his whole body still had the chilling air of having just experienced a killing.
"Father, the deposed prince has been captured. As you ordered, he was quietly taken to prison."
Xiao Yuchen cupped his hands and said, "He said he wanted to see my father again."
The emperor's face darkened and he snorted heavily, "If he doesn't see me, I also want to see him!"
The emperor stood up suddenly. He took two steps and suddenly stared at Wen Jin.
Wen Jin felt inexplicably...
"Princess Huai, you are going too," the emperor said.
At first, Wen Jin didn't understand why the emperor took her with him when he met the prince.
But soon, she realized... The emperor was afraid that he would be angered to death, so he brought the miracle doctor with him to save his life in a crisis, right?
Prisons are all spooky.
Even in the cell where the prince was held alone, the environment was not much better.
The prince was dressed in cloth, which looked particularly awkward on his body, which was used to wearing rich clothes.
He sat there with his knees bent and his head buried.
The jailer knocked on the iron bars, and the "bang bang" sound made people panic.
The prince suddenly raised his head. He was stunned for a moment, then jumped up, walked a few steps quickly, and knelt on the ground.
"Father... I am unjustly accused! I am at fault, but I will never dare to harm you or force the palace to rebel!
"This is all a misunderstanding! It's him...it's Xiao Yuchen! It's him who caused the misunderstanding between our father and son!"
The prince cried bitterly, pointed at Xiao Yuchen, and complained aggrievedly.
The emperor looked at the prince coldly, "It's all a misunderstanding? Mr. Chu, it's a misunderstanding, it's a misunderstanding that you surrounded Prince Huai's palace, and it's also a misunderstanding that you used the poisoned hidden weapon?"
"What kind of hidden weapon? What is Mr. Chu? I don't know! Father, these are Xiao Yuchen's tricks to drive a wedge between our father and son!"
"Shut up!" The emperor covered his heart, "I have trained you with all my heart! I have made you my heir since you were born! Haven't I done enough for you?"
"My father is very kind to me...so I can't lie to you. I am wronged!"
"That's all..." the emperor sighed, "Today is the last time you and I will see each other..."
"Father! No! You also know that my son is the crown prince! There is really no need to take risks!
"But Xiao Yuchen is different! As long as his son is around! He has no chance! You pet him and indulge him, but he becomes rebellious!
"All of this is Xiao Yuchen's old suspicion array! It was arranged by him!"
The prince pointed at Xiao Yuchen and shouted hoarsely.
Xiao Yuchen frowned slightly, his face expressionless.
The emperor's eyes turned to him.
He just bowed to the emperor and said in a calm voice, "Father, the emperor has learned that my son has never coveted anything that does not belong to him."
The emperor hummed.
“Father, please don’t be deceived by his wolfish ambition again!
"And! And her!"
The prince suddenly raised his hand and pointed at Wen Jin.
Wen Jin also frowned slightly.
"Isn't she going to run a girls' school? She also runs a medical clinic! There are free clinics every month and medicines are given away!
"She's a woman, why is she doing this?"
The emperor frowned, "Stop rambling!"
“If you want to win over the people, practicing medicine, donating medicines, and opening schools are the fastest ways!
"If he and his wife have no ulterior motives! Why would they spend so much money and effort to win over the people?"
Wen Jin said slowly, "Buddha sees everyone else as Buddha, devil sees everyone else as devil. Without him, it's just the projection of one's own heart.
"If doing a little good deed within your power becomes evidence of disobedience, what kind of world will this world become?"
The emperor nodded repeatedly when he heard this, "He is crazy...you don't have to be familiar with him!
"I remember vividly how you and your wife saved me in times of crisis."
The emperor sighed and shook his head at the prince, "You want to see me. I thought you realized your mistake and repented. I didn't expect..."
"Father..." The prince's eyes were red.
Seeing that the emperor was about to leave, he threw himself on the iron fence, "Father! Even when a man is about to die, he speaks well! You must be careful of Xiao Yuchen! He is the old fox among my brothers! His ambition is hidden deep inside!
"Father... my son is unfilial. If I can no longer fulfill my filial piety in this life, I hope that I will live in the next life..."
The prince sobbed and cried, which seemed to be somewhat sincere.
The emperor walked out of the prison, looked up at the sky, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Wen Jin found a trace of tears in the corner of his eyes... So, he looked up at the sky, didn't he want others to see him cry?
Wen Jin lowered his head.
"Now the prince has been captured..." Xiao Yuchen took a step forward and lowered his voice, but he could not hide his anxiety.
He glanced at Wen Jin with burning eyes, his deep longing for her was self-evident.
The emperor frowned...
He is obviously far away from the cell and the prince...
But the prince's words just now echoed in his ears again and again.
"Wolf ambition", "win over people's hearts", "hidden secretly"...
The emperor felt as if a stone was pressing on his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.
