Therefore, the second prince was both disappointed and hopeful about Concubine Lan.
He walked forward, his face still expressionless.
Concubine Lan was used to seeing him like this, so she was naturally unhappy.
But in front of the emperor, it was inevitable to show off.
She reached out and touched his forehead, then touched his forehead.
"Fortunately, I don't have a fever. What your body fears most is heat. The sun outside is so fierce, but you still sneaked out. When Aunt Chai heard that you were gone, she anxiously sent someone to look for you.
.”
Then he said slightly apologetically to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, Aunt Chai has been serving the Second Prince since she was a child. She was more anxious than anyone else when the Second Prince sneaked out. The reason why she did not report it to Eunuch Dong was because she was afraid of disturbing the Emperor's handling of state affairs."
"After I learned about it, I immediately sent people to search everywhere."
Aunt Chai cried with joy. Concubine Lan's words helped pull her to the place of death.
Thinking of this, Concubine Lan could no longer care about her round belly and knelt down.
But he didn't say anything more.
"Eunuch Dong, you're welcome."
In order to avoid suspicion, Concubine Lan just pretended not to see it.
"Yes, yes, Concubine Lan is right. I have been serving you for a long time, so I think of you when something happens. Please don't get angry about this. I will not dare to do it next time."
Aunt Chai opened her mouth, but she thought that there was a whole family living outside the palace relying on Concubine Lan and her family.
The hint of support in those eyes was very obvious.
"These things were all dug out of Aunt Chai's box, and the things used in the Second Prince's bedroom are very ordinary."
I kept asking myself in my mind, what is there to look forward to?
When Concubine Lan saw this, she also pretended to be frightened.
Concubine Lan has always been gentle and kind-hearted, so no one commented on her behavior.
Even though she has eighteen mouths, she can't speak clearly.
In his heart, he felt that his father would punish an old slave who failed in his duties, but would not implicate a pregnant concubine who was still powerful in the previous dynasty.
"How is the Second Prince doing?"
"Your Majesty, this concubine is guilty. Aunt Chai usually takes care of the second prince very well, but she would... It was my concubine's negligence that made the second prince suffer. I ask the emperor to punish me."
"Your Majesty, I took the two imperial doctors to search the second prince's yard and the houses of Aunt Chai and others, and found a lot of things."
"This servant would like to pay his respects to the Emperor and to Concubine Lan."
"Why are you standing there? Why don't you throw her body out to feed the dogs! If anything happens to the second prince, I want her whole family to be buried with her!"
He turned to the emperor and continued to plead.
Seeing this, the emperor also shut up.
I really look down on myself now.
At this glance, Concubine Lan was immediately shocked.
Looking at the bleeding Aunt Chai on the ground, the hatred in her eyes became more and more obvious.
On the other side, the emperor hugged the second prince and placed him on the couch under the bright window, and immediately called Doctor Dou.
Isn't this the result you already knew?
A trace of anger and hatred flashed in Concubine Lan's eyes.
On the other hand, Zhuiyun beside her nodded slightly. After seeing this, Aunt Chai felt relieved.
Especially the young second prince was stunned on the spot.
He suddenly twitched and pouted over.
He pulled out the hairpin from his head, gritted his teeth and inserted it into his heart.
Seeing the two masters and servants acting like this, the second prince's only hope for Concubine Lan was completely uprooted.
If you are eight months pregnant and have a premature birth, it will be very dangerous!
When she saw Concubine Lan, her eyes were briefly shocked, but she soon calmed down.
Centennial ginseng, huge dongzhu, and jade carvings the size of an arm. Although there are not many things, everything is very valuable.
As he said that, he asked people to take out all the things.
Suddenly, the entire Qiqing Hall was in chaos.
Scared out of my wits.
He simply remained silent.
For a moment, the whole room was as quiet as it was before Concubine Lan came.
But committing suicide in front of him still left a deep mark on the young heart of the second prince.
Otherwise, this fall would be terrible.
She didn't shirk responsibility, but saying this was tantamount to trying to survive by cutting off her arms.
Doctor Dou didn't say anything, and began to diagnose the pulse while holding his breath.
Is it possible that good chess pieces are about to disappear like this?
Eunuch Dong said expressionlessly.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to blame yourself. It was only because I was obsessed with money that I wanted to swallow up all the rewards given to the second prince. It is my fault, and I will bear it all."
Just a mere slave, how dare you be so arrogant!
I'm afraid there may not be an expert backing me up.
As expected, Dong Yuzhong soon brought two imperial doctors back with a serious look on his face.
Therefore, hitting an egg against a stone is bound to result in failure.
Although he hated Aunt Chai very much, he also thought about killing her.
"yes!"
Then he glanced at Aunt Chai on the ground, and even he felt that it was a bit too much.
After saluting, Dong Yuzhong said straight to the point.
asked very anxiously.
Could it be that I said something wrong?
I felt a little panicked in my heart, but I still had to pretend that nothing happened on my face.
I cried out pain when I held my stomach.
Seeing this, Aunt Chai suddenly collapsed to the ground.
No one dared to delay.
So he kowtowed to Concubine Lan and apologized.
Dr. Cheng also followed over to see the situation.
After saying that, he took a deep look at Concubine Lan.
He said with tears in his eyes.
"Old slave Lard is deceived and does not dare to ask for forgiveness from the emperor and the second prince. However, the young and old in the family know nothing about this. The old slave is willing to die to apologize and please the emperor not to harm the family."
Then he kept his head lowered and didn't say another word.
As soon as these words came out, everyone knew that Aunt Chai could not get away with the crime of neglecting her duties and committing theft.
Even if she died, she would have no choice but to admit it by herself.
No one in the palace expected that she would die so decisively.
Concubine Lan was pregnant and could not sleep well at the moment. Dong Yuzhong quickly asked Zhuiyun and Zhuiyue to support her and send her to the side hall to rest.
But Qiu Ming, who was waiting outside, felt worried that a storm was about to come.
He smiled bitterly.
The emperor glanced at Concubine Lan, with a look of disappointment that Concubine Lan had never seen before.
Fortunately, the emperor was standing not far away from him and caught his head when he fell and hit the ground.
"Your Majesty, there is not even a glass of water in the second prince's bedroom."
Fortunately, the imperial doctor was right in front of him, and he immediately came forward to diagnose and treat me.
In anger, no one dared to approach the emperor.
Afraid of being implicated.
Doctor Dou, who was diagnosing the pulse at the side, also frowned.
He said to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, the second prince's fainting was caused by his anger and attack on his heart. It's nothing serious. A simple acupuncture will do the trick, but..."
