"But my child..."
After King Yi's words, the chatter among the courtiers gradually stopped, and finally thousands of words turned into a sigh.
At this point, I can only trust the emperor.
After leaving the court, the ministers went out of the palace in twos and threes.
At the gate of the palace, they saw the eldest princess who had just got into the carriage wrapped in a big cloak.
"Hey, isn't that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess?"
"I heard that the consort didn't come out after entering the palace with her yesterday. By the way, where is the consort?"
"I didn't see him in court just now."
While the other ministers were discussing, one of the ministers who had always been silent suddenly said: "Do you think... the eldest princess's body looks much better?"
Everyone looked quickly and saw that the eldest princess had a rosy face and deep and bright eyes. Although her body was still thin, her energy and energy seemed to be a different person.
"When I saw Her Royal Highness the Princess yesterday, she still looked like..." She was about to die at any moment.
Of course, he didn't dare to say the second half, but everyone understood it tacitly.
"When I saw the eldest princess outside the city a few days ago, she was so weak that she had to be helped to walk."
"It's like he changed into a different person overnight."
"It's not like he's changed. It's like he's come back to life."
A minister suddenly thought, "Did His Majesty ask someone to treat the eldest princess when he entered the palace yesterday?"
"But the eldest princess has been ill for more than ten years. If someone could cure her instantly, it would be a miracle doctor!"
He was speaking unintentionally and listening intently. Several ministers who had trouble at home looked at each other and made a guess in their minds.
"If there really is such a powerful miracle doctor, can our child be saved?"
"Quickly find out who entered the palace yesterday!"
A minister who happened to be in the palace yesterday spoke.
"After I went to court, I was left in the royal study room to discuss the matter of collecting grain for the treasury. I saw the prince-in-law coming with the princess, saying that he wanted to sue the minister for raising wild animals in the street and hurting people. Later, the minister brought his daughter into the palace. , By the way, when I left the palace, I saw King Yi riding towards here."
"Xiheng, Xiheng——" A minister who had a good relationship with Yu Xiheng immediately began to look for Yu Xiheng in the endless crowd.
"They left a long time ago. We have been here for too long."
"No, I want my wife to go to Shangshu Mansion to talk to Madam Shangshu when we get back."
"Then I'll ask my daughter-in-law to go to the princess's mansion and ask."
"If anyone has news about the miracle doctor, please tell everyone."
Although they occasionally had tit-for-tat confrontations in the court, and their different opinions could make them red-faced, they were still surprisingly united in the face of their children's lives.
Several ministers quickly got into their carriages and asked the grooms to drive the carriages very fast, returning home as fast as an arrow.
As soon as he got home, the old lady didn't even have time to drink, so she asked her servants to summon her eldest daughter-in-law, Lan.
Because of her son's incident, Mrs. Lan couldn't eat much during this period and had trouble sleeping day and night. Now she has lost a lot of weight.
She was a little surprised to see her father-in-law, who was usually as steady as a rock, looking so anxious.
"Father, you are..."
The old lady got straight to the point, "Go to the House of the Minister of Revenue, talk to the Lady of the Minister, and ask her if she knows who cured the eldest princess's illness yesterday."
Lan was confused, not to mention that the eldest princess had been ill for more than ten years, how could she be cured in one day? Moreover, she had never interacted with Mrs. Lin, the wife of the minister.
"Father, who are you listening to? If someone can really cure the eldest princess overnight, wouldn't it be my pleasure..."
When Lan said this, he suddenly froze, with an incredible expression on his face.
"Father, you mean..."
Seeing that she understood, the old lady began to urge her again.
"I understand, why don't you go quickly? I'll let someone get there first later. The door of Shangshu Mansion will be blocked and you won't be able to get in."
"Yes, my daughter-in-law is going right now!"
Excitedly, Mrs. Lan asked someone to prepare a car and picked out a few expensive gifts from her private treasury. After thinking about it, she cruelly took the rubies that her husband had brought back from the north.
As long as she can save her son, let alone these things, even if she empties her private treasury!
As for the fact that she has never crossed paths with Mrs. Lin, it doesn't matter, she is thick-skinned!
When she rushed to Shangshu's Mansion in a hurry, she was relieved to see the empty door.
Fortunately, she was close and could get there the fastest.
Her eldest maid said to the porter in a good voice, "Excuse me, brother, please report that my wife is the eldest lady of the Taifu's residence, and she came to see your wife."
The concierge was surprised and walked quickly. He came back and forth in only a few minutes.
"My wife, please come in."
Lan got off the carriage and was led by the maid to the inner courtyard.
When she saw Lin, who was dressed in smoky purple clothes and had a beautiful face, Lan sighed secretly in her heart, and then walked up eagerly like an old friend she hadn't seen for many years.
"Sister Jingyue, I came in a hurry this time and didn't hand over the greeting card in advance. I hope you won't be surprised."
When Mrs. Lin heard that she came to see him, she was already confused, and now she was even more confused by her attitude, but she also smiled gently and accepted her words.
"How could it be possible? It's too late for me to be happy that Sister Lan can come."
Lan Ying was born in a Qingliu family and had always been noble and elegant. The wife she was friends with was also a young lady from the Qingliu family. She would never take the initiative to visit other families. Even if someone else wanted to have a baby or get married, she would always let her husband do it. come forward.
Lin didn't know why she suddenly came to see him today.
After Caichun finished serving tea, he left. At this time, another maid came to report that the Prime Minister's wife had something to meet.
Now Mrs. Lin didn't understand even more. Her relationship with the Prime Minister's wife hadn't reached the point of visiting her at home.
When Lan heard that the Prime Minister's wife had arrived, she was glad that she had arrived quickly.
She stopped inking and went straight to the point.
"Sister Jingyue, these are some little things I brought you. See if you like them."
"This..." Mrs. Lin was almost dazzled by the golden thing inside, and at the same time she felt even more strange.
She quickly pushed the gift over without looking away.
"I really don't dare to take it seriously. Sister, put it away quickly."
Lan was very persistent and pushed the gift over, "Sister Jingyue, actually I came here today to ask you something."
"If you have anything to do, sister, just tell me. Jing Yue will tell you everything."
Lan's eyes lit up, she had been waiting for this sentence.
"To be honest, my Xing'er has been unconscious since he was abducted and rescued. We have called many doctors, even the imperial doctor, but there is nothing we can do."
"After my father went to court this morning, I heard that the eldest princess was cured by a miraculous doctor in the palace yesterday. I also learned that your husband was also in the palace yesterday, so I came to ask who this miraculous doctor was."
