Night enveloped the imperial city, and no one could sleep peacefully that night.
Although the prince was urged to leave by the emperor, he did not rest. He handled government affairs in the duty room in the outer hall and was told that the prince would not go back to sleep tonight.
The princess was not surprised that the prince did not come back to sleep, nor was she worried.
"This has nothing to do with the Crown Prince in the first place." The Crown Princess said, "The Crown Prince didn't go to the banquet. Can you blame His Highness if something goes wrong? Your Majesty is not that confused."
Yao Fu came in with her head lowered and a late-night snack in her hand. Because the prince said it was useful to keep her, the prince's attitude towards Yao Fu was a little better - she could come into the house.
After hearing this, she said cautiously: "I am afraid that someone will slander me and accuse the prince of being jealous of the third prince."
The Crown Princess smiled: "What is there about the Third Prince that His Highness is jealous of? Is he a sickly body?" She took the soup cup and stirred it gently with a spoon, "To say that you are pitiful is that others are pitiful. A good banquet is a waste of time."
The third prince's interference is an unreasonable disaster. He is not in good health and cannot stay alone well, yet he comes out to harm others."
Yao Fu nodded and whispered: "This is because of Chen Danzhu. The third prince went to that banquet just to have a private meeting with Chen Danzhu."
She knows best what a man thinks about.
The Crown Princess was also wary of her thoughts and glared at her while holding a spoon: "You should give up. Unless the third prince dies this time, the emperor will never blame Chen Danzhu. Chen Danzhu now has an iron-faced general.
Be a backer."
Yao Fu lowered her head and murmured: "Sister, I didn't mean that."
The Crown Princess didn't bother to know whether she had it or not, so she just said: "Get out."
Yao Fu hurriedly left with her plate, her head lowered and her face covered. She stood outside the door, hidden in the shadow of the lamp, with no shame on her face. She looked at the princess and curled her lips.
When the sky was bright, the prince on duty in the outer palace put down the pen in his hand, stretched behind the pile of documents, and stretched his sore shoulders.
Fuqing came in with hot tea and snacks, followed by a eunuch. Seeing the prince's appearance, he said distressedly: "Your Highness, please rest quickly."
This is the eunuch in front of the emperor. The prince nodded to him and asked first: "How is your appearance?"
The eunuch hurriedly said: "Your Majesty specially asked your servant to tell the Third Prince that he is awake, so that His Highness should not worry."
The prince's whole body relaxed, he took the hot tea and held it tightly: "That's good, that's good." He stood up and sat down again, as if he wanted to see the third prince, but then gave up, "It's just right to fix your appearance."
, is mentally weak, so I won’t visit him, so as not to waste his energy."
The eunuch responded and said with a smile: "Your Majesty said the same thing. Your Majesty and Your Majesty are really connected as father and son, and they have the same mind."
The prince smiled, and the eunuch took his leave. Fuqing saw him off in person. When he came in again, he saw the prince standing by the table holding hot tea.
"What's going on?" he asked.
Fuqing lowered his head and came closer and whispered: "I don't know what's going on."
The prince frowned: "I don't know?"
Fu Qing came closer again and whispered: "The news from the empress is that the things have been put into the tea, but before he could drink it, the third prince had an attack after eating the almond cake. This is really——"
The prince held the hot tea and drank it slowly, with a calm expression: "Where is the tea?"
Fu Qing whispered: "Don't worry, if you spill it, there will be no traces. Although the teapot has been collected, the medicine is only in that cup."
The prince drank tea slowly, and the hot tea soothed his tired face: "Almond cake, who did it?"
Fu Qing said: "Perhaps it was the work of the noble clan, and it was a coincidence."
The prince didn't say anything. He drank a cup of tea and twirled the cup in his hand: "Have everyone's hands been cleaned?"
"Two people died in the imperial dining room." Fu Qing said, "The empress said that no more people could die, otherwise there would be trouble, and we would have to deal with it later."
The prince hummed and put down the tea cup: "Go back, my father has already worked hard enough, I can't let him worry too."
Fuqing responded, followed the prince out of the duty room, got on the carriage and headed towards the East Palace in the morning light.
In the palace filled with morning light, the emperor finished his breakfast, rubbed his brow slightly tiredly, and listened to the eunuchs reporting to the prince back to the East Palace.
"I heard that His Highness woke up and went back to rest." Eunuch Jinzhong said, "His Royal Highness knows best not to let Your Majesty take any trouble."
The emperor nodded: "I have always told him since he was a child that he must protect himself and never do anything that damages his body."
At this point, there was a sound of coughing from behind the curtain. The emperor hurriedly got up. Eunuch Jin Zhong trotted to lift the curtain first. At a glance, he saw the third prince lying on the bedside coughing. Xiao Qu held up a spittoon. After several coughs, the third prince vomited.
Black blood bleeds.
The emperor was so frightened that he called the imperial physician: "What's going on?"
The two imperial doctors on duty here were embarrassed to look at Qi Nu.
Qi Nu stepped forward and knelt down: "Your Majesty, this slave gave His Highness the Third Highness a few injections. It would be better if he vomited the black blood."
The emperor looked at the third prince who was lying back on the bed, his face as white as a piece of paper, with his thin lips turning red. He frowned and scolded: "You have to report back before using needles or medicine. How can you do anything on your own?"
Qi Nu kowtowed and trembled: "This slave is guilty."
What else did the emperor want to say? The third prince, who had his eyes closed on the bed, murmured: "Father, don't blame her - she saved me -"
The emperor stopped talking before he finished speaking, with a helpless expression. This son has such a gentle and repaying temper. He leaned over the bed and held the third prince's hand: "Okay, okay, I don't blame her."
." Looking at Qi Nu who was kneeling on the ground, she said, "Get up quickly. Thank you very much."
Qi Nu repeatedly said she didn't dare. Eunuch Jin Zhong reminded her in a low voice to obey the emperor's orders, and Qi Nu got up timidly.
"Father." The third prince opened his eyes, "I'm fine. I'd better go back."
The emperor scolded: "What's the rush? Just stay here and be safe."
The third prince responded, and pushed himself up again: "Father, let me wash it, I want to change clothes -"
He was afraid of dirtying the dragon's bed. Alas, the emperor had no choice but to say, "You are not in good health yet. Why are you so anxious?"
The third prince begged: "Father, otherwise I won't be able to lie down."
The emperor could only see the imperial physician, and after some thought he decided to see Qi Nu.
The imperial doctors were alert and kept silent.
Qi Nu lowered her head and said: "The third highness has vomited black blood and is fine. But he is still weak and can be washed by the servants."
The emperor nodded. There was a bathroom next to the palace. The hot spring water provided by him could be used for bathing at any time. The eunuchs stepped forward and helped the third prince to the bathroom. The emperor looked at his daughter again and said, "Follow me quickly and watch His Highness."
Qi Nu responded and followed her.
After entering the bathroom, Qi Nu stepped forward to help untie her clothes. The third prince sat half-sitting, looking down at the unbuttoned coat. There was a trace of tea on the inside of the cuffs——
"These clothes are dirty." He lowered his eyes and said, "Xiaoqu, take them away and throw them away."
Xiaoqu responded, taking the coat and rolling it up.
Here, Qi Nu stretched out her hand to untie her undergarment. She was half-sitting on the back of two eunuchs. The third prince's gaze happened to fall in front of the woman, and he looked at the necklace she was wearing around her neck, swaying gently and shining brightly.
"Are you the sister of Prince Qi?" he asked.
After waking up, he saw a strange woman beside him. Xiaoqu had already told him her origins, but he didn't have the strength to ask until now.
Because she had to take off her undergarment, Qi Nu came very close and could feel the young prince's breath. Her ears turned red and she lowered her head and whispered softly: "I dare not call you the crown prince's sister. I am a member of the queen mother's clan."
Girl, she was chosen by the Queen Mother to serve the Crown Prince."
The clothes were untied, and the young prince's naked chest appeared in front of his eyes. Qi Nu lowered her head, slowly knelt down, took off her clothes, and heard a voice asking from above: "What's your name?"
Qi Nu half-knelt on the ground, took off the prince's last robe, and looked at his smooth and slender ankles.
"My name is Ning Ning."
