Xuan Tianmo couldn't figure out the truth of the matter no matter how much he thought about it. He carried the woman on the bed to the servants' room without throwing her out of the house or killing her. He even invited a doctor to treat her.
.Because he still hopes that this woman will be able to remember something after she wakes up, such as how to get out of the palace and how to enter Prince Sheng's Mansion. Even if there is only a little clue, it is very important to him.
And on this day, the atmosphere in the palace was not relaxed. First, during the morning court, Emperor Tianwu found that the eighth prince had not come, and no one asked for leave. He was anxious, and immediately sent Wu Ying to Prince Sheng's Mansion to inquire about the situation. But Prince Sheng's Mansion
You can't say that your master delayed the morning court because he was favoring a woman! So he could only plead his illness for the eighth prince, saying that the eighth prince suddenly fell ill last night and was too ill to go to court. He hoped that the emperor would atone for his sins.
When Wu Ying brought the news back to the palace, the morning court had already dispersed. Emperor Tianwu was eating snacks in the company of Concubine Yuan Shu. When the news of the eighth prince's illness came, both of them were very worried. The emperor
He immediately ordered the Imperial Hospital to send people to Prince Sheng's Mansion to diagnose and treat the Eighth Prince.
When the imperial doctor arrived at Prince Sheng's Mansion, Xuan Tianmo was taking a bath. While taking a bath, he felt sorry for his lower body. The soreness and soreness were something he would never forget in his life.
The imperial doctor waited outside for a long time before seeing Xuan Tianmo, but Xuan Tianmo showed them no illness and let the imperial doctor take his pulse in a decent manner. The imperial doctor thought that the eighth prince was not sick at all? But he
Since he claimed to be ill, he must have had his own plan. He was very smart. Combined with the power of the Eighth Prince and Concubine Yuan Shu, and the Emperor's attitude, he even deceived the Eighth Prince.
I had some symptoms of wind and cold, so I was prescribed a warming tonic, but there was no harm in taking it.
Xuan Tianmo was very satisfied with the imperial doctor's knowledge of current affairs, and gave him a reward to send him back. However, when the imperial doctor left the palace, he happened to meet two doctors who had also entered Prince Sheng's Mansion for treatment. But those two people
It was to see the woman, not to see the Eighth Prince. After the two left the mansion, they walked and murmured in a low voice. One of them asked the other: "Is it true that we can't talk about this?"
The people on the side nodded and said firmly: "You must not say it! If you say it, we will die."
"But, why? She's just a woman. She doesn't seem to have any status. I can't protect the singers and dancers I found from somewhere. I just throw them out after contracting the disease. I'm not the mistress of the house. I can't say anything.
Isn’t that what we are here to see a doctor for?”
The other person shook his head, "That's not what we came here to see. We came here to save the life of the woman. Maybe the Eighth Prince would still be useful if he kept her. The state of the woman could be seen by any fool. She just lost her virginity."
If a person is lucky enough to have his body broken in Prince Sheng's Mansion and be able to ask a doctor to treat it, then besides the eighth prince, who else could have her body broken? If she is infected with such a disease, how can she have sex with him?
How could the Eighth Prince not be infected! Let’s pretend we don’t know about this matter. It’s best to pack up and leave the capital immediately after returning. Otherwise, once the Eighth Prince discovers that he is infected, the first thing he will do is kill someone.
Silence and keep this secret. Let’s not delay, it’s important to escape.”
Seeing the pace of the two doctors quickening in a hurry, the imperial doctor who came out of the palace broke into a cold sweat. He stopped, turned his head and looked at Prince Sheng's Mansion, which was not far behind him, and felt entangled in his heart.
Should he tell the Eighth Prince about this? He had just checked the Eighth Prince's pulse, but if it was a party last night, he would not be able to diagnose the disease in such a short period of time. But if it is really as the two doctors said, then
If the woman is infected with the disease, the Eighth Prince will definitely not be able to escape. If he does not tell the current situation, this matter will not be traced to him in the future, because it will be at least five days before the Eighth Prince shows symptoms. What if he does?
? Then there is an opportunity to side with the Eighth Prince and Concubine Yuan Shu. Based on the emperor's current attitude, the throne will belong to the Eighth Prince sooner or later.
He was a little excited, but when he thought about it again, he felt that his thoughts were too impulsive. How long has the emperor been kind to the eighth prince and Concubine Yuan Shu? He has been kind to the ninth prince for so many years! This matter is still
You have to observe again.
In Prince Sheng's Mansion, no one knew about the woman's illness. The two doctors only gave medicine to stop the bleeding, and also prescribed many supplements to save the woman's life. At this moment, at the other end of the palace,
Concubine Yuan Shu looked at Zi Rui, who came to dine with Emperor Tianwu and looked normal, and felt entangled in her heart.
Why does this child look the same as yesterday? Ordinarily, at such a young age, if he is suddenly assigned a teller, he should at least come and inquire with the emperor? Or inquire with the servants? Or even if there is no one,
Asked, it should be a little unnatural. Why does he look like he is fine? Could it be... She thought in her mind, could it be that this child had eaten meat before last night? But she couldn't see it.
Like!
Concubine Yuan Shu's assessment was very direct, Zi Rui could naturally feel it, but he firmly remembered Feng Yuheng's instructions to him before leaving, so he tried his best to keep himself in the same state as yesterday, as if something had happened.
Nothing has happened, everything is business as usual.
Emperor Tianwu smiled and talked to Zi Rui, and from time to time he took another bite of the food brought by Concubine Yuan Shu. He looked very good. However, Concubine Yuan Shu's calculations in her heart were overturned, and she was a little anxious for the first time.
Why didn't Emperor Wu finish the dinner? After eating, she hurriedly read the book for a while. She also had a chance to go to the woman and ask about last night. She felt uneasy in her heart, always feeling that what she did last night was something bad.
But after thinking about it, I still can't imagine what could happen in this tightly guarded palace where everyone is my own people inside and outside?
Finally, after dinner was finished, Emperor Tianwu talked to Zirui for a while and asked about his homework before letting Zirui leave. Zirui bowed politely to Emperor Tianwu and Concubine Yuan Shu.
She was also respectful to Concubine Yuan Shu, without showing any dissatisfaction. After bowing, she exited Zhaohe Hall and returned to her own small palace. Concubine Yuan Shu personally waited on Emperor Tianwu, rinsed his mouth, and then accompanied him.
She asked him to sit down at the table in the outer hall, and it wasn't until Emperor Tianwu started to read the book that she excused herself and left. Before leaving, Emperor Tianwu reluctantly said, "Why don't you go back to Cunshan Palace?
It's cold, the journey is still far, so just rest in Zhaohe Hall, I will still come over in the evening."
Concubine Yuan Shu quickly thanked her, but she still insisted on going back, saying that she could not be arrogant because of her favor, as this would leave a mark for others.
Emperor Tianwu felt very comfortable hearing these sensible words, and then he nodded and asked her to leave, and kept saying: "Just wait for me in the palace, and I will send someone to pick you up after I finish approving the book."
They look like a loving couple.
Concubine Yuan Shu indeed returned to Cunshan Palace, but the first thing she did after returning was to summon the nuns who were close to her. Before that, the imperial doctor who had treated the Eighth Prince from Prince Sheng's Mansion returned to the palace.
When she replied to the emperor, she only said that His Highness the Eighth Prince had caught some colds and it was nothing serious. He would be fine after taking a few doses of medicine. But now she was feeling panicked. She always felt that what happened to Feng Zirui last night could have something to do with her prince.
These relationships are mentioned above, but what exactly are the relationships?
The nun who was responsible for cultivating knowledgeable people in the palace came to Concubine Yuan Shu tremblingly, knelt down with a plop, and said directly: "This old slave is guilty, please punish Concubine Shu."
Concubine Yuan Shu shook her hand, and the hot tea poured out, making her grin. But she couldn't care about her hands at this time, and quickly asked the nanny: "What happened? Tell me!"
The nanny said hollowly: "The girl Xiaowan who was arranged to live with the young master of the Feng family disappeared last night! Someone from the young master of the Feng family came to report in the morning, saying that the young master of the Feng family slept well alone and was well-dressed.
The bed was neat and tidy, and there was no one else in the room except him. Xiao Wan had indeed gone in, and the servants saw it, and heard voices after entering. But then there was no movement.
They thought they were asleep, and they thought they couldn't hear their movements. However, they discovered that Xiaowan was missing this morning. When they asked the young master of the Feng family, he said that no one entered his room last night and that he slept very well.
Death, knowing nothing.”
Concubine Yuan Shu was shocked, "Missing? How is it possible!" The palace is now as dense as a cage, and all the arrangements are made by the Eighth Prince's people. How is it possible for a woman to disappear for no reason? "Have you ever looked for her?
"
"The old slave also felt that the situation was serious. He searched secretly in the palace for a whole day, but couldn't find even a shadow." The nanny also looked puzzled, "It's like the person disappeared suddenly.
It's like it never appeared at all, just like the young master of the Feng family said, nothing happened last night."
Concubine Yuan Shu broke out in a cold sweat. No wonder Feng Zirui behaved so naturally today. She fell asleep at her lover's house last night and didn't even know that the woman had gone in. And the woman only went in for a short time, so she definitely didn't.
She succeeded and then disappeared. What was the reason for this? Did the woman hide herself, or did Feng Zirui have helpers around her?
She was puzzled, but she didn't embarrass the nanny. She just said: "Keep looking for me. Even if you dig three feet in this palace, I still have to find him! Also, don't worry about it.
Those concubines and palaces went in and searched one by one. They said that I had lost the bracelet that the emperor had given me when I entered the palace. They had to search every corner. Even the old woman’s Jingci Palace, the empress, could not leave it.
Pass!"
After these instructions, the palace immediately began a blatant search, causing all the concubines in the harem to sigh bitterly, but they did not dare to say anything. Concubine Yuan Shu was now the most beloved person of Emperor Tianwu, and even the queen
They all chose to be patient. Even Concubine Yun didn't take any action. What else could they do?
Unfortunately, nearly a night of searching yielded no results. It was just such a fuss that everyone in the harem couldn't sleep well. They were all wondering why Concubine Yuan Shu was so crazy. Was she really just looking for a bracelet?
Faced with such a search, the one who was most afraid was actually Li Fei. She was not afraid of looking for any bracelets. She was afraid that the things in her house would be discovered by outsiders. Both the memorial tablet and the coffin would be discovered once they were discovered.
But what to do?
However, the more she was afraid of something, the more it came. There was nowhere to hide so many of her things, and the people who came in to search found them in just a few seconds, and people couldn't help but be shocked. The leading lady took Li Fei and Yuan Shu
After thinking about the relationship between the concubines, they did not make any announcement, but chose to stabilize Concubine Li temporarily, and then secretly sent someone to report to Concubine Shu...
