When the three heard this, they couldn't help but laugh.
No words were spoken that night.
The next morning, Zhao Hao brought some freshly made cakes and went to the palace to visit Princess Yongning.
His schedule today is also quite full.
After meeting Princess Yongning, he also had to pay a visit to Prince Kang’s mansion.
Then I have to find time to meet Princess Li Ge.
Very busy.
However, when he entered Yuxiu Pavilion, Princess Yongning was not there, and the maid Xiaotao welcomed him in.
"My Lord, the princess has gone to His Majesty's Pepper Room."
"Since yesterday, His Majesty's illness seems to have worsened. The princess didn't come back last night!"
"Please wait a moment. I will go and tell Her Highness the Princess that you are here!"
Zhao Hao was about to say no and got up to leave, but after thinking about it for a while, he nodded.
"Sister Xiaotao, thank you very much!"
When Xiao Tao heard this, her face suddenly turned red and she quickly turned and left.
Zhao Hao sat in Yuxiu Pavilion and waited for nearly half an hour before Princess Yongning appeared with a tired look on her face.
Zhao Hao quickly stood up and went to greet him.
"Princess, I just heard from Xiaotao that His Majesty is ill? How is he now?"
Princess Yongning took a deep breath.
"My sister caught a cold before the Chinese New Year, and I thought she would be well in the next two days."
"But I didn't expect that since yesterday, the condition has not only not improved, but has worsened."
When Zhao Hao heard this, he frowned.
"How serious is it?"
"Can I go and see it?"
Princess Yongning glanced at him.
Shaked his head.
"My sister is coughing badly now. She didn't sleep much last night. The doctor just gave her some medicine and she is now barely able to fall asleep."
"Otherwise I won't be able to come back to see you!"
"Don't go over there!"
Zhao Hao nodded.
After a moment's hesitation, he asked, "Has your Majesty ever experienced this before?"
Upon hearing this, Princess Yongning couldn't help but look at him deeply.
Zhao Hao was stunned at first, then he quickly waved his hand and said, "Just pretend I didn't ask."
Princess Yongning reminded: "You are asking me, it's nothing, but in front of others, you must never say such words, otherwise you will be easily taken advantage of!"
Zhao Hao nodded.
"I understand. I wouldn't ask this question in front of other people."
Inquiring about the emperor's condition and medical history was absolutely not allowed.
This is the royal family's biggest secret.
Not to mention Zhao Hao, even important officials in the court could not be questioned.
Moreover, the imperial physicians who treated the emperor had to maintain complete confidentiality.
Even the slightest leak would be a serious crime punishable by confiscation of property and extermination of the entire family.
Because once this kind of thing gets out, it can easily be used by someone with ulterior motives to do something that no one could imagine.
"I don't have anything to do. I just came to see you. Seeing that you look so tired, I will leave first. You should have a good rest and don't tire yourself out!"
Feeling Zhao Hao's concern, Princess Yongning's tired brows relaxed and she nodded slightly.
Zhao Hao was about to leave, but after taking two steps, he stopped again.
"Princess, from what you said, His Majesty's illness seems to be similar to what I told you before, about my maid Xiaohong."
"If there is no improvement in a few days, you come and tell me, because I have developed a special medicine for that condition."
"Perhaps it will be useful to Your Majesty then."
"Of course, that's what I said, maybe your majesty will get better soon!"
"Okay, I'm leaving first!"
After saying that, Zhao Hao left Yuxiu Pavilion.
Looking at Zhao Hao's departing figure.
Princess Yongning sighed.
A deep worry appeared between his brows again.
She didn't speak too clearly to Zhao Hao just now.
In fact, Jiang Waner's condition is more serious than she said.
I have been coughing quite badly in the past two days.
Moreover, after the examination, Imperial Physician Xu Yun actually said that Jiang Wan'er's illness was similar to that of the maid named Xiaohong in the Zhao residence.
Almost identical.
Seeing Princess Yongning like this, Xiao Tao quickly asked in a low voice:
"Princess, I have prepared some hot water. Do you want to take a bath?"
Princess Yongning came to her senses and nodded.
After bathing and changing her clothes, she left her bedroom in a hurry and rushed to the Pepper Room without even having time to eat anything.
"Your Highness, why don't you take a rest?"
Seeing her coming, the chief steward, Eunuch Qu, hurried to greet her.
Princess Yongning asked softly, "Is your majesty still sleeping?"
Eunuch Qu nodded.
"Still sleeping. I feel much better after taking Doctor Xu's medicine."
"Your Highness, there will be a court meeting tomorrow. Regarding His Majesty's illness, please..."
"Do you want to invite Prince Kang to the palace?"
Given Jiang Wan'er's current condition, the grand court meeting would definitely not be able to proceed.
At this time, someone must communicate with the ministers to stabilize people's hearts.
And King Kang is the most suitable candidate.
Princess Yongning took a deep breath, pondered for a moment, and said, "Let's wait a little longer."
"When the royal sister wakes up, we will do whatever she says."
Jiang Wan'er's cough was indeed very severe, but it was not to the point where she was bedridden.
While the two were talking, a series of coughs were heard from the inner hall.
After looking at each other, the two hurriedly walked in.
Then I saw Jiang Wan'er sitting up coughing.
Princess Yongning and Eunuch Qu hurried over to help her up and placed a pillow behind her.
"Sister, how do you feel?"
Jiang Wan'er smiled slightly, then started coughing again.
"I feel much better after a good sleep!"
"Eunuch Qu, give me a glass of water!"
Upon hearing this, Eunuch Qu quickly poured a glass of water.
Jiang Wan'er was about to reach out to take it when she started coughing again.
Princess Yongning took the teacup and put it to Jiang Wan'er's mouth.
Jiang Wan'er took a sip and felt a little better.
Princess Yongning handed the teacup back to Eunuch Qu.
Jiang Wan'er took a deep breath, looked at Eunuch Qu and said, "Go and convey my order. Summon the Left Prime Minister, the Right Prime Minister, Prince Kang, and the Internal Secretary Zhao Wenxiang to the palace."
Upon hearing this, Eunuch Qu quickly agreed and turned away.
Princess Yongning said quickly, "Sister, the imperial physician said that you need to be nursed back to health for a while. You must not overwork during this period."
Jiang Wan'er smiled. Even though her condition had gradually worsened in the past few days, making her look a little haggard, she was still beautiful and charming.
The disease had no effect on her at all, but instead added a different temperament to her.
She stretched out her jade hand and gently stroked Princess Yongning's cheek.
Jiang Wan'er said, "Don't worry, my sister is fine. We can just postpone the court affairs for now."
Seeing her sister like this, Princess Yongning's worried heart finally calmed down.
Soon, the left prime minister Lu Liuliang, the right prime minister Xiao Danglu, Prince Kang, and the internal historian Zhao Wenxiang all arrived.
