...There was an assassination incident. Although the nobles were not harmed and it was just a false alarm, blood was still shed.
This birthday banquet has to be cancelled.
Chen Lianhe, Xun Nian Nian and others moved to a palace nearby, while the others all dispersed.
Before the imperial physician arrived, Zhu Yunlu simply treated Chen Lianhe's wound.
While treating the wound, Zhu Yunlu's expression suddenly became strange.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Xun Niannian, who was standing by, noticed the abnormality on Zhu Yunlu's face at the first time and asked nervously.
Zhu Yunlu seemed to be hesitant to speak, and his eyes became somewhat solemn.
Emperor Qingxi also noticed something was wrong at this time. His eyes narrowed and he asked, "But is the Sixth Elder seriously injured?"
Zhu Yunlu finally stopped hesitating and replied, "The Sixth Prince's injury is not serious, but...but the weapon is poisonous. I am not very good at detoxification, so I can't tell what the poison is."
"What? He was poisoned?!" Emperor Qingxi frowned instantly and looked at Chen Lianhe worriedly.
Then he turned to a eunuch not far away and said, "Gao Shen, hurry up and urge the imperial physician to come and ask them to send someone who is good at detoxification."
The eunuch responded and quickly left.
Not long after he left, people from the Imperial Hospital arrived.
The people who came were Zhu Haizhang, the director of the Imperial Medical Bureau, and a younger imperial physician. The imperial physician was handsome, and Xun Niannian couldn't help but take a second look at him.
Of course, it was just one more glance. She was worried about Chen Lianhe now, so how could she have any other thoughts?
"Your servant Zhu Haizhang/Your servant Zhong Changxuan pays homage to His Majesty. Long live the emperor! You pay homage to the Empress Dowager. May the Empress Dowager live a thousand years, a thousand years, and a thousand thousand years!"
The two of them stepped forward and performed a standard kneeling ceremony with the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.
"Stand up, let the sixth brother take a look." Emperor Qingxi didn't say anything else, and urged them to check on Chen Lianhe's injuries.
Having just learned that Chen Lianhe was not only injured but also poisoned, the worry in Emperor Qingxi's eyes was real.
It can be seen that Emperor Qingxi values this son from the bottom of his heart.
Xun Nian Nian couldn't help feeling a little strange.
The empress had no son, and Chen Lianhe's mother was a noble concubine at the time. After her death, she was posthumously named imperial noble concubine, whose status was second only to the empress.
Although the position of crown prince has been vacant for many years, given the emperor's esteem for Chen Lianhe, as well as Chen Lianhe's ability and reputation outside, and the strength of his in-laws, it is not impossible for him to be made crown prince one day.
Why would Chen Lianhe do such a treasonous thing as seeking power and usurping the throne?
Even if he was instigated by Prince Zhennan, he shouldn't have rebelled so easily!
How dangerous this kind of thing is!
And the Prince of Zhennan, he should know that if this thing fails, it will be a capital crime punishable by death!
Although Emperor Qingxi was not too old, only in his forties, his health was not very good. He might not be able to survive in a few years.
Xun Nian Nian thought that if she were Chen Lianhe or Prince Zhennan, she would never take the risk of seizing power and usurping the throne under such circumstances.
With so many favorable conditions for you, why would you take the risk?
Are you looking for excitement because your life is too comfortable?
Thinking of this, Xun Niannian couldn't help but frown slightly. Could there be some hidden story behind this?
"What's the matter? What kind of poison did the Sixth Brother get poisoned with? Can it be cured?" When Xun Nian Nian was thinking, the anxious and worried voice of Emperor Qingxi sounded in her ears again.
Xun Niannian came back to her senses and looked nervously at the two imperial doctors who were busy at the bedside, waiting for their answers.
