Chapter 390 A Life Full of Flowers
When Niu Niu heard this, she could no longer suppress the sadness in her heart. The little girl felt a black screen in front of her eyes and she lost consciousness.
"Niuniu!" Li Xuan was the first to notice that something was wrong with her.
Shoukang Palace was suddenly in chaos.
The Queen Mother scolded the doctor harshly: "Didn't I ask you to examine her? My child is fine and healthy, how could she suddenly faint?"
The imperial physician was so frightened that he knelt down on the spot. He checked Niu Niu's pulse twice, and both times were different.
"Empress Dowager, the little girl from the Gu family seems to be suffering from a heart attack due to anger, but...but..." the imperial physician hesitated.
The Queen Mother was extremely anxious: "But what? Tell me quickly!"
The doctor said honestly, "But it doesn't look like a case of impatience. I can't explain it clearly at the moment. I need to look at it carefully a few more times."
The Queen Mother's eyes seemed to want to kill. She shouted at Li Shunfu, "Why are you still standing here like an idiot? Go to the Imperial Hospital and call all the doctors you can! Are you really going to rely on this mediocre doctor alone?"
The imperial physician was labeled a "quack", but he was not angry. Instead, he felt relieved. After all, his colleagues from the Imperial Medical Bureau had all come, so his responsibility was lightened.
Shoukang Palace was calling for help urgently, and the imperial doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau did not dare to be negligent. Soon, a room full of imperial doctors gathered in Shoukang Palace.
Such a big commotion naturally reached the imperial court, and the emperor hurried over as soon as he got the news.
"Mother, how is Niu Niu?" When the emperor asked this question, he turned his head to look at Concubine Shun. Seeing that Concubine Shun was safe, the emperor inevitably breathed a sigh of relief.
"There's nothing wrong with this child. She just became like this suddenly." The Queen Mother said casually, without mentioning the fact that Niu Niu was making a fuss about leaving the palace.
Firstly, even if it was brought up, the emperor would definitely not allow it. Secondly, if it was really said, the emperor would think that Niu Niu was ignorant.
The emperor sighed, frowned and said, "The Gu family is really in trouble. The adults outside the palace are having a hard time, and the children in the palace are suffering as well. I really don't know if the Gu family has offended some gods during this period."
When the Queen Mother heard this, her heart skipped a beat.
"Emperor, do you mean that the Gu family has been unlucky?"
The emperor shook his head and said, "I just said it casually. You can't take it seriously."
If we admit that Niu Niu is unlucky, then what does the child in Lady Luo's belly matter?
The Queen Mother asked, "Is it possible that someone is secretly using witchcraft to frame the Gu family?"
The emperor frowned: "No matter how great the hatred and resentment are, if you have such ability, why do you keep it to deal with a small Gu family?"
Gu Mingda now seems to be deeply favored by the emperor, but after all, he has been in office for a short time, his current official position is not high, and what he does is not particularly important. The emperor really does not think there is any need to target Gu Mingda.
Although Niu Niu is deeply loved by the Queen Mother in the palace, even if the Queen Mother is the most noble woman in the world, she is still just a woman in the harem. This little bit of pampering can at most bring some superficial benefits to Niu Niu. Why is she targeted to this extent?
The Queen Mother was thinking about the information she had obtained earlier. The Li family had close contacts with the Imperial Master's Mansion, and she didn't know what they were planning in secret.
The emperor said casually, "But speaking of it, this year is really an eventful time. Jingzhao Prefecture also came to report another important case today. Many children have been missing near the capital for unknown reasons recently."
The Queen Mother herself had no children, so she was filled with indignation when she heard this: "The children that their parents had waited so long for were lost so casually. This is really despicable! Emperor, you must instruct the Jingzhao Prefecture to thoroughly investigate the whereabouts of the children!"
The emperor nodded and looked at Niuniu again: "Don't worry, mother. I have already asked people to invite all the retired doctors in the capital to come here. Even Doctor Yan, I have sent people to Baiyun Town to invite him over."
When the Queen Mother heard him say this, she felt relieved and said, "It's not like she was angry. This child is really driving me crazy."
Concubine Shun hesitated for a while, but still said, "Empress Dowager, if you can't let Niuniu go home from the palace, why don't you send someone to invite Old Lady Gu and Madam Gu to the palace so they can accompany the child."
The Empress Dowager did not expect that Concubine Shun, a young and ignorant woman, would suddenly bring up the matter of Niu Niu leaving the palace at this time.
The emperor looked at the empress dowager in surprise.
Seeing that she could no longer hide it, the Queen Mother whispered what had happened today.
The emperor and the empress dowager made the same decision: "Niuniu cannot leave the palace, but I'm afraid we can't let the Gu family enter the palace either. Old Madam Gu was injured and is still unconscious, and Madam Gu is involved in a lawsuit. If we let her enter the palace at this time, I'm afraid people outside will think that our royal family is partial to each other, which will encourage unhealthy trends."
When Concubine Shun heard what the emperor said, she was extremely anxious. She had a vague premonition that Niu Niu's illness might only be cured if she was reunited with her family.
But just as she was about to open her mouth to plead with the emperor, the empress dowager gave her a warning look.
At this time in Guanju Palace, Li Zhaoyi drove all the servants out of the house, and only Miss Li San was left in the house.
"Okay, okay, as long as your father does what I say, our Li family will be able to maintain its wealth and prosperity for a hundred years." Li Zhaoyi said proudly.
Although Miss Li San also disliked Niuniu and even disliked Mr. Gu Mingda, she had also heard complaints from her family members and asked in a low voice: "Aunt, the Gu family is just a small family. How can they affect our family's status? Why do you have to target them like this?"
Li Zhaoyi looked at Miss Li San with contempt and said, "You are just a little kid, what can you understand?"
Seeing that she was unwilling to speak, Miss Li San did not ask any more questions and only said, "Aunt, almost all the doctors in the Imperial Hospital went to Shoukang Palace today. I don't know what happened there."
When Li Zhaoyi heard this, her eyes lit up: "Okay, okay, as long as this little troublemaker stays in the palace, we will pass this hurdle."
Miss Li San never knew where her aunt's confidence came from. Her aunt is still under house arrest and no one knows when she will be able to regain favor.
Li Zhaoyi had gone crazy enough. She felt that she had already won the battle, so she shouted to the outside: "Someone come!"
The waiter pushed the door open and came in, waiting respectfully for her instructions.
"Open the storehouse. I want to make new clothes and jewelry!" Li Zhaoyi was feeling very proud and wanted to dress up nicely.
Li Zhaoyi had been a noble concubine for many years and was the most favored in the harem. Even though she was now under house arrest and demoted, the emperor still sent people to inquire about her situation from time to time, so no one dared to neglect her supplies.
In her warehouse, there were mountains of good things, and Miss Li San felt her eyes were dazzled at just one look.
Li Zhaoyi looked at all these treasures with satisfaction. A fierce look flashed in her eyes, and she said to her niece, "People always strive for higher goals. It is worth it to live a life full of flowers and splendor, no matter how much it costs."
