At this moment, he regarded Yun as the last straw, always thinking that she could save the second princess or the fourth prince.
But this hope was killed by Doctor Dou.
"Your Majesty, I am not an old minister who insists on pouring cold water on me. If this disease is indeed hereditary, then even if Hua Tuo is reincarnated, it will not be cured."
After hearing this, the emperor felt deeply that each of these children was more pitiful than the last.
Some died at birth, some died of an illness, some were implicated by their mothers, and some still don't know what their future fate will be.
Thinking of this, he shuddered.
He grabbed Doctor Dou's shoulders and said.
"Your concubine's baby will be born safely, right?"
His eyes were full of worry, and he wished he could rush back immediately to stay by Lin Wanyi's side.
I am afraid that something will happen to her, and I am also afraid that something will happen to my child.
Doctor Dou replied very firmly.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, everything is fine with your concubine. The old minister and the second wife are here, and they will definitely ensure that your concubine gives birth safely."
"What I want is for mother and child to be safe, do you understand?"
"Yes, I understand."
After hearing this, the emperor's worried mind finally calmed down.
The situation of the fourth prince is not stable now, and it is difficult for him to leave.
When he woke up and saw that nothing happened, the emperor still had to leave.
Firstly, he had promised to celebrate the second princess' first birthday, and secondly, he had to guard Lin Wanyi.
In this way, the schemes of those monsters and monsters will not fall on her head.
Just like this, worrying and worrying, almost a month passed.
On the day before the Ghost Festival, the emperor returned from the palace.
Lin Wan was shocked again when she saw the emperor coming out of the secret passage.
"Why didn't your Majesty reveal any news? I thought you weren't coming back."
There was a little bit of coquettishness in her words, but the emperor had no thoughts at the moment.
Seeing that the emperor's expression was not good, Lin Wanyi stopped joking and asked with worry on his face.
"Your Majesty, what happened?"
When the emperor heard this, he buried his head in her arms. His whole body was like an eggplant beaten by frost, exuding an aura of decadence.
Lin Wanyi even felt a touch of moisture.
Is the emperor crying?
After having this idea, Lin Wanyi didn't care about anything else and immediately hugged the emperor back.
Even though her belly is now between them, she still wants the emperor to know that she is here.
"The fourth prince fell into the water a few days ago, but Concubine Ying delayed his treatment. Doctor Cheng said that he can no longer hear sound in his left ear."
"What?"
Lin Wanyi was obviously shocked by the news.
She had only met the fourth prince a few times, but looking at his physique and giggles, she knew he was a very strong boy.
how come?!
"Why did Concubine Ying delay the fourth prince's treatment? Isn't he the child's mother?"
Lin Wanyi didn't understand how Concubine Ying, who always regarded the fourth prince as a treasure, could delay the child's treatment. This made her extremely confused.
"There is a hereditary disease in Concubine Ying's family, and when it attacks, she looks like crazy. Therefore, she did not let the fourth prince take the medicine prescribed by Dr. Cheng, so it was delayed from noon to midnight. The child suddenly went from choking on a few mouthfuls of water to having a fever and convulsions.
He died, and after being rescued, he became deaf in his left ear."
Hearing this, Li Wanyi suddenly realized.
He said immediately.
"Can Second Aunt's golden needle be saved?"
The emperor shook his head when he heard this, and said with sorrow in his eyes.
"I've asked the second lady to come over and have a look, but there's nothing I can do about it."
Lin Wanyi could feel the emperor's forbearance and pain when he said these four words: "I can't save my life."
As a father, she believed that the emperor was very sad at the moment.
The disability of his left ear also means that even if the fourth prince grows up safely, there is no possibility of inheriting the throne.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes will be focused on the second and third princes.
Although the possibility of the second prince is not high, everyone can see his gradual improvement.
Therefore, Lin Wanyi had to take precautions.
"I know what you are worried about. I have already asked your brother to select a few guards with excellent skills to personally protect the second prince. As for the third prince, Concubine Yi has taken good care of him and has never made any mistakes."
As soon as these words came out, Lin Wanyi vaguely felt that she had missed something.
But I couldn't tell for a while.
"Your Majesty has thought carefully and made proper arrangements. If the second prince knows about it, he will be very happy."
"Qianqian, I only have two princes now. It would be great if you could give birth to a smart and healthy prince for me."
If the emperor's prayer were heard by other concubines, they would jump with joy.
But Lin Wanyi knew very well that morality was not matched, so she was very worried.
Therefore, he did not directly answer the emperor's words, but just calmly spoke to him.
"There will be, there will definitely be."
The emperor sighed a few times, found a place to lie next to Lin Wanyi, and fell asleep.
It seemed that only by her side could the emperor sleep more peacefully.
Looking at the emperor's brows that were still frowning even in his sleep, Lin Wanyi touched her belly.
Worry turned into determination.
The news that the emperor had returned to the palace did not make many people suspicious.
After all, the matter between the fourth prince and Concubine Ying was causing quite a stir, and he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to.
Later, the emperor simply pretended to be walking away and left the palace.
Concubine Yi also felt a lot of pity about the situation of the fourth prince, but she was still happy from the bottom of her heart to have one less person who would strive for unification in the future.
It's a pity that those who want to compete for favors can't get in the way of the emperor. Now they are even separated by dozens of miles. How can they get favors again?
In the entire palace, the most calm people are the Queen Mother and the noble Qian.
Both of them knew very well why the emperor chose this time to return to the palace.
To put it bluntly, it was for Lin Wanyi and the child in her belly.
The fourth prince died, and the royal family lost another healthy prince. Therefore, the Queen Mother also had high expectations for the child in Lin Wanyi's belly at this time.
It would be best if one of them is a prince, which can make up for it a little bit.
But if there are two, it seems that it is not as difficult to accept as before.
At least as far as the current situation is concerned, one more prince means more stability.
Thinking of this, the Queen Mother made a show of herself and started complaining that she had a headache every day, asking the concubines to take turns to attend to her illness.
In this way, they don't have much other thoughts to care about other things.
Others didn't understand the reason and complained more or less.
But Qiangui understood the mystery and therefore understood it.
It seems that the Queen Mother has already acquiesced in this matter, so she will not touch eggs with stones.
So when it comes to serving the Queen Mother, she is the one who is most serious.
What came and went caught the Queen Mother's eye.
For the Queen Mother who has experienced great storms, her favorite people are people like Qian Guiren.
