Chapter 2399 The strangeness of Huaichang's mother and daughter
At the end of the letter, Mrs. Zhou said that Concubine Zhou's condition looked too bad and she was worried that something would happen.
Therefore, I begged the Queen Mother to let the medical elders enter the palace to show Concubine Zhou.
Empress Dowager Shen had already agreed and asked Gu Fenglin and Mu Yunhan if it would be convenient for the medical elder to make this trip.
What Zhou Taibin said sounded like a mother's reluctance and distress for her daughter who was about to get married.
But if you think about it carefully, it's all a problem.
Who is a normal mother who can’t remember what happened to her only daughter when she was a child?
The feeling of being a mother is unmistakable. How can I obviously give birth to a fat child, but get a dark and thin child?
She is much taller than her biological mother, and much taller than her sisters. Her skin is still very dark, unlike neither her biological father nor her biological mother. She has tried her best to turn it white, but she can't.
I'm sorry for Huaichang, I made Huaichang suffer a lot but couldn't do anything about it.
Huaichang had suffered some hardships, but they were not miserable, and these words seemed like Empress Dowager Shen and others had treated their mother and daughter poorly. It was hard to imagine that someone living in the palace would say such things.
There are strange things everywhere, and the most critical point is the sentence "I got sick when I was pregnant and took a lot of medicine."
After Mu Yunhan discussed with Gu Fenglin, he immediately wrote a letter to the medical elder.
Let him accompany the Zhou family into the palace and find out when exactly Zhou Taiconcubine started to get sick.
In addition, Gu Fenglin also began to arrange for people to investigate some of Zhou Taibin's early years.
The next morning, Mu Yunhan received a reply.
To be precise, Zhou Taibin never got sick before and after she was pregnant with Huaichang, and her health was very good.
She fell ill after giving birth to Huaichang. It was originally a normal delivery and everything was fine, but suddenly she died.
She rested for a long time before taking Huaichang back to be raised. At that time, Huaichang was almost half a year old.
But after that time, her health deteriorated and she could no longer be pampered and was bedridden all year round.
Everyone in the palace said that she was harmed by Concubine Jiang. Concubine Jiang was jealous of her beauty and was afraid that she would win favor, so she secretly drugged her.
As for Huaichang's appearance when he was a child, the palace officials had their own opinions.
It was thought that Concubine Zhou was ill and could not take care of Huaichang, and the wet nurse was not interested, so she was hungry.
And according to the news from the medical elder, Concubine Zhou's condition is indeed critical.
It can be said that if Mrs. Zhou had not visited her and found something bad, Mrs. Zhou would have been able to survive for about ten days at most.
In accordance with Mu Yunhan's request, Mrs. Zhou tactfully told the story that Concubine Zhou might be underserved by the palace servants around her.
Empress Dowager Shen took it very seriously. After all, the marriage between Huaichang and Gu Fengyuan was a foregone conclusion.
The current situation is complicated and complicated, and it is really not appropriate to cause further turmoil without certainty.
Therefore, Empress Dowager Shen severely punished and replaced the people around Zhou Taibin, temporarily sent her confidants to take care of Zhou Taibin, and agreed to let the medical elders treat Zhou Taibin.
Zhou specifically told Mu Yunhan: "The Queen Mother is an amazing person. She has shouldered a lot of things on her own. Our whole family should be grateful to her."
Mu Yunhan and Gu Fenglin understood.
The reason why the situation remained stable and the emperor did not rush to take action against Gu Fenglin was because Empress Dowager Shen was there to stabilize the situation.
It was also because of Queen Mother Shen that the Shen family and sisters dared to continue running towards them.
Zhou added another meaningful sentence at the end: "The Empress asked me to say hello to my nephew and let my nephew's wife return to Beijing to play in the palace. The eldest son of the emperor misses you."
