Dugu Liancheng knew about this, but was too involved in political affairs to take it into consideration.
In the blink of an eye, the little prince has been more than two months old.
Dugu Liancheng's heart was focused on the government affairs, and he could not take care of the harem. He went to Feiyuxuan only a few times.
The servants serving at Feiyuxuan began to feel lazy when they saw this situation.
Because of this, the little prince suddenly contracted a cough again, which became increasingly serious. Later, after asking the imperial doctor, he finally got better.
Geng entered the palace that day and was about to go to Yong'an Palace. Unexpectedly, he met a young eunuch on the way and said that the Queen Mother was waiting in the imperial garden.
Geng did not doubt that he had it, and followed the young eunuch to the imperial garden...
Mu Ci never expected that Geng's trip to the imperial garden would actually bring disaster.
When she received the news, Geng no longer knew where he was being held.
As for the specific situation, she had no way of finding out, but it had something to do with the little prince.
"My servant has inquired, and it seems that both Empress Shuyuan and the young prince are ill. The young prince's cough suddenly recurred, saying that it was a sequelae caused by the madam's poisoning." Sizhu told Mu Ci the news he had found out.
Other more specific information has been blocked by the emperor and cannot be known.
This matter is of great importance. If anything happens to the little prince, it will be a disaster.
Even if the empress is the current Queen Mother, she may not be able to protect the Geng family.
"How could my mother poison the little prince if she is honest about her duties? It's simply ridiculous!" Mu Ci frowned coldly: "Furthermore, how could the news of the Ai family letting their mother enter the palace leak out? How could my mother be deceived?
In the imperial garden, you bumped into the little prince?!"
This was all too coincidental, someone must have framed my mother.
"My servant suspects that Chun Zhaorong is behind the scenes, and the purpose is to harm the madam. Your Majesty needs to make a decision early. When necessary, you still have to go -" Sizhu stopped talking.
Mu Ci was stunned and immediately understood what Sizhu meant.
This is to ask her to beg the emperor. Recently, the emperor has not entered the harem and is busy with government affairs, so this kind of thing happened when he came to the harem.
She can't see her mother. Now her mother has been arrested and the little prince's condition is unknown. If this matter is not handled well, her mother may not end up well.
"Have you found out where my mother is?" Mu Ci asked.
"The emperor has issued a gag order and there is no way to know the details."
"It seems that the only choice is to go to the emperor." Mu Ci's face darkened.
She hurriedly left Yong'an Palace and headed to Yanfu Palace. The guard said that the emperor was in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
After going to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the guard said that the emperor had just left.
Finally, she turned back to Yanfu Palace. This time the emperor was here, but she was blocked from the palace.
Not long after, Li Yu came out and replied: "Your Majesty, please come back. Your Majesty does not want to see your Majesty!"
"If the Ai family has something urgent to do, it won't take long to find the emperor." Mu Ci's heart tightened.
Dugu Liancheng must have known her purpose, but he avoided seeing her. Was he determined to condemn his mother?
Or is the little prince's condition getting worse?
"This... I'm going to send you another message. My Majesty, please wait a moment." Li Yu said and entered Yanfu Palace again.
About a quarter of an hour later, Li Yu came out again and gave the same answer: "I conveyed your Majesty's words, but the Emperor still doesn't want to see your Majesty."
Mu Ci's heart sank.
Is Dugu Liancheng deliberately making things difficult for her, or is it because the young prince's condition has worsened and the emperor has a grudge and is unwilling to give his mother a chance to defend herself?
No matter what, she could only continue to wait here until the emperor was willing to see her.
