Physician Zhang's hesitant words struck Cui Liu and the others like a thunderbolt, and everyone in the room began to shed tears.

Emperor Kangxi was also affected by the somber atmosphere. "Tell me what happened quickly."

Imperial Physician Zhang dared not keep her in suspense any longer, "It seems that the Imperial Concubine has dysentery."

Yinreng suddenly looked at Hongxi, and realized that the boy had indeed guessed right.

[Oh no, it really is that problem. What should we do? I wonder if Grandpa will ask the Western doctor at Ninth Uncle's house to take a look.]

When Emperor Kangxi heard about this illness, he was quite upset.

This is a deadly disease.

I thought she was just faking illness to win favor, but it turns out she was really sick.

It's this kind of life-threatening disease.

"Is there any way? Has the medicine been prescribed?" Kangxi asked somewhat incoherently.

"I have already prescribed a remedy, but this illness came on suddenly and is an acute condition for the Imperial Concubine. Whether she can be cured depends on fate."

After he finished speaking, all the palace servants in the hall began to weep softly.

Consort Wenxi treated the palace servants very well. Although she had a prince by her side, Emperor Kangxi would not allow Niohuru to become too powerful, so she had long given up the idea of ​​seizing the throne.

That's why she really didn't have any enemies in the harem.

Even the other concubines or their families in the palace had never planted spies in her palace.

"How could this be? You bunch of useless trash, you can't even cure dysentery, what use are you to me?"

When Emperor Kangxi was enraged, all the palace servants serving in his bedchamber knelt down to beg for forgiveness.

Yinreng knew that if he didn't speak now, it would be too late, so he could only tentatively say, "Father, I have heard that there is a very skilled doctor in the Ninth Prince's residence who has some good medicines."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Kangxi, without bothering to ask further questions, hurriedly sent someone to invite Yinzhen.

Yinzhen already knew what had happened on his way here. When he heard Yinreng say that there was a good doctor in his mansion, he immediately thought of that Western doctor.

So, as soon as he stepped into Bichun Pavilion, he said directly, "Your Majesty, there is a Western doctor in my residence. He has many Western medicines and can cure many of our difficult and complicated diseases."

Emperor Kangxi originally thought it was a highly skilled person living in seclusion, but he didn't expect it to be a Western doctor, so he immediately rejected it.

“No. How can a dignified imperial concubine be treated by a Western doctor? Their medicine is nowhere near as good as ours.”

When Yinzhen saw that Kangxi refused so quickly, he subconsciously looked at Yinreng, only to see that the other party just shook his head helplessly and did not say anything more.

At this time, Physician Zhang's medicine had been prepared, and Cui Liu personally fed it to him, while Kangxi and the others waited in the outer room.

Seeing that the two children looked nervous, Yin Tang felt a little sorry for them and said, "Uncle Jiu will take you to the courtyard outside to see the flowers."

Hongyu glanced at Hongxi, and seeing that the other nodded, he took her hand and followed Yinzhen to the garden.

The name Bichun Pavilion sounds a bit stingy, but the courtyard actually covers a very large area, second only to Yanbo Palace.

Therefore, the landscape design within the courtyard is exquisite.

In the past, the two children would have been running around happily, but the tense atmosphere inside the hall today also affected their mood.

"Ninth Uncle, will the Imperial Concubine be alright?" Hongyu asked first.

Yin Tang didn't know how to answer.

In this day and age, being poisoned is better than getting dysentery.

But what can he say in front of his child?

"It should be alright, right?"

Yin Tang was somewhat conflicted.

The doctor in his household was indeed quite skilled. In addition to treating the masters and servants of the household, it was said that his Western medicine had also been used to treat many of the servants.

But this time, it was the Imperial Concubine who fell ill, and it was also Yin'e's mother. As her brother, he didn't know what to do.

Just as he was lost in thought, he felt his sleeve being tugged. Looking down, he saw it was Hongxi.

Yinzhen picked up the chubby boy and asked, "Hongxi, are you tired? Shall I carry you, Uncle Jiu?"

Hongxi first shook his head, then nodded, and under Yinzhen's questioning gaze, he said, "Please save the Imperial Concubine."

Yinzhen's eyes instantly stung with tears. He immediately looked at Sixi and ordered, "Quickly go back to the manor and bring Aoqi here."

"Wait, tell him about what happened here. If there are any medications for treatment, bring them with you."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will take care of it immediately."

The affair involving Consort Wenxi caused such a stir that it quickly spread throughout the imperial palace.

When the Crown Princess arrived with her entourage to visit, the other concubines also arrived one after another.

Emperor Kangxi was annoyed by the large number of people and waved his hand to signal everyone to go back, but he kept the Crown Princess and Consort Fu behind.

"Consort Fu, Yin Tao is still in Yanbo Zhishuang Palace. I arrived in a hurry and didn't bring him with me. Go and pick him up later."

Consort Fu dared not complain. It was already good enough that Kangxi still remembered that there was such a child. After responding, seeing that Kangxi was not in the mood to speak anymore, she took her leave with the palace maids.

Guarjia looked at Yinreng with some confusion, only to find that he kept his eyes down, deep in thought, and didn't even glance at her.

She didn't know why Kangxi had kept her around; surely he couldn't expect her to take care of Consort Wenxi?

As he was lost in thought, Kangxi looked at Guarjia and said, “The matter of Consort Wenxi’s dysentery came suddenly. If it was just an accident, then so be it. But if someone is behind it, I will not let them off the hook.”

Guarjia was taken aback. Was Kangxi suspecting her?

Just as he was about to kneel down to plead his innocence, he heard Kangxi continue, "I entrust this matter to you. You must investigate it thoroughly and find out the truth. If it involves any conspiracy, no matter who that person is, you can boldly tell me. Even if you only have a suspect, you must tell me."

Guarjia immediately accepted the order, saying, "Your subject will certainly handle this matter well."

Yinreng then looked up at Guarjia and, unusually, offered words of reassurance, "Don't be afraid, go ahead and investigate with confidence."

Guarjia felt a warmth instantly spread through her heart.

Emperor Kangxi asked her to investigate so that she could use this opportunity to establish her authority.

Yinreng's decision to have her investigate indicated that he would be her strongest support.

Without delay, Guarjia went directly into the inner palace and began questioning the palace maids who served her closely.

Seeing that Guarjia's movements were swift and efficient, Kangxi was somewhat satisfied. He sat there calmly, showing no intention of leaving.

Yinreng stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I will take the two children back to Yanbo Palace first. The Crown Princess can handle things here."

Kangxi nodded, watched the Crown Prince leave, and then closed his eyes and remained silent.

The matter was investigated quickly, and by evening someone came to invite Yinreng.

When Yinreng reappeared at Bichun Pavilion, he noticed that Guarjia's face was pale and her gaze was filled with tension and unease.

"Your subject greets Your Majesty." Yinreng first paid his respects to Kangxi, who nodded indifferently, glanced at the kneeling palace servant with an ambiguous expression, and asked, "Baocheng, do you recognize the person kneeling on the ground?"
