If the imperial physician diagnoses the Third Prince as poisoned, everyone present will be investigated.
With a creaking sound as the door opened, the imperial physician rushed over.
The imperial physician looked at the rosy-cheeked Third Prince and asked curiously, "Third Prince, I've heard that you..."
The Third Prince said, "It's not that serious. I just ate too much cold food. I'm fine now."
Imperial Physician: "Let this old minister examine your pulse again."
The third prince calmly sat down and extended his arm.
As a prince, the Third Prince was of very high character.
Faced with such a situation, he not only remained calm and composed, but also assessed the situation and protected everyone. His magnanimity is truly admirable.
The reason why the Third Prince was able to openly allow the imperial physician to diagnose him was because he trusted Qiuqiu.
If Qiuqiu says it's cured, then it must be cured.
Moreover, he felt that his body had fully recovered.
The imperial physician carefully took the patient's pulse.
Everyone else watched the imperial physician nervously.
Xu Ruyun: "Imperial Physician, how is the Third Prince's health?"
The imperial physician said, "Just as Your Highness said, he is now out of danger. But the messenger who came to announce our arrival said..."
The imperial physician hesitated, as if he wanted to speak but then stopped.
Everyone knew what he was going to say.
The messenger must have said something like, "The prince has been poisoned and is on the verge of death. If we had arrived any later, he would not have survived."
The Third Prince said, "They're just too nervous. I'll give them a good scolding later."
Imperial Physician: "It's good that you're alright. This old minister was in a hurry on the way, worried about Your Highness's health, and even tripped and fell a few times."
Third Prince: "Physician Chen, you've worked hard!"
Xu Ruyun quickly slipped a few gold ingots into the imperial physician's sleeve, then whispered to him, "I'm troubling you, Imperial Physician! Please buy some nutritional supplements to help you recover!"
The imperial physician accepted the gold with a smile and said, "Madam Xu, you're too kind!"
A troublemaker nearby asked the imperial physician incredulously, "Imperial Physician Chen, tell me the truth, is the Third Prince truly alright?"
Physician Chen: "Of course. I guarantee with my life that the Third Prince is in good health. What? What are you expecting?"
Physician Chen turned the tables on the man, and he stopped provoking him.
"Naturally, we hope the prince will be safe and sound."
Imperial Physician Chen: "That's good! As long as we, as subjects, have no disloyal intentions, that's good!"
"No, no!"
Xu Ruyun smiled and saw off the imperial physician and all the guests before finally letting out a long sigh of relief.
Xu Ruyun and her sons were talking together behind closed doors.
Xu Ruyun: "Today's events were too risky!"
Qi Junzhou: "Yes, why don't we send the Third Prince away? Staying here is really a headache."
Qi Junlin: "Third brother, watch your words!"
Qi Junxian: "That's right, how can we drive him away if he won't leave? He's a prince!"
Xu Ruyun: "That makes sense. However, Zhou'er remained calm and composed today, managing the situation well. He has made great progress. I am truly impressed."
Qi Junzhou smiled shyly: "Really? Thank you for the compliment, Mother."
The Third Prince was pulling Qiuqiu aside and asking her all sorts of questions.
"Are there many fish in that stream outside the city? I'd like to go play there too. How about you take me with you, Chiu Chiu?"
Chiu Chiu thought for a moment, then shook her head.
"You think we're not dying fast enough? What if we cause trouble after we get out? I'd like to keep this little head of mine for a few more years."
Third Prince: "I heard that a certain place in the city makes really delicious osmanthus cakes. Why don't we go out and eat them together tomorrow?"
Chirp was drooling and looked a little hesitant.
The Third Prince said, "I also know a restaurant that serves absolutely superb food. Shall I take you there to try it tomorrow?"
Chiu Chiu swallowed hard, thought for a moment, and then firmly shook her head.
The Third Prince said, "Also, I heard there's a dessert shop that makes absolutely delicious desserts. It would be such a shame if you didn't go."
The Third Prince sighed with feigned regret, then stole a glance at Qiuqiu.
Chiu Chiu is still a child and her mind is not mature.
Finally, she couldn't hold on any longer and looked at the Third Prince, nodding earnestly.
The Third Prince happily picked up Qiuqiu.
"Great! Okay, okay, I'll buy you all the good food tomorrow!"
Chiu Chiu was also amused by the Third Prince and kept giggling.
Actually, the Third Prince had his own ulterior motives in asking Qiuqiu to go with him.
Before leaving the palace, his father and mother repeatedly told him not to leave Qiuqiu's home.
If you really have to go out, be sure to bring Qiuqiu with you.
Chiu Chiu is his talisman and amulet.
As long as Qiuqiu is with him, his life is safe.
While everyone here is happy and joyful, Qi Jia and Jin Lan are in a terrible predicament.
Jinlan first experienced unbearable abdominal pain.
Subsequently, her lips, face, and the skin all over her body turned black.
Xiao Zhenzhen anxiously searched everywhere for a doctor.
However, the doctors they consulted could not find the cause of the illness after taking the pulse.
Many medications were prescribed, but they had no effect on Jinlan after she took them.
Qi Jiating had just returned home when he heard Xiao Zhenzhen screaming in anguish, "Why are you only coming back now? Don't you know our daughter is sick? Have you been fooling around outside?"
Looking at Xiao Zhenzhen's ferocious face, Qi Jiating was filled with endless emotions.
If he hadn't divorced Xu Ruyun, how happy his family would be right now.
Every time he came home, Xu Ruyun would prepare a delicious hot soup for him.
However, Xiao Zhenzhen was full of accusations and complaints every time he came home.
This comparison immediately reveals the difference in their levels of understanding.
Xiao Zhenzhen yelled at Qi Jiating, "Where have you been? Why are you coming back so late? Are you seeing someone else?"
Qi Jiating sighed helplessly and said, "Where did you go? Do you really want to know?"
Xiao Zhenzhen said through gritted teeth, "You'd better tell the truth, or I won't let you off the hook!"
Qi Jiating: "You want to hear the truth, don't you?"
Feeling she had the upper hand in the interrogation, Xiao Zhenzhen pressed on relentlessly, saying, "Of course. Tell the truth!"
Qi Jiating: "Others know that my son has been promoted by the Emperor, so they invited me to drink and celebrate."
Xiao Zhenzhen: "You're lying! When was Gao Ming promoted?"
Qi Jiating: "I have more than just Gao Ming as a son. The one people are celebrating for me is Junzhou, who was promoted by the Emperor to Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review. Shouldn't we celebrate that?"
Xiao Zhenzhen became even angrier after hearing this. She roared, "Get out—get out of here! Go find that woman!"
After listening, Qi Jiating left without looking back.
Xiao Zhenzhen was even more heartbroken after seeing Qi Jiating leave. She buried her face in her arms on the table and wailed, "I told you to leave, and you really left! You didn't actually go to see that woman, did you? You heartless bastard! Waaah..."
Qi Gaoming was about to greet his father when he saw him return, but instead overheard them arguing.
Qi Gaoming felt a mix of inferiority and jealousy: "Why?! Why that kid?!"
Jinlan was in excruciating pain on the bed, and she couldn't care less about her parents' commotion.
Now, she can hardly even protect herself.
She didn't even know if she could get through the night, so she had no interest in worrying about the adults' jealousy and rivalry.
