Chapter 40 The Crown Prince Ill
In Nuanxiang Pavilion, Su Wenyan did not wait for her grandson to arrive, but only heard a surprising piece of news.
The prince suffered from an old illness and now had a high fever. He collapsed when he came back and his life was in danger.
All the female relatives in the East Palace were accompanying them, and those like Su Wenyan could only wait outside, unable to enter.
In the room, the Crown Princess, Concubine Guo and others were taking care of her. Even the Grand Concubine, who was not going out, was also waiting in the house at this time.
Just wait until the third watch.
The imperial doctor came in and out of the house.
Zeng Liangdi stood beside Su Wenyan, fidgeting with the veil constantly, looking a little frightened.
"Su Chenghui, what's wrong with the prince? Is he suffering from some old illness?"
Su Wenyan knew a little bit. At the moment, she could only say: "Although I entered the palace earlier than you, there are many things that I don't know very well. I don't know what old illness the prince has."
Hui Liangdi had a big belly and was wearing two layers of shawls. She seemed a little cold after waiting outside for too long.
Hu Liangdi couldn't stand her pretentious look, so she snorted and said to Zeng Liangdi.
"Zeng Liangdi, what is the use of asking Su Chenghui? What can she know?"
Su Wenyan looked at her quietly and asked, "So, Hu Liangdi, do you know something?"
"My grandfather was a veteran who followed the emperor in the war, so he naturally knew something about it. When he was defending the city, the prince stayed on top of the city tower for three days. This was the root of the disease that occurred at that time. As a result, his body and bones were not in good condition. Whenever he caught a cold, he would...
I have a fever, and tonight, alas, I don’t know how long I will wait.”
Zeng Liangdi was a little surprised: "The prince still defended the city?"
Hu Liangdi said: "Not only that, when we were defending the city, our great-grandson was also on the tower. The prince held up his grandson, who was less than two months old, and said that he would defend the city and live and die with the soldiers. It was almost
It frightened the Crown Princess and others."
Zeng Liangdi exclaimed: "Oh my God, there are times when the Crown Prince is so brave."
Su Wenyan listened silently and suddenly remembered some things from the past.
That year when we were guarding the city, she was actually there.
Right in that city.
It turned out that the child she saved back then was Cen Jinxu.
If they hadn't told her, she would have almost forgotten about it.
"What are you talking about? You can discuss things in the palace. Hu Liangdi, please be careful what you say about the current situation."
Everyone heard the sound and looked to see that it was the grandson's concubine who was talking.
Beside her, stood the grandson and concubine.
Taisun glanced over and first saw Su Wenyan, who looked a little confused.
Hui Liangdi went up the two steps and walked to Cen Qixu's side.
"Your Highness, how is the prince? My legs are almost numb from standing. If I continue to stand, my stomach will protest."
Cen Jinxu hummed.
"Hui Liangdi is feeling heavy, so please go back first."
Hui Liangdi beamed with joy, knowing that this was a grace given to her by His Highness.
For a moment, everyone was a little envious.
Zeng Liangdi also felt cold, but she did not have the good fortune to go back early with the baby in her belly.
Just as he was envious, the grandson said again.
"You all should go back, Su Chenghui stays. Tonight, you will stay in the East Palace instead of the Grand Concubine."
Su Wenyan saluted: "Yes."
The prince's illness did not improve until dawn.
The room was full of servants, the Crown Princess was there, and Concubine Guo did not leave either.
The Crown Princess took a nap and leaned against the bed. When she woke up, she was a little absent-minded, and she was only worried about the Crown Prince's condition.
Su Wenyan supported her and handed her the medicine bowl.
"Concubine, hold on tight."
The princess regained consciousness and saw that she was serving.
"Why is it you, Concubine Taisun?"
"Your Highness asked them all to go back. Concubine, the medicine is ready. Please let the prince take it."
The Crown Princess took the soup bowl, asked the palace servants to help the Prince stand up, and personally gave the Prince medicine.
The prince was unconscious. Halfway through taking the medicine, he muttered something.
"Yinyang City must not be lost. Take Gu's son out. How many soldiers and horses are there? How many soldiers and horses are there!"
Yin Yang City.
The princess was shocked that he had dreamed about something that happened so long ago.
The prince's nightmare, the prince's concubine has no owner, and a bowl of medicine is about to be spilled. Su Wenyan reaches out to hold the bowl of medicine soup in her hand.
"Returning to the Crown Prince, His Highness has been taken out. There are still more than 500 soldiers and horses available in the city. His Highness's reinforcements are coming soon. You must hold on."
"Five hundred, there are five hundred more, okay, okay..."
The prince gradually relaxed his hold, and the crowd became quiet.
Su Wenyan slowly fed the medicine in her hand into his mouth.
After a bowl of medicine went down, Su Wenyan ordered the palace officials to lay the prince down and cover him with a quilt.
The Crown Princess had recovered from the shock and looked at Su Chenghui next to her, her eyes gradually becoming complicated.
After some service, the Crown Princess changed her clothes in the palace, and Su Wenyan waited on her to change her clothes.
The princess lowered her head and asked her.
"Why do you know the details of that night? You just called the Crown Prince... How do you know that there were more than 500 soldiers and horses in the city that night?"
Because the remaining five hundred soldiers and horses were brought by her.
She protected the Crown Princess, who was still the Crown Princess at that time, and the baby in her arms and left the Beicheng Tower.
At the critical moment, the Crown Princess handed the infant baby directly to her.
He turned around and returned to the city wall.
Su Wenyan clearly remembered everything that happened that night.
"I was told by my grandmother. My grandmother said that there was an aunt in my family who was doing business in Yin Yang. She was the one who sent the troops that night and saved a prince. Now that I think about it, she saved the prince at that time.
Your young prince turns out to be Your Highness."
The Crown Princess looked surprised.
He lowered his voice.
"The senior that night was your aunt."
Su Wenyan nodded and responded, "Exactly."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is awake!"
There was a call from the palace servants, and Su Wenyan breathed a sigh of relief.
**
The illness that the prince is suffering from is not a small one.
Su Wenyan waited in the house for two days, and it was the grandson's turn a few days later.
On the seventh day of service, the prince's illness did not improve.
Not long after I woke up that day, I fainted again and never woke up again.
The Crown Princess was feeling depressed day by day. Su Wenyan and Hu Liangdi came to the main hall to check on the Crown Prince's condition. When they entered the room, they saw Concubine Guo crying with her handkerchief covered.
Su Wenyan knew that the prince's condition might have become serious again.
Cen Jinxu also frowned and put one hand on both sides of his forehead. The atmosphere in the room was solemn.
Su Wenyan went outside to look at the decoctions the prince was using, and asked the imperial doctor for a while.
During the short period of questioning, I heard some noise in the room.
Leaving the imperial doctor behind, Su Wenyan half-stepped into the palace and saw a panic in the palace.
The princess was furious and threw a piece of jade Ruyi at Hui Liangdi.
Hui Liangdi was kneeling on the ground, her hair was messy, and she looked frightened.
The Crown Princess stood up from the coffee table and pointed at her.
