Chapter 461 Restraint

Yuan Yuye instigated the prince not to be constrained by the queen and the queen mother, and decided to choose his nephew as his son-in-law.

The prince was not that decisive.

He got angry and dared to fight against the queen, even speaking ill of evil words.

But after calming down, he had to consider the consequences.

Yuan Yuye could ignore it. He is not the queen's son or the queen's grandson, so he does not need to bear the charge of unfilial piety.

The prince cannot.

After hearing Yuan Yuye's words, the prince couldn't help but think in his heart: He has always praised his mentor, really think about him everywhere and help him with all his heart?

Or do you just want to rely on him to improve the status of the Yuan family and Yuan Yuye’s own official position?

This thought flashed through my mind and was quickly eliminated.

He could not bear to doubt his mentor. After so many years of relationships, he had gained the upper hand.

The prince is a person who is a little impulsive when encountering things, but will be indecisive and cares about the past and behind the scenes.

Therefore, Princess Yongchun’s marriage is unresolved.

The prince pondered for a moment, but decided to test the Queen Mother's meaning when he went to Renshou Palace to pay homage tomorrow, and see if the Queen Mother's tantrum was the result of the Queen's promise to pay great benefits.

On the other hand, he also sent someone to inquire about who the queen met and what she did today.

Soon, the prince heard that the queen invited Peng Leyi from the Imperial Hospital to give him some medical treatment today.

The prince immediately ordered: "Let Peng Ti come to the East Palace to speak."

The eunuch took the order and went to Pengti's house to announce the order.

Peng Tidian was also shocked.

He had already lay down to rest.

The second update was over. The prince summoned him at this time, and it must be an urgent matter. Peng Ti lit up the fire and put on his clothes quickly, asked the little medicine boy to carry the medicine box, and followed the eunuch from the Eastern Palace, and the wind rushed into the palace.

On the way, Peng Leyi also asked the eunuch: "Which noble man is uneasy?"

The prince’s pulse case was managed by Dr. Zhong.

Usually, the prince had a headache and fever, so he didn't invite Peng Leyi.

However, the Crown Princess and two partial concubines in the Eastern Palace were both under the control of the pulse case.

He didn't know who was sick for a moment.

"No one is uneasy. It was the prince who asked Lord Peng to speak." The eunuch glanced at Peng Leyi, and then said reluctantly.

Peng Leyi secretly scattered a silver ingot into the hands of the eunuch.

The eunuch weighed it, about five liang, and it was hidden under his sleeves without any trace, and whispered: "I don't know what the prince calls the prince. The prince just came back from Kunning Palace and saw the queen..."

Peng Leyi knew it in his heart.

The prince must ask the Queen's illness.

Peng Leyi was a little nervous. After he came back, he thought about it for a long time, but he still didn't know the cause of the Empress. When the prince asked later, how should he answer?

Could it be that, "I don't know"?

As a point of view of the Imperial Hospital, the word "not know" is the most taboo.

Peng Leyi was in a state of sarcasm. He followed the eunuch from the East Palace and entered the palace gate.

It is the end of July now. There is no moonlight. The night is shrouded in it, like a piece of ink that cannot be cut, wrapping the world.

The light of the bright corner lamp cannot melt in the thick night, and is soon swallowed up by black, unable to illuminate the place in a small area.

Peng Leyi remembers that it was cool just now and the breeze was gentle. Why did it get hotter now?

Is it going to rain or his own state of mind?

The lantern at the entrance of the East Palace shines the marble tan to make people see.

Peng Leyi entered the Eastern Palace and paid homage to the prince.

The prince changed his casual clothes.

His mentor Yuan Yuye also left the palace.

When he saw Peng Leyi, the prince was kind and smiled and said, "I brought Peng Ti to the palace so late because I really couldn't let go of my mother. I heard that Peng Ti Ting was treating the Empress today. What is the cause of the disease?"

That's what the prince said when he met.

He was straight to the point.

It was already late at night, and the prince didn't want to deal with Peng Leyi around the bush.

Peng Leyi knelt down to the prince and kowtowed three times.

This made the prince stunned.

After Peng Leyi kowtowed, he told the prince all the time about Empress Tan's illness: "...When Weichen entered the palace, the Empress was half fainted and half asleep. Weichen didn't know what she was like when she had an attack. What Weichen said was all the words of Aunt Sun of Kunning Palace."

The prince did not speak.

His thick eyebrows were furrowed.

Peng Leyi looked at the prince's face, paused, and continued, "...The Empress Dowager said, let me go in again tomorrow morning to ask the Empress for the pulse."

The prince came back to his senses and asked Peng Leyi: "The Empress is sick, does the Empress Dowager know?"

Peng Leyi nodded and said, "I know, the Empress Dowager was in Kunning Palace at that time..."

The prince was thinking a little.

When he saw the queen just now, the prince seemed to understand something.

"What is the disease of the Empress?" the prince asked Peng Leyi.

Peng Leyi calmed down and said with difficulty: "Crown Prince, I don't know..."

The prince suddenly looked up, looked at Peng Leyi, and asked back, "Don't you know?"

Peng Leyi's face looked ugly.

He answered truthfully: "Weichen took the pulse for the Empress. She was so crazy. If it weren't for the phlegm and her heart were confused, she would have been restless. But weichen looked at it and did not have these diseases, so we really didn't know..."

"Did you see the queen go crazy?" asked the prince.

Peng Leyi was slightly stunned.

He didn't.

He listened to Aunt Sun's retelling.

Peng Leyi answered truthfully, saying: "No."

The prince began to ponder. He stood up and paced back and forth in the hall, thinking about something.

Every time he took a step, Peng Leyi's heart speed increased a little.

Peng Leyi was so nervous that his forehead was sweating, and he was a little too stuffy to get out of touch.

Suddenly, a dazzling and bright lightning flashed into the hall. Peng Leyi was shocked, and then he heard the rolling thunder.

The thunder rumbled across the sky.

The prince was also shocked to his senses, looked outside, and muttered, "Is it going to rain? The weather was still fine just now."

Seeing that Peng Leyi was still standing in a hurry, the prince said, "You go back first. Don't get wet in the rain."

Peng Leyi was reluctant to leave, so he hurriedly bowed and said he was leaving.

The prince did not sleep well all night.

The lightning and thunder outside became more and more intense. In a moment, there were stone-like raindrops that slammed heavily on the glazed tiles of the inner hall of the Eastern Palace, like big beads falling on the jade plate, noisy.

The prince's thoughts were also interrupted.

The Crown Princess Li came in and said, "Crown Prince, it's almost three o'clock, are you going to rest?"

The prince then entered the inner hall to rest.

He couldn't sleep, and the Crown Princess was afraid of the court affairs, so she didn't dare to ask about it, and she didn't dare to sleep with her.

"...Tomorrow morning, go to Kunning Palace to pay tribute to your mother. Don't worry about coming back. Peng Tidian will go to see her mother. Then you stay and serve her and listen to what Peng Tidian said." The prince suddenly said in the brocade tent.

He knew that the Crown Princess hadn't slept either.

The Crown Princess hurriedly said yes.

"The Empress Dowager will also go to see the Empress Dowager's face. You should also look at the Empress Dowager's face and tell me when you come back. Be more careful." The Prince said again.

The Crown Princess was full of confusion. Finally asked: "What is the illness of the mother? Why do you need to look at the Empress Dowager's face?"

"You go and see it tomorrow." The prince said.

Then he turned over and slept with his back to the crown princess, not paying attention to her anymore.
