Chapter 76 Yongzheng's Concubine Li 6

Yinzhen frowned. How could this be related to the Song family? Wasn't the Song family timid and cowardly, never leaving the courtyard? What could she do?

"Although I was on guard, I still saw her sneaking into the Fu Jin's courtyard this afternoon. I wanted to follow her secretly to see what she was doing, but Fu Jin came back.

I was afraid that Fu Jin would suspect me of having any ill intentions, so I didn't tell Fu Jin about this. After all, ever since I gave birth to Yu Yao and Hong Yu, Fu Jin's attitude towards me has become increasingly hostile.

"Ms. Song went to Fu Jin's place? Did you see what she did?"

"No, I just vaguely saw something in her hand, but I couldn't see it clearly."

"Okay, I trust you, Li. Don't let me down."

"Don't worry, my Lord. Heaven and earth can witness my feelings for you."

Yinzhen didn't expect Mu Sili to say this suddenly, and his face turned red instantly.

She is already a mother of two children, why is she becoming more and more unstable? She speaks so frivolously, what should people do if they hear her?

"I understand. I'll go check on Fu Jin and come over later to have dinner with you. Please clean up what needs to be cleaned up. I've already prepared the courtyard for you."

"Thank you for your kindness, Master."

After leaving, Yinzhen went directly to Fu Jin's place. He originally thought that he would see a scene of loving mother and filial son there, but who would have thought that as soon as he entered, he would see Fu Jin scolding Honghui.

"Honghui, you are the eldest son and have a noble status, how can you always think of going to play with Hongyu, that illegitimate son?

Mother has told you many times that if you want to inherit your father's title in the future, you can't just think about playing around, you have to study hard.

Hongyan is just a concubine's son. He can play as much as he wants and his mother won't care. But you are different. You are the legitimate son. Only if you work harder can your father like you more.

And if you start studying now, you will definitely be more knowledgeable than your peers when you are six years old. Then not only will your father like you, but your mother will like you too."

"Mother, I'm tired and want to play with my brother."

"No, I have arranged for you to learn the Three Character Classic today. You must study it. You can only play after you have learned it. Mother will give you three days to memorize it all."

"Mother, my son is studying. Can you let him play for a while before studying? I promise I won't play for too long."

"No, come, keep an eye on the eldest prince, don't..."

"What do you mean by 'forbidden'? My son Honghui is less than two years old, and you are forcing him to study? I was only three years old when the Empress Dowager gave me my first education.

Do you think Honghui has reached the age where he has to study? Don't you know that he needs to eat well and sleep well to grow?

"I thought you were different, but I didn't expect that your usual love for Honghui was all fake. This is your true self, right?"

"Master? Why are you here? Why didn't anyone announce you?"

"This is my territory, why should I inform them? How can I hear what you said even if I let them inform you? I tell you, Honghui is still young, he should just relax and play. When he is old enough, I will arrange for him to study.

"Don't worry about Honghui's future schooling, Madam. You should think carefully about how to explain to me the murder of Honghui."

Fu Jin looked at him in disbelief. How did he know that she had attacked Hongyu? Didn’t she send people to deal with the family of Hongyu’s wet nurse?

"I'm curious how I knew this. Of course I looked it up. Tell me, what did Hongyan do to you that made you treat him like this?

If Li Shi hadn't discovered that Hongyu had been poisoned, would I have lost a son for no apparent reason?"

"No, I didn't mean to kill him. I just thought Honghui always wanted to play with him, and I was afraid he would lead Honghui astray, so I asked the wet nurse to give him some medicine that would weaken his body.

I was thinking that if he got sick, Honghui wouldn't always play with him and could focus on his studies. Master, please believe me, everything I say is true."

Yinzhen just looked at him disappointedly. He thought that she didn't know that Song had been here before. Now he should check whether Song had hidden anything here.

"Su Peisheng, take someone to check and see if there's anything unusual."

"yes."

Fu Jin was puzzled. Honghui was the most tightly controlled position in her courtyard. How could there be anything unusual?

"Master, please look at this. How come I didn't remember that the eldest prince had a spinning top?"

When Yinzhen saw this spinning top, he intuitively felt that it was made by Concubine De at Song's request, because his sixth brother loved playing with spinning tops the most, and the spinning top in his hand was a gift from his sixth brother.

"Why is there a spinning top here? Honghui, tell me, mother, who gave it to you?"

"Song Gege gave it to her. She said her father made it secretly for her son and asked him to hide it and play with it when no one was around."

"Come here, ask the imperial physician to come and check it out. I want to know what's wrong with this spinning top."

"yes."

Doctor Zhao came to the prince's residence again. He had a hunch that he had been possessed by evil spirits recently, otherwise why would he always come to Yinzhen's place!

First it was Prince Hongyan, and now I’m afraid that Prince Honghui is also in trouble. It’s difficult. Being an imperial physician is too difficult.

"Doctor Zhao, please quickly check if there's anything wrong with this gyroscope. Then check on Honghui. I'm worried he's been poisoned too."

"yes."

Doctor Zhao carefully examined the top and found that it was contaminated with a chronic poison. Carrying and playing with it for a long time could easily lead to poisoning.

Once this poison enters the body, the person will become weak and die within a month. Most importantly, there is no antidote for this poison.

"Fourth Prince, this is stained with a chronic poison. I will first check Prince Honghui's pulse."

"good."

Yinzhen and his wife were both very worried about Honghui. Although Mu Sili was talking about Song secretly coming to his wife's yard today, he could not guarantee that the spinning top was given to Honghui today.

After taking the patient's pulse, Doctor Zhao breathed a sigh of relief. There was no sign of poisoning. It seemed that Prince Honghui had never touched this spinning top.

"Don't worry, Fourth Prince and Fourth Lady, Prince Honghui is fine."

"That's good. Since the poison is on the spinning top, will the person carrying it be poisoned?"

"Yes, as long as your hands come into contact with it, you will get some infection."

Su Peisheng touched his heart thankfully. Fortunately, he had been careful when he found the spinning top and wrapped it in a handkerchief before taking it. Otherwise, it would have been poisoned by now.

Looking at the relieved look on Doctor Zhao’s face, it seems that this poison is incurable and he almost died. It was such a close call!

"I understand, come, send Doctor Zhao."

"I'll take my leave."

Doctor Zhao took the reward and left. He wanted to go back and burn incense to pray that the Fourth Prince would not be allowed to come again the next time something happened in the courtyard.

"Fujin, considering our friendship over the years, I will not pursue the matter of you drugging Honghui. And don't force Honghui to study. When he turns three, I will personally teach him."

"I understand."
